The Story of Dafujin Parenting in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 138 Dowry Shop 1
Now that the first month of the 32nd year of Kangxi has passed, the filial piety period of Si Age Yinzhen and Si Fujin is over.

The fourth elder brother got married early, and is only 15 years old now, and is still in the period of changing his voice.

Si Fujin married Si Age at the age of 10, and now she is still a 12-year-old little girl.

Today is March in the 32nd year of Kangxi,
This year Huang Ama brought everyone to Changchun Garden early, and the princes naturally followed.

Because Si Fujin hadn't participated in the gatherings between his sisters-in-law before the filial piety period, so not long after arriving in the garden, he posted posts to the prince Fujins.

Dong Hui took out a gold-plated post, gave a little blessing, and said, "Fujin, this servant is Si Fujin's post, take a look."

He Zhuo wiped his hands, took the post, and flipped through it. The post was stamped with gold, which is very impressive.

Although the words in the post were correct and immature, they were not bad among women, and it was written by Si Fujin.

You must know that many Manchu women, even nobles, are not very literate, they can only read the account books.

Si Fujin was young, and his pen was always a bit soft, but it was considered good if he could write like this.

"Sifu Jin is out of the filial piety period, so naturally he has to show his face. The post said that it was for viewing flowers. It said that Si Fujin had a new camellia. 'Er Qiao', let's go to enjoy the flowers."

He Zhuo put down the post and said to Dong Hui: "Dong Hui, you go back and say I will be there on time."

After Dong Hui went out, Nanny Shi lifted the curtain and walked in, bowing solemnly: "Fu Jin, there are people from your dowry shop, those three shops on Gulou East Street, their master wants to take a job this year. The lease will not be renewed when it expires in September, come and tell us in advance."

He Zhuo glanced at Nanny Shi and asked, "These shops on Gulou East Street, the ones that rent money for 600 silver per shop a year?"

Nanny Shi stood beside He Zhuo: "Yes, it's due in September this year, please let us know in advance."

He Zhuo nodded: "No problem, the location is good, I'm not afraid that no one will rent it, just rent it out when the time comes."

Madam Shi sees that the dowry shops of Sanfujin and Sifujin are well-managed, but she doesn't care about Fujin herself. Such a good dowry shop can be rented out for several years.
The location is very prosperous, the consumption is medium, and there are a lot of people every day.

Thinking of this, Madam Shi couldn't help but said: "In my servant's opinion, Fujin can just take back the shop, and we can make a living by ourselves. The shop is in a good location, so we won't lose money."

He Zhuo froze for a moment, it's not that he hadn't thought about it, but she was too lazy to manage these things, troublesome.

Of course, knowing that Mammy was doing it for her own good, she said:

"Making a living? I can't think of making a living at this moment. What does the original family do?"

"Fu Jin, our shop is leased to Mr. Liu's family. They have two shops to build restaurants, and one shop to make snacks and roasted seeds and nuts."

He Zhuo let out an "oh" and stopped talking.

Sister Shi saw that her Fujin had no more to do, so she was worried for her, it would be impossible to just sit and eat like this,

Although Fujin’s dowry fields are promising, and there is a cloth shop, grain store, and restaurant, these are not profitable. The total is 3500 taels a year, plus the rent of the three shops is 1800 taels a year, which is not enough for anything. .

Nanny Shi rolled her eyes and said:

"Fujin, my servant heard that Sifujin's natal family gave Sifujin a dowry shop, but it is making a lot of money every day.
This statement is a bit exaggerated, but the income of the shop is at least 1 taels a year, and the future of Zhuangzi. We still have a few elder brothers, and we will need money in the future. "

Mammy reminded kindly.

These promises seem to be a lot, but they will be stretched in real use. After all, after marriage, especially in the palace, gift giving is a costly item.

But Hezhuo is okay, and the gift basically doesn't cost money.

So in the past few years, all these prospects and achievements have been saved. In fact, there is no place to spend money in the palace, and there are rules for food and clothing.

Whether it's gifts from elders in the palace, between princes and princesses, or families or clans outside the palace.Regarding the big head of gift giving, He Zhuo actually didn't spend any money, so there was nothing to spend money on.

Isn't this money saved?

So not counting the gold and silver in the storage ring, just the future of the dowry, the portion of the prince Fujin, the elder brother of the emperor, and the portion of the emperor's grandson are basically not spent, and they are all put away.It's all cash that can be taken out immediately.
