Chapter 288 Everything has meaning and meaning

The guests of Wuji Restaurant saw each other off, and there was almost no room in the hall. As for the second floor private room, maybe they were about to enter school, most of them were young masters and young masters. A group of people came together, drinking, eating meat and talking to girls, which was very free and comfortable.

However, one of the many elegant rooms seemed very quiet. Compared with the noisy sounds of the next few rooms, it seemed that there was no one inside, but the door was closed, and the waiter never brought the guests to that room. When a curious person asked, he said that someone was talking and discussing things inside.

The quiet room in the private room is so silenceful, and there are noisy outside and headaches. Lan Xin stood behind Yao Si. Although she didn't understand very well, she understood what Lin Dao said just now. This is because she thought the conditions given by the girl were not good enough.

In fact, when Lan Xin just heard Yao Si say that he would give him an extra 100 taels a month, he was so shocked that he almost called out. One hundred taels. What is this number? I am not sure if I can earn 100 taels when I open the shop. Moreover, all costs and expenses have to be eliminated. In this way, I have to earn at least two or three hundred taels a month to ensure the expenses of the family.

But this is not a small amount. The girl said just now. It turned out that the silk shop only earns about 100 taels per month. How should the two or three hundred taels be done? Although she didn't know what the girl was doing in this way, she wouldn't let her own people suffer any loss.

Lan Xin carefully observed Lin Dao's expression, but to her disappointment, the latter just smiled and sipped tea without too many expressions on her face.

Yao Si obviously knew Lin Dao would answer like this, and he laughed softly and said, "Butler Lin, do you know why I just asked you about the daily income of Wu Ji Restaurant? First, I am explaining to Butler Lin that people should not behave like this; second, I also want to settle the score with Butler Lin.

You just said that if you rent that shop to someone else, you can earn more than 600 taels per month. This is really a considerable amount. The one hundred taels I paid is really not worth mentioning."

Lin Dao raised his eyebrows. For some reason, he felt that Yao Si had something to say below, and it felt like the other party was joking. However, from Yao Si's expression and tone, he did not hear the meaning of joking.

Sure enough, before he could let go of his mind, Yao Si continued, "But, I said, before coming, I had a rough understanding of the merchants and shops on Baihua Street. The maximum amount of items in a day was about fifty taels, but this was not the case every day. Due to the restrictions of the trading industry, most of the street's business and fewer buyers.

Let me give you a simple example. Today I went to buy a set of four treasures of study. I won’t buy them again for at least two or three months. Of course, there are many rich people who like to buy them and pile them up, but that is also a minority after all.

The shops on Baihua Street are mostly aimed at literary scholars, and women use very few things. This is also a bad thing. Women like to spend more money and buy more things that are useless. Some gadgets are slightly different. They all think that they will buy them naturally. Even if they are piled up at home, it doesn’t matter. They can often take them out and play with them.

So I said that if Butler Lin wants to turn Baihua Street into the same as this Sajin Street, it is a bit difficult. The reason why Wuji Restaurant can earn 100 taels a day is not only because of the sign of "Wuji", but also because this street has everything and all kinds of people, so Sajin Street has a greater income than other streets around, and this large number is even exponential. Butler Lin, I'm right."

Yao Si looked at Lin Dao with a smile, with a hint of undetectable cunning in his eyes: "I know that Butler Lin wants to turn Baihua Street into the second Sajin Street. You may have implemented it for a long time, but you have found that Baihua Street's income is not even one-third of Sajin Street. Why? I believe Butler Lin already knows the reason.

So you are planning to change, but you are not following the current path, because the original method has been overturned by you. It is precisely because of this that Mr. Lin should know that it is impossible to earn thousands of taels a month in Baihua Street. You can get at most 100 to 120 taels a month, and this is not a fixed number."

Lin Dao looked at Yao Si in shock. He had never said anything to anyone before, and he also believed that he kept it very confidential. He really wanted to turn Baihua Street into the second Sajin Street, but that was an idea that he had only recently.

Last year, he was committed to turning Baihua Street into a street that connects each other, but later he found that there was a big problem, which was what Yao Si said, the limitations of layout. Although many things were concentrated, there were fewer other things. Moreover, these concentrated shops were mostly popular among literati and poets, such as calligraphy and paintings. There were few people buying and many people watching. This is why Baihua Street is very lively but its income was not high.

After realizing this problem, Lin Dao also tried to add some things, such as some rouge and water bowl shops, gold and silver jewelry, children's toys, or various crafts, but this did not solve the problem.

The outside world's definition of Baihua Street has been deeply rooted in his heart, which is a place where literati and poets often go to visit; and later shops were only a few and did not play much role. Of course, there is another important point, in Baihua Street, the Wu family's shops only account for one-third, and he needs to reconcile the remaining half, so it is not easy to display.

Yao Si was right. He did make a mistake last year and worked hard for a year. When he was planning the year-end, he realized what the problem was. Although the profits of the whole street were more than in previous years, the number did not satisfy him, so this year he planned to add some more based on the original.

Speaking of this, he also understood that what Yao Si wanted to express was nothing more than that, judging from the current situation of Baihua Street, it would be difficult to change it within at least one year. Therefore, during this year, he had a fixed monthly fee of 104 taels, which was very cost-effective. There were neither variables nor needed to give the "Wu Ji". You should know that other businesses wanted to use the "Wu Ji" sign, which was also risky for him. After all, if something happened to the "Wu Ji", the Wu family was the first to take the blame.

With such comparison, such cooperation is very cost-effective for him, but he understands that in this way, Yao Si's shop must earn at least 200 taels a day to have a balance in excluding rent and costs. Even the balance is very small. Why do you have to make such a calculation?

Lin Dao stared at Yao Si in confusion. At this time, he had accepted the conditions proposed by Yao Si and made preparations to rent the shop to Yao Si. He even made some regressions. He was not a robber. He had a rent of more than 100 taels. There was no such expensive shop in the entire Xiye Kingdom. Moreover, he wanted to sell Yao Si's favors. The reason why he heard so much and said so much before was not only a little resistant to Yao Si's proposal to break his Wu family's business rules, but more because he wanted to know what Yao Si thought.

But at this point, he still couldn't figure out how Yao Si calculated the price. He was willing to pay more than 100 taels of rent. Where did she get the confidence? What's more, without borrowing the "Wu Ji" sign, how could she play the sign in a short time and gain the trust of others?
