Chapter 080 Changes (Nine)
As soon as the April Mansion Examination List came out, Hu was so angry that he broke the tea bowl.
Because Ye Hongyuan was very lucky, he was the head of the case again.
She cursed and cursed Ye Hongyuan in the room and cursed that the people in the third room were struck by lightning, Ye Jinzhi once again had a happy dream.
Because Chen Yi also passed the provincial examination and passed the Tongsheng exam. He will be able to take the college examination in August this year. If he wins in one fell swoop, she will be the scholar's wife.
She forgot that the Chen family only hired her as a concubine. Even if Chen Yi passed the exam, the only one who benefited from her original wife would be her original wife, not a mere concubine.
...
Ye Jinxi has been a little busy lately.
She had to run to the sugar workshop in the eastern suburbs every few days.
On the day the county examination ended, Fang Xu said that he would come to pick her up, and the consequences came as promised in seven days. It happened that day that Ye Hongyuan was on vacation, so he went together.
His appearance of protecting his calf for fear of his sister being deceived makes Fang Xu unhappy again. He looks so fierce and evil. Is he so despicable that he bullies a little girl who is powerless? Joke, he is a dignified little Marquis Fang. If he really wants to get along with a little girl, he doesn't need to do it himself. Besides, that little girl is fierce and fierce, and there is a maid around him. What can happen?
The son of the Ye family has been reading for so many years, but his mind is really not very good.
Poor Marquis Fang has no sister, so he really can't really understand the feeling of Ye Hongyuan being an older brother. He is a girl over teenager with no strength to tie a chicken. When he goes out for a long trip, his family will definitely be worried.
When everyone is like him, he has martial arts and looks rich and luxurious in dressing, others are afraid of seeing him, so naturally they dare not provoke him.
He didn't like Ye Hongyuan, and Ye Hongyuan was not good at dealing with these noble people, so only Ye Jinxi talked to him.
"Who is managing the sugar workshop? Is it that Mr. Xie?"
"Who else can you do if it's not him?"
Fang Xu looked for granted.
Ye Jinxi thought for a while and asked, "Don't there be two young men in the Xie family?"
Fang Xu glanced at her, frowned slightly, and sighed.
"My cousin has been born prematurely and has been frail since childhood. She has been soaked in a medicine jar for more than half a year. She can't stand the wind or even tired."
I see.
More than an hour later, the carriage stopped.
The eastern suburbs are remote and secluded, so there is no need to worry about disturbing the people. It is best to build a workshop here.
The sugar workshop is very large, and Fang Xu led Ye Jinxi all the way, "How about it, this is all built according to your drawings."
"This big project will be completed in three months. I'm afraid it's a lot of workers?"
"Um."
Fang Xu nodded, "I don't know the specifics, I'm all arranged by Zhizhi. Look, he's talking to the manager there. If you have any questions, you can ask him personally."
A small attic was built on the west side of the workshop. It was not large in size and was specially designed for Xie Ying to rest when she came to inspect.
"All manual labor has been requested?"
"Um."
Fang Xu said: "He is making arrangements after the New Year, and he is so busy that he is not touching the ground every day, and finally the arrangements are made."
Ye Jinxi noticed a row of bungalows in the northwest, pointed to the other side and asked, "Is this for workers to live in?"
Fang Xu nodded, "Those workers are ordinary people, far away from home, so it is more convenient to live here."
As the few people said, they came to the small attic where Xie Ying lived.
The last manager left. Xie Yingxu was tired of sitting inside, so he walked out. He stood in the corridor wearing a silver-gray cloak, reached out and rubbed his eyebrows, his face as beautiful as jade. He heard the footsteps and looked over.
Xie Ying's appearance looks like his mother, her eyebrows are like ink paintings and her eyes are like dots of paint, and her eyes are narrow and long. If she is born on a woman's face, she will be three-slightly charming. When she smiles in her eyes, she looks like she is seductive. This is exactly the case. Xie Ying doesn't like to laugh very much, and her expressionless appearance looks both noble and lonely. Before she can sink into his peerless light, she is persuaded to retreat by the coldness and dare not get close to her.
At this time, he looked over with his lips slightly. The bottom was because of fatigue, less coldness as usual, and his eyebrows and eyes were beautiful and soft. He stood there to form a landscape, like jade and a romantic side hat.
Ye Jinxi couldn't help but be stunned.
She had seen Xie Ying twice. Last Mid-Autumn Festival, she was busy saving Ye Jinhong. She glanced at me and realized that although this young man was not as handsome as a real person, she was too cold. In the noisy place in the depths, she did not have any human spirit, and she looked like a banished immortal who had fallen into the world. She was incompatible with this world.
See you in Xie’s house two months later.
In the midst of all the noise, he still didn't see any smile on his face, as if he was born to be unable to laugh, handsome and lofty.
Only this time, it looks a little more vivid.
If one was a god who was standing in the clouds before, now he was a precious and beautiful boy who had left his fairy energy and descended to the world and stood under the low eaves. Everything around him was dimly eclipsed by him, and he was the only one who left the world and was independent.
This is definitely the male protagonist of a romance novel.
Ye Jinxi tsk in his heart and decided to include Xie Ying's image in his own book.
Her eyes were too obvious, and it was difficult for Xie Ying to ignore it.
Fang Xu had already walked over, greeted him, and then said to the brother and sister behind him: "Don't stand there, come in."
Ye Jinxi and Ye Hongyuan walked in.
Fang Xu pulled out a square box the size of a palm from behind the desk, with black carvings. He handed the box to Ye Jinxi, "Here."
Ye Jinxi took it in confusion and opened it and saw that it was a contract for dividends from the sugar workshop.
She actually accounts for 40%!
She stared at her eyes wide, in disbelief, "This..."
Fang Xu automatically translated Xie Ying's expression, "If this sugar workshop is supervised in the name of the government, it will be equivalent to the court, and it will have nothing to do with you anymore. It can only be used as a private property of the Xie family, but after all, this white sugar was invented by you, and the Xie family cannot get the credit. As for the last time in the Xie family, my ancestors said to give you 20% of it, it is only for the first half of the year. Because this land and the construction of the workshop require money."
Ye Jinxi understood.
Just building this workshop and the land, it is probably more than tens of thousands of silver. Judging from this scale, the daily output she estimated at the beginning would probably double. The dividend was 20% of the month, at least 1,200 taels per month, and 7,020 taels per year.
Although this is just a conservative estimate, it cannot account for half of the cost of building this workshop.
So the Xie family said that the cost was equal to her, but in fact, it still cost at least a few thousand taels more. She took a big advantage.
As for the 46% share, the 20% that the Xie family accounts for, in addition to all the costs, there are also high commercial taxes that need to be paid every year. Moreover, managing such a large workshop requires energy. After all, if the Ye family owns the workshop, even if there is such a cost, it cannot be properly managed. It is even more impossible to prevent certain accidents, such as work-related injuries, such as poaching people, suppressing, etc.
Only the Xie family can cover everything.
In short, Ye Jinxi makes a fortune.
Three months later, the extra 20% dividends given to her every month are almost equivalent to the money given to her for free.
This is a pie that falls from the sky.
Ye Jinxi was so dizzy that she was smashed by this huge pie. "Actually, there is no need to give me so much, 20% is enough..."
"This is what our ancestors ordered."
After Fang Xu said this, he spat in his heart. The ancestor was not so leisurely. If Xie Ying hadn't said the stupid words in his ancestors, he would have been too lazy to care about these messy matters.
The little brat looks careless and very careful.
Of course, Ye Jinxi didn't know the twists and turns, and if there was money, it would be useless to make money. Since they said that, she would certainly be disrespectful. So she was very pleased and signed her name on the contract.
Fang Xu glanced at him and said in surprise: "The handwriting is well written, who taught me?"
"My mother."
As soon as Ye Jinxi finished speaking, he saw a white hand reaching over, his fingers as jade as he held a private seal and gently pressed it next to her name. Both contracts were stamped with private seals, and then folded the one on his face and put it in his sleeve.
"The workshop is newly built, and the workers need to be familiar with it. There will be some bumps and bumps in the first month, and you need to supervise and teach it yourself." He paused at this point, "If it is inconvenient to go back and forth, you can temporarily stay in Xie Mansion."
Ye Jinxi was stunned.
Ye Hongyuan, who had not made any noise, immediately protected his sister behind him and met Xie Ying's gaze. He said with neither humility nor arrogantly: "Young master's kindness, my little sister is grateful, but it is inconvenient to bother the mansion, and it is also a big problem to disturb the mansion."
He has a pretty face and gentle face, never argues with others, but is still calm at this time, but his eyes are particularly persistent.
Fang Xu was stunned.
Suddenly, this boy who made him unhappy every time his words and actions were actually just protecting his own sister, and he was willing to fight against the powerful with his thin body.
His cousin looked like he was always looking like he was not allowed to enter. There were really few people who dared to look at him.
This kid looks like he can't take his shoulders and can't lift his hands, but he has a bit of character.
Chapter completed!
