Chapter 104 Letter from Academy
The little guys have been setting up stalls for several months. Although the income of pancake fruit has gradually stabilized recently, the income during the first period of working is very considerable. After a few months, the little guys have earned about a year 200 taels of silver.

This amount of money does not sound like much, but it is enough to cover the expenses of four or five middle-class families for a year.

That is to say, if these children are separated from Shen Yi now, the existing industry is enough for them to support their families.

Although the profits of new industries will be slowly squeezed to the minimum as the industry matures, as long as the snack industry is willing to work, it can still earn some money.

To be honest, without Xu Fu, most of these little guys would have left Shen Yi to work on their own. After all, teenagers don’t have a long-term vision. Only Xu Fu recognized Shen Yi and was willing to be faithful. Doing things behind Shen Yi.

Not only because of the kindness of bullshit, but also because of benefits.

Although the idea of ​​patented medicine has not been achieved so far, Xu Fu has done it himself after all, so he can naturally understand that if the patented medicine can be made, he dare not say that he is rich, at least the wealthy party will have no problem of.

And... Shen Yi has already tried in the central government, and he is very likely to become an official in the future.

Working for the official, the future is boundless.

Therefore, he was willing to spend most of the income he earned during this period of time and go to the capital with Shen Yi.

Shen Qilang shook his head resolutely, he looked at Xu Fu.

"Little Xu..."

Hearing this title, Xu Fu was taken aback, obviously a little novel about this title.

Seeing his expression, Shen Yi smiled: "Can I call you that?"

Xu Fu nodded.

"Okay, you can do whatever you want, my lord."

Shen Yi hummed, and continued: "Since we have ordered 50-[-]% in advance, then we can't break the rules. Although I don't know how much you have earned during this period, it is estimated that it will not be too little. What about the other five children? It can’t just be divided into [-] taels.”

"I take my money to go to the capital, there is no problem, you take your money to go to the capital, there is no problem, but the two of us can't take the money that those children deserve, or even if we take it, we have to tell us in advance They said, with their consent."

Shen Yi looked at Xu Fu, smiled and said: "You want to do things with me, there's nothing wrong with that, but since I've set a share, I have to follow the rules, and you have to follow the rules. If you follow your own ideas, maybe Before you know it, there will be a gap, and maybe they will turn against each other in the future."

Having said that, Shen Yi paused and looked at Xu Fu.

"And you, you should also pay attention to handling the relationship with them. I know that you have been kind to them and have taken care of them in the past few years, but they can remember these kindnesses in their hearts, but you try not to remember them. After all, I also did something, and I should share the money with them as I should."

"Money is money. Don't make decisions for anyone. Even if it's my little sister's money, where it goes and how it is spent, you have to tell her clearly."

Xu Fu froze in place, without speaking for a long time.

After all, he is still young. Although he is young and mature, Shen Yi still has to teach him many things.

"I met you, and you met them, it's all fate, but in comparison, your relationship with them must be stronger. Since it is a relationship, you must manage it well, and don't wait for a few years to get better. But you are getting farther and farther away from them."

After saying this, Shen Yi patted Xu Fu on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "It took me a long time to understand these words, and now I tell you, you may not be able to understand, but you must remember them well In my heart, when I am free, I will settle accounts, they are young, and the money can be kept with you, but it is their money, and you have to talk to them when you want to use it."

Xu Fu stood on the spot, thought for a while, then cupped his hands to Shen Yi and said, "Thank you for your guidance, my lord."

Shen Yi's sentiments are something that he spent ten years trying to understand when he was in a small business in his previous life. Although his business is not big, it can only be said that he has made a small achievement in the past ten years, but the brothers who started the business together at the beginning They, basically no one followed him to the end, and each of them drifted away.

Although Shen Yi led them to earn money, it didn't end well in the end.

Originally, there was no need to say these words to Xu Fu, but seeing these little guys, Shen Yi inevitably thought of the buddies in his previous life, and felt a little emotional.

"I am two years older than you, and I have read a few books more than you. I will teach you what I can teach you."

Shen Yi smiled and said: "After two years, you have grown up, if there is anything you can teach me, you should not hesitate to teach me."

"Don't dare."

At this point, Shen Yi had almost finished what he wanted to say. Before leaving, he looked back at Xu Fu and said with a smile: "The Chinese New Year is only a month away. You might as well go out and buy more Spring Festival couplets and peach charms during this time." , New Year pictures and the like."

Xu Fu was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "My lord, the prices of these things have risen this season, and you can only earn some money by making them yourself. If we go to buy them, it may be difficult to make money by selling them..."

Shen Yi shook his head slightly, and said, "It's not for sale, it's for giving away."

"In a few days, I will teach you a new way of making a living. We will sell them in the twelfth lunar month. When others buy our things, we will give them Spring Festival couplets, New Year pictures and so on."

Shen Qilang chuckled: "When the time comes, the business is sure to be booming."

It cannot be said that the concept of marketing does not exist in this era, but it must not be perfect. At most, it is only a prototype. For example, this kind of means of even buying and giving away is still rare in this era.

Everyone likes to take advantage, especially the practical little advantages like Spring Festival couplets and New Year pictures.

Although Xu Fu couldn't figure it out for a while, he still nodded and said, "I've written down your son's instructions. I'll go out and buy more Spring Festival couplets and New Year pictures this afternoon."

"Buy more."

Shen Yi lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "New Year's paintings and Spring Festival couplets, peach charms, each one, buy four or five hundred copies, if you are not willing, then pay from my money."

Xu Fu bowed his head again: "I see."

Shen Yi nodded slightly, and left the small courtyard.

After leaving the small courtyard, Shen Yi returned to his home.

He is a person who tends to stay at home. Although he occasionally goes out on weekdays, he likes to stay at home alone most of the time and do things he likes to do.

For example, try to restore some food from the previous life.

It's not about making money.

In other words, it's not all about making money.

Although he is Shen Yi, he is not completely Shen Yi. Sometimes, he will think of another season, his parents, and younger siblings in that world.

Cooking some food from that world would give him some relief.

Just as Mr. Shen was tinkering with food in his own home, there was another knock on the door of the house.

Shen Qilang put down the kitchen knife in his hand, wiped his hands, then walked towards the door, opened the door and saw a young boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, the young boy was wearing a pair of straw sandals, and his clothes were a bit worn out, most likely from a farmer's family in the suburbs of the city son.

The young boy looked at Shen Yi and asked, "Is that Mr. Shen Yi?"

Shen Yi nodded, smiled and said, "What's the matter?"

"The little one is on errands to deliver letters."

He took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Shen Yi.

"It's a letter from Ganquan Academy to Mr. Shen."

Shen Yi took the letter, took out a few copper coins from his sleeve, and handed them to the young man.

The young man quickly waved his hand: "My lord, the academy has already given you money."

"I gave it to you."

Shen Yi insisted on giving the money, sent the young boy away, and then opened the letter.

The letter was from Master Lu.

It roughly means that if Shen Yi has nothing to do in the city, let him go back to the academy.

Shen Yi put away the letter and looked in the direction of the academy, feeling a little curious.

The government examination is over, what else can I find in the academy?
