husband in another world

The shop was renamed Zhouji Cooked Food, and many new varieties were added.For example, roasted chicken, elbows, trotters, pork heads, and stick bones with layers of meat are added.Most people like this kind of stick bone. They like the taste of Zhou Ji, and they buy it to drink soup at home. Besides, it is not expensive, and it costs a penny each.

There is no adjustment on the duck products, it is still those things, divided into two types: spicy and spiced.

In addition to potato chips, kelp buckles, and small snails, spicy crabs are added to the snacks.Spicy crab is a high-end snack, and you can sell it for thirty yuan a catty.

At the same time, added chicken types, such as chicken feet, chicken heads, chicken necks, chicken gizzards and so on.

In order to attract customers and reduce the fear that the ghost shop brought to the customers in the past, Zhou Jing invited an opera troupe to sing at the door of the shop for three days.The songs are all comedies, and none of them have anything to do with historical dramas, tragic ghosts and gods.

Before adding it, some people saw Zhou Ji’s special decoration from the outside and wanted to bring their wives and children to experience it, and they all came here this time.After ordering a few stacks of snacks, you can sit on the hanging chair and look out from the floor-to-ceiling windows, just in time to see the corner of the opera on the specially built platform.

There is also a discount on the price. In the first three days of opening, all are cheaper, the most cheaper is five renminbi, and the least is three renminbi cheaper.

There is also a buy ten get one free offer.For whole ducks and roast chickens, if you buy one, you will get a cumulative card carved out of thin wood.The roast chicken I bought had a picture of a roast chicken engraved on the board, and the duck I bought had a picture of a duck engraved on it. Zhou Jing personally wrote the word "Zhou Ji" with a brush, and there was a date composed of unique Arabic numerals. You can redeem one for free.

At first, some people didn't believe it. They were afraid that Zhou Jing would set up a trap. He would not give it away after buying ten, or give him a slap in the face of a big duck or chicken, so relatives bought them and put together accumulation cards to redeem.

Although the exchange is not a cash purchase, Zhou Jing's attitude is still very good, and he opened it up for them to choose, just like usual sales.

Zhou Jing was not unhappy when he picked the big one because he didn’t need any money. He had a good attitude and said with a smile, “This duck is very fat and weighs five and a half catties. You take it well, and I will take away the ten accumulation cards.”

The old man and the relatives around him who provided the accumulative card opened their eyes wide and asked in disbelief: "I really don't need money. I just took such a big duck for nothing."

Zhou Jing smiled and said: "You have accumulative cards. Our accumulative cards are for anonymous consumption. Whether you use them for yourself or give them to others, or lose them and be picked up by others, we will replace them. So you must keep the accumulative cards well. , the store will not be responsible for the loss, and you will take care of the loss yourself."

Those few people understood and knew that this thin wooden board could really be exchanged for ducks and roast chickens, and immediately regretted giving away the accumulated cards.The old man holding the roast duck was so white that the duck smiled and went back to publicize it, saying how delicious and suitable the food in Zhou Ji was, and if he bought ten of them, he would give the duck to him. Inadvertently gave Zhou Ji a reputation.

Zhou Ji also got a membership card.The membership card is the same thin board as the accumulation card, palm-sized, exquisitely carved, engraved with the four gentlemen of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, painted with different colors according to the personality of the four gentlemen, and each has a special Arabic numeral number on it, starting from 001 .

The membership card can be recharged, and there is no upper limit activity.However, it is divided into several levels, 15% off all meals within 20 taels, 25% off all meals within [-] taels, [-]% off all meals within [-] taels, [-]% off within [-] taels, and so on, the highest enjoys [-]% off fold.Members also have a membership day. Based on the birthday of the member left by the member at that time, buy five get one free. No matter what you buy, you can get one catty for five catties. In addition, you will also get an exquisite gift, sometimes it is food, sometimes it is It's different every month.

The consumption records of the members are all recorded in the registration book, which is kept by Shen Mo, with a copy of the stub and a copy on the counter.When leaving, no matter which book is locked, because the amount of money charged by each member is recorded on it, and each person leaves a few pages.How much money is consumed by this membership card at what time every year and how much money is left is recorded, and must be signed by the person who came to spend at that time.

At the beginning, Shen Mo and Lin Lin thought that asking someone to charge so much money at once was without evidence and could not sign any contract, so no one would dare to pre-charge the membership.

Unexpectedly, several old customers at the previous stall heard that the membership was so strong, one recharged five taels on the spot, and the other topped up ten taels on the spot.Later, at noon, there were a lot of people, and everyone came in line. At this time, regular customers who recharged their membership came, and they directly held up a sign to declare that they were members, so they could enjoy the right of first purchase.

One of the sellers, Shen Mo and Shen Lin, stopped immediately and served the members first.

Some customers who waited in line for half a day asked why.

Zhou Jing replied with a smile: "This is the privilege of our members, and they have the right to purchase first than ordinary users."

Someone immediately asked how to become a member.

"Members need to recharge money, as much as you want, and you will be given a discount based on the money you recharge."

Hearing about recharging money, many people would rather wait in line than become members.

However, this member unintentionally satisfies the superiority of dignitaries. In order to satisfy their vanity in front of friends, many young princes deliberately recharge their membership and bring their friends to buy things when there are many people. a special priority right.

Inadvertently led several young masters to recharge their memberships.

When the dividends came at the end of the month, Shen Lin was dumbfounded seeing the money he got.

"Brother, did you calculate correctly? You actually gave me 75 taels of silver, and I only took [-]% of the bonus. Did you give too much?"

Now that Shen Lin didn't carry Wang Ren's back on the dividends, he trusted Wang Ren very much. Although they were not married, they looked like a young couple.

I'm afraid I'll get busy collecting money on weekdays. Everyone collects their own money. Whoever sells something is responsible for collecting the money before selling the next one.But the accounts at night are all kept by Shen Mo, and Shen Mo knows best about a month's income.

He himself didn't expect that there would be such a difference in income between those with a shop and those without a shop, so he smirked and said, "That's right, the 90% bonus is that much. It should have been 15 taels, but last time you bought a shop, your brother-in-law paid you [-] taels." The two silver coins will be deducted this month."

Shen Lin said foolishly: "Oh my god, wouldn't it be possible to earn back the capital of the shop in a month and still have more money? Why is it so easy to make money with a shop?"

Wang Ren was also amazed, but he saw it more deeply than Shen Lin. "Xiaolin, money is the worst thing to earn. It's my brother-in-law's clever mind who came up with many novel ideas and our food is really clean and delicious, which makes you feel that money is easy to earn. Why don't you think about it If it was so easy to make money, why would Zhou Da sell the shop to us at such a cheap price? Why do other shopkeepers clamor all day long that they can’t sell for much money and want to exchange money, but our family is the only one making a lot of money. It’s ability and wealth.”

Zhou Jingdao: "The main reason is that our family supplies the shops in the town. Now there are 160 shops in the town that need our work. The gross profit in January is about 200 taels, which accounts for the majority. Besides, the recharge this month The large number of members is considered a novelty, and all the money is in it, so our family will earn so much this month. But even if it gradually stabilizes, one [-] taels of silver a month is a steady profit."

After doing business with Zhou Jing in the recent period, Wang Ren admired Zhou Jing so much that he had to ask himself every day whether Zhou Jing was really that ignorant rascal in the village.Turning around and seeing Zhou Jing circling around Shen Mo, he felt it again, only Zhou Jing could do it, he acted shrewd and capable to outsiders, and treated Shen Mo with a stern look.

"This is your monthly schedule for this month. Now you have a total of five orders in your hand. The most is 35 catties a day, and the least is [-] catties a day. According to the proportion, a total of two taels of silver will be commissioned."

Erliang is just a monthly commission, and there was a big bonus before, which was several times this.Now Wang Ren already has seven taels of silver in his hands.

"Okay, the money is collected, and all the salesmen and workers outside are called in to line up to send them monthly bills, one by one, no one is missing."

As the business of the Zhou family grew bigger and bigger, chicken products were added, and ten new companies in the village signed contracts with the Zhou family.Many who could not sign the contract hired someone to work at the Zhou family. Now there are fifteen workers in the Zhou family factory, ten male workers and five female workers.

Wang Ren and Cheng Yu took turns to oversee the work, working in shifts.This is a compensation of thirty Wen per day.Both Wang Ren and Cheng Yu were very willing, and they didn't complain about the delay in sales.After all, sales are not profitable every day. Sometimes I take sausages out to sell, and there are often leftovers. This part needs to be responsible for the profit and loss.

Cheng Yu took four taels, and the remaining four newcomers, the least one could get seven or eight hundred wen, all of them were laughing from ear to ear.There was bonus money before, and this is available every month. Thinking about getting money even if they don’t open next month, the few salesmen are so beautiful that they have a big nose bubbling.

The rest of the workers, regardless of gender, are paid 25 renminbi a day. They have two days off in January. A strong one.This directly led to the improvement of the status of the women who did business in the Zhou family at home. They could obviously straighten their backs when they spoke, and occasionally bought some rouge, gouache, hand cream and other things. I feel sorry for those dozens of copper coins, and I have to say yes cheerfully.If you want to buy something big and expensive at home, you have to report it for consultation.

As for the fact that a man can make money every day, unlike the men of other people's families, his status is really high.Don't talk about saying one thing at home, even when going out, other men will consciously bow their heads.What do men compare to, the other is who has the ability to make their mothers and children well-fed and well-clothed, this is the most honorable thing.

As for the Zhou family itself, their status has long since become incomparable, and now everyone calls Zhou Jing and Shen Mo masters when they go out.

With so many workers hired at home, the family is freed, and they are only busy with the shop during the day, and can lie down comfortably, or read picture books and chatter when they come back.

Shen Mo and Shen Lin can read the picture books that are not obtrusive now. Shen Mo didn't read the picture books that night, but was making quilts. Zhou Jing suddenly remembered that Shen Lin would be going out in a few days.There was no reluctance in my heart, but I almost laughed out loud.

Zhou Jing leaned forward and said shamelessly, "I'm making a double quilt for my younger brother. I'll also make a few beds for ourselves sometime. I've already said that a single quilt is inconvenient, but a double quilt is more convenient."

Shen Mo lowered his head, his cheeks were blushing, he looked embarrassed, and said shyly: "This is not for my little brother, but for the two of us."

Zhou Jing froze for a moment, "Big red?"

"Yeah." Shen Mo was even more embarrassed, his head was almost buried under the quilt. "I, the two of us haven't had a quilt yet. I think we'll be happy if I make a few bright red quilts for us."

After Zhou Jing heard this, he didn't do or say something as usual to make up for the little husband's regret, but passed away with a haha.

Shen Mo felt a little uncomfortable, feeling that Zhou Jing didn't value him anymore.He also thought about the family's money and other things, Zhou Jing has always been in charge of him, the things he wanted to buy were not short of him, and the food was cooked in different ways, so he felt that he was used to hypocrisy, so he comforted himself. I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart.

Some people always want to trample you to death when you are down, and cling to you when you are prosperous, and want to follow you when you fall down. Wang Fen is one of them.

The more she looked at her daughter, the more she felt that she was like a flower and a jade, and she was indeed a village flower recognized by the village.

She clicked her tongue twice and said, "I knew that my daughter is a blessed one, that is, she should enjoy the life of being served by others, as expected."

Zhang Ju gave her mother a white look, angry and jealous, and said in a sour tone: "Mother, you are dreaming in broad daylight. I am good-looking and recognized as a village flower in the village. What's the use? I can't live a better life now." A twin!"

Wang Fen didn't take it seriously, and sneered, "My silly girl, don't forget who Zhou Jing had in his heart before. Besides, Shen Mo's two sons will definitely not be able to have a son. The Zhou family must have a son to inherit the family business, so Zhou Jing married again. It will be a matter of time. Don’t forget what Zhou Jingqiong looked like at that time. You hooked your fingers and smiled, and a fleshy bastard was sent to you. Now all you have to do is Hook your fingers, keep Zhou Jing from making you dizzy, and immediately carry it in to enjoy the blessings."

The flickering of Zhang Ju's eyes is obviously tempting.She is this year, and she is older in the village, but the reason why she is still unwilling to get married at such an old age is because she has high spirits and does not want to marry a mud-legged person in the village.Turning around the stove every day, calculating every penny of firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea, I have to farm with my family every year. I can't make much money through exhaustion.

In the past, her mother told her how beautiful she was, and the men of the same age in the village also hugged her, even when they were playing house, they rushed to ask her to be a wife.If there is something delicious that she is reluctant to eat, she will steal it out for her to eat, then she will understand what practical benefits beauty can bring her.

It is also because of this, she knew her appearance was different since she was a child, and the man she will marry when she grows up must be the kind of rich son. What she has to do every day is to dress herself up beautifully, go out Take a stroll, buy whatever clothes you see, regardless of the money, and buy whatever rouge and gouache make you look the same.Clothes opened their mouths, rice stretched out their hands, and the family servants gathered to serve her.

Although Zhou Jing was far from what she expected, after all, the young master she imagined was well-read in poetry and books, and Zhou Jing was at most a few characters because of his life awareness.But at present, it is the closest to her goal. She feels that it should not be a problem to buy a few servants to serve her with the current financial resources of the Zhou family. She can reluctantly hook him up.

Zhang Ju painted her eyebrows with powder, dressed up in front of the mirror, and wore her favorite white dress. She thought she was as beautiful as a fairy, and walked away with a lotus flower in her hand.

After knocking a few times, the door of Zhou's house was opened from the inside, and Zhang Ju smiled softly.

"Brother Jing, I'll come to see you...ah!..."

Shen Mo was sitting in the shop, lying listlessly on the counter. The considerable sales volume recorded in the ledger spread on the counter could not attract his attention.

Shen Lin noticed his abnormality, and asked with concern: "Brother, what's the matter with you, you are absent-minded, and you don't like to read the account book, don't you usually count it over and over without letting go?"

Shen Mo raised his eyelids and gave him a sleepy look.

"I don't know what your brother-in-law is up to lately. He secretly hides from me and doesn't even come to the shop."

Shen Lin said: "Something is wrong with him recently."

Although Zhou Jing has been very abnormal recently, often shutting himself in the room, making some strange things, drying the wet cloth in the yard at night, and putting it away during the day so that no one can see it, Shen Shen Mo didn't think much about it.

I don't want to find that the atmosphere is not right as soon as I enter the village at night. A few open-mouthed women and idlers gather together to chat. When they see Zhou's carriage from a distance, they cover their mouths and smile. That smile is not funny, but a gloating smile.

Shen Mo frowned and said, "Could it be that something happened at home?"

"Brother-in-law is at home these few days, so it shouldn't be possible." Wang Ren thought for a while, "I'm afraid that someone has nothing to do, and they have to rush to get together."

Among these people is Shen Wen, Shen Wen is Wang Baichuan's aunt, he is a Shuang'er but he looks down on Shuang'er, thinking that Shuang'er can't give birth to a boy, but it is special for him to be able to give birth to a boy, he is blessed.

In the past, they looked down upon the two brothers of the Shen family simply because of the gender of their twins, but now they looked down on them because they dared to live better than him, and were favored more than his twin who could give birth to a boy.

Today I found a chance for revenge, so I couldn't wait to yell: "If you want me to say that there is no one who doesn't like a boy, there is no man who is not afraid of breaking the incense. No matter how much it hurts in the past, it's useless to be spoiled, no, As soon as Zhang Ju made a move, Zhou Jing obediently took out five taels of silver, and in a few days, this newcomer would be brought in."

Shen Mo's complexion suddenly sank, this was poking him at the worst and most painful spot, and he became ruthless at that time, snatched the whip from Wang Ren's hand, raised it high and slammed it on the cow, the little boy The cow howled and rushed forward.

Shen Wen was so frightened that he scrambled and dodged, and was almost trampled by a bull's hoof.

He sat slumped on the side of the road, his legs were limp, and he was still in shock. "Is that Shuang'er crazy?"

Rationally, Shen Mo believed in Zhou Jing, but emotionally, he completely went against the grain, thinking wildly.The whip in his hand swung faster and faster, bringing up a cloud of dust.

Shen Mo jumped down before the bullock cart stabilized, and when he entered the yard and saw Zhou Jing, he asked angrily, "You gave Zhang Ju money, five taels of silver, why did you give it?"

Zhou Jing looked at Shen Mo with a guilty conscience, and said in a low voice, "No way."

Zhou Jing's attitude made Shen Mo feel sad for a while, and he misunderstood Zhou Jing, thinking that what the villagers said was true, Zhou Jing gave Zhang Ju five taels of silver as a bride price.After all, that Zhou Jing was very obsessed with Zhang Ju in the past.

Shen Mo bit his lip, not knowing how to speak to Zhou Jing calmly.

He heard himself asking word by word, "Why don't you give it?"

Zhou Jing covered his face aggrievedly, the young daughter-in-law seemed extremely shy when she saw her new husband-in-law.

"Because I beat someone."

"What, you beat Zhang Ju?"

"Did you beat Zhang Ju?"

"You hit a little girl?"

A stack of three voices repeated together, they all questioned Zhou Jing.Zhou Jing felt that he was so overwhelmed by these three sounds that he couldn't even raise his head.

"I, I didn't do it on purpose. I was working hard in the yard. When I heard someone knocking on the door, I went out to open it. Tmd, who knew that there was a female ghost with disheveled hair outside, her face was pale and pale, and there were two red ghosts. She has a big face and a big mouth, and she is dressed in white. As soon as I opened the door, she smiled at me with a big mouth. I thought it was Mrs. Zhou who was dissatisfied and came to me for comparison. I was beaten out with one punch! Then... Then I lost five taels of silver."

Shen Mo: "..."

Shen Lin: "Hehe (speechless)..."

Wang Ren: "'Pfft' (I couldn't hold back my laughter), hahahaha..."

Zhou Jing was really wronged, he hid at home well, did not provoke anyone, why did he pretend to be a female ghost to scare him?Well now everyone points at his nose and laughs at his timidity.

I don’t know who said it, but the next day it spread throughout Wang’s Village. It turned out that the five taels of silver that Zhang Ju took away from Zhou’s family was not a betrothal gift at all, but that Zhang Ju failed to seduce a man and was treated as a female ghost instead. Beat up, compensation for medicine.Now Zhang Ju became the laughing stock of the whole village instead, hiding away and not daring to leave the house.
