Chapter 96 Assigning Tasks
Lu Dasong really couldn't understand why, even if you were to start a small business, you had to start with small capital.
It's like setting up a stall or selling small trinkets as a peddler.
They rented a shop in the county town directly, which required a huge initial investment. If they lost money, all the money would be wasted.
Lu Dasong wanted to advise him, "Second brother, opening a shop and doing business is not so easy. You should think it through carefully."
Lu Erbai laughed and said, "I know, don't worry, big brother, Er Ya has the skills."
craft?
He asked, "What kind of craft?"
"Image design".
Lu Dasong's eyes widened. "What is that?" He'd never even heard of it.
Shu Yu really couldn't explain it, so she could only say to him, "Uncle, the house has already been rented and the rent has been paid, so it's impossible to cancel it now. As for how to make money, you'll understand once the shop opens."
Lu Dasong still felt it was unreliable, but the old lady suddenly slapped him, "Alright, if Er Ya says it's no problem, then it's no problem. You've never even left the county town, you're not as knowledgeable as Er Ya, what do you know?"
Lu Dasong, “…” This hits home.
He waved his hand, "Forget it, it's come to this point, just give it a try. If you need any help, just let me know."
The old lady scoffed, "What's the use of telling you? Your wife won't be happy to help the second son."
Lu Dasong stood up awkwardly and said, "Well, I'll also go to my third brother's house to check on the mule cart."
Actually, he had been itching to go all the time. Apart from Li, who was washing clothes by the river, all his children had gone to his third brother's house. Even though Da Niu and Lan Hua were there, he was still worried and had to keep an eye on them.
After saying that, he left, giving them space to discuss the matter privately.
Shu Yu then said to the old lady and the others, "The shop has been rented for two taels of silver a month. It's on Ning Shui Street, and I've paid half a year's rent."
"Ningshui Street?" Lu Erbai frowned. "The rent on Ningshui Street shouldn't be this cheap. Er Ya, is there something wrong with that shop?"
"There's no problem." Shu Yu didn't hide anything from them and told them that the shop was a favor given by Master Yu.
The old lady snorted coldly after hearing this, "He took too much silver. If he hadn't wanted twins, the old woman from the Ruan family wouldn't have had such a bad idea. It's fortunate that Er Ya is here, otherwise I would have hanged myself at the gate of the Yu family."
Lu Erbai quickly said, "Mother, don't talk nonsense."
Shu Yu held the old lady's hand and said, "The rent is a bit cheap, so let's not tell anyone to avoid causing trouble."
"We understand."
"Next, we need to tidy up the shop. I've already asked Steward Yu to help move all the extra cabinets away. We'll find a craftsman to change the layout, and then we can open for business." Shu Yu said, turning to Madam Ruan, "Mother, you'll have a lot to do next."
Ruan was overjoyed, "Er Ya, you tell me, I'm sure I can do it well."
"I've drawn a few pictures of clothes... They're a bit rough, but they're pretty much the idea. Mom, could you make a small pattern of the clothes based on my pictures? Once it's perfect, you can make a full-size version. As for the size... just make it according to my measurements."
Ruan was slightly excited, "Okay, tell me in detail. Other mothers can't help much, but making clothes is definitely no problem. I can start today."
