Chapter 243 I never thought about it
Looking at the dazzling night market and eating the mouth-watering delicious snacks, Pang Ni’s satisfied eyes turned into crescents. She held Pomegranate’s hand and said with a smile: " Pomegranate, I can tell from a young age that you are a talented person! Look, I saw it right, right?”
Pomegranate couldn’t help laughing, “Yes, yes, what kind of eyes do we have, Those are the eyes of a god, and they can definitely spot people right away."
Pang Ni smiled happily and said in a proud tone, "Because I can spot people right, where am I now? Such a lively and bustling night market! Eating such delicious food, no girl in the village can compare with me!”
“What else do you want to eat?”
"That, that, and that over there, oh, I want to eat them all!" Pang Ni puffed out her cheeks like a happy mouse that fell into a rice vat.
She spent a huge sum of money to buy a birthday present for Pomegranate this afternoon, a bracelet inlaid with gold, which cost seven taels of silver!
Now I still have a few taels of silver left on me, so I can buy pomegranates for her. She smiles with her eyes narrowed.
"Pomegranate, these flowers are beautiful! Let's pick two each and I'll buy them for you! And this wooden comb is really beautiful too! Let's take one each!"
The two of us will wait for a while. From the food stalls to the gadget stalls, I had a great time shopping.
I didn’t have dinner, so I walked around the night market, and my stomach was already very bloated.
Wandering until late at night, her legs and feet were aching, so Pang Ni reluctantly took Pomegranate back.
Pomegranate saw her eager eyes and couldn't help but said: "Next time I have free time, I will take you to Fucheng to play."
Although Pang Ni was moved, she still shook her head. Without a promise, a trip to Fucheng would be too expensive. She couldn't always spend money on pomegranates. It was too embarrassing.
She didn’t say this thought out loud, but she couldn’t help but sigh, “If only I could make money like you, Pomegranate!”
That way, she would be happy even if Shiliu invited her to visit Fucheng again.
Pomegranate listened to her emotion and turned her eyes slightly, "Pang Ni, do you want to do business?"
"Business?" Pang Ni's eyes flicked to Pomegranate, "I can What business are you doing? I don’t know anything!”
“Who said you don’t know anything? I just thought, Pang Ni. You have great potential for doing business!”
She is not saying this to coax people, she really thinks that Fat Ni is good, she is outstanding, she always smiles when she meets everyone, and she is also good-looking. Pleasant, she is still young now, but when she gets older, she will definitely be a virtuous little woman praised by her neighbors for being able to run a house.
If she is doing business, she must be a well-rounded boss lady who is good at dancing.
Pang Ni smiled sheepishly and couldn't help but hold Pomegranate's arm tightly, "Good Pomegranate, what kind of business do you think I can do? I still have more than three taels of silver left, so I use it as capital. , what kind of business can I do? I'm thinking about setting up a food stall. I like it. I like to eat, and it will be very useful!"
Pomegranate listened to her and thought about Luoshui City. In the busy street, I have the regulations in my mind.
"I will teach you how to make two kinds of snacks. You can set up a stall in Luoshui City and start slowly from a young age. What do you think?"
Pang Ni heard this and gave it a try. Hugging Pomegranate, "Oh! Pomegranate, you are so kind to me! When I go back and earn money, I will invite you to Fucheng to visit the night market!"
Pomegranate smiled and said, "Okay!"
As he spoke, he returned to the house in Lihua Hutong. The furniture here was complete. The Ge Quan family who had bought it in the afternoon quickly swept out of the main courtyard. The two wing rooms are covered with newly purchased clean bedding, which is perfect for staying here tonight.
It will be very convenient when you come to Fucheng in the future and you won’t have to stay in an inn anymore.
Pomegranate is thinking that next time she will bring her whole family to Fucheng to stay for a while.
After a good night's sleep, Pomegranate went to Tongwanzhai to take inventory early the next morning. It has been three months since the Children's Playhouse in Fucheng opened. A lot of toys, large and small, have been sold. Almost all the complete sets that Fucheng can afford have been bought. After the initial overtime work, the carpenters are now finally able to It's a bit more relaxed.
But it’s not that relaxing.
Wu Yi mentioned that a businessman from Zhangnan County and Hepinghe County came yesterday and wanted to order some toys and sell them back.
The entire Daming Prefecture has eight counties under its jurisdiction. In addition to Luoshui County and Qianping County, Zhangnan County and Hepinghe County also belong to Daming Prefecture.
Liu Dong’s family left all the markets in Daming Prefecture to her. At present, apart from Luoshui City, she has only opened a children’s play studio in Fucheng.
She thought about this matter carefully and went to every county to open a children's playhouse. Let's not talk about the money. The layout was too large, the carpenters were not available, and the transportation was also troublesome.
It is worry-free to have merchants come to order and then take them back to sell. As for how much the merchants make from it, that is none of her business.
A complete set of her children's play studios is still twenty taels of silver. I heard that Liu Dong's children's play studios in the capital have different carvings, different wood materials and different paint colors. The most expensive ones are sold for three yuan. A set of one hundred taels of silver!
If someone has the ability to sell it at this price, it will be profitable for Liu Dong’s family.
The same goes for these businessmen.
Shiliu thought that the market in Fucheng was almost saturated, and even if the people who bought it wanted to replace it, they wouldn't be able to replace it so quickly. She nodded immediately and told Wu Yi to just negotiate with the dealer.
But she was thinking about the past few months, including at Liu Dong’s house. Should this children’s playhouse also be updated?
She thought about going back and calming down to draw the drawings.
The accounts were settled, a batch of silver was taken away, and some were left on the books. Shiliu paid Li Jide and others this month's wages.
As for Wu Yi and others, they also have wages, but they are originally farmers in Zhuangzi, and they have to pay 60% of their farming income to their masters. When they work, the wages are naturally the same.
For example, Wu Yi, as a shopkeeper, the salary should be two taels of silver per month, and 40% is eight coins of silver.
Although he only had eight pieces of silver, Wu Yi was very satisfied. Working outside was much better than at Zhuangzi. He saw people and things every day that he couldn't think of in Zhuangzi, but he didn't have a penny. , as long as food and accommodation are provided, he is willing to come out,
Not to mention eight coins of silver, which is nearly ten taels of silver a year!
He thought that by the time of the New Year, he would have saved a lot of money in his hand. Then he would ask the girl to give him a favor and allow his son to marry Brother Jiang's daughter. Both of their families had this It's a tacit understanding, just waiting for the master's nod.
Pomegranate paid everyone their wages and took Pang Ni out for a walk in the afternoon, buying things for everyone in the family.
She also bought a pair of silver bracelets. Her eldest cousin, Song Dongsheng's daughter-in-law, had just given birth the month before and was about to be one month old. She planned to give this silver lock to her niece.
She also gave a silver lock to her cousin's birthday brother before.
They are all direct cousins, and she doesn’t treat them favorably.
It is good for children to wear silver to dispel diseases and evil spirits.
Pang Ni saw her buying a two-tael silver bracelet as a full-moon gift for her cousin's little girl without blinking an eye, and she was filled with envy in her heart, thinking that she had received pomegranate's help. When the time comes to do business at a stall, I must do it well and make a lot of money. I will also have the confidence to buy things for my nieces and nephews in the future.
Although her biological brother is still young and is far away from marrying a wife, her uncle's cousins are not far away from marrying a wife!
Not to mention, there are pomegranates!
She is about the same age as Pomegranate, and Pomegranate will be married in two years!
When the time comes, she, as an aunt, will have to give Pomegranate’s child, her eldest nephew, a decent full-moon gift!
Pomegranate didn’t know that Pang Ni was secretly thinking about what kind of full-moon gift she should buy for her child as an aunt. If she knew, she would probably say, you might as well give this gift to me. child? She never thought about it!
