Chapter 1363 Advantages
Now seeing the eldest son coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Chu Jin read all the ledgers. The daily expenses of five people plus monthly silver amounted to about thirty taels a year.
Although the assets of the Chu family are not too much now, Chu Jin feels that it is not worthwhile to be so empty.
I was thinking about opening a store and arranging a few people.
"Second housekeeper, what skills do you have?" Chu Jin asked after doing the research first.
The second steward replied: "Returning to the young master, the old slave is literate and can read the account books. The housekeeper also knows a few nearby counties. I don't know what the young master needs the old slave to do?"
"It's okay, I'll ask first." Chu Jin understood that the second housekeeper is suitable for such a big thing as the shopkeeper, the housekeeper.
He asked Accountant Xu again: "Mr. Xu, what about you?"
"If you go back to the young master, the young one can settle accounts, and usually copy books and sell them in bookstores." Xu the accountant said hesitantly.
He subconsciously glanced at the young master, afraid that the other party would be dissatisfied with his behavior, but the other party only needed to check casually to find out, and it was not wise to hide it.
"So, that means Mr. Xu, you can write articles?" Chu Jin rubbed his chin, wondering what the other party could do.
Xu accountant waved his hand modestly: "Where is it? I just write some random notebooks and copy books. There is nothing worth showing off."
"Success, I understand."
Chu Jin asked the second housekeeper: "Where are the other three? Are you here?"
"Come here, just wait at the door."
There are few people on weekdays, and they all live in the back room, which is close to the door, so it is convenient to notify if there is anything.
"Call them in."
The second housekeeper got the order, and quickly called the cook and the two sweeping maids over, and introduced the three of them: "Master, this is Cook Madam He, and this round-faced maid is the daughter of Chef He. He Xiaohui, the other maid is Zhuya."
"Ms. He, how is your cooking skill? Are you usually strong? What skills do you have?" Chu Jin asked.
The second housekeeper ordered: "You answer according to the young master's question."
Uneasy, Cook Niang nodded quickly, "The cooking skills of the servants can only be considered average, similar to those of the snack shops on the street, and not as good as the cooks in restaurants."
"With a handful of strength, it is not a problem to carry two buckets of water."
"And you?"
He Xiaohui also said in a waxy voice: "Returning to the young master, the servant girl can do needlework well, so she can embroider handkerchiefs and sell them."
Zhu Ya was younger, seeing the young master looking over, he immediately followed up and said: "This servant has only learned embroidery for two years, and I haven't yet graduated from the teacher."
"What about the advantages?" Chu Jin saw that it was over, and continued to ask: "For example, you know what others don't."
Zhu Ya's face flushed red: "I can order everything, but I'm not good at anything."
"This child is obedient and diligent." The second housekeeper also understood what Chu Jin was going to ask at this moment, and took the initiative to explain to Zhuya.
Chu Jin nodded: "That's right, everyone should have advantages."
He didn't care how curious the five people were. He planned to open a grocery store and sell everything. If the sea goes well, he will be able to sell overseas items next year.
The reason why he considered the fruit shop was because he had visited his own fruit forest before, and he could produce a lot every year, especially in May and June, when it was ripe, it would be a large piece, and the number was extremely large, and the picking was a little slow. It is easy to waste, according to Guolin's servants, at that time, it will have to be used to feed pigs and so on.
