Otherworldly Days

Chapter 287 One Year Plan

The rising sun was hitting the pier, and the boats coming and going were docked here, and the shirtless men were carrying the goods, sweating profusely.Fishermen who returned from fishing early in the morning set up stalls to sell fish here, and some servants in charge of the mansion came early to buy fresh fish and went back. The pier was bustling with people coming and going.

This year is spring, and when spring comes, everything is revived, and the whole world begins to come alive.

The big boat that left early arrived at Nanyang at dusk and sunset.

After arranging the family affairs, Cao Xiangnan came to Nanyang. He brought Sun Ji and a few of the Sun family's boys.

He didn't go to this side of trouble for the whole winter. After the long winter passed, the ice and snow on the frozen river melted, and the boats went back and forth between the north and the south. Only then did he board the boat to Nanyang and bring his people to Nanyang.

Even in winter, the river was still navigable, so he didn't have time to come to Nanyang, and the family was busy with a lot of things.Fortunately, now that the family has bought a few people to go back, they can quickly learn some of the work at home, and they can help the ground. When he came to Nanyang, he didn't worry so much about Wanfeng staying at home alone with a few children, afraid of him. I can't take care of it.

There are a lot of things after the year, and I have been busy until now before I can find time to come to Nanyang. When I come to Nanyang, I also have a lot of things to be busy The people here picked them up and took him directly to Yipinzhai, which showed that shopkeeper Fang was really in a hurry.

Shopkeeper Fang smiled when he saw Cao Xiangnan coming. He put his hand around Cao Xiangnan's arm, led him in, and said as he walked, "Your boy is here. If you don't come, I will run away myself." I went to Fenshui to find you."

He really has this plan, if he can't leave this way, knowing that this kid will come, he really has to go to Fenshui to grab him even if he can't leave, this kid is quite clever, He came over by himself before he went over to arrest people.

"Where is the need for you to go to Fenshui to find me, brother, I'm here?" Cao Xiangnan and shopkeeper Fang looked like good brothers, smiling.He had received a letter from shopkeeper Fang asking him to come to Nanyang a long time ago, but he couldn't get away, and he couldn't get to the end of the matter over there, so he hurried over here.

As soon as the two entered the wing room and sat down, they chatted for a long time, until the lanterns in the building were lit, and they ended the conversation.

I haven't been to Nanyang for so long, and there are many things here. After talking with shopkeeper Fang and confirming some things in the building, Cao Xiangnan had to rush to the night snack stall to find Manager Zhou. Talk to him about the current business situation at the supper stall.

The spring in March is still cold, and it is still cold today. What to eat, good food, and delicious food have become the most important thing in order to attract customers.

"...Understood? So these are issues we need to consider, and we still need to think about how we can solve these problems." It was not until very late that he returned from Manager Zhou's side. On the way, Cao Xiangnan explained the situation After analyzing it for Sun Ji, he asked.

Sun Ji nodded, he is a smart person, once Cao Xiangnan mentions some things, he can understand them here.

What he knows is also based on his accumulation of experience over the years. Cao Xiangnan did not expect that one day those will come in handy. He has to thank those difficult years for teaching him the ability to survive.

It is not possible to starve my wife, children, and myself to death after arriving here.Now what he wants to do is not only to let everyone in the family have a bite of food, but also to let them eat well, live a good life, and even want to live a better life.

This is also the difference between living alone and having a family. With responsibility in his heart, he has the motivation and direction to work hard.

I was busy at night until very late before I went back to the wing room and slept, and got up early the next morning.

"I just arrived yesterday, so I was going to ask someone to send you a letter. I didn't expect you to come." Shen Zhengyang looked for him early in the morning. At this time, he had already got up and was busy in the kitchen downstairs. Cao Xiangnan He smiled and said when he saw someone.

Seeing Shen Zhengyang coming in a hurry, he didn't know where he got the news that he had come to Nanyang, so he came to find him.

"Hmm!" Young Master Shen was a little dissatisfied. Even if he came to Yipinzhai, he didn't know that someone would send a letter to his Shen residence. If he hadn't found out that someone came here, he might have pointed out Cao Xiangnan. When will I think of him, and said sourly, "I know you are busy."

"What kind of noble person am I? Don't run on me. I will work hard. If I don't work, I will have nothing to eat. If I starve myself to death, it will be a big deal to starve my wife and children to death." Cao Xiangnan joked to himself. .

"The kitchen has made fresh refreshments. Let's go up and sit down and have a cup of tea. You can also taste the freshly baked dim sum. If it's delicious, send some to the old lady." He just came out of the kitchen, still dressed Apron, took off the apron, Cao Xiangnan pulled the sullen young master Shen up the stairs.

In fact, when he got busy, he tended to forget things. He didn't realize that Young Master Shen was waiting for him here, and he forgot to let someone go to Shen's residence to deliver the letter.

"Well, this one is good." As soon as Young Master Shen heard that he brought food for his grandma, he immediately became interested.

As a rich young master, he has no other advantages, the only advantage is filial piety, filial piety to grandma, and filial piety to grandma.Hearing that Cao Xiangnan was thinking about his grandma, Shen Zhengyang smiled and said, "My grandma told you to come to our Shen residence for tea when you come to Nanyang, but I have been waiting for you to come, but I didn't see you Come here, I have delivered my grandma's words now, when you see my grandma later, don't forget to tell him, I told you about it."

"Yes yes yes." Cao Xiangnan laughed and replied repeatedly.

"It's not that there are too many things to be busy recently, and I only got time to come here now. Thanks to the old lady, Xiangnan will definitely go to Shen's mansion to drink tea with the old lady." Cao Xiangnan led people upstairs, Upstairs is quieter.

Not many people come to the building for tea at this time, and there will be more people later in the day.In the early spring, the business of restaurants and restaurants is the worst. I don’t know if it’s a long winter. Everyone is used to staying at home and is reluctant to go out. At this time, people who go to restaurants and restaurants outside are far away. Not as much as before, so this is why shopkeeper Fang rushed to find him in Nanyang.

Before leaving from Nanyang last year, he had already arranged things here, but it still depends on the specific reason.When he came here, he also had some confidence in his heart. In fact, he still needed some ways to attract everyone's attention and attract customers back.

"There's no need to look back. Today is the day. My grandma is at the mansion. I'll bring some refreshments back for grandma. You can go there too." Young Master Shen said.

"That's fine. Let's finish our tea first. Later, I'll go with you to Shen's mansion to see the old lady." When he returned from Nanyang last time, the old lady prepared a big gift for him. Why the old lady gave him a gift, Cao Xiangnan also had a general understanding in his heart.

While talking, the two walked upstairs, opened the door and entered the wing room.

He is not here in Nanyang this winter, and Shopkeeper Fang has not shorted the supply of fresh vegetables and mushrooms in the Shen residence. He has always prepared a copy for Mrs. Shen, so this Mrs. Shen asked Shen Zhengyang to take him. In the past, Cao Xiangnan also knew why.

It is not a bad thing to have a relationship with this Shen residence.Thanks to Mrs. Shen who thinks highly of him and doesn't dislike him as a country boy, Cao Xiangnan is not easy to trust. Since the old lady has already called the roll call, he has to go there.

What he didn't expect was that the business he opened with Shen Zhengyang was good.There are a lot of gadgets out this winter, the weather outside is cold, and the children are locked in the house, some people in the house will buy some fresh and fun gadgets for the children at home, let them play at home It won't make trouble.

So when other people's business is not good, there are still people rushing to buy things here. Even in winter, craftsmen are also rushing to make all kinds of gadgets in the house, and the business in the store has always been very good.

The batch of children's clothes he sent were all sold out, and there was no place to look for down jackets at the end. The clothes had been worn, and the price was more expensive than ordinary cotton clothes. It felt soft and light, and it was so small. The small one can be worn on top of two cotton coats, and it is also comfortable for children to wear.

At the end of the day, all the clothes were sold out, and the ones I wanted to buy were not sold. If I wanted to buy any more, I had to pre-order for next year.

Because considering the lack of raw materials, even if someone wants to order more, they are afraid that they will not be able to make it.Cao Xiangnan had already told Shen Zhengyang here in advance that there would be a maximum of five orders in each mansion. If there were more, I was afraid that they would not be able to make them at that time, and that would be a big problem. Already quite a few.

Originally, he wanted to wait for the garment factory to start work again in May. It seems that this time he will go back to the garment factory to start work. First prepare the raw materials, and then he can start to make winter clothes. As soon as it's over, it starts to come out.

"I thought about these gadgets in my spare time. Take a look." Cao Xiangnan also figured out a few small toys when it was freezing outside in winter and had nothing to do at home. It was given to Shen Zhengyang.

Pointing to the drawing, he introduced to Shen Zhengyang what was drawn on the drawing.

"Wonderful!" Shen Zhengyang slapped his thigh and almost jumped up happily. He had seen too many strange things from Cao Xiangnan. "How did you grow your brain?" Looking at Cao Xiangnan, he asked.

Cao Xiangnan laughed out loud, not because he had a good brain, but because what was stored in his brain was knowledge accumulated over thousands of years.

After having tea, he and Shen Zhengyang went to the Shen Mansion and met Mrs. Shen. This lady really thinks highly of him. As for the reason for this, Cao Xiangnan also understands in his heart.

He also responded to Mrs. Shen's words.

After sitting for a while and drinking a cup of tea, he left from Shen's residence, and Shen Zhengyang also came out with him.
