The Crossing of Fortune and Prayer Jubilee

The affairs of the Zhang family ended perfectly, and the time has entered April.At this time, Zhou Cheng also began to withdraw the money invested in Linnan Bay, not to mention how much they earned. Lou Yuzhu invested 9000 taels for two shops and a second yard, and made a net profit of 4000 taels. He took out 6000 taels before , together with the principal, there are still 9000 taels of silver, plus the successive dividends in the past few months and the previous silver, the remaining silver in hand is a full [-] taels, If it hadn't been for the purchase of [-] acres of fertile land and the construction of shops, yards, servants' carriages, etc. in the next year, the remaining [-] yuan would be enough!

On this day, Lou Yuzhu approached Lou Hua and Lou Ming to show them both Yu Yin and the house deed.

On the spot, Lou Hua and Lou Ming's frightened eyes almost popped out.The two brothers knew that Lou Yuzhu had been doing business with Zhou Cheng and Pei Guanying all along, but no matter how much the two of them thought that 5000 would be enough, they didn't want to pay more than three times what they expected!You must know that it cost no less than a thousand taels to buy a shop, buy a yard, and add servants and horses!Not counting the banknotes, the price of Linnanwan's current pavement yard. These three deeds are not small sums!

"This, so much money!"

Lou Ming stared and stuttered in a stupid and cute way, which made Lou Yuzhu smile.

Lou Hua admitted that he was also a little frightened. "Do father and father know?"

"You guys know about Dad's temperament. You can't hide things. It's not good to be forced to reveal your words by the old house. Dad is hiding things. But you know that you can't sleep if you have so much money in the family, so I I want to not tell them for the time being." Lou Yuzhu did this after careful consideration, not because she didn't trust Lou Chengyi and his wife, but because she didn't want them to worry.Anyway, even if they knew about it, it wouldn't be of much help, if they didn't know it, they would worry about it. "Let you know that I want you to have a bottom line in your mind, and save a little money when you go out or make friends with classmates."

The two brothers now have a monthly salary of two taels of silver, plus an extra "salary" of one tael for household expenses, and now they can get a monthly salary of three taels of silver with the account of the gluttonous snack shop ', that is to say, the two brothers have almost four taels of private money into the account every month.Board and lodging, clothes, footwear, grooming, going out, buying books, paper and pens, etc. are all paid by the public. Except for the places where the two brothers need to spend money, they also occasionally treat their classmates to eat. Mr. Mu bought some wine and appetizers, and now the money for the drinks is saved, and the appetizers are provided by the greedy shop, which also saves money. In this way, the two brothers have almost no expenses.

The two brothers are also very worried sometimes, worrying that they have money and have no place to spend it.There is a younger brother who is too capable. They really have no sense of accomplishment as older brothers.

"I want to ask you for your opinions to let you know the family background. The money is in my hands and it doesn't make money. I want to continue to invest."

Lou Hua and Lou Ming agreed before listening to the follow-up.

Lou Yuzhu smiled: "I haven't said anything about the business yet."

"Brother Yu can do whatever he wants, we have no objection." The repeated family background has fully demonstrated Lou Yuzhu's business acumen, and there is nothing to hesitate about.

"Elder brother and second brother can just be lazy," Lou Yuzhu said with white eyes on both of them, "Now you two are busy with your studies and I can take care of these things. In the future, you will become a family after you pass the exam. Hehe, don't think about these things again." Take half of it."

Lou Hua and Lou Ming looked at each other, rubbed their noses and smiled.

There is nothing to do with the two brothers, so Lou Yuzhu has no choice but to continue. "In the past two years, the family has successively purchased 190 mu of land, 800 mu of shrimp fields, [-] fish ponds, and [-] mu of mountain land. Some of them packed up and planted peanuts and beans. Some have planted fruit trees. The income is not much, but the income from eating at home and the income from the greedy shop can cover our family’s expenses. This year, there will be income from shrimp fields and income from off-season vegetables. [-] taels is fine, and I plan to keep the money in Father's hands so that he can feel at ease."

Lou Hua and Lou Ming agreed.

"I have 9000 taels of bank notes in hand, and I plan to spend 1 taels to build a few tea shops on the official road from Nanyang City to Linnanwan. If I don't open them myself, I will rent them to others. It’s just collecting rent.”

Lou Ming was puzzled: "Why don't we drive it ourselves?"

"When we eat meat, we always have to give soup to others." Although driving by ourselves can make more money, it is too much.Moreover, he originally planned to ignore the tea shop, but later he was afraid that blind competition would disrupt this line, so instead of managing those vicious competitions, he would intervene from the root cause.

Lou Ming seemed to understand, but Lou Hua barely understood what he meant.Giving some sweets to the local snakes over there means to win over, so that if someone makes trouble on this line, the local snakes can solve it for them without them taking action, saving money, effort and worry, it can be said to be a win-win situation!

"The remaining 9000 taels, I will keep 3000 taels for petty expenses, and I will draw 3000 taels to open two snack shops like gluttonous food in the Fucheng Zhijian house. The remaining 3000 taels I plan to buy fertile land and mountain land."

It is barely feasible to buy a house and a shop in Fucheng for 3000 taels, but buying another 3000 taels of fertile land and mountain land makes it a bit confusing for the two brothers.

"There are so many fields in the village?"

Lou Yuzhu smiled: "You can buy as many fields as you have. It is feasible to buy tens of acres or hundreds of acres, but I plan to buy the rest of the mountain land." Seeing that the two did not understand, she sighed: "The reason why our family can accumulate So much money depends on the way of Second Brother Pei and Big Brother Zhou. Not to mention that they will leave Huya Town one day, even if they don’t leave Huya Town, there will always be a time when the fixed dividend contract expires. It has shrunk greatly. If it shrinks in the future, why not take advantage of the fact that they are still opening up our own way, which only belongs to our third-party business." Lou Yuzhu is prepared for danger in times of peace, although no one will be able to move even if Pei Guanying leaves in the future The status of the third house, but of course the more money, the better, and of course the more secure the status, the better.

Hearing this, the two brothers looked upright, Lou Hua said: "What do Brother Yu want to do for a living?"

"I want to plant mulberry and raise silkworms in the mountains, and then make silk." Lou Yuzhu smiled, as if thinking of the days when he would make a lot of money in the future. "A [-]% of Linnanwan Haikou is destined to develop trade in the future. As long as we put the finished silk there, there will be a lot of wealthy merchants asking for goods. No need to worry about it, and it is a profitable business. Our third house will be the foundation of the world."

It's still a shadowless matter, but the two brothers didn't doubt Lou Yuzhu's words at all, they just asked passionately, "What can we help?"

"Elder brother and second brother don't need to worry about these things. You just need to work hard to study and pass the exam to get someone to protect your family. The more profitable you are, the more jealous you will be. If you don't have the corresponding influence, you will protect others Make a wedding dress."

No one can bear the fact that someone has taken your heart and blood, so the two brothers nodded firmly at the moment: "Brother Yu, don't worry, I will definitely live up to your expectations."

Brother San's study set up the development plan after Sanfang. After that, the two brothers went to study hard by themselves, and Lou Yuzhu started to spend money.Let's talk to Shanglizheng first about buying the mountain land, not to mention that Li Zhengyi jumped up in shock at Sanfang's big hand, and told Lou Chengyi to find someone to clean up the mountain forest, so Lou Yuzhu went to Fucheng to find Renyazi to buy a house, shop and servants While inquiring about mulberry saplings and silkworm eggs.The well-informed people in Yaxing naturally knew that Lou Yuzhu had a good relationship with the prefect son and the first-class powerful son, so they respectfully invited people to the second floor to discuss, and within two days, the house and shop Lou Yuzhu wanted were ready, Mulberry As for silkworm eggs, the merchant also took over the business.After that, he started to open the store while waiting for the merchant to return.

The ingredients and raw materials of the Gluttonous Shop are readily available in Xinyilou, so Zhou Cheng doesn’t need to agree with those miscellaneous corner chefs to decide to sell them to Lou Yuzhu’s shop at a low price. It's just a display for people to choose from.

When the business of the two shops was on the right track, the merchants over there also brought back hundreds of mulberry saplings, and the silkworm eggs came back with a few boards of autumn silkworms because most of them hatched late.Autumn silkworms are not as good as spring silkworms, but they can practice their hands. Lou Yuzhu turned around and prepared to go back to Huya Town.

I don't want to hear the news of Zhou Cheng's arrival from Huang Ying as soon as I open my eyes the next day.Hurrying to the main hall, Zhou Cheng was drinking the tea that Sanfang Yi used to entertain people, when he saw people coming, he raised his eyes and joked: "It seems that if you want to see Brother Yu in the future, you will have to post a post."

Lou Yuzhu was not annoyed either, just smiled and said, "Compared to brother Zhou who has been busy for half a year. I heard that the housekeeper's posts are piled up like a hill?" Although it was a funny joke, it was not exaggerated.Apart from Zhou Cheng being able to catch Pei Guanying's line, the fact that Zhou Cheng can earn a hundred thousand from nothing is enough to make people look sideways.It is not an exaggeration to think that visiting a relationship is like crossing a river!

Zhou Cheng couldn't help being teased, and smiled helplessly: "Who do I owe to being so busy? Huh?"

Lou Yuzhu rubbed her nose and said with a sarcastic smile, "Brother Zhou, those who are able can do more work~"

"Don't drink too much soup." Zhou Cheng saw through him. "I just hope that you will say hello before you come up with an idea next time, so that I can be prepared."

"If you want to say that, let me mention that Brother Zhou needs to quickly open a clothing store, and the silk will be supplied to our family."

Zhou Cheng helped.

"Brother Zhou, don't worry, this mulberry tree is still a seedling, don't be in a hurry!"

"You are so confident. If anyone can make this silk, the price will not remain high."

"Brother Zhou, do you believe that I can make silk?"

Facing Lou Yuzhu's raised eyebrows, Zhou Cheng shook his head: "I believe you can make silk, but the profit of silk is so high that few people can touch it."

Lou Yuzhu thought about this question. "So I only make white silk."

"Only white silk?"

"We only make white silk raw materials, and I don't plan to touch the coloring, printing, and ready-made garments."

Zhou Cheng was stunned, but he had to admit that Lou Yuzhu's move to divide interests was excellent. "If you are a man, you will definitely have a place for me among the rich merchants."

"It's better for a capable person like Brother Zhou to take on the prominent status of a wealthy merchant. I don't care about that." No matter in his previous life or in this life, what he wants is to live a leisurely life, and he doesn't care about any fame or fame. is false.
