    Early the next morning, at dawn, Dalang left with his caravan.

    After seeing him off, Xin Hu felt lazy and suddenly lost all energy. She always felt that something was wrong in her heart. As soon as Dalang left, her heart was gone.

    Xinhu rested at home for two days in a row before adjusting his emotions.  Now A Zhong's skill in making snacks is pretty good. Xin Hu taught him three kinds of snacks that Chun Ya had not learned.  It just so happened that he and Chun Ya divided their labors. Of the five snacks in the shop, Chun Ya made two and he made three.

    Xinhu has no plans to develop new varieties for the time being.  Let them maintain the business of the shop first.  At the same time, Ping'er also began to learn to manage a dim sum shop.  Because Xinhu's current main focus is on opening a bamboo shop.

    It took her a lot of time just to choose a shop, and she looked at several places in a row.  Either it's too small, it's too far, or it's too expensive.  A bamboo shop needs a large space and preferably a large warehouse. It must have a yard.  Moreover, the business may not be good at the beginning, and the rent is relatively cheaper, so after searching for more than half a month, I finally found a large shop on the corner of the street with a large front and a small yard.

    ??This place used to be a pen and ink business, but because it was relatively remote, the flow of people was small, and the business was poor, it could no longer continue.  In fact, the business of this shop has not been good over the years. It is always idle half the time, and the house is getting more and more dilapidated. The owner wants to simply sell it.  Xin Hu did the math and thought it was a good deal to buy it, so he bought it for nine hundred taels of silver.

    "Sister, how many bamboo utensils do we need to buy to earn back nine hundred taels?" Ping'er asked curiously.

    "It's not certain. If I can earn back this capital within three years, I will be satisfied." Xin Hu said with a smile.

    The bamboo business is no more profitable than a dim sum shop.  A powerful family or a famous family will never use bamboo as the main furniture. Everyone still likes high-grade wood.  At most, some people like it and buy one or two for freshness.  Therefore, the bamboo wares brought back by Xinhu only need to be sold to some shops, inns, restaurants and other places.  It is not necessarily a high-end place, and some poorer families cannot afford high-end furniture.  It's a mid- to low-end one, so of course it's impossible to make a lot of money back.

    "It will take three years? Why not open another dim sum shop?" Ping'er said.  Simply talking about making money, it is more profitable to open a dim sum shop. After all, it is unique and the taste is really good.

    "I haven't considered this matter for the time being. I'm too tired and don't have that many manpower. Besides, if I buy this shop, even if the bamboo business doesn't work, I can switch to other businesses. If it doesn't work, I can sell the shop.  That¡¯s okay,¡± Xin Hu said.

    Because modern real estate prices are soaring every year, Xinhu subconsciously wants to buy real estate, and their family does not have a shop at all. The current dim sum shop is still owned by Mrs. Xie's family, although the rent is paid at the current price.  But in fact, whether they are high-ranking officials, ordinary wealthy families, or even wealthy families, they will buy one or two shops to do their own business, or they can rent them out.

    She bought this shop with the intention of buying some property for her family.  After all, their family really doesn¡¯t have much property.

    Ping'er seems to understand, but he can't make up his mind now anyway. As long as Xin Hu thinks it's feasible, he won't object.

    After buying the shop, he spent a lot of money to renovate the entire shop, which took more than a month. During this more than a month, Chef Jiang happened to be learning how to greet customers in the dim sum shop.  .

    Xin Hu only planned to transfer him to the bamboo shop as the shopkeeper.  Although Chef Jiang didn't read much, he learned some words from Dalang during his spare time during the war. Xinhu would then ask Achao to teach him how to keep accounts, and he would be able to take up his post.

    Chef Jiang studied very seriously. Being a shopkeeper is definitely better than working as a handyman in the kitchen. Moreover, there is a small yard next to the bamboo shop and several cabins in the backyard. Their family and two assistants live here, and his wife  Helping everyone cook, he can also get a sum of money every month, which means that their family's income will immediately increase. He is very grateful to Xinhu and Dalang for giving him this opportunity. The two couples are very happy.

    Xinhu transferred two articulate teenage boys from home to work as waiters. The gang of three people soon started to officially operate.

    Because of the advertising effect and cascading effect of the snack shop, the business of the bamboo shop was pretty good when it opened.  Although the money is not much, the customer flow is not small. The large items are not sold much, but the sales of some exquisite small handicrafts are very good.

    At this time, Dalang and the others were still on the road, but as soon as he returned to the capital, he had already written to King Yan, asking him to prepare the dim sum shop first and wait for them to arrive before it could be officially opened.

    &He left with a thousand men and horses.  The leader of this thousand men and horses, Zhao Ding, was originally a fifth-grade Qianhu, and his official rank was no lower than that of the local Qianhu. Moreover, like King Yan, he had fought in the north and south, and he was highly skilled in martial arts and had outstanding military exploits.

    So as soon as he arrived at the camp, Zhao Qianhu immediately arranged for his troops to rest, and within three days, he emptied the local Qianhu.  I became the boss of this camp.  This is something.

    Although they dispersed the people to many places, there were still about 300 people with nowhere to go. Chen Hua looked at the prefect with a half-smile, and after a long time he said: "These people can only be temporarily placed in the prefect's Yamen.  . If there is really no room, let¡¯s put him in a cell first.¡±

    Cold sweat broke out on the prefect's head, and he kept saying: "Where can I put him in a cell? There are still a few vacant courtyards in the prefect's yamen. Let everyone squeeze in first."

    "Well, thank you, Lord Magistrate. These people are all left to you. I am exhausted from the journey. I have reached my limit now. I don't know how many days I have to rest. It's New Year's Day again soon. All  I will hand it over to the magistrate on behalf of King Yan." Chen Hua finished speaking with a smile and served tea to see off the guests.

    What I mean is that when you take over, you have to settle down all the people.  I don't care.  King Yan will not care anymore.  We have come all the way here, who doesn¡¯t need a good rest?  As for the food, clothing, housing and transportation of these two or three thousand people, it depends on you.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
