Chapter 99: Rapid opening
Next, Jia Rui settled accounts with Miaoyu and Huiyuan Shitai.
What investment, cost, profit, labor, site, inventory, consumption, turnover, etc., a lot of new terms, the two of them were confused and unconscious.
As for where these new terms came from, the two didn't ask.
In fact, he was not afraid to ask, Jia Rui was already ready, and he would be done with a push on Wenchang Xingjun.
They can't go to heaven to verify it anyway.
In the end, the profit was twelve taels of silver per day. The two sides were divided into fifty and fifty, and each got six taels of silver, about 1,800 taels of silver a year.
In fact, the profit level may be higher, but Jia Rui is afraid that they will be suspicious, so he deliberately says less.
Although this income is more or less, it depends on whom.
At the current price level, the annual living expenses of a family of four or five are about 20 taels of silver, or 1,800 taels of silver, which is already a large amount of income.
From the perspective of the business of making steamed bread, it is already a large-scale steamed bread factory to have this income.
But for Miaoyu, a little rich woman, 1,800 taels of silver may not really be in her eyes.
Fortunately, she is only for experience, and a little less money doesn't seem to be a big problem.
After settling the account, Miaoyu took Jia Rui to the outside of Shuiyue Temple to see the venue.
"These houses are, thirty-two houses in all. If it's not enough, I can pay for more. β
In the end, she is a little rich woman, and she is rushing to speak.
"No, that's enough."
Jia Rui began to look at the houses one by one and plan in his mind.
"This room can be used as a storeroom for stacking white noodles."
"This room can be used as an operation room, and the east part against the wall can be used to make noodles."
"What is an operation room?"
Miaoyu didn't understand.
"It's processing, oh, it's where steamed buns are made."
Forget it, don't tell her that much detail. She didn't understand it if she said too much.
After looking at the house, go and check the well.
Water source is a very important factor, and water is needed for noodles, steamed buns, workers' lives, and sanitation and cleaning.
Not only is the amount of water consumed, but the quality of the water must also be good.
The well is not bad and able to meet the demand. It's just that you need to get water out of the well.
This is also the only way to go without running water and submersible pumps.
Although the house is ready-made, there are many places that need to be renovated.
The main problem is sanitation.
Doors, windows, ceilings, walls, floors, etc., had to be renovated, even if they did not meet the strict hygiene standards of the previous life.
Now there is no cement and tile floor, it is all ground. There is also a lot of water in the place where the steamed bread is made, and the ground is muddy, and it is all mud when you walk, how can you eat this steamed bread?
At the very least, it must be paved with red bricks, green bricks, or stone slabs.
It's winter now, and we have to think about heating.
In addition to the need for heating for workers' work, the dough also needs the right temperature.
The temperature is too low, and the noodles are unwilling to ferment, delaying production.
Although Jia Rui didn't want to say it, there were still a lot of things to say.
"Just say how much money you need me to pay, I can't remember so many things. Long-winded to death. β
Miaoyu got impatient.
"One thousand two hundred taels of silver, and the rest will be used as working capital."
"What is liquidity?"
Alas, I don't understand anything, what a whole thing.
"It was used to buy flour, firewood, and wages for the craftsmen."
"Do you still need to be paid?"
It's really the true character of the feudal landlord class and the exploiting class, you think they are all your slaves, and they work for you for nothing.
"Naturally, you have to pay your salary, otherwise people will work for you for nothing?"
"You don't understand what I mean, I mean go to the Kouma Market and buy some people back."
Buy as soon as you open your mouth, you're a human trafficker.
"It's not cost-effective to buy it, if you don't do this business in the future, what's the use of keeping so many people?"
"Wouldn't it be okay to sell it again?"
The difference in the times, this generation gap is too big.
You said you were a pretty little girl, why are you more ruthless than the landlord's wife.
"There are people in the nearby farms, and there are many displaced people in the city, so you can just hire them."
"The most important thing is that we hire people, and if we do a good job, we can stay. If you don't do a good job, you can fire them at any time and hire someone else. β
"If you buy people and don't do a good job, can you still buy and sell people every day?"
Livestock traders can't be so casual.
"What you said also makes sense, then listen to you, why didn't you say it earlier?"
Okay, good, Aunt Miaoyu, it's all my fault.
"It's winter, but the earth hasn't frozen. There is still time for the work of the masonry bricklayers, such as building pots and stoves, building fire walls, and laying the floor. β
"But you have to hurry, wait for another half a month, the earth is frozen, and you can't move the soil, so you have to wait for the spring of next year to start construction."
"Then what are you waiting for, I'll go back and get you a silver ticket. You just go to Zhang Luo. Anyway, it's your outside the Lord, and my Lord is ......, ah, no, no, don't get me wrong, I don't mean that, you don't want toads to want to eat swan meat. β
You dead girl, who gave you confidence? I'm going to take a fancy to you? I'd rather marry a maid as a wife than marry you, a living ancestor, to go home and coax and make offerings.
"Thank you, girl, don't look down on me, I don't mean that, go back and get the money, I'll go to the city to find a craftsman, and I'll start work tomorrow."
What the? Do you dare to look down on this girl? This girl said a few more words to you, all to give you face, and she dared to look down on me?
Villain, villain, scumbag, scumbag.
Miaoyu went back and quickly took 1,200 taels of silver tickets.
"I'll leave it all to you."
"You can't leave it all to me, you should ask for instructions, you still have to ask for instructions. What should be reported, it is still necessary to report. β
"Well, that's pretty much it. By the way, why don't you leave, hurry up and go to Zhang Luo. β
Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go, it's not okay to go.
How did I get such a nervous disorder?
Oh my God, open your eyes. You can't just make a click and thunder and ...... this damn girl.
Forget it, it's just a spoiled little girl, what do I have to do with her.
Business partner, partner, I put up with it.
Soon back in the city, Jia Rui and Wang San went to Chongwenmen and found a tooth shop that specialized in introducing craftsmen.
The people of the tooth shop quickly found a craftsman, so they returned to Shuiyue Temple together to check the site.
Jia Rui said his requirements, negotiated the price, paid the fixed money, and agreed to start construction tomorrow and complete it within ten days.
The craftsman left, Wang San went to Miaoyu to get paper and pencils, and Jia Rui made a list of various materials that needed to be purchased.
"Young master, you have a lot of things to do in a day, can you take care of the business here? Isn't it time to find a helper? β
Jia Rui was right when he thought about it.
At the beginning, you need to plan for yourself, and when you are on the right track in the future and enter normal operation, you can't waste time on these trivial matters.
The profit of two thousand taels of silver a year is not worth guarding this stall every day.
"Wang San, you can do it, now you can even see this. Do you have the right people in your hands? β
"There really is one."
"Who? You bring him to me. β
"Don't you see it every day?"
"You can see it every day? You mean yourself? β
"Yes, didn't the young master say that she doesn't want to be an aunt's maid, she is not a good maid. A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. β
"You told us to learn from you, and it was all ours when we learned it. I've been secretly learning from you every day, and now I can do the math. β
"The young master is doing big things, and I'll do this kind of small things."
"Do you think you can do a good job?"
"The young master shows me the way, and I can do it well."
Also, since following me, Wang San has indeed made rapid progress. Leave this matter to him, and he is really the right person.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you. However, Miss Miaoyu is very difficult to entangle, you have to be careful. β
"Young master, Miss Miaoyu is a cold-mouthed and hot-hearted person, with a knife mouth and a tofu heart, you have to follow the donkey when dealing with her. As long as you talk to her more flattering words and make her happy, you can do things. β
Jia Rui couldn't help but be stunned.
The experience I just summed up today, it turns out that Wang San has known it for a long time.
The masses are the real heroes, and we, ourselves, are often naΓ―ve and ridiculous.
