Su Binglan liked how her family looked now. They cared for each other and worked well together. She felt more relaxed. She wanted her family to have a good life and believed education was crucial.
Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua also knew the importance of attending school. However, they did not want to think about it in the past. Still, they had extra money from selling tofu, so sending the two kids to school would not be an issue.
Nonetheless, Su Binglan was the one who thought of this method of making money, so her parents knew they should not overstep their boundaries and tell her that they wanted Su Xuexuan to study abroad.
It would resemble using their daughter’s credit to do themselves a favor. Still, they would never do that to Su Binglan.
They were quite moved when their daughter brought up the topic of sending her nephews to school. After all, if they could afford it, they should because it would only benefit the Su family if the two children obtained knowledge and became high-ranking officials in the future.
Even if the two did not take the imperial exams, they would be more intelligent than most and have an easier time doing other things like starting a business. Moreover, it would be easier for Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai to deal with marriage matters.
Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua were very sensible elders. They knew it was for their grandchildren’s good to send them to school.
Su Fengmao said, “How about this, Binglan, you save the money you earn, while the money your mother and I earn will be for Xuexuan and Xuehai’s studies?”
Su Whenzhe hurriedly said, “Father, what are you saying? I feel better now, so I can earn money too. You and mother don’t have to work so hard.”
He felt ashamed that his parents were still concerned about him even though he was old enough to care for his family.
Su Binglan said smilingly, “We’re family, so we can’t divide it that way. It’s settled since no one objects to sending Xuexuan and Xuehai to school. When I return to town, I will ask which private school is best.”
…
Time pa.s.sed quickly, and a few days later, the shop was ready.
Su Binglan had busied herself with making desserts those past few days and even specially wrapped them.
She brought the desserts she had prepared to the shop a day before opening. She arranged the desserts and decorated the shop according to a modern-day pastry shop.
She placed the desserts onto specialized wooden plates and nearly placed the price tags in front of them. The prices varied from two, five, ten, and twenty coins per serving because their flavors differed. Still, they were equally delicious.
Su Binglan also made some extra pastries and took some copper coins. Then she told Lin Zheng to take the coins and pastries to give to the beggars on the streets to help spread the news of her shop opening.
In less than a day, news of Binglan’s Desserts and Su’s Tofu spread throughout the town and village.
When Lin Zheng returned, he excitedly reported to Su Binglan, “Boss, your method was very effective! Everyone already knows your shop will open tomorrow. Why didn’t I think of this?”
Su Binglan knew the beggars would unite, making it easier for them to spread the news. However, she only wanted to open a shop to make money and become wealthy before thinking of other issues.
She did not want to deter her initial plans, so she did not need to set up a network of information channels.
“Good, as long as it worked. Tomorrow, you, Li s.h.i.+, Zhou Shan, and the others will become interns. Of course, I will still pay you. Still, if you pa.s.s my a.s.sessments and officially start working here, I will give you guys a monthly salary.”
Su Binglan was very generous to her workers and would never mistreat them.
