"Such a good business, and you thought of it specially for us. Since many steps overlap with making tofu, I think it will be easy for us to get started. You are really thoughtful." Everyone was very grateful.

"It's just that although our ancestors have done business, we have never done it ourselves. We are afraid that even though it is a good business, we will ruin it." Everyone also honestly expressed their concerns.

Everyone said:

“Besides, although there are only a few people in our clan, there are still more than a dozen households. If every household is engaged in this business, isn’t it very likely that some households will not be able to sell their products?

There's also the issue of cost. Although it's basically made from beans, the cost isn't high, but some families in the tribe don't have the money."

The families with many children and no money to start a business have all lowered their heads.

Jiang Ningning asked curiously, "Your ancestors all did business together, why do you want to separate?"

"Ah?" Everyone was stunned.

Xiao Fuhua was stunned at first, but then he was delighted. Yes, a partnership!

Jiang Ningning continued, "There's also the issue of capital. Some people don't have cash as capital, but they can bring in stone mills or other useful items to join the partnership.

For example, an extra-large millstone is worth two taels of silver, a large millstone is worth one and a half taels, a medium millstone is worth one tael, a small millstone is worth half a tael, and an extra-small millstone is worth three hundred coins.

"Can it be like this?" Everyone was happy again. Even their eyes lit up again.

The adults even sent all the children out, hoping to listen to Jiang Ningning more carefully.

It is rare for the clan leader Xiao Fuhua to have such bright eyes.

"Of course, our ancestors bought it with their own money. If we do business together, and you provide the stone mill, we naturally have to calculate the money. Otherwise, how are we going to divide the profits in the end? We must divide the profits based on how much capital we invested at the beginning." Jiang Ningning said.

Every family in the clan has a stone mill, which means that no matter who you are, whether you have cash or not, you can join in this business.

Everyone's eyes lit up, but they thought: "Our stone mill is so old, maybe it can't be worth that much money?"

Everyone is an honest and decent person, and they are from the same clan. They are usually very united and no one wants to take advantage of others in the clan.

Jiang Ningning said, "Aren't all your stone mills good? At most, you just need to replace the wooden parts. I saw stone mills sold in town, and they're about the same price. And they don't seem to be as good as yours."

"That's right, that's right." Everyone was even happier.

The oldest, Xiao Pingshun, was overjoyed and couldn't help but say, "When I was a child, I heard from the clan members that our ancestors bought a good stone mill, so they couldn't bear to sell it at a low price, and it has been passed down from generation to generation."

"Yes," said another grandfather from the tribe, "otherwise how could these stone mills still be so intact after so many years?"

An old lady in the clan also said, "Because we all thought they were handed down from our ancestors, and the prices others offered were really low, we descendants never sold any of them even when times were tough. Now it's a good thing."

"It's a good thing, it's a good thing." Everyone was smiling from ear to ear.

You know, not only does every family in the clan have a stone mill, but each family has more than one.

Xiao Fuhua said, "I'll register and collect the money later to see how much capital everyone can contribute. Then we'll divide the money based on how much money everyone contributed at the beginning."

"Okay, okay." Everyone in the clan had no objections. They all wanted to bring their stone mills to join the partnership, and some families with cash on hand would even bring in some cash to join.

On the other hand, Tian and Xiao Fushan said, "Brother Fuhua, we won't be involved in this business. We need our two stone mills at home, and we also have to take care of the sausage and barbecue business. We don't have that much time. But if you need cash for your business, we can lend you some money to help you out."

"How can we ask you for money? We can collect enough. The business that Ning girl has in mind is really great, and the capital required is not high." Everyone in the Xiao family said.

The tribesman added, "You don't have to participate, but if we make any money in the end, it will definitely be divided between you and Ningning. This is all figured out by you."

Tian and Xiao Fushan laughed and said, "We didn't contribute much. Ningning figured it all out."

Jiang Ningning smiled and said, "You don't have to share it with me."

"How can that be possible? We have to divide it!" everyone in the tribe said. "You figured it all out, so you should get 70%!"

Jiang Ningning smiled and said, "That's really not necessary. I was thinking about this for you guys."

"Then we feel uncomfortable too." Everyone in the tribe said.

Tian and Xiao Fushan both whispered to Jiang Ningning, "They are both very conscientious people. If you really don't want anything, they will be uncomfortable."

Jiang Ningning thought that even if she accepted the money, she could use it for clan affairs in the future.

Moreover, if the tribe wants to develop, it cannot rely solely on making money, but also requires education.

In the future, we will definitely set up schools so that all the children in the clan can go to school. It will be the same if we use the money on the schools.

Jiang Ningning then said, "Okay, then you can give me some, but 70% is definitely not acceptable. 10% will do."

Seeing that Jiang Ningning was willing to share the profits, the Xiao family members were naturally very happy, but: "10% is too little! No, absolutely not!"

The clan leader, Xiao Fuhua, realized that he couldn't keep nagging about this matter, so he decided, "How about this, let's go with 30%. Otherwise, we'd be really sorry."

As for what I cannot repay, I will repay you later.

There is still a long way to go.

"Yes, yes." Everyone else nodded.

Jiang Ningning thought that at least it wasn't 70%. If she made money, each family in the clan would still be able to get a lot. Besides, even if she took 30%, wouldn't it eventually be used for the clan's education?

Then he nodded: "Okay, then 30%."

"Okay, okay." The Xiao family members finally became happy and breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, they were quite afraid that Ning would insist on 10%. That was too little, and they would not agree to it anyway.

Fortunately, they are willing to take 30%, which is definitely more than 10%.

Then all the members of the Xiao family went back to prepare for the business partnership. After they had everything ready, Jiang Ningning would teach them how to make thousand sheets, dried tofu, bean curd sheets and other things.

Although Yang and her family are not at home, they always tell their families how successful the sausage and barbecue business is when they go home.

Xiao Fuhua, Uncle Xiao San and others always heard their wives talking about it, so naturally they believed in Jiang Ningning's abilities more than other people in the clan, and they also believed that this business could make money.

Therefore, even if some of them had only a little cash at home, they would take out most of it, including the stone mill, and join in.
