The White-Bone Demon of the Farm is as rich as a country

When Lord Xie heard this, he knew that there was something else behind today's incident, so he asked someone to lead his followers to Manxiangzhai to bring Jia Dafa back for questioning.

However, the several people in charge here knew in their hearts that today's matter would probably be left unresolved. Which head of a family hasn't done some shady things behind the scenes? But as long as there is no evidence, no matter how many people say it, it will be useless. Although Jia Dafa's character may not be good, he still has some means.

Chu Ning'an also thought of these, but Ru Yue still had some hope.

As expected, Jia Dafa was brought to Tianxiang Tower and after a confrontation with a few thugs, it turned out that those people were taking revenge for personal gain. Not only was he innocent, he became a victim.

As a result, these ruffians became scapegoats and were caned thirty times. Unable to pay the fines, they were sent to the mines to work as free laborers for three months.

The matter was finally settled, and the result was as expected, but Ru Yue felt a little unhappy.

"Little girl, there is no need to be depressed about this. You just need to remember that good and evil will be rewarded in the end. It's just a matter of time." Mr. Lou Er is most familiar with Ru Yue. Perhaps because he is used to her optimistic and strong appearance, he can't bear to see her lonely and unhappy.

"Thank you for your help, sir. I was just confused for a moment. Don't worry, I'm fine."

Mr. Lou Er didn't say anything more, knowing that she was very insightful and that he would be able to figure it out as well. Ever since the first time he bought her fruit at Tianxianglou, he had been optimistic about this little girl, and now he was even more fond of her.

Seeing that Lord Xie and the others were free, Chu Ning'an hurried forward to greet them, "Thank you very much for handling this case impartially and clearing our name today. I have no way to repay you, so I can only thank you on behalf of my family." He bowed to the ground.

Lord Xie saw that he was a handsome man. Although he was wearing a linen shirt and shorts, his demeanor was extraordinary and could not be nurtured in the countryside. He asked him some relevant matters and looked at him with a favorable eye. He knew that this boy was no ordinary person and he also wanted to make friends with him.

He turned around and thanked Manager Tao and Mr. Lou Erye for their support, then stood with Ru Yue, bid farewell to everyone and left.

Three days later, a horse-drawn carriage sped past the village entrance, leaving behind a string of crisp hoofbeats. This also caused the villagers to be puzzled. The village had never seen a carriage before. Whose relative was this? How could he be so wealthy? It was not until the carriage passed through the village that everyone looked at each other in confusion and asked, "Is this going to the thatched hut at the foot of the mountain?"

The carriage was indeed parked at the gate of Ru Yue's courtyard. Ru Yue and her companions were busy drying fermented black beans. When they saw the visitor, they quickly let him into the courtyard.

"Little girl, this place is indeed peaceful and quiet. Even with a bowl of rice and a jug of water, and coarse linen clothes, you still look elegant and graceful." Master Lou praised solemnly.

"Thank you for your kind words, sir. It's just a temporary solution due to my poverty." Chu Ning'an hurriedly invited Mr. Lou to sit down, cut some fruit and served some smoothies.

"You don't have to underestimate yourselves. As the saying goes, don't look down on the poor young man. If you work hard, once you get the opportunity, it is only a matter of time before you become successful." Mr. Lou said this sincerely, which showed that he was not only comforting them, but also really thought so in his heart.

"Thanks to your good words, sir, we will definitely make progress. Wealth may 'sprout', but I firmly believe that poverty will not take root." Ru Yue said to Mr. Lou Er in a serious tone.

Ru Yueren is petite and has a naive tone, but her words are solemn and rigorous, which makes people feel convinced.

"Hahaha, the little girl is ambitious. It's true that 'wealth may sprout, but poverty won't take root'. Hahaha..." Mr. Lou laughed heartily, his sincerity overflowing from his words. "When I first saw you, I felt that the little girl was extraordinary. After more than a month, I am really impressed by her. I came to the right place today."

Ru Yue and Chu Ning'an looked at each other, knowing that Mr. Lou had investigated them and was probably well aware of their situation these days.

"I wonder why you are visiting my humble place today?" Ru Yue stopped trying to greet him and asked directly what was in her mind.

"The little girl is quick-witted, so I'll be frank with you." Mr. Lou Er still smiled faintly, but his tone became more serious. "You've been selling your fruits at a stall lately. Have you ever thought about opening a store in partnership with someone?"

"I've certainly thought about this. The problem is that we don't know many people, and this world is full of people who rob and prey, just like Jia Dafa of Manxiangzhai. It would be great if we could meet like-minded people to cooperate with."

Ru Yue usually speaks eloquently and is very flawless when talking about business. Chu Ning'an knows that Ru Yue is more shrewd and experienced than himself, so he doesn't interrupt her. Mr. Lou Er has been in the business world for many years and he understands the deep meaning of her words. Cooperation is acceptable, but trying to steal the prescription is absolutely not allowed.

"Hahaha, you're very insightful, little girl. Do you think I'm worth cooperating with?"

"Sir, you are kind. It would be great to be able to cooperate with you, but I don't know how you would like to cooperate."

In the business world, whoever reveals his cards first loses the initiative in negotiations. Ru Yue, who had been in the business world in her previous life, knew this well. Now that she was back to her old job, she was able to talk freely and at ease.

Seeing how patient she was, Mr. Lou Er was secretly shocked. He had overestimated her before, but after a few words, he realized that he had underestimated her. He did come to discuss cooperation with sincerity this time, so he did not try to test her bottom line.

"The Lou family's business in Yongning Prefecture is quite respectable. They also have a snack shop, so this fruit smoothie is the perfect choice."

"May I ask, sir, do you want to cooperate with me in the name of the Lou family, or in your own name?"

"Is there any difference?" Mr. Lou Er looked puzzled.

"Excuse me for speaking frankly, but please forgive me if I'm inappropriate. The Lou family's business is very extensive, and the dim sum shop is just a small part of it. The Lou family's cooperation with me is just adding another category to the shop, and the profit is limited."

"Oh?" Mr. Lou Er was even more confused.

"If you were to partner with me personally, it wouldn't be like this. The shop would primarily serve smoothies and beverages, supplemented by pastries and cakes. If you have the ability to manage it, you could expand this business to every state, county, and town in the country."

Second Master Lou was stunned. This little girl had such great ambition and courage. Although he was surprised by this, he did not miss the key point of Ru Yue's words. "You mean you and I should open a new shop together, focusing on smoothies and supplemented by dim sum, right? But can a shop be supported by just one kind of food?"

Seeing that he pointed out the problem directly, Ru Yue knew that he was a real businessman who could always find the crux of the problem from the numerous profits.

"Sir, you know that smoothies are only suitable for summer. Once the weather gets cold, few people will crave them anymore. That's why they're only a summer staple. As autumn approaches, we'll have to slowly switch to hot drinks. The dim sum I'm talking about is meant to complement these hot and cold drinks. The shop I'm talking about isn't a dim sum shop, it's more like an alternative tea shop, except I don't sell tea."

Mr. Lou Er's eyes lit up. He didn't quite understand what he heard, but he got the message: this shop was a bit similar to all the current tea and snack shops, but also a bit different. If such a novel thing was managed properly, it would definitely be very profitable. Now a smoothie could attract so many people, which showed that the food itself was fine. If the same food was sold again, why worry about the shop not being prosperous?

He suddenly became interested. "What a brilliant idea, little girl! It's neither a pastry shop nor a tea shop, yet it's trying to profit from both, while neither of them can share any of the profits. Hahaha, brilliant, truly a brilliant move."

Ru Yue couldn't help but admire Mr. Lou's business acumen. She just briefly told him the idea, and he was able to comprehend the "Blue Ocean Strategy" that had swept the world in his previous life. The wisdom of the ancients was truly extraordinary!

"It's true what you said sir."

"Little girl, do you have so many kinds of food to support this shop?"

"In the summer, we can focus on iced snacks, smoothies, snowmelts, and fruit milks. In the fall and winter, when it's cooler, we can focus on hot drinks, such as milk tea and fruit tea. These can be paired with snacks and pastries of varying textures. Of course, these dishes are similar to those served at a dim sum restaurant, and the clientele is primarily female. However, as a seasoned businessman, you must understand that women and children are the easiest to profit from."

"Little girl, are you willing to make a few of the dishes you mentioned so that I can try them?"

"Of course I'd like to, but my conditions here are really limited. I'm afraid it would be difficult to complete. Otherwise, I wouldn't just make one type of smoothie."

"How difficult is that? If you don't mind, why don't you come to my house and do it tomorrow?"

Seeing that Mr. Lou Er was serious about her suggestion, Ru Yue made an appointment with him to go to Lou's house after closing the stall tomorrow, and asked Mr. Lou Er to prepare milk, eggs, flour, sugar, vegetable oil and lard in advance... After thinking about it, she specifically told him to arrange a few strong people to help tomorrow.
