Zhou Lijun's eyes brightened, and he said, "The ointment, the whitening cream and the acne-removing cream made by the seller."
She said: "Sister-in-law, let's eat first, and I will settle the bill for you after the meal."
Man Bao couldn't help asking: "Do we have so much money in our family now?"
"There is none in the public house," Zhou Lijun said, "Now most of the money in the public house is in the hands of my fourth uncle."
But Zhou Zhoulang is now on the grassland. By the way, Xiang Mingxue also followed Zhou Zhoulang to the grassland. It has only been there for a month, and he is probably still collecting all kinds of goods on the grassland now.
He won't be back until at least the end of September.
So Zhou Lijun wants each family to contribute money. If my sister-in-law agrees to this matter, it will be half the battle.
Man Bao asked: "How much money does Gongzhong have now?"
Zhou Lijun: "More than three hundred taels."
Quite a lot, after all, some time ago when Zhou Lang came to the capital, he took out the account book and divided up the money he earned from last autumn to this summer. Now the public’s money is still for selling ointments in the past few months, and restaurant management should The money returned to the public.
Thinking of the money she received this year and the money she brought back in exchange for gems and spices, Man Bao suddenly became angry, "Okay, let's buy it."
For the gems and spices that Man Bao gave to Zhou Lang, Zhou Lang didn't even keep his hard work, and basically brought her back as much as he sold.
First sold in the capital, and then went all the way south, went to Yizhou to make a round, sold all the things in hand, and made a lot of money.
In addition to Zhou Man's distribution of money from the public this year, there are even more.
But why did Zhou Lijun think about buying a shop
You must know that they have rented a yard outside that specializes in ointments and various creams. Old customers come to buy directly, and sometimes they bring new customers. They earn a lot.
After dinner, Zhou Lijun held a cup of tea and talked with Zhou Man in the yard, "Originally, Fifth Aunt and the others only made limited products, and only these people in the capital could afford these whitening creams and acne creams, so I thought There is no need to buy a shop, but during this period of time, because of vaccinia, many people came to buy light printing ointment from us, and even some drug dealers from outside came to our door, so I think we need a shop, and it must be a Good shop."
Man Bao pondered, "But we only have these kinds of creams, is it too little?"
Zhou Lijun said: "I used to think that it was rare, but now I don't think so. In the past two years, many people have used our whitening cream. Not only women use it, but some gentlemen also use it. Especially the acne cream, the sales volume is very good. So I thought it would be great to be able to do these things well, and with my sister-in-law's current ability and age, there will be more prescriptions in the future."
Man Bao thought it made sense, so he nodded, "Okay, how much money do I want to pay?"
Zhou Lijun said: "I've done the math, these prescriptions are all given by you, my aunt, so you take 10% of the silver, and I will only count one room for the other houses, so if you exclude this house, there are seven houses. 30% of the cost to claim 10% of the share."
Man Bao was taken aback, "One room, one price?"
Zhou Lijun nodded, "That's right, 10% per house, that's 80% in total, the remaining 20% goes to the public, and 10% is left to run the shop every year in dividends, and the remaining 10% is given to grandma."
In other words, their Qifang is responsible for sharing the share of the company.
Man Bao thought for a while, but did not object, "Will the other houses agree?"
Zhou Lijun smiled and said, "As long as you agree, sister-in-law, the other rooms will agree."
Needless to say, uncle and aunt, they will definitely follow sister-in-law, her mother doesn't care, she can convince her father, third uncle will listen to grandma, fourth uncle, fifth uncle, sixth uncle and sister-in-law are the best, and they will not object.
Zhou Lijun said with a smile: "At that time, I will make a good rule. The fourth aunt and the fifth aunt can go to the back of the shop to work as stewards. They will be in charge of making the ointment, and they will be paid every month."
In this way, everyone is not idle and can still count money.
Man Bao asked: "How much do you expect to spend at the beginning?"
Zhou Lijun hesitated for a moment and said, "Ten thousand taels."
A man as rich as Man Bao couldn't help but be speechless, it was too expensive.
"I'm nothing. Would other houses be willing to spend so much money?"
She felt that this had almost emptied the property of each house.
Although Zhou Zhoulang has made a lot of money in the past few years, he can probably earn a few hundred or more than a thousand taels a year after excluding all costs. He made a profit of two thousand eight hundred taels, but at that time Zhou Zhou Lang took the risk to buy pearls, but later he stopped doing this business.
Firstly, I was afraid that I would have to change my business status if I made it too big;
Second, it is indeed more dangerous to enter pearls.
Then so much money is divided into many shares, after all, everyone has a share in it.
However, this amount of money is still a lot, at least it was the money that the old Zhou family had saved for seven or eight years before.
So even the old Zhou Tou couldn't help sighing, "It's no wonder that capable people want to do business instead of farming."
But doing business, especially one like Zhou Zhou Lang, is indeed hard work. You can tell from the face of Zhou Zhou Lang. He has aged much faster than Friday Lang and Saturday Lang in the past few years. It's not Man Bao's most handsome brother at all.
There is no pressure for Man Bao to pay 1,300 taels, because she has many ways to get money, but for other houses, it is difficult to pay 1,300 taels.
Especially the eldest brother and third brother.
At night, Man Bao sneaked over to find her sister-in-law.
When Zhou Dalang saw her coming, he got up and went to the outer room, and handed over the inner room to their sister-in-law to talk.
Man Bao quietly asked Xiao Qian, "Sister-in-law, how much money have you and brother saved?"
Xiaoqian asked her, "Are you short of money?"
Man Bao shook his head, whispered about Li Jun's purchase of a shop, and then whispered: "Li Jun has calculated in private, and after buying the shop, he will be able to earn back the money for buying the shop in about a year. "
Xiaoqian was speechless, "You make so much money?"
Man Bao said reservedly: "The main reason is that it is just in time for vaccination. Many people know the creams such as acne cream and whitening cream because of the light-printed ointment. Some men love to buy them more than women. Now the business is much better. Li Jun has calculated in private that the current sales volume has at least doubled compared to before."
So they still have to hire someone.
Little Qian took a look outside, and then asked in a low voice: "Then how much money does our eldest family want to pay?"
"You tell me how much you have first."
Xiaoqian said: "More than eight hundred taels."
Man Bao was startled, and asked, "Why are there so few?"
Xiaoqian smiled and said: "You forgot, not long after Datou got married, we bought him 20 acres of land in the suburbs of Beijing as a betrothal gift, plus other things, we spent a lot one after another. Santou is not young anymore, we are talking to him recently."
Xiaoqian sighed at this point, "The capital city is different from our village, and now our family is also different from before. In the past, it only cost five or six taels to marry a daughter-in-law in the village. With the banquet, seven or eight taels is enough. , looking at it now, at least a hundred taels will be enough."
