Chapter 95: count money cost
Chapter 95 Counting money costs
It is already night, and the workshop has stopped working. The people working in the workshop are busy packing oil inside.
Beside the long corridor, there is a simple stove. Nangong Sheng is frying various dishes. While frying, he is talking about the precautions, such as the cooking temperature, there should be no water in the pot before adding oil, and the oil pan cannot be put out with water when it catches fire.
Nangong Anshan knocked on the door, and the person inside opened the door and saw her, and let her in.
She came to the small window, and saw Nangongxiu sitting in front of the oil lamp, registering everyone's name, oil needed, and weight.
Those who have been registered have to pay first, and then wait on the sidelines, waiting for the people working in the workshop to help them take out the oil.
Nangong Anshan saw that Nangong Xiu's complexion was a little bad, and his hands were shaking a little, and said: "Third brother, give it to me, I will write, you go to rest."
Nan Gongxiu has been sitting here since Shen Shi, and he couldn't hold on any longer. Seeing his sister came back, he could only let her go.
Nangong Anshan gave him the big meat bag in her hand, and said: "You are not in good health, eat first."
Nan Gongxiu asked: "What about you?"
"I've already eaten, and these are all specially bought for you."
Nangong Xiu didn't ask any more questions after hearing the words.
Other people in line saw a child starting to register, thinking that the child was relatively innocent, so someone spoke up.
Guest A said: "Girl, the dishes made with your oil are really delicious. I watched the cooking there for a long time just now, and the smell is really good. Any vegetarian dish is very appetizing. I also like it." I have tried several dishes, and the taste is really good, I wonder how the oil in this workshop is made?"
While registering, Nangong Anshan said, "It's made with an oil press."
Guest A saw that she really said it, thought she was being fooled, and asked, "What is an oil press?"
"It's a machine for making oil."
"How does the oil press work?"
Nangong Anshan raised her head and said with a smile, "Uncle, do you want to compete with His Royal Highness Prince Li for business?"
Guest A was shocked: "You...what did you say? This workshop is the workshop of His Royal Highness King Li?"
Nangong Anshan said: "To be precise, it was jointly opened by my family and His Highness Li Wang. You can also say it is the workshop of His Highness Li Wang. After all, every copper coin I earn has his share."
Guest A sneered and said: "So that's it, I don't have the idea of competing with His Royal Highness Prince Li, I'm just curious."
The rest of the people in the queue heard that the workshop here is actually related to His Royal Highness Li Wang, and they were a little cautious at first, and they didn't dare to make a mistake.
Nangong Anshan didn't say anything, and continued to register seriously.
Before leaving in the morning, she told the third brother that each person can only buy 30 catties of oil at most, and very few people bought 30 catties of soybean oil, 30 catties of peanut oil, 30 catties of sesame oil and soy sauce .
Others bought ten catties or five catties, and most of them only bought one catty. They think that if they eat delicious food in the future, they can come back again.
After three sticks of incense, the registration of today's guests has been completed, the money has been given, and everyone is waiting to get the oil.
Second brother was really exhausted after cooking for a whole day, so she packed all the money in the drawer and carried it on her back to take over the work of second brother and show everyone in person.
Many people who bought oil watched carefully in front of the stove, and had to try the taste of the dishes for themselves before they were willing to leave.
After another three sticks of incense, all the people received the oil and left one after another.
After the workshop quieted down, most of the people working in the workshop looked like frost-beaten eggplants.
Nangong Anshan knew that her business would be very good after her oil got out, but she didn't expect it to be so good, which made them tired until 3:00 pm.
Nangong Anshan solemnly said: "Everyone has worked hard. As long as you are still working at night, I will give you fifty cents a day's wages for that day."
You can earn an extra fifteen Wen in one night!
Everyone thought of this, and suddenly they didn't feel tired.
"Thank you, little boss."
Nangong Anshan nodded, said a few more words, and asked them all to go back.
They also left obediently.
Some of them were also very moved by the smell of the oil. You must know that they could smell the smell of cooking all afternoon and night, which made their stomachs growl for a long time.
But the price of those oils is too expensive. They can’t buy a catty with their daily wages. Most of them don’t even have a house, so they dare not spend so much money to try.
After Nangong Anshan packed up her things, she asked her family members to go back first, while she waited for the people from the evening shift to come, and then went home.
Back home, she and her family unloaded the carriage, then called all the family members to her house, and they counted the money together.
After a while, Nangong Sheng said: "I have twenty taels here."
Yang Ruolan said: "I have twelve here."
Nangong Xiudao: "I have eighteen taels here."
Nangong Anshan said: "I have twenty-two taels here."
Nangong Anshan said: "That's seventy taels, plus the thirty taels I sold in the city, I made a total of one hundred taels of silver today."
Nan Gongsheng said with surprise on his face: "This oil is too profitable. We can make so much money in one day."
Nan Gongxiu didn't expect the business of the oil press workshop to be so good, "If we can sell so much every day, then we won't have to worry about it in the future."
Nangong Anshan said: "Actually, we don't make so much money a day, and there are still a lot of costs."
"For example, the money for raw materials, the money for jars and barrels for storing oil, and the wages for villagers, etc."
"The raw materials are also very expensive, and the money spent basically accounts for nearly 50% of all income."
"The villagers worked overtime today, so I counted fifty cents a day for them. Forty villagers, their daily wages are two taels of silver."
"There are also ten people patrolling at night. Each person is fifty Wen, and ten people are worth five hundred Wen."
"Every day everyone's wages cost two and a half taels of silver."
"Of the thirty taels I earned, only twenty-seven taels were oil money, and the rest were seasoning money."
"That is to say, we earned a total of one hundred taels of silver today, minus the money for seasoning, it is ninety-seven taels of silver."
"Subtract half of the cost, and subtract the wages of each villager, then there are only forty-six taels of silver."
Nangong Yao didn't expect her income to drop so much all of a sudden, and said: "Sister, forty-six taels of silver is also a lot, Ah Yao is not greedy."
Nangong Anshan smiled helplessly, "Ah Yao, you forgot that 20% of the money here will be given to His Royal Highness Li Wang, that is to say, more than 9 taels of silver will be given out, so we only have More than thirty taels of silver."
