After people took sides, Chu Qingzhi counted. There were 105 people. It didn’t matter if there were a few more. “You guys can stay and work for our family.” Everyone was immediately overjoyed, and their faces were filled with smiles. The others who weren’t chosen were all dejected.

Chu Qingzhi cleared her throat and said, “My family needs 35,000 wooden sticks a day. You will earn a copper coin for every three wooden sticks you make. We need about 70 people to take on this job. Which of you want to do it?”

“Me!”

“Me!”

“Me!”

Voices sounded from all directions.

Chu Qingzhi used the previous selecting method. “Those who have at least two elders and those who have at least three children at home, please stand on my left.”

There were 80 people in this group.

Chu Qingzhi said, “You have to sign a contract for this. Each person will have to provide 450 sticks a day. For every three sticks you make, you will earn one copper coin. Can you do it?”

Everyone said in unison, “Sure!”

“Alright.” Chu Qingzhi nodded and looked at everyone. “Next is the most important thing.”

Everyone’s cars pricked up.

Chu Qingzhi said, “There are three county cities around us. I plan to sell 10,000 ice cream bars in each county city. There are two ways to sell them.”

“The first is that I will hire you to sell it for me. The second is that you can take the goods from me and sell them yourself.”

“If you sell it for me, there will be no risk. You don’t have to pay, and I’ll pay you instead.”

“If you take the goods from me and sell it yourself, you’ll have to pay for the goods. Of course, you’ll also earn a lot. I guarantee that selling 10,000 ice cream bars in each county city will be no problem.”

Chu Qingzhi glanced at everyone. “Does anyone want to sell it yourself?”

Third Uncle’s son, Chu Xuede, said loudly, “Me. I want to sell it myself. Qingzhi, how much docs a piece of ice cream bar cost if we buy it from you directly?”

Chu Qingzhi raised her voice and said, “The more you buy, the more discounts you get. Anywhere below 500 pieces, it’ll be four copper coins each. Above 500 pieces, it’ll be three copper coins each. Above 1,000 pieces, it’ll be two copper coins each. By the way, you can only sell the sugar ice cream bar at five copper coins a piece. Don’t raise the price casually. Otherwise, people will not buy it.”

The market price had already been set, and everyone had already accepted it. Raising the price casually would cause them to lose customers.

Chu Qingzhi added, “”In addition, the business can start tomorrow. If you want to sell it yourself, come to me to register. This is your first time working with me. I understand that you are worried, so I won’t take the money from you for the time being. I’ll collect the money after you sell the ice cream bar.”

This approach greatly increased everyone’s enthusiasm. Almost everyone decided to sell the ice cream bars themselves.

Chu Xuede praised, “Qingzhi, you’re too thoughtful.”

Chu Qingzhi gave him an unfathomable look. “Those people who make wooden sticks, come and sign the contract first. After signing it, you can go back and start working.”

Those people walked to Chu Qingzhi to sign the contract, their eyes filled with excitement.

After signing the contract, Chu Qingzhi registered the people who wanted to sell on their own.

Chu Qingzhi waved at Chu Xuede. “Uncle Xuede, come over. I’ll register your name first.”

Chu Xuede replied enthusiastically, “Coming.”

Zhou Qingzhong stood at the back of the crowd, his eyes filled with envy.

Zhao Xiuhua pushed Zhou Qingzhong. “Go register too!”

Zhou Qingzhong was not confident. “Mother, will she let us sell ice cream bars?”

Zhao Xiuhua was extremely anxious. There were so many people waiting to get registered. If she did not seize the opportunity, it would be too late. “You’ll know when you try.”

Zhou Qingzhong took a deep breath and walked over to line up.

He made up his mind that if Chu Qingzhi did not agree, he would soften his attitude and say some nice words.

Unexpectedly, Chu Qingzhi agreed without hesitation. As long as he followed her rules, she didn’t care who took the goods from her.

After the names were all registered, Chu Qingzhi started to worry about the production.

Such a large-scale production needed to be properly arranged. Otherwise, the efficiency would decrease.

She called the hundred or so people to the backyard and began to make arrangements one by one. It took her an hour to make the arrangements.

After that, she asked everyone to go back and eat. After eating, they would come back and start making molds. With the molds, they could start producing..
