Chapter 123: Division Of Labor 1
“If you don’t agree, then neither will I.”
Madam Qian looked up at Chen Hu. She was crying, but she was very determined.
Chen Hu’s heart ached. He reached out to wipe away Madam Qian’s tears and said, “Dear, let’s both give it a try.”
Madam Qian nodded. She wiped away her tears and said, “I’ll go cook.”
Fortunately, Chen Daniu, Chen Erniu, and Chen Shi weren’t here. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be good if they saw them.!!
Husband and wife cooked dinner together and didn’t feel bitter or tired.
Chen Hu could not help but smile. In his heart, he felt warm every time because of Madam Qian. His heart ached for her, but so did hers.
Outside the house, Chen Daniu and Chen Erniu were hugging Chen Shi. The two sisters looked at them and couldn’t help but smile.
They had heard their parents’ conversation.
They didn’t go in. They silently brought Chen Shi to the courtyard dam to do other things.
After dinner, when Chen Hu and Madam Qian were about to look for Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao, they had already arrived.
Chen Hu and Madam Qian happened to open the door, when they saw Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao preparing to knock, they were stunned for a moment before smiling.
“Big Brother, Sister-in-law, it looks like we had the same thoughts. We were just about to look for you.”
Chen Hu smiled and scratched his head. As he enthusiastically invited Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao in, he turned to say to Chen Daniu and Chen Erniu, “Daniu, Erniu, carry Shi and go play with Xiaolu and the others.”
Chen Daniu and Chen Erniu knew that their parents had something to discuss, so they nodded obediently and went out with Chen Shi.
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao also entered Chen Hu’s house. After everyone sat down, Su Sanlang said, “Hu, it seems that you have something to say too. Tell me first. I’ll tell you when you’re done.”
Chen Hu and Madam Qian nodded. After the two of them looked at each other, Chen Hu said, “Eldest Brother, Sister-in-law, after discussing with my wife, we’ve decided that we won’t go to town in the future. We’ll just focus on making the sauerkraut and spicy cabbages at home. It’s been hard on you guys to do business. As for the money, I think our family is taking too much. We’ll have to split it again if we don’t go. I think 20% is enough for our family.”
After Chen Hu finished speaking, Madam Qian also said, “Big Brother, Sister-in-law, we promise that we will be able to do a good job at the rear. Hu and I are not suitable for doing business.”
After Madam Qian finished speaking, Chen Hu nodded.
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao looked at each other. Madam Zhao was the first to speak. “Hu, sister-in-law, I can tell that you don’t want to speak. This isn’t a problem. Anyway, this rear work isn’t idle. Sister-in-law’s culinary skills are good. The two of you, husband and wife, are in charge of the sauerkraut and spicy cabbages. We can rest assured. If you’re unwilling to go, let Daniu and Erniu try.”
Madam Zhao was really thinking about the Chen family.
Chen Daniu and Chen Erniu were going to marry in the future. The two girls were very shy, just like her third daughter. But today, since Su Xiaoling could muster up the courage, Madam Zhao felt that Chen Daniu and Chen Erniu could slowly change.
It was never a bad thing to have more experience.
When they get married in the future, if they had some ability themselves, they would not have to be bullied by their in-laws.
Su Sanlang also said, “My thoughts are the same as my wife’s. Let the two of them go to train their courage. We agree to this, but I won’t agree to split the profits like that.”
Madam Zhao nodded.
Chen Hu and Madam Qian didn’t understand, but they did.
Chen Hu and Madam Qian were also a little anxious and were about to say something.
Su Sanlang said, “Hear me out.”
Chen Hu and Madam Qian had no choice but to swallow their words and listen to Su Sanlang quietly.
Su Sanlang said slowly, “Don’t worry. Let me tell you, I have a new plan for this brand. We can’t just make this sauerkraut. We have to take the initiative to promote it in the long run. We have to take root steadily. This way, even if someone learns to do this business soon, we won’t be affected.”
“I didn’t think of that before. It was only when Xiaolu reminded me not long ago that I realized that I was too short-sighted. We can’t take one step at a time. We have to take ten steps at a time.”
Su Sanlang had pondered Su Xiaolu’s words many times. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense.
His was too short-sighted. He should think ahead.
Su Sanlang told them his plan. “Here’s what I’m thinking. We’ll start tomorrow. We’ll leave the sale of sauerkraut to my wife. She’ll take Third Sister, Daniu and Erniu to do the selling. I’ll go to the restaurants in town to talk about this business. First, I’ll scout the way. Sister-in-law is good at cooking. When the time comes, I’ll have to invite her to make a few good dishes with sauerkraut and spicy cabbages. She will write down the recipe and use it as publicity. When the time comes, I’ll use this to talk business with others.”
“If it goes well, and the partnership is negotiated, we won’t have to be on tenterhooks anymore. Then, whether we stay here or go somewhere else, we won’t have to be afraid.”
Su Sanlang felt his blood boil as he spoke.
He hoped to use his efforts to keep his family safe. If this plan worked, his dream would come true.
Chen Hu and Madam Qian listened. They understood, but not completely. They knew that the results would be very good if they succeeded. But how could they succeed? They did not know.
Chen Hu looked at Su Sanlang firmly and said, “Brother, Sister-in-law, just tell us what you need us to do. We will definitely do it well and not disappoint you.”
Madam Qian nodded and said, “Big Brother, Sister-in-law, I know a lot about the cooking methods of sauerkraut and spicy cabbages. I’ll tell you now.”
Madam Qian liked to make pickled vegetables very much, and she had many attempts herself. After many improvements, she finally determined the most delicious taste in the end.
And cooking was her specialty.
She definitely did not hide anything and told him all the best things.
Chen Hu and Madam Qian were sincere. Madam Zhao and Su Sanlang were also smiling.
Su Sanlang smiled and said, “There’s no hurry. We’ll talk about this later. Now that you know the plan, stop talking about redistributing the money. Let’s do as we agreed previously. And if we do it well in the future, it won’t change.”
“Leave the business negotiations in front of others to us. I’ll leave it to you and your wife to work in the rear. How about that?”
Su Sanlang said after calming his excitement. He didn’t actually know how to do it, but he had to take this step. If Chen Hu was willing to go to the front with him, that was fine. Since Chen Hu chose to stabilize the rear, he would respect his choice.
Shi You Wei was a business between the two families, and as long as the two families were on the same page, there would be no problem.
Chen Hu and Madam Qian looked at each other and nodded together. Chen Hu said, “Alright, we’ll listen to Big Brother and Sister-in-law.”
He didn’t have to say how touched he was. He remembered it all.
