Xiaoqian said: "Three heads don't count, he may not settle in the capital in the future, but here with the big head, his wife is an imperial physician, so it would be better to buy a house in the capital in the future."
But the house in the capital is too expensive, and their family has to save for at least many years to buy it.
Xiaoqian asked again: "How much does it cost to buy a shop? Do you want two thousand taels?"
Now their restaurant is about the same price when they bought it.
Man Bao said: "It's not just the price, it's about 10,000 taels including all the costs."
Xiaoqian's mouth opened wide, this is not buying a shop, it is simply buying a mountain of gold.
Man Bao comforted her and said, "I earn a lot, I trust Li Jun's eyes.
Xiaoqian also believed it, but their family didn't have so much money.
She whispered: "Can I buy less? How many shares can I buy if I pay 800 taels?"
Man Bao smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, this share is rare and hard to come by. I have seen Li Jun's calculations. If the accounts are really as she calculated, then we can earn back the cost invested in the first year. The shop makes a net profit even if the cost of making the ointment is removed.”
Xiaoqian didn't quite believe it, "I know the ointment our family makes, and occasionally I also help out. I heard Li Jun said that a bottle of moisturizing white cream only earns two or three hundred cash. How much do you have to sell a day?" Bottle, only earning ten thousand taels a year?"
Man Bao said: "Both Li Jun and Fourth Brother have found merchants. As long as our shop can be opened, they can immediately take the money and come up to ask for goods."
This is also the reason why Zhou Lijun asked for a cost of 10,000 taels. Excluding the 8,670 taels needed to buy a shop, the rest of the decoration and shelves do not cost much. She has seen Li Jun's calculation list, she The money spent on decoration is only eighteen taels, and all the rest is used to buy raw materials.
And the large-scale production of ointment white cream is for selling to merchants who come to buy goods, that is to say, this shop of theirs is not only for retail, but also for wholesale to those merchants, just like those cloth shops.
Zhou Lijun obviously didn't come up with it on a whim. She had planned it for a long time. She was different from Zhou Zhoulang.
When she walked door to door with the moisturizer and white cream in her pocket and recommended it to various ladies, she wanted to buy a shop or rent a shop, but because there were few people who bought it at that time, a can of moisturizer white cream could be used for three or two months. , and some people don't use it frequently, and some people use it for a year.
So she didn't dare to take the risk.
She has been waiting. During this period, when she is free, she recommends their whitening cream and various ointments and creams to the merchants she knows, and she also pulls Zhou Zhoulang together. Now many people outside know about Zhou Ji's creams and ointments.
Coupled with the light printing ointment produced by the vaccinia vaccination this time, Zhou Lijun knew that her opportunity had come, and at the same time, their family's opportunity had also come.
She was going to open a shop, a shop dedicated to selling these ointments and creams.
As long as she can make money and let her niece show her ambitions, Man Bao will naturally not object, and she is very confident about it.
She whispered to Xiaoqian: "This ointment and cream will be sold well. Lijun and fourth brother have been planning for this for two years. If you don't buy enough, it will be a big loss."
She said: "Believe it or not, if you say that you don't have enough money, the fourth brother will snap up the share you missed."
Xiaoqian said: "I won't give it to him, I will give it to you. Man Bao, don't you have money? Then you will pay to buy it."
Man Bao smiled and said, "No, I will lend you and elder brother money, and you will pay me back when you make money."
When Xiaoqian wanted to speak, Man Bao whispered: "I've done the calculations, if you don't have enough money, brother and sister-in-law, then the third brother must also not have enough money, and I will make up for what you lack."
Little Qian stopped talking.
Man Bao said in a low voice: "You and elder brother are the elders, so you must be better than others in this regard, otherwise the relationship between brothers is good now, it doesn't look obvious, and you will bow your head in the future, you and elder brother What about the brothers and sisters?"
Xiaoqian sighed: "Your third brother is honest, he is in charge of the family land now, so it should be me and your elder brother staying at home..."
Man Bao smiled and said: "So, I will also make up for the third brother's share, and then I will pay you back when you make money."
As for the other houses, there must be enough money.
Because individuals only pay 40% of the money they earn to the public school, like the husband and wife of Tuesday Lang, Thursday Lang, Friday Lang and Saturday Lang, they all have their own abilities, so they earn a lot every year, and the rest is shared by the public. money.
In contrast, Zhou Dalang and Zhou Zhoulang, who are both honest people, basically spend time in the fields, and the fields belong to the public, so they earn very little private property.
Lao Zhoutou and Qian Shi also knew that the first and third families were at a disadvantage when sharing the money, so they occasionally secretly subsidized some, but they still had a daughter who was not married, so the subsidy was limited.
Just throw in a few pieces of silver occasionally, or ask Zhou Zhoulang to bring back some meat when he returns home.
Man Bao found out the private house of the eldest brother and sister-in-law, and had a rough estimate of the third brother's family fortune. Well, the third brother can't make more money than the eldest brother.
The main reason is that the eldest brother has a sister-in-law, and the sister-in-law also gets money for the steamed meat she cooks in restaurants.
The third brother really has almost no private income.
After Man Bao made up his mind, he called his family members for a meeting. Of course, Lang Zhou and Lang Zhou who were far away in Qili Village, and Lang Zhou who was on the grassland failed to attend the meeting.
But they all have their own sons as representatives.
Zhou Liwei had no objections, and Zhou Ligu would not have any, his parents told him to take good care of his younger brother before leaving, and listen to his grandmother and sister-in-law for the rest.
Everyone was overwhelmed by 10,000 taels.
Zhou Lijun had an abacus to settle the accounts for them, and showed them the channel she had negotiated so far, which meant that as long as it was made, someone would buy it.
Old Zhou Tou was the first to raise a question, "Since we have found a market, we can directly make ointment and sell it to them. Why do we need to spend more than 8,000 taels to buy a shop?"
Fang and the others were also skeptical about this, and they all knew this Friday, and said to Lao Zhou, "Father, if you don't have a shop, merchants outside would not dare to buy large quantities of things that touch your face."
Zhou Li nodded his head, and explained in more detail: "Now most of these ointments in our family are sold to people in the capital. These people were my sister-in-law's patients from the beginning. They bought them because they trusted her. Later, they thought it was easy to use and recommended one. This is the reason for the current sales volume, but if there is no shop, people who don’t know outside will not dare to buy it.”
In the beginning, Zhou Lijun followed Man Bao's ass in and out of those wealthy households, selling them bottle by bottle.
