Taking tilings from the system and transforming them into tangible seeds in reality, no matter how one looks at it, it’s incredibly magical, like a magic trick. Zhuang Qingning herself is endlessly amused by it.

“Sister, why are you up so early?”

Zhuang Qingning had just moved the last sack of seeds to the base of the wall when she heard Zhuang Qingsui’s voice from behind.

Zhuang Qingning turned around and saw a sleep-dazed Zhuang Qingsui, rubbing his sore eyes and yawning. “Are these soybean seeds?”

“Yes, just arrived.” Zhuang Qingning blinked and said, “I didn’t expect them to arrive this early. I originally told them to deliver after breakfast. But they said they had to rush to the town. If they were late, it would be dangerous to travel at night. So they delivered early.”

“Actually, I was thinking about treating them to breakfast, but I couldn’t.”

Telling a lie with a straight face was becoming more and more natural.

At that moment, even Zhuang Qingning believed it herself.

As for Zhuang Qingsui, needless to say, he didn’t have any doubts at all.

Yes, it seems whether it’s a trivial or significant issue, practice makes perfect. “Are you hungry? What would you like to eat for breakfast?” Zhuang Qingning changed the topic.

“I want to have pimple soup with tomatoes. It’s sour and delicious.” Zhuang Qingsui said. Awakened now, he washed his face and went to pick the tomatoes. Zhuang Qingning then scooped up some flour and brought over an egg, ready to make the pimple soup.

After finishing a bowl of tomato and egg pimple soup, Zhuang Qingning seemed to regain her energy. She tidied up the dishes and asked Zhuang Qingsui, “I have a matter to discuss with the village chief about the soybeans today. Would you like to stay at home or go to town with Sister Qiuying?” ‘I’ll go to town. Sister Qiuying and I agreed yesterday to go into town today to listen to a storyteller.” Zhuang Qingsui said, “They say that the storyteller is very good, and they can imitate cats and dogs. It’s very interesting.” Imitating the calls of cats and dogs is a skill that performance artists possess. It’s likely due to a lack of audience that the performer also tells stories to attract people. Children often don’t understand the storytelling, but they enjoy the lively performance skills and naturally think it’s great.

“Okay, go if you want to.” Zhuang Qingning laughed, “But you must listen to Sister Qiuying and don’t run around. There will be a lot of people at the market intown today.”

“Also, last time you said you liked the hairpins being sold, why don’t you buy one this time with Sister Qiuying? You could also buy one for her as a gift.” “I heard my aunt say yesterday that Sister Qiuying’s birthday is coming up, but I didn’t hear exactly when. You could also consider it a birthday gift for her.” “Okay, thankyou, Sister.” Zhuang Qingsui nodded his head excitedly.

“Why are you thanking me?” Zhuang Qingning tapped Zhuang Qingsui’s forehead, “Why are you being so formal with your sister?”

“I got it, I won’t be formal with my sister.” Zhuang Qingsui stuck out his tongue. He fetched a bucket of water from the water tank, and poured a ladle for Zhuang Qingning.

After getting her things ready, Zhuang Qingning went to the tofu workshop with Bai San, and asked Bai San to drop Zhuang Qingsui at the tofu shop. Zhuang Qingning then went to Zhuang Jingye’s house to discuss the matter of the soybean seeds.

Just as she left the house, she heard someone calling her, “Miss Zhuang.” “Brother Dong?” Zhuang Qingning was somewhat surprised to see Dong Dazhu stopping his bullock cart ahead, “Why haven’t you left at this hour, Brother Dong?”

“I was waiting here for you, Miss Zhuang.”

“I wanted to discuss something with you…”

Dong Dazhu’s face was full of smiles, but he looked rather nervous.

“If you have something to say, Brother Dong, just say it,” Zhuang Qingning laughed.

“We have known each other for a while now, and I feel comfortable speaking directly with you, Miss Zhuang.” Dong Dazhu awkwardly smiled, “Your tofu is delicious, and the business is good too. The dried tofu, tofu sheets, soybean sprouts, and mung bean sprouts are all much tastier than others’. These tofu skins are even better, they taste better than the ones sold in the county town…” “These products are supplied daily to the four restaurants and the business is stable. But since these four restaurants don’t supply the outside anymore, and only keep the products for their own use, the business of Miss Zhuang does seem narrowed. So, I was thinking…”

“If Miss Zhuang agrees, I could set up a tofu shop just like yours in the county town. This way, it wouldn’t affect the supply of those restaurants, while earning some extra money. It would be a good thing for your business.”

“Also, for me, it would provide me with an additional source of income, which is also a good thing. The question is what does Miss Zhuang think about it and would you be willing to agree to this?”

As for this matter…”

Zhuang Qingning blinked.

She did have plans to expand her tofu business. The scale of the business needed to be increased, the production of tofu skins and the output of soybean sprouts and mung bean sprouts needed to be increased too. As such, the matter of the distribution channels needed to be addressed.

While the tofu shop in town had always been doing well, its business was limited to the town. Even if there was room for growth, there wasn’t much potential.

Zhuang Yonghe’s shop was also doing very well, but like the shop in town, its potential was almost saturated. If she wanted to earn more money, she would have to exert greater effort.

At present, if she wanted to further increase the tofu business, under the conditions of existing distribution channels and resources, she could only start from expanding the distribution channels.

If she could set up another shop in the county town, the supply volume and the money earned would be at least two to three times the current amount.

But having a desire and putting it into action are two different things. Firstly, if the shop had to be managed directly by her, she simply did not have the energy to take care of it. Secondly, if she were to find a partner, she couldn’t find a suitable person at the moment. Therefore, Zhuang Qingning had not yet put this matter on her agenda.

And now Dong Dazhu was suddenly proposing this thing…

After thinking about it, Zhuang Qingning asked, “Brother Dong, are you the one who wants to open the shop?”

“Not exactly.” Dong Dazhu scratched his ear. “It’s my cousin. He knows our restaurant’s tofu tastes good, and he knows I’m the one who delivers the tofu to the county town. He thinks that since I’m familiar with Miss Zhuang, I could broker the deal. He even said that if I could arrange the deal with Miss Zhuang he would share ten percent of the shop’s profit with me.”

“My family is struggling financially, and if I could work in partnership with my cousin to run this shop, things would undoubtedly improve. And considering that Miss Zhuang’s tofu products are so good, they are bound to sell well. That’s why I decided to discuss it with you, Miss Zhuang.”
