The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 815

[Chapter 815: No rest in the village]

At this time, Fang Xiu came up, looked at Lin Wanqing, and asked: “If you sell this cloth for a penny, won’t you lose money?”

Lin Wanqing heard Fang Xiu’s voice and turned to look at him , with a faint smile on his face, he said, “No.”

“Why?”

Fang Xiu was a little curious.

Lin Wanqing looked at Fang Xiu, her expression became a little serious, and said, “This is a secret, I’m sorry.”

“” Fang Xiu was speechless for a moment.

“Mr. Fang!”

At this time, Zhu’er also finished dealing with the affairs of Buzhuang, came over and said with a smile: “Of course there will be no loss, because”

“Zhu’er!”

Lin Wanqing glared at Zhu’er.

Zhuer suddenly stopped talking and just said: “Young Master Fang is not an outsider, so it’s not a big deal to tell him, right?”

Fang Xiu heard this, waved his hand and said: “It doesn’t matter, I just want to know more, of course, you can give me Some money.”

As he spoke, he took out a stack of banknotes from his arms, looked at Lin Wanqing, and said, “Just treat this cloth shop as my share.”

Lin Wanqing showed hesitation on her face after hearing this. Finally, he reached out to take the bank note and said, “I will give you dividends every month.”

“Okay.” Fang Xiu nodded.

Lin Wanqing then said: “Because of the improved spinning machine.”

When Fang Xiu heard this, his expression did not change at all.

Because he had heard this news from the onlookers before, he just wanted to see what this improved version of the spinning machine looked like.

“Can I take a look?”

Fang Xiu looked at Lin Wanqing and asked.

Lin Wanqing nodded and said, “Now that you are one of the masters, of course you can.”

She looked at Zhu’er and said, “Zhu’er, take Mr. Fang to have a look. I’m decorating the village.”

Zhu’er didn’t know. My young lady couldn’t say anything why Young Master Fang was like this. She just responded: “Okay.”

Then, she looked at Fang Xiu and Zhao Yan with a smile on her face and said, “Young Master Fang, Miss Zhao, follow me. Come.”

Zhuer then led Fang Xiu and Zhao Yan to a courtyard.

The courtyard was wider than expected, a bit like the textile factory in Fang Xiu’s memory.

In this textile factory, there are various machines.

There are spinning machines and looms, and they look no different from what Fang Xiu saw in his history textbook.

It doesn’t require much labor, just some little girls can operate it, and it is extremely efficient.

“Mr. Fang, in fact, these raw materials are not worth much money. The main reason is that hiring those workers requires a lot of money. Weaving is okay, and the weaving machines are very efficient, but spinning is more troublesome.

But the lady saw it that day After building the spinning machine, I suddenly thought of how to improve it, and then I found a carpenter and borrowed money to build several more spinning machines.

Now, the spinning machine and the weaving machine are combined. We can weave more cloth in a day than other cloth shops can weave in a month.

That’s why our cloth shop dares to sell the cloth so cheaply

because we can make money by selling it for only a penny. In this case, we might as well just do it. It only sells for a penny.”

Fang Xiu nodded when he heard this, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

He looked at the place that looked like a textile factory, and he didn’t know what he thought of. He looked at Zhu’er and said, “How much money can your cloth shop make in a month?”

Zhu’er thought for a while, then pinched his fingers and calculated roughly. After thinking about it, he replied: “Although there are people queuing up in this cloth shop every day, and there is no shortage of cloth at any time, but because the sales are cheap, the income is not much, the most is one thousand taels of silver a month.

This thousand taels The two taels of silver have to be divided among the sisters, and then the rent of the mansion must be paid. When it comes to the lady and I, we only have two hundred taels left at most.” When

Pearl said this, she couldn’t help but think of the past.

The young lady was still in Yirenju. Although she had signed a selling contract at that time, she could still earn several thousand taels a month.

She really doesn’t understand.

The young lady has always liked playing the piano.

Even if you do nothing and occasionally go to Chunfeng Tower or Yirenju to play the piano, you will definitely earn more than a thousand taels a month.

Nowadays, I am so busy that I can only earn two hundred taels by working very hard.

Hey,

Fang Xiu was also a little surprised when he heard the two hundred taels.

Because in his impression, even a poor cloth shop’s monthly turnover is more than this.

After all, this is the capital city and the south of the city. It is the most prosperous place in the entire Chu Kingdom.

When those noble people go shopping, they never care about money.

There are so many ladies from aristocratic families. One of their favorites is a rouge shop, another is a jewelry shop, and the third is a cloth shop.

In this way, this so-called Wuxiu Cloth Shop is really the first shop in history that makes small profits but quick turnover.

Fang Xiu thought about it and couldn’t help but smile. He took out a stack of silver notes from his arms, handed it to Zhu’er, and said, “Here are five thousand taels of silver notes. Tell your lady.

This land and the mansion are all bought. If it’s not enough, come and ask me for it. “

“Here”

Zhu Er showed hesitation on her face when she heard this.

After struggling for a long time, he still did not accept the banknote, but said: “Mr. Fang, Miss Fang probably won’t agree.

Although I don’t know why, Miss Fang, Mr. Fang, you don’t seem to be very good at this time.”

At this point, no He continued, but Fang Xiu understood what he meant.

She paused and then continued: “Of course, this money was not given by you, but by someone else, and the lady will definitely not want it. If

you borrow it, we won’t be able to pay it back in a short time, so, The lady will definitely not agree.”

By the end, he had changed from hesitation at the beginning to determination at the end.

Fang Xiu smiled and said: “These five thousand taels of silver are not given to your young lady for free. They are part of my membership. Remember, I just gave your young lady some silver.

This endless cloth The village has my share.”

“Master Fang is right, Wuxiu Cloth Village does have your share, but five thousand taels is still too much.”

At this time, there was a sudden voice outside the textile factory. There was a pleasant sound.

Turning around to look, it turned out to be Lin Wanqing.

“Miss.”

Zhu’er hurriedly ran to Lin Wanqing’s side.

Fang Xiu looked at Lin Wanqing and said, “These five thousand taels of silver are for buying land and a mansion. Otherwise, when Wuxiu Buzhuang develops in the future, there will be a lot of trouble.

Although I am the Marquis of Xin’an, I have never been You all know this about people who take advantage of others by force, so I don’t need to say more.”

Zhao Yan next to her gave Fang Xiu a roll of her eyes when she heard this, but didn’t say anything more.

After hearing this, Lin Wanqing’s expression changed. She thought about it and said, “Okay, but I won’t ask Mr. Fang for so much of your money in vain.

From now on, Mr. Fang, you will take half of the estate in Wuxiu.” .”
