A tragic journey through ancient times, trying to make money

Grandpa Zhang went to Lao Jiang's house again and agreed with the eldest son and his wife of Lao Jiang's family to help out in the food store in town. The wages for men are 600 wen and for women are 550 wen. Lunch is provided. They are to gather at Lao Zhang's house at : am tomorrow to go to town.

As soon as Grandpa Zhang left, Lao Jiang told the eldest brother and his wife that they should work hard at the grocery store and not be lazy, because after all, the eldest brother and his wife would be helping out in the grocery store in the future.

You can save more than one tael of silver in a month. You must work hard to justify the high monthly salary.

In fact, when the Jiang brothers heard Grandpa Zhang's purpose in coming to their house, they were also shocked. At that time, they decided to work hard and save money. When they had saved enough money, they would help their third, fourth and fifth brothers get married and live a good life.

Grandpa Zhang found a newly married young couple from the Zhang family in the village, Zhang Zhi and his wife Liu Xiaofeng.

There is another young man whose family conditions are similar to those of Lao Jiang's family. He is also an honest and loyal man. His name is Zhao Wei and he has many brothers and sisters in his family.

Grandpa Zhang talked to them about the monthly salary and the start and end times of work. They gathered at Old Zhang's house early every morning and took the vegetables and mung bean jelly prepared at home to the town.

After Zhang Yunyue got home and rested for a while, he took the contract signed with Jinxiu Tower to Zhang Dashan's house.

Zhang Yunyue walked to the door of Zhang Dashan's house and called to the sisters who were embroidering handkerchiefs in the yard: "Xiaohua, Xiaohe, I'm here."

"Hey, Yueyue, come here quickly."

Zhang Yunyue found a stool and sat down, then said to Zhang Xiaohe, "Xiaohe, I have something to discuss with you guys, so I'll have to trouble you to call Xiaoxiao."

"Hey, what's the trouble? Wait for me, I'll go call Xiaoxiao." After saying that, Zhang Xiaohe ran out quickly.

"Xiaohua, this is good news. You will be very happy after hearing it."

Zhang Xiaohua looked at Zhang Yunyue with shining eyes: "Really." Then she waved her hand: "No, don't tell me now. Wait until Xiaohe and Xiaoxiao come and tell me again."

"Yeah, I'll give you a big surprise then, the kind that will make your jaw drop." Zhang Yunyue raised her eyebrows towards Zhang Xiaohua.

"Yueyue, Xiaohua, I'm here." Zhao Xiaoxiao panted at the door.

"Xiaoxiao, come in and sit down, take a breath first." Zhang Xiaohua brought a stool for Zhao Xiaoxiao and placed it next to Zhang Yunyue, motioning Zhao Xiaoxiao to sit down first.

After Zhao Xiaoxiao and Zhang Xiaohe had rested for a while, Zhang Yunyue handed the contract in his sleeve to the three of them.

"Can you guess what this is?"

"Yueyue, please stop teasing us three. None of us can read. How do you want us to guess? Tell me now, tell me now."

After Zhang Xiaohe finished speaking, the three of them reached out and tickled Zhang Yunyue.

“Hahahaha, stop stop stop, I’m telling you, hahaha, stop it, I can’t take it anymore.”

Seeing Zhang Yunyue surrender, the three men withdrew their hands. "Go ahead."

"This is the contract with Jinxiulou. The first time I went to Jinxiulou to sell a handkerchief embroidered by each of you three, the owner of Jinxiulou, Mrs. Chen, was attracted by the pattern on the handkerchief.

At that time, she wanted us to sell the patterns to Jinxiulou, but I did not agree. Instead, I proposed that I provide two patterns every month, five series for each pattern, and then split the profits 30% to 70%.

Then, Mrs. Chen couldn't make the decision, so she sent a letter to their boss. When I came back that day, I told you to start imagining on your own. I was thinking that if the cooperation was successful, you three wouldn't have to embroider handkerchiefs.

But at that time, I was not sure whether it would be successful, so I did not tell you three. I have already negotiated cooperation with Jinxiulou when I went to town yesterday. On the first day of every month, I will provide two different patterns, and each pattern has five different ways of expression, making it a set. "

Zhang Yunyue paused for a moment, looked at the three people again, and continued:

"What do you three think? Will you continue to embroider handkerchiefs according to the patterns I gave you and sell them to Jinxiulou, or will you embroider your own patterns and give Jinxiulou a share of the profits?

But no matter what, you don't have to worry. You can embroider the handkerchiefs and I will embroider the samples for you.

If it's embroidery patterns, I will work with you. I will draw it with pen and paper first, and then you can match the colors according to my drawing and then embroider a pattern for Jinxiulou.

Then you can also embroider patterns according to your own imagination, but your imagination must be original. When the embroidery is finished, we will look at each other and everyone will be satisfied.

Then we will provide it to Jinxiu Tower, and when the time comes, we will divide the 30% profit Jinxiu Tower will give us into four parts, one for each person, so that no one loses out."

"Wow, Yueyue, how can you be so nice? You could have done the work by yourself, but you let us follow along. I'm so touched." Zhang Xiaohe held Zhang Yunyue's hand, put her head on Zhang Yunyue's shoulder, and cried and acted coquettishly.

"Yueyue, I don't know what to say to you."

"Yes, Yueyue, Xiaohe is right. In fact, you can provide all the tricks for Jinxiulou by yourself. There is no need to call us to join you."

"Hey, you three, good sisters should make money together and get rich together, but you can't be lazy in the future. I will also give you some embroidery patterns every month.

The embroidered handkerchiefs you gave me the day before yesterday were very good. You just need to do it in the same way. Madam Chen even specially praised those two embroidered handkerchiefs.

You guys keep thinking about it later. If you can't come up with an idea, just follow the pattern I gave you and imitate it. So you can't be lazy. When you finish embroidering the handkerchief, I will take it to Jinxiulou in town."

"Well, let's become rich together in the future. Jinxiulou has hundreds of branches in the whole Yuanqi Country, so you have to work hard too. Here, this is the pattern I prepared for the first day of next month. You can embroider it first, and then I will take it to the town."

Zhang Xiaohua took the drawing sample handed over by Zhang Yunyue, and Zhang Yunyue also specifically mentioned what color silk threads were needed, "Yueyue, don't worry, we will embroider it well."

Zhao Xiaoxiao: "Don't worry, Yueyue, I will learn from my mother and teach Xiaohua and Xiaohe. We will definitely improve our embroidery skills."

"it is good."

"Oh, I will be rich in the future. I will become a rich man. I am so happy just thinking about it, hehe." Everyone looked at Zhang Xiaohe's heartless look, which was very cute.

Zhang Xiaohua suddenly thought of something and went back to the house to take out the money that Grandpa Zhang had brought yesterday:

"By the way, Yueyue, this is the money you asked Grandpa Zhang to bring back yesterday. We haven't divided it yet. We'll wait for you to come back. Didn't you spend 90 coins to buy silk and silk thread last time? We know you haven't taken out the money you paid for it. Here,
