The reputation of Dahe Village has completely spread.
On the second day of the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Party, many wealthy families sent their servants to reserve seats.
After these boys paid the deposit, they did not leave the village. Instead, they asked someone to lead them to Li Zheng's home, and groups of people walked towards Li Zheng's house.
By noon, Cheng Wanwan knew the reason.
Because Mr. Qian also came to Dahe Village, he first went to Li Zheng's home, and then came to see Cheng Wanwan.
The old man said with a smile on his face: "I just bought a piece of land from Li Zheng, and I am going to find someone to build a small yard as soon as possible. In the future, when Hui'er comes to Dahe Village to study, there will be a place to live, right?"
Cheng Wanwan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I don't know whether Master Yu will accept these students in the city who are about to take the college entrance examination. If he refuses, the land will not be bought in vain."
"Everyone is buying it, so our Qian family can't lag behind." Mr. Qian stroked his beard, "Not to mention, there is so much land in Dahe Village, and the price is not expensive. I bought five acres of wasteland for one tael of silver. Ten acres, I’ve built a yard, and I can still grow some food.”
Only then did Cheng Wanwan find out that many of the ladies who attended the banquet yesterday had arranged for people to come to Dahe Village to buy land early in the morning, just so that their children would have a place to live when they study in Dahe Village.
Because there are so many people coming to buy land, Li Zheng is still busy.
It seems that whether it is ancient or modern, parents are always most concerned about their children's education. In modern times, they spend all their money to buy a house in a school district. In ancient times, they bought land and built a house without saying anything. It is all the painstaking efforts of parents.
"Sui'an people, these are the accounts for the last quarter." Mr. Qian came here mainly for this matter, "It has been three months since the skin care products were launched. In these three months, Dahe skin care products have become well known. I won’t talk about the boundaries of Huzhou. I went to the provincial capital two days ago. Qian’s Commercial House in the provincial capital put 500 units in it, and they were sold out in three days. There are many rich people there, and they send people to the shops every day. I asked here, there is no need to worry about the current market, the main problem is that our cargo volume cannot keep up..."
Cheng Wanwan opened the account book, and the accounts were very clear.
The daily shipment volume of Glycerin Workshop is about two hundred sets, which is six thousand sets a month. They are often sold out before they are even shipped out of the warehouse.
Due to limited shipments, one month's sales are always around 3,000 taels of silver. When Cheng Wanwan is given the money, that's 2,110 taels of silver, a total of more than 6,000 taels in three months.
Mr. Qian picked up a large box and opened it. Inside was a stack of banknotes and two neat rows of white money.
"The dividends from last quarter are all here. Sui'an people should take stock."
Mrs. Qi took the box and counted the boxes beside her.
Cheng Wanwan closed the account book and said, "Have you encountered any problems in the market in the past three months?"
"There are a few shopkeepers who sell snow cream in Huzhou who have made troubles, but they are all trivial and not worth mentioning." Mr. Qian paused and said, "The quantity of this product is still too small and cannot be supplied. The people of Sui'an are trying to think of something." ah."
Cheng Wanwan nodded: "I am also planning to recruit more workers and strive to increase production in November."
"Okay, okay!" Mr. Qian was overjoyed, "I hope our Dahe skin care products can be sold to every corner of Daewoo!"
After sending Mr. Qian away, the Zhou family also came over to hand over the accounting books for the previous quarter. This method of accounting was learned by the eldest brother of the Zhou family from Ergou, and it seemed more clear at a glance.
Cheng Wanwan opened it and read it carefully. The Zhou family's hands and feet were very clean, and there were no problems with the accounts.
When she was looking at the account book, shopkeeper Zhou and Mrs. Zhou didn't dare to express their anger, for fear that something was wrong and they couldn't explain it clearly.
"Business has been very good these two months." Cheng Wanwan said with a smile, closed the account book and handed it over, "New dishes will be launched in October soon. Madam Zhou will go to Ping'an County to learn from them when she has time, and then we will introduce new dishes together. .”
Madam Zhou nodded quickly: "Yes, yes."
Shopkeeper Zhou took the account book and asked carefully: "Sui'an native, is there anything wrong with the account?"
"No, your son did a good job." Cheng Wanwan praised, "You can ask your son to come and check the accounts with me in the future."
These two people are so timid. Does she really look fierce on the outside?
Shopkeeper Zhou agreed immediately.
The dividends paid to the Zhou family this time were 1,260 taels of silver, which was a 20% profit.
Hekou County has more people and is a transportation hub for nearby counties and towns, so daily business is better. The average daily profit is about 150 taels. After deducting costs and dividends, the Zhou family has earned 4,000 to 5,000 taels of silver in the past two months. about.
In addition to the Qian family and the Zhou family, Mrs. Zhu, Aunt Wang, and Cheng Yuanyuan also came to hand over the ledgers.
Cheng Wanwan lay on the wicker chair and just watched the money in the warehouse increase little by little. It felt so comfortable to just lie down and make money.
Mrs. Qi, who was in charge of counting the silver, and Yan Hong, who was in charge of accounting, were both shocked.
After they came to serve the people of Sui'an, they felt that the life of the people of Sui'an was very simple. Just any titled lady in the capital would be served by at least twenty people, and each meal would have at least thirty or forty dishes. As for clothes, Jewelry is changed every season, and old clothes are never kept for the next season...
On the other hand, people in Sui'an don't need anyone to wait on them. They only eat simple home-cooked meals every day and don't have many changes of clothes...
They always thought that people in Sui'an were poor, but now they know that they thought too much...
The people of Sui'an are making money as fast as the wives of wealthy families in the city.
It is said that the people of Sui'an have designed new clothes using cotton, which will probably make them another huge profit...
Just as he was thinking about it, a man hurriedly walked in at the door of the courtyard.
It was Kong Xiu Niang whose expression changed drastically: "Sui'an people, it's bad, something happened!"
Cheng Wanwan sat upright from the wicker chair and poured a glass of water for Kong Xiu Niang: "What happened? Speak slowly and don't be anxious."
Kong Xiu Niang didn't have the time to drink tea, she took a breath and said: "Today I asked Xia Hua to go to Hekou County to get flower patterns. She saw a new garment shop opened in the city. Isn't there a garment shop in our village? Xia Hua is I looked a few more times out of curiosity, but fortunately I looked a few more times, and then I saw that the shop sold cotton linings, No, I brought them over!"
A light blue cotton dress was placed on the table.
Cheng Wanwan's brows suddenly wrinkled. How come the style of this dress is so similar to the styles she designed?
"I asked someone to inquire about it. This ready-to-wear shop is a branch opened by shopkeeper Hu in Wanquan County. It uses Dahe Village cotton as a gimmick to promote cotton linings. The shop just opened yesterday, and today it is almost sold out. One piece The price of the lining is one tael of silver, and a set is considered to be 2 taels of silver. How much money will he make from fifty cents of cotton?" Kong Xiu Niang looked very unhappy, "When he bought the cotton, I still thought I thought he was probably making cotton cloth or quilts for sale, but I didn't expect that he ended up in the same place as the Sui'an people."
Cheng Wanwan shook his head and chuckled: "This is not the same thing as me. This is stealing our design draft."
