"I knew you would say that. I have bargained for you. The two parties are 5000 taels."

Lin Pingzhan chuckled, this price, but he only talked about the benefits of herbal tea for relieving summer heat.

Otherwise, His Highness would not let go.

Because he didn't really want to use this prescription to open a workshop for business.

This money is his own.

5000 taels is a drop in the bucket for him, but he just wants to cry and be poor, so he can only say that he is in a hurry.

"5000 taels, and an embroidered picture of plum blossoms in snowy weather as a screen, so I don't have to go out to enjoy the plum blossoms in winter."

Thinking that His Highness had given him a task, he could only ask for it with a smile.

If it doesn't work, he can only give up his own one.

Who made him be His Royal Highness's younger brother, and even his cousin's elder brother.

The income of 5000 taels is what my cousin needs.

"5000 taels can be traded, but you tell him that the pills I sold him back then were five yuan a piece."

Lu Weiyu frowned slightly, feeling a little displeased with that guy's stinginess.

"That's [-] pills for one party, and [-] pills for the two parties, let alone the cost, he can ask me to buy [-] pills."

"Sister...you are selling the price. The current price can only be calculated according to the cost."

Lin Pingzhan had no choice but to remind the little girl.

It's really in the eyes of money!

This impolite character in bargaining is inexplicably similar to His Royal Highness.

Lu Weiyu rubbed his nose, chuckled and said: "Even my cousin can't be shocked, it seems that I can't help that fellow."

Without paying attention, he said the "that guy" in his heart.

Lin Pingzhan was so frightened that he hurriedly warned.

"Silly girl, how can you say that about people, it's not right for people to hear!"

"The reputation of Miss Bofu is gone."

Thinking that my cousin didn't know His Highness, I added another sentence.

Lu Weiyu shrank her neck, feeling a little guilty.

"Let's make a decision like this. 5000 taels of silver will buy the right to use two prescriptions, and I will also give you a picture of plum blossom embroidery, the kind that will be used as a screen in the middle hall."

Lin Pingzhan saw that she knew how to measure, so he didn't say much, and sighed, "I have made several trips to this business."

"Okay, let's close the deal. It's just the embroidery... and it's so big, I have to give me 100 taels of silver."

Lu Weiyu saw that her eldest cousin was indeed running back and forth for her affairs, and it was really hard work, so she didn't care about the price.

5000 taels is a lot, but her prescriptions are not ordinary small prescriptions. They only sell for 500 taels, which is actually very cheap.

"100 taels of silver, I will help you get it, if he doesn't give it, I will give it to you."

When Lin Pingzhan saw her let go, why would he care about 100 taels of silver?

I just want to quickly negotiate a deal, get the prescription and go back to deal with business.

So Lu Weiyu handed over two prescriptions, earning 5000 taels of silver angrily, and happily counted the silver.

Adding this sum, she now has more than 700 taels of silver on hand.

"I'm leaving, so hurry up and embroider. After finishing my mother's painting, it will be my turn, right?"

Lin Pingzhan put away the prescription and reminded Lu Weiyu.

Lu Weiyu nodded, but shook her head again.

"I just finished embroidering a piece, so naturally I have to rest for two days, otherwise my eyes can't bear it, I'm still so young, what should I do if I'm blind?"

When she said that, how could Lin Pingzhan dare to urge him?

"Then you can figure it out, take care of yourself, don't be really blind, what if you can't count the money in the future?"

After Lin Pingzhan finished speaking, he picked up the small bundle on the table and strode away.

If I don't leave, I'm afraid my cousin will chase him out and beat him after he reacts!

"Hmph! If it weren't for the fact that you are making money for me, you would have to charge 100 taels of silver for your embroidery!"

Lu Weiyu chased after her and put down her harsh words.

Lin Pingzhan was so frightened that he turned around and made a bow, begging for peace, "Then thank you cousin first!"

Lu Weiyu saw that he had given up, she laughed and waved her hand, turned around and went back to the study to draw new patterns.

More than 3000 taels of silver, still far from a boutique shop.

But it can hold many snack shops or small grocery stores.

Even if it is a restaurant on Second Street or Third Street, two restaurants can be rented and operated.

It's just that there are so many restaurants in the capital.

If it does not have its own characteristics and strong financial support, and only operates in the form of renting shops, the risk is actually very high.

After drawing the pattern, she was not in a hurry to stretch the embroidery cloth again.

Instead, he sat at the table with his elbows propped on his chin, thinking deeply.

If you want to run a large boutique store with abundant inventory, you may need more than 5 taels to buy a store, purchase goods, and operate it.

It is best to have a reserve fund of 10 taels before you can do it with confidence.

If you don't use the profits from other industries within the year and only rely on the distribution of bamboo green apricot white and green pear wine, it may not be enough.

But if it does not open within the year, it will not be able to keep up with the New Year's goods business.

This is the capital.

Since every inch of land is very expensive, good shops are expensive, and boutique shops are also doing rich business.

Of course, we must also catch up with the business around the end of the year.

In other words, business should be booming in the winter months.

Rich people don't wait until the twelfth lunar month to make a fuss.

Clothes and jewelry, rouge and gouache, furniture decorations, porcelain, jade, etc., have long been placed.

A family like Bofu also buys a lot of them a year.

It's just that Bo's house has its own business, and the profit will be given to its own shop.

Even Mrs. Lu's boutique shop will not compete for the business of the uncle's mansion.

And these are actually a big expense in the general affairs of the uncle's mansion.

Just like a few days ago, housekeeper Zhou wanted to buy summer clothes, window screens, round fans, etc., and he also had his own shop to buy them.

It's just that a shop is a shop, and Bo's house is Bo's house, and the two will not be mixed together.

That is to say, Bo's House also has to take cash to buy in the shop, and it doesn't even pay on credit.

The money earned by the shop is the same as that earned by other mansions.

So, in what way and with what strategy will she enter the boutique shops in the wealthy circle of the capital?
When a boutique shop appeared in the dowry list in her previous life, she had thought about it and planned for it.

For rouge and gouache, she has two prescriptions on hand, and she can make her own rouge powder cream suitable for different people.

There are also balms extracted from flowers, which can be worn in a sachet or used to smoke clothes.

This is different from the fragrant pancakes sold in Bofu.

With this is the feature that her boutique shop can focus on.

And she is good at painting and embroidery, so she naturally has a variety of good-looking ready-to-wear styles in her hands.

At that time, you can invite embroiderers and needlework masters to make new styles of dresses.

Women's dresses will be the business that consumes the most clothing materials and sells the most in four seasons.

Men's clothes are also expensive, but they don't have an advantage in sales compared to women's skirts.

Women naturally love beauty, while men prefer to show off their wealth and status. The goal of both is status.

And her goal is to do both business.

These things are stored in her mind, and she will not take them out in advance.

But if she wants to buy a boutique shop of her own, and don't let people know, how long will she save her capital?
Currently, the only ones who know that she wants to open a boutique shop are her parents and Lin Shenghua.

Since the capital is insufficient, then continue to find ways to earn capital.

I can't go to my ancestors to borrow money again.

She knew after taking over the house.

The annual expenses of the ancestors are only 10 taels of silver allocated from the mansion, and Zhuangzi's own output.

If she opens her mouth and wants to borrow 10 taels, I am afraid that her ancestors will be frightened, and her father will not dare to let her rush forward.

May passed, and on the first day of June, Mrs. Lu led a group of people to Xiangyun Temple to offer incense, and returned to the capital in the evening.

Lu Tianyao got the news in advance and met someone on the way to Xiangyun Temple.

Looking at my mother through the car window, she is in good spirits, and the conversation is less of the old anger in the mansion, and a little more cheerful.

He was also pleased.

My mother has kept festivals in Suxintang for so many years.

Now I can go out of the house to see a wider and more free world, and my heart is full of sunshine instead of repeating the boring life step by step.

Your spirit will naturally improve as well.

He said through the car window that he went to Yangcheng himself a while ago and met his grandmother, grandmother and uncle.

Knowing that he was going to send his mother back to live for a while, he was very happy, and my grandmother cried.

Speaking of this, Mrs. Lu's eyes were also red, and she murmured: "I haven't seen my parents for 20 years. Fortunately, they are healthy."

"Why don't you pick them up to live in the capital first?" Mrs. Lu came back to her senses and looked at her son puzzled.

"As I mentioned, they don't want to say that they don't like the capital city, that it's rich and rich, and that people have ulterior motives. It's not suitable for their honest people."

Lu Tianyao helplessly explained the reason.

Mrs. Lu immediately understood, her natal parents and brothers, aren't that kind of people.

Looking back on the past, every little bit of being at her natal home when she was young came to mind, Mrs. Lu was looking forward to going back to her natal home.

It's just... living on Zhuangzi for almost a month is also very tiring.

She needs to rest for a while, pack her luggage, and prepare gifts to bring back to her mother's house. It takes time.

There is also the Ghost Festival to burn paper, offer incense, and chant scriptures for her late husband Lu Tingzhi.

I'm afraid I'll have to go back in late July.

Listening to her muttering these things, Aunt Zhou hurriedly laughed and said, "My sister will be back in late July, and I will be back in late July, too."

"July and a half, I still come to burn paper ingots with my sister."

In Zhuangzi these days, everyone will not put on the airs of the old lady.

They will also cook a few dishes together, or go for a walk on the ridge.

I even went around in the mountains and forests, and I was surprised to see the little rabbit passing by.

The dead heart that has been trapped in the back house for so many years seems to have returned to its youth.

Some are in her natal family, and some are newly married in the uncle's house...

It's just that Aunt Zhou is thoughtful, and she only mentions how she was when she was a child, which is all interesting.

But he didn't say a word about how to compete for favor with Lu Tingzhi.

Aunt Zhou had a good time back then.

But she is smarter than Yang's, knows how to restrain herself, and is also submissive in front of the main room.

Therefore, Mrs. Lu has been treating her well.

Although there were conflicts and temper tantrums, Lu Tingzhi left early.

Without their husbands, they each had sons, and then the concubine was separated from the uncle's house and became a side branch.

All the thoughts and contradictions seemed to disappear at once.

The old sisters who have been walking around for so many years are getting better again.

Everyone was chatting happily, but Lu Tianyao had no chance to talk about Yang's affairs with his mother.
