Han Shuxian took the notebook handed over by Li Changfeng, and after looking at it carefully, he realized that the lines he had just glanced at were not drawn randomly, but numbers, but there were only four numbers, namely: one, two, thirty.
Mo Ziyuan was afraid that her godfather wouldn't understand, so she explained, "My uncles are illiterate, but they have to remember the amount of red potatoes they buy every time, so I only taught them the simplest four numbers and weighed them every time." The maximum weight should not exceed thirty kilograms. If it weighs more than ten kilograms, take it out. The minimum weight is ten kilograms. If it weighs less than ten kilograms, don't take it out.
Write down the corresponding number each time you weigh it, and so on. If you have several thirty, twenty, or ten, write down the number. As for the date, write down one page a day, although you can't be sure of the specific day. But it can still be seen how many days in a month we bought red potatoes, and we mainly look at the total amount, so we didn’t let the uncles keep track of the days. "
After Mo Ziwan finished explaining, Han Shuxian laughed, "Thank you for coming up with such an idea to embarrass your uncles. Although it is a bit troublesome, it is better because it is simple and easy to learn."
After finishing speaking, he continued: "But I have other ideas. It won't be long before your uncles can recognize some words and keep simple accounts."
"Godfather, tell me quickly."
"What good ideas does Mr. Han have? It's really hard for people who are illiterate to do things. We can't even keep an account." Li Changfeng also followed up.
"The trick is to leave one of the three of you in the workshop. You can rotate it every month. After staying in the workshop, you can learn to read and read with Wan Wan for half an hour every day."
The three Li brothers couldn't believe it, "Isn't it too late for us to learn at such an old age?"
"It's not too late. I can memorize three or five words a day, and I can memorize hundreds of words in a month. After a year and a half, I can easily memorize any documents I have read, and it will not be a problem, and the business of the workshop is getting better and better. , we also need manpower here, you will be familiar with the things in the workshop now that you are here."
"Godfather, this is a good idea. Our business will get bigger and better in the future. It will be inconvenient for my uncles who are illiterate."
"It's good, but I'm afraid I won't be able to learn it." The three of them also knew how to read, but they were worried that they wouldn't be able to learn it.
"You can learn everything from eucalyptus to eucalyptus. What do you have to be afraid of?"
"Wanwan is right, even eucalyptus can learn it. There is no reason why we can't learn it. If brother is afraid that he won't be able to learn it, he can ask Lin Song to start a small stove for you." This time it was Li Changliang who was the first to express his stance.
After the matter of learning literacy was agreed upon, while talking, he added up the numbers in the small book in his hand and calculated the cost of red potato starch. It was less than the previous estimate. It cost a total of twelve taels to buy red potato starch.
"Excluding the cost of red potato, I made a total of eight hundred and twenty-two, three hundred and forty cents last month." Han Shuxian said after excluding the cost of red potato.
"Why so many?" Li Changyu asked in surprise.
"This is because we don't have enough manpower. If we have more people, we can make more money." Han Shuxian added. This is another reason why he wants to expand the workshop earlier. After all, no one will have trouble with money. , there is no reason to earn less if you can earn more.
"This is too much. We will never earn this much in our lifetime." Li Changliang said with a sigh.
"When Wan Wan told me just now, I couldn't believe it. There were really so many!" Although Li Changfeng believed it, he felt like he was dreaming.
"Although we made a lot of money last month, we will have to spend a lot of money in the future. First of all, we need to build the workshop again. This time it will be at least as big as the current five, so we have to save some of the money for the workshop."
"That's right, we are not in a hurry to spend money. Let's repair the workshop first and then divide it slowly later." Li Changfeng expressed his stance first.
Li Changyu and Li Changliang also nodded and said they should focus on repairing the workshop first.
Although Mo Tingyu knew that the workshop made money, he had never seen such a big sum in his life. However, because he had known about it for a long time, he was not as surprised as the three brothers of the Li family. However, he was also anxious about repairing the workshop. People who come back from delivering goods every day say that the restaurant does not have enough sales.
"It doesn't matter this month, there will be money next month as well. First, save the money for the repair shop and hire more people to repair it. It can also be repaired earlier, so as not to be rushed by three restaurants every day."
"What Uncle Mo said is that if you continue to push them, I will be embarrassed to see them." Han Shuxian had really avoided seeing the shopkeepers of three restaurants in the past few days, and urged them as soon as he saw them, but in his workshop .
"The workshop needs to be repaired, and the money still needs to be divided. My idea is to use 50% of the profit to divide it first, and keep the remaining 50% for repairing the workshop and daily expenses. At the end of the year, we can divide it again based on the year's general ledger. What do you think of the rest?"
"I agree." Mo Ziyuan was the first to express her opinion. "Although our workshop is making money now, it is still in the start-up stage. There are many things that still need money. The expansion of the workshop, the expansion of personnel, and the addition of some equipment are all. If you need money, you should set aside some money every month as a backup. If you have extra money at the end of the year, you can make dividends and distribute it, so that you can allocate more money for the New Year."
Han Shuxian and Mo Ziyuan both agreed. The three Li family members and Mo Tingyu didn't have any ideas at all, and they have no objections now. "We have no objections. We all listen to you."
Then Han Shuxian divided the 50% of the profits according to the previously determined proportions of each family. After erasing the fraction, the Mo family took 40% and divided it 164 taels. The Han family and the Li family each took 30%, each with 164 taels. One hundred and twenty-three taels of silver were divided.
"One more thing." Han Shuxian said after dividing the money.
"Brother Han, that's what you said." Li Changfeng had never received so much money before, and he didn't know where to put it in his hand.
After Li Changfeng said this, everyone else looked at Han Shuxian, waiting for him to continue.
"I promised the village before that when the workshop makes money, I will build a school for the village. I have already told the village chief about this. Once the workshop is completed, I will build a school. At that time, I will no longer go to the county to teach. If you find it appropriate to spend an hour every day teaching the village children in the village school, Lin Song will stay in our village to go to school."
"Thank you so much, Brother Han. I will ask Lin Song to kowtow to you in a moment, Brother Han." Li Changfeng stood up excitedly and bowed to Han Shuxian.
"We are all a family. If you continue to be polite like this, you will be a heretic. Besides, he is learning very well from Wan Wan now." Han Shuxian also stood up and helped Li Changfeng up.
Speaking of Mo Ziyuan, Li Changfeng turned to look at her with a look of affection on his face, "Thanks to her for teaching so many children, big and small, at such a young age." After saying this, he said a little embarrassedly: "Don't be too big in the future. Uncle is stupid!"
Mo Ziwan grinned, "My eldest brother is smart, and my uncle must be smart too. He will definitely learn it as soon as he can."
After saying good things, they chatted for a while, and then Mo Tingyu and Mo Ziyuan walked back with the three members of the Li family.
After waiting for the Mo family to leave, Han Shuxian ordered someone to call Li Yougui and Du Chunxia.
The two of them came to see Yu Silian early in the morning, but Han Shuxian sent someone to tell them to go back first and call them over to talk later.
The person who went to Li Yougui's house was Chang Hu. When he came to the door of Li Yougui's house, he shouted: "Uncle Yougui, are you at home?"
Li Yougui, Du Chunxia, and Mrs. Feng have been waiting at home, waiting for the Han family to send someone to notify them.
"Yes! At home!" Before Li Yougui could agree, Mrs. Feng couldn't wait to agree. Then she ran out of the house and saw Chang Hu, "Chang Hu is here, sit down in the house!" At this time, Mrs. Feng had a look on her face. Flattery.
"No, I'm still waiting for Uncle Gui and Aunt Du." Changhu also knew very well about Mrs. Feng's personality, including the incident where she went to the workshop to cause trouble yesterday, and he didn't like her very much.
When Mrs. Feng ran out, Li Yougui and Du Chunxia followed her out of the house. "I need you to run away," Du Chunxia said to Changhu after she came out.
"Aunt Du, you're welcome. Come on, the master is waiting for you to come over." Changhu urged.
"Eldest nephew, did Mr. Han tell them to go back to work?" Mrs. Feng has always been thinking about this matter. Ever since Mo Ziwan told her son and daughter-in-law to come back yesterday, she regretted going to cause trouble. She originally wanted to come back first. Let them go to Mo's house alone later to apologize to Mo Ziwan, and the matter will be over.
In fact, Li Yougui and Du Chunxia also went to Mo's house, but Mo Ziyuan finally asked them to find her godfather and godmother. Mr. Han and Chunlin were in charge of the affairs of the workshop.
The two honest people didn't bother Mo Ziwan any more. After listening to Mo Ziwan's words, they went to Han's house early the next morning to wait, but they were told that they would wait for a while.
After the two returned home, Ms. Feng was unhappy again, saying that they worked hard in the workshop and they were too heartless. She said they didn't want them, so she didn't want them. In short, she made Mo Ziwan and Murong Qingyuan blame again.
It's just that this time she didn't dare to scold, even at home.
But even if she didn't scold her, Du Chunxia didn't give her any face, "No matter whether they have conscience or not, the Han family and the Mo family have never sorry for us. If they don't say they are sorry for us, they have never hurt anyone in the village." Who! If you hadn't insisted on making trouble in front of the workshop, could they have fired us?"
"Why did Mom go to the workshop entrance to make trouble? Why did you enter the workshop? If you don't tell us, we won't ask you more questions. I'm stupid and can't figure it out. I don't know if I don't know. But Mr. Han and Chun Who is Lin Niang? And Wanwan knows how to read and write when she is only four years old. They are not stupid. Maybe someone has figured out why Niang went to the workshop to make trouble, so they don't want me and Yougui to work in the workshop. .”
Du Chunxia said that she was stupid and couldn't figure out why Feng went to the door of the workshop to make trouble, but she knew very well in her heart that she had been asking about how to make luncheon meat and roast duck a few days ago. When Dad Dagang asked about the famous name, he thought that he wanted to go inside the workshop and find out for himself.
Feng said stiffly, "I just want to go in and see if you are tired. What can I think of you?"
"Are we tired? Mom can see it every day, right? There's no need for you to go to the workshop to see it." After staying in the workshop for a while, Du Chunxia didn't follow Feng's rules in everything like before, causing her own harm. After getting a job, she became even more unfavorable to Mrs. Feng.
Du Chunxia didn't want to see Mrs. Feng. Before Changhu could answer her, she said, "Changhu, let's go! This will save Mr. Han from waiting too long."
