Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

The Qiao family looked at her together.

"Jian'er, this is obviously a trap set by Old Third Song. How can it be an opportunity?" said Old Lady Qiao.

Qiao Jian'er said, "Song Lao San's collection of taxes has caused resentment among the people, and even hatred towards the Guanning Iron Cavalry Station. If my brothers can do a good job of collecting taxes and reconcile this conflict, it will not only increase public support but also restore the reputation of the station. Isn't this a good thing?"

"That's true, but if we collect taxes, there will inevitably be people who will take advantage of it. Although I can enforce strict military discipline and strictly prohibit it, I can't guarantee that everyone will be there. Some things are out of sight and cannot be completely controlled."

Dayong felt that no matter how he warned, someone would definitely be doing something secretly.

Qiao Jian'er thought for a moment and said, "We can divide the collection team into several teams. Take Fusheng, Ada and the others with us. Each child can supervise a team and keep an eye on the soldiers' hands and feet. If anyone breaks the rules, they will be severely punished to serve as a warning to others."

The dayong heart is bright.

"Yes, these children are not soldiers in the camp and have nothing to do with the profits from the levies. It's a good idea to let them supervise the soldiers."

"I just happened to be going to the county town." Qiao Jian'er said, "Just bring Ah Da and the others with you."

Now that she has a place to hide her money, she plans to rent out the shop.

The money earned now is all included in the cost of the film, leaving only a small portion in the open.

"Okay, I'll go back and select the men. The three of us brothers will each send fifty men. We'll pick the relatively honest ones, for a total of one hundred and fifty to collect the tax. They have nine children in total, and we'll select one more from the village. Ten in total, each person will be responsible for supervising a team of fifteen men. That should be about enough."

"Brother, what percentage do you plan to collect?"

"Fifty percent." Dayong said firmly, "The court says fifty percent, and that's fifty percent. We must strictly abide by the rules set by the court."

"Anyone who takes an extra grain of rice or a copper coin will be severely punished."

Seeing his elder brother's belief, Qiao Jianer believed that if the Qiao family went to collect the taxes, the situation would be different.

Dayong came up with an idea and went to the camp to pick people. Qiao Jianer also called Luer.

Among these children, Lu'er is the oldest and the most stable.

"Lu'er, are there any good and reliable friends who can play with you?"

"Sister Kama, what are you going to do?"

"Well, it's useful. I need one more person to form a team with you."

"There are three people who play well together. If Sister Kama wants to tell me who is the most reliable, my opinion alone won't count. I'll go discuss it with Akura and the others."

"Okay, I'll be back in the evening. Come find me after dinner."

Qiao Jianer stuffed him with a handful of candy.

Seeing Lu'er running away happily, Qiao Jian'er smiled.

Children are good. Unlike adults, they don’t have many interests in their minds. Just a piece of candy can make them run around and do things, and they are full of sincerity.

Qiao Zhizhi was already waiting in the carriage with her shopping basket.

Although things have been tense recently, grandma still gave them a lot of pocket money, but told them not to tell anyone.

There are many things in the county town that are not available in the town, so you can go shopping there again.

As I walked along, I heard several passers-by cursing Song Laosan, and some people rolled up their sleeves and were going to deal with him.

Qiao Lianer first went to Jishi Medical Clinic, where Doctor Chen was taking a patient's pulse, diagnosing the condition, and prescribing medicine, all in one go.

Although he is making huge profits now, Dr. Chen still has a sincere heart towards his ordinary patients, and reminds them of the daily precautions in a gentle and thoughtful manner.

The patient was given a small discount on the medicine and left with many thanks.

Qiao Jianer was stunned. Is this still the Dr. Chen who was so excited about selling the special medicine?

The fragrant tea was served, and there was a smile in Doctor Chen's eyes and on the corners of his mouth.

"Miss Qiao, the medicine you gave me last time was incredibly effective. One person had severe itching all over his body, from his scalp to the soles of his feet. He took just one pill and his condition improved dramatically. After three days, his symptoms were almost gone. However, he still had a certain degree of relapse after stopping the medication, so he needs to use this medicine to continue to suppress it."

"The family was very happy and had some money, so they wanted to stock up on the medicine."

"And the kind that strengthens the kidneys. Ahem, Mr. Feng is over 40 and has lost his virility. His wife hasn't spoken to him for six months and is even clamoring for a divorce. After taking this medicine, their relationship has improved in the past two days."

"Now the price of a single kidney-strengthening drug has skyrocketed. Men, rich and poor, come to me every day to ask about it."

"Anyway, those medicines you took out later are all very useful, Miss Qiao. As long as you take out all you have, no matter how unconventional they are, there will be people who will buy them. I won't have trouble selling them here."

"That's all the medicine I have." Qiao Jian'er said, "As long as the customers respond well, that's fine."

She also hopes to have more categories, but these medicines are for the service of the owners, not for profit, and they are needed for more common illnesses, so there won't be too many.

It has been six days since I last came to the county town, and I can sell two boxes of each medicine.

Twenty kinds of medicine can be sold in forty boxes, which is four hundred taels.

After taking these banknotes, Qiao Jianer sighed inwardly. It turned out that the medical industry was indeed highly profitable. After all, things related to life and experience were more valuable than anything else.

I went to the printing shop and made a sign to hang on the shop that was going to be rented out.

After several days, those people left and the shop could be rented out.

Then Qiao Jianer filled a carriage with things and went to Jiuweilou to find Boss Cai.

The carriage was loaded to the limit with a load of two thousand jin, and was sold for forty-five liang.

When I came here just now, I saw that the crops in the fields on the outskirts of the city had grown quite tall. If I don’t sell them now, the price will go down in the future and I won’t make much money.

Qiao Jianer filled another cart and went to find Manager Hu.

Fuguilou had not sold these ingredients for a long time. Manager Hu had been looking forward to it day and night, and finally Qiao Jianer came.

The first thing he said was: "My ancestor, you are finally here. I haven't seen you for so long. Where have you been?"

Looking at the tearful eyes of Shopkeeper Hu, Qiao Jian'er was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Isn't the situation tense lately? How dare I come out to sell ingredients?"

"But Boss Cai, he——"

"Maybe he can contact that foreign businessman. However, foreign businessmen appear and disappear from time to time. Shopkeeper Hu hasn't seen any of them. Hasn't Boss Cai sold anything for a while?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Manager Hu, we still have to be careful now. We can't publicize this business too much. After all, those people haven't gone too far yet."

"Hey, I know, I know. Don't worry, Miss Qiao. Since you are willing to do this business with me, I will do my best to protect you and will not cause you any trouble."

He lowered his voice and said, "I'll do some adjustments to the account book."

Qiao Jianer smiled. In fact, all the shop owners understood this, but she didn't want to involve too many people at that time to avoid unnecessary complications.

Shopkeeper Hu sold it for forty taels.

Today's trip was quite fruitful, earning a total of 485 taels.

When they arrived at the abandoned yard, the gate was locked. Looking through the gap, it was empty. Ada and the others were not there.
