Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife - Chapter 117
[Chapter 117 Business is booming]
In just over ten days, the Jinxiu Garden and Buxian Tower were all over the Jingling City. Every day, a group of people waited at the entrance of the Jinxiu Garden to try their luck and see if they could go in and have a cup of tea.
Wei Yi and Yun Chun, who were in charge of making tea, also won the support of a group of people in a short period of time, and some people even quarreled over which Sicha’s tea-making skills were better.
Manager Qin flipped through the account book every day, and felt that his heart skipped a beat. He didn’t expect that this tea sale could make so much profit. In just ten days, there were tens of thousands of taels of income. This was due to the restrictions on posting in the early days of the business. Considering the number of people entering the Jinxiu Garden, if not, I am afraid that they can earn more.
Mu Yunyao was looking through the newly delivered tea leaves in the tea room. These tea leaves were dried and roasted according to her method. Every piece of tea was made with great care, so the aroma of the tea was very pleasant.
Jin Lan entered the door and replied, “Miss, steward Qin is here.”
“Please come in.” Mu Yunyao said as she greeted him.
“Young lady is polite,” Manager Qin now has full admiration for Mu Yunyao. He has written letters to praise her more than once. He kept pushing the father-in-law, asking him to beat the side drum more, and urging the lord to take the golden doll back as soon as possible. , “Girl, this is the account for more than ten days, would you like to take a look?”
“Isn’t the account counted at the end of the month?” Because she and King Yue had already decided to divide the account for the month of 40 to 60, the account for this month would not be settled until the end of the month. Seeing that Manager Qin had brought the account book, he was surprised.
“Look, girl, in just 13 days, Jinxiu Garden has made a net profit of 15,000 taels of silver!”
Mu Yunyao took the account book and flipped through it, but she was not surprised. Those who can afford tea have always been wealthy people, so she is not soft on pricing. The most expensive lotus tea is sold. When it comes to three taels of silver per pot, after all, this is what Governor Zhang and others are full of praise after drinking, so naturally it cannot be judged at an ordinary price.
For ordinary people, three taels of silver can make a family of three live for more than half a year, but for wealthy people, it is a drop in the bucket, and they can be rewarded at will.
Therefore, the guests who can enter Jinxiu Garden to drink tea every day have to spend at least four or five taels of silver per person, so the approximate amount of silver that she can earn in January is within her expectations, and she is not too surprised after reading the account.
Seeing Mu Yunyao’s calm expression, Manager Qin didn’t know how to react for a while. He thought she should be surprised, but he was calmer than himself, which made him feel like he had never seen the world before: ” Showing the account book to the girl is just a matter of convenience. I want to discuss with the girl, how about we settle the account every half month? Because the fourth master lives far away, it is not convenient to send it with too much money…”
“Okay, as long as the accounts are clear, any settlement can be done.” Mu Yunyao’s face remained calm, but a lot of speculation flashed in his heart. Manager Qin should not say this for no reason. Just send the ticket, there is no inconvenience at all, the only possibility is that King Yue is short of money, and it is very short!
“I think of another thing, and I want to discuss it with Manager Qin.”
“Just say something, girl.”
“We fry tea to make tea every day, and a lot of loose tea leaves are screened out. Those tea leaves are useless, and they are not worth much money when sold. I want to set up some tea stalls on some official roads and docks, and one person will serve them. For a penny, you can drink tea at will, which is not only convenient for people, but also can gain some good reputation.”
Steward Qin nodded: “The girl is really kind.”
“Why not do the little things that you can do? But you should also pay special attention. There are also people selling tea at many docks. We have to do good deeds, and we can’t hinder other people’s business.”
“Well, I’ll make people pay more attention.” Since it’s doing a good deed, try to be as thorough as possible, and don’t make others complain.
Steward Qin moved very quickly. In just two days, many tea stalls were set up in many places. There was a pot, a pot of tea, a stack of large black porcelain bowls, a few tables, chairs, and stools. Yunyao and Buxianlou greeted each other with compliments.
Surprisingly, the tea stall on the pier has attracted many merchants for Buxian Tower. Those merchants have seen the tea-making skills in Buxian Tower, and they have come to Mr. Qin to discuss and want to buy tea from here.
Qin Guanshi naturally had no reason to refuse. In just a short period of time, the tea alone was sold for nearly 20,000 taels of silver.
King Yue’s letter was delivered to Mu Yunyao again. This time the letter was simpler, with only two words: rest assured.
Mu Yunyao looked at the two words sharp as a knife on the letter, and couldn’t help feeling that King Yue was really worth a thousand words. She sent 20,000 taels of silver notes, but only returned the two words. At the same time, she couldn’t help but think of her previous guess.
Could it be that King Yue really lacks silver taels? When she saw King Yue in the last life, she had become the concubine of King Jin. At that time, the emperor was in poor health, and the princes in the court fought with black eyes. When King Yue returned to Beijing, the emperor was too sick to be able to go to court early. He also ordered the king of Yue to lead the imperial army to guard the palace city.
King Jin and others were also extremely jealous of King Yue. Before, his situation seemed to be really bad, and he had almost no sense of existence in the court. When King Jin occasionally mentioned it, it was also a look of contempt and ridicule.
It seems that there is a way to find out what King Yue is. Anyway, after three years of knowing, he will have to turn around. If he is in a bad situation now, he might as well help him out, and maybe he will get unexpected rewards.
Steward Qin received Eunuch Cheng’s reply, and he was so happy that he couldn’t help himself. He looked at Yu Yi, who was standing on one side: “You said that the master has received a letter from Miss Mu, and said that he wants to protect his own people?” Doesn’t that mean that the master Are you also interested in Mu girl?
Yu Yi, who came to deliver the letter, couldn’t help but recall his words carefully: “I heard Yu Heng say that the master meant to protect his own things, so he should be talking about Niyunfang, right?”
“Things are dead, but people are alive. How can something be important? The master’s intention is to let us protect Miss Mu!” Manager Qin glanced at Yu Yi, who, like Yu Heng, had a dead mind. .
Yu Yi took a closer look at Steward Qin’s expression, and felt that it was better not to refute, so he bluntly changed the subject: “Steward Qin, I think the business of Jinxiu Garden seems to be very good.”
“Yeah, it’s all thanks to Miss Mu. When I first saw Miss Mu, I thought she was very extraordinary. How can ordinary people be as smart and compelling as she is?” Speaking of Mu Yunyao, Manager Qin smiled. Intentionally, he kept complimenting, “You are not lucky enough to drink the tea made by Miss Mu. Wei Yi and Yun Chun are still far from each other. Back then…”
Yu Yi couldn’t react a little. When he saw Steward Qin before, he always kept inquiring about how his master was, but now he kept praising others. If he hadn’t known that he was loyal to his master, he would have doubted that Steward Qin in front of him was being abused. People bought it.
