The lunch at Wangfuye was sumptuous and exquisite. Only Li Xiaonan and Wan Qing ate. Wan Qing asked the kitchen to send an extra plate of plain mutton and a plate of peanut cake. She found some pieces of oil paper to wrap them up and put them in her cloak.
.
After class, the two of them came out and got in the car. The head guard guarding the door handed a small brocade bag to Wan Qing, "Miss Wan Qing, this is sent here by Mr. Shi Gunshi."
Wan Qing was holding white-cut mutton and peanut cake in one hand, hiding it in her cloak without revealing it. With the other hand, she was holding up her skirt to get into the car, and hurriedly motioned to Li Xiaonan to take it.
The two of them got into the car, and Wan Qing first placed the mutton and peanut cakes next to the gap in the window.
There is a smoker in the car, and white-cut mutton should be served cold rather than hot.
Li Xiaonan handed the brocade bag to Wan Qing, who groaned, "Shi Gun told me that this is for you, your wages."
"Shuxiu!" Li Xiaonan corrected, opened the brocade bag, and first poured out a delicate silver pick, and then a bamboo sign the size of half a finger. The bamboo sign was covered with patterns, which was very special.
Beautiful.
"Let me take a look." Wan Qing reached for the bamboo sign, looked at it carefully, and handed it to Li Xiaonan, "This is the pair of cards in our house, this one is five taels."
Li Xiaonan let out an ooh.
This is her tutoring money today, five taels of silver, and five taels for accounting.
This pair of cards is so exquisite and beautiful, where should I put them? Her purse was also taken away by the eldest sister.
Li Xiaonan held the pair of cards and looked at them for a while before sending them to Wan Qing, "You can keep them for me. If you save up ten of them, give them to me."
"Okay." Wan Qing agreed readily, took the pair of cards and put them in her purse.
Li Xiaonan held the brocade bag and looked at it carefully.
This brocade bag is embroidered with flowers. It is extremely beautiful and must be worth a lot of money.
"Do you want to take this back?" Li Xiaonan asked.
"What should I do with it? I don't want it." Wan Qing shook her head.
"You gave me this bag and the money? Don't you want to keep it for next time?" Li Xiaonan confirmed.
"There will be next time. This is made by the newcomers in the sewing room, and it is not a good thing." Wan Qing rolled her eyes at Li Xiaonan.
"This is quite valuable." Li Xiaonan lifted the car curtain and looked carefully at the light.
When she and Sister San were shopping, they went into several shops selling purses, fans, sachets and the like. The best purses in those stores seemed not as exquisite as this one.
"You can't sell it!" Wan Qing reacted and quickly warned, "Look here, there is the emblem of our palace. If you dare to sell this, they will treat you as a thief and send you to the official! No one dares to
Collect."
Li Xiaonan was immediately discouraged.
Alas, if you can’t sell it, then it’s just something worth looking at but useless.
Li Xiaonan's sigh, which was full of disappointment, made Wan Qing's eyebrows rise. "Why do you think of selling everything you see? You can't get out of money, right?"
?"
"I want to get into money's eyes now, but there is no money for me to do it." Li Xiaonan sighed again, and before Wan Qing spoke, she raised her hand and put it on Wan Qing's shoulder, "Let's get down to business." p>
"Okay, tell me!" Wan Qing said angrily.
"Tell me, which business is the most profitable?" Li Xiaonan put one arm on the table in the middle of the cart and asked Wan Qing.
"How did you..."
"It's business, I really want to do business!" Li Xiaonan intercepted Wan Qing's words.
"Your family doesn't run a preserved egg shop. You said the business is very good." Wan Jing saw Li Xiaonan's serious face and became serious.
"Two preserved eggs net one copper, and three salted eggs net one copper. It's too little! Even if all the preserved and salted egg business in Pingjiang City were mine, it wouldn't be much money." Li Xiaonan held her chin and sighed.<
/p>
"That's true." Wan Qing frowned, "There are profitable businesses, like the weaving workshop in our house, which is quite profitable."
"What does your weaving workshop weave? What is the most profitable?" Li Xiaonan moved forward.
"It's not our family, it's our house! The weaving shop in our house only does silk weaving. The most profitable thing is tapestry, followed by jacquard, double-sided and different colors, and ordinary silk and satin are just average." Wan Qing replied.
.
"The eldest sister said that silk weaving is difficult. It takes one or two years to learn and two or three years to get started." Li Xiaonan frowned.
"Two or three years is not enough. You can learn tapestry in ten years. You can learn jacquard. After ten years of learning, you can almost own a loom by yourself. Even the most ordinary silk will take more than five years to weave."
Only when the satin comes out can it be even enough.
"Also, not everyone can learn it. We recruit seven or eight-year-old girls and boys as apprentices every year. Seventy percent of them can learn to weave ordinary silk, and more than 30% to less than 40% can learn jacquard.
Two-color tapestry is much more difficult, and there may not be one in a hundred. In the weaving workshop in our house, there are only a hundred or ten people who can weave tapestry."
As expected, Wan Qing learned to manage the weaving workshop since she was a child, and it is a treasure trove of knowledge.
Li Xiaonan sighed in disappointment.
The threshold for silk weaving business is too high.
"Let me tell you, how about you collect the cocoons, reel them into silk and dye them. As long as you do well, you can sell them to our weaving mill and make a lot of money." Wan Qing came up with an idea.
"How much money can I make?" Li Xiaonan asked listlessly.
"It depends on how much capital you have. I heard my mother-in-law say that if you do it well, you can get half to 10% of the net profit.
"If you collect cocoons, reel them into silk and then dye them, you can earn 10% of the net profit in just one month. What a good business." Wan Qing stretched her head forward and said in a lowered voice.
"First, it can only be done once a year. Second, it costs a lot. Third, it's only a 10% profit." Li Xiaonan raised her fingers one by one.
"The profit of 10% is not enough! How much do you want to earn?" Wan Qing tilted her head at Li Xiaonan.
"The profit can be thinner. The business must be big enough. At least it can't be done only once a year. This business can't make any money." Li Xiaonan held her chin again and sighed.
"Then how much money do you want to make? How much money is enough?" Wan Qing said angrily.
"Hmm~" Li Xiaonan drawled, "It should be as much money as your family has."
"Huh? Is it our home or our house?" Wan Qing asked in disbelief.
"How do I know if your family has money or not? Of course it belongs to your family."
Wan Qing stared at Li Xiaonan. For a moment, she breathed out fiercely and let out a loud sigh. She kept tapping Li Xiaonan with her fingers. She held it in for a while before speaking.
"Don't you know who our family is? Don't you know who our son is? Are we so rich? How much money do you want to have? We are as rich as the country? What do you want me to say about you?"<
/p>
Wan Qing clicked her tongue a few times, curled her lips hard, and clicked her tongue a few more times.
Li Xiaonan held her chin up and looked at Wan Qing.
She just wants to be rich and powerful.
You always have to have dreams, what if they come true!
