Xiao Qian said: "Three heads are not included. He may not settle in the capital in the future, but here in Datou, his wife is an imperial doctor. It would be better to buy a house in the capital in the future."
Houses in Beijing are so expensive that their family would have to save for many years to buy one.
Xiao Qian asked again: "How much does it cost to buy a shop? Do you want two thousand taels?"
The current price of their restaurant was almost the same when I bought it.
Man Bao said: "Not only this price, but including all the costs, it is about ten thousand taels."
Xiao Qian's mouth opened wide. This is not a shop, it's like buying a gold mountain.
Man Bao comforted her and said: "You can make a lot of money, I believe in Lijun's vision.
Xiao Qian believed it too, but their family didn't have that much money.
She whispered: "Can I buy less? If I pay 800 taels, how many shares can I buy?"
Man Bao smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, this share is rare. I have seen the accounts calculated by Li Jun. If the accounts are really as she calculated, then we can make back the cost we invested in the first year.
The shop makes a net profit after excluding the cost of making the ointment."
Xiao Qian didn't quite believe it, "I know about the ointments our family makes, and occasionally I help out. I heard from Lijun that a bottle of moisturizing cream only earns two to three hundred coins. How much do you have to sell in a day?"
Bottles, you only earn ten thousand taels a year?"
Man Bao said: "Li Jun and Fourth Brother have both found merchants. As long as our shop can open, they will immediately take the money and come to ask for goods."
This is also the reason why Zhou Lijun asked for a cost of 10,000 taels. Apart from the 8,670 taels needed to buy the shop, the remaining decorations, shelves and other things did not cost much. She had seen Lijun's list, and she
The money spent on decoration was only eighteen taels, and the rest was used to purchase raw materials.
The purpose of manufacturing ointments and white creams on a large scale is to sell to merchants who come to buy goods. In other words, their shop is not only for retail, but also for wholesale to merchants, just like those cloth shops.
Zhou Lijun obviously didn't just do it on the spur of the moment. She had planned it for a long time. She was different from Zhou Lang, who was a person who just did what he said. She was different. From the time she had the idea to the time she put it forward, she had been preparing for three years.
When she went from door to door recommending the moisturizing cream to various ladies, she wanted to buy or rent a shop. However, because there were few people buying at that time, a jar of moisturizing cream could last them three or two months.
, and some people don’t use it frequently, and some can last for a year.
So she didn't dare to take the risk.
She kept waiting. During this period, when she had time, she recommended their moisturizing cream and various ointments and ointments to the merchants she knew. She also took Zhou Lang with her. With the recommendation of the two of them, plus Zhou Man
With its reputation, many people outside now know about Zhou Ji’s creams and ointments.
Coupled with the light-stained ointment produced by the cowpox vaccination, Zhou Lijun knew that her opportunity had come, and at the same time, their family's opportunity had come as well.
She wants to open a shop, a shop specializing in selling these ointments and creams.
As long as it can make money and allow her niece to express her ambitions, Man Bao will naturally not object, and she is very confident in this.
She quietly said to Xiao Qian: "This ointment and cream are sure to sell well. Lijun and Fourth Brother have been planning for this for two years. It would be a big loss if you don't buy the full amount."
She said: "Believe it or not, if you say you don't have enough money, the fourth brother will snap up the share you missed."
Xiao Qian said: "If I don't give it to him, I'll give it to you. Manbao, don't you have money? You can pay for it when the time comes."
Manbao smiled and said: "No, I will lend you and my eldest brother money, and you will pay me back when you make money."
When Xiao Qian wanted to speak, Man Bao whispered: "I have calculated that if you, eldest brother and sister-in-law, don't have enough money, then the third brother will definitely not have enough money either. I will make up for what you lack by then."
Xiao Qianshi stopped talking.
Man Bao whispered: "You and your eldest brother are eldest brothers, so you can't be any less good than others in this regard. Otherwise, the relationship between the brothers is good now and it doesn't look obvious. In the future, you and eldest brother will have a lower relationship."
How can I take care of my younger brothers and sisters?"
Xiao Qian sighed: "Your third brother is honest. He is now in charge of the land at home. Normally, your eldest brother and I should stay at home..."
Man Bao smiled and said: "So, I will also make up for the third brother's money, and then you will pay me back when you make money."
As for the other rooms, the money is definitely enough.
Because only 40% of the money earned by an individual is paid to the public, couples like Tuesday Lang, Thursday Lang, Friday Lang and Saturday Lang have their own abilities, so they earn a lot every year, and the rest is divided between the public and the middle school.
money.
In contrast, Zhou Dalang and Zhou Lang, who were both honest people, basically worked in the fields, and the fields belonged to the public, so they earned very little private money.
Lao Zhoutou and Mr. Qian also knew that the eldest and third bedrooms would suffer when the money was divided, so they would occasionally subsidize some secretly in private. However, they still had a daughter who was not married, so the subsidies were limited.
It's just a matter of occasionally stuffing a few pieces of silver into it, or asking Zhou Lang to bring back some more meat when he returns home.
Man Bao found out the private room of his eldest brother and sister-in-law, and got a rough estimate of the third brother's family fortune. Well, the third brother is not as good at making money as the eldest brother.
The main reason is that the eldest brother has a sister-in-law, and the sister-in-law also gets paid to cook steamed meat and other things in restaurants, so she saves some money for her own money by going back and forth.
The third brother really has almost no private income.
After Man Bao made up his mind, he called his family for a meeting. Of course, Zhou Lang and Zhou Lang who were far away in Qili Village and Zhou Lang who were on the grassland could not attend the meeting.
But they all have their own sons as representatives.
Zhou Liwei didn't have any objections, and Zhou Ligu didn't have any. His parents told him to take good care of his younger brother before leaving, and he would listen to his grandma and sister-in-law for the rest.
Everyone was stunned by the ten thousand taels.
Zhou Lijun came up with a plan to settle the accounts for them, and showed them the channels she had negotiated so far, meaning that as long as she made it, someone would buy it.
Lao Zhoutou was the first to ask the question, "Since we have found a market, we can just make the ointment and sell it to them. Why do we need to spend more than 8,000 taels to buy a shop?"
Fang and the others were also doubtful about this. Zhou Lang and the others knew this, and said to Lao Zhou, "Dad, if you don't have a shop, outside merchants won't dare to buy large quantities of things that touch your face."
Zhou Li nodded and explained in more detail: "Now most of our ointments are sold to people in the capital. These people were my sister-in-law's patients at the beginning. They bought them because they trusted my sister-in-law. Later, they found them useful and recommended each one.
This is why the current sales volume is there, but if there is no shop, people outside who don’t know them will not dare to buy it.”
In the beginning, Zhou Lijun followed Man Bao's ass into and out of the wealthy houses, selling bottles one by one.
