Farming Happiness: Husband, Come and Plough the Fields

The sun sets in the west, and in the blink of an eye it’s time to turn on the lanterns.

Xiao Lingchuan lit the candlesticks and oil lamps in the room to make the room brighter.

The inn they were staying in was one of the best in the town, with a superior VIP room and bright and clean windows. After the previous guests left, Wufu ordered the sweeper to clean it carefully, removing even the dust from the corners.

Li Haitang opened the window, and there was a small balcony outside. On the balcony were a round straw table and two rattan chairs, surrounded by several pots of flowers and plants.

Sitting on the wicker chair, you can see the homes of ordinary people in front of you.

It was right after dinner, and it was just getting dark. Many ladies moved small benches and sat on the big trees to enjoy the cool air. They met people with whom they had the wrong temper and chatted for a while.

She had clearly begged for mercy just now, but unfortunately the savage husband didn't buy it. He held her in his arms and ate the tofu. If Bean Bao hadn't fallen asleep, he would definitely not have let her go so quickly.

"Husband, I am serious about business. I want to make a living in food."

There are many restaurants around Songhe Academy, but they are all cooked by Kyoto locals. The dishes are on the sweet side, and a little sugar is added to stir-fry shredded potatoes, which many students from other places are not used to.

Some people rent houses nearby and hire people to clean and cook, while a large number of people need to eat outside.

Ruan Pingzhi once complained about the food near Songhe Academy. It tasted too sweet or too bland. As a native of Kyoto, he was not used to it.

Scholars are not short of money and must have spending power. If they can open a gourmet shop, it will make a lot of money.

"The wine shop has a total of two floors, but the space is not very big. If you open a restaurant, it is a bit small, but the restaurant is more than enough."

Relatively speaking, the scale of a restaurant is not as good as a restaurant, the food is not sold at a high price, and the money earned is less.

It is difficult to decide what kind of dishes to focus on and find someone who is proficient in cooking skills.

Li Haitang just expressed his opinions in general, but Xiao Lingchuan immediately grasped the key points, drew inferences from one instance and listed a lot of details.

Seeing that the savage husband was interested, Li Haitang didn't hide it. She hadn't thought about the chef yet, but she had almost figured out the model of the food shop, so she just made fast food.

It is said that it is difficult to agree on a common theme, and it is obviously impossible to prepare a single dish. There were many students in Songhe Academy, so she changed the wine shop into a fast food restaurant. She put a circle of cabinets around the inside and put trays on it to create a buffet style. Of course, the price is definitely not expensive, and there are vegetables and meat, both meat and vegetables. , and some seasonal fruit snacks, the price is the same as an ordinary meal

average value.

It’s ready and served. You don’t have to wait when you arrive. You can just find what you like. After eating, the trays are collected and cleaned.

On the second floor, she plans to make special hot pot and barbecue, taking a slightly higher-end route.

"I think those scholars are unwilling to come out to have more time to read. We can improve it and set up a delivery service to deliver meals to the students of Songhe Academy. This way, they don't have to come out when it's meal time. , just go inside and wait for dinner.

This is a bit similar to modern takeout food delivery, which is convenient and fast. The store can provide quarterly cards, monthly cards, weekly cards, etc. The money is collected first and used for the capital turnover in the store.

Although these were just preliminary ideas, similar to talking on paper, Xiao Lingchuan was still shocked. After thinking about the many wonderful ideas of his wife, he thought they were promising.

The surrounding academies are not only Songhe Academy, but also several small academies. Even so, there are thousands of people.

Food ordering and delivery services can be launched, charging a certain fee, and those people do not eat in the shop, do not have to queue up, and do not need to take up space, which is really great!

However, if it is conceived this way, the location of Ji Qiu's wine shop is a bit small. It is best to buy the surrounding stores together, otherwise there will be no place for the scholars who come to eat the buffet to sit.

"Husband, Ji Qiu's shop costs ten thousand taels of silver, and the shops around are about the same price. Besides, they may not be able to rent it to us!"

If you can't afford it, you can rent it, but you're afraid that other people's business is too good and they won't rent. After all, no one is a fool.

"Next door to Ji Qiu's wine shop is a snack shop, and on the other side is a grocery store."

Xiao Lingchuan has a good memory. Three years ago, he went to Kyoto to do life and death escorts. He went to Ji Qiu's wine shop and saw that the two businesses around him were not doing well.

There are many grocery stores around, so much so that the one next door has been greatly affected, and the pastry shop sells greasy peach cakes and the like. Scholars don't like this taste, so few people buy it.

If we can expand the storefront, connect the two houses on the left and right, and the site is large enough, then we can build a restaurant.

As for money, there is no need to worry, he has a way.

"Could it be that you are hiding your personal money behind my back?"

Li Haitang akimbo, her husband is completely impoverished, and all the family wealth is in her hands.

When she went out, she took some banknotes with her, and what was left at home were valuable antique porcelain and jewelry, which could not be exchanged for money immediately.

If a person has no money, he has no sense of security and no confidence, so Li Haitang puts his wallet on Savage Husband, so that he can save money to buy something, while he takes care of the remaining savings.

"Madam, where are you thinking?"

Xiao Lingchuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said he was not worried about money because he had old friends in Kyoto and could borrow some temporarily there.

"Old friend?"

Li Haitang had never heard of him, but he always felt that the Savage Husband didn't have many friends, but wherever he went, he had old friends, and the friendships were pretty good, and it felt like he had friends all over the world.

"Did you know each other from the life and death escort?"

Li Haitang nervously grabbed the hem of Xiao Lingchuan's clothes. Every time she heard about the experience of being a life and death escort, she broke into a cold sweat without exception.

The family is not short of money, and even if it were short of money again, she would not agree to the savage husband risking his own life.

"No, it's my former employer."

Xiao Lingchuan shook his head. It wasn't a very deep friendship, so he didn't mention it, but the other party was a loyal person.

"He runs a boat in the south, specializing in transporting some gadgets from the outer sea. He is very popular among the ladies of Kyoto."

Every time I go to sea, I go with my head in my hand. This is a life-threatening business, more cruel than a life and death dart.

Several ships go out to sea every year, and only the lucky ones come back. Too many people are buried in the sea, and end up with no bones left.

But if you go there, you can get rich instantly, so many people finally choose to take risks. If they can come back safely, they will be rich. If they can't, it just means they don't have that kind of wealth luck. Many sailors write suicide notes to explain their affairs before leaving. After all, very few of them can come back.
