Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“You’re hiring two?!” Aunt Wang was surprised.

“Yes. One for the day, the other for the afternoon and night.”

Lin Xiaoyue thought of something.

“Aunt Wang, are you interested in becoming the manager?”

Aunt Wang was quick in her work, good at calculations, and a trustworthy person. She trusted her.

“Three days of leave a month, 5 taels a month.”

Aunt Wang was shocked.

…..

“So much?” She was excited.

“Hehe, not at all. If you manage to hit the monthly sales target, there’ll be a bonus.”

Aunt Wang’s expression was blank, obviously not understanding Lin Xiaoyue’s words.

“Well, what 1 mean is that at the beginning of each month, I will set a target revenue for that month. At the end of the month, if the target is hit or exceeded, I’ll give you an additional reward in addition to your salary.” Lin Xiaoyue explained.

Aunt Wang did not look as confused as before. Although she heard some new words that she did not understand, she understood what Lin Xiaoyue meant.

“Can 1 do it? Also, if I’m at the shop, then you…”

5 taels of silver a month, where would she find such a job?

Moreover, it was not a short-term one.

“Won’t I have Erya here with me?” Lin Xiaoyue smiled

“She’ll come with me to the market in the morning. In the afternoon, she’ll help me with make the cold cakes.”

“And at the dock…”

Her son was now selling cold cakes in the villages within ten miles and could earn 300 wen a day.

Yue’er mentioned that she wanted to set up a stall at the dock.

She could earn 1 wen for each bowl of cold cake she sold. She could earn more than her son.

Now that Yue’er wanted her to watch the shop, she wouldn’t be able to go to the dock.

She was fine with it.

However, it was a pity if Yue’er had to give up the business at the dock.

“Oh, I’ve asked Li Xiao to check it out. He said that the administrative office is planning to manage the stalls there. They’re not allowing anyone to set up stalls for now.”

Aunt Wang was surprised.

“That’s a pity.”

“Hehe, it’s fine. It’s a good thing. When the planning is done, we can go and rent a stall. It’ll be a good place for the second branch of Liu Shi’s Eatery.”

Aunt Wang smiled.

“What a great idea!”

As they spoke, the two of them returned to Daishi Village.

The next day.

It was another busy day. Today, Wang Erya also came to help.

Early in the morning, Lin Xiaoyue mixed more than 10 buckets of lime water and let Wang Erya filter it. She also helped Liu Shi sell cold cakes.

Lin Xiaoyue and Aunt Wang continued to set up the stall in the market.

Before she packed up, Li Xiao arrived.

He brought the measurements of the furniture designed by her.

“Uncle Jiang already wrote down the measurements. As for the furniture, you can go to Uncle Sun later when you get back,” Li Xiao passed the blueprint to Lin Xiaoyue.

Lin Xiaoyue opened the drawing and looked at it. She realized that the measurements had been added to her original drawing.

“Sure! I’ll go to Uncle Sun and ask him to make more furniture before the renovation starts,” Lin Xiaoyue said as she kept the drawing.

“Well, I’m going to the brick kiln to buy bricks and order other materials later, so I won’t be going back at noon. We’ll go back together in the afternoon.” Li Xiao said..
