The Hunter’s Lucky Little Lady-Chapter 83



83 Business

“That’s right! Luo Cheng, don’t go out on a rainy day! Let me tell you, you won’t be able to feel it when you’re young, but when you’re old, you’ll know how detrimental it is to your health!” Li Shun said with some emotion.

“In the past, I didn’t take it seriously. I felt that my body was strong and there wouldn’t be any problems. At that time, I went out to farm on rainy days. In the end, in the past few years, whenever it was cold or rainy, my entire body hurt!” Li Shun used his personal experience to persuade Luo Cheng to cherish his body.

Luo Cheng could feel Li Shun’s concern for him and finally nodded. “Alright, I won’t go today! When the weather gets better in a few days, I’ll go up the mountain again!”

Seeing that Luo Cheng had given up on hunting, Li Xiaoran heaved a sigh of relief.

For some reason, she had a bad feeling when Luo Cheng said he was going out hunting.

Now that Luo Cheng wasn’t going, the bad feeling disappeared. Only then did she feel relieved.

“Brother-in-law, are we really going to build a shop?” Li Xiaoqing suddenly asked.

“That’s right! I’ve bought the land and found a person to build the shop. I’ll be back in two days. It might take nearly a month to build the shop!” Luo Cheng nodded and told him his plan.

“We can sell noodles in the shop in a month?” When Li Xiaoran heard this, she asked in surprise, “Why is it so fast?”

Luo Cheng thought of something and reminded her, “I found someone who specializes in building shops. Naturally, the speed will be faster! You can consider what other foods to sell besides noodles! I think it would be a pity if we only sell noodles!”

Li Xiaoran also began to think about it seriously.

Previously, they had no choice but to set up a stall to sell noodles because they had just started their business and didn’t have much capital. They could only choose the cheapest noodles to sell.

Now that they had a shop, they naturally couldn’t just sell knife-cut noodles. At the very least, they had to add some other foods!

Knife-cut noodles were definitely necessary, but they didn’t know what else to make.

“Why don’t we continue selling noodles?! We can cook other kinds of noodles!” Li Xiaoqing suggested.

Li Xiaoran shook her head and said, “If we only sell noodles, it’ll be a little too simple! If we really want to earn money, apart from selling noodles, we can also sell pancakes, rice balls, steamed buns, and so on!”

“We have to sell so many things?! Can we handle it?” Zhao Xiu thought of a question when she heard her daughter’s words.

Li Xiaoran thought about it and felt that running this business was too tiring.

There were only a few people in their family. If they really tired their family out, the gains wouldn’t make up for the losses!

“If you guys want to earn money, you have to think of something else! To be honest, I think you might as well open a restaurant. Look, restaurants earn more money than noodle stalls, and you’re not afraid of others snatching your business. Now that there are two noodle stalls, there might be more people coming to set up noodle stalls in the future!” Luo Cheng thought for a moment and suggested.

After hearing Luo Cheng’s words, Li Xiaoran was immediately enlightened.

She remembered that she had once learned a pithy about business when she was in school.

If no one has it, I do. If others have it, I’ll do it better. If others do it better, I’ll change industries!

With just a few words, it summarized the essence of business.

They could do a certain business when no one did.

If others had also started this business, they had to be the best in this business.

If others did this business very well as well, they would have to consider changing industries or doing something that others hadn’t done!

More and more people were setting up stalls on the official road, and there were more and more food, but very few people actually opened restaurants.

After their shop was built, they could open a restaurant and fill a vacancy.

There were also many people on the official road who were unwilling to eat at roadside stalls and wanted to eat some dishes.

Therefore, opening a small restaurant would allow them to cater to this portion of customers who had higher standards and more money.

The more she thought about it, the more Li Xiaoran felt that it was best to leave like this.

“I think you’re right, husband. We should open a small restaurant! Mom and Xiao Qing are good at cooking too. I’ll teach you guys how to cook a few more dishes. When the time comes, the few of us can open a restaurant! If we really lack manpower, we can consider letting Yuan Cheng and Mao Dao work here. They’ll definitely be willing!”

When Li Xiaoqing heard this, she immediately became happy.

“Sister, are you willing to teach us how to cook?”

“Of course I’m willing! If you learn more, you can even start your own business and earn money in the future!” Li Xiaoran said, “If girls have the ability to earn money on their own, their future life will be smoother!”

When Li Shun heard his daughter and son-in-law’s words, he thought of something and looked sad.

In the past, when he was in the Li family, he was the pillar of the family. His labor supported the entire family.

But ever since he left, he seemed to have become less important at home.

Li Shun felt a little disappointed, but he didn’t know what he could do.

Perhaps Li Shun’s disappointment was so strong that Li Xiaoran immediately sensed her father’s abnormality.

Seeing Li Shun lower his head while looking listless, Li Xiaoran felt that he couldn’t continue like this.

Luo Cheng had been paying attention to Li Xiaoran. At this moment, Li Xiaoran looked at her father and frowned, so he also looked over.

Putting himself in his father-in-law’s shoes, Luo Cheng understood his father-in-law’s worries.

Faced with such a situation, Luo Cheng couldn’t think of any good solution.

“Xiao Qing, I’m a little thirsty. Let’s go over and boil some water! Mom picked some wild chrysanthemums and dried them. Let’s make a pot of chrysanthemum tea to drink!” Li Xiaoran suddenly stood up and said to her sister.

Li Xiaoqing nodded, put down the needle and thread in her hand, and went out with Li Xiaoran.

When they arrived at the kitchen, Li Xiaoran saw that no one was following them, so she pulled her sister to boil water and spoke.

“Xiao Qing, have you noticed that Father seems to be getting more and more unhappy recently!”

When Li Xiaoqing heard her sister’s words, she nodded. “Sister, you realized it too!”

“That’s right! Father can’t continue like this. We have to find him something to do!” Li Xiaoran said.

“But what can Father do? Other than farming, he can only weave bamboo!” Li Xiaoqing said awkwardly.
