"What? Open a branch? Let me be the store manager?"

"No, no, no! Tiantian, look at me. I only went to elementary school and can barely read. I know you want to help your aunt, so I'll go to the branch store and manage the kitchen for you. The store manager should be an educated one, right?"

After hearing what Jiang Tian said, Yao Huifen waved her hands frantically in anxiety.

The good life she has now is better than she could have imagined in her dreams.

When she was the daughter-in-law of the He family, she was as tired as an old ox. She farmed for the He family, raised pigs, and herded cattle. She was responsible for all the hard work. She was busy all year round, but her pockets were cleaner than her face. When her daughter's coat was too small, and she wanted to buy a new coat for her daughter, she had to be beaten before she could get money from her husband.

But now, she works in Hu Qiongfang's store, where she can have two days off every month, with food and accommodation provided, and a salary of 35 yuan at the end of the month. She can also get extra overtime pay for working overtime.

Although she knew it might not be a good idea to think this way, after saving ten big unity notes in her pocket, Yao Huifen often thought that if she had not married, and had been able to find a job in a restaurant at the age of sixteen like she does now, saving three hundred yuan a year, she would have saved more than four thousand yuan in fourteen years.

Four thousand dollars!

This "huge sum of money" was enough for Yao Huifen to build a row of stylish storefronts on the provincial road, with a large yard at the back.

Yao Huifen knew that she thought this way, and in the eyes of the world, she was not a good woman who cared about her family.

But so what?

Isn't it enough for her to live happily?

After realizing this, after the Chinese New Year, Yao Huifen forced her daughter He Chunling to go back to school.

This is how her life will be, but her daughter still has a chance to change her destiny.

Girls are capable and can earn money, so why do they have to get married and work like a slave for other families?

If all the men in the world were like her ex-husband He Zhiyong, she would rather let her daughter be an old aunt in her parents' home for the rest of her life!

Yao Huifen has always felt that the three of them could have the good life they have now thanks to Hu Qiongfang and Jiang Tian’s adoption.

Hu Qiongfang and her daughter were very kind to the three of them.

She doesn't even know how to repay him, so how can she have the audacity to be the store manager?

Jiang Tianke said that as a branch manager, in addition to the salary, there is also an extra bonus every month. If you do a good job, two or three hundred yuan a month is not too little.

Such a high salary! It's enough to hire a college student. How can she, a rural woman who didn't even go to junior high school, be worthy of it?

"Why not? Aunt Yao, I think you have a talent for business. And, let me tell you the truth, in my mind, the manager of this new store doesn't have to be very capable or have a high degree of education. The most important thing is that this manager must be someone that my mother and I trust the most."

"Think about it, it's such a big store after all. Aunt Yao, you know how good our lunch box business is. Even if the branch store is not doing as well as the main store for the time being, it still has a daily turnover of at least several hundred yuan."

"You said I should find a powerful and cunning person to tamper with my accounts. It's clearly a daily turnover of 1,000 yuan, but he made it 500 yuan for me. My mother and I can't watch the store every day. If we run into this kind of scoundrel, how much money will the store lose in a year?"

Yao Huifen's attention was indeed diverted, and she began to worry about Jiang Tian sincerely.

"So, we really need to find someone trustworthy to look after the new store."

Jiang Tian happily took Yao Huifen's arm and said coquettishly, "That's what I mean, Aunt Yao, your character, my mother and I have absolute trust in you. Besides, based on my relationship with Chunling, tell me, do you have the nerve to take my money?"

Hu Qiongfang slapped her daughter in the face, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "What nonsense are you talking about? Is your Aunt Yao that kind of person?"

If Yao Huifen was really the kind of person who loved money, during the Spring Festival last year, when the whole family was in the countryside and the roads were blocked by heavy snow, and no one checked the accounts, Yao Huifen only needed to record half of the daily turnover, then go buy noodles and meat herself, and sell dumplings through her family's storefront. She could have made at least a few hundred yuan during the Spring Festival.

But Yao Huifen didn't.

So, sometimes, being a good person is not something that only God can see.

Those who appreciate good people and are willing to help good people can also see it.

Yao Huifen finally agreed to be the manager of the new store.

Hu Qiongfang hired a sister-in-law who lived nearby to take over Yao Huifen's current job. She asked Yao Huifen to follow her and learn how to keep accounts, arrange the store's daily food purchases, count inventory, and learn how to manage employees and mediate conflicts between employees...

Yao Huifen was overwhelmed and had to borrow paper and pen from her daughter. Every night when she rested, she wrote down what she had learned during the day and reviewed it over and over again.

After finding a candidate store manager for the new store, Jiang Tian planned to go to the town to look for Secretary Sun.

Unexpectedly, before she even arrived, Mayor Han brought a group of people to visit their store.

It was also a coincidence that when Han Sishu came over, Han Jisong also happened to come to restock the shelves in the store.

After the provincial TV station reported the story of Hu Qiongfang and Sister Fang's restaurant, the business in the restaurant was indeed better than usual.

Many people came to eat and watch the fun. Some of them didn’t have time to queue up for food, and when they saw that there were many "local specialties" on the shelves, they bought some to take back.

Han Jisong had never expected that this "local specialty" business would be so profitable.

He no longer sells fish. After the New Year, Han Jisong spent money to build a big thatched shed in the village and hired several good fish killers to help him kill, pickle and dry fish every day.

Grandpa Han doesn't have time to go fishing now. He spends every day in the straw hut, cursing and helping his grandson supervise the work.

Poor old man, he has worked hard for most of his life. Now that he is old, he wanted to spend a few days leisurely boating and fishing, but he didn't expect that he would have to help his grandson come here to supervise!

However, seeing that his grandson was so tired at such a young age that he had dark circles under his eyes, if he didn't help out, would he just have to watch his grandson die of exhaustion?

In this way, Grandpa Han was unwillingly abducted onto the "pirate ship" by his grandson.

In order to keep his grandfather in the position of "supervisor" and stop him from going fishing in a boat, which is such a dangerous job, Han Jisong worked even harder to promote his vacuum-packed dried fish.

Try to make his grandfather spend the rest of his life as a "supervisor".

The supervisor is great. He just sits there every day, drinks tea, and fans himself with a palm-leaf fan. When he feels sleepy, he can lie on a chair and take a nap. It's just right for an old man like my grandfather.

Han Jisong was loading the goods, and Secretary Sun subconsciously raised his camera to take a picture, only to find out after taking the picture:

Huh? Why does this fishmonger look a bit like Mayor Han?

Both of them have the surname Han, could they be relatives?
