Farmer's clever woman busy farming

Chapter 520

"Really?" Shen Kuo looked at the smiling little wife, and couldn't help pinching her little face.

"En." Gu Jiujiu nodded, thinking that Yan Shi was still waiting for them to eat in the kitchen, and said, "Let's go, Mr. Xiang, let's go to the kitchen for dinner."

After finishing speaking, the young couple held hands and went to the kitchen together.

After a simple meal, Gu Jiujiu took a shower and lay down on the bed to calculate the wages that he would give everyone tomorrow.

One day she gave everyone fifty coppers, including tomorrow, a total of six days.

After all, she needs to give everyone three hundred coppers.However, she promised everyone that as long as they can make the persimmons within the time specified by her, then she will give everyone an extra hundred coppers.

So, tomorrow she should give four hundred copper coins to each woman and mother-in-law.

When Shen Kuo returned to the room, he saw his little wife laying on the bed, her two fair calves were so generously exposed.

With thin lips curled up slightly, Shen Kuo walked to the bed, leaned over and looked at Gu Jiujiu, "Xiao Jiu, what are you doing?"

When speaking, Shen Kuo's thin lips brushed against Gu Jiujiu's ears vaguely. Gu Jiujiu felt that the numbness behind her ears was very uncomfortable. She shrank subconsciously, and then she looked at Shen Kuo. He smiled and said, "I'm counting everyone's wages. I've prepared the money tonight, so I can distribute it to everyone tomorrow."

Shen Kuo looked at the numbers Gu Jiujiu calculated on the paper, and seemed to think of something, so he took a bank note from his pocket and handed it to her, "Xiao Jiu, this is a 500 tael bank note, you accept it. Let’s use this bank note to pay everyone tomorrow.”

Gu Jiujiu looked at the banknote in his hand, and asked with a smile, "Sir, where did you get this banknote?"

"Rong Qi gave it to me." As he spoke, Shen Kuo told Gu Jiujiu, "In order to test Rong Qi's business ability, Master Rong gave him the worst pharmacy run by the Rong family. Half a year ago, when Rong Qi just took over the pharmacy, That pharmacy is just an empty shell. Not only is it unable to make ends meet, but it is also suffering serious losses. We have known Rong Qi for many years, and Qin Nuan, the youngest son of the county magistrate, and I found out about Rong Qi's situation, so we gave him the banknote. Qi took the money and said that he would share the monthly profit of the pharmacy with us."

Rong Qi distributed the monthly profit to Shen Kuo and the others. Shen Kuo shared 500 taels, so Qin Nuan also got 500 taels.The profit on the first floor is 1000 taels. So, wouldn't Rong Qi have a profit of 1 taels a month?
Thinking of this, Gu Jiujiu immediately opened his eyes wide and looked at Shen Kuo, "Sir, the pharmacy opened by Rong Qi can earn 1 taels of silver a month?"

Although, Gu Jiujiu thinks that Rong Qi is a shrewd person at first glance, but how can a pharmacy alone earn so much money in a month?

Gu Jiujiu found it incredible.

Shen Kuo was stunned for a moment after hearing Gu Jiujiu's words, then smiled and told her, "Xiao Jiu, 1 taels is not Rong Qi's profit for one month, but half a year's profit."

"How do you say that?" Gu Jiujiu looked at Shen Kuo in puzzlement.

"Rong Qi's pharmacy only makes a profit of more than 1000 taels of silver a month. The county magistrate's youngest son and I thought it would be troublesome to get the silver every month, so we made an agreement with him to get it once every six months. So, I took it back. This money is half a year's profit, not a monthly profit."

"So it's like this." After hearing Shen Kuo's explanation, Gu Jiujiu didn't find it strange.

Rong Qi's medicine store is located in Jin'an City, Jin'an City is prosperous, Rong Qi is a shrewd person, and he is very good at doing business. It is not difficult for him to earn more than 1000 taels of silver a month.
