Chapter 193 This is a good idea
After Qin Zhiyi finished speaking, both Zhang Qiaoniang and Qin Erniu were a little stunned.
They both looked at Qin Zhiyi, and they seemed to understand what their sister meant.
It is nothing more than not wanting to lend them money to open a bigger shop, but to let them hold on to the money on hand, rent a shop at will, and carry a load to sell.
Zhang Qiaoniang's face was a little confused. She smiled awkwardly and asked tentatively: "Little sister, do you mean to let your second brother carry the burden to sell tofu?"
Qin Zhiyi knew that her second sister-in-law would definitely feel resentful if she said this.
But she didn't want her second brother and sister-in-law to invest so much money when they just started their business.
She originally opened the restaurant solely because she had the recipes, plus her good cooking skills, and because Li Mancang's restaurant was intended to be sold out, so she had the right time, place, and people.
My lovely brother and second sister-in-law are originally honest farmers. They have been living in Qinjiazhuang for so many years. They don’t understand the situation here, and they don’t know anything about doing business.
What they lacked was opportunity and training, but he couldn't let them buy a big shop with their money and make ends meet.
So he said patiently: "Yes, the second brother and the second sister-in-law have never done business before. It is not cost-effective to open a larger shop rashly without being sure at first. It is better to rent a small one first and try it out."
Make it. When it's done, you can guard the shop while the second brother goes out to sell it. They'll like it after they've eaten well. Furthermore,
Now that the tofu shop is open, you will definitely supply me mainly. Once you save some money, you can expand the shop. It will be easier for you to recruit two clerks."
Zhang Qiaoniang was still a little unhappy when she heard this.
She originally thought that Qin Zhiyi promised them that he wanted them to open a big shop in Yunyang County. She even told her family that she and Qin Erniu were going to open a big shop and become famous.
Now it's good, it's just a small house and a small workshop.
Zhang Qiaoniang's complexion changed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Qin Zhiyi is not afraid of offending his second brother and sister-in-law. They will understand the reason after experiencing it.
So she added: "I've also shown you the place. It's at the intersection of two streets in Yunyang County. The shop is not big, but fortunately there is a backyard inside, which is enough to store magic stones and other things.
I'll lend you another eight taels of silver to make up a round number. Can the second brother and the second sister-in-law go over and look at the shop now?"
Zhang Qiaoniang was extremely reluctant, but Qin Zhiyihua had already received this, so she couldn't say anything else.
Now I just resent myself for being too poor, otherwise I wouldn't have opened my mouth to Qin Zhiyi.
Qin Erniu was more open-minded. No matter how much he borrowed from his sister, he would eventually have to pay it back.
And when his sister said it just now, he also thought carefully about it. The bigger the store, the higher the cost. It is true that they have never done business.
When it comes to making tofu, just because grandpa and grandma are good at it doesn't mean they are good at it. Ordering tofu still requires skill.
Start by building a small shop and grow it from a young age. After saving money, you can expand the shop. There will be no pressure of debt and the motivation to make money. He has already predicted that even a small shop business can become more and more popular.
The scene.
So he said with a smile: "It depends on my sister. If my sister is free now, we will go to the shop now."
"Well, I have some free time. Let's go and see the shop, then walk around the streets. We'll walk around all the streets and alleys to get acquainted with the way. When we come back, we'll clean up the shop. It's almost time to have dinner.
Now, just come and eat with me at the Chengyi Restaurant."
After she finished speaking, she waved to Asi and whispered a few words in his ear.
Ah Xi nodded immediately.
Qin Erniu said: "That's it, let's go and take a look now."
Qin Zhiyi nodded and walked out of the restaurant first.
Qin Erniu followed behind, took a step forward and saw that his wife was not moving, so he stretched out his hand and tugged on her sleeve.
Zhang Qiaoniang bit her lip, and although she was reluctant, she followed.
In fact, the shop was a little bigger than they imagined. They didn't have the money to buy the shop directly, so they had to rent it.
When asked about the price, the couple immediately woke up with fright, because just renting such a large shop would cost twenty taels of silver a month.
Qin Erniu and Zhang Qiaoniang looked at each other and asked the shopkeeper: "Just renting this shop will cost you twenty taels of silver. What if you buy it?"
The shopkeeper stretched out two fingers again: "At least two hundred taels."
"Two hundred taels?"
Zhang Qiaoniang thought she heard wrongly, "Your shop is so small, and it costs two hundred taels to buy it. Why don't you go and grab it?"
Seeing the unhappy look on the shopkeeper's face, Qin Zhiyi hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Second sister-in-law, you are wrong. In fact, the shopkeeper's shop is not cheap even if it sells for two hundred taels. Although this shop is small, it has five internal organs.
Everything. When the shopkeeper said two hundred taels, he meant the backyard and the three wing rooms in the backyard, right?"
The shopkeeper nodded and said: "Yes, including the three rooms in my backyard, the yard is not too small. If I open a restaurant, I can entertain guests upstairs. Moreover, my location is good, and people from all over the world are here.
I have to pass by here, and two hundred taels is already considered cheap."
Zhang Qiaoniang was speechless when she heard this, and Qin Erniu looked at the shop again.
Qin Zhiyi smiled and said, "Second sister-in-law, do you think you like this shop? If you do, we'll buy it. I've already agreed with the shopkeeper that we'll get two taels of silver a month, one deposit and one payment."
Zhang Qiao's mother's eyes looked at Qin Erniu, and Qin Erniu looked at his sister again, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, I will listen to my sister. If my sister says it is right, I will win."
He believed in his sister's vision, and since they had chosen this place, it would definitely work.
But when paying the money, Qin Erniu was still a little reluctant.
This was the first time he had taken so much silver, twenty taels.
But when I thought about it, when they opened the shop, they would be able to make money back in a short time, and I felt relieved.
After paying the rent and deposit, both parties wrote receipts and took fingerprints. After completing the formalities, Qin Zhiyi asked Qin Erniu to collect the rental receipts, and then set off with his second brother and sister-in-law.
She first took her brother and sister-in-law to see the layout of Yunyang County and took them through the streets and alleys.
It actually didn't take long to walk around. When she returned to the shop, she said to Qin Erniu: "I'm afraid my brother and sister-in-law will have a hard time in the future. There are several villages outside the county. If the second brother is too busy then,
Come here and sell the tofu in the village. The village is not as good as the city. My brother can sell it in the city first."
"I carry the rest to the village. One pound of soybeans can be used to grind two to three pounds of old tofu. When I get there, I ask for tofu exchange. If there are soybeans, I exchange one pound of soybeans for one pound of tofu. If there are no soybeans, I pay."
When Qin Erniu heard this, he immediately said: "This is a good idea!"
