TFWYH – Chapter 86 Hiring Sales

“Wouldn’t that be the same as helping me do the work? No matter how much is sold, I just sit and collect the money. But a hundred coins is too much — I can give them at ninety-five coins, and if they sell for a hundred, they’ll earn five coins a pack. Sister-in-law, you’re so smart!”

Ling Yue muttered to herself for a bit, showered Tang Wan with compliments, and gave her a big hug.

Tang Wan: …

As long as you’re happy!

With this thought in mind, Ling Yue didn’t feel idle anymore.

Not long after, Madam Jiang came back with those two people.

Tang Tiansheng also delivered one hundred catties of pork offal.

Ling Yue immediately told Li Dashan about this matter.

Li Dashan felt like a pie had fallen from the sky and hit him: “Little Sister Ling, are you serious? You’ll sell it to me for ninety-five coins, and for every pack I sell I get five coins?”

Ling Yue nodded. “Are you in or not?”

“Of course I’m in!” Li Dashan was thrilled.

How could he not be?

Earlier that day, Tang Wan just stood there, didn’t even push for sales, just let people have a taste and then waited to collect money.

Even like that, more than ten packs were sold!

If one pack meant five coins for him, then ten packs would be fifty coins!

His father was injured, and his mother wouldn’t let him go into the mountains anymore. He’d been worrying about what to do!

What’s this called?

Dozing off and someone brings you a pillow!

Not only was he fired up, Ling Sheng was too: “Yue’er, look at me. I think I can help sell too. Not just me — my two brothers can also come help!”

“Alright!” Ling Yue accepted without hesitation, but added, “But let’s be clear upfront: the maximum price is one hundred coins. If any of you dare to mess around, don’t blame me for turning hostile!”

Maybe it was because she’d been around Tang Wan too long, but Ling Yue had been a little “Tang-ified.” With that little stern face of hers — she actually looked kind of adorably fierce.

Tang Tianyang watched from the side, very envious.

He also wanted to join in, but with so many chores at home, his father probably wouldn’t allow it.

Madam Jiang had no objections to her daughter’s decision!

Though still young, Ling Yue had always had her own ideas.

As her mother, she had to stand tall too, and not hold her daughter back.

Once Ling Yue had decided, she immediately asked Madam Jiang to add firewood and start preparing the new batch of pork offal.

Li Dashan and Ling Sheng also helped wash the offal.

After two hours, everything for the next day’s sale was ready.

Ling Yue immediately pulled Tang Wan to the livestock market!

As for Madam Jiang, Ling Yue had another task for her.

Madam Jiang thought her daughter disliked her and felt a little dejected: “Yue’er, am I really that useless?”

Today, Ling Yue had been so capable and resourceful — nothing like her, slow and awkward, reacting late to things.

But really, it wasn’t slowness. She had just never done business or dealt with customers before, so she was a bit reserved.

When Ling Yue heard this, she burst out laughing: “Mother, what are you saying? How could you be useless? It’s just that I want to grow the beef jerky business bigger, and I need your help with something. No — actually, no one else but you can do this, not even me!”

“Ah? What is it?”

“This!” Ling Yue picked up a sheet of paper and used a charcoal stick to write five characters: “Tang’s Beef Jerky.”

The handwriting wasn’t very neat, but to Tang Wan, it still looked better than her own.

Ling Yue handed the paper to Madam Jiang, scratched the back of her head, and for once looked a little shy: “Our eldest brother’s handwriting is the best. I want you to buy some wrapping paper and then ask him to write these words on every bag. Uh… I’m afraid of big brother, so this has to be you!”

So that was it. This wasn’t just some small-time tinkering anymore.

This little girl wanted to build her own brand.
