Chapter 39 Lo Mei Shop No. 2

Zhao An thought about it seriously, as if this was indeed the case, and nodded involuntarily.

"We have an ox cart now, if we open a lo-mei shop in the town, it will be convenient to use the ox cart to transport the lo-mei and the goods from Zuixianlou to the town." Zhao Dalin pondered in his heart, a little moved, but also a little difficult, "But after opening the shop, let's send someone to watch the shop, right?" We have to continue to do the work of making fish balls and fish cakes at home, so what about our fields and land? If we are too busy, there will be no one to farm, so why not waste those fields? ”

"Why don't we open a shop, it's good now, there is a job to make money, and you can farm." He Cuifang said softly.

She is quite satisfied with her current life, she does not have to worry about eating and drinking, and she will soon have a new house to live in. Hearing Lin Yunxuan say that she was going to open a shop, she didn't know why she was a little uneasy.

"Aunt Fang, none of the jobs we are making money now are long-term solutions. It won't take long for others to figure out how to do it, and when the time comes, there will be more people doing it, and things will be worthless. Are we going to go back to the old ways and make a living only by farming in the future? And I promised Xiao An to send him to the school after a while, I heard that the town's school fee is at least three taels of silver every year, if we don't have a new way to make money, just rely on farming, do you think we can grow three taels of silver a year? Lin Yunxuan said slowly, with a serious expression.

"I can't." He Cuifang said with a sigh.

They have been digging in the field for so many years, and she knows very well how much harvest an acre of land can produce in a year. Over the years, she has also hidden a wish in her heart, hoping that one day her son can enter the school and get ahead in the future, and no longer have to live a life with his face to the loess and his back to the sky like them. Now that Lin Yunxuan has said that she is going to send her son to school for a while, and her wish is about to come true, it seems that she should not object.

But Shinong businessman, study first, followed by farming, work is better than business, he used to farm and farm can be ranked second, now he has to slide directly to the last businessman, if he is a businessman, even if he has a lot of money, he is just a lowly person.

He Cuifang was very entangled in her heart.

She thought about it again and again, looked up and said, "But if you open a shop to do business, there will be no one at home to farm, and we will be serious businessmen in the future." ”

Lin Yunxuan saw that He Cuifang was not only worried about the problem of no one farming, but also seemed to look down on business, and her heart suddenly became clear.

Since ancient times, the order of Shinong industry and commerce in China's feudal society has basically not changed, and merchants have always been regarded as cheap industries, and the same is true in this time and space, the idea of Shinong industry and commerce has been deeply rooted in people's minds, and He Cuifang is no exception, no wonder she will be entangled, and her heart will be a little unbalanced.

"Aunt Fang, business is also a serious way to make a living, and people who do business are not traitors and criminals, and their social status should be the same as that of other classes. If there are no merchants to do business, commodities cannot be circulated, the items needed by the people's daily life cannot be satisfied, and life cannot be lived, so doing business is also a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people. ”

"Where? People in business chase after profits, and the desire for profit is ...... "Thinking that his family is now half a small businessman, He Cuifang can't go on.

"Aunt Fang, not all businessmen are greedy." Lin Yunxuan didn't know how He Cuifang heard the remark that "businessmen are all greedy", and felt that it was necessary to clarify them to set the record straight.

"Have you heard of Xu Wanguan, a famous wealthy merchant in our Shimen Town?" Lin Yunxuan casually brought a case around her.

He Cuifang looked dazed and shook her head.

"I know, I've heard he's the richest man in town, and he has a great reputation."

"I've also heard that the people in the bazaar say that he is a great and good man, and he often distributes porridge to people who have no food to eat, and everyone respects him."

Zhao Dalin and Zhao An couldn't help but interject.

"Aunt Fang, you see, Xu Wanguan is also a businessman, but don't everyone respect him a lot? You see that he has done so many good things in the town, is he chasing after profit? Is there a desire for profit? There is a saying in the ancients that although a merchant is engaged in buying and selling all day long, as long as he has a conscience in everything, that is, he has a clear conscience, it does not prevent him from becoming a saint and a virtuous person. As serious businessmen, as long as we have good thoughts and do things worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, even if we can't become saints and virtuous people, we won't be lowly people. Besides, we should be half a businessman now, let's do business with Zuixianlou and sell lo-mei in the bazaar, are we all doing business according to our conscience, do we have to chase after profit, and have a desire for profit? It doesn't matter what you think of, what matters is how you see yourself. Lin Yunxuan continued to induce He Cuifang, which was really painstaking.

"But it's too risky to do business, you can get rich overnight, and you can become poor overnight." He Cuifang's brows were still furrowed.

In the past, there was no need to worry about a small business, but now you have to open a shop, and you can't spend a lot of money, it's all real money, not a joke, what if you lose money?

"Wealth is in danger. Anything that pays off is a combination of risk and opportunity. Lin Yunxuan was not only for He Cuifang, but also for Zhao Dalin.

"That's right."

"We're all going to do business, what about the family's fields?"

"Anyway, we don't have any extra manpower to farm the land, so it's better to rent out the land."

"No! The land is the foundation of the farm. Only when there is land can there be food, and only in a year of famine will there be no starvation. We can't lose our fields, we have to have land and food in our hands. ”

"If you don't have land, you can have food, you can buy food, and if you stock up on some food, you won't be afraid of starvation."

"Let's hire someone to farm the land, so that we can have food in our hands and take time out to trade."

"Well, that's a good idea."

"Yes, that's a good idea."

......

Zhao Dalin and Zhao An also joined the team to persuade He Cuifang, and slowly He Cuifang was shaken, and the look on his face eased.

"But recently, we have bought land, built houses, and bought ox carts, where do we have the money to buy shops." He Cuifang silently calculated the accounts in her heart and began to worry about the silver.

"Don't worry about money, I've found someone to cooperate with to open a lo-mei shop, he pays for it, and we don't have to help. When the time comes, everyone will share the account. Lin Yunxuan spoke out at the right time, but she didn't plan to say anything about the silver given by Luo Yao, so she vaguely mentioned the source of funds.

"child, you can rest assured, Xuan'er is thoughtful, she will arrange these things, so don't worry about it." Zhao Dalin gently patted He Cuifang's shoulder and said, he wasn't too worried. Although Lin Yunxuan looks young, she is much better than adults in terms of intelligence and behavior, and she just needs to follow her steps.

"Sister, after the shop opens, am I still in charge of selling lo-mei?" Zhao An asked a question that he was most concerned about.

"Not necessarily, after the shop opens, you may have to go to school." Lin Yunxuan said to Zhao An with a smile, "What my sister promised you, I will definitely do it." “

"Great, then I'll be able to go to school soon." Zhao An was so happy that he was about to jump.

"Aunt Fang, uncle, we don't have to worry about the matter of the lo-mei shop, think about what we want to do first, make a good plan, and when things go well on the new side of the house, it's not too late for us to start preparing." Lin Yunxuan continued.

"Okay, listen to you." Zhao Dalin and He Cuifang glanced at each other tacitly, and said in unison.

This is how the matter of the lo-mei shop is decided.

In a courtyard ten miles away from Gangtou Village, Luo Yao was calming his handsome face at this moment, glanced at the person kneeling on the ground lightly, and said coldly: "The thing has been delivered?" “

"Yes." After the person kneeling on the ground answered, he instantly felt that the temperature around him had dropped by a few degrees, and he couldn't help but shiver. This person is none other than Yeyi, who has just returned from Gangtou Village.

Tonight, since he sent Ye Yi to send something to Gangtou Village, Luo Yao was restless, like sitting on pins and needles, he was anxious to know Lin Yunxuan's expression and reply after receiving the things.

Yeyi returned half an hour later than the original time, Luo Yao was tortured for more than half an hour for no reason, and he was extremely unhappy, and he was finally about to explode after seeing Yeyi.

"Master, this is what Dr. Xuan ordered his subordinates to bring back to the master. Dr. Xuan specially made it for his master. In order to wait for these pies, the subordinates came back later than the original time and asked the master to surrender. Yeyi said words of pleading guilt in his mouth, and hurriedly took out the braised pork pie from his arms that still had residual warmth and presented it to Luo Yao.

A smell of meat instantly filled his nasal cavity, Luo Yao's whole person lit up, and the anger that was about to explode disappeared in an instant, and the words that wanted to be condemned also changed: "Go down." “

The corners of Yeyi's mouth twitched when he heard this, it seems that if he wants to cure his master's anger in the future, he will have to find Dr. Xuan. Do you want to suggest to his master, it is better to take Dr. Xuan with him, so that he is not afraid of losing his appetite to eat.

Come to think of it, Yeyi didn't have the courage to really tell his master. He believed that if he dared to make this suggestion, the master would have a hundred ways to torture him.

After the night retreated, Luo Yao looked at the braised meat pie in his hand and suddenly felt hungry. Originally, he didn't eat anything for dinner because he had no appetite, but the pie in his hand at the moment may have been made for him by someone, so he suddenly had a great appetite. But even when he was very hungry, he still ate very elegantly, and at the moment he was tasting the pie with relish.

It's just that Luo Yao, who was eating braised meat pies with relish at the moment, didn't know that he had become the major shareholder of the first braised meat shop in the Dashun Dynasty.
