The shops that Mrs. Liu sold seemed to have little profit on the surface, so others were naturally unwilling to buy them. However, Shen Mingzhu asked Fei Yunhai to come forward to lower the price while finding faults, and finally bought them at a very low price.
These shops are useless in the hands of Mrs. Liu, and they are useless in the hands of others, but they are useful in the hands of Fei Yunhai.
Because Shen Mingzhu designed it for him before.
As soon as Fei Yunhai got it, he didn't even need time to adapt. He was able to get started immediately. The shop was integrated into the business he was responsible for as if it originally belonged to him.
The tenfold profit suddenly began to turn around, and Shen Mingzhu's small treasury was now so full that only money was left.
Mrs. Liu was still complacent, thinking that she had taken advantage of the situation, but little did she know that the chain reaction that followed caught her off guard.
Without the profit from the shop, the family's expenses will be even more stretched. After all, the rent for the two seasons can only wait for summer and autumn. Now that the rent for autumn has not yet come, there is no extra money to plan.
In addition, even if the rent collected can cover the food and clothing expenses of the family, many personal relationships also require money, and these are originally subsidized by the profits from outside shops.
Nowadays, the shop's income has dropped by 70% to 80%, which is simply not enough to meet the needs. Moreover, this adult in Beijing is having a wedding, that adult is having a funeral, and someone has given birth to a child... These are all done as favors, except for sending gifts.
Gifts often require real money.
Mrs. Liu's place was suddenly overwhelmed and she was in such a panic that the money in the public treasury was basically empty!
She was busy trying to get back the money she had put out as loan sharks, but it was still a drop in the bucket and it was of no use at all.
She had no choice but to go to the old lady to discuss it.
Although the old lady was angry, she was her own niece and her daughter-in-law. What she could do was to reprimand her, and then use her own private money to pay for it.
Finally, she said: "Why don't we accept the marriage proposal from Prince Yan's Mansion and ask them to send more money for the betrothal gift? In addition, we have to secretly ask for an extra sum of money. This money is for our house and will not be included in the betrothal gift."
. And she has already asked for the dead girl’s dowry. When the time comes, she will use her mother’s dowry to pay for it, and it won’t cost our house much in terms of money.”
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she almost cried, "The old lady is still wise, the old lady is really a good person, my daughter-in-law, I am really willing to be inferior!"
Then he took the old lady and called a bunch of aunts and uncles, asking the old lady to think of a way to get Shen Mingzhu to Prince Yan's Mansion so that he could make money.
Judging from the seriousness with which King Yan approached the eldest princess as a matchmaker, they really wanted to make this marriage happen. If they were so serious about it, it shouldn't be a problem to ask for two to thirty thousand taels of silver.
With these two to thirty thousand taels of silver, the mansion will be able to cope with the situation for a period of time. After a while, the mansion will be able to relax, and she won't be so miserable.
"But Princess Yan doesn't seem to be very happy." Mrs. Liu was a little embarrassed. This Princess Yan was probably attracted to Shen Mingzhu and wanted to keep it for her son. She said she treated her eldest son as her own, but when she met her husband
A woman would not keep it for her own son, but would not give it to the eldest son of a concubine.
Mrs. Liu thought of another way, "Auntie, if we cook raw rice into cooked rice, I'm afraid this will be possible."
