At noon, I could finally take a break, and Ke Xin also finished calculating the account book.
"Overall, business has been pretty good this month, especially during the Lunar New Year period, when every day is very busy. Just be moderate and don't burn yourself out trying to make money!"
The two sisters-in-law laughed.
"Don't worry, we're not stupid. Just rest when you're tired!"
Both sisters-in-law are capable, although my mother's family... Ke Xin put aside all distractions and checked the account book: "This month, after deducting the cost of flour and sugar, I made 147 taels of silver!"
"Let's say it's one hundred and forty taels, and the seven taels of silver will be the capital!" After saying that, Ke Xin took out seven silver ingots of ten taels each, and the rest were loose change.
"There are seventy taels left, thirty-five taels each for each of you!"
After waiting for so long, they finally got the money they had worked so hard for, and they made so much at once. The two of them were so happy that they smiled from ear to ear and began to show courtesy to each other.
But the two of them thought Kexin had made a mistake in the calculation, so Ye Xia reminded them: "Although the eggs were taken from home, they should still be included in the calculation. We will go back and give the money to Auntie San."
If you want to give money, give it to her!
The eggs were laid by the hens in the space. She collected them from the space every day and asked Xiaowu to bring them back when he delivered the strawberries.
Ke Xin waved her hand: "No need, the eggs at home will go bad if you don't finish them, so you can just use them. You can buy more when we're gone!"
After saying this, the sister-in-law felt bad and thought about making a set of clothes for her third aunt and uncle to express her gratitude.
Then, divide the money.
Ye Xia said: "You are the eldest sister-in-law, you go first!"
Cao Zhaodi was embarrassed: "You are the younger one, you go first."
Ke Xin looked at the two loving sisters-in-law and smiled, "I'll divide it between you, you can take it together!"
The two sisters-in-law smiled at each other. This was a good idea. After all, no one was embarrassed to take it first. After a while, Ke Xin divided it up and placed two portions in front of her, each weighing thirty-five taels.
"Take it yourselves!"
The two sisters-in-law each took a small pile. It didn’t look like much, but it was really heavy in their hands. They were as happy as little children, smiling from ear to ear.
"Alright, keep working hard. This New Year period is the peak season, and next month's income will definitely be more than it is now. I'm counting on you, keep going!"
Give them candy first, then a dose of this stimulant, so that the sisters-in-law will work hard and make money with peace of mind.
After they collected the silver, they said in unison: "Come on!"
When Ke Xin left the house, the roast duck restaurant opposite had already hung up a closing sign, which meant that they were done with business. However, seeing that the people who came to buy roast duck finally left disappointed, Ke Xin felt that this roast duck restaurant might as well open a branch.
Jasmine lifted the cotton curtain, and someone called out from inside the house: "The morning meal is sold out. Come back in the afternoon if you want to eat!"
Ke Xin looked at the two of them sitting exhausted on the small stool with their heads drooping weakly, and she suddenly felt a little distressed. These boys were obviously only seventeen or eighteen years old. If it were in the past, they would still be in school at this age.
"Brother Zhong, Brother Cai, it's me!"
When the two heard Jiuer's voice, they all looked up, tired but surprised: "Little sister is here, sit down!"
After Zhong Ge finished speaking, he handed the stool under his buttocks to Xiao Jiu, but she refused: "I have been sitting in Liu Ji Dim Sum Shop for the whole morning, you sit down, brother!"
When Cai Ge heard this, she realized that it had been a full month and it was time to divide the accounts. Thinking of this, she was like a warrior revived with full blood, and said with endless strength: "I'll go get the accounts for you, wait for me!"
After saying that, the man ran out of the house and went to the backyard.
In the shop, Ke Xin looked around the room. Although there were two boys selling roast duck, the room was still very clean.
"Brother Zhong, when I got here I saw you guys were so busy. I think why don't you hire two people to take care of the slaughtering and hair removal, and you two to take care of the pickling and roasting. Otherwise, selling it this way is really too tiring for you!"
Jiang Zhong chuckled, "I talked about this with Brother Cai today. Now we can sell about 20 ducks every morning, and more in the afternoon, more than 30. We have to kill at least 60 ducks every day, and even that's not enough. Look, quite a few have already left!"
"I was thinking of going back to discuss this with you tonight!"
Jiang Cai came over at this moment, holding the account book and handed it to Ke Xin. "It's been exactly one month as of yesterday. When we first opened, we could sell 20 to 30 a day. Later, it gradually increased, and now we sell 60 a day."
After listening to Brother Zhong's words, Ke Xin now knows that her two brothers can sell a maximum of 60 pieces a day, and they have to work from before dawn until midnight to finish.
Because Brother Cai can write and do math, it won't be so difficult for Ke Xin to reconcile the accounts, and the calculations are done quickly. Looking at the net profit this month, it is still considerable.
"This month, after deducting costs, we made a total of 180 taels. According to our previous agreement, I'll take half, 90 taels, and the remaining 90 taels will be divided between the two of you."
After saying that, she took away her husband's share, and the two brothers each got 45 taels of the remaining 90 taels. They didn't refuse like Sister Fu and Sister Hui did, but they were still shy and accepted it.
"If you're too busy, hire some people. Sell more during the New Year holidays. After the New Year, there will be a slow season!"
After receiving the money, Brother Zhong and Brother Cai began to respond.
"I see that the boys in our village are idle, why not let them do something?"
