When they got home, Shen Ruyue and the others sat at the table and counted the money happily.

Chu Qingzhi returned to her room with the sugar flowers, placed them in a vase, and covered them with a layer of spiritual energy to keep off dust. There were so many that it would take half a year to eat them all.

Chu Qingzhi looked at the candy flowers and recalled Tang Jinghong walking towards her from the crowd with the candy flowers. He was handsome and dignified, like the male lead in a novel. He was very attractive.

With a smile, she turned around and walked downstairs. “Big Brother, Third Brother, help me carry the box to Jinghong.”

Chu Qingzhi had brought the boxes back from Guangxia Garden. There were a few large boxes, and they were locked. No one knew what was inside.

“Sure,” the brothers replied and followed Chu Qingzhi to Tang Jinghong’s house with the boxes.

The boxes were placed in the main hall.

Chu Qingzhi opened them, revealing men’s clothing, trousers, shoes, belts, jade ornaments, and crowns, all made from high-quality materials.

Tang Jinghong was puzzled, “This is…?”

Chu Qingzhi explained, “These were gifts from the merchants. They let me pick anything, so 1 chose these for you.”

Tang Jinghong was surprised, “Isn’t this too much?”

The clothes alone were about ten sets, not to mention other accessories, easily worth a thousand silver taels.

Chu Qingzhi didn’t want to take advantage of others, but she couldn’t refuse their insistent offers, “I didn’t want them, but they insisted, so 1 picked them out myself.”

Tang Jinghong smiled, “Do Xuhua and the others have some too?”

Chu Qingzhi nodded. “Yes, everyone has some.” There were so many merchants. She could choose anything and accumulate a lot.

Tang Jinghong gently patted Chu Qingzhi’s head, “Thank you, 1’11 accept it.”

Chu Qingzhi felt that she was getting used to her role. If Tang Jinghong had touched her head in the beginning, she would have definitely slapped him. But now, she felt that there was nothing wrong. Instead, she felt that it was not bad.

“Jinghong, you’ve worked hard these past days. Rest early, I’ll be going back now.”

Tang Jinghong softly replied, “I’ll see you off.”

Back home, Chu Qingzhi opened the other four boxes in order, revealing the clothes inside. Indeed, everyone had their share of clothes, all neatly packed.

She handed them to everyone one by one. “These are all from the merchants. I’ve chosen some for you.”

After distributing clothing and accessories, she opened the fifth box containing stationery items, “Xuyuan, Xuyao, take stationery from here when you need it. They were all sponsored by the merchants.”

Then she opened two more boxes, one with bathing products and the other with various exquisite pastries.

“The pastries have a short shelf life, so eat them when you’re hungry and finish them quickly.”

Chu Qingzhi pulled Shen Ruyue aside, whispering, “Open the last box.”

Shen Ruyue was confused, “Why should I open this box, Qingzhi?”

Chu Qingzhi winked mysteriously, “You’ll see.”

Curious and under everyone’s watchful eyes, Shen Ruyue opened the box, and her face turned red instantly.

Inside the box were baby items, including tiny clothes, shoes, hats, and toys.

Shen Ruyue, blushing, asked, “What’s this for?”

Chu Qingzhi explained, “They were also given by the merchants. I was going to refuse, but then thought, since we accepted other gifts, might as well take these too. You and my big brother are married, so you’ll need them sooner or later.”

Shen Ruyue, still blushing, thanked her, “Thank you, Qingzhi.”

Chu Qingzhi leaned closer to Shen Ruyue and whispered, “Take them and have a good look. They’re too adorable.”

Shen Ruyue, captivated by the items, agreed, “Yes.”

After distributing everything, Chu Qingzhi sat down to review the accounts.

Over three days, there were 535 orders of various sizes, from ten taels to a thousand taels each, totaling about 180,000 taels in value.

Li Qingyu’s stall alone earned 1,800 taels, netting a profit of 1,100 taels after costs.

Chu Qingzhi’s earnings from the festival totaled over 50,000 taels, including stall fees, display charges, and gratuities from merchants.

The festival was lucrative for all merchants, with some earning as much as several hundred thousand taels, leading to substantial gratuities.

Chu Qingzhi earned handsomely and agreed to attend a banquet hosted by the merchants the next day, understanding the importance of socializing in business. She planned to take Chu Xuhua along.

In the future, Chu Xuhua would be in charge of Chu’s Trade.

The main expenses were for labor, with total payments amounting to around 600-700 taels. The most significant portion went to the supervising staff, who facilitated numerous transactions.

Chu Qingzhi closed the account book and said to Shen Ruyue, “It’ll be hard on you in the future. If you don’t have enough manpower, hire some. Don’t tire yourself out.”

Shen Ruyue smiled and nodded. “1 know. Don’t worry about me. By the way, Qingzhi, there’s something 1 want to discuss with you.”

Chu Qingzhi tilted her head. “What is it?”

Shen Ruyue said, “Someone from another village came to me today and said that he wanted to work in our workshop. I said that I would consider it. I haven’t replied. What should I say?”

Chu Qingzhi thought for a moment and said, “If you think they are good, you can give them a chance. Just arrange for our own people to be in the core position.”

Shen Ruyue said, “I understand.”

“Ruyue, wait a moment,” Chu Qingzhi said, returning to her room to fetch a promotion list she had prepared. “I’ll assign you to manage personnel matters. This will make it easier for you to organize everyone’s work. For the vacant positions, take some time to select people. Once you’ve arranged everything, let me know, and I will train them.”

Shen Ruyue inwardly praised Chu Qingzhi for her strong execution ability. “Alright, I’ll arrange it as soon as possible,” she responded.

“I still have to add one more thing.” Chu Qingzhi said as she picked up a pen and added to the end of the list the need to recruit fifteen people for baking egg tarts.

Many people ordered egg tarts, and the supply would start tomorrow. In a while, Chu Qingzhi would have to bring her family to work overtime. Otherwise, she would breach the contract the next day.

Shen Ruyue said, “Shall I ask Brother An to help us build the egg tart workshop tomorrow?”

Egg Tart had already received many orders and met the conditions to build a workshop.

“Sure.”

Then, other than Grandpa Chu and Granny Chu, everyone went to the bakery to work overtime to make egg tarts. They needed to make a thousand..
