Chapter 204: Money Comes from the Sky While You Stay at Home
"Brother Wen, don't worry. Although they are all very powerful, in my heart, you are still the most powerful one." Huang Xue Ning's eyes were starry, but the admiration in her eyes seemed to have a few more impurities and was not as pure as before.
Wen Ruyu glanced at him. It didn't seem so convincing to say such an obvious thing out loud!
"The restaurant in the city should have opened, right?" Jiang Youzhen had not received any dividends in the past two months, and had invested all of it in the new restaurant.
"It's going very smoothly. We just opened yesterday. Do you want to know how much money it costs?" Tong Huaian was in a good mood when he talked about this.
No one would complain about having too much money, especially for someone of his status, who would have many opportunities to spend money in the future. How much money does the family have per month? What can it do? Which family doesn't secretly buy property outside?
"Three hundred taels?" Jiang Youzhen thought about it. After all, it was the provincial capital, quite prosperous, and there was a dock there. It must be twice as much as here in the county, right?
"Do you have so little confidence in our Fuyun Pavilion?" Tong Huaian said, stretching out a hand, "Five hundred taels."
"So much?" Jiang Youzhen was a little delighted. "I thought the job in the capital was easy, but I didn't know it was so profitable."
Looking at Jiang Youzhen's sparkling eyes, Tong Huaian's eyes softened, and he looked at her more like the God of Wealth.
"But you also said that there will be discounts for the first three days of opening, and then the prices will go down. But I think two or three hundred taels a day is not a problem. Our ingredients are better than those in the county town, and the prices are higher."
Jiang Youzhen nodded, and her little head had already started calculating how much profit she would make for the month.
Oh my! Just in the city, she must have a net profit of more than 2,000 taels a month? It's true that she can make money from the sky while sitting at home!
"What? Are you satisfied with this little money? We still have to drive to the capital! I have sent people to look for a shop in the capital, but the cost there will definitely be higher."
Tong Huaian looked at Jiang Youzhen with satisfaction as he curled his lips and looked heartbroken.
"I haven't received any money yet! I've invested so much, but it seems I won't get any money in the next few months!"
"Didn't you say that you should strike while the iron is hot? We must seize the initiative! Although new recipes are added every month, with so many cooks, waiters and shopkeepers, not everyone can keep their mouths shut. We must quickly establish a reputation so that customers will only think of Fuyun Pavilion when they eat."
Tong Huaian spoke with great ambition. Jiang Youzhen glanced at him and saw the ambitious look in his eyes.
Who is as indifferent as a chrysanthemum? This guy is two-faced, but in fact he values money.
"Brother Huai'an is obsessed with making money now? Let's take it easy and not take too big steps." Jiang Youzhen has calmed down now. If she opens more and more restaurants, she will be tied to the Fourth Prince's faction and will be completely on board his ship.
"Why are you suddenly so worried? Are you worried that the people behind you can't protect us? Don't worry! Those people can't reach us."
Jiang Youzhen smiled at him. I'm not worried about losing my backer. I'm worried that my backer is too reliable.
No! She still had to find a way to develop and look at other ways to make a living. She couldn't put all her eggs in one basket.
"Oh! By the way, I need to trouble you with something."
"What's the matter? Why are you still alienated from me? Just tell me if you have something to say."
Jiang Youzhen glanced at him. Why was Fox so easy to talk to all of a sudden? Was he too gentle today? Did he pass the exam and was in a good mood?
"You also know that my father was adopted by our clan's eighth grandfather, but this May is the time for corvée labor, and my birthday happens to be on the ninth day of the fifth month, but I don't want to go."
Jiang Youzhen said directly, there is no way, her identity does not allow it. When a group of men live together, eat and live together, can she hide her identity? Besides, she wants to enjoy herself now, but she is not willing to suffer.
"So that's what it is? It's just a small matter. I will tell the magistrate. Have you forgotten the post he gave you? You can go to him."
"Oh! I forgot about this. But since I've told you, I'll ask for your help."
Tong Huaian agreed directly. It was just a matter of words and he didn't even have to pay any money.
"Don't stop. Turn right at the second honey locust tree ahead. We live over there now."
The carriage soon arrived at the gate of Jiang Tao's house. Jiang Youzhen got off the carriage and found that the driver was Xiaowu.
"Huh? Brother Xiaowu is back? I haven't seen you for a long time. I hope you are well?" Jiang Youzhen was very surprised. When she climbed onto the carriage just now, Xiaowu didn't even make any sarcastic remarks?
"Xiao Wu meets the Second Young Master Jiang. It's been a long time since we last met. The Second Young Master Jiang has become more handsome than ever. You should just call me Xiao Wu! I am not worthy of being called your brother." Xiao Wu immediately bowed and said with a smile.
Jiang Youzhen immediately looked as if he had seen a ghost. This kid! If you try this on me, it will be meaningless.
I guess he must have suffered a lot during the training, so he is so obedient?
"I still like your previous rebellious look, alas!" Jiang Youzhen clicked his tongue, his tone full of regret, but his expression showed that it was as it should be.
Tong Huaian lowered the curtain and couldn't help laughing. This little arrogant look was quite interesting.
When he got home, he found that Shen had already arrived. Jiang Youzhen had just put down the book box when Shen came in.
"Didn't I tell you to stay away from Master Tong? You also know your identity. Once it is exposed, people will think that your previous behavior is improper, which will affect your reputation."
Shen was very helpless. This old girl had too many ideas and she could not control her.
"Why would I be exposed? Don't worry! Just think of it as if you really gave birth to a son, that's fine!" Jiang Youzhen didn't care. This was such an old cliché that his ears were callused from hearing it so many times.
"Oh! You are so careless!" Shen sighed deeply.
"By the way, have you bought clothes, mother? I have a day off tomorrow, and I want to take my sisters to the city for a stroll. After my second sister gets married, I have to arrange my third sister's marriage as well, so I won't have time to go to the city."
As Jiang Youzhen spoke, he thought of his future third brother-in-law. I heard that he was studying with Master Liu in the town?
She was too busy these days and had no time to inquire about it. Although Jiang Fugui and his friends had asked many people to inquire about it, and found that except for the poor family, the man had a good character and good looks, she was still worried.
It seems I have to ask Ah San. He is very familiar with the people around him and he must know.
"You are all girls, so you'd better not show up in public." Shen felt a little troublesome.
"If my sisters don't go, how can I know what to buy? They have to decide on the materials and needlework themselves. I'm just going with them. All of us can go and buy some more things for the house."
