The Female Assistant of Wei Yuyan Shuangfei

The reason why Xie Shuting was so surprised was because the last page of the account book had a summary column that said, "In the 27th year of Jingyun, the restaurant's operating profit totaled 172 guan."

All the account books have excluded dividends and only record the net profit. This money must be recorded in the account books of Lianhua Building.

Jiang Keqing had already seen Xie Shuting's shocked expression. She stroked the teacup slowly and said, "If we hadn't opened 20 more restaurants this year, the profit would have been even higher."

Confidence, this is the confidence.

The faces of the other shopkeepers couldn't help but tremble.

Xie Shuting restrained her expression and smiled: "I won't interfere with your affairs. The purpose of the restaurant is to make money. How to make money is up to you."

With Xie Shuting's words, Jiang Keqing hurriedly stood up and said, "Since the family has spoken, I will do it with great determination."

"Oh!~"

Xie Shuting instantly became interested and looked at Jiang Keqing and asked, "What other tricks do you have that can attract more people than this Youhuang Residence?"

"Keep it secret. This matter can only be carried out in Bian Jing. If the head of the family goes to Bian Jing by then, he can go and take a look." Jiang Keqing said with a bright smile.

"You! You still like someone who keeps things a secret. Why didn't I notice it before?"

"That's because the master of the family kept his identity too secret, otherwise he would have known my methods long ago." Jiang Keqing responded with a smile.

Smiles are the most contagious. Jiang Keqing's unbridled smile also caused everyone to laugh and say, "We admire Manager Jiang's methods."

"Don't admire me."

Jiang Keqing said while joking, looking at Gu Chong, "The master of the house has told me that you have to lower the price of Huichuntang. Otherwise, if I have a headache or fever in the future, I will go to your place and it will not increase my sales."

"You!" Gu Chong begged for mercy again and again. He thought he could not get any advantage from Jiang Keqing.

But Jiang Keqing's words reminded him that if he wanted to reduce Huichuntang's profits, in addition to giving back to the people, why not give back to the internal staff of the Chamber of Commerce.

Because Lian Yue had informed them a few months ago, the Lianjia Chamber of Commerce appeared to be a loose sand in the eyes of outsiders, and the various merchants could not communicate with each other.

If it cannot be avoided, they can only negotiate in private. This is also the reason why internal staff are very cautious when going out, for fear of being caught.

Even during their meeting in Yizhou this time, Lian Yue had to arrange twenty substitutes to rush to various corners of the Song Dynasty.

Seeing that everyone was in harmony and no longer as reserved as before, Xie Shuting picked up the merchant's account book.

After checking it out, he showed satisfaction on his face. He looked up at Lian Yue and said, "We have started to make a profit in the past six months. Has Wang Lang opened up the maritime trade?"

"Yeah!~"

Lian Yue nodded and said, "Wang Lang came back in the middle of the year and said that maritime trade has been established, and the porcelain and silk of the Song Dynasty are very popular among foreign countries."

Xie Shuting had no doubt about Wang Lang's statement. Whether in her previous life or before she traveled through time, the porcelain, silk, and even tea of ​​the Song Dynasty were also popular among foreigners.

But at present, the tea ceremony of the Song Dynasty is also a continuation of the previous dynasty. It is not that this kind of tea is bad, but it is only used by the upper class.

Most people at the bottom of society just drink a bowl of tea to quench their thirst, so they don’t have the energy to make tea or quote words, which is a waste of time for them.

Thinking of this, Xie Shuting looked at Lian Yue and asked, "How are the developments of Quanzhou's rock tea and Jiangnan's Longjing tea going?"

"According to the instructions of the family master, the rock tea is now on track, but the Longjing tea is indeed a bit troublesome. There may be problems with the process. We plan to try it again during the Qingming Festival next year."

"Yeah!~"

Xie Shuting nodded and said, "According to what I said, no matter what the finished product is like next year, give me a batch first so I can try it."

"Okay!" Lian Yue responded.

"Miss Yue! Please send more to Shu Ting so that I can try some too." Li Shixian raised her eyes with an expression that said you know what happened, which made everyone laugh.

But when they thought of Li Shixian's martial arts attainments, the few people who knew him well immediately stopped talking, and Xiang Lin was the fastest among them.

Xie Shuting couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't worry, if I have you, I won't leave you behind."

"Hey!~"

Li Shixian smiled back, waved his hand and said, "You guys continue, continue."

The account books have been read and everything that needs to be said has been said. Everyone knows that the next step is to make decisions for next year. This is the consistent style of the Lianjia Chamber of Commerce.

Lian Xi had already prepared and took a piece of rice paper from the desk behind him and spread it on a board behind Xie Shuting.

"Let's talk about the first thing first."

Xie Shuting paused for a moment and pointed to the words "Storing grain to protect the people" on the backboard, and said loudly, "Starting tomorrow, Shopkeeper Shen must ensure that the two shops under Jinghu South Road and Jiangnan West Road have enough grain. It doesn't matter if it's refined rice or corn, as long as it's edible brown rice, we must have enough."

Shen Congyun looked at Xie Shuting with difficulty. He could not suppress the doubts in his heart after all. He bowed his head and asked, "Master! How much does each shop have?"

"The total volume of each shop is 100,000 dan."

Shen Congyun didn't ask why or the specific reasons, because Xie Shuting's words were right after all, because everyone had experienced her foresight.

"Manager Gu! Still in the above places, you need to ask the various branches of Huichuntang to prepare enough medicinal materials, mainly for treating plague and cooling down the heat. In addition, Bianjing must also prepare everything."

"Yes!~" Gu Chong leaned over and responded.

"Manager Qi! It's also the two places mentioned above. You will send the money from the bank to the city for supervision through the Fuwei Escort Agency. As for the fees, follow the rules of the Escort Agency."

"Yes!~" Qi Tai leaned over and responded.

Through a series of strategies, everyone has guessed that there will be a major disaster next year, and the location is clearly Jinghu South Road and Jiangnan West Road.

It was not until this moment that Zhao Ze, the head manager of Jinxiufang, understood why Xie Shuting asked him to store 1.5 million rolls of raw silk.

Seeing that everyone had tasks, Jiang Keqing said with a bitter look on her face: "Master! Then I..."

"It won't have any impact on you. Just do it according to your own thinking." Xie Shuting comforted her.

After all, restaurants do business with wealthy people. Even if droughts or floods come, they will not threaten the wealthy and will not cause much fluctuation in the restaurant business.

Seeing that everyone understood her intention, Xie Shuting pointed to the second item and said, "Lian Yue! After the new year, go to Jiangnan to find a man named Zeng Hao. This man is the head of the Jiangnan Road Canal Transport Department."

"The master wants to..."

"The Fuwei Escort Agency is in charge of land transportation, and the Chamber of Commerce should also take over the grain transport. After you find this person, you can either acquire or establish a grain transport company by the end of April next year."

In the past, everyone would have discussed Xie Shuting's remarks, but after several years of development, the foundation of Lianhua Building did not require it at all.

At the same time, everyone also remembered Zeng Hao's name deeply in their hearts, because they knew that in the near future, he would also be one of them.
