Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Qingyao thought about it. This was her own younger cousin. When she had the time, she must go and check out the situation.
“Wait a while. I’ve just opened, and I’ll be busy for the next few days. The little supermarket is opening too. When the rush is over, I’ll go to your restaurant and take a look.”
Gu Fangting’s eyes brightened. “Great, great! Older Cousin, you must help me! I just cannot identify the problem!”
“Mhm!”
Over the next few days, Gu Fangting did not leave. She followed Gu Qingyao around to see how she dealt with problems. As for her own business, she just handed it over to Jiang Xun to run.
Jiang Xun was really a wonderful boyfriend. He not only had school work, but he also had to deal with his own business. Now he had to help his girlfriend take care of her business. He really doted on Gu Fangting.

The supermarket opened, and the business was just as good. The income was slightly higher than the restaurant, just a little over 3,000 yuan.
Gu Qingyao knew that the restaurant business would boom in the future. The supermarket might not be able to keep up. But she was not sure what would happen in the long term. She needed to observe further.
The next day, the restaurant’s business was really much better. Today, they did not give out baijiu or fruit juice. They had to be paid for, which increased the profits.
When they closed up shop that night, they made just over 3,400 yuan.
Their profits increased every day after that. It peaked on the fifth day, which was a Saturday and an off-day for most workers. They earned 12,610 yuan, which stunned Gu Fangting!
“So… so much?”
The takings had increased every day. Would it continue to climb in the future?
Heavens!
Her older cousin was incredible at earning money!
She had made more than 12,000 yuan in a day. Wouldn’t that add up to a few million yuan in a year?
In this era, people who had ten thousand yuan were considered to be rich, and everyone envied them. But her older cousin had earned that sum in just one day.
Gu Qingyao looked at the statement of accounts that had been presented to her. She smiled. “We have not yet reached the peak. It’s Sunday tomorrow. We’ll probably earn just as much. The earnings should dip a little on Monday, then there will be a small peak next Sunday. We’ve just opened for a few days. Many people have yet to hear of us!
“When the people who have eaten here go back and talk about it, there will definitely be more customers next Sunday.”
Gu Fangting said, “Does that mean that you’ve made a fortune?”
Gu Qingyao paused. “This is nothing. This is only a small sum. It’s a far cry from real money!”
Gu Fangting was stunned. Her living circumstances were already the best. But she had no way of imagining just how wealthy the wealthy families were.
Gu Qingyao frowned. She felt that Gu Fangting lacked training. In the future, she would bring her along more often so that she could gain experience. Then she would not be like that anymore.
But she knew she was demanding too much of Gu Fangting. She was a young girl who had just become an adult. Her current achievements were already remarkable. At present, many people who had received higher education looked down on entrepreneurs!
“Ting Ting, don’t just focus on this. Let me tell you, the truly wealthy are much, much richer than you can imagine. You just haven’t met them yet.
“Like the Qiao or the Qin family. When I got married, Uncle Qin casually added a car to my dowry. But let me tell you, even if Uncle Qin, Older Brother Qin Li or even Qin Si gave me a car each, they could well afford it.
“As for my older cousins, they are still young. But with their abilities, they could afford to give me a car each.. I refused to allow them to do that because it was too ostentatious. How rich do you think they are?”
