Although Fang Fangzhen is only a third-rank military officer without much real power, but I heard that he is quite favored by the emperor. In addition, a while ago, his master and junior were ordered to return to the capital, and they were granted the title of second-rank general of the town and entrusted with the power to lead the army. They will guard the northwest in a few days.
As the saying goes, if a father and son fight in battle, if a war breaks out in the northwest, then Fangfang Town will definitely be ordered in the face of danger. At that time, Zhao's father and son, master and apprentice, who will hold the military power, will definitely occupy a place in the court...
In a flash of thought, County Magistrate Wu decided to sell the house and make it a town, and let his subordinates reveal that the shop belonged to his family, and waited for the imperial envoy to speak. However, he never expected that the imperial envoy planned to buy it for his goddaughter. A few days ago, things were busy at the pier, so I forgot to ask. Today I finally found a chance to ask. County Magistrate Wu was still at home anxiously wondering what the Imperial Envoy meant? Do you want to buy it or not
In fact, Yu Xiaocao has already been tempted. In the previous life, most people would buy houses and real estate when they made money. Shops and storefronts are very good investments. Especially the stores in the downtown area have been fired at sky-high prices. In comparison, the shops in Tanggu Town are relatively cheap.
"Godfather, how much money do those two shops need?" Yu Xiaocao was afraid that she wouldn't be able to raise that much money for a while.
Seeing his daughter vomit, Fang Fangzhen was happier than buying a shop by himself. He grinned and said, "Girl, don't worry about the price! If you don't have enough money, godfather will put it on for you first, and then give it to me when you have money." !"
Yu Xiaocao gave him a blank look, and knew very well in her heart that if she let him put her on the mat this time, she would definitely shirk it in every possible way when returning him in the future. Her godfather is good enough to her, she doesn't want others to say that she recognizes her godfather for his money and power! Besides, there is still a godmother in the godfather's house, if she leaves a "greedy" impression on the godmother, she will have no tears to cry!
Zhou Zixu smiled even brighter, and he said cautiously to Fang Fangzhen's company: "Master Fang, you don't have to worry about Xiaocao not being able to pay for the shop, she is definitely a little rich woman now! Not to mention the share in the workshop, just For the share of sweet-scented osmanthus duck, buying two shops is a piece of cake!"
It has been almost two months since the sweet-scented osmanthus duck was on the market, and one small grass can earn half a tael of silver. The number of sweet-scented osmanthus ducks sold in Zhenxiu Tanggu Store and Jingcheng Store exceeds 200 at least every day. That is to say, Xiaocao's achievement is more than one hundred taels a day, and more than three thousand taels a month! It's no exaggeration to say she's a little rich woman!
Originally, Zhenxiu Restaurant agreed with the Yu family that the dividends could be distributed once a month, or once every six months. Yu Xiaocao thought it was troublesome, so she chose to pay dividends every six months, and didn't go to town much in the middle, not knowing how much money she had in her account.
Zhou Zixu briefly introduced the sales of sweet-scented osmanthus duck in his two stores. Several members of the Yu family were shocked when they heard that the share of Guang-osmanthus duck reached more than 5,000 taels. Have they ever seen so much silver? I thought that Xiaocao got 800 taels from the last sale, which was an astronomical sum. They never dreamed that they would have thousands of taels of wealth in this life!
Xiaoshi didn't hold the chopsticks in his hand, and fell to the table with a clatter. He stammered and said: "Second...Second Sister! In less than two months, our family has more than five thousand taels in the account, so... After that year, won't we be able to divide more than thirty thousand taels? Hurry up, who is quicker? Pinch me... Oops! Second sister, you are so ruthless—haha! This is not a dream! Will our family soon become the richest man in Dongshan Village?"
Zhou Zixu looked at the little stone dressed by Wen Sheng, with a dazed look, and laughed at him as worthless: "It's more than 30,000 taels of silver a year, which makes you so happy that you can't find North? That's just the income of sweet-scented osmanthus duck. If In addition to the share of the seasoning workshop, and the share of preserved eggs and vermicelli in the future, in a few years, let alone the richest man in Dongshan Village, he will be counted even in the town!"
Little Stone's eyes were as bright as stars, and his little face was full of excitement: "Great! You don't have to worry about not being able to pay Shuxiu in the future! The eldest brother will not be sent out to be an apprentice again! The eldest sister and the second sister will not be sent out as apprentices either! Selling to the Zhou family as a girl... Woohoo! I'm so happy!!"
He said he was happy, but the little guy covered his face and started crying! Regardless of Xiao Shitou's young age, he remembers all the hardships in his family deeply in his heart. Before the separation, their family was enslaved by their grandma. They couldn’t eat enough or wear warm clothes, and there was always endless work to do. After the separation, the house was so dilapidated that it was almost uninhabitable, and the family might run out of food at any time. My father was sick in bed with a leg injury, my mother was washing clothes for others, and my hands were frozen and bleeding, and my brother was beaten almost to death...
Scenes from the past seem to be still in sight! At that time, he never imagined that one day in the future, he would be able to live a good life when he wanted to eat rice, rice, and steamed buns, and he could eat meat from time to time; He still has a day when he can enter the most famous school in the town and study carefree; what's more, he didn't expect that his family could have an income of tens of thousands of taels of silver...
Yu Xiaocao put away the smile on her face and hugged the little guy in her arms. Little Shitou threw himself into the arms of the second sister and burst into tears. The second sister was like a little fairy in a fairy tale, there was nothing she couldn't do, nothing she couldn't do! Now he firmly believes that the second sister is the one blessed by the heavens and the one favored by the gods. And they are all in the light of the second sister!
The Yu family was soured by his mournful cry. They all thought of the situation a few months ago, it was so different from today! Recalling the past, the atmosphere froze for a moment.
Seeing that his daughter's eyes were red, Fang Fangzhen felt uncomfortable, so he interrupted the Yu family's contemplation, and cheered up the atmosphere: "Okay! Making money is a good thing, why are you crying? My daughter is capable, and she earns a month's worth of money." Money, more than godfather!! From now on, godfather will be ashamed to say that he will buy this or that for his daughter!"
Yu Xiaocao sniffed, her ruddy lips evoked a charming arc: "Godfather! In the future, Xiaocao will honor you and buy you a lot of things you like!"
"My daughter is filial piety! Godfather doesn't like anything, but likes to eat! You will cook more fresh dishes for godfather in the future, which is better than buying anything!" Make a request.
Yu Hai pretended to be pitiful on the side, and said dissatisfiedly: "Cao'er, just respect your godfather, what about my real father?"
"The same filial piety!" The old man who is vying for favor is like a cat just waiting to be stroked, he has to smooth his fur, "You must also be filial to your mother and godmother! In the future, I will marry a gentle and virtuous wife for my eldest brother, Prepare a lot of dowry for Xiao Lian, as well as our little stones, and the second sister will point to you as the number one scholar to become a high-ranking official, and support my sister!"
Xiao Shitou nodded vigorously, and said confidently: "Yes! Second sister! I will study hard! Although I entered the school half a year later than others, I am now the first in the enlightenment class! My husband said that I am talented. Gao, I will become a great talent in the future! When I get the first prize in the exam, I will definitely give my second sister a royal order... "
"Small sample! I don't know how to be modest at all!!" Yu Xiaocao laughed so hard that she pinched his bun face and said, "I only heard that there are people who earn orders for their mothers and daughter-in-laws, how can they earn orders for their sisters?"
Little Shitou didn't smile at all, he said solemnly: "Second sister, in my heart, you are as important as mother!!"
Yu Xiaocao was very moved, and hugged the little guy in her arms for a while. The scholar's towel on Xiao Shitou's head was all taken off, and his hair, which was combed meticulously, was also messed up like weeds. Little Shitou stopped pretending to be a little adult, and kept begging for mercy.
Next, while tasting the sweet watermelon, Zhou Zixu signed a supply contract with Yu Xiaocao. Every summer, the Zhou family cannot lack watermelon supply, but he has never eaten such a sweet and juicy watermelon. Moreover, if he remembered correctly, it would take two months for the watermelon to go on the market, and the Yu family took another step ahead.
Zhou Zixu accepted Yu Xiaocao's proposal, that is, for each table with more than one hundred taels of wine, a watermelon fruit plate will be given as a gift. In addition, the fruit plate is also sold separately! If the complimentary fruit plate is not satisfying, you can order it a la carte. The price is not cheap either!
"Xiaocao, hurry up and buy those two shops of yours, and you can open a fruit shop. Although our Tanggu Town is a small town, there are many rich people! There are also customers from south to north, and the consumption level is still good!" Zhou Zixu gave her a suggestion.
"Fruit shop? But watermelon is the only fruit in my house!" Yu Xiaocao recalled the dazzling array of fruit supermarkets in her previous life, which gathered most of the fruits from the north and south of the motherland. In comparison, isn't her fruit shop a little too pitiful
Thinking less on Wednesday, he said, "I do know a fruit wholesaler, if you need it..."
"Let's forget it! Our three acres of watermelons only sell for two or three months! Let's open a melon shop first! When the watermelons are sold out, we can rent out the shop! Our family has too few hands to be busy. !"
The vegetable field at home needs people to take care of it, and the crops of vegetables can be sold until the end of autumn and early winter. Now, the Yu family earns more than 200 taels a month just from selling vegetables! A lot of vegetables, after the season, other people's homes are already mossy, and they taste gluten and affect the taste. The Yu family's vegetables were not bothered by this.
Now, except for Yao's family, many families in the town who are not short of money buy their vegetables from Yu's family, and they all come to pick them up by themselves. The restaurant only serves Zhenxiu Restaurant. With Lingshishui, a cheat that shortens the growing season of vegetables, the Yu family's less than four acres of vegetable land can supply it!
In addition to the vegetable field, there is also a stewed vegetable business on the wharf. The weather is getting warmer, and I'm afraid the taste of the food will change overnight, Liu's stewed vegetables are made early in the morning, and then Xiao Lian will drive the donkey cart to the wharf to sell. There is also an income of two or three hundred cash a day, and an income of ten taels of silver a month. Don't underestimate the ten taels of silver, this is the annual income of ordinary people!
There is also the business of buying seafood. There is an endless stream of fishermen who come to Yu's house to sell seafood every day. Even if they cooperate with Yu Jiang, they are too busy to care about their head and tail. Sometimes, when Yu Lichun came for a walk, he would give him a hand when he saw that he was too busy.
The three-acre watermelon will be on the market soon, and it is still a big question whether we can free up manpower to sell it! However, Xiaocao already has a preliminary idea. Decided to be a wholesaler and give someone you know a chance to make money...
