Chapter 293 (1/2)

Gu Jiu dials abacus, Liu Zhao returns to the house, the east courtyard this month's expense soars.

Half a month later, the money allocated to the east courtyard by Gongzhong has been used up.

The private property that Liu Zhao bought privately was nothing more than two Zhuangzi and several shops, with limited income in one year.

She took the abacus and went over and over the accounts.

Anyway, at the end of the day, she would have to pay her dowry and silver for her family, otherwise she couldn't make it.

No wonder Xiao qin'er thinks of ways to hold money every day. It is estimated that Liu Yi's expenses are too large for her to bear.

At the end of the account, it really can't go on. Gu Jiu simply throws the abacus on the side, which is a little stuffy.

What's the matter with these grandchildren? They earn so much money, but they spend more than anyone else.

Before marriage, the public should be responsible for the expenses, and the princes and concubines should supplement them from time to time.

After getting married, all the expenses are in accordance with the rules, and there is no more than one or two silver coins.

What about the missing part? Princes and concubines do not give subsidies, they are all wives with dowry subsidies.

What a break in the rules.

Xiaocui came back from the account room and took some bills.

”Madam, the young master has newly purchased a set of four treasures of the study, which is worth 300 Liang. This is the receipt. The cashier asked the maidservant to ask his wife, is this 300 Liang to be supplied to the cashier's room now, or will it be deducted directly from the expenses of the east courtyard next month? ”

Gu jiunaomenzi pain, took the receipt quickly swept the eye.

Hui ink, Xuan paper, Lake brush and Duan inkstone are all luxuries in the four treasures of the study. Three hundred taels is not expensive.

Just, want her to pay for these three hundred Liang, Gu Jiu heart has ten thousand Grass Mud Horse gallop.

According to Liu Zhao's rate of spending money, don't say 2000 Liang a month, even if there are 10000 Liang, it is not enough.

She told Xiaocui, ”give this receipt to the young master, and tell him that the money in the east courtyard has been used up this month. Ask him to make up for the three hundred Liang

Xiaocui was a little afraid, ”madam, do you really want to say that?”

Gu nine eyes a stare, ”go, according to what I said to do, a word is not allowed to change.”

Xiaocui can only take orders to go.

After Xiaocui left, Qingmei said, ”Xiaocui is afraid of the childe. It's difficult for her to give her this job.”

Gu Jiu picked up the abacus again and accepted his fate.

”You can't be afraid forever. I have to use just a few of you around me. If I'm afraid I don't do anything, I can only promote someone else. ”

Green plum busy said: ”maid also just casually say a, madam don't care.”

Gu Jiu shakes his head, ”I don't care, but silver and I care.”

Gu Jiu has little spare money on hand.

On the northwest side, Deng Cunli has received 200000 military orders for ready-made wool garments.

Relying on Peiyun's face, marquis Lu approved 30% of the deposit to the workshop, but not enough.

She and Peiyun, one person out of seven thousand Liang, one person out of five thousand Liang silver, a total of 12000 Liang to send to the workshop.

Because she occupies 60% of the workshop's shares, so the money is also her big head, Peiyun's small head.

Can't let Peiyun take 40% shares, but give the same money. That's not what business does.

After seven thousand Liang, Gu Jiu's dowry silver left only about two thousand Liang.

Business is still going on for more than two hundred months. In those two months of the Chinese new year, her income was the highest, and her bonus was more than 100 Liang.

The pharmacy business, relying on the four prescriptions she gave, finally opened up the situation. In the Beijing medical market, at least it is a firm foothold.

Now there is also a slight surplus every month.

However, the pharmacy needs to store a large number of medicinal materials, Gu Jiu can not extract profits from the pharmacy, cutting off the cash flow of the pharmacy.

As for her dowry, Chuang Tzu and her shop will not turn in the proceeds until the end of the year.

Gu Jiu calculated with an abacus. Two Chuang Tzu, plus several shops, could save her six or seven thousand taels of cash silver and tens of thousands of catties of grain in a year.

Shops also need cash turnover, but also need to press goods. Therefore, it is impossible to hand in all the proceeds. It's a good harvest if we can pay six or seven thousand taels.

Her dowry shops are all businesses of ordinary people. It's not a profiteering industry. The benefits are naturally limited.

So she had only two thousand taels of spare money in her hand.

She doubted that the money would last until the end of the year.

Her business stall is so big that she needs money everywhere. But the money is very useless.

What is more irritated is that there is a big money burning household in the family.

Xiaocui came back from the document garden. ”I told my wife that he had given all his money to his wife and asked her to take 300 Liang out.”

Bang!

Gu Jiu patted the table and got angry.

”It's shameless.”

”Don't be angry, madam.” Green plum hastily advised, for fear of Gu Jiu's irascibility, the childe's imperial edict was beaten.Gu Jiu picked up the account book and said, ”go, follow me to see you in the document court. I'll have to settle with him today

Books, abacus, bring them all. With the sandalwood casket from Qian Fu's hand in the first month, they all held it in their hands, and they killed to the document garden.

Several servant girls of Shiqin suddenly bluff at Gu Jiu's poor performance.

Gu nine eyes a stare, do not dare to enter the study to inform the childe.

Can only pray in the heart: childe, you ask for more happiness.

Gongzizhao was painting with his newly bought four treasures of the study.

Hearing the news, he looked up and said, ”you sit down first, I'll moisten my brush first.”

”There's no time to sit here and have fun.” Gu Jiu came forward and directly slapped the account book on the desk. ”You can see for yourself. This is the expenditure of our east courtyard this year.”

Liu Zhao frown, look at the account book, and look at Gu Jiu, ”what kind of evil fire are you making?”

Gu Jiu looked at him with a smile, ”it's not that I'm angry, it's silver that's bothering me. As for me, I can only trouble you. ”

Liu Zhao looks suspicious, picked up the account book to look at a few pages.

I don't know if I don't see it. Only when I look at it, I can see that the east courtyard spends so much money every month.

Originally, the account room allocated 2000 liang of silver to the east hospital every month, so don't be extravagant and wasteful, and don't buy and buy all day long. It's basically enough.

However, at the beginning of the year, the cutting cost was cut by 30% at once, and it was reduced by 600 taels in a month.

The cost of 1400 Liang a month is still a little surplus when Gu Jiu is alone.

As soon as Liu Zhao came back, let alone the rest, it was only half a month. 1400 taels had been used up, and the remaining half month would have to be reversed.

Gu Jiu said: ”there are still several months to go before the end of the year, and the money in my hand can't support the end of the year. Especially you, only a few days back, have spent thousands of Liang silver, and all of them are from the east courtyard. Why don't you pay for your errands? ”

Liu Zhaowei frown, ”at the beginning of the year, I let money rich give you money, all used up?”

Gu Jiu put the sandalwood box on the table, ”it's all in it, and you haven't moved a cent.”

Liu Zhao said unhappily, ”the money is for you to use. Why not use it? ”

”I think the money from the public is enough to support the daily expenses. As a result, I underestimated your ability to spend money. ”

Liu Zhao opened the sandalwood box. There were four or five thousand taels of silver in it. He gave all of them to Gu Jiu. ”With these money, we should be able to hold on to the end of the year.”

Gu Jiu didn't reach out for the money. She had a straight face and was very unhappy.

Then he picked up the abacus and settled accounts with Liu Zhao.

”If you and I add up our wealth, we can get 920 to 10000 taels of silver and tens of thousands of catties of grain in a year.

In terms of your and my expenses, the annual expenses range from 25000 to 35000 taels.

Gongzhong only gave us 1680 taels, which, together with our annual income, was 26800 taels.

On the basis of the annual expenditure of 30000 taels, there is a deficit of 3200 taels. If we take the upper limit of 35000 taels, we will lose 8202 Liang a year.

Remember, I'm based on the income of a good year. If we encounter natural and man-made disasters, we will lose at least 10000 Liang a year. When we have children in the future, we will only have more deficits. ”

Gu Jiu tossed his abacus on the table and said his purpose for today, ”if you continue to burn money like this, then this year alone, we will have to owe several thousand taels of deficit. Your money is not enough to cover the deficit. ”

Liu Zhao: matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) is a great grandson of this young master. He has been said to speak East and west when he spends some money. I can't live this life.

He is a great grandson. He is a coward.

He let out his breath through his nostrils with an expressionless hum.

Gu Jiu: ha ha!

”I said so much, that's your reaction.”

Liu Zhao said, ”I'll find a way to deal with money.”
