She always wanted to be my cash machine

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Father Gu started to peddle again.

One day, Gu Yanchuan found that his father was home early, and there was still a sack full of items piled up in the yard.

Gu Yanchuan entered the room, looked at Gu's father and asked, "Father, what is this?"

"Today, I went to shopkeeper Zhou's cloth store. He has some rare and good fabrics. There are rags, but they are also very rare." Father Gu said as he walked forward, untied the rope on the sack, and took out Show Gu Yanchuan some pieces of fabric.

Gu Yanchuan went up to touch the material, and it was indeed some high-grade satin, silk, and even some silk, although they were leftovers from some clothes, but it was also a material that ordinary people would hardly see.Gu Yanchuan touched it and said, "It's really rare."

"If it weren't for the flirtatious relationship between me and the shopkeeper Zhou, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get this product today."

"What is Father going to do with these rags?"

"I'll go to a village tomorrow to ask about the situation. These cloths are just enough to make some purses."

"Father, have you ever thought that rich people disdain these materials, but people in the countryside can't afford these materials, and people in ordinary towns don't have extra time to deal with them. I'm afraid it will be hard to sell!"

"Hey... I didn't think about this. Listening to what you said, I'm afraid this business will be difficult. What should I do? The money that doesn't go out is going to be wasted."

Gu Yanchuan lowered his head and thought for a while, then made up his mind, and said: "Father, my boy, here are some hairpin making techniques from ancient books. I know that my mother and eldest sister are good at female reds. I want to keep these rags. , make a deal."

"How sure are you?"

"About [-]%. My child is no longer able to take the imperial examination, and the current plan is to go into business, so I want to give it a try no matter what."

"This is also a path. I will leave these rags to you. You can discuss the specific matters with me and your mother. If there is indeed a shortage of money, we will try our best to squeeze it out for you."

"Father, there is no need to worry too much. The child earned some silver taels a few days ago, which should be enough. I drew a pattern so that my mother and eldest sister can discuss related matters."

During the meal, Gu Yanchuan raised his thoughts with Gu's mother, and his sister-in-law Youshi made some sarcastic remarks, but Gu didn't care much.Gu's mother said that she would ask Sister Gu to come to the house in a few days, and they discussed together.

Gu Yanchuan's heart is burning hot, this is the first business he will do when he comes to the Great Zhou Dynasty.During the night, the lamp was turned on and the brush was not working well, so I took a piece of charcoal, sharpened it, and painted according to the style in my mind.It was not until Zishi that he drew the four styles that he thought were the most beautiful: the plum blossom bell hairpin, the purple duck exquisite hairpin, the red plum hollow hairpin and the ribbed flower double-height hairpin.Use black wood as the hairpin shaft, and silk flowers or twined flowers as the head of the hairpin.

The hairpin head can be handmade by Gu's mother, but who can I find for this rod?And the raw material of this hairpin is probably not enough.Gu Yanchuan decided to discuss with his family members tomorrow to solve the problem.

The next morning, Mother Gu asked someone to bring a message to the elder sister.Two days later in the afternoon, the eldest sister came to the old house with some gifts.

When Gu Yanchuan knocked on the door and walked into the master bedroom in the East Wing, Gu's mother was holding the elder sister's hand and speaking in kind.

Gu Yanchuan entered the door, bowed to the two, handed the four styles of hairpins to his mother, and said, "Mother, eldest sister. I drew these four styles on paper. This pen is not very easy to use. Where it is clear, you can ask me."

Mother Gu and Eldest Sister Gu took the manuscript and couldn't help being a little surprised. This silk flower style is very strange, and the other two entanglement styles have never been heard of.The two mother and daughter looked at each other and sighed in their hearts: If these things can be done, I am afraid they will be very popular.

"Shiro, where did you get these styles?" Mother Gu asked curiously.

"I found it from an ancient book. It is said that it was passed down in the palace." Of course Gu Yanchuan couldn't tell the truth, so he had to make excuses.

"I took a look at this style, and it needs a lot of materials. Silk, silk, ribbons, green non-woven fabrics, thin copper wires, and hairpin rods are all necessary. Shiro, are you ready to make this hairpin rod? Thin copper wire It's not cheap either." Mother Gu asked a little worriedly.

"I discussed with my father yesterday and learned that Mr. Chu on West Street is a lean carpenter, so I went to find him and ordered dozens of black wooden hairpins first." Gu Yanchuan paused, hesitated and said: "This fine Copper wire is not easy to handle..."

"Mother, I think this style can be used without copper wire. It can be fixed with thin thread."

"That's right! This saves materials and time, and it's just as beautiful." Mother Gu clapped her hands in praise.

Once the three of them discussed the plan, they sorted the rags brought by their father, and found that although there were many rags, there were only a hundred pieces of rags that were similar in color, material, and style. There are not many materials left.How good is this?

"Mother and eldest sister, don't worry, I will solve the problem of raw materials." Gu Yanchuan thought about it, and could only save usable rags into the system to earn some interest.

During the spare time, Gu Yanchuan packed the available rags into a bag and called out 001.

"001. I want to deposit this rag in the bank."

【OK.Host, please wait a moment! 】As soon as the words fell, the cloth bag in his hand was gone, and it was deposited in the bank.

"001. How much is the interest on this rag?" Gu Yanchuan hoped to get a high interest.

[Answer the host, the annual interest rate is 24%.What a great rate it is. 】

"Halo! When will we be able to gather the raw materials with an annual interest rate of 24%!"

[May I ask the host, do you want to start a bank loan?After depositing something, you can open the loan mode behind the corresponding item.Given that the host is only a primary user at first, the creditable loan is 10 times that of the original. 】

"It's so considerate. There is also a loan business. How much is the interest? How do you pay it back?"

[Universal Bank performs deposit and loan business.The annual interest rate of the loan is only 240%, calculated on a daily basis, and the longest loan period is 1 year.It can be returned in its original form or converted into cash.What you get is what you earn. 】

"Hehehe, financial institutions are indeed the most black-hearted! Take advantage of the fire to rob, be careful to be struck to death by lightning!"

[Host, this system has always provided the most fair and reasonable financial services, no one is fooled. 】

"That's all. It's really a last resort. Help me borrow 5 times the raw materials first. The loan is 12 months."

【OK.The host, the loan is five times the amount of raw materials, for a total of 12 months, and the interest rate is 240%.Please pay attention to check. 】As soon as 001 finished speaking, Gu Yanchuan saw 5 more bags of useful rags in front of him. This time, the materials can be used for a while.

The problem of raw materials was solved. On the second day, Gu's mother and eldest sister started making hairpins in a hurry.In order to pay for the hairpin rods, Gu Yanchuan spent 200 Wen to buy 40 finished hairpin rods (already shaped and colored) with the remaining money in his hand.If it is not profitable, Gu Yanchuan is afraid that he will be labeled as a dishonest person by the financial management system and wanted by the universe.It really complies with the old saying: If you don't succeed, you will succeed!

Mother Gu and Sister Gu often made hairpins in the house. Sometimes Sister Gu couldn't come to the old house, so she went home with materials to make hairpins.Gu Yanchuan took advantage of this time to wander around and get familiar with the town's various places and people's purchasing power.Father Gu and Brother Gu went to sell goods in their respective areas as usual.

Only this sister-in-law, You Shi, often sits in the hall with a handful of fried beans, basking in the warm sun, and making sarcastic remarks, "Your little thing, I thought you could really play with it."

After five days of busy work, the first batch of finished products, ten silk flower hairpins and twine flower hairpins, were finally completed.

"Unexpectedly, the effect of this is really good. Even after I saw it, I was reluctant to sell it, so I hid it myself." Sister Gu held the purple duck hairpin to the sun, watched it repeatedly, and couldn't put it down.

"It's thanks to Shiro's style that he got from an ancient book. Shiro, how do you think we should set the price?" Mother Gu narrowed her eyes and said with a smile.

"Mother, a few days ago, I went to the jewelry store in the market to take a look. The hairpins in the West Street jewelry store are weaker, mostly made of hairpin poles, and few decorative hairpin heads. Even so, it still costs about 20 copper coins. And the jewelry shops on the East Street are mostly silver hairpins and gold hairpins, inlaid with all kinds of jewelry and jade, and the price fluctuates too much, starting at one tael of silver, and going up to a hundred taels." Gu Yanchuan put his The incoming information was analyzed in detail, and then he frowned and thought about it carefully, and asked cautiously: "Our hairpin, the hairpin head costs about 2 renminbi, and the hairpin rod costs 5 renminbi, plus the manual costs of mother and everyone, plus How about a hairpin style that has never been seen before in the world, how about selling it for 100 cash?"

Mother Gu paused for a while, "Is it a bit expensive?"

Gu Yanchuan hesitated slightly, and said slowly: "This is the latest style of hairpin, it should be worth the money, what we sell is creativity and ideas. Let's try the water. If it doesn't work, we can discuss it later."

"I agree with the second brother's idea. I'm afraid our hairpins are no worse than those on East Street. And it's more creative."

Gu Yanchuan nodded, and responded: "That's why we set the price. Tomorrow, my brother and I will go to the East District to drink and sell it."

During dinner, Gu Yanchuan told everyone the news.The whole family also took a few hairpins to look at, and couldn't help but admire them. If there were no blueprints for making this hairpin, it would be difficult to design it.Even the always mean sister-in-law You Shi couldn't help but mutter in her heart, thinking that this is a profitable project, the second uncle didn't think about his elder brother, but a married sister-in-law at the expense of others.This is really wronging Gu Yanchuan, I have already invited my sister-in-law, but Youshi's female celebrity is not very eye-catching, and she is lazy, so how can I blame others.

After the meal, everyone went back to the room with enthusiasm.Gu Yanchuan was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, it seemed as if he had just closed his eyes, and it was dawn.There was also the sound of "Xi Xi Suo Suo" outside the house, and Brother Gu came to wake up after a while.

Enduring drowsiness, Gu Yanchuan struggled to get up from the bed, hurriedly washed his face and brushed his teeth, wrapped a few corn pancakes baked by Gu's mother, and went out with Brother Gu in the early morning.

Since the hairpin is more expensive, it is not suitable for the West Street District, so the two decided to go to the East Street District to try the water.The business has not yet been completed, so the two brothers of the Gu family are still reluctant to build a car. It took a lot of time and energy to walk.For Gu Yanchuan, who has not been active for a long time, this is really a torment. He silently vowed in his heart that if the business succeeds, he must buy a driving cart, even if it is a donkey cart.

Seeing that the East Street was getting closer, Brother Gu asked, "Where does the second brother plan to start selling?"

"Brother, are there any wealthy people in the place where you usually do business?"

"There are indeed a few families."

"This hairpin is more expensive, and most people would not dare to buy it, but for big families, I'm afraid they won't care about the hundreds of pennies, and they can raise the price at that time. We can start with these few households."

"Very good. Let's hurry up then."

The two quickened their pace and arrived at East Street in a short while.First, they found Zhou's family. This week's family was in the grain and rice business. It was quite prestigious in this town, and it was indeed a wealthy family.

Brother Gu, as usual, went to the side door of the Zhou Mansion first, knocked on the iron ring, and someone answered from inside the door. After a while, an old man came over and opened the door, "Oh, it turned out to be Gu Xingshang. This is not just here the day before yesterday, Why are you here again today?"

"Old man, I got a good item yesterday, so I brought it here to open the eyes of the sisters in the house."

As soon as these words fell to the ground, a maid wearing green brocade happened to pass by.
