The Story of a Spoiled Daughter Raising a Husband

Chapter 49 The Boss's Worries

When the boss heard what Tong Qian said, he had to take her words seriously. He had thought that even if the final result was bad, at most Tong Qian would just leave. If he could find someone to revise her script, there wouldn't be any other problems.

Moreover, at least he still maintained the proper cooperation with the troupe leader. He was receiving money from him, and he could also attract customers through their drama troupe's performances. However, it seems that without Tong Qian, he might not even be staying with him.

However, if we put aside those inappropriate thoughts, it is undeniable that the reason why my business is now almost fully booked is entirely due to the new form of performance brought about by their drama troupe. But even more importantly, it is Tong Qian who provided the most crucial element.

If Tong Qian's departure leads to the entire drama troupe and Zhen Rui going elsewhere, leaving only Yun Yatou to maintain the facade of the place, then the number of customers lost will be countless. Moreover, Yun Yatou is also an uncertain factor. It seems that I really have to support Tong Qian.

It's also my fault for not having properly secured absolute power in my own hands before. Instead, I gave them the reason to use it to negotiate with me. But no matter what, I've already decided to agree to something, so how could I possibly make any further changes? Even without these changes, I couldn't just let Tong Qian leave like that for the time being.

Thinking this, after Tong Qian finished speaking, he said, "Miss Tong, you're overthinking it. I've said before that I've never refused anything you want to do. I would be more than happy to see you change your profit sharing and join the teahouse's operation."

"Leaving aside Yun's relationship, just considering the drama troupe, with you here, we can guarantee that our daily customers will be just as numerous as today. Moreover, we have things that other teahouses or theaters don't have that can attract people. With you here, what else do I have to fear? You say there will be more money, then there definitely will be more."

As he said this, he glanced at Tong Qian's expression again. Seeing that she was not displeased, he continued, "Miss Tong, if you have time, please persuade the troupe leader to put aside his thoughts. Although he said those words unintentionally just now, we cannot deny that he may have thought that way."

“If he really leaves, it will be a huge loss for us no matter how you look at it. I believe you, Miss Tong, would not want to see that happen.”

Tong Qian naturally knew that the troupe leader would have such thoughts sooner or later. After all, the teahouse was not giving him much of a share of the profits. Based on his understanding of the script, he could see its value. If it could really be sung, it would definitely be more profitable in places other than this small teahouse.

He also thought that he could get more money, and even if he didn't leave, with the money he had now, he would be fully capable of moving his drama troupe back to his theater. At that time, the boss would have nothing left to use him for.

The reason he's still here is twofold: firstly, he wants to keep the teahouse customers so they can attract more theatergoers; secondly, he still relies on his scripts. Without his guidance and fresh scripts, they would inevitably disband in the end. Thinking this, he slightly curved the corners of his mouth.

She knew beforehand that this boss was capable of anything when it came to money, but she never expected that he would still smile at her with such a big smile over such a small matter, even though he had so many feelings in his heart.

After letting out a slight sigh, he reassured her, "Boss, you don't need to worry so much. After all, only I understand the essence of theatrical creation better than anyone else. Even if they want to take their works to other places, they will only have the old ones. If you want, we can naturally have a few more theatrical troupes. You have nothing to fear about this."

Seeing Tong Qian's confident demeanor, the boss nodded and said nothing more. However, his heart was filled with even more panic, and he was increasingly agitated by Tong Qian. Now, he could only go along with everything Tong Qian said. Otherwise, if she really found a few more drama troupes and a few more teahouses, how would he make any money?

After the two finalized the agreement regarding Tong Qian's investment, the boss signed a written agreement and even pressed his fingerprint on it.

Looking at the completed matter and the clear written agreement, Tong Qian felt a great sense of satisfaction. Everything she had done before was worthwhile. Although she didn't know what the outcome would be, at least when she left this place in the future, she wouldn't be hindered by a lack of money. Moreover, this meant a steady stream of money.

Thinking this way, a thought suddenly occurred to me: now that all the preparations were in place, I could finally put back on the agenda the things I had been putting off.

After leaving the teahouse, Tong Qian went directly to Master Qiu's house, waiting for Ji Xiuping to finish his studies for the day so they could go back to the village together.

When they arrived, they found the people already sitting on the stone benches in the courtyard. Upon closer inspection, they discovered that the people were also talking about what had happened at the teahouse that day.

As Master Qiu watched Tong Qian enter from outside, he called her to sit down beside him and poured her a cup of tea with trembling hands. Then he asked, "Miss Tong, I heard before that you wrote the script for the play performed in the teahouse and rehearsed with them. So, is this sensational event also your doing?"

When Tong Qian heard Master Qiu ask this question, she looked at Ji Xiuping, who was standing to the side, and saw him shake his head slightly. She then realized that it wasn't him who had said it.

But why was he asking this? Although he was nervous, he still said, "To be honest, Master, I did write their script. Fortunately, I had some prior knowledge of the relevant aspects, so it was relatively easy for me to write it."
