Chapter 85 Zhao Silang wants to be the shopkeeper

Zhao Silang had never thought that one day he would be the manager of his second brother's dessert shop. As far as he knew, it was a shop that laid golden eggs. Even those who didn't know much about the business could calculate that the monthly income was no less than three taels of silver.

"Fourth brother, I plan to open another dessert shop in Qinghe County, and I'll leave the business here to you." Zhao Erlang said, "You spend most of the month traveling outside, which is not a long-term solution. The road has been unstable recently. Even if you follow the escort agency, you are still a little less safe. You need to step up your martial arts training."

"Brother, why are you suddenly..."

"Wu Biao is the former Captain Wu. He is doing very well in Qinghe County. Recently, he organized a Flying Tiger Team to go hunting in the mountains. He invited me to join the Flying Tiger Team. After careful consideration, I agreed."

Zhao Erlang said, "Xiaochun'er and Xiaoqiu'er, talent alone is not enough. If they want to join the Xuanwu Guard at the age of 5, in addition to the secret manual of cultivation, they also need elixirs and the consumption of high-level wild beasts. A pound of rabbits in the middle stage of Mingjin costs 9 coins on the market. I asked someone and found that children aged to can be promoted twice as fast as others if they eat more high-level wild beast meat during this period."

Zhao Silang said hesitantly, "The environment of the Ten Thousand Beast Forest in Qinghe County is harsh. Even at the level of Dark Power, there is no guarantee that you can escape unscathed every time."

"The greater the benefit you want to gain, the greater the risk you must take. I will cherish my life and will only walk around the periphery before my cultivation reaches the level of dark energy." Zhao Erlang said with a relaxed expression, "I have a shop and a field. My two children are studying and their tuition is waived by half. I heard that they can also refine the "Power Pill". My pressure is not as great as others imagine."

Zhao Silang was a little envious of his second brother. His nephews and nieces were smart and studious. They knew how to make money at a young age and their parents didn't have to worry about them at all.

"Fourth brother, there is one thing you need to be prepared for. Our father is soft-hearted and will probably leave Yang Yan's two sons in the village."

"What? The village chief won't agree."

"It's useless. Unless uncle can open the ancestral hall and divorce my mother, the Yang family will cling to the Zhao family like blood-sucking leeches."

Zhao Erlang sneered sarcastically, "It's a good thing that father and mother have a good relationship, but mother is the blood of the Yang family after all, and she is soft-hearted and easily bewitched... If mother asks, you can say that you didn't have enough money when you bought this shop, so the Gao family took half of the shares."

Zhao Silang thought about his mother-in-law Gao Lin's tough style and realized that the Yang family was no match for her.

"Big brother and fifth brother are both sons-in-law of the Liu family. Third grandfather and third grandmother will definitely protect them. You have to get closer to Ming Ge'er, at least in the next few years."

Zhao Erlang said, "Once I have established a firm foothold there, I will take you over. I don't believe that the Yang family can extend their hands to Qinghe County!"

Zhao Silang panicked and asked, "What if I leave the shop too?"

"Let Uncle Guang run it. He's almost 60 years old. Who in the village dares to mess with him?" Zhao Erlang said, "I asked Xiao Qiu'er. Uncle Guang has a long life ahead of him."

If Zhao Bei respected his elder brother Zhao Dong, he was completely afraid of his cousin Zhao Guang. Zhao Guang was beaten many times when the brothers were young, especially Zhao Bei, who was beaten the most.

Zhao Guang's son, eldest grandson, and second grandson all died in the army. He was a man of integrity throughout his life, but he lost two children before him. If it were someone else, he would have collapsed long ago.

Instead of collapsing, Zhao Guang raised his four great-grandsons to adulthood and became successful people. He was considerate of his grandson's wife who remarried and did not create any rift between the mother and son. He also frequently interacted with his great-grandsons' half-brothers and gave them generous gifts during the New Year and other festivals.

"Da da da", Zhao Silang drove the horse-drawn carriage on the road. Except for whipping the mule and horse twice on the day his wife gave birth, he was very kind to the horse at other times and would only urge it on. This horse was very smart.

Gaojiacun

Although Gao's father, Gao Yuan, is the younger brother of the village chief, it can only be said that his parents were too good at giving birth to sons. They gave birth to seven sons. The other five brothers were all capable of going out to make a living, but the third brother, Gao Yuan, had no other skills except farming.

Gao Yuan had three acres of paddy fields, three acres of dry fields and three acres of forest land. He and his wife Gao Lin had three sons and two daughters. All three sons were mediocre. Their only advantage was that they were self-aware and contented.

Mrs. Gao was very capable and clever. She was a female doctor and became a well-known midwife. Gao Di was lucky enough to marry a considerate husband and continued to live in her parents' home while giving birth to and raising children.

Eighteen-year-old Gao Dashan is going to get married after the Chinese New Year. Fifteen-year-old Gao Ershan and Gao Sanshan are twin brothers. They have been in the village private school for seven years and have now graduated and are looking for jobs.

Gao Yuan's family is very grateful to Xiao Chunya and Xiao Chunlin. Without Xiao Chunya's necklace, Xiao Gao would have been in great danger of having a difficult delivery.

Without Xiao Qiulin's help, Gao Yuan's family would continue to be deceived by Gao Cuilan.

Without Xiao Qiulin's help, Gao Yuan would not be able to buy potato seeds for the three acres of dry land. Everyone knew that Master Mingyue's farm had a large number of potatoes for sale, but without any connections, he could not even buy one kilogram, let alone the purchase limit of 200 kilograms.

The potato harvest was a bumper one, with 1200 kilograms of potatoes produced per acre. Although the price dropped to three cents per kilogram, they still made some money. Nothing could make the farmers happier than seeing the warehouses piled high with grain.

"Dad, will we continue to grow potatoes next year?"

"kind!"

"What should I do if I can't finish eating?"

"Eat hard! Don't you like to eat potatoes made into vermicelli?"

"I want to eat pastries."

"It will be there during the Chinese New Year, just bear with it for a few more days."

"There's nothing in the village during the New Year. It would be better if we lived in the county town."

The father and his two sons were daydreaming, and their dream came true. Zhao Silang came back and told them that he would take over the dessert shop in the city. The couple would definitely be too busy to take care of the baby and run the business, so he invited his father-in-law and mother-in-law to live in the county together.

"Brother-in-law, we're going to the county town too. We'll help you sell sugar water."

"No, what should I do if you all go to the county town?" Gao Dashan jumped up and down, "Everyone else can go, but my mother can't go."

"Brother, we all know how to cook except you. Is cooking harder than making pills?"

The three lively brothers were bickering, mocking and quarreling with each other. This is how real brothers should behave, just like Xiaochun and Xiaoqiu who often fight and play together and have a great relationship.

Two chubby kids, almost one year old, were practicing walking in the house. When they saw their three uncles fighting with each other, they started giggling.

"Little Tiger is laughing at you."

"Brother, you've made a mistake. The one wearing blue is Da Huzi. They changed their clothes today."
