Chapter 346: Chapter 346: Preparing to Open a Store

Xia Chuyi thought that maybe she knew why Xia Ming was once called Silly.

Being a kid who constantly communicated with animals and spoke for them, wouldn’t he seem like a fool in the eyes of ordinary people?

Clearly, this child was not inherently foolish.

He seemed to have a natural ability to communicate with animals.

So, could this be considered… picking up a treasure?

“Bark!” While she was still thinking about Xia Ming, Uncle Quan had already impatiently barked.

“Hungry!” Xia Ming looked at her and said.

“Bark!”

“Hungry!”

Xia Chuyi: “…Got it.”

Then she went to serve the Medicinal Food, which had been simmering since morning, to Uncle Quan.

The original Qian Qianqian, who had been eagerly thinking about tasting the Medicinal Food, watched, wide-eyed as she gave the whole bowl to the dog.

“Chuyi?” Qian Qianqian was very puzzled.

“Xiao Kong is my life savior,” Xia Chuyi calmly said.

…That sounded so reasonable.

Qian Qianqian gave Uncle Quan a resentful look and said, “Ah, who asked you to save Chuyi.”

The idol’s life savior… a dog, deserved such treatment.

“Chuyi, I’ll make more delicious food for Xiao Kong!” Qian Qianqian suddenly said excitedly.

Her mood adjusted quickly.

“Cough cough!” Xia Chuyi calmly said, “Xiao Kong is still young and can’t just eat anything. I will be solely responsible for its diet from now on.”

“Also, I’m about to start school soon, and we’ll definitely be short-staffed. So we need to hurry up and put a recruiting notice outside.”

“Mm, okay,” Qian Qianqian had no objections to her decision.

Subsequently, the two got busy.

Soon, the reserve marinade was ready, and the food ingredients Xia Chuyi had ordered arrived.

Having never done business in Capital City before, Xia Chuyi really couldn’t estimate how the braised pork rice business would do, and didn’t know the students’ tastes either, so she prepared only a small amount of ingredients for a trial operation.

Comrade Qian Qianqian, just thinking about making money, was very active. Her eyes sparkled, and she never felt tired no matter how hard she worked.

At dusk, Xia Chuyi rubbed her tired shoulders and said to Qian Qianqian, “Tomorrow is the official school registration. I have to go and see what the situation is like there.”

“We sell food, no need to start too early, so you can wait for me to come back before we open.”

“No need, no need, I can manage by myself!” Qian Qianqian, hearing her say this, hurriedly waved her hands, adding, “You just focus on your studies!”

Xia Chuyi knew what Qian Qianqian meant, she was afraid of her business being ridiculed.

She smiled faintly, “What about a university student? A university student also needs to eat.”

“The country is even advocating the development of the economy. I, you see, am responding to the national call.”

“Besides,” Xia Chuyi paused, “I’m a university student, and you’re still a high school student!”

“With a high school diploma in Ling County, finding connections, one could even teach.”

“You’re not afraid of being laughed at, why would I be?”

Qian Qianqian said embarrassedly, “I just like making money!”

Xia Chuyi blinked and said, “Honestly, I like money, too.”

Qian Qianqian’s eyes suddenly brightened and she exclaimed, “Ah, truly my idol, our views are exactly the same!”

Laughing and joking, a day passed by.

The next morning, Xia Chuyi took all the materials required for registration and went to Kyoto University.
