The next day, Gu Rao and Bie Ye got up early in the morning, and after a simple breakfast, they opened the door for business, and guests came as soon as the door opened.

Maybe it's because it didn't open yesterday, and the customers who didn't eat yesterday are a little retaliatory today, which is much more generous than before.

Some milk tea, desserts and mochi all ordered one.

Business was good all morning.

At the end of the day, the shop was finally not so busy, and the shop was guarded by Bie Ye, while Gu Rao went out to meet fate.
-
Gao Caitong waited for a long time, and said, "I have a special time today, talking in the store is too boring, let's go to Yunlailou to have dinner and talk."

"I'm here to do things today."

Gu Rao shook his head.

"I've already had lunch, and I'm not hungry yet. Besides, I have some festivals with the shopkeeper of Yunlailou, so I won't go to that restaurant for dinner."

Gao Caitong was stunned for a moment, and then his expression became a little embarrassed.

"I didn't know that you had a feud with Guanshi Zhou before, and he probably didn't remember your name, so he also registered it."

"Fortunately, the registration has not started yet, and his money will be confiscated. If you don't want to teach him, then I will not notify him of the registration time."

Gu Rao did not expect this development.

"Why don't you make money if you have money?"

"He can't make money from me, but I can make money from him. I still have to notify him about the registration, but I don't know if he wants to continue studying after seeing me."

"When signing up, tell those people in advance that after paying the tuition fee, no matter whether they go to study or not, the registration fee will not be refunded."

Gao Caitong, "..."

Although I don't know what the rift between Gu Rao and Zhou Zheng is, it's fine if Zhou Zheng doesn't remember Gu Rao, but if Zhou Zheng still remembers her, he probably won't want to continue learning from her.

He has already imagined Zhou Zheng, your expression as if you ate a fly.

The last one added, the non-refundable tuition fee, is not made specifically for Zhou Zheng, is it?
Seeing Gao Caitong's strange expression, Gu Rao knew what he was thinking, and explained, "Although part of it is to tease him, even if there is no him, this rule must be explained to those people in advance. of."

"Otherwise, after studying for a period of time, some people become lazy and don't want to continue studying. What if they ask me to refund the tuition?"

"Isn't the previous time teaching them in vain?"

After thinking for a while, he added, "For the sake of fairness, they can have a three-day trial opportunity. If they don't want to continue studying within three days, they can choose to refund the tuition fee. Once it exceeds three days, it doesn't matter whether they have completed a semester or not." If it is full, the tuition fee will not be refunded."

In this way, it seems that Zhou Zheng can't be teased, because Zhou Zheng can choose to refund the tuition the moment he sees her.

Although a little regretful, Gu Rao still knew that the overall situation should be the most important.

The little feud with Zhou Zheng was a trivial matter of Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds a long time ago. If Gao Caitong hadn't brought this person ahead of him today, she probably would never have remembered it in her lifetime.

Gao Caitong's mung bean-sized eyes lit up.

"This rule is good!"

"Although I have shown them the formula of addition, they still don't know your strength. Some people are hesitant because of this. With this rule, some people who still have doubts don't have to worry about wasting a lot of money gone."

"Sit down and talk."

Gu Rao sat down.

Gao Caitong quickly ordered Xiaoer to serve tea and pastries.

Gu Rao tasted a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and then said, "I plan to use a quarter, that is, three months as a semester, and divide the year into two semesters, and pay the tuition for one year at a time, which is one tael of silver. The tuition fee for one semester is six hundred cash."

"how do you feel?"

Gao Caitong said, "It's a good idea to divide the year into two semesters, but isn't the tuition fee of only one tael a year too low?"

"If they learn what you teach in a year, wouldn't they only be able to earn a tael of silver from each of them?"

People who want to learn arithmetic seriously are usually businessmen, which limits the group of people who can make money, not to mention that they should only earn money from people who want to learn arithmetic in Wild Boar Town and surrounding villages.

Wild Boar Town is neither big nor small.

Let’s not talk about whether he can recruit 50 people in the end, even if he recruits, if the tuition fee is one tael per person, wouldn’t it be possible for fifty people to earn 50 taels a year?

It's almost the same as the rent of the house!

I can't make a penny, and I'm still wasting a year of time and energy teaching students to learn arithmetic. So, the school is dedicated to doing good deeds?
Gu Rao also thought of this belatedly, and realized that she had thought things too simply.

"If we can recruit two hundred people..."

Gao Caitong's mouth twitched.

"Two hundred people should not be able to recruit, even if two hundred people are recruited, the total annual income is only 50 taels for renting a house for 150 taels a year."

"I get 30 taels of silver a year, but you only get 120 taels of silver a year."

"You only earn so little for a year of hard work?"

Gu Rao felt a little guilty.

She opened this school just to earn some spare money and to increase her income. She can earn 120 taels of silver a year in a side job, which is actually very satisfying.

But Gao Caitong has been busy for so long, and when he has no time later, he has to teach the students instead of himself, and he only gets 30 taels of silver a year, which is a bit unreasonable.

For ordinary people, 30 taels a year is enough, but Gao Caitong’s pawn shop makes a lot of money, so they should not look down on the 30 taels of silver.

"Maybe I didn't make it clear to you. What I plan to implement is a five-day one-off system, and holidays must be taken separately."

"Moreover, there is only one class a day, and the time for a class is only half an hour, sometimes in the morning and sometimes in the afternoon."

"It's somewhat inappropriate to set the tuition too high for such a small amount of time to teach them."

Gao Caitong didn't care.

"What's inappropriate? Not to mention the arithmetic you teach, which has never been seen before. No one can do it except you. It can be regarded as your unique secret. If you buy your unique secret alone, it will cost hundreds of taels Thousands of taels of silver won’t come down!”

"It's cheap for you to charge and teach them by hand."

"Besides, to do business is to be bold and to be able to calculate. There is really nothing to do in a business with less than double the profit."

"Only those small traders will guard that meager profit."

"We have to take the long view."

Gu Rao, "..."

Gao Caitong has a simple and honest appearance. Only after in-depth contact does he know that there is a thousand-year-old fox living under his simple and honest skin.

Sure enough, merchants who can expand their businesses, own their own pawnshops, and other industries are not ordinary people. They all have their own business experience.

Compared with them, I am honest.

Gao Caitong continued, "I didn't point to how much money the school earns, and it's not short of it. The reason why I said this is for your consideration, Master."

"Think about it again."

Gu Rao decided to hand over the problem to Gao Caitong, and said, "Then let's raise it a little bit more. How much do you think the tuition fee is suitable for?"
