Chapter 74: Expanding the Inn (5)
Zhang Laosan's daughter-in-law is about thirty years old, tall, with a straight nose on the duck egg face, and a few faintly visible crow's feet crawling on the corners of her eyes.
She smiled a little flatteringly.
"The old man in our family is really confused, the two of them came to the door on purpose, and he also knows how to say hello to us."
It's really a good-looking couple.
She has never seen such a good-looking son and lady born like this.
Liu Xinger sat on the board car so far away, and the small stones along the way bumped and bumped, and her little buttocks hurt.
She didn't see much outside, and when she entered the courtyard, she sat down on the stool brought by Zhang's third daughter-in-law.
She doesn't like to beat around the bush in business.
Because that would reduce efficiency.
The brothers of the Zhang family are all mountain village husbands, where have they seen such beautiful little people, their eyes are shining, just like the big bad wolf has seen the little white rabbit.
Zhang Laosan's daughter-in-law frowned and secretly twisted Zhang Laosan's arm.
"Ahem...... Look at you who have never seen the world, this husband and lady are here to talk to you about business, don't delay other people's efforts. ”
Zhang Laosan was a little weak-hearted, and looked up at his daughter-in-law.
Her eyes were so bulging that they almost didn't pop out.
Look at you dead!
I'll wait to see how I clean you up!
Zhang Laosan seemed to hear his daughter-in-law scolding, and he didn't dare to look at Liu Xing'er anymore.
Zhang Laosan turned his body away, buried his head, and didn't dare to say more.
Boss Zhang is probably a middle-aged man in his forties, with a medium build, a square face, and the skin on his face looks very rough due to years of working in the fields.
His eyes sank into it, as if he hadn't slept peacefully for several nights.
He shook his head.
The third child in his family is a strict wife!
If her daughter-in-law coughs, he won't even dare to let out a fart!
He wanted to sell his prestige in front of beauties, so he ridiculed Zhang Laosan.
"I said the third child! Your daughter-in-law glared at you, are you like this? ”
Zhang Laosan's daughter-in-law glanced at him.
Boss Zhang shook his head and added a few words.
"You must know that I am in our family, if I say east, my daughter-in-law will not dare to say west, if I shake my feet, then she will not dare to come out of one."
Boss Zhang's daughter-in-law saw that Boss Zhang had not gone home and was about to come to Mr. Zhang's house to look for someone, so she happened to be standing on the side of the road and listened to this sentence.
She was angry.
Zhang Laosan's daughter-in-law found Zhang's daughter-in-law as soon as she turned around.
was startled at first, turned his head, and looked at Boss Zhang and smiled evilly.
"Big brother, it's really majestic! If you say this, aren't you afraid that your sister-in-law will hear about it and come back to you to make trouble? ”
Boss Zhang's face was proud.
"What if you hear it, I'm not afraid of her when I hear it, if she dares to make trouble, I'll peel off a layer of her skin!"
The most competitive and calculating between the concubines is the most competitive.
This boss Zhang actually dared to show her face like this in front of Zhang Laosan's daughter-in-law.
If he didn't give him a little color, he was afraid that he didn't know that the tiger was not powerful, and he thought she was a sick cat.
Boss Zhang's daughter-in-law was angry up and down.
took off the dirty shoes and threw them on Boss Zhang's face with a flick.
"You said that you came to the second and third children to discuss the old man's shop, and you actually came here to brag about it, to see how I cleaned up your skinless and faceless one, and said that I was going to pick up my skin, and I will pick your skin first."
Boss Zhang was in a hurry and stood up in a panic.
He was a little incoherent.
"You...... You...... Aren't you nursing your baby in the house? How did you get here? ”
Zhang's eldest daughter-in-law was angry.
"If I don't come, I don't know how you're going to arrange me?"
caused Zhang Laosan and his daughter-in-law to laugh for a while.
Zhang Laosan's daughter-in-law did not forget to add fuel to the fire.
"Yo...... Big brother, what's wrong with you, didn't you say it? Didn't you say that at home, if you want your sister-in-law to go east, she won't dare to go west? Why do I see you seeing your sister-in-law like a mouse seeing a cat! ”
Zhang Laosan's daughter-in-law laughed as she spoke.
Boss Zhang was so anxious that his face turned red.
He glared at her.
"You talkative, don't say any more."
Boss Zhang's daughter-in-law soon noticed the beautiful woman in the courtyard.
She was even more angry.
She said that why did he turn the other way today, no wonder he stayed until Zhang Laosan stayed all morning.
Dare to love this third child who hides such a stunner in his house, and look at him to bewitch him.
Boss Zhang's daughter-in-law was about to scold when she opened her mouth.
Zhang Laosan's daughter-in-law understood her temperament, so she quickly grabbed her and gave her a look.
She whispered in her ear.
"Sister-in-law, these two are here to collect the old man's shop, this is our God of Wealth, don't scare people away."
Boss Zhang's daughter-in-law noticed that there was a man standing next to the woman.
Extraordinary temperament.
After a few more glances, she was stunned, and she didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.
The face of the old man of the Zhang family is thin and emaciated, his face is dark, his eyebrows are very light, his eyes are not gray, yellow and yellow, and there is no charm at all.
He hasn't married yet, so naturally he doesn't have these troubles.
Compared with Boss Zhang - and Zhang Laosan, he looks at some things more rationally.
He said coldly.
"You noisy, it's not like you're letting our guests come here to see the jokes, but fortunately, now that our people are here, it's okay to say anything, people are doing big business, don't delay people's efforts."
The people in this courtyard are really not noisy.
Liu Xinger watched the excitement for a while, and her heart was clear.
This big family was shocked, this one who controls the overall situation and makes up his mind is still this old - two.
She found the right target, and she found someone who could talk.
She smiled and politely called Zhang Lao-Er "brother".
"Brother, this is the case, our inn has been preparing to expand in recent days, and the bowl and jar shop next door has been transferred to the name of our Fulai Inn, and the other is your old man's umbrella shop, he is not willing to let him live or die, we have no choice, so we asked around, found your three brothers, and discussed this matter with you!"
Boss Zhang's daughter-in-law heard this and scolded.
"How can this old man really be more stubborn than the stones in the pit, his broken shop can make a few dollars a year! Why don't you let it out! ”
Zhang Lao-er glared at her
"Guy with long hair and short knowledge! Men's family talks, you women don't interject! ”
Boss Zhang's daughter-in-law gritted her teeth angrily.
But I didn't dare to say a word.
Boss Zhang didn't dare to provoke Zhang Lao-Er, and he was afraid that her daughter-in-law would be angry, so he pushed her shoulder and coaxed her.
Boss Zhang's daughter-in-law just squinted and rolled her eyes.
Zhang Laosan and his daughter-in-law understand the temper of his second brother.
Since he spoke, the couple would not interject much.
Zhang Lao-er's expression was serious.
"Not for sale? Why didn't he sell? ”
Liu Xing'er frowned, expressing helplessness.
"Brother, you don't know this, you probably also know the climate of this stone town, where can you do umbrella shop business, if other umbrella shops can't survive for a long time, but this old man of your family is amazing! There's nothing to say about that craft in Stone Town, if it'......"
Liu Xing'er shook her head and expressed helplessness.
Daddy Zhang has some skills, and the three brothers all know it.
Daddy Zhang relied on this craft to raise the three of their brothers.
It's just that the three brothers don't have such a pair of skillful hands, and after they split their families, they all planted some fields in Dayu Village, raised some chickens, ducks and geese, and made a living.
What is Daddy Zhang's craftsmanship?
The three brothers don't know.
There are more craftsmen making oil umbrellas in this town.
Everyone will only care that it is going to rain on this day, as long as they have an umbrella to shelter from the rain.
Who cares what this umbrella is made of?
Zhang Lao-two asked.
"What if?"
Liu Xing'er sighed.
"Brother, do you know how much an oil umbrella can be sold for?"
Zhang Lao-er said.
"It's about twenty cents!"
Liu Xing'er shook her head.
"Wrong! Craftsmanship like Daddy Zhang's in Xicheng is at least about forty or fifty yuan, and we and Daddy Zhang are also old neighbors for many years, how does he make a living, we are looking at it, and we can earn ten taels of silver a year if we throw away the gross profit. ”
Zhang Laosan was a little disdainful.
"He only earns ten taels of silver a year, and he keeps four taels for himself to live, and the three of us brothers divide it, and each person gets two taels of silver, what can two taels of silver be used for a year?"
Liu Xing'er pursed her mouth.
It is said that raising children to prevent old age, raising children to prevent old age, this old man Zhang has raised three sons.
After a year of hard work, he earned ten taels of silver, kept four taels for his life to pay taxes, and gave six taels to his three sons.
It's just that these three old guys don't know what to do, and they take it for granted.
Liu Xinger became more and more angry the more she listened.
But anger won't solve the problem.
She suppressed the anger in her heart!
Gotta educate these three guys well.
Liu Xinger said.
"Ten taels of silver is about 10,000 Wen, a year is 365 days, on average, there is a daily sale of an oil-paper umbrella, you must know that the stone town is not an umbrella shop business at all, an average of a day can sell an oil-paper umbrella, then if it is placed in a big place like Xicheng, it is rainy all year round, the location is good, the population is dense, the average day to sell ten oil-paper umbrellas, it is not a problem, according to the price of Xicheng, an oil-paper umbrella is about 50 Wen, ten oil-paper umbrellas are 500 Wen, There are three hundred and sixty-five days in a year......"
"Stop...... Stop...... Stop...... I count, I count. ”
Boss Zhang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he read silently.
"Three hundred and sixty-five days a year, five hundred ...... a day"
Zhang Laosan's daughter-in-law didn't know where to move an abacus and handed it to Zhang Lao-er.
