Qin Yao originally only wanted to hold a brief meeting to set the production task for the second batch of lady boxes.

Unexpectedly, after everyone's enthusiastic discussion, there was an unexpected harvest. The more we chatted, the more excited we became. We didn't eat any lunch. It wasn't until the afternoon that everyone was thirsty and exhausted, and then they dispersed with unfulfilled interest.

Now Qin Yao has decided to deliver the second batch of 100 mother-of-pearl lady boxes, and then produce 50 spring version lady boxes and 50 variegated lady boxes at the same time as a hook for the new year.

And in the new batch of ladies' boxes, a small storybook with pictures of the product will be added to deepen the impression of the ladies' boxes on the ladies of Kyoto.

If nothing unexpected happens, with these two operations, the high-end products of the Lady Box series will be able to gain a firm foothold in the capital.

However, Qin Yao is still more concerned about the first batch of payment than this.

It was difficult to transport cash in cash. After Qiu Yan deducted his portion of the income, the remaining nine thousand taels of silver were all in the form of banknotes. He specially sent his trusted aide to deliver them to Qin Yao in person.

The person who came was also an old acquaintance of Qin Yao.

"I didn't expect that my boss would send the second shopkeeper here." Qin Yao said with surprise as she invited Jiang Wen to come in and take a seat.

Jiang Wen smiled enviously: "This is a nine thousand tael of silver notes, and my boss wouldn't be relieved if I gave it to someone else."

"Speaking of which, our two families have been cooperating for some time. I haven't come here to take a look before. This is the perfect opportunity. I'm quite curious about how this lady's box was made."

The two sat down in the main room, and Mrs. Li brought tea and freshly made chicken cakes. They looked ordinary, but the sweet smell made Jiang Wen's eyes light up.

"This is?" He pointed to the plate of golden and fluffy chicken cake.

Qin Yao explained: "Cake, a random snack, tastes pretty good, you can try it."

"Then I won't be polite."

Jiang Wen said you're welcome, but he was really rude. He couldn't grasp it with his hands, so he directly held the plate, picked up Li's special silver spoon, scooped out a piece and put it in his mouth to taste.

The first feeling when entering the mouth is that it is fragrant and soft. It is not as soft as pasta, but a kind of cotton that melts in the mouth like a cloud. Jiang Wen has never tried such a taste before and was pleasantly surprised.

If you savor the taste carefully, you will find that it tastes pretty good, it is simply a heavenly product!

After eating half the plate in a row, Jiang Wen stopped because he was choking. He took a few sips of tea and finally managed to avoid choking, which made Qin Yao laugh.

"Are you okay?" Qin Yao asked with a smile, looking innocent like I didn't see how embarrassing you are.

Jiang Wen nodded restrainedly, took another spoonful and swallowed it before saying, "Not bad."

After the food was eaten and the banknote was delivered, it was time to get down to business.

Seeing that Jiang Wen was in good spirits, Qin Yao took him to visit the stationery factory and then walked around the village. Along the way, she told him that she wanted to open a ladies box store in the capital.

"Specialty, counter, store?" Because he had never heard such a word before, Jiang Wen came up word by word, for fear of saying something wrong.

This Liujia Village seemed remote, but there were many new words that he had never heard before.

For example, things like chief design, research team, canteen, working meals, etc. He just thought it was the dialect of this village.

Unexpectedly, the workers in the factory said that they learned these things from their manager Qin.

It seems that Manager Qin likes to say new words that others don't understand, and I don't know where she learned them.

Qin Yao smiled lightly and said: "Yes, a counter store is a store that specializes in selling ladies' boxes. From reception to after-sales, it only provides high-end services to buyers of ladies' boxes."

"Of course, we will pay for the money to open the shop, but after all, we are not familiar with the place and are not as well-established as your trading company, so we need a lot of help from the trading company to open this shop."

Jiang Wen was stunned for a moment. Seeing that Qin Yao looked like she had already planned this, he had to remind her.

"Manager Qin, no one opens a shop that only sells one thing, do you know that?"

Qin Yao nodded, "I know, so didn't we make two new products? You, the second shopkeeper, just saw them and were very satisfied with them, right?"

Jiang Wen was stunned. If the color is different, it is called something new?

He thought it was outrageous, but then he thought about it. Cooperating with her was already a very outrageous thing, so it seemed okay to continue to be outrageous.

"It's not easy to open a shop in the capital. Have you really thought about it?" Jiang Wen reminded seriously.

Qin Yao nodded firmly.

Jiang Wen stared at her suspiciously for a long time, "If the store opens, it won't be the ladies' box from Fulong Trading Company. Now the ladies in the capital only recognize the ladies' boxes brought by our Fulong Trading Company, and the other ones are all I don’t recognize it.”

Qin Yao smiled easily, "So I said that our stationery factory would open the store, but the management should be left to your firm. We have no experience in serving customers, and we don't dare to run it ourselves."

"Free gift?" Jiang Wen became more and more suspicious of her. Pies in the sky never fall.

Qin Yao shrugged, "Then if I propose the idea of ​​opening a specialty store, will your trading company accept it?"

"The annual rent for a prosperous shop in the capital is 3,000 taels. Not counting decoration and other management expenses, all of which add up. It takes at least 5,000 taels of silver every year to maintain the shop." Jiang Wen was afraid that she didn't know. The accounts were all calculated directly for her.

Of course, it's a bit of an exaggeration, but it's not too far off.

Qin Yao's smile deepened and she winked at him. Don't forget, she is now carrying nine thousand taels of silver notes.

Moreover, the money they make now is not only for themselves, but also for the eldest princess behind them.

Jiang Wen's heart sank, "I will tell my boss when I get back."

Qin Yao was satisfied and asked him pleasantly: "When does the shopkeeper plan to go back?"

"Tomorrow morning." He didn't dare to stay in Liu Village any longer.

Qin Yao yelled, sent him to the entrance of the village, and suddenly said: "Then I will ask Liu Fei to go with you tomorrow. This country boy has never been out of the county. Please give me some advice when you get to the capital."

Jiang Wen's eyes widened, his boss hadn't agreed yet! Don't force yourself into someone like that!

Qin Yao didn't look at him, but gave the horse a whip for him, and shouted "drive" at the same time. The horse was in pain and ran away, taking an angry Jiang Wen into Kaiyang County.

There was no room available at home, and Jiang Wen was too embarrassed to squeeze in, so he directly arranged for him to stay for one night at Shopkeeper Fan's restaurant, where he would be served good wine and good food, and her account would be charged.

After seeing Jiang Wenyuan go, Qin Yao immediately rushed home and picked up the abacus to settle the accounts.

Nine thousand taels of silver notes are not as exciting as several large boxes of silver. They are light and there is no excitement at all.

After deducting the costs, workers' bonuses and dividends to the villagers, there is still 7,500 taels left.

Among them, 30% is 2,250 taels of silver. No matter whether the eldest princess wants this endorsement fee or not, Qin Yao is ready to hand it over on her own initiative.

The remaining 5,250 taels of silver are Qin Yao's personal income.

It may be that all her needs are basically met at the moment, and these more than 5,000 taels of silver cannot cause any waves in her heart.

But for Liu Fei, who was carrying a huge sum of 7,000 taels in silver and was about to follow Jiang Wen into the city, go to Kyoto, and even go to the princess's house to 'make an offering', the trust given by his third sister-in-law was an unbearable weight in his life!

But that was the capital, and the high-spirited young people couldn't help but be fascinated.

Therefore, under the watch of the whole family, Liu Fei embarked on the road to Beijing with a huge sum of money, shouldering the task of opening a store assigned by his third sister-in-law, and the hope of self-exploration. (End of chapter)
