Stepmother in charge: Making a fortune through farming and raising her children to fight back

Inside the wine shop.

Yun Zhenzhen said calmly, "Aze is right. There are indeed too few customers today. I was not thoughtful enough before. I just wanted to set the price a little higher, but I didn't expect that this would scare away many customers who came into the store, and instead fail to attract wealthy people."

Wenyuan nodded.

"Great! The boss has taken my advice to heart and is ready to lower the price."

She continued, "So after I get home tonight, I'll come up with a strategy, and we'll start implementing it tomorrow morning. Let's all work together to attract more customers."

"Does anyone have any other comments?"

Wen Yuan felt relieved when he saw that his boss had no intention of not using him.

He was so scared that he thought his boss didn't want him anymore.

"I have another idea, a serious one..." Wang Ze continued.

"I think we should make a rule. Each table should have a limited amount of side dishes. For example, let's say we have pork head today. A table of guests can't just eat as many plates as they want. If someone with a big appetite comes and takes all the side dishes in our restaurant, what will happen to the guests at other tables?"

Based on his observation of the people today, he would probably have to come here more often in the future. What if they had finished eating? There would have to be some rules to restrict them.

Everyone nodded vigorously.

This is a good suggestion. If all the appetizers are eaten by the gluttons, the guests at other tables will not be able to get any.

"I have an idea too." Wen Yuan raised his hand.

"We can't sell on credit in our store anymore. If we run into some deadbeats, it'll take forever to pay off the bill."

Xu Linger shook her head slightly. "I'm afraid that's not going to work. The prices at our restaurant are a bit high, and many people won't bring that much money when they go out to eat."

Yun Zhenzhen made the decision immediately: "From now on, only those who can prove which family the money belongs to can keep the account. Or, if they are regular customers, they can occasionally go back to their house to collect the money. As for the rest of the people, no credit will be given."

After a summary, the tavern was completely locked at night, and the first day of opening passed like this.

Wenyuan's home is in the city, so he can just walk back quickly. Sometimes when it is too late, he will just sleep upstairs and help look after the store, while Yun Zhenzhen and her family drive the ox cart to the village.

The road was pitch black at night, but fortunately the moonlight was bright enough tonight, and Qin Li was already very familiar with this road. After a while, he slowly arrived at the entrance of Qinjia Village.

In the past, the village became very quiet as soon as it got dark. The villagers would pack up everything before dark and go to bed directly at night.

Towards the end of this year, after Yun Zhenzhen's workshop opened, many people had an income, and the nights in Qinjia Village became lively.

The aunts in the village work in the workshop during the day, and the elderly or children help with housework. If they really can't do it, they will do it when they are free.

At night, everyone lit a bonfire and gathered together to work and chat.

By the light of the fire, some people were sewing shoe soles, while others were making adobe bricks not far away, preparing to save money to build a house next year. Everyone was busy with their own things, and the atmosphere was lively and cheerful.

Ah Wen was holding a book, holding Xiao Nan's hand as they stood on the main road at the entrance of the village. When he heard the rumbling sound of the ox cart, a smile immediately appeared on his face: "Mom, you're back!"

Aunt Zhao, who was sewing clothes nearby, also came over and said, "Yeah, you're back pretty early this time. I wonder how the restaurant business is going today."

"I think it must be incredibly good." Old Man Zhao puffed on his pipe at the side. "You've tasted Sister Yun's cooking before. I dare say there's no one in the surrounding area who can cook better than her. What's more, she was personally appointed as a Princess of An by the Emperor. Who wouldn't want to join in the fun? Her business must be good..."

The ox cart slowly drove over and finally stopped at the gate. Wang Ze was the first to jump off the cart.

"Hey, I brought this back for you from the restaurant. It's delicious. It shouldn't be cold yet, so eat it while it's hot."

A group of people walked home smiling.

When passing by Aunt Zhao's house, he didn't forget to give them a portion to try.

As she walked into the house, Yun Zhenzhen smelled an unusual smell.

Most of the family members went to town to help, and the children were in school. Once everyone left the house, no one cleaned up the things at home. The chicken coop and pigpen had not been cleaned yet.

Yun Zhenzhen couldn't help but feel once again that there were still too few people at home and they were too busy to handle serious matters.

For the two children who stayed at home, Jiang came to help cook dinner. She had things to do during the day, so we couldn't ask her to come and clean the house.

"Sister-in-law, you've been working so hard around the house, and I'm sorry to bother you enough to help with the cooking." Yun Zhenzhen smiled and walked over to greet him, "It's worth the trouble. After a few days, I'll pay you ten cents a day for cooking at home."

"Oh, sister-in-law, you are too polite. The child is my nephew after all. How can I accept money from you?" Jiang waved her hand indifferently.

"Don't be so polite to me, sister-in-law." Yun Zhenzhen held her shoulder and said, "You have been helping mother with the work at the workshop, and you spend an extra hour every day compared to others. I haven't paid you for this yet. If you don't accept these ten cents, I will have to pay you again..."

"Oh..." Hearing her say this, Jiang nodded and agreed.

While the children were eating pork heads in the house, Yun Zhenzhen and Erya lit the kerosene lamp and cleaned the chicken coop and pigpen.

Although the weather is cold now and the smell won't spread far, Yun Zhenzhen is a bit of a mysophobia, so she decided to clean up before resting.

After tidying up the house, I finally have time to rest.

Awen and Yunjing were reviewing their lessons from the day with the lights on in the main room, while Xiaonan was practicing boxing outside with Ningshan.

Lai Fu was massaging Wang Ze's legs and back. In his free time, he would do carpentry work in the yard by the firelight.

During the time he came here, he would learn from Old Man Qin in his free time, hoping that he would be able to develop his own skills in the future.

Qin Li went to the well to fetch water and filled all the water tanks in the house one by one, then picked up an axe to chop wood. Every night he prepared the things he would need for the next day, so he would not be in a hurry to do things.

In the yard, the sound of reading aloud mixed with the shouts of practicing boxing, everything seemed so beautiful.

Yun Zhenzhen went to the kitchen to make a pot of scented tea, poured a cup for everyone, and then sat comfortably beside the small fire, sipping it in small sips.

It's so uncomfortable.

……

the other side.

After returning home and washing up, County Magistrate Wang was just lying down next to his wife when his wife suddenly grabbed his mustache.

"Master, why does your beard smell so good to me?"
