Chapter 45: Find a way to do business
Most of the people in the village also relied on men to go out to work to earn rice and grain, and the women did some handicrafts to sell in the city, such as needlework and thread, straw weaving, and so on.
It's no wonder that people who don't have adults and men have a miserable life and a very difficult life.
Therefore, when they enter the city, they can earn money by working as coolies, but because the consumption level in the city is relatively high, the copper plate they earn can only buy rice and grain.
The people in the village have just enough rice to survive, and although the price is high in the city, the people of the city are not so poor.
Ye Wei understood, and asked again: "Is there a lot of people on the dock every day?" Land transportation is also developed in the city? Lots of shops? ”
Guan Chi Beidao: "There are a lot of people at the dock every day, and there are also a lot of boats. The land transportation is general, there are many mountains near Yuancheng, the terrain is rugged and tortuous, and there are few wide roads...... You've been all the way here, don't you know? ”
Guan Chibei looked up at her meaningfully.
Ye Wei's heart jumped.
She said calmly: "I have only one road that I have wandered over, I don't know where the other sides of Yuancheng are, whether there is a big road." ”
Guan Chibei knew that he was in his stomach, and continued unhurriedly: "There are not many shops, not too much, not too much, after all, Yuancheng is not big enough to develop because of the terrain, because of the freight access, there are many merchants and goods coming and going, and the city is also very lively, but there are not many local shops." ”
Ye Miaowei had an idea in his heart, and suddenly looked at Guan Chibei, and tried to ask, "You say...... If we have some business at home, we don't need the eldest brother to go out to work as coolies, okay? ”
"Big brother?" Guan Chibei repeated, a starry smile seemed to appear on her face, she was not the original person, this is the same as his eldest brother, it is quite easy to call.
So self-conscious?
Ye Xiaowei didn't notice the deep meaning in Guan Chibei's eyes, he was full of thoughts about finding a livelihood, and said, "Can you say it first?" Regardless of the eldest brother, they go out to work as coolies every day, they have more strength to sell and less money, but it is better to think of individual methods, with the strength of the eldest brother, the family can earn more money. ”
Guan Chibei's expression became deeper and deeper, he knew that this Ye Miao had come up with some ideas to change the face of his family.
This is indeed not what Ye Wei, who married into the housekeeper and took it as a day, was completely satisfied and consciously had a lower status.
"What do you want to do?"
"In the villages near Yuancheng, have anyone entered the city to do business?" Ye Miaomi asked first.
"I don't know about this, you can observe it on a cloudy day." Guan Chibei said lightly.
Ye Xiaowei didn't rush to talk to Aunt Rong about making money, and first found Guan Chibei in the house and said, that's why. Doing business to make money is not something that can be successful just by thinking about it, at least market research must be done, otherwise it is easy to GG.
"Okay, then you can make a trip on a cloudy day." Ye Weizhi is the nominal "husband", as a matter of course.
After all, it's for herself, but it's also for the whole housekeeper, okay?
"Well," Guan Chibei only replied and asked, "Is there anything you want to bring?" ”
He is indeed quite responsible in taking care of his wife and children. Ye Yanyu secretly commented in his heart, so he said: "Nothing, if there is a pastry shop with a good business, bring me some of the best pastries to sell back." ”
Guan Chibei nodded, then turned around and walked out of the house.
On the morning of the second day, Guan Chibei first went up the mountain to hunt a goat, and then went to the place where he took the ox cart and went to the city.
And when he saw that he was holding a prey, and it was a goat, the people of the ox cart looked at him with strange eyes and envy.
