How I Pampered the Tyrant Into Devotion With My Space-Chapter 486: These Earnings Are Absolutely Insane
Now, the daily turnover, combined with the wholesale from the workshops, has reached 2500 silver, steadily growing each day over this period.
Now, after deducting costs, the monthly profit totals thirty thousand silver.
Moreover, because the people of Xuzhou enjoy eating more, the restaurant and pastry shop businesses are even better than those in Jingzhou.
The queues are longer than in Jingzhou, but no one complains, everyone waits patiently.
The business at Pei’s Restaurant and pastry shop is described as booming by word of mouth, spreading rapidly.
There was no other choice but to buy all the nearby houses and land.
However, not all the houses here meet the standards, so Pei Shu’er specifically hired craftsmen to construct them, ensuring a unified style.
This architectural complex was designed by Pei Shu’er, blending her favorite elements with Xuzhou’s characteristics, eventually planning a complex most emblematic of Xuzhou.
Thus, the most grand and iconic buildings of Xuzhou were born.
As for the previous buildings, they were also renovated.
The people of Xuzhou had not expected their iconic buildings to be constructed and designed by an outsider.
Yet the style is both pleasing to the eye and comfortable, aligning with Xuzhou’s aesthetics.
Truly remarkable.
Thus, more people came to Xuzhou.
Originally, Xuzhou people were quite gentle and not at all xenophobic. Seeing this foreign merchant respect Xuzhou’s culture so much, naturally, they were happy.
The key is, they themselves did not quite understand Xuzhou’s culture until Manager Pei constructed it.
Only then did they feel a sense of familiarity with the buildings.
In the later years, when outsiders visited, the people of Xuzhou would take guests to the area of Pei’s Restaurant first.
Indeed, these buildings perfectly represented Xuzhou.
Going to Xuzhou without visiting Pei’s feels like having visited a fake Xuzhou.
Of course, that’s another story.
More people began visiting the restaurant, and more visited the pastry shop.
Many merchants also went to the pastry workshop to buy pastries, and the daily income stabilized at 3000 silver.
The Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion’s Bai San and Bai Si were suspicious when calculating the accounts.
The Xuzhou branch of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion was already a relatively profitable institution, selling and buying information, taking on tasks, all involving life-taking business.
However, these life-taking businesses top at only 50 silver per trip, especially difficult ones.
They could only accept up to ten such businesses a day.
Only 500 silver.
But 500 silver is just the price of twenty sets of skincare products.
Though few buy them set by set.
Moreover, the 500 silver daily income compared to 3000 silver is indeed too little.
More importantly, this business is very safe, with everyone seen daily being happy.
The food is great, even though the everyone’s exercise volume has increased, folks have gotten plump.
Frankly speaking, they somewhat forget their hometown, wishing they could continue working at Pei’s forever.
When Pei Shu’er left, she instructed everyone properly, promising regular visits to collect.
Or regularly send someone to retrieve, providing them with a tag bearing her name.
She showed the tag to three of them; it was very distinctive, not easily imitated.
When she left Xuzhou, she took away a full sixty thousand silver, excluding costs, as building and buying houses and hiring workers required money.
However, after the construction, more guests could be accommodated.
Initially, Bai San, Bai Si, and Bai Wu thought a daily income of three thousand silver was high, but after the houses were built, the highest record was daily income reaching five thousand silver.
They all wanted to gouge their own eyes out.
Thinking surely they’d seen wrong.
But no, this was real.
What their master would think if he knew madam was earning so much, they couldn’t imagine.
Then she took her people to Mengzhou and Huai State.
In these two places, Pei Shu’er applied the same method.
The Mengzhou people were tougher, but as long as the food tasted good, everyone paid willingly.
Mengzhou was not very wealthy, the highest daily revenue was two thousand silver, yet everyone praised Pei’s.
After two months, when Pei Shu’er left, she carried thirty thousand silver.
However, Mengzhou had advantages other places lacked.
Mengzhou produced cotton abundantly, so Pei Shu’er opened a fabric shop there, employing some to spin thread, some to weave cloth.
They wove cotton fabric and some gauze as well.
Once the weaving was nearly completed, the business no longer required Pei Shuer’s assistance.
Pei Shu’er was not aiming for profit with this business for now, instructing the fabric shop workers to stack finished goods in the warehouse, and if the warehouse was insufficient, to consult those managing them and await their orders.
There was a Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion in every state, so they could contact her in due time, and she could pass messages through them.
Of course, Pei Shu’er also paid the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion managers working at Pei’s a monthly salary of 50 silver.
Upon seeing this salary, everyone was stunned.
They had worked at the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion for so many years with an income of only thirty silver, tasks counted separately.
Currently, prices are not high, an era where food isn’t expensive before the famine.
Farmers selling grains only fetched a few copper coins per pound, really not worthwhile.
Imagine this fifty silver, such a high income.
Even those in official positions couldn’t compare their income.
The previous thirty silver was already high, now fifty silver could be considered a stellar salary.
Those little vendors could only earn twenty silver a month.
Even though loyalty was engraved in their bones, they couldn’t help but have thoughts of following madam.
Then they frantically shook their heads, no way, the master would kill them!
After reaching Huai State, another two months passed.
Huai State people focused more on appearances, so Pei Shu’er vigorously marketed skincare products.
Huai State was wealthy and spent money willingly; Pei Shu’er also discovered the fabrics here were quite good.
But most were silk fabrics.
Speaking of silk, the best would undoubtedly be Jiangnan’s.
Liu Xu looked at those silks, less interested.
"Shu’er, let’s go to Jiangnan instead, the silk here isn’t as good as Jiangnan’s."
Pei Shu’er nodded: "Sure, let’s go to Jiangnan."
Liu Xu’s smile on her face brightened noticeably, and she began speaking more.
All about Jiangnan’s delicious foods, fun activities, and what she played with before getting married.
She brought up the fabric of Jiangnan.
"Not to brag, Jiangnan’s fabric is better than Mengzhou’s and Huai State’s, with greater variety. There’s cotton, silk, Cloud Brocade, and golden thread woven ones."
"Moreover, the embroideresses there are the most skilled, with many cloth imperial merchants."
At the mention of embroideresses, Pei Shu’er’s eyes lit up.
