No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

Chapter 624 Cost
"Uncle, of course you can make money. You see, the place chosen by the old lady is an open part of the garden, and it is also a place with excellent scenery. As you said, there is a room in the library for tea. First, it occupies the library. Second, it also affects other people's study. Look, this area is on the side of the library, at the bend of the water. There is a big locust tree. There are a few tables under the tree. It can be set up as a tea room. Small tables can be used. You can play chess under the tree by setting up a chess board and ordering a pot of tea. The tea can be refilled with hot water for free. In this way, you can have fun without disturbing the people in the hall..." Lin Daiyu pointed to the sand table and said to herself. idea.

Jia Fen and the others nodded repeatedly, but did not interrupt. Although they had not discussed it, they were all taught by the old lady herself, and their way of thinking was actually the same. As soon as Lin Daiyu said it, everyone could follow the train of thought.

After Daiyu finished speaking, Jiashe and the others now knew why the old lady prepared these pavilions. Each pavilion has a different function. The one in the library sells tea, and it sells good tea. The consumption here is high, and for those who just want to quench their thirst, each building has a designated tea room with a waiter dedicated to serving tea. Not within these target groups. As I said before, the library is for the public. Those who can afford to read books and have time to play chess are ordinary people? It’s not expensive here, but where is it expensive?

Over at the racecourse, there are all kinds of equipment. For example, you can rent horses and riding gear, and there are also some riding accessories for sale. For example, horse whips, horse pedals, dust sweepers, and small sugar cubes and carrots to coax the horse. You can be generous and frugal...

Now they really believed that this garden could really make money, but Jia She covered his face.

"Mother, can you teach your children this way?" Jia She wanted to die. Lin Daiyu was already like this. He absolutely believed that Jia Ying and Jia Fen were not much better. He just took a peek and saw that Jia Ying and Jia Fen were obviously both. Very indifferent, what does this mean? It shows that the old lady taught the same thing, and they all learned it.

"They are better than you. At least I won't worry about them starving to death in the future." Ou Mengmeng gave Jia She a roll of her eyes.

"Uncle and Brother Rong are good people. They always want to give the students better things. My niece admires this very much." Lin Daiyu said hurriedly.

"It means you are stupid. There was obviously a more economical way, but in the end you still used the most expensive one." Ou Mengmeng translated.

"Grandma!" Lin Daiyu was about to jump. Fortunately, they only had their own family here, otherwise, they really wouldn't be able to survive. But yes, if it weren't for their own family members, they wouldn't be able to sit together. Lin Daiyu emphasized, "I really think uncles and Brother Rong did an excellent job, right, second sister and third sister."

"Yes, my father and Brother Rong are really good at cost control. As the old lady said, leave a few things open in life so that we can meet each other easily in the future. This is also the reason why they can make friends, which cannot be bought with money. , the sisters really admire him for this." Jia Ying nodded hurriedly, this is her biological father, she really can't offend him.

Ou Mengmeng looked up to the sky. Sure enough, Jia Ying had a very high emotional intelligence. What a beautiful statement.

As for the cost, what Jia She and the others can think of is the quota for students. In the past, the Jia family only studied for their own people, and what they wanted was two snacks a day. Pens and inks have their own quotas. For example, in the book, Baoyu's private school earns eighty taels of silver a month. Then I went to the clan school and earned two taels of silver a month for pen and ink. But this is Jia Baoyu. Two taels of silver from the clan school can last the whole class of twenty people for seven or eight days.

So when Jia She and the others were in charge, Jia She and Jia Zhen also wanted to save costs. When they went out to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstones, they had to ask around to find ones that were better than ordinary private schools, but cheaper. Considering that after receiving so much money from others, of course the ration should be improved;
In order to show that their family is reasonably expensive, they asked Zhao Chong and his colleagues to provide regular physical examinations for these little brats. If they have bruises or colds, they will receive free medical treatment. No school can do this. Of course, this is also an important income for Zhao Chong and his medical clinic every year.

There are also tables, chairs, benches, and school uniforms needed in the school, which were made by the servants and women of Ningfu; also when it was first built, the snacks in the school were not made well, and then the kitchens in Ningrong and Rongfu were used to prepare them, because At that time, Ningrong's second mansion was very strict about the internal accounts. Even if it was for a clan school, the accounts must be clear, including the overtime pay for the cooks and the cost of food ingredients. Later, the school expanded the cafeteria. , but the rice, flour, grain and oil are all sent from Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing in Rongfu, which is a normal business. The reservation is based on a quota per person, but it is also a fixed income.

These two pieces of money are also part of the income of Ningrong's second house. It’s considered an internal circulation of the economy!

Every year, the surplus income is used to buy sacrificial fields, and the sacrificial fields also have income. In addition to distributing some to the clan members every year, the rest continues to be invested, and the income of clan studies is also increasing year by year. This year, it will be collected When it is full, 60,000 taels will be received at one time. But the students' expenses are fixed, otherwise, they can build this big school at will.

"Speaking of which, Zheng'er, you go back and discuss it. The school is now on the right track and has a regular teacher. So, the salary of the full-time teacher cannot be the same as before and we can't just make do with it.

Moreover, there must be a reward and punishment mechanism. Those who can teach for more than ten years are considered to have tenure. When you are sixty years old, even if you retire, you will have your original salary as a pension every month.

Of course, the dormitory is only for working gentlemen. When you retire, you have to leave the dormitory. These must be written into the charter and cannot be changed.

As for the old masters like Master Meng who come to school to have fun, don't use it in vain. At least give them some allowances, three festivals, and two rites, so that everyone can have fun together when they celebrate their birthdays. These must be formed into a system, don’t be stingy.

Looking back, these old men are gone, and you have to find new old men to come back, which is equivalent to buying horse bones for a thousand dollars. The money that should be spent and the money that should be saved should be clearly distinguished. "

Ou Mengmeng has wanted to say this for a long time. In fact, the official teachers in the school are not very well paid, because they are looking for practical examples, and they are not allowed to have any ideas. They teach strictly according to the Jia family’s lesson plans, and you don’t do anything else, so there are just too many. Just a person who takes care of people.

The old gentlemen in the school before were all motivated by love, but people should not be used cheaply. The old lady often asked Jia Zheng to coax these people, and Ou Mengmeng also practiced etiquette.

Now that the school is on the right track, these costs must be recorded, and we must begin to move away from our own influence.

Full-time gentlemen must hire good ones, and older gentlemen must pay attention to backup. Don’t just think about making money, first think about how to spend your money better!
Today, people from my workplace went to Wuhan University to see the cherry blossoms. I was afraid of being exposed to the sun, so I didn’t go. Thinking about it, I should actually go. I’d like to get some calcium!
