Chapter 50: Keep Fighting
Although this time he soon earned another thirty taels of silver, his savings were abundant, and the financial pressure was relieved. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
But this time, the rapid reduction of savings still made Meier realize the economic pressure again.
She felt that her economic strength was still not strong, and it was easy to empty so quickly, which still gave her a sense of crisis.
The process of accumulating wealth is difficult, but it is easy to use it.
Mei'er has been very optimistic during this time, and she feels that she can earn thirty taels a month in Xiangyunju, which is already very good. But the purchase of the house and the decoration are estimated to be at least fifty taels of silver, and most of them are lost, and Mei'er is a little distressed.
She was used to having some savings, and she was a little panicked when she had thirty taels left.
Although she earns more every month by designing jewelry patterns, Mei'er can only say that she tries her best to design, and she does not dare to guarantee that her designs meet the requirements and the designs are successful.
Mei'er was thinking there, it is indeed necessary to find some stable ways or businesses to make money, even if the money is not much, but as long as you can make some money stably and be able to operate for a long time.
Mei'er looked at her body now, and her daily pocket flowers were less than 1,500 wen, and there were sixty taels of savings, so she tried not to move.
Mei'er said to herself, continue to struggle!
Mei'er returned home, and as soon as she went back, she pulled Le Yi aside to talk.
Mei'er said directly: "Mother, this is ten taels of silver, you can use it to decorate the house first, and if it's not enough, you can take it with me." ”
Le Yi said: "I haven't started to settle recently, I'll tell you when I need to." ”
Mei'er said: "You can keep it, lest I be too busy to come back." ”
Le Yi had no choice but to stay.
Mei'er saw that there was still needlework on the table.
She said, "Mother, why are you still doing needlework?" Don't spoil your eyes. ”
Le Yi said: "It doesn't take much effort, how much can you earn." ”
Mei'er said: "Except for the decoration of the house, you have nothing to rest and rest, just leave the matter of making money to me." ”
Le Yi said: "It's not easy for you to make money, not to mention that this needlework is what I'm used to." It was also a matter of time to set up the house. Mei'er, I was about to discuss with you, and when we moved in, I would find some work, or do something, and have some income. ”
Mei'er said: "Mother, when we move to the new house, you can just take care of the family's affairs, and I will think about the livelihood problem." You just have to take care of the inner house, and let your daughter honor you. ”
Le Yi smiled: "Good daughter! ”
She added: "I'm idle, I'm idle, and I'll just find something I can do to make some money." ”
Mei'er sighed, her mother was finally affected by her previous poverty, and she was willing to do something to supplement the family, or let her go. At most, I can help my mother to make a living, which is not very tiring and can make some money. What's more, when the time comes to move to the new house, there will be a lot of housework that needs to be taken care of, and it would be good if my mother could be busy.
Mei'er thought for a while, and first said her plan for a while ago: "Mother, I originally wanted to wait for us to move in, there are still empty rooms in the house anyway, let's clean up a little, and rent it to people nearby, especially the students of the academy, to collect some rent, which is enough for you and Xiaobao to spend daily." ”
Le Yi heard Mei'er say this, and said: "It's naturally good to rent out the empty room, then when we clean up the house now, we have to plan and clean up the room that is ready to be rented." ”
Le Yi is very happy, she often worries about her family's livelihood, and now that she has a ready-made way to make money, she would rather suffer herself than do it. Because of the days when there was no way to make money before, she was afraid. As long as she can make money, no matter how much, she is willing to do it. Her husband went north to join the army, Xiaobao was still young, and Le Yi didn't want to put all the burden on her daughter.
Mei'er said, "Yes, I have to clean up the room now." I just thought that I would have to wait for the house to be cleaned up and rent it out when I had spare space, but I didn't expect to have to clean up these empty rooms, but my mother was thoughtful. ”
"Since we are going to rent out the empty rooms, we should simply try to integrate these rooms together, and when the house is not cleaned up, we can clean it up when the time comes, so that the tenants can move in," Le Yi said. ”
Mei'er said: "Exactly, it's better to clean up one or two yards separately for rent." ”
Le Yi said: "Well, that's a good idea. When the time comes, we can open another door, and we don't have to go out from the courtyard where we live. ”
Mei'er nodded.
In fact, Mei'er attaches great importance to a lot of small profits and quick turnover, and she admires Tao Zhugong's financial management ideas. Fan Li advocates small profits but quick turnover, not profiteering. Mei'er agrees with Tao Zhugong's point of view. Some businesses may seem to be unprofitable, but they can be operated in the long run, and they are also a business that makes a living in the long run. For the future, Meier wants to find some businesses that can be operated for a long time, not seeking to be rich and expensive, but only to have no worries about food and clothing, and a little surplus. It's a pity that I only have 60 taels of capital now, which is less than the top and more than the bottom. Mei'er wanted to wait for more savings before considering it. It's still the stage of accumulating principal, and you can't do so much. And there are some things that you may not be able to do alone, you still have to have a helper.
The mother and daughter spoke again.
There was a knock on the door.
Le Yi went out to take a look and led people in.
It turned out that his cousin Wang Yuan came.
Wang Yuan said: "This is the fresh vegetables that my father asked me to send, where should I put them?" ”
Le Yi saw that Wang Yuan directly brought all the dishes in, and hurriedly said, "Good boy, you can put it down." I'll just take it. ”
Wang Yuan had already brought the dishes in and put them in the place where Le Yi said.
Mei'er saw that Wang Yuan was very stable in appearance, spoke very measured, and was very down-to-earth and diligent.
Mei'er also hurried over to help.
Wang Yuan said: "I don't need my sister to touch her hands, I'll put it away." ”
He asked Mei'er and Le Yi to be next to him and said that the place was complete, and he put the vegetables he brought in neatly.
Mei'er poured Wang Yuan a glass of water, and Le Yi said, "Take a rest and go again." ”
Wang Yuan took the glass of water and drank it all.
Mei'er really didn't know much about her cousin's situation now, so she asked, "Cousin, what do you do now?" ”
Wang Yuan said: "My father asked me to follow him now to learn bookkeeping or something, and get started." ”
When Mei'er heard this, her eyes lit up: "Do you know how to keep accounts?" ”
Wang Yuan said: "I learned a little from my father. ”
Mei'er said: "Not bad, yes, study hard." ”
Wang Yuan stayed for a while and left.
Mei'er thought that she was feeling that she needed an arm, so Wang Yuan came. He is more down-to-earth and steady, and he can settle accounts, so he is the right person. Mei'er thought that she would have more contact with her cousin in the future to enhance her understanding.
