Chapter 276: Trembling Money-Making Hands
"Don't worry, I don't open a big restaurant, I don't want to compete with the current restaurant, we only open a home-cooked shop, such a small scale, they don't look down on us, they won't pay attention to us, in fact, our money is not less."
Liu Wan already had an idea.
Now Gukou Town belongs to Wangjianglou and Xinghua Village, the two largest restaurants and have been open for the longest time, forming a relative balance in competition.
Both of them have been in business for a long time, and they are friendly with various local forces, and their relationship is also intertwined.
If Liu Wan also opens a restaurant, it will be equivalent to moving their cake, not to mention that she has a good relationship with Guan Shopkeeper, even if she is a brother, I am afraid that she will also be suppressed.
"Mother, you're still amazing."
Wang Xiaoyi thought about it the same way.
They don't look like they've made some money now, but compared with the big restaurants in the town, it's not as good as a little finger of others.
The shopkeeper of Renguan has opened a branch of Wangjianglou in a nearby big town, and the annual income is not less than 10,000 taels of silver, and it is really a matter of minutes to crush their new store.
So open a small shop, survive in the cracks, as long as you can make money, what about the size of his store?
Wang Xiao was poor and scared, hungry and afraid, but he did not lose his mind, so he could still listen to persuasion.
Wang Jing also felt that this was the reason, and said: "Mother, we are still weak now, and no one is strong. ”
"Yes." Liu Wan nodded and said, "Our family doesn't have any power, although there are two more emperor's holy decrees now, but it's not too useful, we still have to keep our heads up, and we have the strength to talk about anything else." ”
"Mother, I think if Wang Li can study hard, show off his talents, raise people or something, our family will be more hopeful." Wang Xiaodao.
"Li'er herself has such thoughts, let's not put too much pressure on him, let it be."
Liu Wan said lightly.
Along the way, the mother and son made heart-to-heart, and soon arrived in the town.
Wang Jing and Liu Wan first went to see the storefront at No. 111 South Street. Wang Xiao drove an ox cart to "roast things" to do business.
Wang Jing really had a lot of ideas, and used the Luban ruler to measure the size everywhere, and when he was finished, he looked confident.
The oven to be built in the yard, Liu Wan plans to let the plasterer named Wangcai in the town build it.
The oven in her house was also built by Wangcai.
The oven was not built in one go, it took two or three times to dismantle it, and she gave advice before it was built to the shape she needed.
But with the experience of the last time, Wangcai should be able to succeed this time.
After measuring the size of the house to be renovated, Wang Jing and Liu Wan went to Wangjiang Tower to find the shopkeeper.
As soon as the shopkeeper Guan sat down, he saw Liu Wan and Wang Jing coming in to look for him, so he warmly invited the mother and son to sit down and watch the tea.
Regarding Liu Wan and Wang Xiao being rewarded by the emperor, Guan Shopkeeper has heard about it for a long time, but Liu Wan is a woman after all, and she has been rewarded, and for some people, it is really a bit embarrassing, so he is inconvenient to ask, but he is much more polite in conversation.
When the shopkeeper saw Wang Jing, he said, "Little brother, have you done your abacus?" ”
"yes." Wang Jing said, "Hurry up and hurry, and make 6 abacus." ”
"Great, I just recently taught my subordinates to memorize the mantra, and I was about to start the actual battle, but I don't have an abacus, it's really not easy to operate, and now it's good to have an abacus."
Wang Jing hurriedly took out the abacus and handed it to the shopkeeper.
Guan shopkeeper carefully looked at it, these abacus are well-made, although they are not precious sandalwood, but the abacus beads are polished smooth and fine, very delicate, and people can't put it down.
The shopkeeper Guan was very satisfied, and immediately took 120 taels of silver to Wang Jing as agreed.
Liu Wan sold the multiplication formula to the shopkeeper Guan at the beginning, but she only received 35 taels of silver, which was really cheap.
One thing to say, at that time, the Wang family was so poor that they were able to get 35 taels of silver into the account, which was already thankful.
But the times are changing, if it were placed now, Liu Wan would definitely not sell the usage and mantra of the abacus to the shopkeeper so cheaply.
But fortunately, only Wang Jing can do abacus at present, if the shopkeeper pushes away the abacus method, Wang Jing can still make a profit by selling abacus.
Guan shopkeeper is satisfied:
"Little brother, I want as much as you have this abacus, after the abacus method spreads in the future, there will definitely be a large number of people who need abacus, and I have two ways for you to choose.
The first way is that I ask everyone to order directly from you, and you have one to do.
The second way is that you sell me the finished abacus, and I will collect as much as you have, but I will set the price by myself when I sell it later.
You can choose either method, and I will have no opinion. ”
"Mother?" Wang Jing glanced at Liu Wan.
In terms of business, he couldn't make up his mind for a while.
But it sounds like the second type, which can be cashed out immediately and has a stable income.
If you wait for others to come to buy, first, you don't know how many people there are, and secondly, they don't have such customers, which doesn't sound very reliable.
Liu Wan said: "Guan shopkeeper, let's choose the second one, we are all friends, and we have money to earn together." But I want to raise the price of each abacus for five taels of silver. ”
When Wang Jing heard this, his mother also chose the second type, he thought it was very good, with a fixed income, he and his buddies could continue to concentrate on making abacus, just deliver the goods, and not have to think about the problems of customers.
It's just that the mother actually wants to raise the price of each abacus by another five taels of silver?
He felt that a pair of abacus 20 taels of silver was frighteningly expensive, but he didn't expect his mother to be able to open his mouth?
He felt that the shopkeeper would definitely not agree.
"Okay, that's it." Shopkeeper Guan nodded in agreement.
"Shall we sign a contract?" Liu Wan proposed.
Guan shopkeeper was happy and said, "Aunt Liu, you are the most law-conscious woman I have ever seen!" OK, sign! ”
Guan shopkeeper really waved his pen and wrote a contract in duplicate, which stated that the price of each cost abacus was 25 taels of silver, and the cooperative relationship was three years. A number of obligations and responsibilities are also imposed.
The shopkeeper Guan wrote the deed and handed it to Liu Wan for review.
Since I was shocked for the first time that Liu Wan could read and read, it is natural to do this kind of thing with Liu Wan now.
After Liu Wan reviewed it, she felt that there was no problem, so she handed it over to Wang Jing for signature.
Wang Jing took the deed paper, spread it on the table, and then used the brush on the desk of the shopkeeper to write down his name carefully.
The shopkeeper Guan looked at it from the side and was slightly surprised.
Because he didn't expect that Wang Jing was also literate and knew how to write.
But when I thought about Liu Wan again, I was relieved.
The shopkeeper Guan praised: "The little brother is good, he knows how to read and write, and he is far beyond ordinary people." ”
For the first time, Wang Jing signed his name on the contract.
And this paper contract is aware that he will have an income of hundreds or thousands of taels of silver in the future.
As soon as Wang Jing thought of this, his hands couldn't help but tremble a little.
For the first time, he felt that his name was so valuable.
Being able to sign his name by hand, Wang Jing felt extremely proud.
