The Lofty Fierce Consort

Chapter 56

Views:

Famous families and officials Xungui have more or less their own industries.

It is said that it does not compete with the people for profit, but have you ever seen a family who can maintain a wealthy life just by relying on their salary

Field properties, business houses, and clothing and jewelry stores where women's family members in the house earn some money, have a way to do big business, but no way to do small business.

Mrs. Shen was afraid that there were too many people and it would be difficult to manage. At the beginning, she asked the steward below to help her son pick someone who could manage it. There are not a few rich children who do business, but I have never seen one who wants to go into battle in person.

Liu Er is the person in charge.

In fact, at the beginning, when Liu Er was asked to choose, he was not too willing to be in charge of this.

In his early years, he worked as a servant in the Duke's Mansion, and there were not many masters in the mansion. He didn't have any way to go to the master, so he could only be a servant in the outer courtyard.

Later, when he got older, he couldn't get a good position, and when he got old, he released the mansion and returned to Zhuangzi.

There are many Zhuangzi under the name of the Duke of Zhenguo, and sons like Liu Er grew up here. After getting married and getting married, Liu Er is a good person, and he is also smart and capable. After decades, he has also been the head of Erzhuang on Zhuangzi. Everyone is respectful, and they have a good monthly salary every month, and they live a beautiful life.

Unexpectedly, the manager above said that Master Qi was going to make a business, and he was chosen to be the manager.

The family of the Duke of Zhenguo gave birth to a son, who doesn't know who Master Qi is, the master of the eight classics of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. On weekdays, Liu Er was eager to lean on it, but Master Qi is only ten years old, so what kind of business can he do

It doesn't matter if the young master is joking, he took off his errands and went there. If he was just joking, what would he do for him when he came back? The competition between family and children is also very fierce, because there are more monks and less porridge.

Liu Er tossed and turned all night, and the next day his mother said something.

"It's our honor for the masters to appreciate us. Back then, when your father left early, we orphans and widows pointed to Duke Zhenguo for dinner. Without the kindness of Duke Zhenguo, how could we raise you so big."

Liu Er didn't say anything. The next day, he packed two clothes and came to the yard.

Come together first, this is an empty shelf.

The young master never showed his face, and only let the people around him hand him a few 'documents' from time to time, and let him think about it himself. Because of these 'information', Liu Er also understood what the 'young master' wanted to do, what he should do, and then spread it out.

In fact, it is not difficult. The people responsible for setting up the stall already have the manpower. What he needs to do is to integrate the 'information' given by the young master and give them 'training'.

The word 'training' is mentioned in the data, generally it is to teach them how to sell the things they sell well, and there are some skills that must be mastered by barbecue.

Afterwards, they recruited craftsmen to customize trolleys and various tools, all kinds of procurement and recruitment of people who were responsible for 'logistics' to wash the meat skewers, including the 'secret recipe' that also needed to be deployed.

The 'young master' explained very clearly that the man in charge of the 'logistics' was chosen by him. First of all, the first person must be at ease, and then the 'secret recipe' should not be leaked.

In fact, there is no need for 'young master' to explain, Liu Er also knows not to leak.

'Secret recipes' are all very precious things, and if they are leaked out, it is not enough to kill everyone. Of course, compared to others, there is no need to worry about it. Even if he recruits people, he will be selected from the group of people who have children in the family of the Duke of Zhenguo, and even some people in the Zhuangzi where he is the head of the second Zhuangzi, the family members and even the deeds. It's all in the town's palace, who dares to leak it? !

Liu Er was in charge of dozens of people. He was not only responsible for daily purchases, but also for daily supervision of distributing materials to each booth. After closing the booth, he counted the money sold on the day. There were a lot of miscellaneous things.

But he is motivated, why

Because the 'young master' said that these 40 or 50 stalls not only made money for him, but also made money for Liu Er. The more they sold, the more his 'commission' was.

'Commission' is a new term, which Liu Er doesn't quite understand yet, but the general meaning is still clear.

For example, for every hawker who sells skewers, the skewers are sold for three cents, and I can make a commission of half a cent, and the remaining two and a half cents belong to the host. Don't look at the small amount of money, the business of this kebab seems to be inconspicuous, but the business is extremely hot. Which stall does not sell two or three thousand skewers a day, and it can earn several taels of silver a day. Not much, adding up to dozens of taels a month.

Seeing him blushing.

But he has nothing to be jealous of. The 'young master' said that for every 100 skewers sold, they will be given 10 cents for the 'logistics'. About three hundred taels of silver.

Of course, these commissions are not divided by him alone, and there are many others below. For example, those responsible for point calculation, such as the accountant responsible for bookkeeping and cashiers, and those responsible for slicing skewered meat, etc.

They don't have a monthly salary, and they don't care about food when they work. The 'young master' said that the more you work, the more you get, and issued a series of commission ratios.

To sum up, according to the current business, a steward like Liu Er can get about seventy or eighty taels of silver a month, while the accountant and a few small stewards are less likely to receive twenty or thirty taels a month. Wait. Then there are the chores below, which can be divided into six or seven taels every month.

A lot of money means a lot of responsibilities, and the 'young master' also explained that once he found out that he was cheating and cheating, he would use it as a shoddy person.

Driven by interests, he naturally does his best from top to bottom. Recently, the demand for mutton has increased, but Liu Er has been running for several days before finding a few suppliers of cheap meat with good quality. The women who were in charge of slicing and skewering meat were not lazy either, and they worked fast and well.

Because the 'young master' also said that the money raised will be shared among them. But if the errand is delayed, you need to recruit more workers. Can a sum of money for ten people be the same as that for eleven people

Not only are some of the women doing chores below unwilling, but Liu Er is also unwilling.

The various cognitions these days have not only refreshed Liu Er's vision, but also allowed him to understand that many behaviors of 'Young Master' seem absurd, but are actually very practical, and since then he has regarded 'Young Master's words' as a well-known saying.

Back then, Liu Er thought that the young master was a child, so he must be joking. Now he can't help but sigh, 'Young Master' is a genius!

***

At the same time, someone who was praised by Liu Er as a genius of Tianzong was 'dividing the spoils' in a very unimaginative manner.

"The first time the two of us have a small test, we naturally have to see real money and silver in order to experience the wonderful taste of success. Originally, I wanted someone to change the silver, but you definitely won't be able to take it back, so I changed the silver ticket, which is convenient. A little." Luo Huaiyuan patted the box in front of him, and said to Shen Qi with raised eyebrows.

Shen Qi was actually indifferent to the silver thing, because there was no shortage, of course, he was not as excited as Luo Huaiyuan. However, the first time he made a business, he seemed to be very successful, which also surprised him.

Especially since he didn't seem to do anything, he found all the people (or his mother found it), and then threw them all to Luo Xiaopang.

"Come on, one for you, one for me, one for you, one for me..."

Luo Huaiyuan muttered words while taking out a silver note from the box and handing it out. After sending Shen Qi one, he will definitely put one in front of him, with an irresistible smile on his fat face, so he can't see his teeth.

Following "You have one, I have one", Shen Qi gradually became a little dizzy. It wasn't how rare the 100 tael silver note was, but because he was dizzy.

Immediately afterwards, he was amazed.

How much is this, why hasn't it been posted for so long

In fact, let Luo Huaiyuan think about it. He originally wanted to exchange it for copper coins, and then piled it up into a bed. He slept on it for a few days and enjoyed himself. This dream has long existed. I think back in the modern era, his biggest dream was to buy a lottery ticket and win a big prize, and then all the prize money would be exchanged for one dollar coins, and he would roll hard on it.

It's a pity that the dream is full and the reality is skinny.

This dream could not come true in modern times, but it can come true now, but due to various aspects, he can only experience the joy of counting silver bills.

Yesterday, this month's dividends came over. Luo Huaiyuan counted them all night. Even if he knew the approximate amount, he had never seen such a large amount of money that made him excited.

"It's not much, it's not much. This month we made more than 10,000 taels of silver, and the fraction is still on the books. I asked Xiao Anzi to bring it back yesterday. We are each 5,000." Luo Huaiyuan waved his hands stinky. .

"One thousand taels?"

Shen Xiaoer, this bear boy, is not ignorant of numbers, no matter how indistinguishable the grains are. He knew what 10,000 taels represented. For example, he had heard from her mother that the entire township government would cost more than 10,000 taels of silver for a year. For example, his mother had a hairpin in the 'Treasure Square', which cost about a thousand taels. For example, the sword his father bought last time cost more than two thousand taels. For example, the bird that my grandfather bought last time cost more than five hundred taels...

In other words, with the money he earned this month, he could buy a sword for his father, a hairpin for his mother, a bird for his grandfather, and still honor his grandmother

In general, Shen Xiaoer is still a very filial person, at least he thought about a few elders for a long time, and he hasn't thought about himself for the time being.

"What? You think too little?"

Shen Qi stammered, "How come? There are so many..."

Luo Huaiyuan nodded in satisfaction, patted him on the shoulder, "Follow my brother, and I will give you some meat to eat later!"

At the back door of the Fourth Prince's Mansion, a 'little eunuch' with a strange behavior emerged.

He kept walking against the wall and walked a long way before getting into a carriage parked on the side of the street.

"Young master, you finally came out, Sixi almost went in to find you." A man who looked like a servant said with joy in his eyes.

Shen Qihun hummed reluctantly and said, "It's delayed for a while. Let's go, go to Shun'an Street."

Sixi thought that the young master was going to buy something, and didn't say anything, so he asked the driver to go to Shun'an Street.

Sanyuan saw a big bag bulging out of the young master's chest, but it was flat before he went in just now.

"Master, what are you stuffing here, it doesn't look good."

Anyone with a big bag stuffed in their chest won't look good!

Shen Qi glanced at his chest, "Something given by others."

Before the carriage reached Shun'an Street, he suddenly said again: "Forget it, go back!"

All the way back to the Duke's Mansion, Shen Qi hurriedly went to find his mother.

Mrs. Shen had just finished her work and was sitting at the table drinking tea when her son ran in in such a hurry.

"Mother, these are for you, if you want to buy something, buy it yourself!"

He really couldn't think of what to buy for the elders in the family. The elders always gave him gifts, and he had no experience in giving things. After leaving the back door of the Fourth Prince's Mansion, he was thinking, and he couldn't figure out why. Originally, he was going to buy a hairpin or something for his mother, but he ignored it, because her mother was very picky, and he really didn't know what she liked.

Shen Qi took out a large bag from his chest and put it on the table, it was wrapped in black cloth, and he couldn't see what was inside.

"By the way, not only you buy one, but you also buy one for your grandfather, grandmother, and father, and the money will come from here." Shen Qi patted the black bag, very proud.

Mrs. Shen put down the tea bowl in her hand, "You put silver here? You can buy it for me, your father, and your grandfather and grandmother. Where did you get the silver, is it enough?"

At the end, Mrs. Shen had already laughed.

"Sure enough!"

Second Mrs. Shen ignored her son and untied the black cloth. The first thing that caught her eye was a large mess of paper. This is the first impression. What a shrewd person Mrs. Shen is, she quickly realized that this is not ordinary paper, but a silver note.

Looking over it, the amount is not large, only one hundred taels.

One hundred taels is really not much, but there are so many.

Second Mrs. Shen glanced at her son and handled it with her hands.

She is in charge of the family's middle-income family all the year round, and the settlement is very fast, and she quickly put the messy banknotes into a stack one by one.

A total of fifty, five thousand taels.

"Where did you get so much silver?"

Mrs. Shen frowned, this is the first reaction of a parent, and the first thing to ask when seeing money of unknown origin. Shen Qi has a small treasury, but there is not much cash in it. Most of his assets are gold and silver given by his elders, and there are also silver notes, but they are not many. still know.

A ten-year-old hairy boy, where did he get so many banknotes!

The bear child heard 'so much', and also heard the surprise in the mother's tone. With a small chest, he waved his hand indifferently, "Didn't my son tell you that he wants to buy and sell? You have given me orders. This is the money I made."

This pretentious appearance was learned from Luo Huaiyuan, which was not something that arrogant children used to do.

Mrs. Shen's eyes flashed and she said with a smile: "Our family Qi'er will make money to honor his parents, grandparents and grandmothers!"

It's a compliment.

Shen Qi was a little embarrassed, and waved his hand shyly, "This is nothing, in the future, my son will honor you when he makes money."

After that, the man ran away. . .
