Han Qiao was not in a hurry to let Madam Feng make a decision.

She told her that she knew how to make about ten kinds of pastries.

The shop could also sell dried fruits, candied fruits, and sweet snacks. There were about 30 of these. Including melon seeds and peanuts, there were about 40 to 50 items. As long as the shop became famous, the profits would not be small.

“Do we need to prepare a lot of things?”

“Not a lot,” Han Qiao said.

“I have three shops in my hands. The locations are neither good nor bad, but they lose money every year. Why don’t we give it a try?”

“Since Madam believes in me, 1 will open this shop and make money,” Han Qiao laughed.

“Then how much do you want?” Madam Feng asked.

These days, prescriptions were rare.

“A few percent will be enough, but under one condition. The person who makes these pastries must be a servant of the Heng manor. Every morning, the pastries will be delivered to the shop.”

Even if they didn’t cooperate in the future, as long as the formula and the person were still in her hands, she could open her own shop or partner up with other people.

Madam Feng naturally thought of this as well.

“My residence also has old maids and servant girls who know how to make pastries.” Madam Feng said.

“Of course. Everyone likes to eat rare and exquisite food.”

This was how the big people think.

It was still the same.

Those with power and influence were even more meticulous with their decision.

Ordinary people also wanted to buy something good to eat.

Madam Feng was very interested in food shops, but she had no interest in tofu shops.

Han Qiao had already decided to take control of it herself.

The business would not be bad after a day of trading.

Han Qiao quickly wrote down more than ten kinds of pastries.

“Red bean cake, green bean cake, pea yellow cake, rice cake, milk cake…”

All of these required the use of various beans.

The steps required were naturally different.

She wrote down the pastries she knew how to make and also wrote down many kinds.

Next was the issue of splitting the profits.

Madam Feng had wanted to give 30%, but she had never heard of many of the food names Han Qiao had written, let alone how to make them.

“If you come up with these recipes, 1’11 come out of the shop and also the pastries. How about 40 – 60? You take 40 and I take 60.”

Han Qiao was silent for a moment before agreeing, “Sure,”

Four to six ratio was not bad.

If they earned 100 taels a month, she would have 40 taels. That would be 500 taels a year.

It was also money that many ordinary people could not earn in their lifetime.

One should not be too greedy.

Madam Feng was also impatient and wanted to take Han Qiao to see her three shops.

Feng Xinru could only follow them.

Heng Yi stayed with Han Qiao. If she felt uncomfortable, he would tell her not to force herself.

The carriage traveled very slowly on the road. Fortunately, the three shops were not very far away.

Both shops had two storefronts. Both the brightness and the location were good. The business of the shops next door was very good, but the business of Madam Feng’s shop was very cold.

It was very baffling.

After getting off the carriage, Heng Yi supported Han Qiao and followed Lady Feng and Feng Xinru into the shop.

Han Qiao’s hair stood on end as soon as she entered, and she couldn’t even breathe properly. With a dark expression, she asked Heng Yi to help her out.

She felt more at ease with him by his side.

1Q11

“What’s wrong?” Heng Yi asked.

“There must be something wrong in that shop.”

Madam Feng and Feng Xinru also came over and asked with concern.

“Find a Taoist priest who knows Feng Shui to take a look,” Han Qiao said.

She didn’t want to step into the shop again.

Others might not know her background, but she did know her limits.

Madam Feng, Feng Xinru, and the others were more Buddhists. They felt that the Buddha was a kind and merciful person and that the Taoist priest was only used when someone was dead.

As for the other two shops, Han Qiao also couldn’t get through the door without feeling something was wrong.

In summary, there was a problem with the three shops.

And it was not from a natural source, but man-made.

Han Qiao didn’t need to worry about this. Madam Feng would send someone to investigate.

She followed Feng Xinru back.

“Are you tired?” Heng Yi asked.

“It’s not tiring. It’s good for the child to go out and wander around like this.”

Han Qiao had servants to serve her, so Feng Xinru didn’t have to worry about her.

After sleeping for a while, Han Qiao woke up and started to make a list.

Her handwriting was already pretty good, at least better than Heng Yi’s.

Heng Yi sat on the side, grinding ink for her.

Halfway through, Han Qiao stopped writing, “I was planning to open my own fast food restaurant. Now that 1 have a partner and have more money, I want to buy a few shops and open a tofu shop.”

Madam Feng felt that opening a tofu shop wouldn’t make much money, but it wasn’t the case.

If the tofu shop was done well, it would be as good as a pastry shop.

Han Qiao handed the purchase order to Shopkeeper Zhu the next day.

Shopkeeper Zhu led his men to purchase the goods and also to fix the price.

In the future, Han Qiao would send it directly to the fast food restaurant, which would save her a lot of trouble. She would also not give the buyer a chance to be greedy.

Feng Xinru found that other than running a shop, she had no use for anything else. The chefs and waiters were all under Han Qiao’s command.

Han Qiao was also very busy. She went in and out to arrange everything in an orderly manner.

Feng Xinru went back to her parent’s home and saw that her brother and sister-in-law were not looking too good. She could not help but ask, “What’s wrong? Did you two fight?”

The relationship between her brother and sister-in-law had always been good.

Madam Feng shook her head, “What’s there to argue about between your brother and me? That shop was tampered with.”

Not only that, the shop was still under investigation.

All the shops of the Feng family had been tampered with.

There were bad things on the beams of the shop.

“What is it? Who was so bold to do this? Big brother, you must investigate thoroughly.”

Master Feng agreed.

He then asked Feng Xinru, “How’s your fast food restaurant?”

“I don’t need to do anything. Everyone is only looking for Ah-Qiao for guidance. Big Brother, I…”

Master Feng knew what his sister was thinking.

“What do you want? Your goal is to make money. Look at how many fast-food restaurants have popped up in Chenzhou City. Don’t you think this will help put your restaurant on the market?”

“Just you wait. When this fast food restaurant opens, one business can be compared to several. Besides, even if you manage it, can you manage it well?”

Feng Xinru was silent.

She doesn’t think she could manage the shop well by herself.

“You don’t know how to run a restaurant either. It’s better to be a hands-off owner and wait for the money to be collected.”

“But…” Feng Xinru was a little worried.

“But you’re afraid that people will only know about Madam Han’s involvement and not you, right?” Master Feng smiled.

“…” Feng Xinru didn’t need to say anything.

That was what she meant.

“Silly little sister,” Her brother laughed fondly, “You are borrowing their name. You can’t have the bear paw and still want the fish. Madam Han is a reasonable person. You must throw away those little thoughts.”

“If you don’t trust her, you can find an accountant to check the accounts at the end of each month.”

“Maybe she’ll do a better job than you think.”

Feng Xinru was puzzled, “Brother really thinks highly of her.”

He was actually trying to persuade her to give in.

When Madam Feng heard this, her heart also rose.

She was afraid that her husband had other thoughts.

In comparison to her, Madam Han was beautiful and gentle. Although she was nearly thirty years old, people would believe that she was still in her twenties.

Master Feng glanced at his wife and sister, unhappy that they only had unreasonable romantic thoughts in their minds.

“You women have long hair but short knowledge. There are some things I didn’t want to tell you, but hearing your thoughts today, you two look down on the Han family..”
