Chapter 1811 - 1813: The Power of Love
Yang Dong really didn’t disappoint. After being away for a month, he brought back quite a few new and interesting things that Shanshi County didn’t have.
Plus, their own hazelnuts were unique, and that’s how the shop opened.
The hazelnuts had long been turned into dishes at Yuelai Restaurant, so even the people of Shanshi County recognized their value. Some came specifically for the hazelnuts.
In short, it was a great start!
In the morning, the Chu Family, Zhong Family, and Li Family came to congratulate them and then returned.
When it was time to eat, there wasn’t any food made at home, so everyone planned to have a meal at Yuelai Restaurant.
Moreover, Yang Dong did things very thoughtfully; he had already reserved a spot at Yuelai Restaurant—one for the family, one for the neighboring bosses who came to celebrate during the day, and also for the bosses from the supply channels.
Yang Dong dragged Yang Ming to dine with those bosses, which was also to make a good impression.
The Yang Family ate in another private room.
Seeing Yang Dong handling things so maturely and steadily now, Yang Gang couldn’t help but sigh, "Dad, who would’ve thought our youngest here would be so capable, making us and big brother look bad!"
On the other side, Yang Chun also opened up somewhat embarrassedly, "Yeah, third and fourth brother are much stronger than the two of us."
Especially seeing third and fourth brothers mingling with those shopkeeper bosses, while they, as the eldest brothers, didn’t stand out at all—it made them feel somewhat ashamed.
Old Father Yang could clearly understand his two sons’ words, but what could be done? Those who are capable step forward; he wasn’t stopping it.
So he responded, "Fourth has the ability, so don’t be envious. Fourth hasn’t secretly kept any Silver; our family hasn’t split, and the earned Silver is still ours. You don’t lack food or clothing. If you have ideas like Fourth, I won’t stop you either."
Upon hearing this, Yang Chun immediately said, "Dad, where did you come up with that? We know our own weight and measure. We aren’t as capable as third and fourth brothers."
The second brother Yang Gang agreed, "Exactly, Dad, we don’t have that ability."
They didn’t mean to be jealous; they simply felt they were not as good and were ashamed, hence saying such things.
At this moment, Yang Gang’s wife teased Yang Gang, "Indeed, you don’t have the skills of the fourth brother. Just do your own work well."
"Fourth brother, well, hey, third sister-in-law, how do you put it again, oh right, the power of love; he’s putting all his energy to match Li Chuntao! Let’s not hold him back, just sit and count Silver!"
"..."

The family chatted and laughed, and the meal was extremely enjoyable!
Four Seasons Department Store just opened; it’s quite busy. After helping out for a few days, when there were fewer people, they returned to Yang Family Village.
But some were left behind, Yang Qiu stayed, as Yang Qiu often went to the Cloth Shop, and staying was more convenient.
Yang Ming’s mother stayed to help Yang Dong with the shop, and to cook meals, tidying up the place.
However, even with this arrangement, manpower was still insufficient. Yang Dong often had to go out for supplies, leaving no one to sell goods in the shop. After considering, he hired two people for the shop, worrying that the hired people might not be reliable, he specifically sought Chu Lian to recruit two dependable people.
And so, Four Seasons Department Store officially opened for business. When people from Yang Family Village found out, they often asked Yang Family members to bring things back. After going back and forth, Xiaoxiao decided to renovate the warehouse at home.
Turned it into a small convenience store!
