Chapter 519: Chapter 519: Unreliable
Some families rejoiced, while others mourned.
There were not many people in the small town on ordinary days. Business was naturally good on the 1st, 4th, and 7th, but there were not many people on other days.
When Liu Zhi’er’s shop opened, the inevitable friction was created with the surrounding small stalls.
Especially Aunt Cao’s planed noodle stall.
That day, as Aunt Cao was sighing while sitting at her empty stall, Liu Sisi arrived!
“Good morning, Aunt Cao.”
Seeing Liu Sisi, Aunt Cao first felt joy, then her face fell, and she pretended to wipe the table without seeing her.
“Aunt Cao, are you upset with Sisi?”
Aunt Cao was indeed irritated, but she sighed and beckoned Liu Sisi.
“Ah, your stomach is getting bigger and bigger. Sit down and talk.” After all, she was not a heartless person.
Liu Sisi was very satisfied with Aunt Cao’s attitude and sat down gently on the stool.
“Aunt Cao, how’s your business lately?”
This question only aggravated Aunt Cao: “Mrs. Sub-Captain, aren’t you deliberately asking me?”
Liu Sisi also found herself unnecessary, and hurriedly laughed.
“Hehe, Aunt Cao, I’m here today to help you, depending on whether you are willing or not.”
“How can you help me?”
This question piqued Aunt Cao’s interest.
Liu Sisi smiled: “Aunt Cao, you know my Second Sister opened a breakfast shop over there. My intention is straightforward, I want you to go to the shop and sell planed noodles. You collect whatever amount you sell. As for the rent, just give me the same amount you pay here. How do you think about that?”
Liu Sisi had discussed this with Liu Zhi’er in advance.
Money was not to be made in her shop until mealtime when Liu Zhi’er would be so busy that she could hardly manage.
Not to mention that from time to time, some children would come over to disturb her, depriving her of any rest. Furthermore, some infatuated men were attracted to Liu Zhi’er’s beauty, which annoyed her immensely.
By chance****, she happened to pass by Aunt Cao’s planed noodle stall and found that there wasn’t even a single customer, which gave her the idea.
Since they were in a cooperative relationship, Liu Sisi didn’t intend to hide anything from Aunt Cao, so she explained the situation in detail.
Only then did Aunt Cao feel relieved, patting her chest and beaming: “Sisi, don’t worry! As long as I, Aunt Cao, am here, those who want to come will have to ask my soup ladle if it agrees!”
“Thank you so much, Aunt Cao!”
Liu Sisi was overjoyed! At last, a worry was resolved.
Upon leaving Aunt Cao’s stall, Liu Sisi stood in front of the bookstore.
Perhaps because of her state of mind, Liu Sisi put down many things after learning about her origin, and she felt her spirit changed a lot.
When leaving, Nan Tianzong handed her several shops to manage.
In addition to the known bookstore, wine-house, and Silver Pavilion, there were also the Carriage Shop and Yihong Courtyard! Over the past half-month, she had scrutinized the accounts of these shops and decided to transfer power to the original managers and purchasers according to the original plan.
After all, she had managed these shops for almost a year, and now it was an easy task for her.
After entering the bookstore and reviewing the accounts as usual, Di Cheng couldn’t help coming forward, his face flushed with shyness, as he saw Liu Sisi stand up to leave.
