Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten-Chapter 57 - 56: Assigning Tasks
Chapter 57: Chapter 56: Assigning Tasks
What, his own brother actually dares to look down on his skills? Zhao Guangran was very angry and wanted to lash out at his older brother.
"If the smoked rabbits turn out well, we can sell them."
"The things you like to eat, many people outside will definitely like them. How many rabbits do you think you can catch?" Zhao Xuran painted a big picture for Zhao Guangran.
What, why sell delicious food? Zhao Guangran’s immediate reaction was that he wasn’t willing to sell the delicacies.
No, didn’t Nizi already agree with the family that as long as they earned the money by themselves, they could handle it however they wanted?
Doesn’t that mean if they really make the smoked rabbits, the money from selling them would be theirs?
As long as he has money in hand, he can buy candy whenever he wants, sparing himself the hassle of discussing candy issues with his stingy older brother.
Thinking of this, Zhao Guangran’s eyes lit up, "Big brother, the money from selling the rabbits is ours, right?"
The suggestion that Zhao Xuran made was actually also Gong Ruini’s idea. She thought that while the main business was handled by the parents, they could also catch some rabbits to sell for money.
But who would have thought this kid, Zhao Guangran, who used to stay silent and wasn’t willing to help out, would suddenly spring into action at the mention of selling rabbits for money.
This made Gong Ruini realize she had underestimated Zhao Guangran. Not only did he have a foodie trait, but he also had the trait of being money-obsessed.
"How many rabbits can you catch?"
"Do you know how to make smoked rabbits?" Gong Ruini retorted with a huff.
They haven’t even seen the fruits of victory, the ingredients haven’t been sorted out, and Gong Ruini doesn’t even know how to cook them. Yet this brat is only thinking about splitting the money, isn’t this too much?
If she doesn’t strike down this brat hard, Gong Ruini is really worried that by then, Zhao Guangran will just become a hands-off manager.
"No, I don’t," Zhao Guangran, with a face like ’I’m not a woman, why would I need to learn to make smoked rabbits,’ replied.
Of course, Zhao Guangran wasn’t stupid. If this rabbit was made by Mom and Aunt Cai, they definitely wouldn’t get a share of the money. For it to become his money, it had to be something the children settled on their own.
Zhao Guangran had already quickly figured out how to allocate the workforce, "My brother, Brother Rui Wen, and I will raise the rabbits together."
"Nizi, you are responsible for making the smoked rabbits." See, he knew how to assign tasks too, and effortlessly settled the matter.
Just thinking about it made Zhao Guangran quite smug, so the next time his big brother tells him he doesn’t do chores, he can bring up this task.
This distribution is really nifty, "Then who will kill the rabbits?"
"How do we clean the rabbits?"
They really oversimplified the production process, didn’t they? Gong Ruini thought that once the procedures really began, Zhao Guangran must be involved, so he could fully understand the difficulties of making food.
If she doesn’t show Zhao Guangran the process of making smoked rabbits, Gong Ruini really worries that this kid will later find making them to be exceedingly easy.
So she must keep that kid suppressed from the start to prevent him from being unruly.
"We can handle that," Zhao Xuran reassured while holding down his brother, fearing that if the kid tried to play boss and distribute tasks, he might just irritate Gong Ruini.
"We do all the physical work."
"Just guide us on what to do at the beginning." Zhao Xuran had a thought—they couldn’t miss such a great opportunity; maybe they could make some money out of it.
"Deal." Although it meant work, the way Zhao Xuran said it was comfortable, not the kind of demanding ’you have to work’ attitude.
Still, it’s nice to have their big brother around. Look, just now, when Gong Ruini was a bit displeased, but once their big brother took the lead, she got into a good mood.
Although Zhao Guangran was still somewhat dissatisfied, his admiration for Zhao Xuran and his craving for delicious food overpowered everything.
The four adults, Zhao Gang among them, were incredulous to watch Zhao Xuran rally the kids to discuss how to handle the task.
Watching the four children engrossed in a lively discussion, Zhao Gang swallowed hard, "Why do I feel so much pressure?"
Gong Tao shared the sentiment, "Yeah, I’m always worried that we’ll be overshadowed by these kids someday."
These are cultured and skilled men; if they got outrun by some young kids, although they are their children, it would still be quite embarrassing.
Zhan Jing snapped out of her shock and nudged Cai Meina, who was also dumbfounded beside her, "You’ve educated your Nizi quite well."
If previously the thought of wanting Gong Ruini to be her daughter-in-law was just an idea from Zhao Gang, at this moment, Zhan Jing couldn’t help but entertain a bit of hope that having a good daughter-in-law trumped a prestigious family background.
Zhan Jing really liked Gong Ruini. Her second son was quite a jumpy character, while Gong Ruini managed to keep him under control in all sorts of ways.
If there’s such a good daughter-in-law watching over him all the time, her son would surely stay on the right path.
With this thought, Zhan Jing looked at Gong Ruini with satisfaction, plotting how to lure her into their family.
"Then when spring comes, we should bring more rabbits to raise while they’re pregnant," Zhao Xuran set a general plan for it.
"Guangran, by then we’ll need to work hard to gather more grass for the rabbits to eat." freewёbnoνel.com
"The more grass you gather, the more rabbits we can have to make smoked rabbits."
"The more income we can earn." Zhao Xuran didn’t believe Zhao Guangran would stick it out, so he had to let him know that more work meant more returns.
"Got it." This is over the top, and why don’t the other two remind them? Zhao Guangran was quite indignant; his brother was unbelievably biased.
"Brother Xuran, don’t worry, my brother and I will definitely gather a lot of grass for the rabbits to eat." How could this guy be dissatisfied, does he think Zhao Xuran is targeting him?
This kid should seriously take a look; regardless of who it was, even she, a girl younger than Zhao Guangran, had to work hard, yet he blamed Zhao Xuran for targeting him.
"In the end, we should properly assess who has contributed the most and distribute the income based on work credits," Gong Ruini wouldn’t let Zhao Guangran opt for equal shares, which would just lead him to slack off, something they couldn’t indulge.
What, are they really going to distribute income based on work credits? Zhao Guangran was dumbfounded, "We’re not adults."
Zhao Guangran felt very wronged; wasn’t he being singled out in all sorts of ways?
"We’ll go with this plan." Although a bit unhappy with how blatantly it targeted Zhao Guangran, Zhao Xuran agreed.
But thinking about it, distributing the income this way would surely encourage his brother to work hard.
Zhao Xuran knew his brother would initially put in effort, but over time, he would surely slack off.
At that time, the Gong siblings would carry grievances, leading to horrible relationships all around.
Really? Hadn’t Zhao Guangran hoped Zhao Xuran would object? But his big brother just agreed, how unfair!
Zhao Guangran gave Zhao Xuran a puffy look, trying to make his feelings known.
Gong Ruini looked at him, resembling an angry toad, and secretly chuckled. No matter how this kid fussed, he couldn’t have his way.
Zhao Xuran must really understand his younger brother’s personality, so he agreed with no hesitation whatsoever.
Yet Zhao Guangran simply couldn’t grasp the intent behind Zhao Xuran’s actions, which shows that a brat is a brat, incapable of understanding so much.
