Chapter 225 Waterways
Such a long waterway!
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed across Yan Yu.
"Dad! Then why haven't we seen a boat hit us?"
"It is said that our section of the river is too narrow for large boats to pass. It is said that small boats can pass in previous years, but this year it is dry and the water is shallow, so they will not leave." Yan Laoer replied.
"Does that mean we can develop into waterways in the future?" Yan Yu's thinking began to diverge again.
Li Xuemei glanced at her, and said calmly: "What is the development? Opening up the transportation route itself is for trade. How much business does our family need to transport on a large scale? Charcoal? Fragrant soap?"
Yan Yu felt that her mother's tone of voice was very problematic, and she seemed to look down on her family's current two major industries.
"Mother, as long as there is some money to make, what's wrong with your luck, not to mention charcoal, it may not be impossible to ship a large number of fragrant pancakes."
Li Xuemei analyzed objectively: "Fragrant soap is not necessary, there are too many things that can replace it for cleaning, and the price is about one tael of silver, not many people can accept this price.
You sold a batch in Yongning City, I think the market needs to digest it for a while.
If you want to sell a lot, you have to lower its price.
For us, as long as there is enough supply of raw materials, small profits but quick turnover are still very profitable, but doing so would be too conspicuous.
It’s not that there are no similar products on the market. There are always some reasons why people don’t sell them cheaply. I’ve wanted to tell you this for a long time. It’s best to control the shipment of incense sticks and sell them every month. The quantity should not exceed... fifty dollars. "
Li Xuemei gave a number.
Fifty?
Both father and daughter looked at her at the same time, staring at the same style.
"Mother, fifty yuan, if it is sold in the store like we did before, it may be less than forty taels, isn't it too little?!" Yan Yu was the first to protest.
Yan Laoer followed closely behind: "That's right, it's only one or two per day on average..."
Li Xuemei said quietly: "Forty taels a month, only one or two taels a day, which is already quite a lot. Look at the people in our village, they are very happy to earn a few dozen coins. Cui Langzhong's family is even more so. Busy until late at night, our daughter said that the couple's busy work points for a few days can be exchanged for two or three hundred cash. Your sister was so happy that she couldn't see the way, and she almost stumbled when she left our yard.
Now you father and daughter tell me, too little? "
Yan's second child: Is my sister so overwhelmed...
Yan Yu: No! I feel like my little money is about to go away from me...
"Mother, uncle is now the household registration of Huju City, so we don't have to be so careful?" She could understand her mother's concerns, but she still wanted to fight for it.
"Temporary... petty official... not admitted..." Li Xuemei said softly.
Poof! puff! puff!
Every time I talk about Yan Yu, it's like a knife is stuck in her body...
This is... fact!
"But mother, we need money to stock up on food!" Yan Yu was dying.
Li Xuemei looked at Yan Laoer: "I still have fifty taels, and we have two ginseng.
With our family’s current wealth and current food prices, we can buy a lot.
Also, you can’t stock too much, you have to consider storage issues, if you don’t store well, the more you buy, the more you waste. "
Yan Yu: Surrender with both hands and feet.
She did ignore the matter of storage, it was not as comprehensive as her mother thought.
A mother is a mother, and she will always be the leader of the family!
Yan Lao Er slapped his thigh, "I almost forgot, we still have to dig a cellar."
Cellar!
"Everything is repaired." Yan Laoer nodded and said, "It's quite hot here in summer, even if we don't eat, we can use it as a refrigerator, so we don't have to worry about not being able to keep the food in the future."
Yan's second son started to talk about it with Master Lu, and Yan Yu also went to listen to it.
Li Xuemei saw more of their father and daughter's tricks, so she waved them away.
The two fathers walked out as if they had been pardoned.
tacitly walked to a place where people carried people.
Yan Er Er sighed and squatted down, Yan Yu followed suit.
"Your mother has made up her mind, she can only think of a way based on the unit price and sell more money." Yan Laoer said with a sad face.
"Father, have you thought of anything?" Yan Yu asked.
Yan Er Er: "What else can I do? Open a store by yourself and do terminal sales directly. You have to open it in Fucheng, where there are so many people and business is easy.
is the rent, which is probably not cheap.
And I remember what your uncle said at the beginning, add this and that to this fragrant soap to improve the quality... It can also increase the price and take the boutique route. "
Yan Yu looked at her father adoringly: "Father, I knew I couldn't trouble you."
"Tell me about the stockpiling of food." Second Yan said.
Yan Yu hurriedly told her father her speculation and what her uncle said.
Yan's second child squeezed his chin: "So your uncle is also in favor of buying grain, if you go farther, where else can you go, Long Xing and Feng Ming.
It just so happens that your father has just been there, and the road is fairly familiar. It is easier to travel from Longxing to Fengming, and you can take land or water.
It would be great if the big ship could come to our side. We use a car to pull it, and the capacity is limited. There is a lot of food and lodging along the way.
It's better to go by water.
There are no officials on this river, and fish can be caught from the river at any time.
Tsk tsk, how much money has to be saved, if you can go all the way down the river from Fengming, it is probably much faster than driving. "
Yan Yu's little head nodded repeatedly: "I also think this waterway has great potential. If we go upstream, we can go to Longxing and Fengming. If we go downstream, we can pass Gufeng to Changping, or even go directly to the sea. Changping It's separated from Linhai Mansion by a river, if the boat is strong enough and goes all the way south along the coast, then the map will be enlarged..."
"Don't think so far, focus on what's in front of you."
Yan's second child was rarely serious: "The boatman over there in Longxing is very airy."
He told Yan Yu about finding a boat to cross the river outside Longxing City.
"Then go downriver and look for it, Dad. In fact, it's better to be our own boat, so you don't have to be restrained by others."
"Not to mention that buying a boat seems expensive, who knows how to row it!"
Yan Yu: "Dad, you forgot. Sister Yu said that her people would dare to float around the world as a raft. Why can't we do it? Since the water level is low this year and the boat is not easy to go, let's make a raft and try it." , At most, it will fall into the water, and it will be enough to swim to the shore, the water in the river is so shallow..."
"When you think about it, it's up to you, whether you can swim or I can swim." Yan Er Er glared at her.
Yan Yu laughed and said: "Father, you know it, don't you know how to plan with a dog, don't worry about looking at it, as long as you can swim."
As for her, she is a complete landlubber.
"Besides, our family has advantages that others do not have, so we are not afraid of trial and error." She said mysteriously.
"What advantage? Why don't I know?" Yan Lao Er was puzzled.
Second watch~
I don’t want to write about the richness of the world, and I don’t want to write about unlimited sales of sweet pancakes. Just like what Li Xuemei said, if you want to sell more, you have to sell them cheaply. If you write like this, you can see the result at a glance~
They themselves are too busy to hire people, expand the scale, and accumulate wealth quickly~
I prefer to write more about them doing things by themselves, and I don’t want them to be too tired, so it’s good to take the boutique route, adapting bit by bit and trying to improve their lives. This is the story that the house wants to write~
