Putting aside the money spent on booking a seat, today's income is shocking to Chu Nanzhi.
A conservative estimate is that by the time the dinner is over, the total revenue will be 500 taels, which will definitely not be a big problem.
Now it is just a single income from the restaurant. After all the courtyards and guest rooms in the garden are opened, it will increase a lot of income.
This gave her great confidence in the management of the restaurant.
She also became more confident about the racecourse's planning.
Lin Tingyan admired his nephew-in-law's business acumen very much.
I thought it was just Lin Jinxiao who allowed her to mess around as she pleased, but just now I went to Jushengfang and Qinghefang with my third son, and sent someone to inquire about it. I was deeply impressed by Chu Nanzhi's layout.
Although I still can’t understand what kind of tricks she is playing over there in Jushengfang. The crowds of people are gathering together to throw stones into the potholes. It seems a bit ridiculous, but it has attracted the popularity of Qinghefang Restaurant, and it is really inspiring.
Comes cheap.
This woman's ideas always have a unique flavor, and she always has unexpected gains.
This is evident from her trial of the Qi family's case.
With such a sharp wit, if she were just a merchant, she would not pose much of a threat to him, but she was Princess Pingning, and every plan she made could affect the kings in the capital.
The daily income of such a huge sum of money is still legal income, which undoubtedly adds fuel to Lin Jinxiao's anger.
At present, it is unrealistic to persuade His Majesty to reinstate the policy of suppressing business and prohibiting officials and their families from doing business. After all, people's livelihoods in various places are declining, and it is necessary to revitalize commerce in exchange for tax revenue to replenish the national treasury.
The only way to do this is to get everyone to work together to suppress this niece-in-law who is gaining momentum.
After careful calculation in her mind, Lin Tingyan slowly spoke: "My nephew-in-law is really too modest. Even if I make a reservation, it's still real money. I'm afraid that such a big garden will bring a lot of money after it is fully completed."
If a restaurant alone can earn more than a thousand taels of silver every day, this is a rare occurrence in the entire Dahe Empire."
After a pause, he looked around the crowd and sighed in a deep tone: "We both open a restaurant and do business, but the Qi family is not a smart owner. They only want to make money from the wealthy family, and the dishes at the nephew's wife's restaurant are both taken into consideration.
The wealthy country squire has considered the common people, so it's no wonder that the business can be so booming."
Looking at all the dishes on the menu, there are cheap dishes that cost tens of taels of silver each, as well as rare and sky-high price dishes that cost four or five taels of silver. They satisfy the vanity of wealthy families, but they do not attract the lower class people to come here.
Restaurants stayed away.
Lin Tingkai didn't know why Lao Liu didn't leave the Qi family for three words. This was undoubtedly poking the scars in everyone's hearts. He frowned angrily and said: "The Qi family helped Wu Enrong do such unreasonable things. He has already brought the blame on himself.
The house was ransacked, and now everyone in the family is in jail, so why should Lao Liu mention it again?"
"That's right, the Qi family is not a businessman with any kind of responsibilities."
Everyone pushed back, and Concubine Yue also scolded her disapprovingly. While eating the maha, she looked at Chu Nanzhi and praised with a smile: "Tai Gong Zhao is still discerning. I wonder how he dares to spare no effort like this."
He helped Princess Pingning, it turned out that he had already seen the excellence of his siblings."
When she said this, she couldn't hide the sourness in her heart, and said with a half-smile, "I heard that Taigong Zhao donated one million taels of silver to the state capital today."
"The old lady is indeed very righteous."
Listening to her sad words, Chu Nanzhi finally understood why Concubine Yue came to join in the fun today.
It turns out that the roots are here.
I don't want to poach you.
She smiled warmly, and deliberately sighed bitterly: "I feel very sad when I mention this. It is not easy for Mr. Zhao to accumulate such a large family fortune. The slave family just investigated a case for the old man and saved him once.
As for his life, the old man insisted on entrusting the family property to the slave family, but the slave family refused, so he donated it to the state capital, and I couldn't do anything to help the old man."
Hearing this, everyone gritted their teeth and swallowed with bitterness.
Back then, someone calculated that the Zhao family's wealth could be converted into three years of tax revenue for the imperial court. Even His Majesty was greedy for it.
If Zhao Guangyuan belonged to a family like the Qi family, or if he was based in Jingling City or other prefectures and counties, they would have a way to calculate this family fortune.
But he lives in Luyan Port and there is no way to find any clues about him.
Chu Nanzhi has also noticed that all the people here are thinking about Taigong Zhao's family business.
It is true that a local snake like the Qi family has made millions of taels of money for them in more than ten years. This time, the Qi family's property was confiscated. Not to mention the fields and shops, only the Qi family's basement was found.
The gold, silver and various treasures can be used to cover the imperial court's tax for one year.
According to the tax collection practice of the Dahe Empire, each locality retains the necessary expenditures, and the rest is turned over to the national treasury. According to the current difficult situation, the final amount of treasury that reaches the national treasury is only six to seven million taels, which is not comparable to the grand occasion in its heyday.
.
No wonder even the noble concubines and princes in the palace are willing to make friends with these lowly merchant families.
Fearing that these people would be detrimental to Taigong Zhao, Chu Nanzhi said bluntly: "Taiggong Zhao provided money to build the state capital, which solved the urgent needs of the state capital. He is a benefactor to the people of Pingning Prefecture, and even more so to me and His Highness. Now he
He is already old, and His Highness and I only hope that he can live a good life in Luyan Port and live a long life without being disturbed by others."
Hearing this, Concubine Yue snorted silently.
She still needs to be reminded of this.
When the old man entrusted himself with the farm shop in the middle of the capital, he probably had already prepared an escape route for himself and had already made up his mind not to enter the capital again.
Now it is no longer easy for someone to deal with him. This money tree can only belong to Lin Jinxiao.
It's a pity, it's a pity that the fish kept in the pond eventually flowed into other people's ponds.
Concubine Yue sighed with regret and said with a wry smile: "Tai Gong Zhao is a generous man and a rare righteous businessman. He is no meaner than ordinary merchants. With the protection of his younger brothers and sisters, Prince Ping Ning, he will have no worries in this life."
"Then let me borrow your concubine's good words."
Chu Nanzhi did not want to stay here longer. Seeing Li Ce and Peng Pai arriving belatedly, he quickly introduced: "These two are Li Ce, deputy governor of the Duwei Mansion, and the new appointee of Luyan Port.
County Magistrate Peng Pai, upon hearing that all the distinguished guests were coming, came here specially to offer you a bottle of wine. I will not disturb your pleasure. If you have any orders, I can send the chief shopkeeper."
"Sister Princess, please go and get busy. Don't let me and your two uncles delay your business."
Concubine Yue pretended to be extremely polite and sent her away, realizing that she had called Li Ce and Peng Pai over to please Tang Ru.
At this juncture, there was no way that Tang Ru and this dog couple could stay together. Tang Ru and Lin Jinqian had to stay in Luyan Port to restrain King Pingning.
So after Li Ce and Peng Pai finished their toast, they immediately moved away from each other, not giving them a chance to get close to Tang Ru and the princess.
