"These three shops really need to be fully established. They need a long and patient management." Xiaoxiao looked at Young Master Ning in front of him, "What we need to do now is to let the elders of the Dan Tai family see the hope of these shops, and make them believe that this is a business worth developing."
Isn’t marriage the same? The love between the two is only the initial stage. No matter how long the elders have, they can only speculate on their prospects based on the current conditions of both parties. - Marriage is like a shop. If you want to truly achieve stability, it requires a long and patient management.
"I understand that these three shops are of great significance to me. I will definitely cherish and trim them like my biological children." Young Master Ning's eyes were still calm, and he did not show the excitement and resonance he should have when he made a vow. I thought about when he was in the Centre-Snow Cottage, when he mentioned going to the battlefield, he was like this - this was even more reassuring.
"With that being said, we still need to speed up our pace. We strive to let the elders see the prospects within half a year," Xiaoxiao decided to put pressure on the other party. "Now Miss Tan Tai has decided on others. After Zhang finished taking care of her sister's affairs, it's probably my turn."
Young Master Ning nodded slightly, and did not ask who Dan Tai Shaoyao betrothed - how much family the other party has, how many shops can be maintained, it seems that these have nothing to do with him.
Xiaoxiao admires the other party's determination and indifference very much.
Mr. Ning was talking about these three shops of his own: "I will let people free up the antique shop as soon as possible. At that time, you can decorate according to the specifications of the photo shop. The rent can be paid after the business has input."
"One code is one code. I will go to the shop in the past two days. Let's sign the contract as soon as possible. At that time, I will pay the rent for one year in accordance with the rules. If all aspects are suitable, I might sign for many years." In Xiaoxiao's opinion, Mr. Ning is still in a difficult time and will not be able to take advantage of the other party's losses.
Young Master Ning nodded and agreed to Xiaoxiao, "I will ask them to debug the food recipe tomorrow. Then I will invite Yingyuan to try it out. If it is done, I will enter Guanglu Temple as soon as possible."
"It's a pity that the approval time of Guanglu Temple is very long, and it is not allowed to make profits before it is approved." Xiaoxiao thought of the Tang family's delicacies. Many of them have been around for half a year and have not been approved yet.
Young Master Ning smiled: "If you find a friend to clear it up, there will be a solution."
Xiaoxiao shrugged her shoulders. It is not easy to find someone to clear the Guanglu Temple. If you can solve the approval problem within three months, you will burn the incense.
"The rest is Reader's Digest. Is Brother Ning planning to use this name or to give another one?"
Mr. Ning thought about it: "The word reader has only appeared in recent days. There is always some gap between the public. It is not as friendly as the "reader" commonly mentioned in traditional scripts. What do Yingyuan thinks?"
Yingyuan didn’t think “study the officials” was friendly, but the people of the Yuanlong Dynasty would probably be more acceptable to this term: “Okay, that’s called…study the officials’ Digest?”
"How about the audience?"
Xiaoxiao read it several times, and the name was a little unfamiliar at first. When it was called familiar, everyone might get used to it: "Okay, let's decide this first."
"Our first episode of "Reading Officials Collection" may have to mobilize our own strength to find friends around us to serve as readers who provide the presentation." Young Master Ning likes this feeling of positive thinking, as if he is full of endless motivation. "And, the first episode must attract attention and make people feel the uniqueness of this magazine."
Xiaoxiao nodded, "I will try my best to mobilize the people around me, especially those with literary talent, such as some editors and authors of my magazine, and also mobilize some relatives and friends to cheer."
There was a hint of resoluteness in Mr. Ning's eyes: "I will also try my best to seek opinions from my relatives and friends. It is better for them to recommend it as they wish."
Xiaoxiao even thought about mobilizing his mother Gu Shanniang, even Mr. Shanchang, and his grandfather... "In fact, it is not difficult to find a recommender, but it takes effort to obtain the consent of the original author. After all, our readers' Digest, no, the Reader Jicui is still in its infancy, so it is not easy to get recognition. Brother Ning probably needs to train a team of people who specialize in this business."
"Well, for these shops, it seems that we have to recruit soldiers." Young Master Ning opened the folding fan and started slapping again. Two gray light ink chicks looked more lifelike as the folding fan swayed.
"If Brother Ning needs manpower, I can send some people here first." Xiaoxiao decided to help people to the end.
"Yingyuan has helped too much. Let Ning find a way to prepare for these preparations by himself." Young Master Ning bowed to Xiaoxiao.
Xiaoxiao added a new tea to Mr. Ning: "The matter has been almost settled today, and there is only one thing... I shouldn't ask about this matter, but there is no one to help me at this moment, so I just recommended myself."
"It's okay to ask Yingyuan." Young Master Ning said with a look of calmness. When this person's expression was calm, his eyes seemed to be smiling.
"Now, the elders of the Dan Tai family have shown their attitude, and we have come up with a solution for this. I don't know what the elders of the Ning family said about this?" This question was held in Xiaoxiao's mind for a long time, and finally asked it.
"My father has passed away, and my mother is devoted to the Buddha and choose a spouse. It only depends on my wishes. In addition, there is another brother in the family, who is now the head of the family. The elder brother... Once he is happy, he will probably agree to anything." Mr. Ning said very slowly, as if he had to think carefully about every word he said for a long time.
"Then, what does Brother Ling mean now?"
"My brother once chose a daughter from the family's family. I made it clear that he refused to obey him... He... Recently, there are some troubles at home and don't care about me." Young Master Ning's expression was unprecedentedly serious, "I always have a way to marry Furong with a matchmaker."
Xiaoxiao felt that the members of the Ning Gongzi family were very strange. The mother who was really responsible for chanting scriptures all day long, but the brother came to take charge of the brother's marriage. According to his tone, this brother was still a little bit of ambition at home. If he had a brother, he would have a sister-in-law... Furong would not be lonely after marrying... She had a lot of fun fighting with her brother...
Xiaoxiao cleared his throat: "Then... If Furong gets married, will she live under the same roof as your brother?"
"No, no! Please rest assured that this is not going to live together!" Young Master Ning scratched his temples, "When the time comes, Furong will be the host of the house. These brothers will not interfere. They just have the right to make decisions in marriage - our family has always been like this."
"Then... let's find a way to make him happy. Who made him the brother..." Xiaoxiao said reluctantly.
Young Master Ning almost sprayed a sip of tea, wiped the corners of his mouth, and held back his smile.
"You just said that my brother's family has some troubles recently? What's the matter? Can we help solve it? If he is happy, maybe he will agree to your marriage, so Brother Ning doesn't have to disobey his brother and go his own way."
Young Master Ning looked at him and smiled, as if he had experienced a struggle of thought, which made people feel that there was something shocking secret hidden in his next words - "The elder brother's eldest son and second son have all become talents and established careers. The elder brother doesn't want his younger son to study hard like his brothers, but instead hopes that he can be a little naughty and live like a boy."
"It's not easy to study hard, but it's not easy to be naughty?"
"It's not simple. The child is lonely and taciturn by nature. This may be a natural temperament, but it makes his brother feel very distressed about it."
Xiaoxiao didn’t know how today’s topic could be biased towards the psychological problems of children: “How old is this child?”
"I'm less than five years old, but I look young and look over three years old."
Xiaoxiao thoughtfully. He had no research on children. He just knew that the children in later generations would have their own activity venues. He would go to kindergarten from the age of three to integrate into the world of his peers, and would also visit places like amusement parks on holidays - they seemed to be more likely to feel happy in such places.
"Brother Ning, have you ever thought about what he sees when a child enters a lively market?" Xiaoxiao raised a question.
"It's delicious? It's fun?" Young Master Ning answered this question seriously. "I remember when I went to the market, I liked to see the noodle stall owners pulling noodles the most. The owners of the snack stalls quickly put the pages into balls of the same size, and then flattened them... Anyway, I can stand aside and watch for a long time."
Yes, I feel more and more that you and Furong have a common language.
"Brother Ning's perspective is very interesting, but it does not represent the commonality of children," Xiaoxiao rubbed his palms and tried to open up the next topic: "In fact, a six-year-old child walked into the bustling crowd and saw only the legs and shoes of various pedestrians..."
The view suddenly became deafening, which made Young Master Ning frown.
"It is impossible for adults to go shopping with their children all the time, right?" Xiaoxiao pursed his lips, "After all, we have grown up for many years, and it is impossible to return to the feeling we used to be. However, I think we will not forget the experience of stealing adult shoes when we were young. A small pair of feet stepped into the boat-like shoes, and stepped forward all the way, with the novel and staggering feeling."
Young Master Ning looked at him intently and smiled: "Yingyuan, I finally understand why Furong is a good friend to you."
Xiaoxiao spread her hands: "Actually, there is a child living in each of us. Once we can't take good care of it, he will sneak out. Sometimes, it's hard for two adults to communicate, but the two children in their hearts can fall in love with each other."
Xiaoxiao accidentally said so much to her best friend’s boyfriend: “Let’s go back to the topic and find a way to make your little nephew happy, right?”
