"Dad and I have never seen so much silver. We want to keep it at home for one more day to feast our eyes." Dong Qiaoqiao walked in from the outside and said with a smile. She picked some vegetables in her hands. They must have been freshly picked from the field as they were fresh and shiny.
Dong Rende blushed and said with an embarrassed smile, "To be honest, Young Master Lin, I do have this intention. I am almost 50 years old this year, but I have never seen so much silver."
It turned out that this Old Dong was not even 50 years old, but why did he look like he was 60 years old? In Lin Wanrong's original world, people in their 40s and 50s were in the prime of their lives. Those who flirted with their mistresses and those who had their mistresses were living comfortably. Maybe it was because the average age of the people here was relatively young, so Dong Rende, who was less than 50 years old, kept calling himself an old man.
"Look, look, look to your heart's content." Lin Wanrong found a cucumber from the basket carried by Dong Qiaoqiao. He didn't even wash it. He broke it in half and put it in his mouth, chewing it without caring about his image.
Dong Qiaoqiao looked at him funny, but her eyes were full of joy.
"Young Master Lin, what should we do next?" Dong Rende reluctantly withdrew his gaze and patted Dong Qingshan on the back. Only then did this fellow reluctantly withdraw his gaze.
"Uncle Dong, according to the original agreement, we will split it 50-50. There are about 5,000 taels of silver here. I still have some here." Lin Wanrong took out all the silver she had sold in the afternoon. "Tomorrow, go and exchange all these silver for banknotes. You guys can take half of it. As for the other half, you can keep it for me."
"No, no, no —" Dong Rende hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Young Master, I can't split it 50-50. This is all earned by your talent, and it is also your capital. I will only take the cost of production and some labor fees. It will be a total of 50 taels of silver. "
Lin Wanrong was accustomed to the mutual deception in the business world. Seeing that Dong Rende didn't forget his righteousness in the face of profits, he couldn't help but secretly nod and say, "Uncle Dong, this is not only my business, but also your credit. I've said it before, I'll prepare a generous dowry for Miss Qiaoqiao. Take these as a token of my appreciation. "
Dong Qiaoqiao's face reddened, but she looked at Lin Wanrong and said seriously, "Big Brother Lin, although we have a share in this money, you are the absolute leader. Without us, you can find a few people to do it. You just gave this opportunity to us. Although you are doing this for our own good, if we were to really accept this money, it would make our hearts uneasy and uneasy. "
Although Dong Qingshan was young, he was also very ambitious. He also echoed Dong Qiaoqiao's opinion and said, "That's right, Big Brother. We will only take what we deserve. We won't take anything more than that."
As matters stood, what else could she say? Lin Wanrong sighed inwardly. The father, son, and daughter of the Dong Clan were poor, but they were ambitious. If she continued to speak, she would have underestimated them. She nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I have a suggestion."
"What suggestion?" The three people of the Dong Family were already full of admiration for his wisdom, so they hurriedly asked.
Lin Wanrong nodded and said, "Since we are not willing to take these 5,000 taels of silver, we might as well use it as capital and do some other business. Let the money grow."
"Do business?" Dong Rende was silent for a while and said, "In Young Master's opinion, what kind of business should we do?" 5,000 taels of silver wasn't a lot, but it wasn't a small amount either. What kind of business should they do?
"Qiaoqiao, what kind of business do you think we should do?" Seeing that Dong Qiaoqiao seemed to be thinking about something, Lin Wanrong asked. This Dong Qiaoqiao was an extremely intelligent woman, so he couldn't underestimate her.
Dong Qiaoqiao thought for a while and said, "Clothing, food, housing, and transportation, we ordinary people are concerned about these four things. Clothing has already been monopolized by the Xiao Family and a few other big families. The competition is very fierce, and we don't have much capital, so we can't get involved. As for food, we can consider it. "
After she finished speaking, she nervously looked at Lin Wanrong, afraid that her words would arouse his disgust. After all, letting a scholar do business was a disgrace to the culture. Moreover, Lin Wanrong was quick-witted, so it wasn't clear whether he would approve of her idea. If he rejected it, Dong Qiaoqiao really wouldn't know what to do.
"Qiaoqiao thinks the same as me." Lin Wanrong laughed loudly. Dong Qiaoqiao secretly heaved a sigh of relief. She happily looked at Lin Wanrong and listened attentively to his words.
"Food is the most important thing to the people. Opening a restaurant depends on the amount of capital you have, and it's also very easy to enter the business. However — "Lin Wanrong changed his tone and said," If it's just a small restaurant, although the capital isn't much, the return on investment is too low. If we want to play, let's play it big. "
"Play it big?" The father and daughter of the Dong Family cried out in unison, not understanding what he meant.
"Yes, play it big. The restaurant we want to open must not only have a large space, a good location, excellent craftsmanship, good service, and a wonderful price. "Lin Wanrong gritted his teeth and said word by word.
Even the clever Dong Qiaoqiao couldn't understand the meaning of Lin Wanrong's words. She could understand the first few points, but how could she understand the last one?
Lin Wanrong looked at the puzzled expressions of the three people and said with a smile, "The first few points are understandable, right? Our restaurant must not only have a spacious space, but also the busiest prime location. I don't need to say anything about the craftsmanship and service. As for the price, hehe, we must distribute it reasonably. We must have low, medium, and high grades, and each grade must be available. We must let the customers who come to our restaurant enjoy the high grade and feel that we are different from others. As long as the grade is high, even if our price is a little higher, others will understand. After all, you get what you pay for. Everyone knows that you get what you pay for. Moreover, we can also take care of the medium and low-grade customers. "
His words stunned the father and daughter of the Dong Family for a long time. Only Dong Qiaoqiao bit her red lips and thought carefully about what Lin Wanrong had said. She seemed to have understood something.
"Moreover," Lin Wanrong said with a mysterious smile, "we will have occasional promotions for all grades of customers. I guarantee that they will come one after another."
"Promotions?" This time, not only the father and son of the Dong Family, but also Qiaoqiao was dumbfounded. She had never heard of this term before, so naturally, she didn't understand what it meant.
Lin Wanrong had to spend a long time explaining this new term to them. Finally, they understood it. Thinking about this promotion carefully, they felt that it was really tempting.
The three people of the Dong Family had a kind of blind trust in Lin Wanrong. When they heard him say this, they immediately thought that Lin Wanrong was an expert in this field. Their desire to open a restaurant became unprecedentedly strong.
This move of Lin Wanrong was extremely risky because he didn't have any experience in opening a restaurant. However, this brat had guts and was shameless. He dared to do anything. Moreover, these five thousand taels of silver were earned out of thin air. Even if he lost money, he wouldn't even blink an eye.
Everyone's thoughts became active. Dong Rende said, "After hearing Young Master Lin's words, I remember. A few days ago, I heard that the boss of the Delicious Pavilion by the Black Tortoise Lake is getting old and wants to sell his shop and return to his hometown in Suzhou to retire. "
"Oh?" Lin Wanrong was very interested. The Black Tortoise Lake was a good place. The scenery was good, and there were many people. As long as it was managed properly, the profit would not be small.
