Chapter 75 Wholesalers
"You, you, this... put it away quickly, put it away quickly." He urged repeatedly.
Even though Ms. Xie looked at the banknotes given by Old Man Xu and Mrs. Xiao, the banknotes were piled on the table. Thinking that they were one thousand taels, Ms. Xie's heart was beating like a drum, and she was in a panic.
"Put it away quickly. If someone sees it, you will be in trouble." She glared at Xu Xi, "Don't let anyone see it in the future. Hide it well. Don't let anyone know about it in the Hou Mansion."
Xu Xi saw that the couple was shocked and panicked, but there was no greed in her eyes; Xu Xue only had envy and admiration on her face. She was in a very good mood.
She picked up eight of them, folded them and put them in her arms, and handed the remaining two to Xu Yongyi: "Uncle, these are my filial piety to you and aunt. Take it. Let your hands and feet go to business, don't be afraid. Our cold salad
The food is so delicious, business must be booming."
Xu Yongyi took two steps back as if the two banknotes were hot to his hands, and then said sternly to Xu Xi: "Sister Xi, I can't ask for your money anymore. You have already given us such a good idea.
, If I can't start my business, then it will be a waste. If I still take your money like this, I will have a bad conscience."
Xu Xi felt warm in her heart.
She said: "Uncle, it turns out that we have no capital, so I planned to start the cold dish business slowly and steadily. But now that I have money, I can no longer do this business. After the cold dish appears, people will soon follow suit. Even if
The taste is not as good as ours, but as long as they sell it cheaply and are outside our scope of influence, they will definitely sell well. This will make it difficult for us to expand in the future."
Xu Yongyi nodded.
He also thought about this. But after thinking about it, there was nothing he could do. He was really lacking in ability. He could only eat one bite at a time, and he couldn't eat it until he became fat.
Xu Xi continued: "I'm thinking, why don't we become wholesalers directly, wholesale to the small merchants and hawkers in the city, divide the territory for them, and let them have a unified price. Uncle and aunt just mix the vegetables at home. Don't worry about the vegetables.
You wash and cut it yourself, hire someone to do it, and you just mix the seasonings. Only in this way can we maximize our profits. We are not tired and can make a lot of money."
She took a step forward and handed the banknote to Xu Yongyi: "This money is considered as a loan from me, or as an investment. When you make money, you can pay me back or give me dividends."
Xu Yongyi was excited by the blueprint drawn by Xu Xi.
He is a man, and he also has the ambition to make a lot of money and do a big business. Xu Xi painted such a wonderful picture for him, and he would not be willing to go back and start from a stall.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, uncle will take the money."
He thought for a while: "Originally, you only provided the recipe and got 20% of the profit. Now that you have paid the capital, the share cannot be calculated like this. You have to get 50% of the profit. Otherwise, I can't take the money.
"
All the capital was paid by Xu Xi. If they lost money, they would not have the money to pay it back to Xu Xi in the short term. If they wanted to pay it back, they would not know how long the year has passed. In this way, all the risks of this business would be borne by Xu Xi, but
It's not fair that she doesn't get a share of the money she earns.
But it is different if the money is regarded as Xu Xi's investment. The risks are still borne and the profits are shared together. This is only fair to Xu Xi.
Of course, Xu Yongyi did this because he felt that this business could not lose money. Anyway, he would control the costs from the beginning and would never directly spend all of Xu Xi's two hundred taels of silver. He could reduce the variety first and wait for the reputation to increase.
Now, if you add more varieties, you can not only control costs, but also use new varieties to overwhelm others when they follow suit.
But the recipe was given by Xu Xi, and the business model just mentioned was proposed by Xu Xi. It was only with the courage of these two hundred taels that he dared to open the stall so big. The capital for the big business was also provided by Xu Xi.
Therefore, he thought it was reasonable to give Xu Xi a 50% bonus.
Xu Xi did not refuse, nodded and said: "Okay, I will do it according to your ideas."
Xu Yongyi asked again: "Can you come over and see me every day?"
He now found that Xu Xi had a better business acumen than him and was more thoughtful. Compared with Xu Xi, he, who had been doing small business for more than ten years, was far behind. With his stall suddenly being so big, he
He felt a little unsure. If Xu Xi could come out every day to see and come up with ideas, he would feel much more at ease.
Xu Xi thought for a while: "I'm afraid not. The time for going to and from school is fixed, and the Marquis Mansion will pick you up directly by horse-drawn carriage. The academy also stipulates that you are not allowed to go out without being picked up by family members, so we can't go out even if we are free in the middle."
She didn't want the Hou family to know about supporting the Xu family's business, lest they misunderstand that she gave the one hundred taels of silver to the Xu family. If she wanted to explain, she would have to bring up the story of her selling design drafts. Although she didn't care
Hou Mansion, but it is better to do less than to do more.
Mrs. Xie glared at Xu Yongyi: "It is a big deal for children to study, so don't hold back."
Xu Yongyi nodded quickly: "I didn't think well. You should concentrate on your studies and don't worry about your family. I will take care of your family's business."
"Actually, if anything happens, just ask Xiaoxue to tell me. If necessary, I will come over and have a look. If it is inconvenient, I will communicate with you through Xiaoxue." Xu Xi smiled.
Ms. Xie was also very happy to hear Xu Xi say that she could come and visit from time to time.
After the conversation was over, she asked: "Are you hungry? I made rice milk this morning. Xiaoxi, you like to eat taro cake, I'll steam it for you."
At this time, it was still early for Li Qingfeng and the others to come to pick her up. Xu Xi was not in a hurry to go back to the academy gate to wait, and said to Ms.
.”
"How much can your kitten eat?" Xie said angrily, waving her hands and getting up, "Okay, you guys go and have a rest."
Before going out, she turned back and said: "Xiao Xi, your aunt has cleaned up your old room and left it for you. You can come back when you have time. Even if you don't stay, you can take a rest. Xiaoxue's room is in yours
next door."
This house was rented out after the death of Xu Yongzeng and his wife. Naturally, the original owner’s room was not preserved, and all the things were moved back to Xiaorong Village. Now that she planned to own the house, Mrs. Xie moved Xu Xi’s things to Xiaorong Village.
Restore her original room to its previous appearance.
Ms. Xie also knew that the Hou Mansion would not let Xu Xi live in the Xu family. After all, Xu Yongyi and Xu Chongwen are now considered foreign men to Xu Xi, and they have no blood relationship with each other. If Xu Xi lives in the Xu family again, if someone spreads the word
, ruined Xu Xi’s reputation.
