Chapter 251: Opening of the business
In addition to going to Guangji Hall every three days, Xiao Ming is at home or taking care of the medicine garden, watching the progress of the school, and occasionally following Shi Tingyu into the mountains to hunt and collect medicines.
Since that day to Wangjia Village for Li's pulse diagnosis, Wang Dafu will come every five days to ask Xiao Ming to prescribe medicine to protect the fetus, Xiao Ming is very grateful, Xiao Ming will also go to see Li's situation, I have to say that Li's fetus came in time, and now the status of the family has been improved, really as Xiao Ming said lying down to raise the fetus, Wang Dafu is waiting diligently next to him, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, the two couples are so affectionate, so that Xiao Ming's opinion of him has changed a lot, although every time Mrs. Wang is scolding, but for the sake of the child finally endured.
On this day, the Xiao family got up early, the Song family led Aunt Ming and Li'er to work in the kitchen, Xiao Han, Xiao Yu and Chen Yuanze had breakfast and did not go to Mr. Wu in the town to study, because today is the day when the two shops in Pingcheng opened, and they asked for leave yesterday.
In order to prepare for the opening of the shop, Yi Feng was busy arranging the shop, and went to the mountains and countryside to buy a lot of grain back, although he didn't know why the girl asked him to store the food at home first, in fact, it was better to put it in the store, but the girl would listen to the girl if she had an explanation, although it was very troublesome to come and go.
Two days before the opening, Yifeng hired a convoy to haul dozens of bags of grain seeds to the city and lay them on the shelves, just waiting for the opening today.
This is the first time that the Xiao family has run a shop, and it is two shops that opened at the same time, and the family attaches great importance to it, and they rush to Pingcheng non-stop after breakfast, and they want to open at an auspicious time.
When Xiao Ming left, he asked Xia Zhongquan and the village chief to take care of the school, and rushed to Pingcheng with his family, except for Aunt Ming and Yi's mother with a few children to take care of the family, others including Xiao Ming, Chen Yuanze, Song, Yi Feng and his son, Ming Sheng and others all went to the town and filled the two carriages.
In addition to the Xiao family and the Xia family, knowing that the Xiao family's new shop opened today, An's asked Shi Tingyu to take Xia Wu and Xia Xiaoba to go together, in the name of help, An's promised, let Xiao Ming go with confidence, and they watched at home.
On the carriage, Song looked at the receding scenery outside the car window and sighed: "I haven't been to Pingcheng for a long time, and I don't know what it has become now?" She doesn't usually like to go out, even in the village doesn't like to move around, although the family carriage goes to the town or Pingcheng every day, but she has never had the idea of going out, this time it was Xiao Ming who pulled her out, otherwise she didn't want to come out and murmur.
I remember the last time I went to Pingcheng, it was more than ten years ago, she went to inquire about her Yue'er's news, at that time in the city, she and Yue'er and his father didn't know anyone, so they had to pull someone to inquire, since then, she has never been to Pingcheng, after the death of the man and her son, she will not go out, and she will not be alive and waiting for death in a corner.
Today is different from the past, at that time, she would never have thought that there would be today, living in a big house, with little girls waiting, everyone respectfully and respectfully to her, those big officials' wives, ladies from silver families were polite to her, and those widows in the village who once looked down on her, the son of a dead man, are now flattering her.
Compared with before, this day is a heaven and an underground, and she has a faint feeling of exhalation and raising her eyebrows in her heart.
Despite this, she has always kept her duty, never asked more about family matters, and never advocated for Xiao Ming.
"Godmother, you should just walk around more, stay at home all day and be bored." Xiao Ming said with a smile, now the family has enough manpower, but the Song family is still helping to do things as always, Xiao Ming has the heart to let her stop and enjoy Qingfu, but she just can't be idle.
"Now in Pingcheng, we have also bought a new house, and in the future, you can go into the city every day to play, and you can also live in the city." The new house in the city has never been occupied, but the furniture in it is ready-made, just bring some clothes and bedding and live directly in it.
After hearing this, Song shook his head and waved his hand in disagreement, and said: "I won't go, what's interesting in this city, isn't it just that there are more people and more houses than in the village, and it's better to live in it than at home." ”
She was like this, Xiao Ming shook her head helplessly, and stopped persuading.
When they arrived in the town, it was exactly the time of the year, and the three o'clock was the auspicious time for the opening, and the convoy soldiers were divided into two roads, Xiao Ming and Shi Tingyu took Song's Xiao Yu and Chen Yuanze to the shop on South Street, and Xiao Han took Yi Feng Mingsheng, Xia Wu, Xia Xiaoba and others to West Street.
Xiao Ming's arrangement also means to exercise Xiao Han, although the shop on West Street is small, it is better than the location, the intersection of the south and the north, the flow of people is large, and there are more people to take care of, there is the experienced Yi Feng, and Xia Wu and Xia Xiaoba accompany Xiao Han She doesn't have to worry at all, and she can also cultivate Xiao Han's ability to deal with things.
Although the South Street is a large place, the place is remote, and few people walk in the morning, and this place is also meant to be used as a warehouse.
When Uncle Ming arrived in the carriage, there were already two teenagers waiting at the door, two teenagers were sixteen or seventeen years old, the two were Liu Xiaoming and Liu Tiesheng, the sons of the Li family and the Dawang family, and the Li family finally pestered the Dawang family to tell her about finding Xiao Ming, after learning that Xiao Ming's new shop was recruiting men, this Li's mind was alive, and he begged Xiao Ming that night, and sold her son Liu Xiaoming, his son was originally a buddy in Pingcheng, and he didn't give Xiao Ming an errand to anyone.
Anyway, recruiting one is also a recruitment, recruiting two is also a recruitment, they are all villagers in the township, Xiao Ming agreed without thinking too much, the two teenagers at the gate were looking at the intersection at this time, watching Uncle Ming drive the carriage over, the fair-faced young man was happy, and he didn't care about the dark-skinned young man next to him, and he took the first step to greet him.
"Uncle Ming, you're here!" This young man is Liu Xiaoming, the son of the Li family, he works in the flat all the year round, he is used to observing his face, watching people talk, although he looks average, but he has a smile on his face at any time, and he is very good at talking.
Compared with Liu Xiaoming, Liu Tiesheng, the son of the Dawang clan, is much inferior, his dark skin seems to have come from Africa, he is dull and does not open his mouth at any time, and he has not received the true inheritance of the Dawang clan at all.
Although Liu Tiesheng doesn't know how to speak, he is a good hand at doing work, which is very similar to Uncle Ming, he doesn't talk but does things, he has practiced a good strength all the year round, and he carries the bag on his shoulder.
For these two new employees, Xiao Ming prefers Liu Tiesheng a little, why, because he is honest! Although Liu Xiaoming is clever and ingenious, he can speak well, but because he is too smart and has a lot of thoughts, he has been here for a few days, Yi Feng has secretly seen him clearly, and let Liu Tiesheng do it when he does the work, and he always stands and plays when he has nothing to do, and Yi Feng runs up and down diligently when he is there.
Typical opportunistic performance.
Because the location of this shop is too remote, Xiao Ming only arranged for the two of them to watch the store, with Liu Xiaoming selling goods in front to greet customers, and Liu Tiesheng moving and lifting in the back.
