Chapter 591: Chapter 591: Being Clever with Words

Once the fast food shop at the train station opened, Cheng Su took Zhang Jisheng to report for work at Dazhi’s renovation team. And since they rented a house, Zhang Jisheng no longer stayed in the provided dormitory.

After sorting that out, Cheng Su took Qi Fenglian under her wing to manage the new fast food shop. She trained her for several days, and only after seeing her get the hang of it did she let go completely.

The selling price she set for the fast food was not high, on par with the surrounding shops, but she insisted on quality: the meat and vegetables were fresh, placed on the food cart, looking very appealing at first glance.

Thus, business was not bad, turning a profit of several tens or even over a hundred yuan a day, especially since it was just after the new year when many people were leaving the city to find work.

After stepping back, Cheng Su felt relieved. Indeed, being a boss meant knowing how to delegate. If one tried to do everything on their own, they would definitely be exhausted.

In just these few days, she felt very tired and was reluctant to move once she got home.

Qi Taiguo saw her rubbing her own back and couldn’t help but walk over, push her hands away, and start kneading her back himself, asking, "Tired, huh? Your complexion looks haggard!"

His pressure was even, and Cheng Su lay on the couch, sighing contentedly as he massaged her, pointing to her lower back area: "Put some more strength here, it’s very sore." Upon his increased pressure, she sighed and said, "These days, I’ve really been a bit exhausted, busy with the new shop. And I can’t totally disengage from the company and restaurant either."

"I’ve told you to take it easy," Qi Taiguo frowned and said, "Money is endless, but if you wear yourself out, no amount of money can buy your health back."

"Mhm. Now I can finally move freely; there are people in every place. If the business expands, I’ll just need to hire a few more capable hands," Cheng Su said with her eyes closed.

"How is your sister doing over there? Is she getting used to it?" Qi Taiguo asked again.

"At the beginning, it was a bit chaotic, but now she’s gradually getting the hang of it. It’s all about eyes-on experience; it doesn’t test people. The key is to be meticulous and clear-headed, and I think my sister can handle it!" Cheng Su replied.

Initially, she had also been somewhat apprehensive since Qi Fenglian wasn’t very educated and had spent many years just doing manual work at home.

Now, like working outside, handling cash, and checking accounts, Cheng Su was truly worried she wouldn’t cope with the confusion and mess.

Fortunately, though Qi Fenglian was inexperienced, she was sharp and observant. She might’ve been a bit chaotic at the start, but after a few days of learning and practice, she gradually became competent, and her accounting was error-free.

Therefore, Cheng Su was able to let go completely.

"However, she’s still a novice right now. To become a seasoned pro, she’ll have to go through a rough and tumble period, and that’s all up to her!" Cheng Su added.

Qi Taiguo was very pleased; after all, it was his own elder sister, and seeing her become independent, how could he not be joyful?

"You shouldn’t judge my sister by her simple appearance; she’s actually very sharp-witted. But like you said, to do well takes time," Qi Taiguo said, "You’re clever, try to give her pointers when you have the time. If she makes a mistake, just point it out. My sister told me that knowing where she errs is the only way to correct it and perform well."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Su turned around with a half-smile and said, "Won’t you say that I’m not giving face?"

"How could I? This is all for the good; if you keep silent and let her continue making mistakes, that would be the real harm," Qi Taiguo patted her bottom and said, "I know your intentions are always good."

Cheng Su rolled her eyes and scolded, "Flatterer." She then brushed his hand away, saying, "I’m going to take a shower."

"Alright, go ahead, but don’t linger too long; it’s cold," Qi Taiguo instructed.

The telephone rang, and he picked it up.
