Yang Ruoqing prepared a table of extremely sumptuous meals to entertain Zhou Wang and Xiaohuan.

After the meal, the table was cleared and everyone sat together to drink tea and chat. Blacksmith Luo, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang mentioned Zhou Wang's plan to raise fish in partnership with others.

"Qing'er, Tangyaozi, you two are well-informed, especially Qing'er, who is a master in business, please give your cousin some advice!"

After Blacksmith Luo assigned this task to Luo Fengtang and Yang Ruoqing, he picked up the cigarette pole and sat aside, smoking a cigarette.

Zhou Wang straightened his figure, looking at Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang expectantly and a little uneasily.

Luo Fengtang scratched his head, grinned and said, "Cousin, let Qing'er give you some advice. I'm a layman in business."

"However, you will be short of manpower at that time. If I happen to be free, just say hello and I will go over and help."

Zhou Wang was somewhat flattered and said: "Tang Yaozi, you must not say that. You are a general. Your brain is for marching and forming formations. Your hands are for holding swords and commanding thousands of troops."

Luo Fengtang smiled and said nothing.

Here, Yang Ruoqing pondered for a while and then made a sound.

"Cousin Zhou Wang, let me ask you, have you found a market for raising fish?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Zhou Wang was stunned for a moment and said: "This is my plan. On the one hand, I usually salvage some and sell them at the tile market, or sell them from house to house in the village or surrounding villages."

"The second aspect is to go find a restaurant to talk. Just like the fish in my uncle's fish pond are exclusively for your Tianxiang Restaurant, I also want to go find a restaurant like that."

"The third aspect is to talk to the fish vendors in our town, nearby towns, and even the county town of Wa City."

"Qing'er, what do you think of these three aspects of my plan? I spent three days and three nights thinking about this, hehe..."

Zhou Wang scratched his head a little embarrassed,

After Yang Ruoqing listened carefully and thought about it carefully, she said: "These three aspects have been thought through very carefully. I can see that cousin Zhou Wang, you have really thought about it these three days and nights."

"Hey, Qing'er praised me..." Zhou Wang looked at the other people on the table and said a little embarrassed.

Xiaohuan gave Zhou Wang an angry look and said, "Don't interrupt. It's not too late to listen to Qing'er's words before raising your tail."

Zhou Wang nodded hurriedly and looked at Yang Ruoqing nervously, waiting for her next words.

Yang Ruoqing continued: "However, among your three aspects, the first aspect is that the audience is too small. It is good for this farmer to eat fish twice a month. If you just rely on walking around to sell fish, the fish will be sold in the market."

In the process of selling, it will die and deteriorate before it is sold, and in the end, the money sold will not be able to keep up with the original cost.

"

"Secondly, if you go to a restaurant to talk, it is equivalent to a piece of fat, but many fishmongers are watching this fat."

"If nothing else, let's take our Tianxiang House as an example. Before we had fish from our own pond to supply fish, all the fishmongers in the town came here in a swarm."

"In order to build a stable and long-term fish business in the restaurant, they compete very fiercely. They lower the price and even give me this as a black gift or provide it to the restaurant. That's not surprising."

"So cousin, if you want to compete with them, it will be difficult, unless you have good connections."

"With this second aspect, there is no need to talk about the third aspect."

"As for the fish supply for our restaurants in Tianxianglou, Wanghai County, Huguang County, and Qingshui Town, the fish supply from my uncle's fish pond is enough. Every year, the fish pond can produce more fish to sell.

The villagers pickle fish during the Chinese New Year, and although the two big restaurants in Qing'an County and Nanfang have a large demand for fish,"

"But the fish that was transported from the fish pond in your Zhoujia Village to those two places has long since stunk, so we at Tianxiang House cannot share your fish!"

After hearing what Yang Ruoqing said, Zhou Wang felt as if he had fallen into a basin of cold water.

He and Xiao Huan looked at each other, and Xiao Huan was also at a loss.

Zhou Wang turned his attention to Blacksmith Luo for help again.

Blacksmith Luo pulled out the tobacco stick from his mouth and said, "Qing'er's analysis makes sense. It's hard for fish to survive without water."

"If you can't get rid of it in time, it will fall into your hands, and you will lose money."

"Wang'er, if it doesn't work out, don't do it alone. Come over and help uncle take care of the fish pond. What do you think of me giving you 40%?" Blacksmith Luo asked.

Yang Ruoqing's eyelids twitched secretly.

Four percent?

Let me go, my uncle is really not very kind to his nephew.

The net income from the fish pond at home is nearly one hundred taels a year.

Forty percent, brother Zhou Wang can get forty taels a year!

In Tianxiang Tower, the acting shopkeeper and kitchen chef of each restaurant have the highest salary, earning two taels of silver a month.

For example, Chef Zhou, who raises a family of six by himself, can still have nearly one tael left over from 2 taels of silver a month.

That’s twelve taels a year, and counting the red envelopes Yang Ruoqing sends out during holidays, I can save nearly twenty taels a year.

Brother Zhou Wang works with his uncle to raise fish, and his net income per year is forty taels. I'll give it a try. This salary is tempting!

With these forty taels of silver, both Xiaohuan and Aunt Dae can enjoy happiness at home.

Just when Yang Ruoqing thought Zhou Wang would agree, Zhou Wang shook his head.

"Uncle, my nephew appreciates your kindness, but my nephew wants to eat with his own hands!"

Zhou Wang raised his clenched fists and gritted his teeth.

"If this way of raising fish doesn't work, I will look for other ways. If other ways don't work, I will come back in the spring to earn money to support my mother, wife and children!"

"Pa bang bang..."

Yang Ruoqing stroked her palms.

"Cousin, you said it well, you are ambitious!" Yang Ruoqing praised.

"Where there's a will, there's a way. I've thought of a way to get rich. It's harder than raising fish. It depends on whether you can endure the hardship!" she said.

"As long as I can make money, as long as I make money in the right way, no matter how hard it is, I can do it!" Zhou Wang said.

Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "Don't worry, cousin, I never do business in any crooked way."

If it had gone the wrong way, it would have become a business empire by now.

The principle she adheres to in doing business is that it's almost enough. If the business is too big, it will easily attract jealousy and bring disaster.

Besides, what the family needs most now is money, and the cave in the back mountain is full of gold and silver treasures.

It can be said that this is overwhelming wealth.

The more this happens, the more low-key you must be!

"Qing'er, please tell me quickly, what is your good idea?" Zhou Wang couldn't help but press again.
