Chapter 361 Benefiting the family
Zhao Ruxi scratched his head and asked, "How did Mr. Zhang negotiate with the Emperor? How many shares does the Emperor want?"
"Sixty percent." Wu Zong said with a serious expression.
Of course it must be heavy. The emperor took 60%, Master and Master Zhang each took 10%, and the three brothers each took half, leaving half for Zhao Ruxi.
Zhao Ruxi rolled her eyes: "You just praised me for being smart, do you think I will believe your lies? With Master here, the emperor dares to take so many shares, isn't he looking for scolding?"
"Then what's your guess?" Wu Zong asked with great interest.
Zhao Ruxi didn't even think about it: "Twenty percent."
Wu Zong gave a thumbs up and admired from the bottom of his heart: "He is really a genius."
He took out the banknotes and a piece of accounting paper from his arms: "Now, these are the banknotes for the emperor and Mr. Zhang to buy shares. These belong to the master, senior brother, and second senior brother. I will help you get them all."
.”
Kang Shilin and Wu Huaisi both gave money to buy shares, so naturally Xiao Ge and Zhang Changshen would not refuse to give them, in order to lay the groundwork and give the censor a chance to impeach them.
Zhao Ruxi glanced at the piece of paper and found that the emperor gave six thousand taels and the others gave three thousand taels.
"Brother, you only have half a share, just give me one thousand five hundred taels." Zhao Ruxi said, about to return some of the banknotes to Wu Zong.
Wu Zong glared at her: "Even if it is three thousand taels, it is clearly a gift to us. Do we still want to take advantage of you like this? If you want to return it, senior brother, the second senior brother will definitely not buy shares."
Zhao Ruxi had no choice but to give up.
There has been no emperor buying shares in the past, so Zhao Ruxi made conservative estimates for this business. She only planned to make a quick buck. Whether she can continue this business for a long time depends on how greedy the princes are and whether they will go to her.
Reach out.
Someone like the prince who has an old grudge against her cannot extend his hands in her business, so he might have to play tricks on her.
In short, without the emperor as her backer, it would be difficult for her business to expand in the long run. She could only make the current wave of quick money.
But it's different when the emperor becomes a shareholder.
It is impossible for the civil and military officials of the dynasty to not give honor to the emperor, right? Therefore, it was originally expected to sell a thousand units in the capital, but now we can expect to sell two thousand. There are many wealthy merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, and one or two thousand can be digested in that place.
Not to mention other states and counties.
Now that the emperor is giving her six thousand taels of silver, she will be able to give him at least tens of thousands of taels of silver when the time comes. The same is true for master and senior brothers.
The rate of return is so generous, and there is no need to take any risks, so there is no need for her to be embarrassed about accepting their principal now.
She lowered her voice and said: "Senior brother, you have helped me a lot. Junior sister has nothing to repay you. When the time comes for dividends, I will ask someone to give you 10% of the money, and you can't refuse. We are the only ones who can do this."
The two brothers and sisters know it, and Master, Senior Brother, and Second Senior Brother don't even tell them."
Wu Zong wanted to refuse. But seeing Zhao Ruxi's sincere eyes, he swallowed his refusal.
The junior sister's doing this shows that in her heart, he, the third senior brother, is different and closer than the first senior brother and the second senior brother. There is no need for him to refuse and chill the little junior sister's heart.
He nodded and said: "Okay, then I will accept this kindness. But I will tell the master."
The junior sister has a conscience, so he naturally has to do a good job for the junior sister in front of the master.
The senior brother and sister discussed some details again, and then Wu Zong left.
Zhao Ruxi looked at the sky and Qing Feng: "Are you ready?"
"Okay, girl." Qing Feng said, "Everything has been put in the carriage."
"Okay, then let's go back to Beijing." Zhao Ruxi stood up.
When the group returned to the capital, Zhao Ruxi said to the old lady, Mr. Zhu and others: "I have brought some fresh food. Let's try it later."
"What's fresh to eat?" Zhao Jingtai asked quickly.
"You'll know in a moment." Zhao Ruxi was put off.
Everyone had to wait with curiosity.
The old lady's courtyard originally had a small kitchen. Now that there are few people in the big room, and they all eat together, and the weather is cold in winter, Zhu removed the people from the big kitchen and transferred the remaining people to the small kitchen to cook.
Everyone in the kitchen was waiting for Zhao Ruxi to come back to start dinner. As early as she entered the door, someone hurried back to the kitchen to report the news.
Therefore, not long after Zhao Ruxi sat down, the dishes came one after another.
When the food was ready, the cook also boiled and warmed the rice noodles as required and brought them out.
"Hey, it's pretty good-looking." Mrs. Zhu looked at the things in the bowl and said.
Snow-white rice noodles, red braised pork sauce, green onions, soybeans, peanuts, pickled beans and dried radish are all garnished, making it look very pretty.
The most important thing is that this stuff is fragrant and can arouse people's appetite.
"It has to be stirred evenly to make it delicious." Zhao Ruxi demonstrated.
Zhao Jingtai was very curious, but he also knew the rules. When the old lady moved the chopsticks, he couldn't wait to stir, quickly picked up a chopstick and put it into his mouth.
"It's delicious." He mumbled.
Although there is no rule in Suiping's residence not to talk when eating, talking with food in the mouth is not allowed.
Mrs. Zhu glared at her son, and then asked Zhao Ruxi, "Is this the food you bought from outside?"
It is a rule of wealthy families not to eat food cooked outside.
Firstly, I think the people doing business use poor ingredients and make poor food; secondly, I am afraid that it will not be clean; and secondly, I am worried that someone will put drugs in the food.
Zhao Ruxi also knows this. So even if there is something fresh to eat outside, she usually just asks the cook to try making it instead of just buying it for her family to eat.
"I asked the chef to research this. I bought six more small shops in the capital and planned to sell this kind of food." Zhao Ruxi said.
Everyone was surprised.
Zhu asked: "Why do you want to do this?"
Zhao Ruxi then explained why he did this and how he planned to open the rice noodle shop.
She said to Mrs. Zhu, "Mom, it's a pity that the food from our farm is sold like this. Why don't you ask them to make dried rice noodles and open a shop."
As she said this, she took out two prescriptions she had already written and handed them to the old lady and Mr. Zhu respectively. Then she smiled at the old lady and said, "Grandma, Zhuangzi can do the same for your dowry."
Mrs. Zhu and her mother-in-law looked at each other and put away the prescription: "It's hard to show your filial piety."
The dowry farms of Suiping Bofu and his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are now in the surrounding counties. Opening a rice noodle shop there does not conflict with Zhao Ruxi's shop in the capital.
"However, the population in the county is small, and the rice noodle shop consumes not much dry rice noodles every day. Your farm produces several times as much food as mine. There will definitely be too much dry rice noodle to use up by then."
"You can just use dry rice noodles as noodles and sell them in rice shops. It tastes good and is convenient. It's just like noodles. You can boil it in soup and eat it. It's very convenient. I think it's very popular.
Welcome. We will unify the price when the time comes. Unless someone learns to do it, there will be no competitors."
