Chapter 99

Chapter 99 Making money at home

"Huh? The Su Mansion Garden is actually open!"

"Ah, really? Let's go in and have a look!"

"I haven't been in there yet! Let's go in and have a look."

The three teenagers were wandering on the street and suddenly discovered that the Su family had opened a garden, which had never happened before!

"Ahem, gentlemen, wait a moment." Zhao Ling'er sat at the entrance of the garden to bask in the sun early in the morning.

The young man glanced at her and said, "What do you mean?"

Zhao Ling'er stretched out her right hand, moved her fingers, and said, "Each person pays 20 yuan for tea and soup."

"Ah?" The young man was a little surprised, but it was worth spending 20 coins to buy a chance to explore the secrets of Su Mansion.

Go into the garden.

"Hey, this garden is so big!"

"Well, I think it needs at least 2 acres of land."

"Two acres? It's more than that. I think it has to be 3 to 4 acres anyway."

"Would you like some hot tea? The freshly brewed barley tea is free." Ah Zhen stood in front of a large water tank and said to them with a smile.

"Hey, that's good. There's also hot tea to drink. Have a bowl!"

"I also want."

"I also want."

The three teenagers were drinking tea and looking around.

"Huh? What's that sound over there?"

"It looks like someone is fighting cocks."

"Cockfighting? Let's go and have a look."

Before the tea was finished, the three of them put down their bowls and walked over there.

When the cockfighting man saw them coming, he shouted loudly: "Watch the cockfighting. Guess which chicken will win, and your bet will be doubled!"

"Double your bet?"

One of them heard it and ran even more energetically.

"Zhu Mang, which chicken do you think will win?" the man asked another fat boy.

Zhu Mang supported the other with one arm, looked at the two chickens carefully, and said, "Let me see that one." He pointed at a black-feathered chicken that had almost lost all of its feathers near the comb.

"Otherwise." Another boy shook his head and said, "I think this chicken will win."

"Come on, this chicken is so skinny and small, how can it possibly win?"

"Who said it? A chicken can't be judged by its appearance. Maybe it's a fighter!"

"Gentlemen, you can place your bets after you have seen it. One bet is 10 cents. If you win, you will get 20 cents. If you lose, the money will be mine." The person in charge of the cockfight said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll bet on the black chicken, 10 cents!"

"I also bet on black chicken, 10 Wen!"

"I'll bet on the yellow-haired chicken," said the fat young man.

The cockfighter took the money and said, "Everyone, watch, the cockfight will begin!"

As soon as the two chickens were placed on the ground, the black-feathered chicken immediately launched an attack, spread its wings and jumped up to pick up the yellow-feathered chicken's beak. The yellow-feathered chicken quickly retreated. The two chickens' beaks were facing each other, only 5 centimeters apart, staring at each other eagerly.

Staring at each other. Suddenly, the yellow-feathered chicken jumped up and tried to bite the black-feathered chicken. The black-feathered chicken got up at the same time and resisted the yellow-feathered chicken's mouth with its own mouth. The two chickens were in a stalemate for two seconds, and the black-feathered chicken continued

The yellow-feathered chicken launched an attack, not to be outdone, and jumped up continuously to block its sharp beak. Suddenly, the yellow-feathered chicken put its head down and burrowed under the wings of the black-feathered chicken. The black-feathered chicken immediately lowered its head and licked the yellow-feathered chicken in pain.

The yellow-feathered chicken had to take a few steps back.



After more than twenty rounds of fighting, the yellow-feathered chicken finally lost to the black-feathered chicken. It was attacked by the black-feathered chicken more than ten times in a row and could not resist.

When the three of them saw that the winner was decided, the cockfighter separated the two chickens and gave 20 cents to each person who guessed that the black-feathered chicken would win.

People who win money are elated.

"Look, there's a trap ahead!"

I saw all kinds of gadgets placed in an open space. There were rag dolls, little rabbits in cages, parrots, small slingshots, small wooden cars, small wooden horses, tumblers, Luban locks, Go, etc.

.

"Gentlemen, would you like to set a trap? There are ten rings for ten cents, and whoever wins the trap will be taken away directly." A man smiled and handed the circle to the young man.

The one named Zhu Mang said: "Come 10!"

The other two teenagers also asked for a trap, and the three of them set it up together.

There are more and more people in the garden.

Several people stood near them watching them set the trap.

Zhu Mang tried the trap 10 times in a row but failed to hit any one. He shouted dissatisfied: "Ten more!"

"Hey, I've got a trap!" One of the teenagers shouted in surprise. He got a pony carriage.

Zhu Mang became even more anxious.

I have set all 10 hoops in my hand, but I still haven’t hit any of them.

"Give me another 100!" Zhu Mang shouted.

His family makes coffins, and his father has a good craftsmanship, so he is not short of money.

The three of them were walking around in the garden, eating and drinking, and before they knew it, it was getting dark.

"Young Masters, we are going to close the garden." At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the servants of the Su Mansion began to drive people out.

"So fast? I haven't had enough fun yet!" Zhu Mang said.

"Yes, it was my first time to set that trap! But it was a pity that I didn't catch a little rabbit!"

"What are you afraid of? We'll come back tomorrow!"

"That's right, I'll bring more money tomorrow and we'll come again!" Zhu Mang said.

Zhao Ling'er felt very happy when she saw the three people reluctant to leave.

Back in her yard, she counted the "tea money" she received today, and found that there were 3,080 yuan! But it was only more than 3 taels of silver!

But there are other incomes!

At seven o'clock in the evening, the servants brought in today's income one after another.

"Journey to the West" sold 46 copies, with a commission of 10 copies per copy, totaling 460 copies.

28 copies of other literati books were sold, with a commission of 8 cents per volume, for a total of 224 cents.

A total of 1,840 yuan of snacks such as steamed buns, steamed buns, and flower rolls were sold.

Li Heng also came to join in the fun today and picked up his Suqiong Ye. I wonder how much he sold today.

The income from the trap was 3280 Wen, the expenditure was 865 Wen, and the net income was 2415 Wen.

The income from throwing darts is 1640 Wen, the prize expenditure is 320 Wen, and the net income is 1320 Wen.

The income from pot throwing is 1080 Wen, the expenditure is 154 Wen, and the net income is 926 Wen.

The income from the cockfighting game was 2810 Wen, the expenditure was 1430 Wen, and the net income was 1380 Wen.

There is also a Cuju competition, which has no profit and only costs 880 Wen for prizes.

Today I received a total of 10,765 Wen, a total of only 10 Liang, 765 Wen!

Zhao Ling'er couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. After looking at the gate for a whole day, she only earned more than 10 taels of silver.

But in the past, earning 10 taels a day was a lot of money, but for her now, there is no surprise.

No, we must find a way to increase our income!

Zhao Ling'er thought.

The garden is so big, it is not good for too many people to enter at one time, as it will affect the viewing effect and may cause accidents.

Raising the unit price per customer? That was not her original intention. It was originally open to everyone to play, and it cannot be a patent for a few people.

It would be great if it could form a lasting business.

Booking?

Booking hotpot?

Zhao Ling'er shook her head, this can be held in a hot pot restaurant.

membership card?

living room?

No, Zhao Linger shook her head.

Still selling clothes?

There really is a beauty from the Western Regions this time, but if my father-in-law sees it, he will inevitably be sad, and that’s not okay.

What else can you do?

Isn’t it a waste of money to have such a good garden but not make any money?

Zhao Linger frowned and thought hard.

Hey, I have it!

Zhao Ling'er suddenly burst into laughter. If you do this, it will definitely be no problem to earn 5,000 taels a month!
