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

midnight.

In a wine shop.

Only a few tables of guests were left.

One table is for Lu Yunfeng who has been here for two consecutive days, and the other table is for the strong man who has been here for three consecutive days.

The strong man was still gnawing on the last chicken bone with relish.

Lu Yunfeng wiped the corners of his lips elegantly and told the waiter to deduct the money from the banknotes he had given him yesterday before dinner.

"Take care." Wen Yuan escorted the guest to the door as usual.

Outside the tavern.

After leaving the warm fireplace in the house, it was quiet outside. When the cold wind blew, I couldn't help but subconsciously pull my clothes tighter.

Lu Ling couldn't help but ask, "Cousin, do you like Madam Yun?"

Lu Yunfeng looked at him silently.

Lu Ling mustered up the courage to speak: "If cousin really likes her, he can't be so cold and indifferent. Every time you go to her restaurant to eat, you never talk to her. You can't do this."

"What do you mean?" Lu Yunfeng suddenly stopped and looked at his cousin who was usually quiet seriously.

Lu Ling continued, "If you like someone, you have to learn to please her, even if it's just a few words. You can't just meet her without talking. Look at you today, Madam Yun was busy right next to you, and you didn't even come over..."

Lu Yunfeng frowned: "I didn't think so much, I just wanted to help her take care of the business."

Lu Ling felt a little disappointed: "Brother, you like Sister Yun, right?"

At this point, he simply changed his name.

Lu Yunfeng nodded, and the tips of his ears gradually turned red.

"If you really like her and want to take her home, you should learn to slowly get in touch with her and win her favor. Only then will there be further development. Why are you so stupid all of a sudden?"

Lu Yunfeng continued walking in silence.

It is still early in the night, and the streets are illuminated by lights from thousands of houses, from far and near.

He coughed lightly and then asked him, "Then tell me, how can you please a girl?"

"Of course it's to cater to his preferences." Lu Ling was excited when he talked about this. Finally, he could teach his elder brother a lesson.

Lu Yunfeng looked at him calmly: "Just tell me how to please him, don't be so long-winded."

"Ahem, then you have to observe carefully and see what Sister Yun cares about the most and what she likes the most, because everyone's preferences are definitely different."

Lu Yunfeng understood.

It seems that this guy is only slightly better than him in theory, but he has no real skills.

He no longer had the mood to ask further questions, so he waved his hand and told him to leave quickly.

In a wine shop.

After the burly man had finished his meal, he questioned Wenyuan, "I saw you guys give discounts to other people earlier, and even give them free side dishes. Why didn't you give any to my table?"

Wen Yuan patiently explained, "Because there are friends of our host at that table, that's why we sent some side dishes..."

The burly man didn't want to hear any explanations. He just wanted to save the last bit of money in his pocket. "I don't care if we're friends or not. I've been eating here for three days straight. I'm considered a friend of yours, right? If you gave him some side dishes and gave him a small discount, then you should give me a small discount too. You can just use the side dishes as a credit towards the food bill, and then give me a refund altogether."

Wang Ze forced his way in and said, "Even the County Magistrate didn't even give us a small portion when he came to eat here. You're not even more shameless than him, but you're still trying to shirk your responsibility. Do you think we provide meals?"

"Food provided!? What kind of food provided!"

The sturdy man seemed to have grasped the key point, and his eyes lit up.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Wang Ze quickly asked Ning Shan to throw him out.

"close the door!"

The strong man who was thrown out of the door walked home in a daze, and really wanted to cry.

Oh my god, I’ve been eating so much these days, what should I do?

……

In a wine shop.

After everyone packed up their things, they walked home in the night.

Along the way, Yun Zhenzhen was thinking about the family business, and she planned to launch blankets in other colors after the spring of next year.

When the weather gets hot, although we won’t need thick blankets, we can weave some thinner ones that are comfortable and can block the wind. I believe many people will like them.

When I got home, I found the eldest son of the Qin family waiting at the door.

"Third sister-in-law, we are here to give you an account. This is the account book for the past month."

A group of people walked into the house and started to reconcile the accounts directly. The eldest son of the Qin family was responsible for doing business, while the second son of the Qin family kept the account book.

The account entries and various expenses are recorded in great detail.

Yun Zhenzhen didn't look at the account book carefully. The Qin family were all honest people, and the character of the two Qin brothers was trustworthy recently. She felt relieved to leave the braised food business to them. She could just lie at home and make money every day, and she was happy too.

"Brother, I want to hand over this braised food business to you completely. You can find the source of goods, sell them, deliver them, and settle the bills yourself, and you can give me a share of the profits at the end. What do you think?"

Yun Zhenzhen smiled and asked him, "This way, you don't have to report to me every month like you do now. You only need to divide the profits at the end of the year. If there's anything you don't understand, we can discuss it together."

Brother Qin nodded in surprise: "Really? Of course I'm willing."

Before, I was pushing braised food out to sell every day. Although I could make money, I was working for others after all. Now my sister-in-law wants me to let her do it completely, and the feeling is completely different.

It is also the trust that his brother and sister-in-law have in him, and he must not let them down.

Yun Zhenzhen also had her own considerations. On the one hand, she wanted to help the people in the old house. On the other hand, although the braised food business was profitable, it was not worth mentioning compared to the wine shop business.

Everyone's energy is limited, and she needs to focus on more important things.

"Since Big Brother thinks it's okay, let's split it 20-80." Yun Zhenzhen continued, "If you can't make up your mind, you can go back and discuss it. We can sign a contract."

"Twenty-eight? That won't do!" The eldest brother of the Qin family shook his head repeatedly. "You guys came up with this idea. I just took over and helped sell it. You even opened the store and decided on the source of the raw materials. I think a fifty-fifty split is the right one."

In the past two months, he has been helping to sell braised meat. In addition to the basic salary, he also receives bonuses if he sells more. He can earn several taels of silver a month.

If the profit was changed to a 50-50 split, they could sell over a hundred kilograms of braised food and dozens of kilograms of wontons a day, earning ten coins per kilogram. This would mean a profit of dozens of taels of silver per month, which is equivalent to dozens of taels for their family every month...

The eldest brother of the Qin family's breathing suddenly became rapid. This was something he had never dared to think about before.

He quickly changed his tone: "Forget it... forget it, let's split it 30-70. We'll take 30, and you'll take 70... That's good enough... That way we can earn a lot of money every month, and we'll be content..."
