She gave birth to three daughters in a row, and was kicked out by her mother-in-law who favored boys

Chapter 358: Big White in Town

Gu Qingqing smiled.

"That's right. Our shop has nice white walls, so two shops in town took a fancy to it. They came to inquire about our shop today while I was there. I thought it was a good idea, so I tried to negotiate with them based on our shop's standards. Unexpectedly, it worked out."

"They want to build big white walls too? And for two families?" Zhao Dong felt a little embarrassed at first, but later he felt that they had good vision. Currently, the east family is the only one with big white walls in the town, and the bright white color is pleasing to the eye.

"Yes, two. I went to see them both. One is the wine shop next door to us. It has two rooms. I quoted him one tael of silver. The other one makes fried sugar cakes. Although it only has one room, the wall is blackened by the smoke. I quoted him 650 coins. It is more troublesome to do business with this one, but fortunately the house is not big. The structure inside is not complicated."

Let Gu Qingqing speak. Zhao Bei, who came in at some point, swallowed his saliva with an expression that said, "Sister-in-law, you are crazy about money!"

Gu Qingqing was amused by Zhao Bei's expression and glared at him, "Hey, hey, hey, take away that look. You don't even understand that if you don't make money, you're a bastard! This is an opportunity."

"Sister-in-law, if you didn't need to build a stove, it would only take two days to paint the walls white. Now you are charging them one or two taels of silver for two rooms. Oh my darling..." Zhao Bei covered his chest and howled.

He looked distressed, as if he was asked to pay out money.

"Be serious!" Zhao Dong didn't even look at Zhao Bei. As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Bei next to him immediately stopped talking and laughed over there.

Gu Qingqing explained, "The two days you mentioned are the time you spend working in the town. It takes time to carry stones from Niutou Mountain and calcine them. There aren't many broken stones there, right? If you want to chisel the mountain, calculate whether the money is too much or not."

"Sister-in-law, labor is the least valuable!" Zhao Bei muttered.

What Zhao Bei said makes sense. In ancient times, the least valuable thing was labor.

"Isn't it too expensive?" Zhao Dong also felt that it was not cheap.

After Gu Qingqing asked herself, she didn't think it was expensive at all. "No, no, this is an exclusive technology and secret recipe. Brother Dong, you should understand its importance. I am taking the job for you. If you think it is suitable, someone can go to the town with me tomorrow, and I will take you to meet them. If you don't like it... I will refuse it when I go to the town tomorrow. I am a woman and I definitely can't do these things."

Gu Qingqing took the opportunity to pull herself out of this.

At the same time, even a fool can figure out this account. The limestone is available on Niutou Mountain, for free.

They all know how to burn lime, so it's just a matter of asking them to do the hard work.

Just like what Zhao Bei just said, labor is the least valuable.

This is equivalent to Gu Qingqing giving them money in disguise.

"Go, go, let's go. Sister-in-law, you make sense. If you have the money and don't want to make it, you're a bastard." Zhao Bei said quickly, fearing that if he spoke slowly, the job would grow wings and fly away.

"Yes, let's do it. We usually get paid by our employer, so if you accept the job, we will definitely do it." Zhao Dong said.

Hiss, Gu Qingqing heard a mysterious sound.

She smiled before she spoke, "Brother Dong, you don't understand what I mean. I am not involved in this job. I am just helping you take it. All the money earned belongs to you."

Zhao Dong looked at her and nodded slowly.

After having dinner here, Zhao Dong went back and called a few brothers together and told them what Gu Qingqing had said about the decoration.

The brothers were delighted after hearing this.

"Brother Dong, does that mean we brothers can have our own lives now?"

Zhao Dong nodded, and then said, "Although the Dong family said that she would not care about this and would not participate, we must remember the kindness of Wuyan and the Dong family."

"Brother Dong, what you said hurts the hearts of our brothers. Don't you know what kind of temperament we have? We will never do something ungrateful." Zhao Feng said.

"I'm just giving everyone a reminder." Zhao Dong also realized that what he said just now was wrong.

Then, he glanced at everyone and suddenly said, "I think the boss is giving us a wake-up call."

"Oh, what do you say?"

"The wealthy shops in the town have wooden boards on their walls, while the poor ones have stickers. Even if they are not crowded, they are painted white, but their whiteness is far different from that of the owner's shop. This time, only the nearby shops noticed and wanted to do this. What do you think if the big white wall can blow up a trend in the town or the county?"

As Zhao Dong finished speaking, the brothers looked at each other, and then a small flame burned in their eyes.

"Should we promote it more when we do it?" Zhao Nan said.

"If you ask me, we don't even need to look for them. Once we do a good job for one of them, the ones around will surely be envious. At that time, we won't need to say anything. They will definitely come to us if they like them. We won't have to worry about having no business." Zhao Zhongdao.

"Your idea is not good. We can't wait for business to come to us. Didn't Brother Dong just say that the boss has given us a reminder and we have to find the next one ourselves." Zhao Xi said.

“How do I find the key?”

"..."

Snapped!

Zhao Bei, who had been silent all this time, suddenly slapped his thigh and stood up with a laugh. "Brothers, if you really have no other ideas, let's go ask sister-in-law. She has the most ideas and will definitely have some ideas."

"We can't disturb the boss with everything." Zhao Dong said.

"If you ask me, what Zhao Zhong said just now makes sense. No matter which shop we work for, the shops around us should take a look. We should seize the opportunity to introduce it briefly. It will be faster than shouting on the streets ourselves." Zhao Feng said.

Zhao Dong nodded. "It's settled then. I'll go to town with the boss tomorrow. You guys can see if there's any work to do here. If there's nothing to do, you can chop wood and fetch water."

"Brother Dong, don't worry, we won't fall behind the Dong family."

Zhao Dong nodded to Zhao Nan, and then said, "The boss has introduced such a good job for us. We will not take the wages from the boss during the few days we go to work in the town."

"I don't think my sister-in-law will agree." Zhao Bei shook his head.

"The boss values ​​friendship and loyalty, and I will talk to Wuyan about this. It doesn't make sense for us to go to town to work and still get paid by the boss."

"What about our meal? Are we still going to the host's house?" Zhao Nan asked.

Zhao Dong thought for a moment and said, "Let's go. It would be too strange if we don't even go to eat. We can take this opportunity to buy food and send it to our boss. Besides, our boss's cooking skills are really good."

The relationship between these brothers is beyond words, otherwise they would not have traveled all the way from north to south without separating.

They all agreed with what Zhao Dong said.

When the meeting was finally over, Zhao Dong said to Zhao Bei, "Don't follow us to town. Stay in the village and help the boss. I will go to town with your brothers."

"Well, don't worry, Dong. I'm definitely better than the donkey in the backyard."

Zhao Bei was a bit of a nerd, and he was never lazy at work. If he was really lazy, he would only talk nonsense when he was with Zhao Dong.
