Dad, we are so stable, should we do something?

Chapter 3: Teahouse - Grain Rain Tea Fragrance

In fact, this teahouse was the one that Tian Xinger had just opened. She opened it to try out the business at her mother's suggestion. Later, it became famous because of storytelling. After that, she opened several small teahouses and took turns telling stories in each of them.

Later, Tian Xing'er used the money she earned from writing books with her teacher, the money from the teahouse, and the money she borrowed from her mother to open the second largest teahouse in Hu County. At first, she wanted to make it the largest, but in order to keep a low profile, Tian Xing'er reduced the size.

Fortunately, this teahouse did bring Tian Xinger considerable profits. Now in Hu County, the income from this teahouse alone is equal to the total income of all other teahouses and even more.

Tonight's meal, perhaps because of the presence of the eldest brother, everyone ate slowly, as if they were afraid of being criticized for eating too fast. Soon, when it was time to leave the table, Tian Xing'er was stopped by her father again. She was thinking quickly about which student she had offended recently and whether she would be reported again.

"Don't worry, you have been behaving well recently. Have you gotten into trouble again?" Magistrate Tian looked at his daughter and suspected that she had done something wrong again.

"No, Dad, how could you think of me like that? I just have the habit of self-reflection." Tian Xing'er gave an awkward smile.

"Okay, I won't beat around the bush with you. I heard that there are many teahouses in this city, and they are all yours. I didn't expect you to know how to plan. The locations of these teahouses are all very good. Just now, your teahouse helped the county government catch a suspect."

Unexpectedly, her father started praising his own small teahouse. Tian Xing'er panicked a little, thinking this was a sign of bad things to come.

"Dad, just ask! As long as it's something your daughter can do, I will do my best. If it really doesn't work, I can always ask mom for help. We can always solve the problem, right?"

Recalling the past when she was unwilling to help her father, he would use her eldest brother to discipline her. Tian Xing'er knew that today was the day when her eldest brother was present, so she simply raised her hands in surrender.

"Your father, I think your teahouse is a place where all kinds of people gather. People speak freely here, and all kinds of strange stories emerge one after another. It can be said to be a hub for information exchange.

Besides, our teahouse is now considered the most famous brand in the county! Especially recently, the storybooks you have compiled have been very popular, and there are a lot of guests every day. So, Dad is thinking about whether he can set up an "intelligence collection department".

This way, we can help Dad pass on information quickly and let us know about any disturbance in the county as early as possible. When the time is right, after this "Intelligence Collection Department" becomes bigger and stronger, we may be able to run some information trading business. Of course, the specific charging standards can be determined according to the difficulty of the information. "

"It sounds like a good idea, but Dad, it costs money for you to buy the information." Tian Xing'er said, blinking her big, lively eyes.

"You little guy, you are so young, why is your mind full of money? Dad is talking to you about serious matters!" County Magistrate Tian shook his head helplessly.

"I see. Please continue." Tian Xing'er responded obediently.

"Well... Dad plans to help you find some reliable intelligence gathering talents. Your grandfather has also arranged some people for Dad before, and they are all very capable. How about this, I will provide the manpower and you will provide the funds, and we will cooperate for mutual benefit and split the profits 50-50. How about it?" County Magistrate Tian looked at his daughter eagerly.

"No! It has to be 30% and 70% respectively. After all, I have to bear all the initial expenses for opening the store, and there may not be much business in the beginning. At most, I can take on some work of finding pets for wealthy families. If you calculate it all, I will lose a lot. Not only do I have to bear the extra expenses of feeding these people, but you don't even pay a penny." Tian Xing'er's mind was as clear as a mirror. She had long seen through her father's true nature.

"Oh, why did I raise such a greedy girl like you?" County Magistrate Tian pretended to be heartbroken, shaking his head and sighing.

"Okay, Dad, it's getting late. My daughter should go back and rest. Please give me a straight answer as to whether a 30% to 70% split of the profits is okay. If not, then let's forget it." After Tian Xing'er said this, she made a gesture to turn around and leave.

"Okay, okay, I'm really scared of you." Seeing that he couldn't persuade his daughter, County Magistrate Tian had to compromise and agree.

Seeing that her father agreed, Tian Xing'er stopped and turned back, "Dad, this business belongs to the two of us. Please ask the government to take care of us in the future, but you can't tell anyone that I opened this business."

"I know. Your mother secretly gave you a special household registration. No one knows that these teahouses belong to you. It's just that the names of your teahouses are too ugly. Grain Rain Tea Fragrance is not elegant enough. Those small tea stalls are even worse. East Lane and Northwest Stall are all weird."

"Oh, as long as I can make money, the name is not important. I can't remember it. These names are just locations. How convenient and easy to remember."

"That's true."

"Then when will you send someone? It's a bit of a waste to build an intelligence network in our small county. Can we expand it to the whole Jiangnan area?"

"That's right, do you have money?"

"My mother has it, and you have it too." Tian Xing'er thought that her father had taken advantage of her so much, so she had to make up for it and use her father's power to open more tea stalls to make more money. "By the way, Dad, while we are setting up this intelligence network, you can also make a county annals. Every week, one cent will be given to each village to report on the major and minor events in the county. As for the villagers, give them more than ten copies in each village, so that the people can also know what happened in our county."

"Well, it's indeed a good idea! You, your brain becomes smart as long as it involves making money! Your brother has returned, I wonder how your studies are going recently? I am letting you stay here now to help you! Your eldest brother is just too strict, not as easy-going as I was back then." The father said with a smile.

"Dad, that's your biological son!" Tian Xing'er responded helplessly.

The father scratched his head and said, "Alas, I don't understand why I am so strict with my sons. However, I will personally take them to the county government office to learn practical work tomorrow. Isn't this a big help to you? This way, you can avoid a whole morning of classes!"

"Okay, okay, thank you, Dad!" Tian Xing'er hurriedly thanked him. She knew that every time her father took advantage of her, he would always find some reasons to convince her, proving that he was not taking advantage for nothing, but was a person who made sacrifices and worked hard.

At this relaxed and happy moment, a mysterious team quietly entered Hu County. Unfortunately, since Tian Xing'er and his team had just finalized the intelligence network tonight, no one really noticed the arrival of this team. This team will become one of the key forces to disrupt the situation in Hu County in the future, but no one knows it at the moment, and no one has even thought about it.
