When Shen Fei saw the two people coming, she ordered, "You guys go down first."
Several little maids walked out obediently.
Shen Fei made the best use of all the maids and servants sent by Mrs. Tang.
She was not afraid of what methods they would use. Their family was invulnerable to all poisons, so Shen Fei and Xiao Fubao ate all the good stuffed foods sent by Mrs. Tang.
Both of them are still alive and kicking.
Moreover, the maids sent by Mrs. Tang were all well-trained, and Shen Fei enjoyed using them.
Especially Cai Qing's massage techniques, Shen Fei was very satisfied.
Shen Fei felt that the life in the Duke's Mansion was pretty good. The monthly payment was paid on time, there were servants to serve, and the big kitchen served delicious food in various ways. It was a happy life.
After several maids left, only Liu Sanquan, Erni and Mingyue were left in the house.
"Uncle Liu, why are you here so slow?"
Liu Sanquan explained, "Miss, the maid named Caiwei took us on a detour."
Shen Fei was confused. Caiwei was a very honest person, "Oh? What is her purpose? Do you see it?"
Liu Sanquan told Caiwei about inquiring about their situation, "... Caiwei mainly asked these questions, but Erni and I didn't take the bait and both went back."
Shen Fei wondered in her mind why Caiwei was interested in her Zhuangzi. "Besides our Zhuangzi affairs, is there anything else?"
Er Ni interrupted at this time: "Miss, that girl has been staring at the small box in my arms, but I blocked her back."
"Okay, you did a good job."
At this time, Erni put the box on the table, then turned to look at Liu Sanquan.
Liu Sanquan was also very excited at this time, "Miss, this box contains our income and account books. Please open it and take a look."
Liu Sanquan also didn’t expect that in the first year they planted vegetables, they would grow so well and sell so much.
Shen Fei opened the account book and looked at the vegetable account. She planted 10 acres of vegetables, and she used high-yielding seeds from later generations. She also used some fertilizers and pesticides to improve the soil, so that the vegetables not only yielded It's so high that even insects don't grow.
Especially at the end of the New Year, a pound of vegetables costs 15 cents.
The vegetables grown by Shen Fei are of good quality and are a good choice for giving as gifts in winter.
After all, such fresh green leafy vegetables are still rare to come by at this time.
"Uncle Liu, our vegetable yield per acre is 900 kilograms."
Liu Sanquan smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Yes, Miss, our Fubaozhai's vegetables are the first in Chang'an City, and they are very popular now."
Liu Sanquan didn't expect that his income would be so high without growing any grain.
When Shen Fei saw that the vegetables were sold for a total of 138 taels of silver in the end, she sighed in her heart. The money from farming is indeed not easy to make.
There are so many dishes for only one hundred taels of silver in total. Her medicine is really worth selling.
Fortunately, she didn't know the prices here at that time, so a medicine was sold for 3,000 taels of silver.
If this really depends on farming, it will still be a bit difficult to make a lot of money.
Shen Fei suddenly lost her previous complacency.
Liu Sanquan also noticed it. The eldest lady was smiling happily at first, but now she seemed unhappy again.
So he cautiously reminded: "Miss, please exchange one for the price our pigs were sold for."
Shen Fei changed another book. She had 20 pigs in total. Each pig cost about 4 taels, 500 taels. The total gross profit of the pigs was 94 taels. After deducting the 28 taels of grain, the surplus was also 66 taels.
Shen Fei couldn't help but sigh, this kind of land and breeding really couldn't make as much as businessmen.
Shen Fei quickly calmed down and said, "Uncle Liu, you have done a good job in the past six months. Our family will be able to make a profit in the first year of dividing the land."
Liu Sanquan thought of Shen Fei's purchase of the land and the people who bought it, and also knew that she had done the calculation herself. In comparison, it was true that the cost had not yet been earned back.
So he said with relief: "Miss, we are in the first year. When we plant all the fields next year, the income will be even more."
Shen Fei nodded, "Uncle Liu, have my remaining three shops been rented out first?"
Liu Sanquan shook his head, "Some people came to see it and wanted to sign a ten-year contract. The younger one thought it was too long and didn't agree. Another one wanted to improve the layout of our shop. I didn't think it was worthwhile, so I didn't agree."
Shen Fei nodded, "Don't rent it out. I want to use it next year. Let's open our own store."
"Okay, miss."
Shen Fei took out another 50 taels of silver and handed it to Liu Sanquan, "Uncle Liu Sanquan, it's the Chinese New Year. You can take this money back and share it with your family."
Liu Sanquan was a little embarrassed. There were a total of 15 servants in the village, and it was difficult for him to divide the money. It was not appropriate to divide more or less.
Shen Fei thought for a while, "Then you take 6 taels of silver, Uncle Ma and Uncle Li get 4 taels, and the rest each get 3 taels. We don't make much this year. When we make more next year, we will get more points." .”
Liu Sanquan waved his hand hurriedly, "Miss, the servants are already very grateful."
Liu Sanquan really felt that this was good. At least they had enough to eat and wear warm clothes in the Shen family. The host family was nice and did not restrict their movements.
As for the women at home, when they are free, they can also do some handicrafts and add some income to the family.
