What a pleasant surprise. She hadn’t even started to plan, and so many people had already shown interest.
Third Master Zhou wanted 20 stores, Old Master Zhou wanted 8, Zhou Shi wanted 4, and Manager Liang wanted three. In total, there were 35 of them.
These people would give her 7,000 taels of silver in total!
Hehe, it was too easy to come by.
“Miss.” Zhao Shanshan saw that Lin Xiaoyue stood still for a long time and called out to her.
Only then did Lin Xiaoyue come back to her senses.
“Let’s go back.” She said.
“Yes.” Only then did the two return to the Liu residence.
When they entered the courtyard, Lin Xiaoyue suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Just as Zhao Shanshan was feeling puzzled, she saw Lin Xiaoyue turn around and look at her.
“Go get the brush and ink. Also, call Uncle Fu over to discuss the matter of the franchising.” Lin Xiaoyue said.
Zhao Shanshan was confused. She didn’t know what Lin Xiaoyue was talking about.
“Yes.” However, she knew that the young miss would explain later, so she didn’t ask further. She nodded and left.
Not long after, Zhao Shanshan called Zhao Fu over. He even brought brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.
Lin Xiaoyue then began to tell the two of them about what she told everyone during lunch.
“Uncle Fu, you were working in Nan’an County, so you should know about the situation there. Also, have you been to the towns around Nan’an County before?” Lin Xiaoyue asked Zhao Fu.
Zhao Fu cupped his hands at Lin Xiaoyue.
“Miss, I am familiar with Nan’an County, but 1 don’t know much about the surrounding towns. But…” Zhao Fu said as he looked up at Lin Xiaoyue carefully.
“But what?” Lin Xiaoyue asked.
“Zhao Kang and Zhao Qiang often go out with our previous master, so they should know more about the surrounding towns of Nan’an County than I do.”
What he said was the truth.
At the same time, he also wanted to give his two sons an opportunity to go to talk to the Miss.
After listening to Miss’ plan, he knew that she was going to play a big game of chess.
She did not have enough manpower. Although Shanshan could help her, she was young and had limited knowledge. What she could do was also limited.
This was a great opportunity for him and his two sons.
Lin Xiaoyue glanced at Zhao Fu and saw that he was still hunched over. She could guess what he was thinking.
She was also planning to make use of Zhao Kang and Zhao Qiang. After all, she really didn’t have anyone.
“Zhao Kang and Zhao Qiang are indeed not bad.” Lin Xiaoyue nodded.
Then, she looked at Zhao Fu.
“Alright, then let them assist Shanshan and prepare for the chain stores.” Lin Xiaoyue said.
Zhao Fu was delighted.
“Thank you, Miss!” He quickly thanked Lin Xiaoyue.
Zhao Shanshan was also delighted.
She was worried that she wouldn’t be able to get things done properly.
Now that she had her two brothers to help her, she felt much more at ease.
“There’s no hurry for now. After three days, when the contracts are signed, you can set off.” Lin Xiaoyue said to Zhao Shanshan.
“Yes.” Zhao Shanshan quickly replied. She looked a little nervous.
“It’s still early. I asked you to go now to inspect the market and find the locations for the shops and workshops.”
“I will tell you about the site selection criteria later.” Lin Xiaoyue said to Zhao Shanshan.
“Yes.” Zhao Shanshan replied.
“Hmm.” Lin Xiaoyue replied.
Then, she looked at Zhao Fu.
“Also, send someone to tell Uncle Jiang to come over tomorrow. Just say that I have a business deal to discuss with him.”
She had asked Jiang Dahe to help her renovate the two eateries in Qingshi Town.
Jiang Dahe was very familiar with the design of the eatery.
She wanted to hire his construction team to do all the renovation.
Yes, with the full support of Third Master Zhou and the others, she was prepared to open stores in the entire Nan’an County and the surrounding towns.
They would only consider towns that were big enough.
As long as she could find suitable locations, she would consider opening an eatery there.
7,000 taels of silver was enough to do many things.
“Yes.” Zhao Fu replied.
“Then there’s manpower.” At this point, Lin Xiaoyue sighed..
