"I think it's feasible. You were born into a merchant family, so you know a little bit about business. Your family can't be cut off from income.
Look at how Xiaoge spends money lavishly. Isn't it just to let her use the money to open a shop?
The money used to open the shop was definitely not as much as the money she spent on buying the jewelry yesterday.
Instead of this, you might as well be her aunt and help her out, or start a business, which will provide that girl with a way to make money.
Otherwise, she might accidentally spend all the money she has and then regret it later."
Chaoge was quite surprised to hear Yunchang say this.
After all, for countless generations in the Yun family, except Yun Xuan, all of them have been working the land for a living, and no one has done business.
Even in Yunjia Village, there are only one or two families doing small businesses.
She thought that when she made this suggestion, the conservative Yunchang would oppose it, but she didn't expect that this father had a very high level of ideological awareness!
However, she would spend all her money if she did not do so. How long would it take for her to finish spending the 45,000 taels of gold?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
“Opening a grocery store wouldn’t be a problem for me.
But, but my husband and I have only saved more than twenty taels of silver in total. As two families are working together, how can we let you pay the money alone? But I still plan to prepare the saved silver for my husband to use for the imperial examination next year.
If my husband passes the exam, he will have to go to Beijing to take the exam. I am afraid that if I take out this money, I will lose money and it will only delay my husband..."
"Aunt Si, what I mean is that you provide the manpower and I provide the money. I will teach you some business tips and you can run the store according to my instructions. We will split the profits in half.
The reason why I proposed to start a business together is to give you another source of income. After all, Fourth Uncle is determined to study, so I have to trouble you, Fourth Aunt, first. "
"If that's the case, Fourth Aunt would love it, but I don't dare to split the profits in half.
You might as well ask Fourth Aunt to be your shopkeeper and just pay her a monthly salary.
Don't worry, although Fourth Aunt can't read many words, she can use an abacus and do accounting, so there will be no problem."
Qin and Yunxuan naturally knew that Chaoge was trying to find a way to help them indirectly.
When people are poor, they have low aspirations. Yunxuan always reminds himself not to forget the humiliation he suffered outside the Qin family grocery store yesterday.
The more he was looked down upon, the harder he would work to give his wife, children, and the Yun family a good life, and never let others trample on or look down on his family again.
Even though you are poor, if you still want to stand up in front of your relatives who really care about you, that is not called striving for honor, that is called overestimating your own abilities, that is called not knowing how lucky you are.
Chaoge thought about it and felt that this 50/50 profit was indeed a bit too much. If he continued to operate according to the management methods of his previous life, the profit of this supermarket would surely be considerable.
In this way, even if they gave Qin a little less, their family's life would be much better than it is now.
Even if they continue to expand the store in the future, even if Yunxuan passes the imperial examination one day, they will have saved enough money to operate in the officialdom.
"Fourth Aunt, tell me the truth, how much net profit did your Qin family's grocery store make in a year?"
"About fifty taels, not including the expenses for the shop assistants and the family.
If these are excluded, the grocery store can save about 25 to 35 taels of silver in a year."
Qin did not treat Chaoge as an outsider and told him the Qin family's financial situation without hesitation.
Chaoge was not surprised when he heard this, but he couldn't help but sigh at the gap between people who do business in this era and people who grow crops in the countryside.
For a country family, even if there are five or six people in the family, after working hard for a whole year and living frugally, and deducting miscellaneous taxes, if they can save two taels of silver, it is considered very good.
No wonder these people have their eyes on their noses!
"In that case, let's split the profits 70% to 30%. If the store in this county does well, I don't mind paying more to open one in another county or Taichuan Prefecture.
When we have more stores, your income will be very considerable."
As soon as Chaoge said this, Qin and Yunxuan's eyes widened!
"Ah, this, this store can also be opened in Taichuanzhou?
No, no, no, we are unfamiliar with that place and will be excluded if we go there. Besides, we just run a grocery store, there is no need for anything.
Don't even mention 30% profit, 10% is good enough.
Among us women, how many can earn money? If you do this, Fourth Aunt will know that you are deliberately helping Fourth Uncle and me, and we are already very grateful.
Fourth Aunt couldn't even think of opening so many stores. Even Fourth Aunt's father, no, even him, he had been running a grocery store for more than 20 years and had never thought of opening one in other places.
We split the profit 90% to 10%, and the profit of 10% is much better than the monthly salary of those guys. If you don't agree, then Fourth Aunt really can't take advantage of you."
"Well, when the shop opens, you will know how much work you will have to do every day.
Yicheng is being too distant. Even if I invite outsiders, I won't treat them unfairly. Besides, you are my aunt.
For the sake of my fourth uncle, you have broken off with your natal family, so I cannot treat you unfairly.
How about this, 20:80, and don't be so formal with me. If you continue to be formal, I will ask someone else to help me take care of it. That's as long as you are at ease.
As for opening stores in other places, we will talk about it later. Let’s open this store in Lingfeng County first.”
Qin looked at Yunxuan. After all, she couldn't make the decision on such a big matter by herself.
What she was actually more afraid of was that if she went out and showed herself in public, Yunxuan, a scholar, would lose face.
And no matter from which angle, they were taking advantage of Chaoge, and she was even more undecided.
"Then listen to Xiao Ge, thank you for your hard work, I will study hard and strive to pass the exam as soon as possible, so that you and the child will not have to suffer so much."
After hearing this, Qin felt relieved and nodded gratefully to Chaoge.
"Since your fourth uncle has agreed, I am naturally willing to do it."
"Okay then, it's decided.
By the way, when I went to the money shop just now, I happened to go to the pawnshop and visited a courtyard.
I don't know much about the market price of yard sales in this county, so after dinner, my fourth uncle and dad will go with us."
"puff"!
Upon hearing this, Yunchang and Yunxuan accidentally spit out the wine in their mouths because of Chaoge's words!
Fortunately, the two of them reacted quickly enough to avoid ruining the entire table of food.
Yun Chang quickly wiped the wine off his face, turned around and looked at Chao Ge with wide eyes: "Buy a yard? Buy a yard in this county town!?
You, you don't plan to go back to the village?"
