Chapter 684: Promoting the Villagers
Editor: Henyee Translations
Seeing that she was determined, Madam Dai and Nie Shuang had no choice but to take a step back.
Since the three of them were cooperating, it was naturally best to distribute them equally.
However, it was not easy to divide, so Madam Dai, who had offered the shop, took up 40%.
Gu Yundong and Nie Shuang each took 30%. Madam Dai did not agree. In the end, it was Gu Yundong who said that if anyone caused trouble in the shop in the future, only Madam Dai’s identity could suppress it. Therefore, taking 40% meant that she was the most responsible.
Madam Dai did not say anything, but she looked at Gu Yundong with admiration.
This girl was so young, but she was very mature. No wonder she could go from a penniless refugee to her current achievements in such a short period of time.
At this moment, she was especially confident that the shop that was about to open would definitely be popular.
Since the decision was made, they had to discuss the details.
“I’m not familiar with wood carpenters. I have to go back and ask our steward. However, I see that this house is well repaired. I wonder which master did the job. If it’s possible...”
Nie Shuang nodded at the side. “Yes, I also think that these tables and chairs are well done. Then Master’s carpentry skills are good. Let’s hire him.”
Gu Yundong nodded. “To tell you the truth, the carpentry work here was done by a master from my village. Our new house, the shop in the county city, and the shop in the prefectural city were all renovated by him. We’ve worked together so many times that we’re already very familiar with each other. He can immediately understand what I want. I thought that if you don’t have a suitable candidate, I’ll recommend him.”
“That’s good.” Madam Dai immediately agreed.
Nie Shuang also nodded at the side. She knew nothing about this. In any case, if she was asked to pay, she would pay. If she had to work, she would work. She just had to be obedient.
Gu Yundong said, “Then it’s settled. I’ll talk to Uncle Feng later.”
Madam Dai liked Gu Yundong even more. Not only was she smart, but she was also caring and would promote the people from her village. It was only reassuring to work with such a person.
However, Nie Shuang had already calculated her private savings in her heart. She was the young lady of a merchant family, so she had quite a lot of money every month. In addition to the red packets and New Year’s money that her uncles and aunts gave her every year, she was actually a little rich woman. If it was really not enough, she would borrow money from her eldest brother.
As she was thinking, a loud shout suddenly came from downstairs.
