MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 519 The melon is ripe
Qiu Yan gritted her teeth and said, "Do you have any other requests?"
For example, if you want to borrow money from him to build a factory or something like that.
Qin Yao smiled faintly. She had the money now, but there were some details that she needed to explain clearly to him.
"If Fulong Trading Company cannot push out the lady's box, it would be reasonable for me to find another trading firm to cooperate with, right?"
Qiu Yan narrowed her eyes slightly, "Right now, Fulong Trading Company is the strongest in Zijing Mansion. If we can't push it out, let alone other firms."
Qin Yao still smiled lightly, "But Zijin Mansion is not the only place in the world."
After finishing her words, Qin Yao saw that Qiu Yan's face was a little worried, and Qin Yao immediately said back, "But I believe that with the strength of Fulong Trading Company, the cooperation between our two companies will definitely make the Lady's Box a big seller!"
"It's natural." Qiu Yan finally had a smile on her face. Seeing that Qin Yao was tired, she told her that she could go to the backyard guest room to rest first, and then he would ask her to get up and check after the contract was drafted.
Qin Yao was not polite, thanked her, and went to the backyard to rest with the store clerk.
Qiu Yan was very fast. As soon as Qin Yao woke up from her nap, the contract was already drawn up.
After the two people checked on the spot and everything was correct, they each signed their seals and ran to the Yamen while it was still early in the morning to find a middleman to guarantee the contract, and the contract came into effect on the spot.
Before leaving, Qiu Yan couldn't help but say one more thing: "If Mrs. Qin is inconvenienced, just speak up. Qiu will definitely not refuse if she can."
The look in Qin Yao's eyes hinted at temptation.
He was really curious about how much money she had and whether she could make such a luxurious lady's box.
According to the agreement, the stationery factory will hand over one hundred ladies' boxes to the trading house before the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, so that they can make their debut in the capital during the Mid-Autumn Festival and create momentum.
Qiu Yan can calculate the profit of the stationery factory, so he can also calculate the portion in Qin Yao's hands.
But he didn’t know that Qin Yao had also made a lot of extra money and had raised funds and invested in shares after returning to the village, so he naturally felt unsure.
Qin Yao said seriously: "Don't worry, I will deliver the promised quantity of goods on time with good quality and quantity."
After hearing her words, Qiu Yan was really relieved. When she returned to the business that night, she immediately summoned all the managers and started to pave the way for the debut of Ladies Box.
Qin Yao also didn't stop for a moment. As soon as he got the contract, he immediately returned the next day.
Without Wang Jin, the journey was extremely safe.
But on the day Qin Yao arrived in Liujia Village, she suddenly received a letter from Qiu Yan.
The letter clearly told Qin Yao that a big shot threatened Fulong Trading Company to interrupt all business dealings with Liujiacun Stationery Factory.
However, everything has been resolved by Qiu Yan, who told Qin Yao to produce the ladies' boxes with peace of mind and not to worry too much. The two ladies' boxes she left in Fucheng are already on their way to the capital.
Because of the beautiful misunderstanding before, Qiu Yan secretly asked Qin Yao if she still had contact with Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Qin Yao raised her eyebrows. Sometimes she felt that she was quite thick-skinned and didn't want to clear up this beautiful misunderstanding.
Especially when he is still being targeted by big shots, if he does not borrow the name of the eldest princess, the stationery factory will be in danger.
So he took out the token that Mu Ling had given him before, rubbed it on white paper with ink, and asked Liu Bai's motorcade to take it to Fucheng.
Qiu Yan felt relieved when she saw the rubbing pattern on the reply letter.
For the current plan, he can only continue to mediate with the big shot, and all he has to do is wait for the Royal Censor to arrive in the capital.
However, a mad dog that knows it is about to die is prone to bite people, and Qiu Yan is under great pressure.
On Qin Yao's side, several rounds of group annihilation left a huge shadow on the opponent, and for a while he didn't dare to provoke her. In addition, there is still Song Zhang in Kaiyang County. As long as Qin Yao does not leave Kaiyang County, he will be safe.
Putting aside these secret wars at the top, Qin Yao devoted herself wholeheartedly to the comprehensive upgrade of the stationery factory.
But with Song Yu as a professional assistant, Qin Yao only had to worry about two things.
The first thing is money.
The second thing is money!
But the former is her own money, and the latter is money raised from shares.
On the second day after returning to Liujiacun from Fucheng, Qin Yao took advantage of the evening when the villagers had finished their dinner to hold a shareholding meeting in the ancestral hall.
Due to the limited cultural level of the villagers, at most they only knew one or two hundred words in the literacy class at the stationery factory, it will take some time to understand what Qin Yao said about raising funds, dividends, and investing in shares.
So three days later, Qin Yao held another discussion meeting to solicit the opinions of the entire village and answer their questions.
Out of blind trust in Qin Yao, most of the villagers at the meeting expressed their desire to join. However, when Qin Yao said that only five taels of silver could be purchased for one share, the villagers' faces changed in fright.
But there are always smart people. The situation in the stationery factory is obvious to all. Just look at the newly built big house and the newly purchased farmland of Carpenter Liu’s family.
Fifty taels of silver is actually not too much, and a family can scrape it together.
If it really doesn’t work, you can still sell one or two acres of land.
If the melons are ripe in the ground where there is no land.
When Yin Le and the children ran into the house excitedly holding two pieces of smashed watermelon, Qin Yao was counting the money in her hand.
It’s really not that I don’t know, I’m shocked when I calculate it.
She actually had 2,100 taels of silver in her hand!
This does not include the profit of 650 taels from the book box order with Fulong Trading Company, and the 240 taels from the stationery gift box from Baishan.
The stationery factory also kept two hundred and fifty taels of silver as working capital.
Calculating it this way, the money required for upgrading the stationery factory and preparing for the new factory building is not very stressful, and can even be said to be easy.
Because according to Song Yu's accounts, the investment in the Lady's Box only requires an additional 1,200 taels.
One hundred taels of which were used to upgrade the factory building, and the remaining 1,110 taels were all used to purchase materials—the acquisition of an embroidery house in the county and a jade processing workshop.
With this calculation, Qin Yao feels more confident about the comprehensive upgrade of the factory.
Just a whiff of the sweetness of watermelon wafted over, making my whole body and mind feel happy.
Dalang held up half of the watermelon that he had smashed and handed it to her, and said excitedly: "Mom, the melons in the field are ready to be eaten!"
Sanlang and Si Niang were so greedy that they stared at the other half of the red melon in the second brother's hand. They were waiting for their mother to say something and started to bite.
Yin Le saw the true face of Liang Gua for the first time. Although it smelled strange, he still had doubts about its striped skin. "Master, is this Liang Gu really that delicious?"
Qin Yao put down her abacus and stood up, gesturing for everyone to follow. They came to the kitchen and asked Mrs. Li to bring a kitchen knife. Qin Yao cut the two melon halves into even small slices with a few knives.
She picked it up and took a bite first, and the full sweet juice burst into her mouth, bringing a touch of coolness to her heart and spleen in this hot summer.
Just one word: “Cool!”
