Chapter 52 The Little Wife of the Landlord's Family 17
The Lin family is also a famous family in the local area, but one thing is that the ceremony is generally held before the marriage, and the people who marry before the marriage in the local area rarely hold the ceremony in the husband's house, and even if there is, it will not be held with such fanfare.
can only say that the Lin family loves their daughter, and the Zhou family is also a generous mother-in-law.
The ceremony was very lively, and at night, it was clear that they had been in bed for more than a year, but today they both felt extremely uncomfortable.
The room was newly decorated, and it was all bright red, and in such a warm color, both of them were a little restrained, and Zhou Jinan was even a little unfamiliar.
Not strangers, and unfamiliar with what will happen next.
Zhou Jinan thought that he had taken the wrong book of his classmate, and it turned out to be a fire avoidance diagram wrapped in the outer skin of the scripture, he had been curious to read it at that time, but he was young at that time, and he forgot it after a while.
Now stimulated by this eye-catching red, Zhou Jinan remembered everything on the fire avoidance map, and it was clear.
Lin Ruoruo is not shy, but maybe because of the influence of the original body, she is really a little shy and embarrassed.
"Lady, it's very dark...... It's too late, let's settle it! ”
Hearing Zhou Jinan's rather nervous voice, Lin Ruoruo's shyness disappeared.
Then naturally, it was a night of red and waves, and it was really a "good sleep".
After the two had a round room, Lin Ruoruo could clearly feel that the relationship between the two had taken a step forward.
In this way, the second year passed after Lin Ruoruo married into the Zhou family.
No matter how Zhou Liaowen and Xu recuperate, their bodies were like that, and they passed away one after another in early March after the New Year.
……
"Lady, is there anything wrong with calling me to the study?"
Lin Ruoruo smiled and said, "This is the paper I have people to improve, you can use it." ”
Zhou Jinan picked up the paper on the desktop, he is a reader, and he has the most contact with paper on weekdays, he has used all kinds of paper in Chengyang City, and he knows that this paper is not often sold in Chengyang City when he touches it.
The paper was of better quality than the one he had used before.
"Lady, you are really capable."
It has been a year since Zhou Liaowen and Xu's death, and the two have lived in the Zhou family's old house for more than half a year, because Zhou Jinan needs to continue his studies, and the Zhou family's old house is inevitably remote, not as convenient as the city, so the young couple moved to the Zhou family's house in the city.
came to the city for half a year, and the life of the two of them was plain and happy, but happy days also have troubles.
Lin Ruoruo looked at the accounts at home, it was enough, but if he wanted to buy something as he wanted, he was a little powerless.
She had her own dowry, and it was very convenient to buy things for herself, but she could not always take the expenses of the public school from the dowry.
It's not that she is angry, she is just willing, if this matter is known to outsiders, Zhou Jinan's reputation will not be better, so it has become very important to add property to the public high school.
Not long after she returned to Chengyang City, she thought about the shop that was about to expire, which shop was rented to someone to open a restaurant, but it was not very good, and she didn't plan to continue renting.
At the beginning, the Zhou family bought a shop and a house thinking that Zhou Jinan was studying, so they bought everything near the academy, and the shop and the house were also close, and the shop could be taken back for their own use immediately.
It is always possible to open a bookstore at the entrance of the college.
"Xianggong, our shop is about to expire, and the people who originally rented the shop don't plan to renew the lease, I want to take back the shop completely, I don't want to rent it anymore, I let people improve the paper, the quality is good, the cost is not high, I want to take the shop back, and then open a bookstore, what does Xianggong think?"
Zhou Jinan was a little surprised when he heard her words, and there were two surprises.
One is: "The cost of good quality paper is not high?" ”
"The original papermaking process is very raw materials, and the procedure is very cumbersome and labor-intensive, and the improved process has been reduced a lot, but the quality is better than the paper made in the previous process."
As for the second, that is, Zhou Jinan didn't expect Lin Ruoruo to have the heart to operate.
Zhou Jinan thought about it for a while, he also knew that opening a shop was a good thing for the family, and he was not really unpopular, now he was studying well, and in a few years, he would have a child and go to Beijing to take the exam.
Unless it's corruption, it won't be easy at home.
"Since you have such an idea, then open the bookstore, try your hand, and if you find it troublesome, you can rent out the shop."
Zhou Jinan said this because he was afraid that if Lin Ruo had a psychological burden, he would have such a shop at home and open his own bookstore, which meant that if the business was not good, the family would lose a source.
Lin Ruoruo naturally understood what he meant, and she understood this intention.
In this way, Lin Ruoruo's Jiya bookstore slowly opened.
Bookstores need costs, in order to reduce the upfront costs, Lin Ruoruo hired people to copy books with silver on the one hand, and on the other hand, began to work on the idea of letterpress printing.
After a few months of preliminary preparations, the bookstore was ready to officially open after the shop was vacated and renovated.
Zhou Jinan and Lin Nianyu are both in the same academy, both of them are the same characters as the same class of scholars, so they can also drive the performance of the bookstore to a certain extent.
In this way, Jiya Bookstore slowly opened up the market, and the things sold in Jiya Bookstore are very complete, including the Four Books and Five Classics for the imperial examination, as well as all kinds of miscellaneous books and travelogues, but this aspect is not the focus of the development of Jiya Bookstore.
If it is to sell books, the initial investment must be indispensable, so she only sells more conventional books, which can meet the basic needs of readers at most.
Lin Ruoruo's positioning of Jiya Bookstore is more about selling pen, ink, paper, inkstone and other tools for reading.
Paper after Lin Ruoruo's improvement, the cost is reduced, this aspect of the profit is very high, as for the pen and ink inkstone, although there is no obvious advantage, but with the paper set of sales, the profit is also very considerable.
In this way, Jiya Bookstore slowly got on the right track.
Because of the Lin family's status in Chengyang City, people who are interested in competition don't dare to make any small moves as soon as they inquire, and a bookstore only has some work on paper, so as not to squeeze out the market, there is no need to confront Lin Ruoruo.
Since ancient times, those who have rarely engaged in business have been matched with those who are officials, unless there is a certain amount of silver.
After such a development, but after half a year's effort, the silver earned by the bookstore not only returned to the capital, but also had a surplus, Lin Ruoruo used the remaining silver to take down a teahouse next to it that had a barely passable business.
The original teahouse business was average, and Lin Ruoruo opened a shop selling food after he took it down.
She didn't think about selling anything particularly expensive, although the family background of people who can afford to buy books is generally okay, but most of the people who can afford to read are at home, and there are not many days when they can squander a handful of money every month, so it is very suitable to open a shop for special snacks.
The shop is full of simple snacks, including fried things, and some fixed set meals, that is, rice with a few dishes.
The cost is not high, because Lin Ruoruo pays special attention to the things in the mouth, so he sells three or four mothers-in-law who have some cooking talent, and after short-term training, they will soon be able to get started with these delicious foods, but they are not troublesome to make, and they are very cost-effective for readers.
It didn't take long for the food shop to return to its original cost quickly, and even because the food was very distinctive, people who were not from the academy often came to patronize it.
