I farmed and raised cubs in ancient times

Chapter 20 Li County Magistrate (Jin Tim)

"These are high-quality silk threads, not cheap." Ye Xiaomei wanted to touch them, but she retracted them.

"Isn't it? These colored threads and strips of satin are not easy to dye, so the price is prohibitive."

"Just now, the nets sold by my younger sister are only enough for this bunch of threads, right? So what does Boss Jiang mean?"

"My lady, don't worry, just listen to me, this colored thread and satin are top-quality goods, and I don't expect my lady to buy them back, so we can cooperate here."

Boss Jiang put down the box, and continued: "I can collect a deposit. The two ladies took the silk thread and weaved it into a net before selling it back to our cloth shop. The price must be assessed. After deducting the cost of the silk thread, I will pay the two ladies for extra weaving. cost."

Jiang Zhi nodded after hearing this, Ye Xiaomei pulled the clothes around her waist, Jiang Zhi looked down at Ye Xiaomei.

"Sister-in-law, in case this is an unscrupulous profiteer who squeezes our wages, if the weaving things are not as good as before, there is no way to escape." Ye Xiaomei pulled Jiang Zhi and whispered.

"Sister-in-law will definitely not make you suffer." Jiang Zhi signaled Ye Xiaomei to be calm.

Xin'an County is a small county town with a wharf, and the cloth village business can be sent to various places in Daning, especially Dongdu, by means of merchant ships.

Famous ladies like this kind of thing.

So in any case, the boss of Buzhuang is making a steady profit without losing money.

Jiang Zhi guessed that this cloth shop might be a chain store.

"Boss Jiang's suggestion is very good, but if we cooperate sincerely, we need to establish proof. As for the style of weaving nets, our sisters have their own guarantee. Now I would like to ask Boss Jiang, if these nets use the silk thread provided by Boss Jiang, How much can Boss Jiang pay?" Jiang Zhi asked.

Boss Jiang thought for a moment, took out a small abacus from his cuff, fiddled with it a few times, and then said: "According to 260 Wen for a pinch of silk thread, I will give you [-] Wen for each thread at most."

"I see it like this, the ordinary style of the little sister weaves is 35 Wen, the one with the bag is [-] Wen, and the more complicated style is [-] Wen. In this way, the little girl is working for Boss Jiang, and Boss Jiang pays the little girl for the handwork. , my little girl can make many connections with a handful of threads, I don't know what Boss Jiang wants?" Jiang Zhi looked at Boss Jiang inquiringly.

A pinch of thread is needed for the bag, and two or three threads can be braided with one pinch of common style.

Sometimes tassels are also made.

If this cannot be satisfied, Jiang Zhi feels that there is no profit to be made in doing this, and there is no need to waste time.

Boss Jiang was silent, as if he was thinking about his own profit margin.

In fact, the method proposed by Jiang Zhi is equivalent to providing materials. He can lower the price of raw materials, and set the price for each net. If the style is the same as today, he will sell these nets in Chuzhou. earn more.

"Can you guarantee that what you make meets my requirements?"

"I can assure you that the network I made has never been done before, and it is unique." Ye Xiaomei stood up and said firmly, "I would like to win the award."

"That's fine, so let's just trust the two of you, why don't you use the interest money you sold to our Jiangji cloth shop this time as a deposit, and give this box of silk silk cloth to the two of you for a period of one month. After that, I will be here waiting for the two of you to bring Xin Luozi."

"Thank you, Boss Jiang, but I have one more request, that is, the contract can only be signed for one year, and it will depend on the situation after one year." Jiang Zhi said again.

"Naturally."

Then the two parties signed the contract in duplicate, with fingerprints and private seals affixed.

This time, Ye Xiaomei didn't get any money, but only a box of more valuable colored threads.

She wrapped up the colored thread and put it in the basket, and walked out of the cloth village with Jiang Zhi with her mouth raised.

Jiang Zhi saw that she was unhappy, stretched out her index finger to scratch her pouty mouth, and said with a smile, "What's the matter? Are you unhappy?"

Of course Ye Xiaomei was not happy.

"I worked hard for a long time, but in the end I didn't get a dime."

"Now there is a job where you can get money for free, is my little sister really unhappy?" Jiang Zhi had a faint smile on her lips.

Ye Xiaomei lowered her head and stared at her toes: "Of course I am happy, this is not a waste of work."

"It's okay, let's earn all the money back next month." Jiang Zhi comforted Ye Xiaomei.

The two were walking on the street, and Jiang Zhi had been paying attention to where the sugar should be sold.

White sugar, unlike icing sugar, counts as a fresh and rare thing.Brown sugar costs [-] cents a tael, rare things are more expensive, white sugar sells for [-] cents a tael, and five catties of white sugar can get four pennies.

After many inquiries, the two came to Zhou Ji's grocery store.

This grocery store has a good reputation and is well-known. The most important boss, Zhou Qi, is an honest person.

"Miss, this icing... er no, it's white sugar, how did you get it?" Zhou Qi was astonished physically and mentally after taking a sip of the leftovers of white sugar, and hurriedly asked Jiang Zhi.

"I got it by accident, that's all I got." Jiang Zhi said ambiguously.

Zhou Qi immediately understood, white sugar is here, so don't ask any insider information.Zhou Ji's grocery store has been established in Xin'an County for more than ten years, so Zhou Qi naturally couldn't just inquire about it to tarnish his reputation.

What's more, what if this lady can come up with more?
Zhou Qi has a very unique vision for doing business, and he can tell at a glance that this white sugar is a treasure.

I haven't seen this thing in the whole summer.

He couldn't easily let go of the opportunity to make a fortune.

"How much are these sugar ladies going to give to someone?" Zhou Qi wanted to hear Jiang Zhi's quotation, and if she opened her mouth, she would naturally have to think about it.

At this time, there was a sudden commotion in the street, and the three of them looked outside at the same time.

"Master Li, let's go shopping."

"Ah, yes, your cake today is pretty good."

"Thank you, Mr. Li, for your compliment. The villain is overjoyed. If the adults don't give you a piece of cake, the villains don't take money."

"Hey, no, no, no, I ate it early in the morning." There was a burst of pushing and shoving, and the man called Mr. Li was forced to eat a piece of cake, so he had to take out two big coins and throw them into the copper coin basket of the cake shop.

County magistrate Li chomped on the cake with a helpless face. Besides the cake, he also had a basket of vegetables, fruits and eggs hanging on his body, all of which were given to him by the people.If it weren't for his clothes not being dressed like ordinary people, others would think he was just an ordinary old man who went shopping in the street.

Seeing the county magistrate Li walking towards Zhou Ji's grocery store, Zhou Qi quickly waved to Jiang Zhi, signaling her to wait a little longer.

Jiang Zhi nodded slightly, she had memories of this county magistrate Li.Mr. Li, whose name is Jintian, was transferred to Xin'an County a year ago. He is benevolent, charitable, and has done a lot of practical things, so he is deeply loved by the people.

Every time I go out on the street, I always go out empty-handed and return with a full load, and my wallet is also swept away.

Going back in the morning, in the afternoon, the yamen received spontaneous refunds from the people, which made him very helpless, so he could only work harder to do something useful for the people.

He has only been here for a year, and the weather in Xin'an County is good, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

Li Jintian also vigorously established schools to promote education, but in itself he only did well in official documents, but his literary talents were not outstanding, so he valued educated students in the county.

As a result, a young scholar with potential stocks died accidentally. In the whole Xin'an County, there were only eighteen scholars and six candidates.

How can Lee Kam Tim not be sad?
