The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise
Chapter 7 Learning to do business
Shen Jiarou got up early in the morning and went with the village chief to see his wife.
After saying hello to Uncle Zhong, I went with the old man to take a look around on the ox cart.
The autumn harvest season has passed and the fields are empty.
The uncle accompanying him seemed a little at a loss.
"Girl, I don't know how I can help you. Just tell me if you need anything. I will do my best to help you."
Shen Jiarou smiled when she heard this, and her heart moved slightly.
After strolling around for a while, they went to the town to buy some food and brought it to the old man's house.
Yaer was overjoyed to see her grandfather come back after not coming home all night.
"grandfather."
Yaer saw Shen Jiarou in front of her and called her "girl" softly.
Shen Jiarou nodded and went to the inner room with her things.
According to what the two discussed on the way, Yaer followed Shen Jiarou.
Because Yaer's grandmother's condition improved, the old man took the initiative to let Yaer go over to take care of her.
Yaer’s grandfather, or uncle, is called Sun Yuancheng, and her grandmother is called Wang Suxiang.
Shen Jiarou thought Yaer's name was a bit monotonous, so she asked the two elders what they thought about changing the name.
"Grandpa Sun, Ya'er will follow me everywhere in the future, and I want to change her name."
Logically speaking, she could have done it directly, but after all, they were familiar with each other, so she asked them first.
Grandpa Sun said it was up to Shen Jiarou to decide, and Grandma Sun had no objection, so Shen Jiarou began to think of a name for Yaer.
"Just call it a branch. It doesn't change your original name."
Yaer said silently in her heart, Zhiya, well, she liked this name.
Shen Jiarou saw her happy look and knew that she liked it.
"Ya'er, follow the girl well in the future, take good care of yourself, and take good care of the girl."
Grandpa Sun and Grandma Sun were very confident in letting Sun Yaer follow Shen Jiarou. That girl was capable of accomplishing things, and Yaer would not starve to death if she followed her.
People of this era are mainly concerned about having enough food and clothing, and believe that not dying of hunger is the best blessing.
Shen Jiarou took Yaer home first, and Grandpa Sun also followed her.
When the three of them came to the kitchen, Yaer and Grandpa Sun looked at it in surprise.
It's all meat, some dried and some semi-dried.
Shen Jiarou asked the grandfather and grandson to sit in the yard and rest first, and she went to the village to try her luck and borrow a cart from someone.
What a coincidence, she was able to borrow it.
"Brother Dashu, thank you."
Shen Jiarou was very happy, but then she thought that she might not be able to push the cart with her body.
Then he had no choice but to look at Brother Dashu helplessly.
"Brother Dashu, could you please help me deliver the cart to my house?"
Brother Dashu pushed the cart to Shen Jiarou's house with enthusiasm and kindness, which also laid the foundation for their future prospects.
Looking at the horse in Shen Jiarou's family, Dashu suggested harnessing the cart to the horse's back, which would make it more convenient to travel.
Shen Jiarou took the advice, and Brother Dashu and Grandpa Sun worked together to sort it out.
Shen Jiarou and Yaer packed up the pheasant, rabbit, fish and other dried meats, and put the medicinal herbs that they had prepared to sell into a backpack, planning to sell them in the town.
After putting all the items on the ox carts and horse carriages, everyone was in trouble again.
Grandpa Sun has his own ox cart, but she doesn’t know how to handle a horse carriage.
"How about I help you get the carriage over there?"
Brother Dashu was scratching the back of his head in a silly manner. Shen Jiarou thought he was very cute at that moment.
Then the four of them drove the ox cart and horse carriage to the town.
When they stopped at a house, Brother Dashu was stunned.
"Is this your house? When did you buy it?"
She is so young, how can she buy such a big house?
"Yes, I just bought it yesterday."
Seeing his surprised state, Shen Jiarou smiled faintly.
It was also the first time for Yaer to see such a big house, and her face was full of disbelief.
But the grandfather was with the girl the whole time, this cannot be false.
Yaer looked at her own girl with admiration. Shen Jiarou couldn't help but smile when she saw Yaer's admiring look.
"Okay, let's go in quickly."
But she was so tired. As soon as she stepped into the yard, Dashuge and Yaer looked at the whole house with bright eyes.
Yaer was very excited about being able to live here with the girl in the future.
"Girl, this place is really big and beautiful."
Shen Jiarou poured everyone a cup of cold tea to quench their thirst, and then Brother Dashu spoke.
"Yi Yi, I heard from Grandpa Sun that you also bought good farmland. If your family needs help in the future, you can call me."
I really didn't expect that what Grandpa Sun said was all true, but he was also happy for the girl Yi Yi.
When Shen Jiarou heard this, she thought that the rice in the fertile fields had been harvested and was now empty, which was a bit of a waste.
After some thought, I decided to plant potatoes.
"Oh, you really reminded me. My fields are now empty. After you said that, I thought of planting some potatoes or something, which would not be a waste. How about you come to my house to work, what do you think?"
When Brother Dashu heard this, he realized that he had just said it and it came up, so he immediately agreed happily.
"Yiyi, just tell me what you want me to do."
Shen Jiarou thought about it and then spoke.
"If we want to grow something nowadays, we must plow the fields first. The area is so large, and we need a lot of potatoes. How about you help me collect and purchase potatoes?"
Brother Dashu quickly agreed.
"Sure, rest assured, I will definitely help you. But how much do you plan to plant?"
Shen Jiarou asked tentatively, "Ten thousand pounds?"
When these words were spoken, the three people present were all shocked.
"Yi Yi, are you right, or did I hear it wrong?"
Brother Dashu was frightened by Shen Jiarou's powerful skills.
"That's right. One thousand kilograms of potatoes can cover 5-6 mu, and 60 kilograms can cover about mu. I have other plans for the rest."
It is not realistic to use so much land just to grow potatoes. It must have other uses.
Brother Tree leaves to collect potatoes.
Shen Jiarou thought that since she had good farmland and a shop, she should find a mother-in-law who could cook for her. After all, she would be exhausted if she had to cook every day.
Judging from Yaer's appearance, she doesn't know how to cook anything delicious. She makes money to improve her living standards, not to torture her stomach.
Seeing that it was almost evening and there was nothing to eat at home, Shen Jiarou took Grandpa Sun and Yaer to Manager Liu's restaurant for dinner.
When Shopkeeper Liu saw Shen Jiarou coming with a little girl, he hurried forward to greet them enthusiastically.
"Girl, what are you going to eat today?"
The two were old acquaintances, and their tone was very casual.
"Uncle Liu, you can do whatever you want. There are only three of us anyway."
Hearing Shen Jiarou's change of heart, Shopkeeper Liu was very happy and happily asked the waiter to go to the kitchen to serve.
Shen Jiarou, who was bored of waiting, was thinking about finding a cook for her family, so she asked Uncle Liu.
"Uncle Liu, my family is looking for a cook, do you have a suitable candidate?"
She trusted Manager Liu's character, so it was appropriate to ask him about this matter.
When Manager Liu heard this, he thought it was no problem. The girl's family was big, so it wouldn't be a problem to find someone to cook.
"Not yet, I'll keep an eye out for you."
After dinner, the three of them said goodbye to Manager Liu. Shen Jiarou brought some medicinal herbs to the medicine shop and also brought some food for the village chief and his wife.
"Uncle Village Chief, I brought some food, please eat something."
Yaer immediately helped to open the food. The village chief was touched that Shen Jiarou always cared about them. The lunch was delivered by the restaurant, saying that Shen Jiarou had specially asked for it.
As soon as Uncle Zhong saw her backpack, he knew there was something good.
He smiled and helped her take off the backpack. It looked quite large inside, so it might contain a lot of good stuff.
Shen Jiarou said something to Yaer, and then went to the inner room with Uncle Zhong. The medicinal materials this time were very good, and it just so happened that someone from the provincial capital came down to look for goods, so the price was naturally higher.
Shen Jiarou was very happy holding a stack of banknotes.
"By the way, Uncle Zhong, do you know the woman who cooks?"
When Uncle Zhong heard the village chief talk about Shen Jiarou buying a house, shop and land, he thought that it would not be a problem to find a cook for the big house.
"It's hard to find someone who is very skilled at cooking delicious dishes. We have a widowed sister-in-law in our shop. She has a hard life. Her husband passed away some time ago. If you don't mind, I can ask her if she is willing to work in your house?"
Being alone also has its advantages: it brings less trouble.
As Shen Jiarou and Uncle Zhong were talking, they came to the lobby, and Uncle Zhong pointed out the sister-in-law to Shen Jiarou.
"Sister Qin, I have a job, you can listen to it."
At this time, the woman called Mrs. Qin turned around and felt a little embarrassed when she saw that it was the shopkeeper calling her.
"Boss, I can do a lot of work, please don't chase me away, okay?"
If she can't stay here, she will really have no way to survive.
Uncle Zhong quickly interrupted Mrs. Qin's words.
"Sister Qin, you misunderstood. I am trying to find you a job that can shelter you from the wind and rain, where you can cook, wash clothes, clean, and so on at other people's homes."
Mrs. Qin finally stopped feeling uneasy upon seeing this and asked tentatively.
"Are you telling the truth?"
Uncle Zhong nodded, then turned slightly to allow Shen Jiarou to take a closer look at Mrs. Qin.
"Hey, this is your host. She's short of a cook."
After the discussion, Shen Jiarou took Yaer, Grandpa Sun, the village chief, and Mrs. Qin back to the house.
