They've Split the Family, So What If They Get Poorer, It's None of My Business

Transmigrated only to be buried? To voluntarily commit suttee for her husband? Xu Zhichun, terrified, lifted the white shroud and sat up, tearfully telling everyone that King Yama wouldn't take...

Chapter 255 Liang Xiaoman’s Master

Chapter 255 Liang Xiaoman's Master

The market value of Mr. Qin's shop is about five hundred taels, and Xu Zhichun said he would pay according to the market price.

Master Qin categorically disagreed and waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, no, Madam Xu is Madam Xu, and the market price is the market price. If we sell it to Madam Xu at the market price, our friendship will not agree. That is absolutely unacceptable! How about this, Madam Xu can add another twenty or thirty taels."

Xu Zhichun finally added another hundred taels, buying the shop for four hundred taels.

Seeing her firm attitude, Mr. Qin could only smile.

Madam Xu is a person who can be dealt with.

Xu Zhichun also felt that the Qin family could get along.

Running in both directions belongs to yes.

After taking over the shop, Xu Zhichun told Zeng Xiaoyan and Aunt Zhu'er about it. Zeng Xiaoyan and Aunt Zhu'er were also very happy.

"We'll continue to divide the profits the same way we did before. Although I don't have to set up a stall every day, there are still many other things to do. I can't handle it all by myself."

After Xu Zhichun explained it to them, Zeng Xiaoyan and Aunt Zhuer agreed.

But both of them felt embarrassed. After all, Xu Zhichun had invested all the money in buying the shop and the land to expand the konjac cultivation. The two of them only did some simple handy work, and they each took two percent of the profit. It was a bit too much. Besides this, the same thing happened with the ice jelly.

After discussing it privately, the two of them were determined not to take that much, saying that 10% each would be enough.

Zeng Xiaoyan smiled and said, "Before, it could be considered a small business. We shared several hundred coins a day, which was a lot, but the total wasn't much. Now that you've bought a shop and a lot of land, planning to reclaim wasteland and grow konjac, I'm afraid you're going to set up a workshop, right? The profit will definitely be more than a few hundred coins a day. How can we just take so much for nothing? Even if we help with some work, it's definitely not worth that much."

Even though Zeng Xiaoyan was not well-received at her mother's house, she had learned a few things from what she had seen and heard. When Xu Zhichun expanded the scale, she immediately saw the trick.

Aunt Zhu'er thought what she said made sense, so she came with her to find Xu Zhichun.

"That's right, Xiaoyan is right. Zhichun, you've made such a big splash now and are even opening a workshop. You must be making a lot of money. We've only helped a little bit. You've given too much!"

"Really? Aren't we taking advantage? I don't feel safe taking this money."

"I don't think it's good either."

Xu Zhichun felt a little blocked in the heart, and warmth flowed through his heart.

She wanted to say something, but felt it seemed too pretentious.

Finally, we agreed with them that she would get 70% of the profits and the other two would each get 15%, but this was just the profit sharing. If they took charge in the future, their wages would be calculated separately.

Only then did Zeng Xiaoyan and Aunt Zhuer agree.

Liang Xiaoman knew that Xu Zhichun was looking for someone to manage the shop in the city, so he asked Yang Xiaoan to find her, saying that his master was a good person and maybe he could give it a try.

Xu Zhichun hurried to Liang Lizheng's house to ask Liang Xiaoman in detail.

Liang Xiaoman said, "My master has been very careful and attentive in guiding me for the past three or four years. He has never tortured me or taken his anger out on me. When I left the Qin Family Trading Company, he went back to Qingyang County. If Aunt Zhichun wants to hire him, I can write a letter and have someone deliver it to him. Aunt Zhichun can meet my master first."

When talking about his master, Liang Xiaoman's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but show admiration. It can be seen that he really respects his master.

After several years of apprenticeship, he is still like this. His master must be really good.

Xu Zhichun smiled and said, "But this is just a small shop. I'm afraid your master may not be happy to stay here."

Liang Xiaoman said quickly, "No, my master has long felt that working at the Qin Family Business is too tiring. Some people are difficult to get along with, and he's wanted to leave a long time ago. He wants to stay in a simpler, more leisurely place like this. He should feel comfortable here with Aunt Zhichun."

Well, that's really worth a try.

Xu Zhichun really needed a seasoned manager like Liang Xiaoman's master, Zhong Changkuan, to take charge. Her place was simple, to be sure, without the intrigues of established businesses, but it was also relaxed. It was certainly relaxed now, but it wasn't certain how it would be in the future.

Anyway, if the person is reliable and suitable, just trick him into coming over first.

"Okay, tell me his address and I'll write a letter and have someone deliver it."

"Oh, okay, okay!"

Various relatives came and went in Liangjia Village, and everyone wanted to ask for some sweet potatoes and potatoes to take back for planting. As in-laws, there was no doubt about it. Some families charged a little capital, and some gave them away for free, with several kilograms being given away.

As for other relatives and friends, it depends on the situation.

Except for those who have kept enough for themselves, they certainly won’t give it away for free. You have to pay for it and you can’t buy it on credit.

The saying "owing money and not paying it back is a scoundrel" is as true as it was in ancient times. Some people even admit they owe money but refuse to pay it back - they admit they owe it when asked, but say they don't have the money to pay it back when asked again.

Sweet potatoes and potatoes are precious things, so it is understandable that they are unwilling to buy them on credit, and no one can blame them.

If you really want to criticize them, they are just the worst relatives. At most they will have a quarrel, and whether they will continue to have any contact with each other in the future is another matter.

Recently, there have been reports of quarrels and disputes in the village from time to time.

Selling to relatives and friends, at the official price of ten cents per catty, each family would feel that they had suffered a huge loss. This was because the landlords and merchants in the city also sent their stewards to the village to buy the goods. There were too many people and too little food, so they had to beg for money to make a living. People didn't mind the few cents, so the price they offered was much higher than ten cents. It was thirteen, fifteen, and within three or four days the price had risen to twenty cents.

Each family would hide their products and be reluctant to sell them in large quantities to relatives and friends. Selling them to merchants would double their income, so who would be stupid?

The head of Loujia Village finally arrived with several people, and they were the only ones who knocked on the door of Xu Zhichun's house.

What he said was naturally also for sweet potatoes and potatoes.

At this moment, they were extremely grateful that Xu Zhichun bought the land in the village, otherwise they would have no reason to visit him.

Lou Lizheng spoke very politely, but there were one or two people who were impatient and said something unpleasant, implying that "you must give us potatoes and sweet potatoes if you farm in our village, otherwise it will be hard to say", "Otherwise you are not kind!", "Otherwise no one can guarantee whether your fields will be good in the future", but before they could finish their words, they were interrupted by Lou Lizheng.

Xu Zhichun's expression changed subtly in an instant. Although he didn't say anything, he gave Lou Li face and didn't argue with him. His attitude was obviously more distant than before.

Lou Lizheng glared at the two men warningly, and then said a lot of nice things to Xu Zhichun in a very friendly manner.

Xu Zhichun smiled and replied in a neutral tone, "Those fertile fields are good, but I'm actually worried I won't be able to take care of them. If one day I really can't take care of them, it's hard to say if I can just sell them off."
