Chapter 198: The Plan to Open a Shop

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“You bought so many bowls. Do you have enough money on hand?” Liu SHi said worriedly.

They were earning money from the cold cakes, but her daughter kept buying things and didn’t save the little money she earned at all.

She didn’t use her money at all. The capital was paid by her daughter, and this was only a part of it.

She also bought wooden buckets, pails, pots, bowls, and so on. The total was not a small amount.

Besides, they had meat in every meal, so the food expenses were not low. This was also paid by her daughter.

“Don’t worry, mother, I know what to do.” Lin Xiaoyue said with a smile.

The expenditure was not small, but they earned money every day. The money in her hands was just enough for the turnover.

However…

Lin Xiaoyue suddenly thought of something.

Actually, I don’t have enough.” Then, she looked at Liu Shi awkwardly.

“How much more? I have some!” Liu Shi quickly said.

“It’s not that I’m short of money to buy rice, but I don’t have enough for the rent,” Lin Xiaoyue said.

She then told Liu Shi about her plan to rent a shop in front of the Qingyun Academy.

“The rent is too high!” When she heard that the monthly rent was 4 taels of silver, Liu Shi was speechless.

“Actually, it’s not that expensive. It’s not easy to rent a shop in that area.” Lin Xiaoyue explained, “and even if there are, the shops nearby are too big. It’s not suitable to open a small eatery.”

“We only sell cold cakes now, so we can’t make much in a day. But I’m going to sell other snacks later.” Lin Xiaoyue looked at Liu Shi.

“The cold cakes can only be sold for two more months. After that, when it’s winter, we’ll have to find another business, right?”

“Other snacks? What kind of snacks?” Liu Shi looked at her daughter with anticipation in her eyes.

She was also worried that the cold cakes could only be sold for two months. In the future, the family would have to support two scholars. When they stopped selling cold cakes, she was afraid that their days would not be so good.

“Spicy skewers!” Lin Xiaoyue’s eyes lit up.

Seeing Liu Shi’s confused face, Lin Xiaoyue explained simply, “it’s similar to the hotpot we had before. We need to season it with chili. It’ll definitely work if you sell it in winter!” Her eyes were filled with confidence.

“If it wasn’t for the fact that we’re busy making cold cakes and we don’t have many chilies in our hands, we could start selling them when the shop opens.” Chillies were her ultimate weapon!

When the chili grew, she could definitely make a fortune.

Liu Shi also knew about chilis.

She liked to add some of her daughter’s chili oil when she cooked.

When she heard that she wanted to use chilies as seasoning, her eyes lit up.

“It would be nice to eat spicy food in winter.” She agreed.

“Alright, then go ahead. Just tell me how much money you need!” Liu Shi said happily.

The monthly rent was 4 taels. It was likely that they had to pay many months in advance.

The expenses would be high.

If they didn’t have enough, she would have to take out the 20 taels of silver she had prepared for the two children to go to the academy.

Thinking of this, Liu Shi looked a little troubled.

There was only a month left before the next enrolment.

If she didn’t have enough money, it would be troublesome.

Lin Xiaoyue saw the worry on her mother’s face.

She smiled and comforted her, “don’t worry mom. I will only borrow 10 taels from you at most. I’ll immediately return the money to you after I get more cash.”

Mr. Qin said that he had five months left on his lease. She discussed it with him and perhaps she didn’t need to pay him five months’ rent at once..
