Crossing the famine, I am a poor fish, and my descendants have to work hard

The furs at Jinguo Shop are also good.

Zhao Yuanzhen picked out the ones that were inexpensive and good-looking, and gave one to each shopkeeper as a reward.

When Zhao Yuanzhen was visiting the market, she discovered that the Kingdom of Jin had a very good specialty, which was Raohe black honey.

Their honey has crystals as white as cream, with a pure floral scent and is very delicious.

Zhao Yuanzhen bought all the honey she saw.

There are many benefits of drinking honey for a long time, it can replenish energy, moisten the lungs, and calm the nerves.

She planned to share some with her family next time she returned to the capital, so she bought more.

The largest share of trade in the Jin Dynasty was livestock trading.

Basically, all the sellers in the entire live animal trading market are Jin people, and they sell many types of animals, including horses, cattle, sheep, camels, deer, etc.

Each type is further divided into many categories, such as Sanhe cattle, Sanhe horses, sheep, Hanyang, Yorkshire and so on.

In the Jin Dynasty, there was no need to report the killing of cattle; people could kill them at will.

Zhao Yuanzhen suddenly found a way to achieve beef freedom. She immediately picked fat cows and bought 10 of them, planning to kill them slowly and eat them.

Some fat and strong horses were also bought to replace the less strong horses in the transport team.

Maybe because of running back and forth, time flies by quickly and it’s already October.

The farmers in the village have already started grinding flour in various ways, threshing corn, and making rice noodles, rice vermicelli, vermicelli, and rice noodles.

In about another month, everything will be done and we can give them a holiday.

When signing the contract, it was stated that depending on the type of work, for example, farmers would not have to work or be paid during the winter when it was not busy, but three meals would be provided.

They all understand that when they are at home, they don’t have to work all year round, so it is normal not to get paid if they don’t work.

During this period, Zhangjiazhuang will issue some seasonal tasks, such as charcoal burning. Those who have free time can sign up to make charcoal, and wages will be paid according to the working hours.

Since the workshop was built and various shops opened for business, no accounts have been reported.

Everything was quite busy before and things were not on track, but now they are on track. Zhao Yuanzhen asked Lan Ying to notify the shop owners, workshop managers, and department heads to come to the meeting tomorrow night to report the accounts.

There are 12 shops in Xiaoshan County, 7 trade markets, and one in Yanshan Prefecture.

There are 8 workshops in total.

There are 11 departments.

The evening meeting was held in the conference room in the affairs hall, which was specially designed by Zhao Yuanzhen for meetings.

The meeting was chaired by Zhao Yuanzhen, Lan Ying, Zhang Yu and 37 other people.

"Hello, sir."

"Well, everyone, sit down. From now on, the first of every month will be the day for reimbursement. We will start with the shops, starting with those in Xiaoshan County."

Grocery stores were the first to start accounting.

"Yes, ma'am. I'm the owner of a grocery store. My name is Zhang Xiaoshang. I want to report the accounts from the beginning of the store to now. It's about three and a half months. The total business of the store is two, of which the profit is two. Here is the account book, please take a look."

"Well, Lan Ying, bring it here."

The shopkeeper made two copies of these account books, keeping one in the shop and giving one to Zhao Yuanzhen.

There are few people in Xiaoshan County, so it is already very good for a grocery store to have such a turnover.

When other shops in Xiaoshan County reported their accounts later, their sales were not very high.

The fresh food shop in Xiaoshan County made a profit of 4800 taels, the ceramic shop made a profit of 2900 taels, the bookstore and storytelling shop made a profit of 9200 taels, and the sweet drink shop made a profit of 3800 taels.

The grain shop made a profit of 3160 taels, the wine shop made a profit of 9450 taels, the clothing shop made a profit of 840 taels, the clinic made a profit of 890 taels, the snack shop made a profit of 1020 taels, the freight made a profit of 120 taels, and the brick and tile shop made a profit of 170 taels.

Then it was time to settle accounts with the shops in Yanshan Prefecture.

"Hello everyone, I am the representative of the Yanshan Mansion New Toys Display Shop. Because our shop is managed by the sales team, I also report the sales revenue of the entire sales team. There are 20 people in our sales department. In about three months, the total value of the orders reached 183 million. Here is the order, please take a look."

Wow!

The sales team was looked at with shock. Who are these people? The sales in three months were 193 million.

Sales do not calculate specific profits, and some of them do not know the costs, so they only need to calculate the total order and detailed order.

"The sales department sells all the items produced by our farm. There are many varieties, so the orders are naturally larger. The trade shop has started to report the accounts."

Zhao Yuanzhen looked at them in shock and explained.

"Hello everyone, I am the owner of the grocery store in the Border Trade Market. My name is Zhang Maoshang. Our store has been open for 18 days. The total turnover is 4.1 and the profit is . Here are the accounts, please take a look."

The owner of a grocery store in Xiaoshan County has become autistic!

Wow, others’ turnover in 18 days was more than what he made in more than three months. He was so ashamed.

"The shopkeepers in Xiaoshan County don't have to be sad. The trade targets at the border are the Liang Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom. It's normal for the amount to be larger. When our Xiaoshan County develops in the future, you will also create legends."

"Thank you for your comfort, Master."

After hearing what Zhao Yuanzhen said, the shop owners felt much better.

Zhao Yuanzhen nodded and motioned for them to continue.

The fresh food shop in the trade market made a profit of 6200 taels, the grain shop made a profit of taels, and the wine shop made a profit of taels.

The clothing shop made a profit of 3800 taels, the freight business made a profit of 1800 taels, and the brick and tile business made a profit of 1100 taels.

This was followed by the accounts of the various departments.

"Hello everyone, I am the team leader of the Finance Department, my name is Zhang Xiaocai, our department is responsible for all the money accounts of the entire manor, various expenses, wages, food purchases, various repairs and sales of the manor, etc. Since February of this year, our total expenditure is two. Here is the account, please take a look."

Next are the financial expenditure accounts of the warehouse department, personnel department, logistics department, etc.

Among them, the total profit of the special window of the Logistics Department was 38 tael, and the total output of the Ministry of Agriculture was taels of grain.

Finally, several departments that did not have accounts reported on the content and progress of their work.

"Okay, leave the account here. I'll check it in time. Next, you can give me any good opinions or suggestions."

The people below were silent, their eyes looked at their noses, and their noses looked at their hearts.

Seeing them like this, Zhao Yuanzhen had no choice but to give them reassurances.

"Don't worry, you won't be punished for expressing your opinions. As long as what you say makes sense, you will be rewarded. Okay, speak up."

"Hello, boss. I'm from the property management team. I have a small suggestion. Zhangjiazhuang is too dark at night, which makes it inconvenient to patrol. Can you provide some lanterns?"

Zhao Yuanzhen was stunned. Didn’t she give her a lantern?

Seeing her like this, Lan Ying knew that she had forgotten, and nodded at her.

Okay, I forgot.

"Okay, I forgot before. I will give you lanterns tomorrow and hang some lanterns in the village. You actively put forward suggestions and are conducive to the good development of Zhangjiazhuang. I will reward you with 5 taels of silver. Just go to the finance department to withdraw it."

"Thank you, boss! Thank you, boss!"

The property team leader was so excited that he received 5 taels of silver just for a small suggestion.

When the people behind him saw that he really did not punish him and even gave him money, they all began to give positive opinions and suggestions.

Not all the opinions or suggestions put forward were useful. Zhao Yuanzhen asked Lan Ying to sort out the useful ones and prepare to implement them one by one later.

Rewards were also given to those who gave suggestions.

"Okay, everyone has performed well. I hope you can keep up the good work next time. Let's adjourn the meeting."

"Yes, boss."

Zhao Yuanzhen and Lan Ying also went back with a pile of account books.

She still needs to look at the account book before summarizing it.

These account books were too old, covering several months, and Zhao Yuanzhen spent several days looking at them.

The total profit is 175.5 million.

Zhangjiazhuang is just getting on the right track, and I believe its turnover will increase in the future.

Zhao Yuanzhen bought a lot of lamp oil and customized many glass lanterns, which were to be hung at designated locations in the farm.

She set a certain distance for each road and installed a lantern.

The property management should turn on and off the lights in a timely manner.

The lights are on from 6 to 8 p.m., and basically everyone goes to bed after 8 p.m.

The property was also equipped with portable lanterns.

Lanterns were also hung in the cafeteria, the office hall, her small courtyard, and the main gate.

The lamp oil she ordered from the system was relatively cheap. The market price was 350 wen per catty. She bought it from the system for 1 catties for 200 point. She gave the farm a discount and sold it for 260 wen per catty.

Only when consumers feel that they have made a good deal will they consume actively.

Even so, Zhao Yuanzhen could still earn 255 coins per pound of lamp oil.

The property began to actively promote lamp oil.

A dormitory buys one kilogram, which can be used for half a year if you are frugal. Six people share 6 wen, which is a little more than 260 wen per month on average. This little money is not enough to buy a bowl of wontons, but it can enjoy the light.

After the property management team's deception, a lot of lamp oil was sold.

Zhao Yuanzhen also put cotton coats on the shelves.

Cotton-padded clothes are divided into thick cotton-padded clothes and thin cotton-padded clothes.

A thick cotton coat weighs 4 kilograms of cotton, the pants weigh 1.5 kilograms, and the top weighs 2.5 kilograms. A thin cotton coat weighs 2 kilograms, the pants weigh 0.5 kilograms, and the top weighs 1.5 kilograms.

The cost of thick cotton clothes is 350 wen, and the cost of thin cotton clothes is 210 wen.

The system's thick cotton-padded jackets are 1 sets for 20 point, equivalent to about 50 wen per set, and the thin cotton-padded jackets are about 40 wen.

Zhao Yuanzhen offered discounts internally, with thick cotton coats priced at 280 wen and thin cotton coats at 160 wen.

In this way, she can earn 230 wen for a thick cotton coat and 120 wen for a thin cotton coat. If she sells 1 sets of each, she can earn more than 2300 taels.

It's not easy to make money from the working people. I only made more than 2000 taels by selling so much. It seems that the rich are still being ripped off.

Zhuangzi began to recruit charcoal burners. The salary was still 1.5 taels per month.

The coal is needed to supply the canteen and dormitories in Zhangjiazhuang, as well as orders from Yanshan Prefecture and the trade fair. The demand is increasing.

The Jin people discovered that the coal from Zhang's shop was not only cheap, but also easy to burn, produced no smoke, and burned longer than cow dung.

They rushed to buy it.

Gradually, the reputation of the Zhang and Zhao families began to open up the market in the Jin Dynasty, and the products of these two families must be of high quality.

The price is not expensive and the quality of the items is good.

All the goods purchased from Zhao Yuanzhen, which were under the reputation of the Zhao or Zhang family of the Daliang Dynasty, were easy to sell.
