Chapter 495: The family is in decline, making a living is more important

"I have discussed Tang'er's opening of a shop with your clan leader grandfather and the clan elders. We can select three accountants and two shopkeepers from the clan, and there are also a few people who can manage the business."

"Also, there are more than a dozen brothers in your clan who are under the age of 20 who are good at studying. I want them to study for a few more years and try to take the imperial examination."

"Among those over 20, two can work as accountants, and a few are working in the Marquis's business, so it's inconvenient for them to come."

"You have an uncle who is a carpenter and has several disciples. Carpenter work is easy to do in the capital, but the work is sporadic and not always available."

"I have discussed with your second uncle and third uncle that the Marquis' Mansion is planning to open a wood shop. What do you think?"

Yun Tang nodded and sighed, "If father had opened a woodworking shop earlier, I could have helped you get more work. The Ministry of Industry built so many manors outside the city years ago, and Yunshang Temple also expanded several courtyards."

Which one can be separated from the carpenter?

Even if she is remodeling her house, doesn't she also need doors, windows, and furniture?

Yong'an Hou smiled a little embarrassedly and explained: "I didn't take charge of those, but I asked your uncle to make the furniture and other things you wanted to add to your house, and also..."

He paused, but did not mention the dowry.

Just like the fact that there are soup kitchens set up in the city today to provide free porridge and food, he never mentioned it to his children.

Seeing Yuntang looking over, Yong'an Hou quickly smiled and said, "After this shop is opened, you have to keep it in mind and help attract more business."

Yun Tang nodded, and then looked at the uncle with a simple smile, and said, "It is better for the Marquis' Mansion and uncle to open this shop together. Uncle has skills, and he can't just work as a worker. He should earn a little more."

Yong'an Hou smiled and said, "This is exactly what I decided when I discussed these matters with your clan leader grandfather and others."

Yuntang added: "Is there anyone in the clan who likes to cook? Cooking, brewing, making cakes, making noodles, etc. Those who are good at work and have good hands can open a workshop."

"I want to open a herbal medicine shop. It's not convenient to deliver the food, but I can make cakes and pastries ready or semi-finished products before delivery."

"Otherwise, if business is too good in the future and the shop is too busy to handle it, it would save a lot of effort and worry if there were another workshop to supply goods."

"The workshop is near my pastry teahouse, so delivery is convenient. I'll give you the recipe, but it will only be for me. This is the condition." Yuntang added.

Chief Jiang's eyes lit up and he said, "So, Tang'er wants the clan to take charge of your pastry shop?"

I only supply Tang'er with Tang'er's recipes. Doesn't this workshop still belong to Tang'er? But if the workshop is handed over to the clan, the profits belong to the clan.

Yuntang nodded and told them the benefits that Patriarch Jiang had in mind, so that they could feel at ease.

Yun Tang explained: "I run an imperial teahouse, and the cakes I sell must be shipped from the imperial kitchen in the palace."

"But the Imperial Kitchen is not a specialized business. We only supply two kinds of goods at most, and we can just change the flavors every once in a while."

"For other goods with more varieties, there must be a special workshop to be responsible for it. It is better to keep it hidden in the market. After all, it is a craft."

If everything is really prepared by the imperial chef, wouldn't everyone be able to experience the life of a noble in the palace?

But if she set up a pastry and pastry workshop, she would have the opportunity to select and make some of the delicacies she had eaten in her previous life.

"The workshop removes costs, supplies goods at the supply price, and the profits go to the clan."

"We need someone who is good at cooking and someone to help with moving things around. It would be even better if we could arrange for a couple or a family to come in and live in the workshop."

"I will arrange additional personnel to transport the goods. When there is a large or small demand, it will be communicated to the workshop in a timely manner. It is very convenient if the workshop is close to the store."

"The shop will also provide customers with take-away services, so we will need to customize some food boxes, tote boxes, and cake boxes. I need my uncle to make a batch of them quickly."

"Of course, oil paper wrapping is also fine. We will leave this to the shop to take care of." Yun Tang added.

But everyone present understood what she said.

The Yong'an Marquisate and his uncle, a carpenter, jointly opened a woodworking shop. The Marquisate provided the shop, and the uncle provided the craftsmanship and labor.

The teahouse opened by Yuntang will sell various cakes, pastries and other snacks. It will also set up a workshop, and leave the workshop business to the clan to make money.

Add to that a few accountants, shopkeepers and managers, and the livelihood problems of many people in the clan will be solved.

Although both work to make a living, working for the Marquis' Mansion and Yuntang is obviously more profitable.

Only a dozen or so families from the clan came today. In fact, some of them were helping the Marquis' Mansion manage its properties and were not in the capital. There were also a few people in the shop who could not spare the time to come and visit.

In addition, there are several families who work as local officials.

That’s quite a lot of people when added together.

There are a lot of idle labor and low-level labor. After discussion between Yong'an Hou and the clan leader, the clan leader naturally hopes that there will be a few more scholars among the younger generation.

In the past, practicing martial arts did not bring any future, and later, giving up martial arts and continuing martial arts again did not produce very satisfactory results.

But with Yuntang as a strong backer, they believe that no matter whether they are practicing martial arts or studying, as long as they have strong abilities, they will definitely have opportunities.

However, these two generations of descendants no longer practice martial arts. As their family has fallen into poverty, making a living is more important.

However, the tribe has a tribe school, and children, including girls, start to learn at the age of five, and decide their future at the age of ten.

Therefore, no matter how poor the family background is, with the help of the Marquis' Mansion, they can allow their girls to go to school until they are ten years old, so that they can recognize words and understand things. Even if they can marry into a wealthy family in the future, they will be well-educated and well-mannered.

This time, the clan’s requirement for the children was that they must study hard until they were twenty years old before deciding on their future.

Young men under the age of 20 will not be sent out to work.

But the pastry and noodle workshop that Yuntang mentioned is something that even women can do, and women may even be more suitable for doing it.

At that moment, several aunts and sisters-in-law started discussing in a low voice, and some of them were obviously eager to try.

Yong'an Hou smiled and said, "Let's discuss this slowly when we get back. I'll have to help with the opening of the shop. Tang'er will have to attend the Luotian Grand Ceremony after his birthday, so he won't be free for two months."

The discussions among the crowd suddenly quieted down, and everyone looked at Yun Tang with some amazement.

They forgot that Jiang Mingan’s biological daughter is a Taoist priest and a heavenly master!

Seeing her dressed like a daughter of a wealthy family, one would forget that she is a little Taoist priest.

Her senior brother is the master of Tianji Pavilion!

Her senior brother is the emperor!

Her senior brother is the Duke of Jingguo! Duke of Weiguo!

I heard that the one who brought her up was the recently appointed Duke Dingguo!

This identity... this backer...

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but feel excited.

As long as we follow Tang'er, even though we don't know when the Jiang family will rise, it shouldn't be difficult to make money and live a richer life, right?

Yuntang silently observed the joy on everyone's faces, secretly praising his father for his experience and foresight.
