Chapter 68: The Clay Pot Underground (Subscription Requested!! )
In the evening, Ma Wei sat in his hotel room and recorded all the expenses for the day.
[Advance payment for the project: 150 gold pounds]
[Tables, chairs, and plates are recycled and make a profit of 11 gold pounds]
[Ask the workers to drink and spend 5 gold pounds]
The habit of bookkeeping was developed as early as the time of New Ross City, and the ledger was indispensable for both opening a store and presiding over a church.
The start-up capital of 10,000 gold pounds brought from the Romanov Kingdom, excluding the cost of the final payment of the project, is almost 9,000 gold pounds, which Mavi intends to use to buy potions in London as an upfront investment to maintain the operation of the store.
The most practical problem in doing business is the capital chain, if the capital chain is broken, the store and company will face the risk of bankruptcy.
Therefore, on the basis of ensuring that the capital chain is not broken, Ma Wei should set a price for the potions industry and become the leader of the potions industry in London.
As soon as Dino's goods arrive, Ma Wei will immediately become the largest potions merchant in London and even in the entire Windsor Kingdom, and he has enough confidence and qualifications to make rules.
Ma Wei estimates that even the Church of the Three Goddesses of Fate will not be able to give an accurate assessment of the value of potions, after all, potions are similar in nature to commodities in terms of demand and production.
On the bed in the room, Yunia holds a pencil, lying on the quilt to scribble, every time she is bored, she will record the snacks she has eaten, and turn them into her own unique 'self-created words', to this day, Yunia has tasted dozens of desserts, Yunia takes these words as unique letters, with different collocations to combine into different words, giving them different meanings....
There are some looks.
Perhaps in the near future, a special code language will be created.
"Big brother."
The source pushed open the door and walked in, holding an oiled paper bag in his arms, biting an apple in his mouth, and said indistinctly, "I'm back." ”
"Well, have the workers changed shifts?" Ma Wei put down the pen and asked.
"It's a shift change, the night shift workers have arrived, and they will start work after eating."
"What I asked you to buy, did you buy it back?"
"Olive oil, beef, and wheat flour, right, they've all been bought." The source put the oil-paper bag full of apples on the table, threw a red apple to Yunia, and said with a smile: "I guess big brother you want to give these olive oil, beef and wheat flour to the neighbors, right?" ”
Ma Wei nodded: "We renovated the shop, which caused a lot of trouble to the surrounding residents, and it will open for business in the future, and everyone will not see anyone who looks up, and the relationship is too stiff and not good, so we must have a good relationship with our neighbors in case of emergency." ”
"Don't need it?" The communication is a little puzzled: "What is needed? Even if there is a thief, it is not the neighbors who can help! ”
"Mr. Hamlai's restaurant is in the middle of Flower Street, and if you want to get here, you have to go through the alleys on the left and right, which means that the neighbors who live around us will become the most natural monitors." Ma Wei picked an apple, wiped it with a handkerchief, smelled the fragrance of the peel, and said quietly: "I explain it like this, do you understand?" ”
The source said thoughtfully: "Big brother, are you trying to find the eyeliner lurking around us?" ”
"Clever." Seeing that the communication was understandable, Ma Wei smiled with satisfaction: "Why should I buy a shop in East London?" Because no one would have guessed that I would choose this shop, that is, before yesterday, there must have been no eyeliner around the Great Prince, the Third Prince, and the King. ”
】
"In this case, as long as we can have a good relationship with our neighbors, if we ask a little in the future, won't we know which strangers are walking around Flower Street all day?"
"These strangers who appear around are most likely eyeliners sent by the enemy, and after knowing their identities, it will be very convenient for us to do anything."
"But...," the source hesitated, "why don't you let the fat oranges be in charge of spending?" Wouldn't it be easier for them to monitor? ”
"You have to think deeper." Ma Wei took a bite of the apple, the juice exploded in his mouth, and the crisp and sweet taste filled his heart: "We bought the neighbors, it was a clear move, as long as we did it, the enemy would know that this was a disguised protection of the fat oranges." ”
"Oh!"
The text slapped his thigh and completely understood: "Big brother, you want to treat the neighbors as obvious targets to confuse the eldest prince's judgment!" ”
"That's right, with the cover of the neighbors, it will be more convenient for the fat oranges to do things." "After eating the apples, I went with Yannick to distribute the supplies from house to house, remembering that each household had a bucket of olive oil, ten catties of beef and twenty catties of wheat flour, and they must be distributed fairly, and they must identify themselves," Mavi said. ”
"Don't worry! I've done this many times to distribute supplies to the poor! ”
The source put on a top hat, threw the pits in the trash, and turned to leave the room.
It didn't take long for a knock on the door to be heard on the street.
The neighbours who received olive oil, beef and wheat flour were all flattered, although there were not many things, they were the most practical daily necessities, food was always needed, and for the workers living in the slums of East London, who were tired of working every day, food and clothing were the most important thing.
It is a very thoughtful gift, which is neither disgusting nor offensive, and fair distribution is an uncontroversial way of distribution.
Many of the neighbors, who were dissatisfied with Mavi's extensive renovation of the shop and afraid to attack because of the majesty of the royal family, gradually calmed their anger, and the friendly gesture of the Manstein family did impress them.
It is not difficult to distribute supplies, and it is rare that an upper-class person with a royal background like Ma Wei is willing to apologize for their actions and offer to compensate them, which is to some extent an act of extreme respect for them.
The most elegant gentleman is nothing more than that....
"Letting Felix come forward shows respect, maintains the majesty of the head of the family, enhances the relationship and creates a sense of distance at the same time..."
Daniel, who was standing in front of the window and looking at the street situation, sighed: "Big brother, have you even calculated this?" ”
"It's just some ordinary means, it's nothing." Ma Wei closed the book, rubbed his index finger and thumb on his eyebrows and said, "The real test is still ahead, the three brothers of the Manstein family will all come in handy.... I'm not here to take you on a sightseeing tour of London. ”
"I know, go to school, I'll just go." Daniel pouted.
"Your character is a reckless man who likes to play knightly games, similar to street gangsters, the Manstein family is a down-and-out Junker nobleman, the youngest you, there must be flaws in etiquette, when you get to school, you must not show your court swordsmanship, when appropriate, remember to cause me some trouble, let me come forward to solve it."
"Yes."
How could Daniel not understand Mavi's thoughts?
Cause some trouble appropriately, the premise is to find the right target and attract the other party's parents to come forward, so that Ma Wei has the opportunity to contact the other party.
There will definitely be factions within the students, such as the aristocratic family that follows the eldest prince, and the aristocratic family who follows the second prince must not like each other, at this time, Daniel, as the second prince's camp, will be the first bird to instigate the contradictions between the two factions, so that Ma Wei can contact the aristocratic family behind the eldest prince....
After getting into trouble, it's not up to Daniel to worry about what to do, and Ma Wei will figure it out.
Is Ma Wei scheming?
Deep, of course, at least in Daniel's eyes.
As the night wore on, Mavi was about to take Unia to a nearby Roman restaurant for dinner, when Halder, the construction leader, suddenly ran up in a hurry.
"What's wrong?"
Looking at Halde, who was panting and looking a little nervous, Mavi couldn't help but ask.
"The house... Something has been dug up from under the house! Halder glared and exclaimed, "A lot of jars!" Clay pots! ”
