Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim

Li Xiuzhi's expression suddenly changed, and she waved her hands repeatedly: "No, Erlang...I can't do it."

Chen Lang walked up to Li Xiuzhi, put his hands on her shoulders, and said gently: "Xiuzhi, listen to me."

“The revenue of Guhonglou after that was not as scary as it is these few days.”

"More than half of our revenue these past few days has come from tips given to Xie Qinghuan and membership fees."

"Once this craze has passed, everyone will gradually become more rational. By then, earning 180 taels of silver a month will be quite good."

"So you don't have to worry about not being able to calculate the accounts clearly. If you really can't figure it out, or if you make a mistake, your husband will cover it for you."

Li Xiuzhi was still a little hesitant. Seeing this, Chen Lang increased the "dose" and said with a deliberately stern face, "Xiuzhi, since you won't settle the account with Guhonglou, do you want Xu Mengru to do it?"

"No!" Li Xiuzhi retorted subconsciously.

Seeing Chen Lang staring at her with a half-smile on his face, Li Xiuzhi knew that she had been "tricked" by Chen Lang again. She punched Chen Lang's chest with her pink fist and said, "You're so annoying. You only know how to tease me."

Chen Lang took Li Xiuzhi into his arms and said, "Xiuzhi, the tofu shop is given to Xiaohu, the bras are given to Xu Mengru, and Guhonglou is our first serious major project."

"This project is very profitable, very profitable. The audit should be done by the two of us."

"But before I pass the imperial examination, I still have to study on weekdays, especially when the exam is approaching, so I will have even less time to care about Guhong Tower."

"If I ask you to accept it then, you will only panic more."

"Guhonglou is just starting out now, this is the best opportunity for you to join."

"Also, didn't I teach you Arabic numerals? You'll find it very convenient to use them to keep accounts."

Li Xiuzhi muttered, "I'm just afraid. The amount is too large and I can't figure it out."

"Take it slow. Everyone has come this far step by step. Even Xu Mengru wasn't born knowing how to settle accounts."

Li Xiuzhi asked, "Erlang, do you not trust the owner of Guhong Tower?"

Chen Lang nodded: "You can't say you don't trust me. If you employ someone, trust him. If you don't trust him, don't employ him."

"But anything involving money must be clear. If it's unclear, conflicts are bound to break out in the future."

"The more profitable the business, the more this is necessary."

"To be honest, the money I gave to Xie Qinghuan and Tian Yuzhu over the past few days was actually quite confusing. It's just that since we just opened, I didn't look into it too deeply."

"After a while, I will design a special process for rewarding, so that those young masters can have both face and substance."

Li Xiuzhi frowned: "I don't understand."

"To put it simply, two plus one equals five." Chen Lang said, "I'll return half of whatever he gives me as a reward, or even more."

"If we do this, the gentlemen will be able to send flower baskets with even more impunity, and the reputation of our Guhong Tower will also rise."

Li Xiuzhi was stunned: "Isn't this a fraud?"

Chen Lang laughed and said, "This is called business tactics."

Anyone who has watched the live broadcast for a few days will understand this routine.

The live broadcast rooms of many female anchors are very lively, and rockets worth hundreds of thousands of dollars are sent out at any time.

But the actual reward amount may be only 10,000 or 20,000 yuan, and the excess amount is fake.

The ultimate purpose of doing this is to lure the real leeks into doing something. If one leek gives a gift worth a hundred or so yuan, then one hundred or a thousand leeks together will add up to a very large amount of money.

Since we are going to do the ancient version of live broadcast rewards, we have to adopt all these tricks.

After Chen Lang's repeated persuasion, Li Xiuzhi finally agreed to be the accountant.

That night, he took back the account book of Guhonglou and began to calculate carefully.

In order to settle the accounts, he didn't even have time to entertain himself with Chen Lang.

Chen Lang also breathed a sigh of relief.

There is almost no peace at night these days.

No matter how strong the cow is, it needs to take a breath.

After all, there are only exhausted cattle and no plowed land.

Over the next half month, Li Xiuzhi gradually became proficient from the initial difficulties.

In addition, she used Arabic numerals, which made her account book completely incomprehensible to others.

The more they don’t understand, the less likely the people in the store will act recklessly.

However, this is not the end. After working as an accountant for half a month, Li Xiuzhi actually developed a subordinate!

It’s Miss Rou’er from Hongxiuzhao.

And Li Xiuzhi also helped Rouer redeem herself!

When Chen Lang learned about this, he was completely shocked.

Human potential is indeed unlimited. When Li Xiuzhi was first asked to be the accountant, she was very panicked.

In less than half a month, I got myself offline!

Having said that, Miss Rou'er is indeed a very good candidate for the offline position. She is cute and speaks softly, but she is very efficient and quick-witted.

Li Xiuzhi's purpose in developing her was to let Rouer help count the number of flower baskets every day.

Rou'er did not disappoint Li Xiuzhi's expectations and managed the rewards clearly.

Guhong Tower is developing smoothly, but Xu Mengru is still struggling.

Although several sets of bras were sold, the market still failed to open up fully, and the reputation of the bras was still confined to the group of prostitutes.

Chen Lang told Xu Mengru not to worry.

The Oiran Contest is the real home of bras.

The Oiran Contest is not a closed competition, but a competition for the entire county.

Although brothels were despised by many decent women in ancient times, at the official level, they were a legitimate business!

And every Oiran Contest can boost the local economy, so the government is very supportive of brothels holding Oiran Contests.

With the support of the government, each Oiran competition would begin warming up about a month in advance, then choose the best venue and build a high platform. On the day of the competition, the Oirans would take turns to perform and the final winner would be selected.

The entire competition process is open to all the people in the county, and no matter they are wealthy or ordinary people, they can all participate.

Now Xu Mengru has already won over several strong contenders for the title of Oiran. When the Oiran competition comes, they will perform on stage in their bras, which will surely cause a sensation.

"At that time, what Miss Xu is worried about is not the bras that cannot be sold, but how to select customers so that the bras can be sold without offending too many people." Chen Lang said with a smile.

"Even if I can't get the Oiran, I still have a backup client here. If the Oiran route doesn't work, I'll try this route."

Xu Mengru asked suspiciously, "Who is the client that Master Chen is talking about?"

Chen Lang said, "The young lady of the Linshui Wang family."

"But Miss Xu, don't get your hopes up too much. After all, this matter hasn't even begun to unfold yet."
