Jiang Han didn't quite understand. "You can't exchange the broken brown sugar for chicken feathers, right? You ate the broken ones, why did your uncle beat you?"

Meng Guo's father laughed and said, "You don't understand this. This is the secret of our family's business."

"You can eat the brown sugar if you want, but if you don't, you can give it to your customers. Every time a customer exchanges chicken feathers for your brown sugar, after you give them the required amount, you can give the broken brown sugar to the customer as a 'gift.'"

"When you do this every time, word of mouth will spread and your customers will remember you. This will make them more likely to trade chicken feathers for you."

Meng Guo's father looked at his wife and said, "Have you seen your mother? She also started running a restaurant with her family when she was very young. I took a boat to their island to collect chicken feathers. Your mother knew that I always gave her some 'da tou', so she remembered me. She always saved a lot of chicken feathers for me to collect. I saw that your mother was pretty, so I gave her more 'da tou'."

When Meng Guo's father talked about the past, the smile on his face became even wider.

Jiang Han didn't expect that Meng Guo's father would trade chicken feathers for candy and get a wife in return.

Jiang Han didn't quite understand one thing. "Chicken feathers aren't as useful as brown sugar, right? What do you use the chicken feathers you exchanged for?"

Jiang Han knew that brown sugar was hard currency in the past, and many people were reluctant to eat the brown sugar in their homes.

"It was used to make feather dusters, and later some people used it as feed."

Seeing Jiang Han's surprised expression, Meng Guo's father smiled calmly, "You think this business is too small, right? But people here have slowly become prosperous by doing small businesses like this."

Meng Guo's father sighed as he reflected on something. "In the past, we did business by exchanging sincerity for sincerity. Nowadays, people just want to get something for nothing. They spend a few thousand dollars to register a company, then scam it all over again. The market value keeps going up, but they can't come up with any real money. It all depends on who can scam whom."

Jiang Han naturally knew some of the current business practices. To be precise, such behavior was not called business, but playing with funds.

The real way of doing business should be the traditional way of buying and selling that Meng Guo’s father mentioned.

Jiang Han looked at Meng Guo's father seriously, "Dad, don't you have anything to say to me?"

For example, telling him to treat his daughter well.

Meng Guo's father was puzzled. "What can I say? It's Xiao Guo who's looking for a husband, not me. Why don't you two just live your own lives well?"

Jiang Han: "..."

Meng Guo's father continued to do what he was doing. The only thing this old father had to do was to leave a way out for his daughter when she was not doing well.

Her mother's home will always be Xiaoguo's retreat.

At this moment, the sound of fireworks exploding in the sky drowned out the sound of their voices.

Meng Guo's mother waved at them and said, "Don't grill yet, come over and set off the fireworks first."

Meng Guo's father distributed the baked food to everyone.

Jiang Han was divided into several groups.

Meng Guo felt a little jealous, "Dad, why does Jiang Han have more than me?"

"He's a boy, so he should eat more to grow taller. As a girl, you'll only get fat if you eat too much."

Meng Guo: “…”

Jiang Han naturally couldn't make Xiaoguo unhappy. Knowing that Xiaoguo liked to eat pork tenderloin, he secretly gave Xiaoguo two skewers of grilled pork tenderloin.

Only then did Meng Guo eat the barbecue with satisfaction.

After eating a few skewers of barbecue, Meng Guo lit a firework that looked like a peacock spreading its tail.

The fireworks were very gorgeous, and Xiaoguo stood in front of the fireworks with a smile as beautiful as a flower.

"Jiang Han, take a picture for me."

Jiang Han picked up his phone and captured this beautiful scene on the screen.

This was the first time Jiang Han spent the New Year like this.

While he was stunned, a red envelope was handed to him.

He looked at Meng Guo's father in surprise, "Dad——"

"Knowing that Xiaoguo was going to bring her boyfriend over, your mom and I already prepared red envelopes. This is your New Year's money, one for each of you. Don't think it's too little."
