Siheyuan: Mastery started in the 50s

He Yuzhu nodded in agreement. "You are right. We need to learn more about the market and understand the needs of customers."

The next morning, Wang Qiang and He Yuzhu came to the market. They visited several soy product stores, carefully observed the sales situation of each store, and chatted with the store owners, learning a lot of useful information.

"Wang Qiang, I found that many customers like healthy soy products, especially some young people who attach great importance to healthy eating," said He Yuzhu.

Wang Qiang nodded in agreement. "Yes, we can add some healthy soy products to the tofu shop, such as low-fat tofu, tofu salad and the like."

A few months later, the tofu shop finally opened. Wang Qiang and He Yuzhu stood at the door of the shop, full of excitement and anticipation. The decoration of the shop was simple and elegant, exuding a faint bean fragrance, which attracted many customers to come in and taste it.

A young customer walked into the store and saw the low-fat tofu and tofu salad on the counter, and his eyes lit up. "These soy products look healthy, I want to buy some to try."

Wang Qiang greeted them warmly: "Hello, these are our store's specialty products, guaranteed to be healthy and delicious."

The customer bought some soy products and said with satisfaction: "It tastes really good. I will come here often in the future."

As time went by, the tofu shop's business got better and better, and Wang Qiang and He Yuzhu's efforts finally paid off. Wang Qiang was filled with a sense of accomplishment, and he knew that as long as they maintained a positive attitude and continued to work hard, their business would definitely get better and better.

One evening, Wang Qiang was busy in the store when he suddenly received a call. It was an old friend of his who said excitedly, "Wang Qiang, I heard that you recently opened a tofu shop and your business is very good."

Wang Qiang smiled and replied: "Yes, thanks to everyone's support, our tofu shop can achieve today's success."

The old friend continued, “I have a restaurant here and would like to have long-term cooperation and order your soy products.”

Wang Qiang was very excited after hearing this. "Great, thank you for your recommendation. We will definitely support you with all our strength."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Qiang immediately went to find He Yuzhu and told him the good news. The two discussed the details of the cooperation in detail and decided to seize this opportunity to make the business bigger and better.

Wang Qiang and He Yuzhu's tofu shop business is booming, and they are busy every day. However, Wang Qiang has an indelible shadow in his heart - he has some complaints about a country girl. This girl is called Xiaomei, a relative of Xu Damao. She came to the courtyard a few months ago to help take care of the tofu shop, but her work attitude and some behaviors made Wang Qiang dissatisfied.

Xiaomei is from the countryside. Although she is simple, she is not very adaptable to city life and the work of the tofu shop. She often makes some low-level mistakes, such as mixing up orders, ruining the tofu, and sometimes even accidentally spilling detergent into the tofu bucket. These problems give Wang Qiang a headache.

One day, Wang Qiang was busy processing orders in the store when he suddenly heard a flustered noise coming from the kitchen. He walked over quickly and saw Xiaomei with a panicked look on her face and tofu dregs scattered all over the floor.

"Xiaomei, what's wrong with you?" Wang Qiang couldn't help but raise his voice, and the resentment in his heart surged up.

"I'm sorry, Brother Wang, I accidentally knocked over the tofu bucket." Xiaomei lowered her head, her voice full of apology.

Wang Qiang took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew Xiaomei didn't mean it, but her carelessness did make the work more difficult. "Xiaomei, I know you're here to help, but can you be more careful? If this goes on, our business will be affected."

Xiaomei raised her head with tears in her eyes. "Brother Wang, I really tried hard, but I don't know what to do."

Seeing Xiaomei's pitiful appearance, Wang Qiang's heart softened. He knew that his complaints about her were due to work pressure, but Xiaomei had no ill intentions, she just lacked experience. He walked up to her, patted her on the shoulder, and softened his tone. "Okay, Xiaomei, don't be sad. Let's work together in the future, and I will teach you how to do it."

Xiaomei nodded, wiped her tears, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Brother Wang, I will definitely work harder."

After this incident, Wang Qiang decided to take time to teach Xiaomei more so that she could get familiar with the work of the tofu shop as soon as possible. He knew that complaining and blaming would not solve the problem, and only patience and guidance could really help Xiaomei.

In the following days, Wang Qiang took time out every day to teach Xiaomei how to make tofu, how to handle orders, and even some small work details. He found that although Xiaomei was clumsy, she had a serious attitude towards learning, and gradually her work ability improved.

One night, Wang Qiang and He Yuzhu were resting in the yard, and He Yuzhu mentioned Xiaomei. "Wang Qiang, Xiaomei seems to have made a lot of progress recently. You've taught her well."

Wang Qiang smiled and felt satisfied. "Yes, she actually works very hard, but she just lacks experience. If we give her more time and patience, she will definitely do better."

He Yuzhu nodded in agreement. "With a good teacher like you, she will definitely learn it."

Wang Qiang was full of confidence. He knew that as long as he remained patient, Xiaomei would be able to do the job. Life in the courtyard was still peaceful and beautiful. Wang Qiang found a sense of belonging and accomplishment here.

One day, Xiaomei excitedly ran to Wang Qiang, holding a plate of freshly made tofu. "Brother Wang, look, this is the tofu I made myself, how does it taste?"

Wang Qiang took a bite and nodded with satisfaction. "It tastes great, Xiaomei. You have improved a lot."

After hearing this, Xiaomei smiled happily. "Thank you, Brother Wang. I will continue to work hard."

Wang Qiang felt a warm feeling in his heart. He knew that Xiaomei's progress was not only the result of her personal growth, but also the result of his patience and hard work. He felt extremely relieved and satisfied.

A few days later, Wang Qiang received a large order from a newly opened vegetarian restaurant, hoping to supply their soy products for a long time. Wang Qiang and He Yuzhu discussed the details of the cooperation in detail and decided to seize this opportunity to make the business bigger and better.

"Wang Qiang, we must prepare well. This is a great opportunity." He Yuzhu said excitedly.

Wang Qiang nodded, his heart full of anticipation. "Yes, we must seize this opportunity and make better products."

In order to get this big order, Wang Qiang and He Yuzhu worked until late every day, but they were full of energy. Xiaomei also actively participated and worked with them, and the atmosphere in the whole tofu shop became tense and orderly.
