Qi Shan heard on the side that it would cost two hundred catties of charcoal in seven days, that is...... Two taels and four hundred wen, a family can earn one or two or two hundred wen, and that month is ...... A lot of money.

Qi Shan is now very good at the price arithmetic of charcoal, of course, there are still limitations, but it does not prevent him from knowing a rough idea.

"Shopkeeper Yan, do you want to transport some charcoal back today?" Qi Jiuli had just seen a donkey cart at the door, and he thought that Yan Chengtao also had this plan.

"Now you have charcoal at home? That couldn't be better. Yan Chengtao was very happy, "Then I'll transport two hundred catties over first, this is this month's deposit." ”

Yan Chengtao took out an ingot of five taels of silver and pushed it in front of Qi Shan.

"I'll go and prepare now." Qishan confiscated the silver and went to carry the charcoal first, and the prepared ones at home were all packed in baskets, as long as they were covered with straw to cover up and prevent moisture.

"Shopkeeper Yan, you can't weigh it at home, you bring it first, there must be two hundred catties in five baskets." Qi Shan carried the bamboo basket to the donkey cart and said, "Next time on the twelfth day, we will send it to the Autumn Flavor Restaurant." ”

Yan Chengtao nodded, "Okay, I'll let someone go back and keep accounts, and then let us take a look at Jiuli, we can't be wrong." ”

"Shopkeeper Yan does things, what the kid believes, where do you need to see." Qi Jiuli said with trust on his face.

"You're still too young." Although Yan Chengtao said this, his face was soft and smiling, "When the time comes to look at the accounts, I will tell you how to keep the accounts." ”

Qi Jiuli was taken aback, Yan Chengtao's words were a little meaningful, this was the importance of himself, this intention made Qi Jiuli a little moved, and his face was also brought out, "Thank you Shopkeeper Yan." ”

After sending the people away, Qi Shan and Qi Jiuli entered the house, looking at the big silver ingots on the table full of joy.

Qi Shan knew where Chi Lingmiao put the silver money, and found two halves and handed it to Qi Jiuli, "In the future, we will divide half of the silver money we get, and the charcoal will also be out together." ”

"Hmm." Qi Jiuli nodded, "Uncle, Eighth Cousin is coming back soon." ”

Qi Jiuli counted the days, he should have come back a long time ago.

"It's good to be back late." Qi Shanle said, "When I took the Qizhu exam, I didn't get home until the sixth day of the first month of March, and I could know the results on February 267, but I had to discuss with each other if I passed." ”

"Then I inquired about the government exam, and the exam was going to be taken in mid-April, and it was also in the county seat, Huaijin County, but the place seemed to be different, so it always took a few days to get home."

"It seems that your eighth cousin has passed the county test." Qi Shan's face was full of relief, "Qizhu has made a lot of efforts, your eighth cousin used to be unable to sit still, but now he has grown a lot." ”

"That's great, when the college exam takes place in June, the eighth cousin can go with my brother, and the two of them will have company together, and they can take care of each other on the road." Qi Jiuli said happily.

"It would be great if it could be like that." Qi Shan said with a smile, "But your eighth cousin is not as smart as Qizhu, he can be a child this time, it is already a great joy, if he can go through the hospital examination with him, even if he does not win this time, he will have a greater hope in the future." ”

Qi Jiuli couldn't talk anymore, so he hurriedly changed the topic, "Uncle, go back to the town next time to deliver charcoal, take ours, the room is almost unable to put it down." ”

"Okay, okay." Qi Shan nodded happily.

"What's more, this time when my brother is on vacation, we want to go to the town to see the house." Qi Jiuli said, "Uncle help us go and have a look." ”

"Okay, Uncle will help you pay off the bargain together." Qishan Road is good.

"Uncle, I'll go home first." Qi Jiuli waved his hand, and when he got home, he went directly into the house where he lived.

Remove the wooden box and start taking inventory.

Eighty taels of silver tickets, twenty taels of silver ingots, and a lot of scattered silver horns and copper coins.

Scattered, although it took some, but what I earned before, as well as the two taels they gave my grandfather, plus the two taels and halves they just got, there were nearly ten taels in total, Qi Jiuli took five taels, and put the rest away.

The house in the town, the most expensive can not exceed one hundred and fifty taels, and the remaining loose money is reserved at home, and Qi Qizhu went to Fucheng to catch the exam, depending on the charcoal yield of the remaining two months.

Send 200 catties every seven days, your own family accounts for half, four trips a month, your own family can sell 400 catties, the income is 42800 Wen, and you can have nearly 10 taels in more than two months.

Then the house is bought and sold smoothly, the rental goes smoothly, the deposit is collected, and there can be some in two months.

At that time, one hundred and eighty Wen will be left at home, and the rest will be brought to Qi Qizhu, which is enough.

Qi Jiuli had an idea in her heart, when Qi Qizhu Mansion City was rushing for the exam, she also wanted to go with her, the purpose was to sell spices.

However, it is also possible that the city already has a house, Qi Jiuli is a little hesitant when he thinks of this, not to mention that it is not easy to meet a good buyer like Qiuwei Restaurant, the bigger the place, the more difficult it is to negotiate, let's take a look.

Qi Jiuli received the silver ticket and silver into the purse, and then sewed the purse into the inner pocket of the jacket, which was made by Qi Shixiang two days ago.

Use a needle and thread to sew the purse and the inner bag, no matter how you move, it is impossible to fall, Qi Jiuli is close to his body, more secure, and the scattered ones are received in the original place and put them again.

In Jinshui Town, Yan Chengtao got off the donkey cart and asked Guizi to go back to Qiuwei Restaurant first, and he went to Xiangyun Tea House.

"Shopkeeper Yan, please go upstairs."

Yan Chengtao went to the private room on the second floor of the tea house, and the young man not only gave him refreshments, but also pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Yan Chengtao thought about it for a while, wrote down the situation of Qiuwei Restaurant one by one, and mentioned Qi Jiuli, said that he valued him, praised his arithmetic talent, and weakly asked about the account Mr. Gu Lao was about to retire in his old age, and the account after Qiuwei Restaurant.

After writing it all, Yan Chengtao read it twice, put the letter in the envelope, and wrote the words "Mama Qiu personally opened".

After Yan Chengtao finished writing, he asked the young man from the tea house to send it to Qiu's house, and gave him a few copper plates, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and began to drink tea and eat refreshments, well, it is better for his own chef's skills.

The young man was already familiar with the way, went directly to the backyard of Qiu's house, handed the letter to Mama Qiu in person, and hurriedly returned to the tea house, and then waited for Yan Chengtao, and finally got the remaining four pastries on the plate as he wished.

Every time Yan Chengtao comes, there is such a beauty difference, and the young man has been looking forward to it.

Qiu House.

Mama Qiu accepted the letter and went to the main house where Qiu Lianfang's house was located, and waited for Qiu Lianfang to coax the child before respectfully handing over the letter, "Madam, it's a letter from the shopkeeper Yan." ”

The envelope will write the word Mama Qiu, only the people in Qiu Lianfang, and the Qiu Mansion all call her Steward Qiu.

As for the fonts of several shopkeepers, Mama Qiu can already recognize them at a glance, so at a glance, you can know that it is Yan Chengtao's.

"Autumn Flavor Restaurant has been doing a lot of business recently, and I should explain why." Qiu Lianfang smiled and said.
