Soon, they reached the top floor. Yongqi sat down and ordered a few dishes.
Then, he began to think about making money.
"Xiao De Zi, call the shopkeeper over and let him tell me about the recent situation of the restaurant.”
"Scum!"
Soon, a middle-aged man in his forties with a long beard came over.
"I, Zhang Li, pay my respects to King Rong." Zhang Li bowed.
Zhang Li was a Han Chinese, but he had always been working for the Manchu people. In his eyes, whether it was the Qing Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty, he only wanted to make a living. It was nothing to work for the Manchu people. Otherwise, if he starved to death, the Ming Dynasty would not care.
"Get up and tell me about the situation of these three restaurants.”
"Yes."
"Your Highness, the monthly revenue of the Fragrance Brothel is 1500 taels. Excluding the labor and materials costs, the profit is about 300 taels. The other two brothels have a total revenue of 2000 taels.”Zhang Li honestly reported the restaurant's revenue.
"Yes." Yong Qi was eating Peking Duck and nodding her head as she listened to Zhang Li's report.
"What about the restaurant expansion plan? Did he? This king wants to earn more money."
He only earned 700 taels of silver every month, and he had to send 200 taels of silver to his cheap mother every month. The three restaurants only earned 500 taels of silver. It was too little. He should open a few more. The location here was excellent, but the income was so little. Yongqi was not satisfied.
"Prince Rong, you might not know this, but the competition for business in the capital city is really great. There is no better location to open a new restaurant for the time being.”Zhang Li touched his forehead. It would take him a long time to deal with King Rong.
"Okay, you can leave first."
"Yes, sir!"
Yongqi looked around while eating.
The location was not bad, but the restaurant's decoration was not special at all. The dishes were also average, so naturally, the income was also average.
Yongqi had to use modern people's thinking to transform the restaurant. This Zhang Li was too conservative and could not make a lot of money. He had to change people.
Yongqi opened the character exchange page.。
To attract business talents.
The exchange points for business people were much lower than those for technology people.
"Shen Wansan, 5000 points, Heshen, 3000 points, Wu Bingjian, 2000 points."
The top quality ones were all very expensive.
Yongqi pulled it to the bottom. He estimated that Shen Wansan and Heshen could only be used after he ascended the throne. It was better to be more practical now.
Zhou Ying, 100 points.
Eh, a woman?
Yongqi saw the unfamiliar name and clicked on the detailed introduction.
Zhou Ying: In the late Qing Dynasty, she entered the Wu family of Anwu Fort in Jingyang and married Wu Pin, the young master of the Wu family. Later, her husband Wu Pin and her father-in-law died for some reason, and the Wu family gradually declined. Zhou Ying resolutely decided to replace the deceased Wu father and son to revive the Wu family's east courtyard. The family business fell on her shoulders alone.
Zhou Ying employed capable people and was resourceful and decisive. Under her efforts, the Wu family's eastern courtyard picked up the salt merchant business again. The shops spread all over the country and another seven general offices were set up in the country. Not only that, but Zhou Ying also expanded her business to silk, cotton, cotton cloth, medicinal herbs, tea leaves, and so on.
In terms of integrating resources, she signed contracts with cotton farmers in advance and ordered raw silk in advance from mulberry gardens in the south to ensure sufficient supply and stable purchase prices. In terms of the system reform, Zhou Ying let her shopkeepers and workers participate in the shares, expand the funds, and implement a " Yang salary, Yin salary," and the family members of the workers could also work in the Wu family.
She was a successful businessman.
Zhou Ying's lifetime investment in credibility helped her build a business empire and eventually became the richest woman in Shaanxi at the end of the Qing Dynasty!
[Mastered skill: Business.]
[Special skill: A man of his word.]
After reading her introduction, Yongqi could not help but admire this extraordinary woman.
As a merchant and the adopted daughter of Cixi, she repeatedly lent a helping hand when the country was in danger.
"Exchange for Zhou Ying!" Yongqi did not hesitate and exchanged for it decisively.
It was most suitable for Qing Dynasty people to do business in the Qing Dynasty.
"Exchange successful. As Zhou Ying's ancestor is in the capital, she will report to the host in the afternoon!”the system reminded.
“OK! OK! Got it."
..............
After dinner, Yongqi began to inspect her properties in the capital.
In addition to restaurants, Yongqi also had other miscellaneous businesses. In his own memory, he did not know where many of them were. It was Xiao Dezi who led the way with a steward in the residence.
A shop selling rice, a shop selling clothes…
Damn, it was all a low-profit industry. It was possible to earn a little money, but not a lot of money.
By the time Yongqi finished reading half of it, it was already afternoon. At around 3 p. m., Zhou Ying came to report.
