Ancient Fortune Records
Chapter 35
Shen Li was rewarded by His Majesty's Yongye Field, which everyone in the village envied.In the past, there were matchmakers who inquired about what kind of girl Shen Laiqiu would like to marry Shen Li when he grew up, but now they don't inquire.
Who dares to inquire?The land property is under Shen Li's name, and the land he has obtained now is the first in Qinghe County, accounting for more than half of the land in Qinghe County. In the future, if he becomes a Li Zheng, or donates to a small official, then he will really be with them. These ordinary people are different, and ordinary matchmakers cannot find a girl who can match him.
Now when Shen Li went out, the villagers would all call Li Xiaolang Jun. Shen Li was quite embarrassed to hear it at first, but when he got used to it, he treated it normally.
"Mr. Li Xiaolang, come to my house and eat a bowl of fried broad beans. The freshly fried broad beans are delicious and crispy!"
"Mr. Li Xiaolang, there is something wrong with the soap we make at home, and it smells a bit weird. Can you help me take a look at it?"
"Mr. Li Xiaolang..."
Shen Lidu smiled and agreed. On the surface, he looked like a shy and capable child. In fact, the villagers could feel that this child was already like adults like them. Much stronger than ordinary people.This child can be relied on.
Merchants or retail investors who come to buy soap like to ask Shen Li for opinions, for example, tell Shen Li which street he is on, the surrounding population, clothing customs, and climate, and then Shen Li will give reasonable suggestions. Provide a vague purchase quantity and a mix of goods so that they do not purchase blindly.Those who are willing to listen to Shen Li's analysis may make less money in the end, but they will definitely not lose money.Shen Li also heard many stories and knew many customs.
Originally, Shen Li thought that the milk-scented white soap would be very popular, but it turned out that few people liked white, so in the end, the production of white soap was reduced.Just when Shen Li put away the white soap and stored it in the treasury and used it slowly, he learned that his descendants used white soap every day when filial piety was popular this year.
Shen Li: Weird.
But the market is the boss, so you have to listen to the boss.So the white soap has just been taken out of the library, and the price has tripled.Because when the white soap first came out, few people cared about it, so the merchants were not stupid and didn't buy any more.There were no more products on the market, and I remembered that there might be some in stock at Shen Li's house, and you fought over each other, causing the price to go up.Later, when the production of white soap resumed, the price dropped normally.
These days, the village is getting more and more lively. For the convenience of businessmen from all over the north and south, the villagers paved the road with finely crushed stones, sprinkled sand in the gaps, mixed with glutinous rice paste, and compacted the road with stone rollers. It is also a good road that is not easy to be muddy.
Because there are many people who come to Shenjia Village to buy goods, and the order will not be completed in a day or two, the problem of housing and food for the merchants cannot be ignored.Shen Li asked his father to ask the head of the village for help, bought several acres of wasteland that could not be farmed, and built several inns on the wasteland in the village. , the following is divided into three parts, the dining hall, the kitchen, and the single room.
The craftsmen from the county were invited to come and build, and they were entertained with delicious food and drink. The construction period was not delayed, and the inn was built in the middle of March.Disgusting that the bareness is ugly, many bright flowers were planted outside, and a wooden flower garden was also made.The pines and cypresses and bamboos are well pruned and planted in a proper location. From the outside, they look no worse than the inns in the county town.
The next thing is to recruit people. The inn needs shopkeepers, accountants, waiters, waiters, and cooks.Each inn needs to recruit at least a dozen people to operate. The flow of people is relatively large, and the inn must have a lot of service personnel.
Shen Li recruits people regardless of gender, as long as they have a skill, they can go in and work.Of course, unmarried girls are very likely to be stopped by their families before they come out to find a job, so basically all the applicants are married women.Shen Li will still pay attention to the influence. The employees of an inn must be of the same gender as much as possible. Of course, the old man and the old woman don't matter.Only when there are no bad influences, he will let the opposite sex work in an inn.
Both the land and the house were bought by Shen Li, so naturally this inn also belonged to Shen Li, but Shen Li never thought of running these inns by himself.One is because he is not a professional, and the other is that he doesn't want to worry too much.So when things are arranged, leave these inns to his father to worry about, and just check the accounts by himself.
The people in the village with little land property want their young offspring to come to the inn as a waiter, or as a waiter in the inn.At this time, there was no such thing as child labor, and the family members had to come.Some children looked dull and their voices were not too loud, so Shen Li didn't want to use them, but after thinking about it, the village recruited people, and there were no particularly flexible ones, so they needed to be taught slowly.What's more, the children in the village know the basics, and there is nothing wrong with using them.Seeing that his strength is not bad and he is also very hardworking, he accepted it almost.
It's just that Shen Li didn't expect that the cooking chef who hosted banquets for his family would also come here to find work. He has a son and apprentice under his command, and now his son just graduated from the teacher, and he cooked a table of dishes. Shen Li tasted it and thought it was okay. , let the father and son be in charge of an inn, and the apprentices will help.
The cooks of the other inns were found by Shen Li in other villages, and there were not many good cooks in this village.And I have no enthusiasm for being a cook.
The accountant mainly looks for someone who has studied and can count. The accountant can calculate slowly, but he must not calculate fake accounts. It is absolutely impossible for Shen Li to find someone who is not honest to add trouble to him.He can do calculations quickly, and he can see clearly if there are false accounts.
People from the outer village got the news a little later than those from the village, but it was not too late. For the first time, the villagers hated that there were always so many people from other villages doing business in their village. When they spread the news, too many people would come. Competitors, in short, hardly five days, the recruitment has been completed.
People in the village now have more and more side jobs.Help people send messages, deliver goods, and even start a laundry business.The inn is not enough to live in. Those who don’t have a daughter at home will clean up the guest room and rent it out to the merchants. The price of staying for a day is cheaper than the inn.
The little ladies in Shenjia Village have their own jobs to do.
"Aniang went out and took the soap order from Mr. Li Xiaolang. If I make ten soaps a day, I can get fifteen cents. If I make more, I can earn more. I thought, I want to save my own dowry , make more money, and buy land, so that my husband’s family won’t dare to underestimate me.” The girl was only 13 years old, and upon hearing these words, she knew that her mother had educated her on weekdays, and she knew what was good or bad, so she naturally listened.
It turned out that when she couldn't make any money, she ate her brother's and sister-in-law's meals for free, and stayed at home uneasy.Now that I have made money, I can buy some food and play for my brother and sister-in-law, and the two sides can get along better.It should be like this, who wants to raise rice worms?Although she used to do work at home, she didn't do as much work as her sister-in-law. After all, she couldn't earn something for the family.Her mother's health is not good, and she still lacks some medicine to make up for it. My brother has four or five children, so my mother's medicine can't take care of it.Now that she is making money, at least she has cured her mother's illness. After she leaves the cabinet, she will feel more at ease in her husband's house.
"My family has bought land for me, but I feel that idleness is idleness. I just make some soap and soap like everyone else, and then earn money to buy cloth for clothes and silk flowers."
"You are really stinky, hee hee!"
The two girls rolled into a ball, laughing and joking, and the villagers who passed by their window couldn't help smiling.
Throughout the spring, Shenjia Village seemed to be in full swing.Even though it is already late at night, there are still many porters who come here to pick tofu and soap.They took orders from the city, where tofu and soap were in the business, and if the spring plowing was too busy and they didn't have time to pick up the goods or place an order, they would assign these jobs to these porters.Now the road is a little easier to walk, but the distance is long, Shen Li can still see some blood stains on their rotten straw sandals, which is because the blisters on their feet have been worn out.
"Father, I don't want to sit in the basket anymore. I'll come down and walk by myself." The doll in the basket was only four years old, and he must have been tired from walking. His father carried him into the basket and carried him away.At this time, the child became sensible very early, probably because he knew that his father was carrying him, and he was very tired from walking, so he made a fuss.
Shen Li heard about this picker. His wife gave birth to a child and died of bleeding. He is only 30 years old now, and he does not want to marry another wife. He only cares about the child's growth.The porter business is getting better and better now. If you go back and forth, bring some goods yourself, and then help the family to bring goods, you can earn sixty or seventy yuan.
What kind of work can earn sixty or seventy Wen now?No matter how tired he was, he had to do this. While he was still able to work, he could earn money earlier, build a house for his son, and then earn gift money to marry his son to a wife. He would be worthy of his dead mother-in-law all his life.
"Mr. Li Xiaolang! This time, I want soap for 30 yuan and tofu for 100 yuan. My boss wants soap for 300 yuan, soap for [-] yuan, and tofu for [-] yuan."
Shen Li saw that the rope on his burden was severely frayed, and hurried to the house to get a thick hemp rope for him to replace.
"Mr. Xiao Lang is still careful! Thank you, Mr. Xiao Lang! Oh, if the rope breaks halfway, how should I explain to my boss!" The man was annoyed at his carelessness, and looked scared.
Shen Li took a piece of rice cake and gave it to the child. The child blinked, looked at his father, and took a small snack after seeing his father nodded, looking very cherished.
Shen Li smiled and said: "You can't treat yourself badly even if you make money. This child looks sensible, so you should take care of it." Then he pointed to the pile of goods, "There are too many of these things. You still have the child with you. Don't worry about it at night." It’s safe, and I’m also afraid that you’ll be exhausted and it won’t be worth it then. Why don’t you bring some less and come back tomorrow morning, I’ll keep these for you.”
That's right, his shoulders are probably swollen. Since the beginning of spring, he has been carrying heavy objects on his shoulders. If he doesn't stop now, he might have to go to the pharmacy to spend money, which is not worth it.So the man thanked him, picked up half of the things, and went home.
There are many such families, all of whom have shoulders bent due to years of hard work.Shen Li looked at the dim starlight covering the father and son, feeling inexplicably sad.
At this time, the poor families with a radius of more than [-] miles came to Shenjia Village to find work in order to keep food for their families. The journey they traveled was long, but the road paved by the villagers was fairly flat. The village was brightly lit and the moon was shining in the sky. Bright, so no matter how hard it is, you can always get good results.
Who dares to inquire?The land property is under Shen Li's name, and the land he has obtained now is the first in Qinghe County, accounting for more than half of the land in Qinghe County.
