Crispy little husband

The scene that happened at the door of Su's house was seen by outsiders, and they couldn't help thinking that the rumors were not groundless, and that the Su family really didn't treat their third master very well.

In fact, before Su Gaoping and the others came out, some people speculated that Su Gaoping and the others would stay in the Su family. After all, before that, the Su family jumped up and down for a long time, clamoring to take Su Gaoping back.

In the end, when they came to the door, the Su family had no intention of keeping anyone. Judging by the concierge's attitude, the Su family didn't seem to welcome their third master?

The concierge's attitude towards Su Gaoping and Tang Xi was actually not disrespectful, but if you compare him with the way he nodded and bowed when he treated the old man Su and Su Gaoyi, it was indeed a lot worse.

The people below act according to the faces of the people above. Mr. Su and the others don't like Su Gaoping very much, so the people below will naturally not flatter the third master who is not taken seriously.

The servant's attitude reflected the master's attitude. After Su Gaoping and the others left the Su family, the Su family was once again talked about by many people in secret.

At this time, almost three months had passed since Su Gaoping met the bandits.

Mrs. Su suddenly realized that the accounts of several shops in the family should have been accounted for a long time ago. He called together several stewards to check the account books of each shop, wanting to see how the income has been in the past few months.

The stewards looked at each other in blank dismay, holding the account books of the past few months in dismay.

In the past few months, the Su family's cloth and water flow, no matter it is compared with the time of the previous two years, or compared with the last accounting, it is not a star and a half.

Listening to the three stewards talking about their situation, Mrs. Su's face became increasingly gloomy, so gloomy that he almost dripped water.

It was only when the accounts of the three shops were put together that Mrs. Su discovered a bigger problem - the net profit in the past few months was only a quarter of what it used to be.

In the past, Mrs. Su no longer cared about the business of the shops, and would take a rough look at the net profits of several shops when checking accounts. He had a good idea of ​​the income of each quarter. How could there be such a big difference?

So, he carefully looked at the account books of the three shops and calculated the income and expenditure. Even if the business has suffered a lot, it will not be reduced to this level, at least one-third.

Soon, Mrs. Su thought of the coarse cloth shop that Su Gaoping managed, which he hadn't noticed before.

Some time ago, the account books of the coarse cloth shop were still piled up in the Su family's account room. Old Master Su asked someone to find them out, and he knew what the problem was at a glance.

Unexpectedly, among the four shops in the family, the most profitable one was actually the coarse cloth shop managed by Su Gaoping.

Su Gaoping took the path of small profits but quick turnover. He couldn't make much money from a piece of cloth, but when the quantity increased, he could earn more.

Old Mrs. Su's face became uglier than before. He thought that he had disposed of the coarse cloth shop in a hasty manner after learning that Su Gaoping was dead. Why was he so obsessed that he made such a decision without even looking at the account books? ?

At this time, Su Gaoyi, who was supposed to be listening to the stewards' report with him, was being left in the shop by Mrs. Su's excuse.

Even if Su Gaoyi is not around, he probably knows the situation of these shops. After all, he has been in charge of these shops for so many years, and he still has some control over the shops.

Su Gaoyi thinks that the business of the shop has suddenly deteriorated so much in the past few months. It is largely due to his father's failure to arrange for people to buy materials for winter clothes in time after he took charge of the shop. so good.

He thought, if his father blamed him for the poor business of the shop, he would point out this point to refute, obviously he managed well, but his father changed when he came.

However, at this time, the focus of old master Su's attention has shifted to the coarse cloth shop that was locked up.

It is impossible for a person like Mrs. Su to find excuses on himself. He quickly attributed the reason for his hasty disposal of the coarse cloth shop to Su Gaoyi and Mrs. Su.

In the past few months, their mother and son have made Old Master Su very unhappy.

The old master Su, who had figured it out, took the result of this accounting, and went back to find Mrs. Su to settle the account with a dark face.

Most of the Su family's income comes from these shops, and a small part comes from the land they bought.

It takes one year for the field to be harvested. The tenant farmers planted the Su family’s land and handed over 30% of the harvested grain. There were no. [-] people in the Su family. The grain handed in by the tenant farmers was enough for the Su family In addition, it can be sold to grain shops to maintain other daily expenses.

Therefore, the reduction in the income of the shop will not affect the food and clothing of the Su family.

However, Mrs. Su or Jane's fancy some jewelry, and if they want to buy some large ornaments at home, and maintain the ostentation of the Su family when they go out, they all need money. The money comes from the income of the shop.

When Mrs. Su heard that the store's net profit had dropped so much, she immediately realized the seriousness of the problem, but when Mrs. Su blamed her for the problem, she was unhappy.

The Su family has always been dominated by men outside and women inside. When Mrs. Su was in charge of the family affairs, at most she only worried about the land property, because it was related to the family's food.

She never intervened in the business of the shop from the beginning to the end, and she didn't say a word, no one could blame her.

The two quarreled over this issue, and when Su Gaoyi got home and heard about it from Jane's mouth, his face also turned dark.

According to his father, in the past few years, the three shops he manages are actually not as good as his third brother's one, the one that sells low-grade coarse cloth?

Su Gaoyi looked down on Su Gaoping, and even less on Su Gaoping's coarse cloth shop, thinking that he was always ashamed to deal with inferior people, and never cared about the account books of the coarse cloth shop.

But at this time, someone told him that the person he looked down on did much better than him, how did he accept it.

Old Mrs. Su had a big fight with Mrs. Su and failed to vent his anger. He called Su Gaoyi, compared him with Su Gaoping, and spoke harshly.

Su Gaoyi is the favored one in the Su family, when has he ever been scolded by pointing his nose like this.

Su Gaoping didn't dare to talk back when he was dismissed, but Su Gaoyi dared to say what he thought before, and what he said made Mrs. Su very angry.

Because of the coarse cloth shop, the relationship between the Su family dropped to freezing point again.

At this time, Tang Xi's dowry shop, after looking for a carpenter to redecorate it, hung up a plaque of "Tang Ji Cloth Shop", and started their opening promotion in a low-key manner.

When Tang Dongrang made a special trip to find a fortune teller at the gate of the city to choose an auspicious day for the opening of the business, Tang Dongrang followed his No. 11 brothers, led by Zhou Zheng, and put on their custom-made clothes. There are red cloth scarves tied in the middle and on the head, and they set off from Tangji cloth village in arrogance and walked towards the downtown.

The eleven men beat the drums as they walked, their spirits sank to the dantian, and their momentum was like a rainbow, shouting: ""Tang Ji Cloth Village" new store opens, buy one foot of fabric and get one foot free, on the opening day, buy and get free, If you miss it and wait for a year, everyone, go see it and buy it!"

……

The idea of ​​this publicity was thought of by Su Xin. He remembered that in later generations, when a new store opened, it was a very common way to hire some old men and women to wear red and green belts to the streets to publicize.

In this day and age, copying is definitely not enough, so Su Xin only suggested to find someone to wear a uniform to go out on the street, and then make some gongs and drums to increase the momentum.

After carefully comparing the effects of gongs and drums, Tang Dong thought that using gongs alone was a bit noisy, but adding gongs and drums together was like a wedding, so they finally decided to use only drums.

Then, Tang Dong thought that the opening was a great event, so he tied up red cloth scarves for everyone, and the final effect was Zhou Zheng and the others.

Before that, Su Xin ran behind Tang Dong to see how they were practicing. To be honest, he was a little uncomfortable, and always felt weird and hot-eyed.

The reason may be due to the contrast between everyone's relatively strong figure and the small waist drum.

Tang Dong has always been very kind to his brothers who followed him, no matter how poor they were in the past, they were able to eat and clothe themselves later on, and none of them were particularly thin.

Su Xin felt that it was not very good. To Tang Dong and the common people living in this era, it was not surprising at all, and it was very novel.

With uniform clothes, no matter how tall, short, fat or thin, Zhou Zheng and his group attracted the attention of others, not to mention that they also had waist drums. When they knocked in a uniform way, the attention of the whole street was attracted.

Compared with the strange behavior of this group of men, what attracts the daughters-in-law and mother-in-law's attention is the words they shouted, buy it and give it away?Really such a good thing?

With the mentality of watching the fun or taking advantage, many people asked about the location of Tangji Cloth Village, and then walked to Tangji Cloth Village together.

No matter whether you buy it or not, you won’t lose money if you take a look. If it’s really as good as those guys say, and the material of Tangji Cloth Shop is good, why not buy it?

As Zhou Zheng and the others visited more and more places, the newly opened Tangji Cloth Shop changed from deserted and deserted to bustling and bustling.

Tangji Cloth Shop is the same as the previous Sujia shop, mainly selling coarse cloth suitable for ordinary people, which is durable.

Different from the coarse cloth shop of the Su family, Tangji Cloth Village has set aside a small area to sell cotton cloth, not fine cotton cloth, but coarse cotton cloth woven by the women in the village. It looks not as fine as fine cotton cloth, but it is softer than coarse cloth. and.

No matter it is ordinary coarse cloth or coarse cotton cloth, Tangji cloth shop will buy one foot and get one foot free.

When people with quick brains come to Tangji cloth shop, they first check the quality of the material, and then ask the price. After confirming that there is no problem, they add up.

How could such a great thing come across in ordinary times, and the ten feet of material given away for nothing can be used well, so that I can make an extra piece of clothing for the child.

At this time, the customers flocking to the shop didn't pay attention to the ready-made clothes hanging on the shop, they were all influenced by the people around them, they only cared about grabbing the materials they liked, and worried that they would be bought out by others if they were too late.
