Making money is not an easy task.

Old Madam Gui knew this too well.

If she had a good way to make money, she would have taken the feed when she was young, instead of sitting and eating all day long.

The Cao family is the same, she is a good housekeeper, but she can't think of a way to make money.

Speaking of which, it's just four words, open source and reduce expenditure, and you can grit your teeth and open source ......

I'm most afraid that one won't open well, and it's not gold and silver that will come, but mud.

If you don't count your face, your home is gone.

The Ding'an Hou Mansion has a lesson from the past, how can the Cao family have the courage to make a fool of themselves?

If the family background is thicker and there is surplus money in hand, then you can still think about giving birth to some tricks, and if you lose, you will lose, so as not to delay the prosperity of the house.

But the Wen family can't.

Once the business goes wrong, the old and young man will just eat steamed buns secretly, and Wen Zifu and Wen Zilan can't even get money for daily entertainment in the officialdom.

"The situation at home, our own family knows best," Cao's smile sneered, "This year, your second uncle was promoted, added some silver, and Ebony competed for anger, and became a five-grade official, looking open-source, in fact, the family expenses are really a lot." ”

It's not that you slap your swollen face and become fat, but that you have to maintain basic decency.

You can't make people laugh because you are poor because the name of the Hou Mansion has not been withdrawn, right?

What's more, the money of the court officials was not rich.

If a poor scholar is an honest official, he may have worked hard all his life, and he still clangs when he returns to his hometown.

Most of them want to do some business and rely on business to make a living.

It's a pity that the Zhuangzi and shops that are still left in the Ding'an Hou Mansion can make some money, enough to accumulate a little after chewing every year, and it will be difficult to have more.

Cao glanced at Old Madam Gui.

Sister Yan is a governor, and the family will not hide these situations from her.

But there are a few words, Mrs. Gui just said to the Cao family, but she didn't mean to open her mouth at this time.

Cao knew that Old Madam Gui had no face to mention.

The house has to save a dowry for the sisters.

When Wen Yuan got married, there was really no way, and besides, the Ruan family was not a well-known public uncle's mansion, and the Ding'an Hou Mansion was less, and it could be said that it was all right.

Rao is like this, Sister Kite is still disliked by the Ruan family because of the dowry.

Sister Yan is a high marriage.

is nominally the Huo family, but in fact it is the prince, will the emperor and Concubine Huo not be able to afford a dowry?

No way!

It's just that they can't get the dowry from the Ding'an Hou Mansion!

If you want to learn to ride a horse today, just ask the fourth prince to borrow a horse, and one day perform six salutes, can you still open your mouth to borrow a dowry?

Sister Yan dared to open this mouth, and Mrs. Gui didn't have the face to pass through this hand.

This question appeared early in the morning, but Old Madam Gui didn't think about it.

After all, it's not only useless to think about it, but also to be so anxious that you can't sleep.

Pure loss!

Moreover, it was the Cao family who took care of it, and it was quite good, and the old lady didn't want to intervene and interrupt Cao's train of thought.

Therefore, these days, the old lady is patient, wanting to see if the Cao family can find a new way to make money in the capital after they enter Beijing.

But today, when Wen Yan said this, Mrs. Gui couldn't wait, she had to talk to the Cao family.

Helplessly, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law stared at each other for half an hour, and they were really uninspired.

Old Madam Gui pressed her eyebrows.

Cao Shi saw it in his eyes, so he said to Wen Yan: "After being in Beijing for so many months, in fact, I am still unfamiliar with life, and I haven't even found a way to do business.

To tell you the truth, the old lady went back to the Wu'an Hou Mansion and met a group of old sisters, and she also thought about asking others to mention something to see if there was a way to get rich together.

Unfortunately, that road doesn't work, so I have to give up.

Sister Yan'er, we want capital, we don't have much capital, we want a way, and we don't have a way, and we don't dare to let go of our investment, we just want to make money and not lose money......"

Speaking of this, Cao himself laughed, and smiled embarrassedly.

The world will not drop pies.

Cao sighed: "Uncle also knows that this is difficult for a strong man......"

Wen Yan propped his chin and rolled his gaze on Cao and Old Madam Gui.

She was suddenly a little naughty, and wanted to tease Mrs. Gui, saying that she would ask Huo Yixiao to borrow capital and find a way, but in the end she still didn't make this joke.

Old Mrs. Gui is old, and it is not easy.

was really amused by her, and it really opened her eyes until dawn all night.

The joke was gone, but Wen Yan's eyes were still bent into crescent moon with laughter.

Cao Shi looked at her expression and asked tentatively: "What is the way for Sister Yan to make money?" ”

"It's not difficult to make a profit," Wen Yan said, "It's not difficult to be difficult." ”

Cao's eyes widened, and even Old Lady Gui couldn't care about pressing her eyebrows, her eyes were burning, waiting for Wen Yan to continue.

Wen Yan said: "The method is not in me, it is in the second sister and the fourth sister." ”

At this time, Cao Shi was very surprised: "Sister Hui and Sister Jing? What can the two of them do? ”

It's not that she can't see the shining points in her daughter when she is a mother, the two girls have advantages and strengths, but none of them are golden, shiny, and can make money!

Wen Yan explained: "The fourth sister is good at painting, the second sister is excellent at making clothes, grandmother and uncle have seen the official uniforms they made for Ebony, right?" ”

Cao and Old Madam Gui looked at each other and didn't understand it for a while.

Who will be short of tailors?

Moreover, the girl in the Ding'an Hou Mansion is so depressed that she makes money by being a tailor, and it is strange to say it.

"It's not for people," Wen Yan said with a smile, "It's for cats, dogs, and rabbits!"

The family prepared not only official uniforms for Ebony, but also a set of riding clothes.

Princess Cheng'an liked it very much when she heard it before, and she wanted to make a few for the white jade group.

Grandmother, uncle, you think, no matter what it is, the second sister and the fourth sister can make it, draw a good picture according to the guest's mind, the guest prepares the fabric, and the second sister will make it.

A suit of clothes and a dozen or twenty taels of silver is not a guarantee of making money or losing money. ”

Old Madam Gui and Cao's eyes widened.

Ten or twenty taels!

Sister Yan really dares to open her mouth!

People who can make clothes for cats, dogs, and rabbits, many families can afford to raise embroidery tailors, and no matter how bad they are, they don't need to go to the tailor shop outside to ask for one.

Wen Yan saw the doubts of the two, and said: "Then they will go to find someone else, no matter how good the others are, is it the same person as the clothes of the Wupin captain?" Is it the princess's baby white jade group that is a one-person style and pattern? The princess said that whoever is good, that is who is good, in this place in the capital, the most important thing is the rush for good things. ”

At the end of the sentence, Mrs. Gui listened to it at once.

Capital.

Lin'an used to be the capital.

In noble families, men compare the future, women compare jewelry and clothes, and the bright is better than the dark.

The nobles praised the good ones, but they couldn't catch up with the horses outside.

The princess will admit that Sister Hui and Sister Jing have done it, and others will follow suit!
