Red Mansion Fanfiction, Yuanchun became a concubine because of her mother's status

After Yuanchun was put under house arrest, the things sent to Changchun Palace became worse and worse.

At this time, Yuanchun needs to take the money to make arrangements.

Speaking of spending money, Yuanchun thought of the financial problems of the Jia family.

Their Jia family rose from humble beginnings, although their ancestors made great contributions when they helped Taizu to establish the country.

However, the people in their Jia family were not good at business, and after their grandfather passed away, they no longer had capable people in the court, and the Jia family went downhill.

The tragedy that befell the Jia family later was caused by the lack of cash in the mansion.

If it were the original Yuanchun, there would definitely be no way to change the Jia family's predicament.

But the Yuanchun of today is from the 21st century. If we bring things from later times to ancient times, they will not bring a sense of freshness to people.

Yuanchun planned to find a way to make a living for the Jia family.

Although the Jia family has some connections in the military, there are no direct descendants of the family in the army.

In order to prevent her from becoming too successful and threatening the emperor, her grandfather handed over his military power very early on.

People in their tribe cannot join the army, and they don't have the brains to go into politics.

It is too difficult for the men of the Jia family to study and enter the world, and their current dilemma is that the family does not have much assets.

Yuanchun asked someone to send a few prescriptions to her family outside the palace.

These recipes are for making soap.

"Mother, we have tried Yuanchun's recipe. The ointment we made is better than the common ointments on the market. I think this business will work."

Yuanchun first contacted her mother and asked her to conduct the experiment.

The results of the experiment are quite encouraging.

Their Jia family is not a family with a long history, and there are no special skills in the family. This is the shortcoming of their Jia family.

Old Madam Jia was not in a good mood when she looked at the things the maid brought up.

She is Yuanchun's grandmother. Shouldn't Yuanchun tell her about this first?

Now that she has told her biological mother directly, does she, as the grandmother, have to give up her position?

Well, it’s already this time and all Old Lady Jia is thinking about is her own status.

"We are not a noble family like the Jia family. How can we engage in business?" Old Lady Jia was proud of her status and had no intention of doing business.

When it comes to doing business, she thought of the Xue family.

Although she doesn't know how to do business, she knows that doing business is not that simple.

It’s not that you can sell something just because you have good stuff. You also need to find someone who knows how to do business to work with you.

"What does mother mean?"

"Let the Xue family take care of this business, and we'll just take a share of the money," said Old Lady Jia.

Given the relationship between the two families, it is impossible for the Xue family to fall out with the Jia family just for a little bit of profit.

“But mother, the raw materials for this soap are not difficult to find.

As long as we hide this recipe well, we will never run out of money.

It’s fine to cooperate with the Xue family, but that’s just like giving them money for nothing.”

This thing is also easy to make, just the recipe is different.

Mrs. Jia planned to do it herself.

Along with Yuanchun's prescription, there was also a completed business plan.

Even if she doesn't know much about business, she can still make money by following this plan.

Yuanchun also put a lot of thought into the Jia family.

"Whether there is money or not is another matter. The key is the relationship between our two families."

The older people are, the more they value affection.

Take the old lady for example. Compared with money, she values ​​the relationship between the two families more.

This……

Let her think about it, is friendship important or money important?

Their previous relationship has not changed, it’s just that the Jia family is running a small business on their own.

How did it affect the relationship between their two families?

Besides, this prescription was given to her by Yuanchun, so it is her business how to deal with it.

Mrs. Jia was somewhat unconvinced.

"Then how does mother plan to deal with the Xue family?" asked Mrs. Jia.

In the Jia family, her thoughts are not important, what is important is the old lady’s thoughts.

"If you send the things to the Xue family, they will naturally know what to do." said Old Lady Jia.

"After we give them the things, how do we calculate the share?

We provide the prescription, and the Xue family is responsible for the management, and they have to give our Jia family a share of the profits." Second Madam Jia asked.

The solution to the Jia family's predicament is already before her, and she needs to plan it carefully.

"Although the things are good, they have to be appreciated by the Xue family. There is no rush for this."

After the old lady finished speaking, she picked up the ointment on the tray and smelled it.

This ointment really smells good, you can smell the fragrance from far away.

This thing is sure to be popular.

"Mother, before contacting the Xue family, my daughter-in-law plans to promote this ointment in the capital city herself." said Mrs. Jia II.

The Jia family cannot control the distant places, but they can still find a good location in the capital.

"I have no objection to you letting your subordinates do this business, but we don't have much money left in our treasury, so you have to provide the capital yourself," said the old lady.

When it comes to providing capital herself, Mrs. Jia thought of the cash she had in her hands.

After bringing a sum of money into the palace for Yuanchun and paying off her debts, she didn't have much cash left.

I'm afraid that if I raise some money to start a business...

"Sister-in-law, do you want to join in as well?" asked Mrs. Jia.

She thought that the raw materials of the ointment were not expensive and had low cost, but the products produced were good, so this business would definitely be profitable.

Jia Xing shook her head. She didn't have much money on hand, so she backed off when asked to spend money.

"If you don't get involved, the money made in the future will have nothing to do with you," Mrs. Jia reminded.

Since the people from the Jia family don’t dare to take action, then she will go to her mother’s family.

With such a profitable business, are you still worried that no one will do it?

"Just try it first." The old lady didn't say anything definite.

If it's just a small profit, she won't interfere, but if it's a lot of profit, that's another matter.

Didn’t the Jia family suffer from famine a while ago because of debts and had to send a group of people away?

These people were used to working in the Jia family. If they were suddenly let go, they would not be able to find work to do.

Now that she wanted to make this ointment, Mrs. Jia thought of these people first.

People who leave the Jia family are still considered members of the Jia family in the short term.

Among those who were released, more or less, there were people in their families who worked for the Jia family.

With this family around, if we recruit those who have been sent out now, they will not rebel.

Now that she has the manpower, the next step is the venue. She has one or two small farms outside the capital.

Now that we have the land, it’s easy to get the raw materials.

The products produced had to be sold there, which was also easy. The Jia family's shop had always been rented out and they only collected rent.

She could spare a shop or two to sell this ointment.

Mrs. Jia has already figured out this approach.

She only had to work for a while, and then just sit back and wait to get paid.
