"I thought about gathering these people together, paying them satisfactory wages every month, opening a goods circulation warehouse, and going door-to-door to find merchants to cooperate. When merchants deliver goods, we will send people to pick up the goods.

Cargo tasks are distributed to boatmen based on their sailing routes for delivery as soon as possible."

"The terminal transports a lot of goods every day. The price can be adjusted appropriately according to the value of the goods. It doesn't matter if you make more or less in the early stage. Once you build your reputation, you can make a lot of money with small profits but quick turnover."

After saying this, Mu Kuan smiled and said: "To be honest with my brother-in-law, I can only invest a thousand taels of money now. To buy the warehouse and labor costs of a large venue, I have to invest at least three thousand taels in the early stage. If my brother-in-law wants to work together, then

You can invest more money, I can invest less and take care of the warehouse more, and you and I will split the money in half. In the future, my brother-in-law will just wait for the money and not worry about anything else. If there is any important matter, I will come to discuss it with you.

”

Wang Zhuangzhi felt good after hearing this. He nodded and thought seriously. His brother-in-law has been running boats for more than ten years and has extensive experience. Since he has this idea and dares to spend so many silver coins to do it, he must be confident.

In fact, he lent his brother-in-law the money so that he could handle this business himself. The reason why his brother-in-law roped him in was probably because he didn't want to take advantage of their family in vain.

Borrowing money is definitely out of the question right now. With my brother-in-law's character, he would probably rather find someone else to cooperate with him than accept their money.

Wang Zhuangzhi agreed, but he still looked at his wife, after all, she was in charge of the money in the family.

Liu Zhihua didn't understand the warehouse her brother-in-law was talking about. After all, she took out two thousand taels of silver at once, so she hesitated.

Seeing this, Xiuhua hurriedly rolled her eyes at her husband. He was not sure whether he could do it or not. My sister and brother-in-law had finally earned some money. How dare he make such a big deal?

Mu Kuan looked at his wife reassuringly, and then said seriously to Liu Zhihua: "Sister, I don't have any other intentions, I just feel that this business can really make money. If there is a risk, I will not take the risk with Xiuhua Cheng'er. Instead of letting it go

It is better for outsiders to earn money than to let our own family earn it together. After all, our own family members are more reliable than others. If we work together, we will definitely be able to make a difference."

Liu Zhihua choked up after hearing this. Her brother-in-law was so confident that she didn't know what to say, so she looked at the head of the family and said, "His father, even a woman like me doesn't understand those businesses. You are the head of our family, so you make the decision."

Hearing this, Wang Zhuangzhi smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, brother-in-law, you can take care of it. I don't understand this either. I'll get you two thousand taels of silver in a moment. If it's not enough, we'll talk about it later."

With his brother-in-law helping to take care of it, he doesn't need to worry too much about it. He can still run the drug store and fish pond with peace of mind. When the money is earned, he can also pay dividends. It can be regarded as money making money, and it is more valuable than leaving it in a bank.

Seeing that the boss agreed without asking any questions, Liu Zhihua hurriedly asked her brother-in-law: "Have you negotiated with the boatman about those people? Don't even come if you start the business. You have to sign a contract in advance. You can't do this for such a big stall."

Careless."

She believed in the character of her sister and her husband, but such a large amount of money was not a small amount, so she had to be cautious.

Mu Kuan also knew that his sister had no ill intentions, so he nodded with a smile and said: "They are all experienced boat owners who have known each other for several years. They know that there will be no changes. Moreover, I made an agreement with them before I came back. Once I find a cooperative partner, I will go with them."

They signed and pledged their signatures. Tomorrow I will ask my husband to write multiple contracts and take them to the government for stamping. Then I will ask them to sign and pledge their signatures to make sure that nothing goes wrong."

Liu Zhihua breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That's good. After all, you grown men are not as careful as women. Don't be bothered by my nagging."

"How could it happen? It's too late for me to be happy today. Come on, let's have a drink together with soup instead of wine..."

……

By the time we finished eating, it was already so dark that we couldn’t see clearly.

Mu Kuan and Xiuhua stayed overnight and had a good night's rest. They went to town early tomorrow morning to start preparing for the matters.

Erya heard that she was going to the county town to find her elder brother early tomorrow morning, so she boiled a bucket of bath water. She asked Jiaojiao to wash it first, but Jiaojiao was sleepy and didn't want to wash it, so Erya washed it by herself.

Xiao Li ate too much tonight. His mother said that he would become a fat man. Thinking of seeing those fat and short people on the road, Xiao Li kept walking around the house holding books to prevent himself from getting fat.

He walked away, still muttering about the deeds in the storybook.

At the same time, the lights in Jiaojiao's house have been turned off.

When Liu Zhihua saw that her daughter was asleep, she gently withdrew and then slowly closed the door.

And at the moment when her mother left, Jiaojiao, who had closed her eyes to sleep, opened her eyes again, her big black eyes, even in the night, very bright.

Jiaojiao can see at night, and Meow is sleeping soundly in her nest.

She slowly got up and got down to the ground with a gentle movement, then selected a few of the shells and conches given by her uncle Bai Ri, and then slipped into the space again.

In the past two days, Ah Que worked hard to help her convert dry herbs into fresh grass and plant other plants in the irrigated field. It was very hard work, so Jiaojiao wanted to bring these strange toys to her to see, and listened to the sound in the conch.

The sound of the waves makes Aqiao not so boring in space alone.

Ah Que was very happy when he saw his master bringing him a gift. He spun around in the air and shouted, "Thank you, Master! Ah Que is so happy today."

But because Ah Que's body was too small, he turned into a little puppy and played with the shells. After Jiaojiao taught him to listen to the conch, he hugged the conch and never let go, running here and there.

, I always put my ears against the conch and listen to the sound of the waves, which is so novel.

Ah Que was so busy playing that she didn't even bother chatting with her master, so Jiaojiao went to the attic by herself. She was planning to go up to the room to take a look, but she didn't want to see a book sitting at the top of the stairs.

Hmm, maybe Aqiao accidentally dropped it here.

Jiaojiao picked it up casually. The cover of the book was blue, with two complicated words written on it. Jiaojiao didn't recognize the words yet.

While going upstairs, I flipped through the pages and happened to find a picture of a scholar-looking man hiding from the rain with a book basket on his back.

The pictures are very vivid. Just this one picture can make people feel deeply about the situation. They can unconsciously feel the man's anxiety and panic and the heavy rain.

Jiaojiao turned another page, and underneath the dense text was a small picture of a beautiful woman sitting on the ground, seemingly hiding her face and crying.

Jiaojiao was not curious about this book, so she went to her room to read it slowly.

……

Early the next morning,

After breakfast, Mu Kuan Xiuhua and his wife drove to the town, while Wang Zhuangzhi and his family rushed to the county town.
Chapter completed!
