Chapter 363 Earning Money in the Same Way

OMG!

What's the boss planning to do with so many ingredients and things?

The workers looked at each other, and began to speculate.

Manager Su instructed the shop assistants, "You guys move all these to the side and make room for the building."

The men who came were all tall and strong, each one strong and quick-witted. They quickly set up the porridge stall, arranged the stoves and pots, and washed and put away all the pots, pans and bowls.

A quick-thinking worker noticed there were dozens of bowls and plates. If all this food was just for the employer to cook, it would be far too much, and they couldn't possibly finish it all. So, what was the employer planning to do?

He asked excitedly, "Boss, are these for...cooking for all of us?"

The workers who had gathered around were immediately taken aback. "Prepared for us?"

With so much meat, it looks like half a pig. Wouldn't that mean everyone could eat meat?

Almost all the people who come here to work are from poor families. They can't afford to eat meat all year round. The employer actually brought half a pig. What does that mean?

Shopkeeper Su smiled and nodded, "Thank you all for your hard work during this harvest season. To ensure that everyone can eat their fill before working, Qingchuan and I have decided to provide lunch and dinner for everyone starting today, until the harvest of medicinal herbs is finished. However, everyone should be aware that we cannot slack off just because of the two meals. Let's try it out this season. If it works well, we will continue to provide meals next season!"

A wave of emotion washed over the group, and their eyes instantly welled up with tears. They no longer needed to carry dry, coarse rations and water to stave off hunger.

"Thank you both, it is our honor to work for you in this lifetime!"

"The employer is kind-hearted, thank you for considering our needs..."

"..."

"These are all minor matters. As long as everyone can eat their fill before working, all our hard work is worthwhile. These days, everyone has eaten and drunk their fill, so let's work hard!"

Although it's just a very ordinary sentence, it warms everyone's hearts.

Xiao Tang, who had made the suggestion, smiled sincerely, nuzzled her father's arm, and softly called out, "Dad, thank you!"

Qingchuan smiled and ruffled her hair.

The crowd dispersed, and the staff and cooks of Qianzhenlou became even more impressed with Manager Su and Qingchuan.

Having seen so many ruthless employers, they are truly lucky to have encountered such a generous one.

"Get to work."

At Manager Su's command, the cooks immediately took the vegetables and went to prepare them.

Everyone was beaming with joy, and their laughter echoed through the fields.

They started cooking with great enthusiasm, preparing the ingredients in a wok.

The workers in the fields could already smell the aroma from afar, and their mouths were watering uncontrollably.

In order to eat faster, everyone unconsciously increased the speed at which they worked.

Tirelessly bending over, standing up, and constantly running back and forth.

When the sun was high in the sky, the food was already prepared.

Bowls of meat and vegetables were placed on a makeshift table, and the aroma of meat and vegetables filled the air.

The owner specifically instructed that there was no need to be stingy, and since the cooks' hands were large, they naturally put in plenty of ingredients.

Especially the stewed meat, the pot of meat was very oily, with a layer of fat floating on top.

The workers were busy working, and they all swallowed hard.

"Lunch is served! Everyone stop what you're doing."

Wu Yu and Shui Sheng walked to the middle of the field and shouted a few words. The workers in the field immediately put down their work and ran over, a huge group of people.

Their eyes lit up as they stared at the dishes on the table, waiting for the host to say "dinner is served" so they could eat to their hearts' content.

After counting everyone and confirming that everyone had arrived, Wu Yu glanced around and said, "Let's eat!"

Upon receiving the message, everyone pounced on the group like hungry wolves, creating chaos.

Seeing that someone was about to be pushed and fall, Manager Su, who was in charge, quickly stood up, walked to the middle, and stretched out his hands, "Line up, one by one, and get your food."

The group of people who had been making a ruckus just moments before immediately quieted down, grinning with their faces turning red.

"Queue up, don't push, everyone gets a share."

Wu Yu and Shui Sheng led their men to organize everyone into a queue, and order was restored immediately.

An hour later, everyone sat on the ground, completely satisfied, holding their large bowls and burying their heads in the food, eating with utmost contentment.

The smiles on everyone's faces were more radiant than ever before.

After eating and drinking their fill, and patting their swollen bellies with satisfaction, everyone's hearts were united in one direction.

The idea in my mind that I wanted to work with Manager Su and Qingchuan for the rest of my life was more firm than ever before!

The employer's concern for them comforted everyone's hearts.

The older workers smiled so much that the wrinkles on their faces deepened.

In the following days, the workers ate meat every day and ate until their bellies were round.

After three days of busy farming, from morning till night, everyone not only didn't lose weight, but actually gained quite a bit.

With such good food and drink, the workers were grateful and took the initiative to speed up the harvesting of medicinal herbs. Every day, you could hear their cheers and encouragement in the fields.

The time required to cultivate thousands of acres of medicinal herbs was reduced to just ten days.

The workers piled the harvested medicinal herbs along the edge of the field, which looked like small hills from a distance.

Everyone looked at the large, plump medicinal herbs, their faces beaming with satisfaction.

These medicinal herbs are the result of their months of meticulous care, working from dawn till dusk.

The workers exclaimed, "This season's hard work was definitely worth it; it's been a huge success!"

Standing beside the pile of medicinal herbs, Lin Qingchuan gazed at the bountiful harvest before him, his heart filled with emotion. A few years ago, he would never have imagined that he would be able to open a restaurant and grow medicinal herbs, earning a steady stream of money.

This is all thanks to Xiaotang. If Xiaotang hadn't persuaded him to break free from his father and stepmother's control, he might still be at home working like a slave to support his whole family.

"I heard that the medicinal herbs grown by the villagers nearby were stolen a few days ago, and most of the herbs they had worked so hard to grow were stolen."

One of the workers whispered something, and everyone immediately started talking about it.

“It’s true, I’ve heard about it too. Some farmers in the next village were growing medicinal herbs, but just when they were about to harvest, thieves stole most of them.”

"My God, how angry must people be? They've worked so hard all season, only to have it all go to the thieves."

"you do not say……"

Because the owner and Manager Su jointly cultivated thousands of acres of medicinal fields, planting several kinds of medicinal herbs, the harvest was good and the price was high. Nearby farmers also knew that planting medicinal herbs was more valuable than planting rice. In recent years, many farmers have followed suit. Of course, there are also many thieves who are envious and have ulterior motives.

The previously lively atmosphere suddenly became somewhat heavy. Everyone looked at each other, their faces showing worry.

Because they not only work in the medicinal herb field with their employer, but they also grow their own medicinal herbs. Now that it's the busy farming season, everyone comes to the employer's medicinal herb field to harvest herbs first, and they haven't even started harvesting their own herbs yet.

The medicinal herbs in the field are not only the result of their months of hard work, but also the livelihood of their family.

Lin Qingchuan said, "These medicinal herbs are the result of our hard work in collecting them. To prevent them from being targeted by thieves, we must sell them as soon as possible. However, there are still so many medicinal herbs in the fields that have not been harvested. We need someone to guard these harvested herbs to put our minds at ease."

Everyone nodded in agreement. "That makes sense. So, who should be in charge of guarding it?"

"How about we pick a few people, divide them into two shifts, and take turns guarding them?" one of the workers suggested.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Yu called out to Shui Sheng and volunteered, "Shui Sheng, we two don't farm, so let's take a few restaurant staff and guard the place together."

Let our workers focus on harvesting medicinal herbs. After they finish our work, everyone still has to go back to their own fields to harvest.

Shui Sheng patted Wu Yu on the shoulder, "Good idea, let's do it your way. You take the lead and keep watch for the first half of the night, and I'll take a few people to keep watch for the second half of the night."

The two asked Lin Qingchuan, who immediately agreed.

After confirming, Wu Yu and Shui Sheng went to select workers, choosing only the strongest and most capable ones.

As night fell, they held torches, carefully surveying their surroundings, guarding their hard-won harvest.

……

With someone in charge of guarding the medicinal herbs, Lin Qingchuan and Manager Su could now focus on finding channels to sell them.

Lin Qingchuan and Manager Su glanced at the medicinal herb field, where workers were still busily harvesting herbs. They exchanged a look, a satisfied smile on their faces, and then turned and went into the makeshift shed.

Lin Qingchuan and Manager Su sat in the shed, carefully checking the accounts.

The candlelight flickered in the shed, casting a dim glow that illuminated the two figures.

"Manager Su, this harvest is quite good. This season's favorable weather has resulted in even larger and plumper herbs than last season's. We should take advantage of the freshness of the herbs and sell them quickly; we're sure to get a good price."

"Indeed, this harvest is plentiful, but we need to sell them quickly to get the money. With so many medicinal herbs, if we can't get them out in time, it could be..."

Shopkeeper Su looked worried. The scale of the medicinal herb planting area was getting bigger and bigger every year, and the pressure on everyone was also getting bigger and bigger. He was worried that the large quantity of medicinal herbs would not be able to be sold all at once. He flipped through the brand-new account book in his hand, his brows furrowed, and the two of them fell into deep thought.

After a long while, Manager Su's eyes suddenly lit up. "Mr. Xue's relatives are imperial merchants with businesses all over the country. They have many connections. If we also contact Mr. Xue of Baicaotang, we will definitely not have to worry about selling. We have always had a pleasant working relationship with him before, and the price he gave us is also quite reasonable. Let's sell to him first. If they can't buy it all at once, we can sell the remaining seeds in small quantities."

Lin Qingchuan slapped his forehead and said with delight, "It's him! After all, Mr. Xue is a good person and trustworthy. We feel at ease selling to him." The two hit it off immediately.

Without further ado, Qingchuan and Manager Su began preparing for transportation. They immediately rented more than twenty horse-drawn carriages from several nearby counties and hired twenty porters.

Over the next few days, the medicinal herb field was bustling with activity. The workers, wearing straw hats and braving the scorching sun, sorted and processed various medicinal herbs.

Experienced workers carefully inspected the quality of the medicinal herbs, and porters meticulously loaded them onto the carriages, daring not to be careless in the slightest.

After several days of hard work, Lin Qingchuan and Manager Su finally arranged for all the medicinal herbs to be transported to Baicaotang.

Upon seeing Mr. Xue, Lin Qingchuan smiled and clasped his hands in greeting, saying, "Mr. Xue, it's been a long time. How's business lately? We've had a bumper harvest of medicinal herbs this time, so I've come here specifically to discuss cooperation with you."

Upon hearing the purpose of their visit, Mr. Xue beamed with joy and warmly invited them to sit down.

"Haha, Brother Qingchuan, Manager Su, I was just about to discuss this matter with you."

I've heard you had a good harvest this time, and I'm overjoyed that you're continuing to seek cooperation with me!

“We’ve been working together for several years now, and I trust the quality of your medicinal herbs,” Xue Zhiyuan said happily, waving his hand.

After some discussion, both parties quickly finalized the details of the cooperation.

Mr. Xue promised to buy the medicinal herbs from Lin Qingchuan and Manager Su at a fair price, and also said that he could consume any quantity.

The two finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that they had finally gotten things done!
