Ning Feng subconsciously looked through several banknotes and found that the denomination was not just the one thousand taels on the surface, but also two thousand and five thousand taels below. He exclaimed and quickly looked through it from beginning to end. After counting, His face was still full of disbelief.
"One hundred thousand taels?!"
When this number was told, not only Ning Feng, who was holding the banknote, couldn't believe it.
Ning Wuyue and the old housekeeper standing next to him were both shocked.
"Fifth brother, is this the money you paid for selling perfume yesterday?" Ning Wuyi naturally heard about how prosperous the business of the perfume shop was yesterday.
But he was busy with martial arts and didn't ask carefully how much he sold.
I only know that the sisters at home received a lot of greetings and invitations today. Many officials and ladies who had never interacted with them before wanted to invite them to participate in poetry gatherings or tea parties.
And asked in a subtle way if they could ask them for help and let the fifth brother make some perfume for them.
"Yes, but only part of it." Ning Wuyan's answer made everyone present take a breath.
The perfume business is so profitable!
One hundred thousand taels is just a part?
"Yesterday, a total of 135,000 taels were sold, and the stock was cleared. The pre-order quantity is 2,000 bottles, which will be delivered in seven days, so I came here this time to get money to exchange for people."
Ning Wuyang handed Ning Feng a step.
The filial piety of one hundred thousand taels was too heavy, so Ning Feng naturally refused to accept it.
When it came to changing personnel, Ning Feng thought that money was indeed needed to deal with the wounded soldiers, and the perfume shop also needed people... so he shamelessly took two banknotes from them.
"My dear grandson, these three thousand taels are enough for you to pick anyone you want. The rest... you can take it back." Ning Feng stuffed the rest back again. This was the first time in his life that he had seen so much money. .
Since it was given to him by his grandson, he looked extremely proud at this time, but his eyes were a little moist: "You are fine, grandpa has no other skills. If you want someone, just ask. You can choose the people from the Ning Mansion. And don't worry, Cong Ning Those who have gone out of the government can definitely be trusted."
These are all life-long friendships, so we can naturally trust them.
Just seeing his grandfather's happy and worried look, Ning Wushan could only explain clearly: "I have no intention of letting them engage in dangerous things. Also, the raw materials of perfume are actually not expensive. The important thing is the secret recipe and handwork."
After a brief explanation of the proportions of perfume, the important purification techniques were directly passed over. The main purpose was to make Ning Feng understand that the cost of a fifty-tael bottle of perfume, including labor costs, was only a few taels of silver.
After hearing what he said, Ning Feng asked hesitantly: "Is fifty bottles expensive?"
"It is positioned to serve the rich. An average family of five eats and drinks less than 20 taels a year. If anyone tightens their belts just to buy a bottle of perfume and pretend to be rich, that is what they are happy with. , if I lower the price of perfume for this kind of people, they will only dislike it, because the cheap perfume is not worthy of their worth."
Regarding Ning Wushan's explanation, Ning Feng thought about it for a moment, nodded and said: "It makes sense, you are robbing the rich and giving to the poor."
When Ning Wuyang saw that Ning Feng had changed his mind so quickly, and that although he was upright but not rigid, he knew that the matter of getting Ning Fu to sell perfume together was done.
Perfume is definitely a business that can make a lot of money continuously.
But his energy is limited. If he only relies on himself and wants to take care of other things, he must be limited to a small workshop.
If you want to grow and develop, you must choose people who are reliable, trustworthy, and useful.
In this era when one person breaks the law and the whole family or even nine tribes suffer, blood relatives are the first choice.
Others can say that what he is most worried about is that Ning Feng will think that he has made too much money after learning about the huge profits of the perfume business, because under Ning Feng's management, the medical clinic makes small profits but quick turnover, and does not make much money. It is true that it has accumulated a good reputation. , but I earn so little.
Many noble people disdain to make too much money. Fortunately, Ning Feng does not have such bad habits. He is just a kind-hearted person.
"Grandpa, I'll give you two more, and give the rest to the second aunt. When the third brother passes the martial arts examination, he can donate it to the military attache." Ning Wuyan took out another eight thousand taels.
This time, Ning Feng accepted it directly.
For a kid from a rich family, ten thousand taels can only buy 200 bottles of perfume, but for a wounded soldier, it is possible to save hundreds of military families and rescue them in times of crisis.
There were twenty-three wounded soldiers who retreated this time, but there were still many wounded soldiers that he was unable to take care of before.
"My dear grandson, grandpa thanks you for them first. One day, I will let them thank you in person!"
Not really.
Ning Wuhao would provide this money, not in the spirit of daring and benefiting the world, but simply to make grandpa happy, and.
He has deep admiration for those soldiers who truly protect the country.
If you have the ability to take care of someone, you should naturally lend a hand.
Ning Wuyang handed the remaining ninety thousand taels to Ning Wuzhen's hand and said smoothly: "Please help me register for the military report. When the time comes, my third brother and I will take the exam together."
"Are you taking the martial arts exam?" Ning Wuyi took the banknote and asked curiously: "You're not going to take the civil exam and you want to take the martial arts exam?"
"Third brother, I am already a Poet Immortal, so I will not bully others to seize that spot."
Ning Wuhuang didn't have the nerve to say that he failed the exam at all, so he just pretended to be a cup.
This explanation convinced Ning Feng and Ning Wuyu, and even praised him for his consideration for others.
"Anyway, dear grandson, you like to do business and don't want to get involved in official struggles. It doesn't matter if you don't take the autumn exam. It will be enough for you to be admitted to the martial arts examination and have a decent status." After Ning Feng experienced the fake medicine incident, The expectations for Ning Wushan have already been reduced to the lowest level.
Just stay alive.
Now Ning Wuhuang has become a poet praised by everyone.
Ning Feng raised the original standards a bit.
Just live happily.
The three grandfathers and grandsons talked for a while.
The garrison specially sent horses to pick up Ning Feng. After Ning Feng left, Ning Wuhuang asked the old housekeeper to bring those who were willing to work in the perfume shop to the martial arts field.
"When I go to work in a perfume shop, I'll cover food and accommodation, and I'll advance three months' wages in advance and try to get them all to come."
Unlike last time, only Xiao Yunfei didn't want to be a freeloader and had the courage to follow him.
This time, in addition to the personal servants of each master, other servants and guards almost filled the martial arts arena.
The young and strong boy stood at the front, and the injured man stood at the back.
"I heard that Fifth Young Master's perfume shop is making a lot of money. You can eat chicken, duck, and fish every day."
"Isn't that right? I paid three months' salary in advance, and even gave me an extra red envelope during the holidays."
"The six people who went there last time were really blessed. This time when the Fifth Young Master chooses people, he should first choose those of us who are well-equipped."
These words fell on the ears of the wounded soldiers, and they retreated again.
It's not that they don't want to go, but the more profitable the shop, the more worried they are that they will be doing a disservice by going.
Even if they don't want to hold back, and they are holding their breath and will never be lazy, how can the Fifth Young Master safely let them go to such an important perfume shop?
Li Tie, Zhang Zhu and the others were lucky enough to be as lucky as they are now.
Today's blessing may not be their turn.
