Chapter 230

Therefore, although leisurely courtyard is a little far away from Gongyuan, it is full in the end because of the reasonable price. After the end of Chunwei, although some of them checked out, they were full again soon. Someone who is going to stay in the capital and wait for the next section of Chunwei has moved here after hearing about it. After all, the rent of this place is one-third cheaper. In addition, leisurely also introduced a preferential policy. Originally, the two shops had just opened, and everything was sold at a 10% discount. Leisurely stipulated that all students who rent a courtyard should pay 10% discount when they buy things in their own bookstores, and 20% discount when they buy things in silk shops. In this way, although the profit is thin, the business is booming under the condition of small profit but quick turnover. After more than three months, I took a leisurely look at the profits of these shops. I was surprised. It was only a quarter, and I earned nearly 4000 taels of silver. She originally estimated that it would be good if the bookstore could barely support itself in the first year, but she didn't expect that it made the most money. In February, it made a profit of 1500 taels of silver. However, January and March do not add up to this number, and each month is only five or six hundred taels. Even so, leisurely feels that it is much more than he thinks.

These shops were not handed over to outsiders. They were handed over to Yang Lu, the second cousin of my uncle's family. Although Yang Lu was a scholar, he failed in the two examinations. He just said that he was not the material. Uncle also knew that although the second son was clever, he was not as patient as his eldest son, so he went with him. Just after the new year, he came to the capital to visit his aunt's family, ready to find something to do. Leisurely, you can't find a suitable person to take care of these shops. When you meet Yang Lu, the second cousin, who is looking for a job, you can make peace with him. Yang Lu becomes the manager of the two shops and the yard.

Because he was a brother and sister of his own, he didn't have so many taboos. Leisurely, he directly asked, "second brother, you don't have a frame for me, can you earn so much money in such a bookstore in a month? I've calculated that if the discount is over, those books and other things won't make much money. "

Yang Lu said with a smile, "how can my cousin forget that we only sell books, and we still have ink, ink, paper and inkstones? That's the big money maker! Especially good inkstones and graphite. I took part in the imperial examination myself, don't you know? Even if it's simple on weekdays, in order to be more smooth in the exam, it will also be hard to buy a good pen and a piece of ink. A good piece of pine smoke ink costs only one hundred and twenty-six silver. We can sell it for six Liang every day. After discount, we can sell it for four hundred and twenty-eight money, making a net profit of more than three Liang. Even better Huimo earns more, which is nearly ten liang of profit. Those people are not stupid. I heard that our products are cheap, and many of them come from all over the world. And a buy is four or five yuan of a lot of people, even if they can't use it, give people is also excellent. We could sell dozens of pieces of graphite a day for half a month before Chunwei. That's a profit of one or two hundred taels of silver. There is the Lake pen, one or two silver a sell the most, a pen is a discount also has two money profit, although the profit is thinner, but sell more, which candidates do not prepare two or three pens in case? At most, it sold more than 400 pieces in one day. But it's also a bargain for Chunwei. In April, there won't be so much profit. I estimate that a hundred taels of silver a month will be the best. "

In this way, plus the income of the silk shop and the rent behind, it is reasonable to have such income. Leisurely nodded and said, "it's good for me to say so much money. Originally, I was just preparing to earn some money. But I think the profit of this silk shop is much worse than I expected. " She had estimated that the silk shop was the biggest earner. She had to earn two or three hundred taels of silver every month. But she didn't expect to earn five hundred taels of silver in three months, which was not very small, but it was worse than she thought. After all, how many people were there in Chunwei? On weekdays, I'm afraid they didn't even make half of the profits.

Yang Lu said, "we don't have a big shop. It's good to make money every month. Moreover, I think the silk shop is in a hurry. The materials are not well prepared. In addition, although there are more students living in this area, the shop also needs some cheaper cotton cloth and so on. After all, when they don't go out on weekdays to meet guests, most of them are dressed in cotton clothes, as well as the servants around them. These people can't wear silk. "

"Leisurely smile" my cousin said that I was thoughtless. But my cousin also knows that these silks and satins are all from the shop of the princess. It's not easy to change them at will, but there is no ordinary muslin in the shop of the princess. Songjiang cloth is more expensive than ordinary silk. I don't know if my cousin knows anyone in the cotton business? "

Yang Lu shook his head. "I really don't know this one." While talking, Shen Ze came back from the Yamen. Seeing Yang Lu, he said with a smile, "it turns out that my uncle and brother are here. Just in time, someone else gave me two roe deer that I just shot down. I let the kitchen clean them up. I'll ask someone to invite angel in later. How about we have a few drinks tonight? " Wen Yan Yang Lu said with a smile, "that's a good feeling. Since I came to Beijing, I didn't have a chance to go hunting in the mountains. I really like these game."

When Shen Ze saw the account book on the table, he said with a smile, "you are making an inventory? What about? In recent months, we have made a lot of money? How much money did you earn? " Leisurely smile and stretch out three fingers, Shen Ze smile "three hundred liang? It's enough for you to make clothes. " On hearing this, the tea in Yang Lu's mouth didn't come out. My cousin and son-in-law are really unspeakable

Leisurely laughed and patted him, then showed him the account book. "You see clearly, it's more than three thousand Liang, not three hundred Liang." After reading this figure, Shen Ze was a little surprised. In just a few months, such a huge profit is really not small. But when I think of Chunwei only once in three years, I feel relieved. Straight smile way "is really a lot, my former husband afraid you lost money after crying, are ready to fill the hole for you, did not expect to earn so much all of a sudden, the lady is really good at financial management." In front of his cousin's face, leisurely is not easy to make trouble, only white his eyes, said with a smile, "you talk first, I'll go to the kitchen to have a look."

So leisurely he ordered his servants to set up a set of cars to pick up Yang Lu's wife, Xu's family, and their two children. He also asked the kitchen to prepare more food and wine, and sent someone to invite Yulian's mother and daughter. They were busy all the time.

Shen Ze's words were not a joke. When Shen Ze saw that she had bought such a piece of land, he thought there was little chance to make money, but it was only three or four thousand taels of silver. It was her own private house, so he held back and didn't speak. Later, she continued to put in several thousand Liang, for fear that the money would be lost. He didn't care about the money, or he was afraid of wanyiyihuang. Leisurely, he was not happy. It's just that it's not easy to pour cold water on her. I just think that if she loses money, I will supplement her in private. I didn't expect that now it's just after Chunwei, half of the original investment has come back. There are not so many people after Chunwei, but Wenhua street, as the most famous cultural center of the Dakang Dynasty, is not a small number of students who come to visit and study every year. With thousands of students from Wenhua academy and Guozijian and elementary school girls of all sizes, it's more than enough to earn pocket money on weekdays. Although the shop is run by her cousin, the big idea is that she should make her own decisions. When you think about it, the income of your farm has increased by several percent since your wife came in. You can't help admiring your wife's way of management.
