Chapter 26
"En." Yao Yanyu nodded. The nobles in the capital each have farms, and their own farms grow all kinds of exquisite grains. Why do they need to go out to buy food?
Most of the people who need to buy grain to live are craftsmen and common people who live at the bottom of the society. These people don’t have much money, and every time they buy rice, they only chew and eat for three to five days. Naturally, big rice shops don’t like them. I will not go to that kind of place to buy food.

If opening a grain and rice shop in the capital city can't do business with the imperial court, it's better to keep a low profile, and it's safer to do business with civilians.The ancestors of the Yao family were businessmen, this must have been taken into account long ago.

"Our silk and satin shop is not small, and there are all kinds of silk and satin. It's just a pity that there is no top embroiderer. Now there are two or three hundred taels of silver in the account every month, but the embroidery at the opposite shop is very good. According to the shop The shopkeeper in the store said that they are busy with five or six hundred taels a month, and they are even more busy during the holidays."

Yao Yanyu nodded: "That's all right, you can't be too aggressive in doing business, the big tree attracts the wind."

"The business of that grocery store is not very good. It only earns five or sixty taels of silver every month, and at most no more than 60 taels a year. But the tea shop is not bad, because the supply of goods is good, and it earns more than the silk shop. On weekdays, there is a profit of more than 600 taels of silver per month, and the energy saving is doubled during the New Year. This year, there is a full profit of five or six thousand taels of silver."

Yao Yanyu pointed at her chin, did a rough calculation, and said, "After this one year calculation, I can have... 8000 taels of silver in my account?"

Nanny Feng nodded: "The girl is right."

"That's really not bad!" Yao Yanyu calculated the accounts carefully in her heart. With an income of 8000 taels a year, she can be regarded as a little rich woman after all, right?Among other things, my own food and drink expenses will definitely not be used.If you can take it out and make some investment to make money regenerate silver...

Thinking of this, Yao Yanyu couldn't help sighing, she was not born to do business.In his previous life, he didn't know anything about stock trading and investment. In this life, he traveled to the Dayun Dynasty, and he also didn't know anything about business.

In two lives, she is most interested in medicine.Healing a disease and saving someone is nothing to her, but if she talks about making money in business, her head will swell just thinking about it.Simply seven 8000 taels of silver a year is not too little. I try my best to keep this property, and I can barely live a prosperous and well-off life in the future, and it will be good for my whole life.

However, Mother Feng immediately shattered her illusion.

"Miss, the silver for a year is indeed enough for ordinary people to live comfortably. But girl, you are no better than those ordinary people. Don't say anything else, just look at the life of our aunt and grandma. The servant has already inquired about it. The monthly allowance given to the young mistress in the Dinghou mansion is 20 taels per month. At the end of the year, the Zhuangzi of the Dinghou mansion will buy things for the third house, but as far as the servant knows, it is also very limited. The Dinghou mansion is too big. The expenses are extremely complicated, it is true that the Eldest Princess has a fief, but the Marquis has to respect her every year. The princes and aristocrats exchange gifts for weddings, weddings and weddings, which one is less money?"

Nanny Feng gave Yao Yanyu a detailed calculation with her fingers: "Besides, each room always has its own expenses, the third master also needs to socialize, and the aunt and grandma have to manage from left to right, and a good table outside will cost thousands of taels. For a decent piece of clothing, the wages of an embroiderer are more than a dozen or 20 taels. Calculated in this way, the grain and rice dividends distributed by the public to each house, plus the monthly allowance of 40 taels a month for the eldest aunt and grandma, I’m afraid It's not even enough for the third master to spend half a year outside."

Yao Yanyu gradually turned bitter. He thought he was a rich man at first, but he didn't want to be completely different.

Nanny Feng looked at her master's bitter face, and said with a light smile, "So we have to find a way to make up for the rest. Miss, you don't have to worry about these things now, but you will always marry in the future. Married people always have to take care of these things. The current income of 8000 taels of silver per year may not make ends meet by then."

Yao Yanyu pursed her lips after hearing these words, and asked, "Then you can still laugh? If you follow me in the future, you might have to fight the northwest wind."

Mother Feng smiled and said: "Before the girl was in the governor's mansion, the old lady and the wife would make plans for the girl, so the old slave didn't have to worry about the girl. Now the girl has left the governor's mansion, and now it's like this In this situation, the old slave has to tell the girl about these troubles in advance. It is nothing more than to let the girl know it earlier. As for drinking the northwest wind, we will not do it. "

Yao Yanyu also laughed, it was a joke to drink the Northwest Wind, but she had to think about it seriously.

"I know nurse, you and Uncle Feng are both capable, and I've always been impatient to worry about these things. From now on, I will hand over the management of these four shops to you. I just need to check the books every three months That's fine, as for how to run and manage the shop, I don't ask at all. Then, I will give you [-]% of the shop's annual profit, which can be regarded as retirement money for you."

"Hey, this can't be done." Mother Feng hurriedly said: "It's only natural for a slave to serve the master. If the master gives us monthly money and food, it is the master's grace. If we get greedy again, we will ask the master for help." The dividends of the industry are not to be struck by lightning!"

"This is confusing. I will give you a [-]% bonus, which means that you will get more for your work. In this way, I will rest assured that you will make progress in your work. Besides, what is right and proper? The slave treats the master very well, and the master should also show it. It's very good to give to the slave. This is not in vain for the master and the servant. Could it be that the master occupies all the good things in the world, and the slave waits to bleed and sweat, but he can't get any good?" Yao Yanyu said with a smile: " There will be no good rewards for such a mean master in the future."

Nanny Feng declined again and again, saying that it was too inappropriate for her husband and wife to get [-]% of the dividend.

Yao Yanyu still laughed and said to Yan Yan: "If you don't think it's suitable, you can use all your energy to make a shop for me. Let me earn more money every year, and earn back the share you took away. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"

Nanny Feng smiled and went down to show her loyalty: "The girl is generous and benevolent, it is our blessing. We and my wife will be loyal to the girl in this life, and we will never have any second thoughts."

The Mid-Autumn Festival reunion banquet is scheduled for the whole family to go to the eldest princess's mansion.Yao Yanyu really didn't want to go, but this was Yao Fengge's first time to show up in front of the eldest princess after he recovered from his illness. She was going, and Yao Yanyi was going too, and Yao Yanyu had no reason not to go.

So Yao Yanyu made up his mind to keep a low profile to the end, not to say a word, not to take a step.I just hope that the eldest princess can completely ignore her existence, go quietly to eat something and come back.

Clinker, the Eldest Princess is in a good mood today. She liked Yao Fengge very much at first, but now that she has just recovered from a serious illness and came to kowtow to herself, she was happy for a while, so she looked at Yao Yanyu more, and said: "You This younger sister looks good too."
