The cannon fodder of fast wear, she chooses to farm

Chapter 510

With such a capable and diligent person like Xu Kui helping her do things, Xu Yin really felt a lot easier.

If it wasn't for the fact that there is a stipulation on the number of monthly increases in the mansion, she would have given him 100 taels directly, and one person can be used as three people, so why not give him three times the salary?
Later, Xu Yin thought about it, and it didn't matter if he could only raise twice the monthly money at most at a time, and the rest would be his shareholding.

She plans to make Xu's Fragrance Industry into a group company. Apart from her, Xu Kui is the first senior executive to buy shares.

I took the time to sort out the projects Xu currently operates, and found that in addition to the Qizhen Pavilion in the capital and the ordinary spice business, in just two years, the group's business has expanded to three more, namely fragrance, wine, and greenhouse vegetables.

...emmm, the last item feels a bit messy.

It has nothing to do with the system tasks she wants to complete.

But I have to deny: In the winter when root vegetables such as Chinese cabbage, potatoes, and radishes are mainly stored in the cellar, what a blessing it is to have fresh and tender green vegetables to eat!
Although at present, with the planting volume of No. 1 and No. 2 greenhouse bases, plus the Lin Mansion, it is estimated that it can barely supply the rich and powerful in Los Angeles.

But as greenhouse technology becomes more and more skilled, businessmen see business opportunities and invest more and more in greenhouses. Sooner or later, green vegetables will be served on the dinner table of ordinary people in winter.

As she expected, this winter, there were a few fresh greens on the dinner tables of the wealthy and powerful in Los Angeles.

If these dignitaries only put seven or eight dishes of fresh green vegetables on important festivals such as Laba, on ordinary days, they can usually eat two or three dishes of green fresh vegetables at noon, and it is only on the dining table of serious masters. It would be nice to have one for those concubines, concubines or concubines who are not favored.

It is really snow-covered winter, and the fresh vegetable market is too popular.

You can't buy goods with money.

Lin Fu, who planted together with Xu Yin, has been arrogant this winter: even breakfast can see green and refreshing long melons.

"I really admire the idea of ​​niece Xian!"

Since the beginning of winter, Mr. Lin has eaten the green vegetables provided by his own village, and praised Xu Yin every day.

I don't know whether Xu Yin sneezed or not, but Mrs. Lin's ears were almost callused.

She smiled and said: "It's still a master's word, even the magistrate praised her! If it weren't for the filial piety period, the magistrate's wife would have wanted to invite her to the wedding banquet on her birthday."

"The days go by so fast, will you be filial piety in three months?" Mr. Lin calculated the time and sighed, "Before I knew it, Xu Ningxiang and his wife had been gone for almost three years. The world really is impermanent!"

Mrs. Lin thought of another thing: "After filial piety, the Xu family may not be quiet anymore. Yinyin's age is just right to talk about marriage, and all the young men of the right age in Los Angeles probably want to marry her. "

Marrying her is equivalent to marrying the huge family property of the Xu family!
Not to mention the filial piety queen, even in the past two years, when she attended some tea parties and flower viewing parties, she could hear a few voices inquiring about Xu Fu and Xian's niece.

"Unfortunately, our son has a family, otherwise even I would be tempted." Mrs. Lin smiled self-deprecatingly.

"The situation of my niece..." Mr. Lin analyzed slowly, stroking his beard, "The most suitable thing is to recruit a husband-in-law."

"Same as her mother?" Mrs. Lin shook her head, "The idea of ​​being a concubine is different from that of the master. Those who are willing to marry are often from poor families, and they are forced to live in the bride's house. Who is willing to marry if the family is good? But how many people from poor families have great prospects? Don’t talk about others, just talk about Yinyin’s father. He is a good person, kind and responsible, neither greedy nor lazy, but what about others? After studying with the old man for many years, he still lacks Didn't Xu Ningxiang take care of the business? I think Yinyin should find a young and promising husband with a similar family background. After getting married, she can still take care of the family business and have more children in the future Let a child named Xu inherit the Xu family business, like my natal cousin, she is also an only child, she has three sons and a daughter, and the second son takes her surname."

"Ma'am, what you said is wrong." Master Lin shook his head, "If you marry into an in-law's family with a similar family background, and you have to deal with various affairs of the in-law's family after marriage, how can you still have time to take care of your natal family's business? As for children, it is even more uncertain. If, like the Xu family did before, there is only one generation and one inheritance, will the in-laws allow the only grandson to be surnamed Xu?"

Master Lin hit the nail on the head: "The old man dares to judge: Knowing the situation of the niece Xian, he is still eager to marry him but is unwilling to marry him. Obviously he is rushing to the family property behind the niece Xian. How could they agree that the grandson's surname is Xu? The surname is Xu, Cheng Without the Xu family, what does everything about the Xu family have to do with them?"

Mrs. Lin was touched by the master, and after being stunned, she quickly figured it out, and stood up anxiously: "Then I have to mention Yinyin a few words."

"Hey! Madame is too anxious again, she hasn't done her filial piety yet!"

"……"Too!
Xu Yin didn't know that someone was worrying about her life's event right now.

She was comfortably roasting the fire, eating cucumbers grown in her own greenhouse, and was looking through the account books sent by shopkeepers including Xu Kui.

As the end of the new year approaches, each shop begins to take inventory of this year's income, and after the inventory is completed, send it to Xu Yin for review.

This year, the Xu family's business has hit a new high. Whether it is traditional spices or newly launched fragrances, they are selling well.

The profitability of wineries and greenhouse vegetables is still hard to say.

The former has just been purchased, and mainly supplies vodka alcohol stock solution for flavoring, and occasionally brews some ordinary wine.

What's more, what's sold out this year is the old wine left in the winery.

How else can Xu Kui get lucky.It only cost 500 taels of silver, not only to buy a winery with complete brewing facilities, but also to pick up several large altars of aged wine for nothing.

After the makeover, he gave it an auspicious name of "Zhuangyuanhong", attracted scholars as long-term customers, and made a wave of advertisements for Xu's Distillery.

There is such an effect in the early stage, as long as it is stable in the later stage, the wine brewed by the old master and the old equipment will be as good as ever.

Let’s talk about vegetables in greenhouses. Regardless of the fact that the rich and powerful are scrambling to buy them, the initial investment is really not small.

The No. 1 base in Xujia Village used the original rafters and columns of the nunnery, and the scale is relatively small, and the cost of investment is mainly labor.

But the Zhuangzi in Nanlu Mountain was built from scratch, and the whole Zhuangzi was rebuilt into a greenhouse. How big is that?The foundation, the rafters, the roof... If you want to withstand the winter snow cover, you have to build it extremely strong.

Excluding this big expense, and then subtracting various labor and trivial costs, it is not possible to lose money, but the profit is really not much.

But a good start is half the battle. This year’s investment will not be a loss. Will waiting for dividends next year be worse?

After Xu Yin finished looking through the ledger, she distributed a red envelope to the storekeepers of each shop, got up and stretched, and walked out of the other courtyard to enjoy the sunset that was so close.

Everything is going in a good direction, really good!
