Chapter 106 Cooperation
"Do you already have a goal?" Sun Chen raised his eyebrows, the children of the family themselves did not come forward, and there should be many people who secretly cooperated with others to do business, otherwise how could they maintain their luxurious life with the fixed monthly money?
It was also Sun Chen's frequent contact with Liu Mingxuan during this period of time that he knew that people like them, except for those in power, don't have to worry about anything when spending money, and other people, including the hostess, have a fixed limit, that is, monthly money. After spending his share and wanting to have it again, he has to wait for the next month to pay the monthly money again or coax the person in power to be happy, and reward him for the money he can have.
She usually makes some balm for herself, and she also makes rouge gouache. However, she can only provide you with the formula, and you have to do the rest yourself, including the location and decoration of the store, she will not ask, you can make all the decisions. Of course, when the store opens, she won't go there to help. ”
"So, Ling Mei just provided me with a few formulas, so I could sit and wait for me to open the store, and then stay at home as a shopkeeper, just waiting to reach out and get the money?" Sun Chen was surprised, if this was really the case, it would be too easy for her to make money and spend it, right?
"Of course, not only that, but she also saved about a thousand taels of silver in private, and this time she will take it all out for you to use, and she only accounts for fifty percent of your shares, and she will not hold you accountable if she loses it, how about it?" Liu Mingxuan couldn't help but laugh out loud when he looked at Sun Chen's bitter look, originally his sister asked her to open a small shop for her, but there were too many things for her during this time, and the three mothers and sons in the county had been dying, so she had to do something, give them a wake-up call and let them know who they are.
"Even if you want to make money, you can't bully people like this......" Sun Chen still wanted to say something, but when he heard Liu Mingxuan's conditions, he took out a thousand taels of silver to join the gang, provided the formula, and then shook his hand and let himself toss, it seems that this deal is not a loss? Uh, well, I agree. ”
Regarding Sun Chen's behavior when he saw the money, Liu Mingxuan was obviously expected, "It just so happens that the formula is placed here with me, you take it back first and ponder it to see how you should get it." ”
He took out a piece of rice paper full of hairpins from his arms, unfolded it and handed it to Sun Chen, "The recipes on it are all figured out by herself, but I look at the effect is not bad." ”
"Of course, I produced it myself, how can I rest assured that I will hand it over to others." Sun Chen reached out and took the formula, folded it and put it in his arms. "However, the manpower aspect is a big problem."
The people around me who can be trusted, except for the second girl, the master, and fennel, there is only the Da Zhuang family. But they were a little too busy with their own affairs, how could they still find time to help Sun Chen do this? Sun Chen thought that even if he was reluctant to let go of the merchant flat burden, he couldn't go any further, and after he went back, he asked Uncle Zhu to see if he was willing to continue. I have more important things to do, I am willing to give up, and I can only get if I give up.
"How many people do you need?"
"At least four or five!" There are two people who process rouge gouache, and at least two or three people need to sell it in the store. "At least, at least, there must be two people who will not reveal the recipe and are ingenious when they die."
Sun Chen felt that selling rouge gouache would definitely make money, no matter what era it was, a woman's money was the best to make. Fear of old age and ugliness is the nature of every woman, and it has nothing to do with the rich and poor. Especially now that three wives and four concubines are very common, the women in the courtyard of the deep house retain the favor of men in order to become beautiful, but they can do anything you can't think of.
Therefore, if Miss Qinfu's formula is really good, it must be firmly grasped in her own hands, but with their current conditions, it is very unrealistic to make it completely by themselves.
"Okay, I'll arrange a time for you to meet Ya Po as soon as possible, and it's up to you to decide what kind of person to buy at that time." Liu Mingxuan clapped.
"Hmm." Sun Chen nodded and agreed to his arrangement. In this era, the person who can keep the secret the most is the person who has the deed of sale in your hands.
……
There are a lot of people waiting to be bought, tall, short, fat and thin, men, women and children. Their eyes were either afraid, confused, or indifferent, which made Sun Chen feel very depressed in his heart. But he clearly knows that none of this can be easily changed or redeemed by himself.
Watching them follow the command of Ya Po, they stepped forward one by one to introduce themselves to Liu Mingxuan and Sun Chen, including their age, specialties, and whether they have any relatives alive, this situation suddenly made Sun Chen feel that they were like those cattle waiting to be sold in the cattle and horse market at this moment, cruel and sad.
Sun Chen chose one of the four families. Shen Bo, a tall and thin man in his thirties, and his wife Niu, who is also tall and thin, took their eleven or twelve-year-old son Shen Yawei, and Shen Nan, a thin old man in his fifties and sixties, the price was extremely cheap, and it only cost Sun Chen a hundred taels of silver in total. Among them, Shen Bo is priced at forty-five taels, Niu's is priced at twenty-five taels, and Shen Yawei and Shen Nan's grandson are only thirty taels together.
The reason why they were chosen was not only because Shen Bo said that he had been the shopkeeper of a restaurant in his hometown before, and his wife had also made tofu and sold it at home, and Sun Chen found that despite the same ragged clothes, the spirit of this family was the best among them, at least it did not make Sun Chen feel depressed.
Ya Po told them that the family had fled from the drought-stricken Luxian County a few years ago. Both husband and wife are considered to have some craftsmanship, and the reason why they have not sold it now is because no one wants to buy the young son and the old father, but they want the family to be able to sell to the same place.
However, Sun Chen estimated that the reason why they were willing to leave their homeland and sell themselves into slavery would definitely not be just because of the drought in their hometown. You must know that the Apocalypse Dynasty has a series of relief measures for the farmers under its rule who have reduced their field yields due to natural disasters. As long as they go to their county government to report and inform the other party that they are indeed hungry due to the famine, the county government will naturally send someone to investigate and verify, and if the situation is true, they will be eligible to receive a life-saving food set by the imperial court for the minimum temperature and satiety.
When Sun Chen heard people mention this rescue policy, he was shocked, and said that he didn't know who was so powerful, and the terms formulated would be so humane, and he even thought that he would have a chance to go and see if the other party would be his 'fellow countryman'.
"In the future, a few of them will be handed over to you, you can make arrangements for it!" Liu Mingxuan casually stuffed their deed of sale into Sun Chen's arms, "I still have some things to do, so I have to leave first." ”
