Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up

It is time for Kaoshan Village Inn to settle its accounts and distribute dividends at the end of the year.

Since the opening, there have been guests from other places staying in the inn every day. Cheng recorded every income and expenditure in the account book. When checking the accounts, Shen Ping was surprised to find that the inn had also made money.

Since its opening, after deducting various expenses, the inn's net profit has reached more than 50 taels of silver.

The total investor is Shen Ping, so of course the profits will be higher if they are shared equally, but this is public land and everyone has invested together.

Shen Ping's main purpose of opening this inn was to provide convenience to merchants who came to the workshop to purchase goods.

To her, the inn didn't make much money, so she thought that taking from the people and giving back to the people was the best thing, and that was when everyone was better off. So Shen Ping planned to divide the profits of the inn equally among everyone.

After all, if the villagers do not agree, the inn cannot be opened, and no convenience can be provided to these merchants. As the saying goes, if it's good for you, it's good for me, and it's good for everyone.

In this matter, we must benefit others in order to achieve our own success, and only when everyone is bound together by interests can we go further.

In other words, those who participated in investing in the inn will share the profits equally. When Shen Ping told the village chief the news, he was very happy.

I didn't expect that Dachunniang would complain that the money was too much, but then I thought, Dachunniang earns a lot of money, why would she care about these petty profits.

Thinking of this, the village chief suddenly felt that the silver was not so hot in his hands.

Today is New Year's Eve. The village chief gathered everyone together again. When they heard the gong, everyone ran out of the house in tacit understanding.

Because of experience, every time the gong sounds, it means there is something important to discuss. And now, it is basically good news.

Everyone ran towards the ancestral hall together. Along the way, they met other people and discussed with each other.

"Hey, do you know why the village chief wants us to go there?"

"I don't know. Maybe it's a good thing. It's the end of the year now. Maybe the inn is making money and there's money to share!"

As soon as everyone heard that there was money to be shared, they all sped up their work.

At the entrance of the ancestral hall, the village chief moved out another table, and Shen Ping and Cheng sat next to it. There was an account book on the table.

Everyone was happy. Looking at the situation, there might really be money to be shared. After all, Cheng was the one in charge of the inn in Kaoshan Village.

Now that she is here, it seems that this is almost certain.

As more and more people gathered, some villagers could no longer hold back and started whispering to each other before the village chief even started speaking.

"What on earth is going on?"

"That's right. If there's money to share, share it sooner rather than later. I still have to go home and make rice dumplings!"

"That's right, I have to make oil cakes too!"

Seeing the crowd getting noisy, the village chief knew that everyone was getting impatient. He looked at Shen Ping inquiringly, and Shen Ping nodded at him.

"Cough cough~"

The village chief coughed twice and stretched out his hands to stop them: "Everyone, be quiet~"

Seeing the village chief start to speak, everyone quieted down, held their breath, and looked at him in unison, afraid of missing a word.

Seeing that no one was saying anything, the village chief spoke slowly: "Everyone knows that our village has opened the Kaoshan Village Inn. I believe everyone also wants to know whether this inn is making money?

Today is New Year's Eve. We asked Manager Cheng to do some statistics. Although it has been less than a year, we have indeed made some money, and it is quite considerable."

The inn really made money. When everyone heard this, they looked at each other in surprise. It seemed that everyone had guessed it right.

Then, the village chief asked Cheng to hand over the account book, which counted every income and expenditure of the Kaoshan Village Inn.

Many villagers could not read, but they could still do the math. As they listened to the village chief report every income and expenditure, some villagers who could count took a stick and wrote it down on the ground.

"How is it? Is this account correct?"

The villagers who didn't understand what was going on were looking at the circles on the ground as if they were watching a show.

"That's right!" The villager nodded heavily.

Everyone was completely convinced at this moment. They didn't expect that this inn could actually make money. And it was quite a lot, a full 53 taels of silver.

The scene was completely boiling with excitement. This inn had only been open for a few months, and it had generated such a profit. There would be even more in the future. Just thinking about it made one happy.

"Everyone, be quiet~"

The village chief spoke again: "Mrs. Dachun said that although she invested a lot, the Keshan Village Inn belongs to the public, and the money earned belongs to the collective, so the money should be divided equally among everyone."

As soon as the village chief said this, the scene fell into silence. No one expected that Dachun Niang would be so generous that she would give away the money she had earned.

"What are you all doing standing there? Let's applaud Dachun Niang." The village chief's wife, Xiao, took the lead in applauding.

"it is good!"

Everyone looked at Shen Ping and applauded enthusiastically.

Zhang Tiezhu and his wife looked at each other. They had never expected that the second son's wife would think the money was too much and give away such a large sum of money. They felt very upset.

But it was not their turn to decide on this matter. Even though their hearts were bleeding, they still forced a smile. However, that smile was uglier than crying.

In fact, if you think about it from another perspective, this is actually a good thing. At least they can get more money.

Jiang from the third room curled her lips and felt a little sour in her heart. She knew that her second sister-in-law no longer cared about these small amounts of money. She had a long-term vision and naturally thought differently from them.

As for the first wife, Mrs. Xie, she had expected such an outcome. She knew that now, Mrs. Dachun was not only concerned about the money earned from the inn, but also the long-term development of the workshop.

With this inn, merchants from other places will be more sticky. After all, the village is remote and close to the mountains, so this makes things much more convenient.

This inn is not only beneficial to the workshop, but also indirectly increases the income of the villagers.

The net profit of 53 taels of silver already excluded the working capital. Cheng calculated that there were a total of 946 households in Kaoshan Village. By this calculation, each household received coins.

Each household received nearly one or two taels of silver. The villagers were overjoyed and felt fortunate that they had invested in the inn.

Apart from the little money I paid at the time and the effort I spent when I started, the rest was all easy money.

And they don't have to spend any effort or energy at all, it's just like picking up money.

Under the instructions of the village chief, each household sent a representative to line up. Cheng would first check the list and then go to Shen Ping to collect the money.

Liao was waiting in line, feeling very happy and smiling from ear to ear. Fortunately, his daughter-in-law Gao insisted on investing despite his objections.

I nagged her a lot about this matter, but I didn't expect that I bet on the right person.

"Ms. Liao, I remember that you didn't object at that time. Why are you here so happily now to collect the money?" Mrs. Luo, the wife of the butcher Zhang, looked at Ms. Liao with sidelong glances.
