Zhao Lao couldn't look at it, "I said you old ghost, why are you so anxious?"

Li Lao ignored him and continued to stare at the pot with green eyes. Guan Yuan brought out the cooked beef jerky: "Grandpa Li, Grandpa Zhao, you try it, this is our newly made beef jerky"

Li Lao has a great interest in the food made by the two children, and the dishes in the pot are not yet cooked, so they just need to be mated. As soon as he entered it, he realized that this beef jerky was simply different from what he had eaten in the past. The meat is fragrant, the meat is tender, and the beef with tendons when chewing is chewy and not sticky to the teeth.

Li Lao squinted his eyes and reminisced, and said for a long time: "Yes, yes, with this skill, you will also support a family business in the future." When he was happy, he knocked on the table and shook his head and sang a song about Guan Gong.

Zhao Lao was also full of praise for this beef jerky. I couldn't stop talking for a while, but I forgot that I was still cooking hot pot. It was snowing heavily, and the room was full of fragrant vegetables, and the two old men were not in a hurry to leave after eating, and were going to stay here for the night, so Li Lao sent Xiao Zhang back to report the news.

Luckily, this wasn't the first time they'd stayed here, and there was room for them to live in. After waiting for a qiē to clean up, Li Lao asked Zhao Shenggu what they planned for the future.

"We're going to set up a storefront, find someone to watch, Xiaoyuan and I are going to study" Zhao Shenggu hugged Guan Yuan in his arms and talked about his plan in detail.

Zhao Lao was very happy to hear it: "Yes, I wanted to say it a long time ago, where can the little baby not study, the country now attaches great importance to this aspect, and you still have to read to understand it."

Li Lao didn't like to hear this, "What do you mean, you mean I'm unreasonable?" Zhao Lao couldn't cry or laugh: "Ouch, I'm sorry, I didn't check you for a while, I told you in, unintentionally, unintentionally, haha"

Li Lao snorted from his nose, turned his head and said to Zhao Shenggu with a smile: "Although I haven't read any books, I am in favor of you reading books, this is a person with a long-term vision, yes, but did you say that you want to sell a storefront and look at the place?" ”

Zhao Shenggu nodded, "It's already optimistic, it's not far from the county government building, take a look, the people who live there have a good income, in fact, the people who come to us to buy braised meat are almost all the people from that area, so as not to let them come to the market again."

Li Lao nodded, although Zhao Shenggu was still young, he was calm and organized, and Li Lao had already treated him as an adult. "That's good, we can get closer if we want to eat braised pork in the future"

Zhao Shenggu knew that Li Lao was joking, so he also laughed along. In the evening, they talked for a while before they went to rest. The next day, Zhao Shenggu and Guan Yuan were ready to go to the county seat with Li Lao and them to finalize the store's affairs.

Zhao Shenggu and Guan Yuan's favored storefront is right in the center of the county, with the government on the left and the workers' compound on the right. The price of a small courtyard with the back of a storefront is 1,500 yuan. It's not too expensive, but it's not cheap either. After several negotiations, it was finally set at 1,300 yuan.

"Just for you and this little baby?" The homeowner looked at Zhao Shenggu hesitantly.

Zhao Shenggu nodded: "Yes, I am the head of the household, and it is no problem for you to give it to me." Guan Yuan originally thought that it didn't matter if he added his name or not, but Zhao Shenggu must insist: "The two of us are a family, and every industry in the future must be shared by the two of us." Guan Yuan didn't have any reason to object, so he naturally agreed.

With the newly released real estate certificate, Guan Yuan and Zhao Shenggu decided to celebrate. Celebrating, of course, I was too lazy to cook by myself, so I ate a meal in the county seat before going back.

"After the beginning of spring, we will go to the school to register, but we have to look good at the characters in the store before", the two are used to lying on the bed and talking, Guan Yuan said while playing with Zhao Shenggu's fingers.

Zhao Shenggu nodded: "Indeed, it's just that this person is not easy to find, let's find someone in the tunli, those who know the root cause also know it in their hearts."

Guan Yuan also agrees with this, although his luck is not good, and those who are related by blood are some of the best, but there are still many people in the tun who work hard and are sincere.

"Then who do you think is the best to find?" Zhao Shenggu will discuss with Guan Yuan no matter what he does, as long as it is not too out of line, he will generally agree unconditionally to the decisions made by Guan Yuan.

"Brother, what do you think of Guan Shi's father?" Guan Yuan thought of that honest man in his mind, and he built a yì to Zhao Shenggu.

"Uncle Guan Guo, you say? He's not bad, he works hard, he's straightforward, and he's enthusiastic" Zhao Shenggu said: "It's Aunt Li Ying's a little..."

Guan Yuan looked at Zhao Shenggu's tangled expression, and laughed out loud: "Do you think Aunt Li Ying is a little spicy?"

Zhao Shenggu nodded: "Aunt Li Ying is too powerful"

"I think it's okay, isn't that Guan Shi's grandfather too partial, if Aunt Li Ying is not good, she will not be eaten by them, in fact, Aunt Li Ying is very good, she has a good heart, and she is also diligent."

Li Ying is a well-known diligent person in Guanjiatun, but Guan Shi's grandparents are looking towards their youngest son, and they have to climb Guan Shi's family for everything, and gradually Li Ying has become powerful.

"You can say okay, then tomorrow we will go and invite someone, talk about it well, and see if Uncle Guan Guo agrees."

"Then how much do we pay people?"

"Now a worker's salary is more than 20 yuan, and we can't give it too high, I think 25 yuan a month is about the same."

After the two discussed the matter of inviting someone, they remembered that they hadn't entered the space to see the lotus for several days, and while they were free, the two entered the space.

Although the lotus flower in the spiritual spring is still watery, it is hanging downward, and it looks like it has no spirit. Feeling the breath of Zhao Shenggu and Guan Yuan, the lotus flower raised the flower bone with a swish, and the two leaves next to it also swayed, seemingly happy.

Guan Yuan was amused by the lotus flower's reaction, thinking that the promise of coming to see it every day didn't come true, and the action of touching the flower bone was even more gentle.

Lianhua also felt Guan Yuan's mood, and couldn't help rolling around in Guan Yuan's hands like a coquette. "Hehe" Guan Yuan laughed, "Brother, it's so cute"

"Now I think it's cute, who said it's a monster, and let me stay away from it? Well! Zhao Shenggu quipped. Guan Yuan retorted: "It's originally a monster, but seeing that it's so stupid, it can't do anything, even if it's cute."

Lotus originally heard Guan Yuan say that it was stupid, but then heard Guan Yuan say that it was cute, and instantly became energetic again, and the flower bones rolled in Guan Yuan's hands.

The two stayed in the space for a while before going out. In the past year, Zhao Shenggu and Guan Yuan have to talk and play with this lotus almost every day, and Guan Yuan has become more and more serious about this lotus.

The next day, the two did not set up a stall and went to Guan Guo's house together. When I went, Guan Shi was picking chickens in the yard, and when he saw Guan Yuan coming, his eyes lit up: "Boss, what delicious food did you bring me?"

"Hey, you kid still dare to talk to me" Li Ying said to go to Guan Shi's ear, but Guan Shi twisted and dodged it. Li Ying let him run away, and hurriedly greeted Guan Yuan and Zhao Shenggu: "Shenggu, Xiaoyuan, sit on the kang in the house, it just so happened that our family bought meat today and made stews, you have to eat your stomach and go back." Li Ying said sincerely, and Zhao Shenggu naturally understood it.

"Thank you, Aunt Li, we are here to find Uncle Guan Guo, is he at home?"

"Yes, yes, where can he go when he's not at home on this cold day! Hurry up, go into the house, don't freeze outside" Li Ying enthusiastically pulled Guan Yuan and Zhao Shenggu into the house. "Kid, dad, hurry, Shenggu and Xiaoyuan said that they have something to do with you" Li Ying shouted into the backyard.

Guan Guo agreed from afar. After a while, he entered the house: "Shenggu, what are you looking for me?" ”

"Sit down, I'll grab some sunflower seeds for you," Li Ying said, holding a plate.

"No need, Aunt Li, don't be so polite" Zhao Shenggu hurriedly excused himself. "Hey, why is this kid so angry, he doesn't have anything good to play," Li Ying walked into the house after speaking.

"Yes, yes, let your aunt catch it" Guan Guo said, took out the wine and put it on the small table on the kang, and asked Zhao Shenggu: "Come on?" ”

Zhao Shenggu waved his hand: "I don't know how to drink yet."

Guan Guo was stunned and patted his forehead: "Yes, yes, you are still young, you usually look better than an adult, I won't forget your age, haha!" ”

Li Ying put the melon seeds on the table and was about to go to the kitchen to cook, but Zhao Shenggu hurriedly stopped her: "Auntie also sit, I have something to discuss with you"

Li Ying was confused: "What's the matter with me here?"

Zhao Shenggu took Guan Yuan into his arms, gathered his clothes for him, and then said, "That's the case, I'm not selling braised pork......

Without waiting for Zhao Shenggu to finish speaking, Guan Guo interjected: "Yes, we all know about this, I heard that it sells well, isn't it being bullied by the people in the city?" This can't be done, our people in Guanjiatun can't take the turn of outsiders to bully, Shenggu tell me about it. ”

Guan Yuan was defeated by Guan Guo's strong brain replenishment ability, and Zhao Shenggu couldn't cry or laugh: "No, our braised meat sells okay, but next year Xiaoyuan and I have to go to school, it just so happens that we have a store in the county, so we want to find someone to help us look at the store, it's not too tired, we will do it every day, you just need to help sell it and collect the money." ”

Li Ying and Guan Guo listened to it, but they didn't react at all, but Li Ying came back to his senses: "You can rest assured that such a big business will be handed over to others?" ”

"There's nothing to worry about, there is a quantity of braised meat every day, and the price is also determined, so I know exactly how much money will be sold every day, now the salary of 25 yuan per month, generally speaking, it won't be sold for long, at most three or four hours, and you can go home after it's sold out, Uncle Guan Guo, do you do it?"

Guan Guo's hand rubbed unconsciously on his pants.

Zhao Shenggu asked again: "Do you think there is less money?" ”

Guan Guo hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, 25 yuan a month, my God, it's more miles than other people's offices, I'm just worried... I'm worried that you two will pay me such a high salary, so do you still have to earn it? Don't lose money then! ”

Zhao Shenggu and Guan Yuan both laughed when they heard this, it seems that Guan Guo is really good, "Don't worry, I will definitely not do the loss-making business, just go out and sell things, I don't know if you can see it..."

Li Ying was stunned by the salary of 25 yuan, and then came back to her senses and hurriedly said: "What is there to look down on, they all eat according to their ability, and they don't steal or rob, now I go to the county seat, there are so many stalls there, people can make money." He turned his head to Guan Guo and said, "Dad, if you don't go, I'll finish the little work in the team alone."

"Uncle Guan Guo, in fact, for a few hours a day, it doesn't delay you to take care of the family at all" Zhao Shenggu was afraid that he would have concerns, so he made everything clear.

Now Guan Guo and Li Ying are even happier, they can make money and take care of their families, this is a good thing that pie in the sky falls. Guan Guo took a sip of wine, blushed his neck and said, "Shenggu, uncle thank you..."

After saying the matter, Zhao Shenggu and Guan Yuan were ready to leave, Li Ying and Guan Guo had to leave the two of them for dinner, but it was difficult to resist, so Zhao Shenggu and Guan Yuan had to stay.

"Shenggu, when will you go to work, you will know, I will do it properly immediately" Guan Guo patted his chest and said.

"The store hasn't been cleaned up yet, and it will be five days at the earliest," Zhao Shenggu conservatively said.

"That's okay, your aunt and I are okay now, we'll help you clean up your storefront"

"That's okay, I was looking for someone to look for, since that's the case, your salary will be calculated from tomorrow," Zhao Shenggu said.

Guan Guo hurriedly waved his hand: "Shenggu, this is a help, how can I still ask for your salary", Li Ying also echoed on the side.

"If you can't do anything, you have to give money to invite others." After talking for a while in Guan Guo, the two of them came out of their house, and tomorrow they have to clean up the storefront, and they have to invite a few people, and the carpenter also needs one.

The two of them did not go home, and walked straight to Guan Shulin's house. It was the first time for Guan Yuan to enter their yard in Guan Shulin, and as soon as he entered the yard, there was a mess everywhere, on the ground everywhere, and a smell of pig manure. Guan Yuan covered his nose, it was the first time he had seen such a dirty yard.

Guan Mumu was poking ants in the yard, and when he saw that Guan Yuan had come to the house, his whole face turned red, he stood in the yard at a loss, opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't know what to say, and finally mustered up the courage and asked in a voice like a mosquito: "What are you doing here?"

Guan Yuan still has a good impression of Guan Mumu, although this child is dirty, but there is a lazy mother, Guan Mumu himself is well-behaved and sensible, which is very distressing.

"We're looking for your dad, is he there?"

"In... "Guan Mumu replied in a whisper, and ran in to call his father, after Guan Shulin came out, Zhao Shenggu told him the reason for looking for him, Guan Shulin was not the first time to take Zhao Shenggu's job, knowing that he was generous, he took this job very happily, and wanted to invite Zhao Shenggu and them to go in and sit, but when he thought of the mess in the house, he was embarrassed to speak.

When Zhao Shenggu and the others went out, Guan Yuan looked back, only to find that Guan Mumu was looking at them at the courtyard gate.

The two went to Tunli to invite a few people separately, and then went home. The next day, everyone met at Tunzikou at the agreed time, but Li Ying also came, "There's nothing to do at home, it's a little bit of help." ”

Since it was someone's kindness, Guan Yuan and Zhao Shenggu were not easy to refuse. The group went to the county town and began to renovate the storefront.

The courtyard behind this store turned out to be inhabited by people, and everything in the kitchen was available, Zhao Shenggu took the helpers to work in the front, and Guan Yuan and Li Ying cooked in the back.

Li Ying thought that she would finish it with one hand, but she didn't expect it to become Guan Yuan's hand, smelling the fragrant vegetables, the gluttonous worms in Li Ying's stomach were hooked and ran straight out.

"Xiaoyuan, you are too capable, you are so small, why are you so delicious to cook, this skill is not worse than those who are chefs! No wonder your braised pork is so delicious, it turns out that you, the chef, are in charge of the cooking! Li Ying sighed, and thought of Guan Shi, who was one year older than Guan Yuan, who knew how to catch chickens and dogs all day long, and bully the little baby in the tun, as soon as she thought of this, Li Ying's head hurt.

Guan Yuan smiled shyly: "I don't know what's going on, I just like it, it seems that I know what to do with a spoon!" "Of course, he made up something for his anomaly.

Li Ying believed it out of ten, slapped her thigh, and said excitedly: "I know, this is what they say... Talented, yes talented! ”

They chatted happily in the back, and the people in the store in front had no intention of working when they smelled the fragrance, and to be honest, eating a meal cooked by Guan Yuan was more attractive than giving them wages.

When Li Ying shouted to start the meal, these people rushed up, watching these people desperately stuff their stomachs as if they hadn't eaten for eight hundred years, Li Ying has always been spicy, and went directly: "Eat less, one by one like the king of big stomachs, I want to eat Shenggu and Xiaoyuan and them poor."

These people also knew that Li Ying was talking about fun, but when they looked at the empty bowl in front of them, they still touched their heads embarrassedly, "Who made the dishes so delicious!" ”

Under the temptation of food and wages, these people worked extremely hard, and the counter made by Guan Shulin was also marked with complicated patterns, which looked very high-grade, and finally the whole decoration made Zhao Shenggu and Guan Yuan very satisfied, and another person paid an extra yuan in wages.

When leaving, an uncle in the tun patted Zhao Shenggu on the shoulder: "Baby, do a good job, uncle knows that you are a person with great skills" Finally, rubbing his hands embarrassedly, "Remember to find me if there is such a thing next time, don't do anything else, just this one meal is enough"

The people next to him burst into laughter.

Zhao Shenggu couldn't help but smile: "Certainly"

Five days later, the "Shenggu" braised meat shop opened along the way, Zhao Shenggu went to buy firecrackers, and the crackling sound, originally wanted to invite a dragon dance team, but ran around the county, but there was none, and finally had to give up.

In order to have a new atmosphere for the new store, Zhao Shenggu launched beef jerky on the first day, and the braised meat is unlimited, all of which are discounted.

On the first day, Guan Guo looked at the crowded crowd and was stunned, mother, these people don't frown when they buy such an expensive thing. Li Ying also came to help, she was neat with her hands and feet, she was responsible for cutting meat, Guan Guo was responsible for passing the scales, Guan Yuan saw that they were too busy, so she still took over the work of collecting money, and Zhao Shenggu was responsible for greeting guests in front, and the four of them worked together to cope with the day.

In the last count, it was sold for more than 500 yuan today, although it was discounted, but it almost made more than 100 yuan. Today is really tiring, Zhao Shenggu gave Guan Guo and Li Ying a bonus of five yuan.

Guan Guo and Li Ying naturally don't want it, Zhao Shenggu said: "Today is a good start, let's have a happy life, there will be no such thing in the future"

Guan Guo and Li Ying had no choice but to take the money. Back at home, the two carefully calculated Zhao Shenggu's income, and after calculating it, they swallowed their saliva in unison.

"My and my good boys, these two little babies are too good at making money," Guan Guo muttered.

Li Ying pinched him: "I'll tell you, this matter is rotten in my stomach, don't tell anyone who asks, Shenggu and Guan Yuan are generous enough, we can't be that villain." ”

Guan Guo was pinched and grinned; "Let go, am I that kind of person?"

Guan Guo's personality Li Ying still knows, this is a fool who leads to the end with intestines, if she wasn't tough, their family would have been eaten by her mother-in-law and uncle's family without any bones left. "I think those two children are people with great abilities, let's follow them steadfastly, I can't say that there will be great benefits in the future" Li Ying is not smart, but she has a woman's intuition.

Guan Guo nodded: "That's for sure, no matter whether the two babies are good or not, such a good thing has fallen on the head, there is no reason not to cherish it, and they chose me to go to the store, they must also fancy us to be honest" Speaking of this, Guan Guo smiled: "Now you still say that I am stupid, look, what do you say, it is the sentence that the branch secretary in Tunli often recites... What is born with my talent must be useful, haha, don't you see this, it's really a cultural person's words"

Li Ying looked at him with a smug face, and pinched him again: "Stupid! ”

After that, Guan Guo really did his best, he followed his eldest son to learn some mathematics, wrote down the money clearly, and automatically sent the pork he bought to Zhao Shenggu's house every day to help wash it clean. If it weren't for the suspicion, he would definitely have to do the work of braised meat.

Guan Yuan is very satisfied with Guan Guo, he doesn't talk much, he is sincere, he works hard, and he is the most suitable employee for a position that does not need to be innovated.

With Guan Guo's help, Guan Yuan and Zhao Shenggu finally didn't have to blow cold wind in addition to braised meat in winter. The two took advantage of this time, Guan Yuan taught Zhao Shenggu to recognize some simple words, and then the two talked, went to the space to accompany the lotus every day, and lived a full and regular life.

But Guan Yuan knew that Guan Jiatun was about to usher in a big change.
