Chapter 234 Family Business
Wang Jinyi saw that her mother had misunderstood, so she smiled and shook her head and said:
"Mother, the dividend of seven thousand taels is all true, but not every month. Some projects are paid monthly, some are paid once every three months, and there are also projects that are paid every six months. It's just a coincidence that I got seven thousand taels this time.
Mother, after the end of this month, my account will be divided into two parts. The inner courtyard needlework room and Zhen workshop will be separated and handed over to you! From now on, it will be the family property, and Jin'er doesn't want to worry about it anymore!"
When her mother heard this, she wanted to refuse, but Wang Jinyi explained:
"Don't worry about your daughter, mother. I have ways to make money. If there are any projects at home that cost money, mother, just spend it!"
The mother patted her daughter's hand and advised:
"Logically speaking, you want to earn money for mother and our second wife, and mother would be happy!
But think about it, if your brothers get the property without working hard, it will make them lose the will to work hard. The most frightening thing for a man is to be spineless and unmotivated. You don’t have to like fame, but you must be talented. You don’t have to like the world, but you must be able to support yourself. You can also travel around the world like your third uncle, but you must be able to support your hobbies.
I want to say, you can't use up all their efforts, what are they doing? !
The property is yours. It's not that I'm partial to my daughter. It's yours and no one will give it to you. You can take it with you when you get married. If you don't get married, the second wife can only take half of it. It's considered as the public property of the second wife. There is still a share for you! It's not that I'm partial to my daughter, it's because this is the rule. Since it is a rule, no one can break it! Jin'er, do you understand? ! "
Wang Jinyi was deeply grateful for her mother's love and admired this family management theory. Yes! You have done everything, what else can the men in the family do? Are you going to make them all useless? !
I’m afraid the Wang family rules won’t allow it!
It seems that I am a bit short-sighted. I need to make money and let my family spend it, but I need to think clearly about where to spend it!
Wang Jinyi was really convinced by her mother this time. She held her mother's hand and said:
"Mother, Jin'er understands. It's Jin'er who has the wrong idea. It's Jin'er who has no foresight!
Mother, please take over the accounting job so that Jin'er can have some relief and have a leisurely life..."
Of course the mother agreed readily, and then took Wang Jinyi to her daughter's study, wanting to check her daughter's homework over the past six years.
When I entered Wang Jinyi's study again 6 years later, it was very different from before.
The empty study room that originally had only a desk is now full.
The conch-shaped bookcase designed by Wang Jinyi was not seen, and the wide desk was still used, but it was divided into two.
Half of the paper and study materials used for practicing calligraphy were still placed on the right side of the desk, making it look a bit crowded.
On the other side of the wall, there was a small bookcase-like thing, divided into two layers, with account books standing on it. I don’t know why my daughter placed all the account books upright instead of stacking them flat?!
My mother took out an account book and found that the cover was strange. It seemed not to be made of paper, but a bit like wood chips but elastic. My mother pointed at the account book and asked:
"Jin'er, what is this?"
Wang Jinyi didn't know what her mother's question was about, so she replied:
"Mother, these are the accounts from the needlework room! I was just about to hand these accounts over to you."
As he spoke, he took down all the account books from the small shelf, and stacked the account books of the needlework room and Zhen's workshop one by one in front of his mother according to the categories in the account books.
Mother opened the account book, pointed to the hard cover on the first page and asked:
"Jin'er, what is this?"
This time Wang Jinyi understood that her mother was curious about the hard cover of the account book.
At that time, Wang Jinyi wanted to save space for easy access, so he stood all the account books up and placed them in a file rack. He asked a woodworking workshop to make a file rack, and then gave it to the clan as a sample for processing. The response to the market was mediocre, but Wang Jinyi was able to use the two-layer file rack with ease.
But the account book placed upright could not stand without support. Wang Jinyi remembered that the folders in his previous life were all hard-covered, and there was no paper here, so he had to use thin wood or bamboo strips to make the cover. He was afraid of wearing out the account pages inside, so he brushed animal glue on the wooden cover. In this way, the account book with hard cover was born!
Wang Jinyi briefly explained the wooden account book cover to his mother, and his mother seemed to understand. Wang Jinyi arranged his mother to sit on the big chair in the main seat. Mo Yu quickly brought a brocade stool for the young lady. The mother glanced at the clever girl.
Wang Jin knew that his mother had just returned and was not familiar with the people under his command, so he introduced them specifically:
"Mother, this is the person who takes care of pens and ink in my study. Her name is Moyu. She can read and write things. She is also smart. You can tell her if you have anything to do."
Mo Yu greeted the lady again, and when she nodded, he began to speak according to the little notebook:
"Miss, the eldest lady of the first house sent someone to say two things. The first is to ask you to go over and talk to her about the storybook. She wants to know how you came up with such a scary story."
Wang Jinyi knew that Yue'er asked this question after reading several ghost stories that he had written based on Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio.
"The eldest lady wants to ask if you have any new book written recently, she wants to read it.
She also told me one thing, asking if I wanted a purse she embroidered. The girl said her daughter embroidered purses very well, and asked what kind of purse you wanted?"
Wang Jinyi laughed when she heard this. She had a needlework room and a embroidery studio under her. When it came to making these little things, Wang Yueyi definitely couldn't beat a professional embroiderer.
But Yue Er was eager to send someone to ask, this was her intention, it had nothing to do with whether the item was exquisite or not, so she nodded and said:
"I understand. If I'm not here next time and someone from the first room comes, tell the eldest lady to come over and play when she has time. I miss her!
Later, pick out two sets of my manuscripts with stories that you think are interesting and send them to her to help her relieve her boredom!
As for the purse, I told her I didn’t like flowers and told her to embroider whatever she wanted. I liked whatever she gave me.”
"Any thing else?"
Mother listened as she flipped through the account book. Mo Yu took the small book and said:
"Miss, there are two letters for you in the front yard."
Before Wang Jinyi could reach out, her mother had already taken all the letters and opened them. The first letter was a reply from Fuling to the young lady, saying that the second phase of construction of Ku Shui Mountain would be completed soon, and asked if she could come back ten days later.
The second letter didn't say who it was from, nor did it include any salutation. It just started with a bunch of practical numbers. After some calculations, I found out it was an expense report. At the bottom it said that the store decoration was completed and was ready to open.
The mother looked at her daughter and asked:
"Have you started a new business?"
"No, I don't want to do other business because it's too troublesome. This is another Tai Sheng Rice Shop."
"Jin'er, the original Tai Sheng Rice Shop is no longer in business?!"
