Chapter 121: The Cellar
"Of course, their wages are also three times more expensive than those of the shop outside!"
"It can be said that it is enough for their family to have no worries about food and clothing, if they are smart enough, it is impossible to cause any trouble at this juncture."
"They can take this tael and keep it to death. But if they have bad intentions, once I find out, it will be unforgiving. ”
"A family will die without a place to be buried, and a person will think about it."
"Which deal is more cost-effective? I'm afraid that there will be those who don't have long eyes, so I limited the number to about five people. ”
Xia Qingqing said, "Okay, I don't have to worry about you doing things, you can arrange these little things by yourself." ”
"You don't have to repay me for everything, otherwise you will be too tired, I have given you the right, and I will not doubt you, you can rest assured and do it boldly."
"Master Xie trusted," Lin Cai walked to the desk and put it on the small ornament next to the bookshelf, buttoned it twice, and a secret door opened. ”
"Inside the passage are perennial torches, and because they have been building them lately, they have attracted attention, and the fire of the torches has not been extinguished by the master."
"Please, it's still a little dim on the side, so be careful about your step."
Xia Qingqing felt a sense of novelty, which was similar to the modern escape room, she covered her beating heart and slowly descended the steps.
After walking through a stick of incense, I came to this cellar, "Wow, you built this cellar so big, aren't you afraid that it will collapse?" ”
"Master, don't worry, it will definitely not collapse, the workers I am looking for have real kung fu in their hands."
"That's good, that's good, you must pay attention to safety, master, you can rest assured."
What caught Xia Qingqing's eyes was a whole three walls of silver watermelons.
Each shelf is divided into five layers, and ten silver watermelons are evenly placed on each layer.
Xia Qingqing stepped forward and touched the silver watermelon, and wanted to pick it up again, but Lin Cai hurriedly stopped it, "Master, you can't do it!" ”
"This person, the watermelon is nearly seventy pounds, you can't hold it at all, don't flash your waist!"
Xia Qingqing said with palpitations, "It's good that you said it, otherwise I wouldn't be able to hold it up under the excitement, so I would stretch my waist." ”
"With such a heavy weight, it must have taken a lot of effort for you to move."
"Master, don't worry, it's all two people working together to make one."
"It's similar to a small back basket, except that the normal back basket is carried by one person, and this back basket can be carried by two people together."
"Together, carry this silver watermelon." Xia Qingqing patted the silver watermelons one by one and made a dull sound, echoing in this secret room.
"How many taels of silver does this cost?"
Lin Cai said, "No more, no less, a full 400,000 taels!" Xia Qingqing couldn't believe it, "How much, how is it possible?" ”
Lin Cai said, "The master sends you the account book every day, don't you even look at the daily profits?" ”
Speaking of this Xia Qingqing, his eyes drifted away, looking weak.
Lin Cai sighed, he knew that the master was a lively man, and the way he wanted to make money was okay, but if he was asked to check the accounts on time and on time every day, he would waste his energy.
In these trivial things, he was definitely unwilling, and then said, "When we make a good profit every day, we have more than 3,000 taels, even if it is a little worse, it is more than 1,000 taels." ”
"The jewelry we sell has not yet been fully calculated, and this is also the income of the restaurant."
"Those clavicle chains and the like, if you sell two or three a day, you calculate how many, and it has been more than two months now."
"I still think it's a little bit less, and you've spent twice as much all day."
Xia Qingqing couldn't believe anything, "I'm really a loser, I've spent so much, I'll definitely spend less in the future." ”
Lin Cai carefully folded his fingers and counted for him, "When you are happy, these people will be less than two taels of silver, one person will be five taels, and the other will be ten taels." ”
"When you were appreciating, you never thought that I would earn this silver, and I was tired and panicked! Plus a happy one, that is, the monthly case doubles! ”
"All the shopkeepers have food and lodging all for you, and you will also be given two sets of new clothes every year, plus the monthly rules of those big shopkeepers, and the silver is so high."
"Seventy-seven-eighty-eight, Lin Lin finally came down, didn't he earn a little less?"
"But it's okay, let's be considered to have been running wild on the road to making money, didn't you say?"
"As long as our train doesn't stop, even if the progress is slower now, it will die on the highway one day, don't you think it's going to be at high speed now?" Xia Qingqing listened helplessly, he confused the train with the highway, but he didn't correct him.
She knows that the matter of making money, for the people in Bai Yutang, it can no longer be measured by quantity, but a kind of responsibility, a kind of trust.
They know that when the country is in danger, Bai Yutang will definitely come forward, and the reason why Bai Yutang has capital is because Bai Yutang can make money and Bai Yutang has silver, so they have been fighting for this belief.
Lin Cai continued, "Don't underestimate these, this is not counting the silver taels earned by the Xuzhou branch!" ”
"What? And that's not all! ”
This time it really surprised Xia Qingqing, "Then we can make too much money," Xia Qingqing touched the silver watermelon one after another and couldn't put it down.
Lin Cai said funny, "Master, look here, he tore down a curtain like a trick, and it turned out that this secret door was split in two. ”
"The light on this side of the silver watermelon is not bright, and on the dark side, there is also a black curtain to block it."
"People think that it is already the end of the secret room, but behind the curtain, there are rows of pointed watermelons, but this number is less than half of the watermelons."
"These two walls of gold and silver," Xia Qingqing looked left and right, and couldn't speak for a while.
"Lin Cai, you surprised me too much, this golden watermelon is really beautiful!"
Xia Qingqing took three steps and two steps over, and began to touch it with relish, "How many taels of gold do you have to have?" ”
"Master's golden watermelon is still a little smaller, forty catties, which is half smaller than a silver watermelon."
"After all, gold is not valuable, but it is also one of the raw materials we consume."
"Sometimes, it's not as good as the storage of silver, besides."
"The circulation rate of gold on the market is also relatively low, except for those things that are beautifully made and master-cast."
"Ordinary shops don't accept gold, one thinks it can't be found, and the other thinks that gold is soft and fragile."
"It's not as strong as silver. Even the common people were far less fond of gold than they were of silver. ”
Xia Qingqing's eyes were full of little stars, and he said, "What's this, it's nothing more than what the upper-class nobles like, and what the emperor of the dynasty likes." ”
"The people below just follow the trend, it's nothing more than the current emperor, and he doesn't respect it, these things made of gold, the people below think that the value of gold is low."
"If you want me to say, those who don't like gold are simply picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons! How many pieces of silver can a piece of gold be exchanged for? ”
"What the master said," Lin Cai stood behind Xia Qingqing and looked at Xia Qingqing with a smile.
Touching the golden watermelon for a while, turning around for a while, and touching the golden watermelon again, I couldn't move my hands or eyes.
Xia Qingqing was in the cellar with him and talked for a long time, "Master, after all, the air in this cellar is not well circulated, and staying for a long time is harmful to the body, let's go up first." ”
When Xia Qingqing heard this, she nodded unsatisfactorily and said, "Let's go, let's go up, I have indeed stayed for a long time, and I also have some chest tightness." ”
After the two returned to the ground, Xia Qingqing couldn't believe it, drank several cups of jasmine tea, and said, "Lin Cai, you are simply my cornucopia." ”
"I feel that if the matter is handed over to you, I will be able to do a good job of silver taels, and if I hand it over to you, I will be able to conjure up greater wealth, you are the wealth boy sent by the God of Wealth, you are giving me Xia Qingqing, send silver taels!"
"Master, look at what you said! Everything is carried out according to our ideas, and even if it is to make money, it can only be said to be expected. ”
"It's still you, you look at the account book every day, you are confused, you don't read it carefully, you don't read it carefully."
"How much does our Bai Yutang receive every day, how much every ten years, and how much every month."
Xia Qingqing said firmly, "This time I can persevere, and I will be motivated immediately!" ”
As soon as she saw the silver watermelons on the wall, she also felt sincerely proud, and immediately said, "Don't worry, when I check the account books in the future, I will definitely observe it carefully, this silver two situation, there will never be anything like today." ”
Lin Cai couldn't laugh and said, "Master, even if you don't want to read the account book, it's okay, I'll hand it over to you on time, you can check the accounts occasionally, you don't have to count it all day." ”
Xia Qingqing put her heart back in her stomach at this time, "Lin Cai, you are the best, you know what this county lord is most afraid of, and I really won't hide it from you." ”
"The lord of this county, since I was a child, I was most afraid of the topic of arithmetic, I was so big that my head was so big, in the end, this abacus knew me, I didn't know him."
Xia Qingqing's words made Lin Cai so funny, and at this time, Xiaolan knocked on the door. "Miss, it's noon, are you eating here?"
Xia Qingqing said, "Come in, I'm here, and you all come over together." ”
Xiao Lu pushed the door in, followed by Xiao Lan, "Lin Qian's shopkeeper, greet the guests in the front hall, he said that if you eat here." ”
"Let's have dinner first, and when he comes over, he says that there is a big customer who has to accompany him."
