The modern fortune-telling history of a small shopkeeper

The two uncles lived close to theirs. Qiao Mingshan called the two uncles home after a while when he went out.

"Dad, you called us. What's the matter?" Qiao Chungui and Qiao Chunfu brothers came here together. When they heard that the father was looking for them, they guessed that the old man was looking for them for something.Came over to see the eldest brother and nephews here, and everyone said hello.

The old man asked the two sons to sit down, asked the grandson to repeat what he had just mentioned, and asked, "What do you think?"

Among the brothers, Qiao Chungui is the second eldest. He has been fishing with his father in the river since he was a teenager, and he has been fishing for 30 years.There is no son in their family, and several daughters were raised and married into other families, so they are the only couple left. Usually, the two of them go fishing and sell it outside, which is enough for their monthly living.

Qiao Chungui thought for a while, but he wasn't very interested in doing business, so he said, "I've been fishing for half my life, and I don't know anything else besides fishing. I don't understand business, so I won't do it." .”

Uncle Qiao already understood what he meant. Apart from fishing, he didn't know how to do other things, so he chose to continue fishing and didn't want to do business.

Qiao Chunfu ranked fifth among the brothers, and on the surface he looked younger than the two elder brothers. After thinking about it, he felt that this business could still be tried, so he said, "Okay, count me in, Ming Jing He Mingzhong is also in his twenties, and the two boys can help."

Qiao Wubo was still thinking about the two sons in the family. The two sons are also of marriageable age. The family is poor, and even the matchmaker does not come to their house.As a father, he has to find a way to earn some money so that his two daughters-in-law can marry a daughter-in-law and start a family. He wants to do this business. It is best if he can make money. Not much.

"Then there are only the eldest and the fifth you two, and the second, you don't want to do this business?" The old man asked after listening to the words of his sons.

Qiao Chungui was smoking with a hookah in his hand, and the mist from the puff made his face look hazy.Hearing what his father said, Qiao Chungui hummed, and he agreed, and he would not do this business.

"Grandpa, it's not like this. We need fish to make fish balls, so we get the fish from the second uncle. Whatever the price outside, the second uncle will calculate the price for us. Anyway, we go to buy it outside, or we have to buy it." It costs money." Qiao Minglang suggested.

"Second boy, what do you say?" The old man looked at his son and asked what he meant.

This time, Qiao Chungui responded without thinking too much, "Sure, our family, don't mention money or not, tell me in advance how much fish you want in the future, and I will save it for you."

"Hey, my brother settles accounts clearly, how can we take second brother's fish for nothing?" Qiao Chunfu said with a smile.

Qiao Chungui took two puffs of his cigarette and put down the pipe.

After getting responses from several sons, the old man made a final decision: "Okay, let's do this business."

After deciding to do this business, there are still some details about how to do this business, who is responsible for making things, who is responsible for transporting them to the town for sale, and so on.Qiao Minglang discussed with the two uncles.

In the end, I decided to come to my uncle's house to make tofu and fish balls early in the morning, because compared with the others, the place here is bigger and can accommodate more people.

There is also the matter of how to divide the earned money, which must be clearly explained in advance, so as to avoid conflicts over the division of money after earning the money.

The old man knew this truth very well, and didn't want his sons to have conflicts because of the business, so he decided: "This idea was brought up clearly. If it is not clear, we don't know how to do this business. There are many people in your two families. Do a lot of work... In this way, when the time comes to make money, the money will be divided into three shares, and the three of you will share it equally, no one will have more, and no one will have less."

"Okay, just do as you say." Uncle Qiao and Qiao Chunfu had no objections.

Now that the two uncles agreed, Qiao Minglang naturally couldn't offer any opinions. Their brothers and sisters are still young, and there is no adult in the family. When the time comes, they must work less than others, and when the time comes, they will earn even more money. Well, their family is not at a disadvantage.
