Chapter 289: Rag Doll
However, he is tall, and this rag doll is made of fabric, and it is not difficult to carry it, and Smith and others have traveled from south to north, moving goods everywhere, and carrying these rag dolls is not a problem.
Looking at the empty warehouse, Mingzhu showed a smile on his face, this shipment is out, which means that the silver is shipped back.
There are more than 400 rag dolls in the warehouse, and Gu Mingzhu brought more than 200 from the village, which means that there are more than 100 left, and these more than 100 are for the storefront of the sister-in-law of the cloth shop, and there can't be a single rag doll in the store!
Smith and the others saw that there were more than a hundred, so they wanted to pack and transport them away, the sister-in-law of the cloth shop just wanted to make cash, and just wanted to agree, but Gu Ming disagreed, she couldn't let the sister-in-law of the cloth shop be empty,
This store is the façade of recruitment, and there are no rag dolls to place, which will invisibly flow away many potential customers.
After the last negotiation, there were more than fifty left in the store, and the rest were packed up by Smith and others, and finally settled the bill, and got a total of one thousand and twenty taels of silver, ten hundred silver tickets, and twenty taels of broken silver.
The two of them calculated the account, excluding the cost of labor and small decorations such as fabrics, and the net profit was eight hundred and thirty taels.
According to the previous agreement with the sister-in-law of the cloth shop, Gu Mingzhu got five hundred and eighty-one taels of silver, and the sister-in-law of the cloth shop got three hundred and nine taels of silver.
Holding three silver tickets of one hundred taels, the sister-in-law of the cloth shop was full of emotion in her heart, if there was no Gu Mingzhu, this silver would never be earned by her own ability, with this silver, she could build a big tile house and tell her son a good family business. She and her son will never again be looked down upon by the villagers.
All of this is due to Gu Mingzhu, so although it is her shop, she obeys Gu Mingzhu and is willing to be her helper.
Li Yanpin and his wife only felt that the whole day was in the clouds, and everything that happened today made them feel unreal, only knowing that Gu Mingzhu ran to the market town the next day to make money, and he did make money by making rag dolls, but he didn't expect to make money like this, and this change of hands was more than five hundred taels of silver. And those vegetables are sold.
This is when they saw their daughter earn so much money with their own eyes, and the shock of the white money to the two of them was quite large.
They don't know how much money their daughter has, and they don't want to take advantage of their daughter, after all, they only have this only daughter, and they only hope that she can live happily and contently.
They are also happy that their daughter has the ability, if it weren't for the daughter's ability, their family would still be worried about three meals a day.
Thinking of the five or six taels of silver that her daughter gave every month, as well as the firewood, rice, oil, salt, and pork that she usually brought back from the market. These are all daughters who are also filial to themselves, and daughters are willing to honor their parents, and they are also happy.
Just thinking about it, I think it's quite a nest.
The two of them are young and strong, but they are not as good as their daughters who can make money, and they still want their daughters to make money to support them. Gu Jinkang made up his mind that he must make good money, and he must not let his daughter be flattened.
Chu Jing looked at Gu Mingzhu, who was happily counting silver tickets, his deep eyes were full of stars, and he became more and more satisfied with the little wife he chose
Uncle Zhao drove the ox cart to deliver the goods, but he didn't expect Gu Mingzhu to do business with gentles, he thought that Gu Mingzhu's rag dolls were exquisite and beautiful, but they were just a toy, but he didn't expect that the gentlemen also took a fancy to this kind of flashy thing, and made a lot of money.
No matter how beautiful that rag doll is, it can't be eaten as a meal. In Uncle Zhao's heart, he would rather use money to buy food than waste money to buy that rag doll.
I really don't understand the minds of these gentiles, but he still admires Gu Mingzhu, and even makes money from gentiles.
With money in his hands, he didn't panic in his heart, and now that he had two stable sources of money, Gu Mingzhu was full of courage at this time, and his eyes were smiling like a crescent moon.
Saying goodbye to the sister-in-law of the cloth shop, Gu Mingzhu paid Uncle Zhao's fare, and cut a knife of meat for him to take back, Uncle Zhao took the fare, but he refused to take the knife, the two of them put it off for a long time, or Li Yan hired a couple to come out to persuade Uncle Zhao to accept it.
Uncle Zhao still has a greenhouse on the barren beach to make the final completion, and he doesn't have time to stay in the town, so he goes back first.
"Dad, mother" Do you say that we also want to add a carriage, this winter is coming soon, you will have to pull vegetables to the town every day in the future, you can't trouble Uncle Zhao every day! Gu Mingzhu didn't care about the car fare, he just thought that without a carriage, it would be inconvenient for Gu Jinkang to go to the market town later.
"If you don't buy a cart of ox or horse, if you want to buy it, buy a cart of ox carts! Ox carts can pull things, and pull things much more than horse-drawn carts,
If you want to pull more things, just make the board of the bullock cart longer, and the oxen can also plow the land. “
The land on the barren beach will be ploughed again next year, and if there are cattle, Gu Jinkang can do it all alone, if you don't need to plough the cattle, then a large area of barren beach, I don't know how long it will be ploughed? You can't ask someone to farm every day! Others cultivate that have their own careful and serious work.
As a veteran of planting crops, Gu Jinkang's requirements for cultivated land are very strict, he carefully inspected the land cultivated by those hired cultivators, some people are serious, the coulter ploughs the depth is moderate, and one plough is next to the plow, so that the cultivated soil is evenly and finely broken, and the seeds are sown so that they can take root and sprout, and the seedlings emerge evenly. Even transplanted seedlings are easy to survive. Best for growing things.
Some people don't want to contribute when they plough, they don't have the strength to help the plow, they become floating plows, the soil under the coulter is not deep, the ploughing is shallow, the coulter spacing is large, and they can only run over the land once, and the top looks like they have been cultivated again, but the soil below has not moved, so that even if the land is planted with crops, the root system of the crops can only be rooted in the topsoil, and it is easy to die.
Now that the price of vegetables is so high, Gu Jinkang has regarded the barren beach as a treasure land to make money, and he doesn't dare to be sloppy at all. At that moment, he decided to serve these treasures that could generate wealth by himself.
Gu Jinkang's words stunned Gu Mingzhu for a while, Gu Mingzhu didn't expect that cultivating the land would have to take so many twists and turns. In modern times, they are all mechanically cultivated land, and the depth of the coulter and rake knife is adjusted by experts, and it is enough to work directly in the field, and it can be done in dozens of minutes on an acre of land.
"Okay, then it's up to Dad, let's go buy an ox cart." Gu Mingzhu said just do it, turned around and walked towards the cattle and horse market, because the smell of this animal was a bit big, and he was afraid that the smell would spread to the street, and the cattle and horse market was built on the most remote street in the market town.
When Gu Mingzhu and the others walked to the cattle and horse market, a bad smell rushed into everyone's noses.
