A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career

Shen Bohu said solemnly, "Mrs. Chen just took out her money bag at the dock to save my little daughter. You go and get a hundred taels of silver from the account, and it will be considered as compensation for Mrs. Chen's loss."

Manager Wu nodded, "Yes!"

One hundred taels of silver!

When the four children who were immersed in eating heard this, they all looked up in shock, and the food on their chopsticks fell into the bowl. The Shen family is too rich!

"One hundred taels is too much. It's actually only forty cents. The half taels of silver were given by Miss Shen when she bought the tofu." Chen Changsheng told the truth.

"You saved my little girl. You deserve this hundred taels of silver. Don't refuse." Shen Bohu forcefully handed the banknote to Chen Changsheng to accept it. "Mrs. Chen just said that the food she sells is iced tofu curd?"

Chen Changsheng nodded.

Qin Tingyu also echoed, "The tofu puffs made by Mrs. Chen are delicious. They are cold and cool to relieve the heat. They also have sweet and salty flavors. Their craftsmanship can match those of the masters in Jiangzhou Prefecture."

Shen Jianing smacked her lips and said with some pity, "Sister Tingyu, is the iced tofu curd really that delicious? I haven't even tasted it yet."

Chen Changsheng smiled, "I will sell it at the pier every day. If Miss Shen wants to eat it, she can arrange for the servants to buy it back."

"Manager Wu, I remember that some time ago, the baggage workers at the dock were arguing about raising their wages?" Shen Bohu put down his wine glass.

Manager Wu immediately said, "Isn't that right? They all want a raise in wages, especially six or seven people led by Zhang Cailiang who made a big fuss. They said that the weather was too hot and the wages were not enough for him to buy water. They said that the increase of three cents was not enough. He threatened to invite others to go on strike if the price does not increase this month."

"Doesn't the dock provide water?" Shen Bohu wondered.

"That is to say, there is obviously water. But Zhang Cailiang said that the heat is so severe that he insists on drinking ice water. Oh, I also want to drink ice water!" Manager Wu was so angry that his beard stood up, and it was only the middle of the summer in the house to get some ice. block back.

"You really don't know what to do!" Shen Bohu said angrily, "Since those people don't want to do it, just replace them!"

Shen Jianing said, "Dad, substitution is not the final solution. I do have an idea."

"Let's talk about it." Shen Bohu was a businessman, and the etiquette of not speaking at the dinner table was not so strict. If he talked about business, he would be even more enthusiastic.

Everyone at the table put down their chopsticks and looked at Shen Jianing.

"Isn't Aunt Chen just making iced tofu puffs? Why don't we also order tofu puffs from Auntie and provide a bowl of them for free every day, so that the workers have nothing to say."

Shen Jianing continued, "Auntie, your salty and sweet tofu puffs cost three cents a bowl, and the original tofu puffs cost two cents a bowl. If we only want the original flavor, we can prepare some toppings ourselves and put less in each bowl, so that we can save a lot of money. few.

In addition to port baggage workers, orchards and wineries can also provide free supplies. Firstly, it can block the workers' mouths to raise their wages. Secondly, when those who have not thought about raising their wages see you taking the initiative to send them things, they will definitely remember your kindness. "

The Shen family has a big business. In addition to water transportation, there are other industries. There are at least more than 200 workers, some of whom are hardworking old guys who have been working for more than ten years. The free tofu noodles are considered a benefit.

Shen Jianing's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Dad, I thought of it! We can also do business with the ship passengers at the dock. Doesn't our passenger ship also provide meals? With this, wouldn't the business be even better?"

It's sweltering on the ship, so the iced tofu curd business must be good. Not to mention everyone will buy it, but the rich guests in first and second class can still afford it for two cents.

"Hahahaha, not bad!" Shen Bohu said with a smile on his face. His little daughter knew a lot about business and could help him solve problems, so he doted on her very much. There was hope for the inheritance of the family business.

Chen Changsheng didn't expect to get a business deal today without any reason, "Does Miss Shen want to order tofu nao from me?"

"Yes! I wonder what the rules are?"

"The restaurant's minimum delivery volume is 300 bowls, which is exactly one barrel. It is delivered early every morning." When talking about business, Chen Changsheng became more energetic.

"Just the amount you gave to others, Auntie, two buckets for a total of 600 bowls of original flavor." Shen Jianing also said seriously.

When Chen Changsheng saw the serious business appearance of the fourteen or fifteen-year-old lady in front of him, he suddenly felt that this little girl was quite cute. She was not like other ancient women who never went out and only knew how to embroider and work.

"Manager Wu, please bring me six taels of silver. We will settle the accounts every five days to save you the trouble of having to calculate money every day." Shen Bohu agreed directly according to his daughter's plan.

"I didn't expect that even though Sister Ningning is young, her business is doing so well, and her accounts are calculated so neatly. Master Shen will be blessed in the future." Qin Tingyu praised.

Shen Bohu looked proud, then his expression turned lonely again, and he sighed, "Oh, I am relieved that Ningning's business is doing well, but it is my daughter's family after all. If she gets married in the future, my Shen family will be so big. All the family property will be taken to other people’s homes. It makes me heartbroken just thinking about it. It would be great if I could recruit a son-in-law to come to my house.”

It's just that these days, male dominance is paramount, and no parent is willing to have their son as a son-in-law.

Shen Bohu felt itching with hatred when he thought that his precious daughter didn't know who would take advantage of him in the future.

Qin Tingyu said with a smile, "Indeed, Sister Ningning is good-looking and good at business. I don't know which young master can match her. But she must be handsome and suave, and it is best to be a scholar." Good young master. When you become an official in the future, sister Ning Ning will be the official wife."

The subject of the topic, Shen Jianing, turned red and shouted unhappily, "I don't want to get married yet. Even if I really want to get married, who said I have to be a scholar.

I think businessmen are also very good. The premise is that they have to have a sharp mind and not have three wives or four concubines. Of course, they must put me first, and it is best for future mothers-in-law not to interfere too much. "

Shen Bohu frowned and said displeased, "What's wrong with a man's three wives and four concubines? What's wrong with his mother-in-law? You kid..."

"Didn't Dad also have three wives and four concubines? Mom was the only one?" Shen Jianing retorted unconvinced.

Mentioning the dead wife, Shen Bohu's expression turned gloomy again, "Don't talk about it anymore, just eat the food and eat the food."

Chen Changsheng noticed Mr. Shen's expression, [Unexpectedly, this Mr. Shen is still an infatuated person. 】

The adults talked happily, and the children lowered their heads and ate happily. We drank quite a lot of wine and ate about the same amount of food. Everyone was glowing from the meal and the children were all burping.

After Chen Changsheng and his party separated from the Shen family and the Bai Xiao couple, they were going to buy some food for the evening before heading back home.

We had a luxurious lunch at Shen's house and wasted a lot of time. The ox cart went back to the village first. It would take more than an hour to return to the village later.
