Lu Dasong simply couldnt comprehend it. Even if they wanted to start a small business, shouldnt they start with something that costs less, like setting up a stall or being a peddler selling some trinkets?

To think they straight away rented a shop in the county. The initial investment was too big. If they lost money, then all the money would be gone.

Lu Dasong wanted to persuade them, Second brother, its not that easy to open a shop and do business. You have to consider it carefully.

However, Lu Erbai smiled, I know. Dont worry, big brother. Erya has good skills.

He asked, What skill?

Stylist.

Lu Dasongs eyes widened, What?

He had never heard of it.

Shu Yu really didnt know how to explain, so she could only say to him, Uncle, Ive already rented the shop and paid the rent. Its impossible to terminate the rent now. As for how to make money, you will understand after the shop is opened.

Lu Dasong still felt that it sounded unreliable, but the old lady patted him, Thats enough. If Erya says theres no problem, then theres no problem. You havent even been out of the county before, and youre not as knowledgeable as Erya. What do you know?

Lu Dasong was speechless. His heart was p.r.i.c.ked.

He waved his hand, Forget it, forget it. Since youre already at this stage, just Just try it then. If you need any help, let me know.

The old lady snorted, Whats the point of telling you? Your wife is not willing to help anyway.

Embarra.s.sed, Lu Dasong stood up and said, Ahem, Im going to third brothers house to see the mule carriage too.

In fact, he had been itching to do so. Other than Madam Li, who had gone to wash clothes by the river, all the children had gone to his third brothers house. Even though Daniu and Lanhua were there too, he was still worried and had to go keep an eye.

After saying that, he left, giving them some s.p.a.ce to discuss.

Only then did Shu Yu say to the old lady and the others, Ive rented a shop for two taels of silver a month. Its on Ningshui Street. Ive paid the rent for half a year.

Ningshui Street? Lu Erbai frowned, The rent on Ningshui Street isnt that cheap. Erya, is there something wrong with the shop?

Theres no problem, Shu Yu didnt hide it from them and told them that the shop was a token of Lord Yus kindness.

When the old lady heard this, she snorted coldly, Then even those two taels of silver are too much. If he didnt want a pair of twins, the old lady of the Ruan family wouldnt have such bad thoughts. Fortunately, Erya was here. Otherwise, I would have hung myself at the Yu familys door.

Lu Erbai hurriedly said, Mum, dont spout nonsense.

Shu Yu grabbed the old ladys hand, The rent is a little cheap, so lets not tell anyone to avoid trouble.

We understand.

The next step is to clean up the shop. Ive already asked Butler Yu to help move the extra cabinets. Ill find a craftsman to change the layout, and we can open for business after that.

Then, Shu Yu turned to Madam Ruan, Mum, youre going to be busy from now on.

Madam Ruan couldnt wait, Erya, tell me what I should do. I can definitely do it well.

I drew a few sketches of clothes. Although its a little rough, itll more or less work. Mum, make some small samples according to the sketches I give you. If theres no problem, well make adult sizes. As for the exact measurements

Base it on my measurements, then.

Madam Ruan was slightly excited, Okay, tell me the details. I cant help much with other matters, but its definitely not a problem for me to make clothes. I can start today..
