From a freeloader to a world leader
Chapter 37 Taking Money Out of Pocket
After dinner, Sun Shan finally had some time to count the prize money he received from today's performance.
Because, according to convention, the reward money that the guests threw onto the stage belonged directly to the storyteller.
But when Sun Shan quickly checked the reward money, he was dumbfounded.
The two songs and the story of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio took only an hour, and he actually got 252 taels of silver and copper coins.
According to the prices and proportions in this world, one tael of silver is equal to one string of coins, one string of coins is one thousand copper coins, and one copper coin is worth about one yuan.
In other words, after working for an hour, I earned 42252 yuan?
My God, this is more than the daily net income of Jun Youlai Restaurant, which is worth seven or eight thousand taels and has thirty or forty staff.
However, this may be because it is the first day, plus the huge tips from those two bitches Xie Meiyu, that is why there are so many.
But in the future, if he becomes famous and becomes a richer and more powerful boss, will he be more passionate than this woman?
Thinking of this, Sun Shan tossed the exquisite purse that Xie Meiyu had thrown to him, picked up a few silver pieces from the table, and walked out of the room.
"Uncle, you guys haven't slept yet?"
Sun Shan pushed open the half-open wooden door and saw Jacky Cheung and the shopkeeper Zhang Yuhe, drinking in silence with cups in their hands.
"Nephew, why are you here? You've worked really hard today."
When Jacky Cheung saw Sun Shan walking in lightly, he quickly stood up and responded.
Today he saw with his own eyes the results of Sun Shan's planning, and also saw with his own eyes Sun Shan's charming performance.
Sun Shan, who had already risen a lot, rose again to a level that could no longer be looked up to.
He knew that his small pond might not be able to support a fish as big as Sun Shan.
If it weren't for the support he had received since childhood and the advance agreement to marry his daughter to him, Sun Shan, who had just started to spread his wings, would probably have flown under the eaves of someone else's house.
He saw with his own eyes Sun Shan rushing into the private room of the Wang family's mother and daughter.
Moreover, I secretly saw with my own eyes that the two women left with great satisfaction.
Although, he didn't know what exactly happened in the box?
In other words, did Sun Shan do something shameful and obscene under the gaze of four women?
But his relationship with the mother and daughter of the Wang family is definitely very important.
However, he didn't quite understand where Sun Shan got the courage and bravery to have such close contact with the mother and daughter of the Wang family.
Wang Dashan's wife is still okay, but her daughter is Luo Tongpan's woman!
So, although today's performance and restaurant business were very popular, the gross income was as high as more than 90 taels of silver.
If we estimate the net income, it would be about twenty-three or twenty-four taels.
My goodness, that's more than double the previous best record.
If such stable development continues, the annual net income would be as much as six or seven thousand taels of silver!
However, Sun Shan's development and his courage made Jacky Cheung very worried.
Similarly, Zhang Yuhe, who worked hard with him and was only a few years younger than him despite being his nephew, was also worried.
So, after finishing work, the two of them drank alone.
"It's not hard. We all do it together." Sun Shan responded and slowly sat down while looking at the two men's faces.
"Uncle and Shopkeeper Zhang, why do you seem a little unhappy? What's going on?"
"No, no." Jacky Cheung shook his head and denied it: "How could that be? Business was so good today that I am a little tired."
"Haha, that's normal. After all, business is suddenly good, and there are more things to do in various aspects." Sun Shan frowned and made a suggestion: "Uncle, I think we should be prepared in advance and add some manpower. If business is like this in the future, it will affect the service."
Jacky Cheung thought for a moment, and recalled his scholar son, who was later busy helping to order food and tea.
He nodded and said, "That's no problem. How many people do you think would be appropriate to add?"
"Let's add ten first, and then we'll see how things go in the future."
"Okay, this is no problem."
Zhang Xueyou nodded in agreement, thought for a moment, and then said, "Or, when your brothers come back from home, pick a few honest and hardworking people to work in the restaurant, what do you think, nephew?"
Sun Shan was delighted to see that his future father-in-law was so sensible and took advantage of his wishes.
Of course I nodded and agreed decisively.
Then, Sun Shan talked about his own problem: "Uncle, this is the case. I may not be able to finish my job in the accounting office on the second floor."
As he said that, before the two of them could say anything, he went on to explain: "First, I have to tell stories and perform, and second, I have to study and practice martial arts. In the future, there may be many other activities, so I will give up."
"Okay, that's no problem." Jacky Cheung nodded in agreement.
Then he thought, since Sun Shan was going to be asked to work in the store, there would be no shortage of an accountant, so he might as well give it to him and save himself the trouble.
"My dear nephew, please take a look at your accountant to see if there is anyone suitable. If you are busy in the future, he can help you with the accounting."
In his heart, Sun Shan secretly praised the old man for being a good person. Not only did he not hold you back, but he also made things easier for you.
Where can I find such a lovely father-in-law?
I decided not to let down someone's precious daughter and just eat that delicate little flower that day.
Big things have their own taste, and small things have their own taste.
As long as you do a good job afterward and don't create anything artificial, it won't affect her health.
Jacky Cheung had no idea that his humble attitude would make his philandering son-in-law decide to take action against his own daughter.
If he knew that this result was caused by his decision, he wouldn't know whether he should be happy or unhappy.
In fact, this is the fault of the two sluts, the mother and daughter of the Wang family.
I stayed with Sun Shan this afternoon, touching and pinching him, but the time and place were not right, so we both left with resentment in the end.
As a result, the hot-blooded Sun Shan had to drink the cold well water several times before he could suppress his anger.
After chatting about some business matters, Sun Shan took out eight or nine taels of silver from his pocket and placed it in the middle of the table.
This made Jacky Cheung and his nephew feel a little puzzled as they looked at the huge pile of silver.
"Nephew, what are you doing?"
"That's right, uncle."
Sun Shan pinched the change on the table with some reluctance. In the past, his family might not have earned so much from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. Now, he gave it away in just one day.
I feel a little reluctant!
Sun Shan is a little dazed now. He has been in this world for more than a month, and his memories are deeply integrated with his original body.
He found that he had more and more awareness of his original self.
For example, the attitude towards the relationship between men and women, and the concept of money.
"Uncle, I received a reward of 42 taels of silver and 252 copper coins today."
"Oh my god, there are so many!"
Zhang Yuhe, who had been silent until now and listened to the two people talking, was so startled that he knocked over the teacup in front of him and made it roll on the wooden table.
Just as the teacup was about to roll to the ground, Sun Shan grabbed it with ease.
This surprised the two people who were in a panic again.
Sun Shan’s movements are so fast and agile!
While Zhang Yuhe was wiping the table, Jacky Cheung probably understood what Sun Shan meant.
He asked somewhat embarrassedly: "Nephew, what do you mean -----"
"Uncle, this is my share of the 20% reward money-----"
As he spoke, Sun Shan saw what Jacky Cheung wanted to say, and before he could say it, he continued firmly: "I think the reward money should not be all mine. From now on, the rules will be changed. The reward money earned by the performers will be handed over to the restaurant as the fee for the restaurant to provide the venue."
"This, this----"
Jacky Cheung said these two words with mixed feelings. Seeing that Sun Shan had a firm expression, he decided to agree since Sun Shan had divided up the reward money.
"Well, then, I'll do as you decide, nephew. However, according to the old rules, the restaurant is indebted to you."
"Ha ha ha ha-----"
Sun Shan laughed heartily: "What's the point of taking advantage of this? We are all family. My uncle promised his precious daughter to me. We are family and we should not talk behind each other's backs."
"That's right, that's right!"
This time, Jacky Cheung was really happy. He patted Sun Shan on the shoulder and said, "My son-in-law is a good man with a generous personality. He will become a great man in the future!"
Jacky Cheung has been in business for decades and has met all kinds of people.
There are not many people who can take money out of their own pockets, especially someone like Sun Shan who grew up in a poor family and has a strong will.
No matter how he performs in his studies in the future, even if he develops in other directions, he will definitely be an extraordinary person.
One's state of mind and vision determine how far a person can see and how far he can go.
What's more, Sun Shan's performance on stage is enough to prove this point.
Thinking of the collusion between Sun Shan and the mother and daughter of the Wang family, he decided to let his daughter come over earlier and put her in his arms first.
In this world, it is not uncommon for girls to get married at the age of thirteen or fourteen.
Now that you have made up your mind and got the trump card, just gamble generously to save others from being offended!
