"Lady, can we also do business?" Xiaomei was very excited, and after a few days, she was even more excited than Xuemi.

"Oh, that's natural, there's no one who can do business and who can't." Xue saw that I didn't seek great wealth and wealth, but only wanted to live in peace, which shouldn't be difficult.

When I went out of Anning, because the time was a little tighter, I didn't bring much silver, and after buying the yard and sitting on the empty mountain for more than three months, Xue Jian knew that she had seen the bottom of the box, and if she was asked to go back and beg others, she would never refuse. However, in the countryside, without their own fields, how can these four people live now? Fortunately, several girls are supportive, which makes Xue feel a lot more at ease. After thinking about it, he is only good at cooking, but the countrymen, even if Dongsheng Village is still rich, who would be willing to eat out.

One person counts short, two counts long, and everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high. Three stinky skins and stinky skins, on top of Zhuge Liang. In line with this principle, I discussed it with my mother and decided to sort out one upside down and open a grocery store, and the other room set up a few tables, served some free tea, and a few simple foods. The daily necessities of the general rural areas of Dashun are generally supplied by the merchants who walk the streets and alleys, otherwise they will have to go to the market to exchange. The merchant usually only comes once every three or five days, and there are times when he only shows up in ten days or eight days, and the set is once every five days, so it is inevitable that there will be inconveniences.

"Don't say it, that's a good idea!" Shengziniang slapped her lap on her leg and said loudly.

"I've only seen it in the county, but I haven't heard of it in any village." Shengzi stood on his mother's side, his face full of surprise, and said with a smile.

When he gave birth to a son in the farm, he worked part-time in various villages, and often ran to some small county towns, he turned his head and said to Xiao Tao and others on the side: "Snow see...... The lady is so smart, no one has ever thought of opening a grocery store before! ”

As soon as Shengzi's voice fell, Xiao Tao pouted and immediately answered: "That's nature!" Who are our girls? Don't use your little head from a small family to compare with our lady! ”

"Little Peach Girl is right," Shengzi waved his hand, blushed and said, "I ...... I'm a stupid person, where do I dare to compare with a lady? ”

"It's good to know!"

Looking at the obvious unequal battle between the two, Xiaomei glared at Xiao Tao, maybe she was too idle and bullied her children, which became Xiao Tao's biggest focus in life. "Alright, let's get down to business. Xiao Tao, you go and make the Huaishan porridge for the lady. Remember, after the japonica rice is washed, it should be marinated with a little salt and boiled in boiling water. Then soak the yam and yam in practical water a little to remove impurities and wash them off. Finally, put the japonica rice, Huai yam and gourd into the pot and cook together, and when the porridge is ready, add lard and refined salt to taste. This porridge is the most nourishing spleen and stomach, nourishing the heart and soothing the nerves, and has a significant effect on Yukimi's physical condition at the moment and her continuous heart palpitations, insomnia and dreams, yellowish complexion, and lack of concentration.

Xiao Tao agreed, the lady's diet is naturally a big deal, but it can't be ambiguous.

Seeing that she had sent this heartless little peach away, Xiaomei asked Xue Jian in a low voice: "By the way, lady, what should I do if the grocery store is stocked?" ”

The smile on Xue Jian's face gradually faded, but no, it is naturally inappropriate for a few girls to go to buy goods, and it is not good if you meet an acquaintance. Just thinking about the sales problem of such a small grocery store, but forgetting to think about the purchase problem.

"This is simple, my family has a child," the mother of the child dragged over to give birth, "put such a big living person, Xue sees that you are calling." Besides, in the past few years, he has also run several times in the surrounding counties, and the road is familiar. ”

"I'm just afraid that I'm too stupid and delay my lady's shop......"

Yukimi raised his eyes and looked at the child, but no, a ready-made candidate! The person who gave birth to a child is real, but he is not stupid, and over time, he is not a good hand! "In my opinion, that's a pretty good idea. You don't have to worry about having children, who is born to do business? You just remember that the most important thing in doing business is integrity, whether it is a big business or a small business, you must pay attention to integrity! ”

In fact, in addition to having children, there was no more suitable candidate, so it was finalized. In addition to Yukimi and leaving him behind, he taught him some of the most common sense and skills in modern times, and asked him to come over every day to teach him simple literacy and bookkeeping.

Yukimi directly turned the grocery store into a supermarket, and almost named it "Bigfoot Supermarket". I made a simple and practical four shelves, and then I personally pulled the list, and Shengzi was responsible for going to the city to buy it. Although he knew what happened to Xue Jian, he still hated the ruthless and unrighteous young master of the Zhou family, and it was needless to say that it must be the kind of story of a rich family bullying a lonely maid. Now he has quit his part-time job outside, and wholeheartedly helped Xue Jian Zhang Luo to set up this grocery store, and would rather run a few more, more than a few, but also get the best and cheapest goods.

When the auspicious day was chosen, firecrackers were set off, and a high signboard similar to the wine curtain was hung, with the word "Huimin" written on it, which attracted many children and mothers-in-law from the village to come and see. Xiao Tao stood at the entrance of the village, generously introducing the grocery store's "Huimin Policy" today, that is, those who came, who spent more than ten cents, gave a copy of "tendon cake and gold wire". Ten cents, not to mention for a wealthy village like Dongsheng Village, even Pingshan Village in the past, is also affordable, which is equivalent to customers who come to the grocery store to consume have gifts.

Shengziniang also stood at the door, acting as the shopkeeper seriously, beckoning the villagers to come in and choose goods, but because she was nervous, her expression was too solemn, and her smile was very stiff. But when the villagers saw her in the shop, they had a bottom in their hearts, so they beckoned each other to come in and have a look. They are all things that are commonly used by parents in the short term, and they are placed on the shelves, which are much easier to choose than the small burden of the merchant, everyone sees the real thing, the woman's shopping enthusiasm is instantly cannon fodder, and smells the fragrance that has never heard of what cake or silk, the children around them are pulling the corners of their mother's clothes, and some small hands are stuffed into their mouths, this damn, while patting away the child's hand, while secretly making eye contact with others, there is also the idea of trying.

This gluten cake golden silk, is in the morning, Xiao Pear blanched the dough with boiling water, and then put it half cool to live into a dough, and then wake up a pillar of incense and then began to put the agent, Mo Mei helped Xiao Pear to smear the oil between the two agents and roll them into a thin cake. The small pear has already heated the pot, and does not add oil, when it is burned in the middle of the bulge, immediately turn over, and then out of the pot, after the pot from the middle. On the other side of the kitchen, Xiao Li has already fried the dried eggplant and shredded meat, and is waiting for the burritos to come out of the pan. In addition, it is bean sprouts and shredded potatoes, potatoes have just appeared at this time, most people don't know how to eat them, and the yield is large, so it is very cheap, and Yukimi naturally purchased a large number of them. Now that all the materials are ready, the book is opened! This is a link that everyone likes very much, adding all the dishes to the cake, and wrapping it beautifully without leaking, which is actually a technical job!

In the next few days, this is fresh and convenient, but also to catch up with the new fashion of the county small grocery store, attracting more villagers, soon, this convenient grocery store is familiar and recognized by the people of Dongsheng Village, and the snack here, from time to time will also make some delicious food out, although there are not many varieties, but the taste is unique, now is the end of the year, there are relatives or errand people, just come to customize, it is more satisfying.

"Giving birth, the lady said that I think I am the fastest!" Xiao Tao interrupted the birth of a child who was practicing calligraphy one by one.

"Okay, okay, I know that you are the smartest, but people also think that Brother Shengzi is very serious, so don't affect Brother Shengzi."

"Xiaomei is very right." Yukimi raised her head, although it was difficult for her to write by herself, it did not prevent her from teaching everyone to read and manage accounts. Xiaomei and a few people have learned to write in the Zhou family, and now they are very interested in bookkeeping, and they are also very attentive to learning. I didn't expect that it was Xiao Tao, a girl who thought it was the best, so Xiao Tao became the bookkeeper and clerk, Shengzi became the procurement clerk, Shengzi's mother became the store manager and clerk, and Xiao Li became the head chef and clerk.

"Sister Xuejian, I, I also want to learn to read." After watching everyone for a few days, Mo Mei also became interested, and came over to say to Xue Jian.

Yukimi, of course, welcomed it, so she accepted the student as well. Now, several people take turns to learn to read or manage accounts, in short, it is such a small grocery store, everyone is a clerk, but each has its own division of labor. Anyway, it's not too busy to get busy, so, under normal circumstances, it's mainly Xiao Tao and her mother staring.

It is the time of the slack farm, one and the other, the free hot tea on the side of the snack bar, it attracts the villagers who have nothing to do in the afternoon, often come to chat, four small tables, always full, most of the time, it is a group of old ladies and little daughters-in-law, chatting while doing work. When you leave, someone will go back with needles and threads, which is very convenient anyway.

There are also some villagers who are reluctant to show money for a while, and Xuejian thought of a compromise method, bartering, this method came out, the degree of popularity, beyond everyone's expectations, everyone felt that this method was more convenient, so the business became more stable. The existence of a small convenience supermarket, although it does not make a lot of money, is better than small profits and quick turnover, and it can be said that there is zero risk.

There is also a young man with a flexible mind, seeing that this small grocery store is a few delicate little girls in addition to giving birth, so he sent firewood from time to time, and the mother of the child was unceremoniously accepted for Xuejian, anyway, this is the most important thing in winter.

For Yukimi, the sky hasn't fallen yet, so even if it's boring, it's still necessary to continue living. What's more, she has so many people around her who really care about her and love her, and they are all family members she wants to maintain and take care of!
