Chapter 238 Dividends
Jiang Xiaohe became interested: "What's the good news? Brother Meng, tell me about it."
Meng Hetang leaned against the counter and said, "You know our mushroom business. We have been selling for more than a month. I have also received my money back, so I want to share the profits with you."
"So fast?"
Meng Hetang patted his chest and said, "How can I not be quick when I am your big brother? I see you are busy right now, when you are done, come to the restaurant to find me."
Jiang Xiaohe nodded.
Meng Hetang looked at her crowded place, shook his head and sighed: "I wonder when my restaurant will have so many guests."
Having said that, the man left.
Jiang Xiaohe shook her head helplessly.
When there were not many customers in the store, Jiang Xiaohe had a simple lunch in the store and then went to the restaurant to find Meng Hetang.
When Shopkeeper Yu saw Jiang Xiaohe, he smiled and said, "The boss has been waiting for Boss Jiang upstairs for a long time."
"Manager Yu, are you going to tease me now?" Jiang Xiaohe walked upstairs, lifting her skirt.
Shopkeeper Yu followed behind him and smiled: "Things are different now."
Jiang Xiaohe didn't say anything.
Pushing the door open and entering the private room, I saw not only Meng Hetang but also Chang Wei....
As soon as Meng Hetang saw her, he immediately stood up with a smile: "You are finally here."
Jiang Xiaohe sat down by herself. Meng Hetang poured her some tea and then took out the account book: "Look, this is the income from mushrooms this month."
Jiang Xiaohe flipped through the account book. It contained very detailed records, including how many mushrooms there were, where they were sent, and how much they were sold for.
Meng Hetang smiled and said, "I didn't expect that this mushroom would sell so well in autumn. After winter, I will raise the price a bit and we can make more money."
Jiang Xiaohe looked at it carefully without saying anything. After flipping through it for about a quarter of an hour, she also calculated in her mind. She didn't expect that after being made big by Meng Hetang, she could make so much money. She simply calculated that the income in the past month was almost a thousand taels.
Meng Hetang saw that she had finished reading it, and asked with a smile: "How is it, sister? Are you satisfied with the profit?"
Jiang Xiaohe closed the account book and put it on the table: "Of course I am satisfied. I didn't expect that Brother Meng has such a wide range of connections. In just one month, he can actually sell so much!"
Meng Hetang smiled: "Of course!"
After saying that, he took out a box and pushed it in front of Jiang Xiaohe: "This is the dividend that the sister deserves."
Jiang Xiaohe opened it and saw several silver ingots. She was very happy. With this money plus the rest of the money in the house and the earnings from the shop, she should be able to buy a bigger shop in the county, right?
Closing the box, he said, "It's really reassuring to do business with Brother Meng."
When Meng Hetang heard this, he immediately took advantage of the situation and said, "Since you think it's worthwhile to do business with me, can we discuss the hot pot business at your house?"
Jiang Xiaohe knew he was going to talk about this again.
Some said speechlessly: "It's almost there."
"You've said this several times. Are you trying to deceive my brother?"
"How could that be? Brother Meng, do you not believe me?"
Meng Hetang sighed: "It's not that I don't trust you, I'm just jealous of your busy business, but there's not a single customer here!"
Jiang Xiaohe didn't know what to say after hearing this.
Changing the subject, Jiang Xiaohe said, "Actually, I have something else I want to ask Brother Meng."
"Oh? Sister, just tell me what you want to say. I will tell you everything I know!"
Jiang Xiaohe couldn't help but smile: "It's not a big deal, I just want to buy a horse and make a carriage, I wonder if Brother Meng has the resources."
When Meng Hetang heard this, he immediately said, "You should ask Brother Chang about this! Brother Chang travels around all year round, so he is the most familiar with buying horses."
Chang Wei coughed twice and said, "I will send you one in two days."
Jiang Xiaohe waved her hands quickly: "Okay, forget about giving it to me. If you really have the means, please buy me one."
After saying that, he opened the box, took out a silver ingot and placed it in front of Chang Wei.
Chang Wei smiled helplessly: "Okay, I'll buy you one." He also emphasized the word "buy".
Seeing that the work was done, Jiang Xiaohe didn't sit for long. She stood up and said goodbye and left.
The two of them watched her from upstairs as she left with the box in her arms. Meng Hetang shook his head and sighed, "You said you have good taste, but you just don't have that kind of luck."
After saying that, he picked up the tea and took a sip, only to find that the tea had gone cold, so he put it down again.
Chang Wei glanced at him and said, "Why? Are you unlucky? You went to her house to buy wine before, and you made a lot of money this year, right?"
When talking about this, Meng Hetang felt happy. This year, the cost was a little higher, but he earned more than last year.
"No matter how much money I make, it's still my ability, right?"
"Yes, yes, it's your ability, but I have to tell you that I have to go out again in a few days. When the time comes, I will let my housekeeper contact you about the transportation of the mushrooms."
"Going out again? Are your previous injuries healed?"
Chang Wei stretched his muscles in front of him.
Meng Hetang shook his head and said, "You have so many injuries, each one is more serious than the last. If it were me, you should just listen to me and quit as soon as possible and live your life well."
Chang Wei patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I know what I'm doing. I'll leave first." As he said that, he walked out the door.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Come to my house for dinner tonight." Meng Hetang stretched his neck and shouted.
Chang Wei's voice came from downstairs: "No, I have something else to do tonight."
Meng Hetang pursed his lips: Everyone is very busy, but he is the only one who is idle.
Jiang Xiaohe returned to the shop. Each of the shop assistants received two new sets of clothes and everyone was very happy.
Wang Daya found Jiang Xiaohe: "Xiaohe, tomorrow I will..."
Jiang Xiaohe patted her hands and said, "Big sister, I know that tomorrow is the day Hongwa and Da Niu are getting engaged. You can have a day off tomorrow."
Wang Daya thanked her with a smile.
"Xiao He, I really don't know how to thank you." Her eyes were a little red as she said this.
Jiang Xiaohe patted her shoulder and said angrily, "We are a family, so we don't like sentimentality."
Wang Daya quickly wiped her eyes and said, "Okay, I won't keep you any longer. Just go about your business." After she said that, she went to pick vegetables nearby.
Now, in her heart, she is especially grateful to Jiang Xiaohe, who not only gives her a good income, but also allows her to live in the shop without having to go back to her parents' home. As long as she does not go back to her parents' home, she can stay away from those people in the village who point fingers at her and talk about her.
What she thought was that after she saved more money, she would find a place, buy a piece of land, build two houses for herself, and buy two acres of land. Then she would be able to survive on her own without relying on her parents.
Li Cuihong was holding the new clothes, and she didn't expect that she also had her own clothes. She was very grateful to Jiang Xiaohe.
Jiang Xiaohe looked at her and said, "Aunt Li, it's best to use hot water to wash dishes in winter. We don't lack firewood in our shop."
Li Cuihong nodded quickly: "Xiao He, don't worry, Shopkeeper Sun has taken all these into consideration."
Jiang Xiaohe smiled slightly, went to the backyard, wrapped herself in a coat, put on the gloves and scarf prepared for her by Wang Qiuxia, drove the ox cart, and set off for Longshui Town.
