Chapter 2008: Make a fortune
"Madam, Xiao Axe and the others have been going to the brick kiln to make brick embryos for the past few days. They can get a penny for ten brick embryos. They make many. A group of half-grown children can make two thousand brick embryos in an hour. After the work is done, As long as I can get wages, my wife has to give out more than one tael of silver every day... But until today, no one has come to our guardhouse to buy bricks. If we continue to pay like this, my wife's dowry will not be able to withstand such expenditure, even if it is a gold mountain. of."
Mother Gaofen felt very sad. She knew that Gu Jinli had money, but no matter how rich he was, he couldn't waste it like this.
"Madam, Xiaoxi and the others live in the health center. Madam has given them a lot of subsidies to do some work without having to pay them any more wages." Gaofen Niang said: "In the past, when we were in Junhu Village, those thousands of households Madam and Mrs. Baihu often ask us to work, but we are not paid."
If you dont do well, you will be beaten and scolded.
What's even worse is that when some ladies from Qianhu or Baihu see beautiful girls from military families, they will take advantage of them and give them to rich families to be raped in the mountains in exchange for benefits.
Gu Jinli became angry when he heard this: "Do you think our green bricks can't be sold?!"
Seeing that she was angry, Mrs. Gaofen wanted to say a few nice words, but her temper was like this and she would not say flattery. She nodded sincerely: "Well, if this continues, Madam's brick kiln will really lose money."
ah!
Gu Jinli was so angry that the big red fruit in his hand was no longer sweet.
Gaofen Niang also suggested: "Madam, don't give Xiaoxe their wages yet, let's wait until there is business."
If you have no business and pay wages like this, you will really lose money.
Gu Jinli is about to explode, why do you look down on my business so much?
Aunt Yu quickly comforted her: "Madam, don't be angry. As soon as the news spreads that your Excellency is partnering with General Jiang and the Zhong family in the porcelain business, there will be an endless stream of people coming to ask for green bricks. Madam will make a lot of money by then. It will be a loss.
Gu Jinli nodded: "Mommy is right, these green bricks are in short supply, and someone will definitely come to ask for them."
And she was right, after noon, someone really came to buy green bricks.
The visitor is the Feng family from Shaliuwei.
The ones who came were still Butler Feng and Nanny Feng.
Mother Feng was brought in by Aunt Xiong and met Gu Jinli.
nanny Feng finally saw Gu Jinli, and she was a bit speechless for a moment... Mrs. Qin really loves money. The last time they came to apologize, she didn't even see them and only accepted the apology.
This time I heard that she was here to buy green bricks, so I immediately had her brought in.
I have met Mrs. Qin, old slave. Aunt Feng saluted Gu Jinli and said hello.
Gu Jinli said with a smile: "Mother Feng, there is no need to be polite, please sit down quickly."
He asked again: "I heard that you are here to buy green bricks this time. How much do you want to buy? When do you want it?"
Looking at Gu Jinlis sweet smile, Grandma Feng couldnt believe that this was the Mrs. Qin who was extremely unflattering.
But Grandma Feng learned her lesson last time and did not dare to show any disrespect. She said respectfully: "To Mrs. Qin, our guardhouse needs to build a big house for Mrs. Qin to live in, and also build a new fire pit, which requires a lot of blue bricks." Ill buy 50,000 yuan for the time being, and if its not enough, Ill add more later.
As for when to...
"As soon as the green bricks are fired, our guardhouse will be taken away." Aunt Feng explained: "In a while, a group of new soldiers will come to the guardhouse, and many relatives will follow, so we have to work hard to build them for them. A new fire kang. Its still cold now, living in a tent, life would be very difficult without a new fire kang.
Gu Jinli nodded: "Fifty thousand yuan is not much, but it can be made. However, the price of green bricks here is more expensive than the ones back home. I wonder if the Feng family is willing to accept the price?"
In He'an Prefecture, the most expensive piece of green brick is eight cents. When her family was building a shop, Chang Errui's family even gave her a preferential price, which cost only four cents for a piece of green brick.
"Due to the war here, there are few people who know how to make green bricks. The price is eighteen cents per piece, not counting the shipping cost. If we need to deliver goods, we will have to pay more, which is twenty-two cents per piece." He said: "This price was set after we went to the brick kiln in Mu County to inquire. It is two cents cheaper than the brick kiln in Mu County."
The Feng family bought green bricks in Mu County, and the price was indeed more expensive than those from Changliangwei.
But because their family had a family of one thousand, the brick kiln also gave them a preferential price, which was the same as the price given by Gu Jinli.
But Butler Feng and Nanny Feng have received orders from Feng Qianhu, and they must complete this green brick business!
Just because Feng Qianhu received the news that Qin Sanlang and General Jiang formed a partnership in the porcelain business, General Jiang even lent his own soldiers to Qin Sanlang.
This relationship has become so good that Feng Qianhu cannot catch up.
Feng Qianhu was very scared. He wanted to break up with Qin Sanlang before, but now he didn't dare to. He just wanted to have a good relationship with Qin Sanlang by buying green bricks.
Through this incident, let General Jiang know that he has a good relationship with Qin Sanlang, and let General Jiang stop being angry that he and Zhuang Qianhu caused a stumbling block for Changliang Wei.
Mother Feng agreed immediately: "Not counting the shipping fee, a brick costs eighteen cents. The price is indeed a good deal. The Feng family bought it. Mrs. Qin, let's sign the deed and finalize the deal."
After speaking, he took out a banknote, handed it to Granny Tao next to him, and said to Gu Jinli, "Mrs. Qin, this is the deposit."
Gu Jinli: "... Just give me a deposit, don't you go and see the green bricks first?"
Mr. Feng smiled and said: "If Mrs. Qin dares to sell the green bricks, the green bricks must be good. The Feng family trusts Chang Liang Wei."
Gu Jinli nodded after hearing this, and then Grandma Tao took the banknote and handed it to Gu Jinli.
Gu Jinli looked at the dazzling words five hundred and two words on it, smiled, and immediately told Aunt Tao: "Auntie, write the deed, and we will sign the contract right away."
Yes. Grandma Tao took a pen and paper and quickly wrote down a deed.
Gu Jinli signed and pressed his fingerprint.
Nanny Feng took the deed and saw a line written on it: Those who come to transport green bricks are not allowed to enter the guardhouse with vehicles. People from the guardhouse need to transport the green bricks out of the gate.
This is really prudent.
Even though she added such a sentence, Grandma Feng still took out the Feng family seal, stamped it on it, and pressed her own fingerprint to prove that she handled the matter.
Gu Jinli and Nanny Feng put away a deed and told Nanny Tao: "Nanny, take Nanny Feng to the brick kiln to see the green bricks."
Yes. Aunt Tao stood up and smiled at Aunt Feng: Old sister, please.
"Okay, thank you, sister." After giving a salute to Gu Jinli, Grandma Feng followed Grandma Tao and left to the brick kiln.
The Feng family came to buy green bricks and bought 50,000 yuan at once, and gave them 500 taels of silver notes. Soon the news spread throughout the guardhouse.
The relatives of the guardhouse were crazy with joy.
Oh my God, we have really made money from the green bricks of our guardhouse. We have made a full five hundred taels. We have made a fortune. We have really made a fortune this time!
"This is just the first batch. I heard that the Feng family's wife is coming. The Feng family will build a big house with seven jins and a few small houses for concubines to live in. Those servants with dignity will also live in a blue brick house. Tile Fang will continue to buy green bricks from us in the future, and we can still make a lot of money!"
