"workshop…"

Ji Wan then remembered that Lu Feili was still there, and her face looked slightly embarrassed.

Lu Feili looked at her with a smile, waiting for her to answer.

"Yes, Awan, I think your workshop is quite big. My brother brought back the sausage two years ago. It was delicious. You have to make more this year. I can wait to buy it for you."

Lu Feiyan held her arm and her eyes smiled into a line.

Ji Wan had already given the recipe for sausage to Lu Feili, but he did not use it in the military camp. Last year, he still bought sausage in her workshop.

"I'll give you the recipe for sausage. Whenever you want to eat it, let your chef make it."

"real?"

Lu Feiyan's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Of course it's true. When did I cheat you?" Ji Wan blinked, "But you have to let your chef keep it a secret for me and not disclose it to outsiders. I still have to do business."

"Don't worry, it's absolutely confidential."

Lu Feiyan lined up his chest and promised, "Hey, you haven't told me yet, how many sausages you will make this year."

"There are pigs in the ten villages outside the city, and the specific number in the village has not been counted. There should be about two or three thousand heads, which can make tens of thousands of kilograms of sausages, and more bacon. Sales..." Ji Wan started to make a calculation again, "The prices in the capital are high and the costs are also high. The sausages have to be sold for 60 cents per kilogram and 50 cents a kilogram of bacon. In the calculation, the sausages can be sold for about 5,000 taels and about 10,000 taels of bacon."

"Will that add up to 15,000?"

Lu Feiyan looked at the records she made in the account book before, "Ten thousand plus three thousand plus ten thousand plus ten thousand is thirty-three thousand."

"It can't be calculated like this." Ji Wan smiled and said, "The cost has to be reduced. Look, my hot pot restaurant costs several thousand taels alone, and the snack shop and workshop are almost ten thousand taels. The ingredients and labor costs are also deducted. How much do you have to calculate, do you have to do it?"

"ah?"

Lu Feiyan was a little confused, "You just thought it was pure profit."

Ji Wan smiled, "This is the first year, and the cost is higher. Next year, only the ingredients and labor will be deducted. But if the years go by, all buildings will need to be renovated, which will be counted as the cost. If these are subtracted, the average annual income will be 20,000 to 30,000 yuan."

"Don't plan to open a branch?"

Lu Feili asked, "Yesterday, Xiaojiu wrote to you that she opened a hot pot branch in Yancheng, which is more than twice the size of the store in Dengxian."

Ji Wan was stunned, "You are here today to tell me this?"

Lu Feili glanced at her, "That's all."

Lu Feiyan's eyes turned around the faces of the two of them, showing a knowing smile, but said, "The third brother said he was with me. It turned out that they were all excuses. It was obviously just to come to see Awan."

Ji Wan coughed twice uncomfortable.

"Don't talk nonsense."

This little girl was a little straightforward.

"I don't talk nonsense." Lu Feiyan was the most straightforward and did not take those rules and etiquette seriously in private. "The emperor ordered the third brother to lead his troops to guard the sewing machine factory in the western suburbs. He was very busy going out early and came back late every day. Today, he finally had free time and didn't go out for social activities. He said he was worried about my safety and wanted to escort me over. I went to Zhou Mansion to find you before, but he was not so attentive, and he just came to see you."

Ji Wan's face was even more embarrassing.

Lu Feili glanced at her slightly red face and said, "Two days ago, my mother told me that she planned to decide your marriage before the end of the year, and asked me to help me see among the children of aristocratic families whether there are any unmarried children of the right age who are of the same character."

This time, Lu Feiyan made a big blush and said angrily: "Third Brother, you know how to joke with me."

"I'm telling the truth."

"Impossible. My mother said she would stay with me for two more years. Besides, you haven't married Awan yet, so I can't overstep it."

"I'll make up the marriage for you first, and it's the same if I get married in two years."

Lu Feiyan stared at him.

Lu Feili smiled and said, "It's useless to glare at me, this is what grandmother means."

Lu Feiyan suddenly felt angry.

Ji Wan smiled and comforted: "Isn't it still two years left, so don't worry."

"Yes." Lu Feiyan had a lively temperament and soon became happy, "Let's stop talking about this, Awan, after the business of this hot pot restaurant stabilizes, are you going to open a branch?"

"Let's talk about it later." Ji Wan shook her head, "After the sewing machine factory is built, I have to go over to inspect from time to time. I probably don't have that much energy to open a branch. Let's talk about it later if I have time. However, it's sausage and sauce-flavored duck. If the business is good, I plan to expand the scale next year."

The three hot pot restaurants in Yancheng, after deducting various costs and dividends from Qiji, the annual net profit should not be less than 10,000 taels. The sausage and sauce-flavored duck have long been circulating in the north, and will increase production this year, and the profit should also be more than 10,000.

In other words, she will earn 40,000 to 50,000 taels every year from now on.

Ji Wan heard from her mother that aristocratic families like the Zhou family had two taels of silver per month, eight taels of first-class maids around her, and twenty taels of experienced old nanny. In addition, there were also various managers, second-class maids, third-class maids, and ladies, ladies, girls and young men, all of which were added up to more than one thousand taels.

There are also the managers of the shop managers of the shops and farms, daily expenses, etc.

It costs thousands of taels a month.

The Zhou Mansion is actually quite small in population. When there was no separation in the past, the expenses were even greater. In contrast, the monthly inputs were also quite large.

Ji Wan earned a lot of money in a year, and it seems to be a lot of money in aristocratic families. It is not enough for the rest of the year.

But she was still very satisfied.

After all, it was her own income, not the entire family.

She is currently a rich woman.

Ji Wan told her mother the estimated income of all her stores, and then said, "Mom, you don't have to dowry me any shops. My own shops are enough."

"A silly child, the amount of dowry given by the parents' family to marry a daughter is a symbol of the degree to which she is valued at her family. When she gets married, she will let the other party know that you have a family to rely on. What you earn is different from what I give you."

Ji Wan thought about it and found that in ancient times there were rigid regulations on dowry and betrothal gifts, and the dowry was twice as high as the betrothal gifts. Therefore, many people had to borrow money to marry their daughters.

She thought of her former neighbor Wang family, whom Wang Dashan married Chen and gave him twenty taels of betrothal money. The Chen family was so poor that she would definitely not be able to pay much dowry. But Chen's status in the Wang family was unquestionable. From this point of view, this man's attitude towards his wife was very critical.

With Lu Feili's attitude towards her, he would not care about how much she was in her dowry.
