Chapter 824 - Making ends meet
Today, Liang Hanchu brought some dried yellow eels to the Fulai Inn to sell, and the dividends given by the Fulai Inn are a total of three yuan.
But they have bought a lot of expensive medicines for Liang Zhongfu and Bai Bo in the past few days, plus I bought a lot of medicinal materials to make medicines today, and I also spent a lot of money.
"Brother Chu, I calculated, it costs about seven yuan to buy medicine for my father every month, and about 130,000 yuan to buy medicine for my uncle, which adds up to twenty yuan. Although the cost will gradually decrease, after all, their legs have been recovering, but this will not be reduced for a while. We have to continue to spend, and spending this money now is also so that they don't need to spend any more money when they recover in the future, so let's count it according to twenty times.
The dividends of Fulai Inn are about ten times a month, and the dried yellow eel is about two times, and the medicine consigned in Huimin Pharmacy does not know how much money can be earned for the time being, and it is conservatively estimated to be fifteen times, so our monthly income is twenty-seven times. Our family's living expenses for a month are about 5 times, and we have to give Ah Jing the usual living expenses, except for these six times and the 20 times for buying medicine for my uncle and father, we can only save about the same amount of money a month......"
Shen Yingyue counted the numbers, her eyebrows furrowed slightly.
They were too lucky before, first Liang Hanchu found musk in the mountains, and they were able to get so many mountain goods, and they made a lot of money. Later, there was a reward from King Yan, and she also made a lot of money from the Xie family. With all this money, she didn't even carefully calculate their income and expenses.
Now that I calculate it, I realize that they need to spend a lot of money. Not to mention Bai Bo and Liang Zhongfu's medical expenses, the straw paper and toiletries she usually uses are also unambiguous, and these money cannot be saved. Besides, she hasn't counted chicken and duck food, and there are also miscellaneous expenses such as buying new clothes and making new shoes.
She thought about it for a while, although she said that they could save for a month, in fact, they might not be able to make ends meet, and not every time they were rewarded by King Yan.
And now she has two more children in her belly.
Shen Yingyue wants to use the best things for them, such as diapers, so she won't use the kind of grass ash diapers used in this era for her children, although the plant ash has a sterilizing effect, but at the same time they are also alkaline, and it is easy to hurt the skin of children, so she will use cotton for them.
In addition, there are clothes and fabrics worn by children, which must also be bought, and the degree of food and clothing must also be particular.
"Yueniang, who said that you can only earn fifteen yuan by selling medicine? I'll just make more medicine every day. Last year, you just prescribed a dose of medicine to Grandma Xiao and Second Grandma Su, and you could earn more than a dozen yuan at once, and your medicine will be marketable. Liang Hanchu comforted.
Shen Yingyue shook her head.
"Grandma Xiao and Second Grandma Su are rich, the medicine I prescribed to them is not so valuable, and not everyone can come up with so much money to buy such expensive medicine, if I want to make money from this for a long time, I can't open a high price, each pill is controlled at a price of about the same money, and the cost is about seven or eight hundred.
Those low-end medicines can be bought at Huimin Pharmacy, Lujia Pharmacy or Langzhong on the street, I don't want to spend energy to do it, and the profit of making those low-end drugs is not high, so I can only earn about fifteen yuan a month. Mainly Brother Chu, I don't want you to be so tired. ”
Shen Yingyue grabbed Liang Hanchu's arm as she spoke, and the touch of her palm made her brows wrinkle again.
