Chapter 191 Is this a gift of money?
Lou Qianqian shook her head when she heard this: "I don't know, but I hate him very much now. I hope he gets his comeuppance and loses everything."
Xu Zhiyi: "Remember, make yourself stronger, make yourself stand higher than your scumbag father, and then take back everything you deserve. When he sees you, he won't even have the qualifications to curry favor with you. This is the most heartbreaking revenge."
Lou Qianqian: "Sister Zhiyi, you are right. One day, I will make him kneel down and beg my mother, but my mother and I will not give him even the slightest chance!"
The two chatted for half an hour, Luo Jinqiu cooked the meal, and everyone had lunch together.
After dinner, Luo Jinqiu took out her embroidery again and gave Xu Zhiyi two handkerchiefs and two purses.
Xu Zhiyi looked at the embroidery on it, which was lifelike and beautiful, and couldn't help but praise it: "The embroidery on it is much better than most of the ones I have seen in clothing stores!"
When Luo Jinqiu heard what Xu Zhiyi said, he felt a little embarrassed: "No, I just studied for a few years!"
Lou Qianqian, who was standing by, was very proud when she heard this: "Sister Zhiyi, my mother was taught by my grandmother, and my grandmother's embroidery master even embroidered clothes for the queen in the palace."
After hearing this, Xu Zhiyi looked at Luo Jinqiu and asked curiously, "Aunt Luo, can you make clothes?"
Lou Qianqian on the side answered quickly: "Yes, Sister Zhiyi, the clothes made by my mother are different from others and very beautiful."
"How can I be so amazing? I just added some of my own ideas to the clothes of other people's clothing stores!"
Xu Zhiyi couldn't help but exclaim when she heard this. This Luo Jinqiu has the talent of a designer! If so, she can design clothes for people individually. If she can do this, she will be famous in this industry. The ladies and wives of these wealthy families are all potential customers!
"Aunt Luo, I think you can make clothes for people! You can do it for the public, or one-on-one. What I mean is that as long as the money is enough, I can come up with a unique style of clothes for people."
Hearing this, Luo Jinqiu sighed, with a bit of shame on her face: "Miss Zhiyi, this... this will probably cost a lot of money to do, right? I don't have the financial resources to open a shop right now..."
Xu Zhiyi: "You can rent a small shop to start. I can lend you the money first, or I can provide the money and you can provide the skills."
"Miss Zhiyi, how can this be possible? Wouldn't you be at a huge loss? My craftsmanship is only worth a few silver coins!"
"I'm serious. I'm also quite interested. How about considering it? How about we open a shop together?"
Xu Zhiyi felt more and more that it was feasible. Even if Luo Jinqiu didn't have any new styles in mind, she did! There were still many more. With her memory of modern times, what era of clothing did she not have?
When Luo Jinqiu heard that Xu Zhiyi's words didn't seem to be a joke, he couldn't help but think about the degree of feasibility.
"Aunt Luo, we can try renting a shop."
Lou Qianqian, who was standing by, also became interested and tugged at Luo Jinqiu's sleeve: "Mom, I think your needlework is very good. Even the embroiderers from wealthy families may not be as good as you, really."
Hearing this, Luo Jinqiu nodded: "Miss Zhiyi, if you must bet with me, I am willing to do so."
Xu Zhiyi: "Okay, it's a deal. You go find a shop to rent. When the shop opens, we'll split the profits 50-50."
"No, no, no, Miss Zhiyi, this is too much. Let's split it 20-80, and I'll take the smaller portion."
Xu Zhiyi: "How can this be possible? You guys will be in charge of the store in the future. I might even plan to open a pastry shop in the future. So I'll be the hands-off manager on your side. So, 40% to 60%, no less!"
Luo Jinqiu: "30-70, I'll give you 30, you give me 70, that's the maximum I can accept, I won't accept any more, you don't have to give in anymore!"
"Okay, I sell cakes in the town every day. When you find a shop, just come to East Street to find me."
Xu Zhiyi chatted for another half an hour before leaving and heading home.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the town gate, he met Su and Su Ze who came to the town to look for someone.
Su: "Zhiyi! You scared me to death. I was waiting for you to come home today, but it was already past noon and you still hadn't come back. I was so worried that you had run into trouble in town, so I had to come with your uncle to look for you."
Xu Zhiyi: "Mom, uncle, please get on the mule cart quickly, I will explain to you"
After the two came up, Xu Zhiyi told them what happened today, including his intention to open a shop.
Su Ze: "I didn't expect that Madam Lou...Madam Luo would meet such an unfaithful man."
Su: "Alas, I heard her occasionally mention her husband along the way, and I thought he doted on his wife and daughter."
"But Zhiyi, this shop is not that simple, you have to think it through."
Xu Zhiyi: "Mom, don't worry! I know what's going on. Even if we lose money, the most we lose is the money we spend on renting the shop. To do business, you have to be bold. We have the money to rent a shop, and Aunt Luo has a pair of good hands."
"If we can really make this shop a success, we can gain a foothold in this town!"
"Besides, today, Shopkeeper Lin from Su Ji Lou came to discuss the pastry business with me. No matter which one he chooses in the end, it will be beneficial to me."
"If I buy out, the worst that can happen is that I can try making other food or pastries, and then open a pastry shop."
Upon hearing this, Su did not object because she knew that Xu Zhiyi had her own ideas and they could all be realized.
After Xu Zhiyi returned home, he recorded today's accounts as usual. The number of advance orders these days was quite large, and everyone got up in the early hours of the morning to make pastries!
On average, I can sell about 300 bowl-shaped cakes every day, with a profit of about 600 wen a day.
After calculating the expenses for building the house, furniture and other things, the remaining money, including accessories, would be around three hundred taels of silver.
With a fluttering sound, Xu Zhiyi, who was thinking about something, heard the sound and looked towards the door. It turned out to be the eagle!!!
"What's going on? Why are you back again?"
Xu Zhiyi went over and grabbed it, only to find that there was a note tied to it?
When I untied it and opened it, I found it was actually a banknote! !
Wow, so rich! Five hundred taels of silver! !
Then a small note opened:
Thank you for saving my life, Cang Yun. These five hundred taels of silver are Cang Yun's reward to the benefactor, and also my gratitude for getting me back what I lost! Thank you very much!
After Xu Zhiyi finished reading the note, he looked at the banknote in his hand again, and then patted Cang Yun on the back: "Cang Yun? Your master is so powerful? Five hundred taels of silver! How generous!"
Unfortunately, Cang Yun couldn't speak. In fact, its owner had been eating more vegetarian food in this family, and he missed it for a while. His owner thought that the family who saved it was so poor that they could only eat wild vegetables every day, so he asked it to send the silver notes over.
