Chapter 52: Dividends

After the drunken crab was ready, Li Miaomiao sent some to several families with good relationships, and they received unanimous praise.

And this month, whether it is a guest from a restaurant or a stranger walking on the street, everyone is talking about the crab feast in Fumanlou, and most of them are naturally praised.

Li Miaomiao was naturally happy when she heard it, speaking of which, this is also her own business, the better it sells in Fumanlou, the more points she will get.

In the next few days, maybe late autumn is coming, the weather is getting colder and colder, everyone wants to eat hot, and there are more people who come to eat noodles.

On this day, as soon as Li Miaomiao opened the store, the second child of Fumanlou came to invite someone.

Li Miaomiao probably guessed what was going on, it has been a month since the contract was signed, and if you calculate the time, today should be the day of dividends.

Thinking that she would be able to get the money immediately, Li Miaomiao happily followed the people.

When they arrived, the money shopkeeper had been waiting for a long time with the ledger.

"Miao Miao is here, let's take a sip of hot tea to warm up our bodies, and then we will start to reconcile", the money shopkeeper poured a cup of hot tea for the person in front of him and said.

Hearing his words, Li Miaomiao sat down with a smile, held the teacup in the palm of her hand, and the enthusiasm passed through the cup, Li Miaomiao felt a lot more comfortable, and joked with a smile, "I said that when I got up today, why did I always hear magpies chirping in my ear, it turned out that the money shopkeeper sent me money." ”

Hearing Li Miaomiao's words, the money shopkeeper couldn't help laughing, stretched out his hand and nodded her forehead and said, "You narrow girl." "Recently, there have been more contacts, and the two have become more and more familiar.

The two chatted a few more words, and then began to reconcile the accounts, and Li Miaomiao immediately put away her jokes and looked at the account book intently.

The account book prepared by the money shopkeeper is only about the crab business, so it looks clear at a glance, and after a while, Li Miaomiao will finish reading it.

I just opened my mouth wide in shock when I saw the number of net income there. One thousand five hundred and seventy-five taels, only one month, is too much.

The money shopkeeper couldn't help but smile when he saw Li Miaomiao, who had always been calm, with such an expression, because he quipped, "Close your chin quickly, be careful of falling to the ground." "This is just the income of the town and the county, if you know the capital, I don't know what expression this girl will show.

Li Miaomiao couldn't help blushing when she heard this, and said in a low voice, "Don't make fun of me, I didn't expect it to sell so well." ”

"It's also thanks to your recipe," said the money shopkeeper matter-of-factly.

According to the share of the contract, she deserves six hundred and thirty taels. The money shopkeeper handed her the silver ticket, and Li Miaomiao still felt that it was not real.

One for five hundred, one for one hundred, Li Miaomiao folded the two silver tickets and carefully put them into his arms. The remaining three ten-tael pieces were put into the purse that he carried with him.

After saying goodbye to the money shopkeeper and walking alone on the street, the cold wind blowing in her face gave her some real feeling.

After thinking about it, I still felt that it was not safe to put the silver tickets on my body, so I went to the largest money bank in the town, HSBC Bank, and deposited the six hundred taels of silver tickets in it.

She also saved 100 taels last month, and now she is a "big family" with 700 taels.

I heard that this money village is run by the famous imperial merchant Du family in the capital, all over the country, and the whole country is exchanged. Depositing money here, Li Miaomiao is also a lot more relieved.

Another gust of cold wind blew, and Li Miao shivered coldly, so she wrapped her clothes tightly and hurried back to the store.

Seeing her come back, several people greeted each other and went about what they were doing.

The weather is a bit gloomy today and there aren't many customers. Li Miaomiao closed the store early, gathered everyone together, and said, "It's getting colder and colder this day, and it may snow in November. ”

"Yes, it's not easy to walk after the snow," Changlin echoed.

"That's right, the adults are better, these two children are so young, I'm afraid they can't bear it." Shopkeeper Zhu is more concerned about the two children, and if he gets along with them today, he has long regarded them as his own children.

Li Miaomiao had an idea in her heart, so she said, "What everyone said is right, so I thought, let's buy a tool for transportation first."

"Buying cows?" Sister-in-law Changlin asked, the only thing the farmer family wants is the cow, and the cow is so cost-effective, it can not only pull people, but also cultivate the land.

Li Miaomiao shook her head and said, "I think it's better to buy a carriage." "The carriage is not only sheltered from the wind and rain, the key is to run far and fast. She had been in an ox cart, and the taste was hard to describe.

She made a decision, and everyone naturally had no doubts. So, Li Miaomiao took fifty taels of silver for the shopkeeper Zhu and asked him to go to the market with Brother Changlin to buy horses.

She has a general understanding of the market price, and if a cow is about ten taels, she can buy a good one, but a horse costs thirty taels, plus the carriage, fifty taels should be enough.

It was cold and gloomy outside, Li Miaomiao didn't want to go out, and she didn't know how to choose, so she didn't plan to follow. The two children were very interested when they heard this, so Li Miaomiao didn't restrain them, and stopped caring about them after telling them to pay attention to safety.

Drinking hot tea, chatting with Changlin's sister-in-law to pass the time.

After waiting for about an hour, a few people returned. Before I even entered the door, I heard Yeon-yeon's chirping, which sounded very excited.

Li Miaomiao and Sister-in-law Changlin came to the door, and the first thing that caught their eyes was a tall horse. The brown-black hair is shiny and shiny, and when it stops, it snorts, and it looks very energetic.

Li Miaomiao was so close to the horse for the first time in two lifetimes, and couldn't help but be a little curious, and under the guidance of Brother Changlin, he stepped forward and touched the horse's back, but the horse was motionless and obedient. It's not at all consistent with its appearance.,It's extraordinarily docile.。

Seeing that they had bought the car behind them, Li Miaomiao was even more satisfied.

I stepped forward to check it, although the carriage was not particularly large, but it was not small, and it was more than enough to sit on a few of them.

Everything was ready, but Li Miaomiao was still worried, because she asked, "Brother Changlin, can you catch the carriage?" "It's a big problem, and if he can't get it, the carriage will be bought for nothing, and he can't hire another driver."

Listening to her question, Chang Lin stepped forward with a smile and replied, "I used to drive an ox cart, and the guy from the horse farm just taught me. After a few laps, I thought it was okay. ”

Hearing his words, Li Miaomiao nodded with satisfaction.

It cost a total of thirty-five taels of silver to buy the carriage, and the shopkeeper Zhu handed the remaining fifteen taels to Li Miaomiao, and when he saw that there was nothing in the store, he said goodbye and left.

Li Miaomiao and the others also packed up and prepared to return to the village.

When she went back, she and Sister-in-law Changlin didn't want to make a carriage, for no other reason, they really couldn't rest assured that Changlin's driving skills were not enough. But the two children couldn't get into the carriage because they wanted to sit, so she and Changlin's sister-in-law had to get into the carriage.

Trembling along the way, fortunately, the horses were relatively docile, and the road was exceptionally smooth. When she really got home and went to the ground, Li Miaomiao put her heart back in her stomach.

Naturally, she was a little girl who didn't know how to raise horses, so she raised the horses at Brother Changlin's house, and Li Miaomiao just gave an extra one or two silver every month.

Brother Changlin was naturally very satisfied with this decision, so he became more concerned about raising horses and driving.

The first carriage in the village naturally attracted a lot of people to watch, and everyone talked about it. There are also many people who say sour words, but they are all blocked back by Changlin's sister-in-law.

Li Miaomiao didn't care about them, and drank tea and read books in the house freely.
