Happiness System

They were silent all the way until they got home, when Sheng Yunlan told him about his idea of ​​opening a snack bar.

She still believed in her own judgment. Her eldest sister and second sister-in-law certainly had some ulterior motives, but they were not weird people.

She was responsible for paying the money, while the aunt and sister-in-law were responsible for the work and management. She took 50% of the profits, and the remaining 50% was divided equally between the two of them.

The shop mainly sells desserts, snacks and milk tea.

These things are usually only available in Hong Kong-style restaurants and are quite expensive.

Sheng Yunlan planned to go for a petite bourgeois style, and the price she set would definitely be acceptable to people with jobs and young couples.

Jing Zhan listened patiently and asked her, "So what kind of place have you decided to open? And those elder sisters and second sisters-in-law you mentioned won't leave, so you still need to hire a pastry chef."

"I haven't thought about it yet. I just suddenly had this idea. Don't I have you?" Sheng Yunlan looked at him innocently.

“???” Jing Zhan was speechless. Could it be that his own career hasn’t been established yet, so he has to build up his wife’s career first.

But seeing his wife's trusting eyes and thinking of the 40,000 yuan in her savings book, he couldn't refuse.

His married brothers said that women are very petty, and as long as they are not too extreme, their ideas and requests cannot be rejected, otherwise they will make a fuss...

The consequences are terrible!

In the end, when they get impulsive, they spend several times more time cleaning up the mess than doing the work.

These are the experiences gained by our predecessors through blood and tears.

After hearing this, Jing Zhan became afraid of marriage, so every time Sheng Yunlan gave money to her biological mother, he only dared to say a few words, but his hands never stopped taking out money.

He compromised in his heart, but he still couldn't help asking, "Are you going to invest all the 40,000 yuan?" Don't think about taking his money. Every project he is investigating now requires a huge initial investment, and he is short of money!

Sheng Yunlan thought for a moment and said, "I saw that my eldest sister and second sister-in-law are good at cooking and they are from my family, so I wanted to get them to do it together!

You should find a suitable shop first. I'll make a list and see if you have time to buy it for me. If not, I'll ask Sister Zhang next door to buy it.

I have a recipe in my hand. I will ask my eldest sister and second sister-in-law to come over and try it out someday to see if they have talent for making pastries. Then I can adjust the plan and calculate the cost. "

If she doesn't buy a shop, she can spend the 40,000 yuan casually. If she does, she will probably be more strapped for cash.

Jing Zhan nodded in agreement, knowing that he was not messing around!

The next day, Jing Zhan cooked some dumplings for himself and ate them before going out. He also thoughtfully made a fried bun for his wife and kept it warm in the pan. He also put the milk powder on the table, which he had heard someone say was good for pregnant women and children yesterday.

Sheng Yunlan was very satisfied when he saw this. You see, when a man wants to be nice to you, he doesn’t need to be taught at all!

Although Jing Zhan didn't find a suitable shop for her in the evening, he bought all the materials and tools on the list for her.

As he was not too seriously ill, Sheng Yunlan immediately asked him to find time as soon as possible to visit his eldest aunt and second sister-in-law to talk about the shop, and to come over to learn Western pastry.

The eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law came quickly, and the three women started to make a fuss. Later, Sister Zhang from next door couldn't control her excitement and joined in.

In the end, it was Sister Zhang who learned the best in Western pastry, but the eldest sister-in-law was very experienced in tea drinks and knew how to innovate, and the second sister-in-law had good mixing skills.

There are three people, one is in charge of pastries, one is in charge of beverages, and one is in charge of personnel management. If they work well together, running the shop will not be a problem at all!

Jing Zhan was also very efficient. He found a very suitable shop which used to be a Western restaurant.

A prodigal son went abroad and thought he had seen the world, so he decided to start a business and opened this western restaurant. However, due to inaccurate positioning and poor cooking skills of the chef, it went bankrupt and was sold in less than half a year.

The shop and equipment together cost 60,000 yuan. Jing Zhan bargained hard and finally got it down to 55,000 yuan.

Sheng Yunlan, who only had 40,000 yuan, was speechless. She had gone to see the shop and found that its location and decoration were good, and the equipment inside was what she needed.

If she takes over this shop, she will earn at least thirty to fifty thousand!

Moreover, the shop only needs minor modifications and can be opened before the New Year!

The other three didn't know the price of the shop yet, so Sheng Yunlan told them the location and they ran over to check it out.

When they came back, several people were very proactive. Sister Zhang said she wanted to buy shares, but my eldest aunt's family and my second sister-in-law also said they were ashamed to take shares for free.

The three of them probably discussed it in advance. They each put out 5,000 yuan, each took 10% of the shares, and Sheng Yunlan paid the lion's share, taking 70%.

This is an estimate made by a few people who don’t know the prices of the imported equipment inside, based on the shop prices and other costs.

The price of a shop is now cheaper than a house. A shop of 60 square meters in this location costs less than 30,000 yuan. They estimated the price of machines and raw materials to be 15,000 yuan...

The idea of ​​opening a shop and some of the recipes all came from Sheng Yunlan. She also put out 30,000 yuan and took 70% of the shares, but in fact she was at a disadvantage.

But compared to what Sheng Yunlan said before, that they didn't need to pay any money and would still get half of the shares, this was nothing.

They get paid for working, but Sheng Yunlan doesn't work but doesn't get paid either, so they feel embarrassed to take too many shares.

Sheng Yunlan: “???” Are there such honest people in this world?

Although the 15,000 yuan solved most of her financial problems, Sheng Yunlan was still very depressed. Sister Zhang went to work in the shop, so who would cook for her?

depressed!

"Why don't you turn on the light?" Jing Zhan turned on the light and was startled to see his wife sitting on the sofa. "Have you eaten?" He shouldn't have done anything bad, right?

"I ate it!" Sheng Yunlan sighed, "Why would I want to open a shop when I have nothing to do? Once the shop is open and Sister Zhang goes there, there will be no one to cook for me!"

Jing Zhan thought of the person his old boss mentioned when he went out to dinner with him last time, and said, "I'm worried about you being alone at home all the time, why not find a nanny?

The last old leader mentioned a soldier's widow, saying that she is very skillful and also a good cook. Should I go ask her?"

Sheng Yunlan thought for a moment and asked, "How old are you? Do you have experience in taking care of children? Can you return it if it's not suitable?"

Jing Zhan was amused by her, "It's not a forced sale. If it's not suitable, we can just pay for the car fare and send the person away! I don't know anything else, I'll make a phone call and ask!"

The cost of a landline phone was much lower than that of his mobile phone, so he simply picked up the landline, turned on the speaker and called to ask.

Seeing Sheng Yunlan nodded, he directly asked his leader to recommend him. If there was someone interested, he could come and have a look. Anyway, the man was from a county under the jurisdiction of their Jiang City, and it wasn't far away, so it wouldn't take more than a day or two.

The leader took their addresses, asked about the possible compensation, and then hung up.

Jing Zhan turned to look at his wife, "If this isn't appropriate, I'll ask mom for help and try to find someone before your shop opens."

Sheng Yunlan nodded happily, handed him the money on the table, and explained the share allocation adjustment. "The remaining money is in the drawer. Take my ID card and passbook to withdraw it! I'll leave the rest to you as well!"

Jing Zhan nodded resignedly. It seemed like he wouldn’t be able to do anything else these days!

What he didn't know was that this delay avoided a conspiracy against him.

The nanny introduced by the leader might really need this job, because she came over at noon the next day, which shows that she came here without stopping after receiving the news.

The woman's name is Zhang Xiaogui, she is 36 years old, has an only son who is 10 years old, and her family lives in the urban-rural fringe area of ​​the county town.

Her leader had introduced her to a job before, which was a front-line worker position during the National Day holiday. But before she had completed the formalities, another soldier's widow came to grab the job. According to the poor woman, that person was a relative of a leader of the factory.

She felt that it should be about the same, otherwise the other party would not have known about the work issue and made a fuss about it. She was not a formal employee and might have offended someone and been forced to quit after just a few days. So she refused the job.

The reason she went to find her leader this time was because news of demolition came out of nowhere, and her uncles and cousins ​​wanted to seize her family’s property, and she was afraid that those people would attack her son.

In this era, it is really not difficult to kill someone. Zhang Xiaogui has a fierce personality, but many accidents are hard to guard against, and she can't afford to take the risk!

Maybe the leader revealed the Jing family's conditions. Now the salary of a nanny is not high, with an average salary of two hundred. A nanny is one of the drags down the team, and the market price is one hundred and fifty.

Zhang Xiaogui offered to take only a hundred yuan as salary, but the Jing family wanted to solve her son's school enrollment problem. She wanted to find a boarding school for her son in Jiang City. Her parents' home was in another remote county town, and the child could be sent back there during the winter and summer vacations.

Sheng Yunlan's mother-in-law retired from the education system, but she did not agree immediately.

It just so happened that Sister Zhang hadn't cooked yet, so Sheng Yunlan asked Zhang Xiaogui to do it.

Seeing someone enter the kitchen, Sister Zhang pulled Sheng Yunlan and whispered, "Hey, you have the same surname as me, maybe we were from the same family eight hundred years ago!"

Sheng Yunlan smiled and joked, "Maybe you can go and study the family tree?"

Sister Zhang waved her hands and said, "My ancestors for eight generations were all poor. My grandfather's generation was so poor that the whole family only had two pairs of pants. How could there be such a thing as a family tree!"

In other words, her father was rewarded for his good deeds. He saved people and got a job, and was able to bring her brothers and sisters out of the farming world. Otherwise, who knows how many generations of her family would have been poor!

She just felt sorry for the other person and thought they were compatible, so she wanted to say a word to help.

Zhang Xiaogui’s cooking tastes pretty good. She says she learned cooking skills from her father, who is a professional banquet chef. She has been following her father around to work ever since she can remember. As soon as she was tall enough, her father started teaching her how to stir-fry and flip the wok.

"Try it for a few days to see if you can get used to it. If you can stay, I'll still give you 150 yuan as salary. I'm pregnant with twins, so it's naturally harder than other families. Of course, I'll also help you with your child's degree problem. What school he can enter depends on his grades."

Sheng Yunlan was quite satisfied with her cooking skills. She felt that she was similar to Sister Zhang in that they were both talented.

Originally, she was thinking of hiring a nanny and letting Sister Zhang continue to cook and clean for her.

After going to her in-laws' house, she still felt something was wrong. If she did that, the gossipy people would probably bombard her house with calls.

Her family isn't wealthy, so hiring two nannies to take care of her and her children is simply wishful thinking!

Although she didn't care about those pointing fingers, Jing Zhan would definitely care. Moreover, he wanted to do business and she wanted to get living expenses from him, so she had to care too.
