Chapter 516: Chapter 503: Lots of Small Money


    “By the way, here are the ount books for this period. Manager Zhuang, have a look. I’ve also brought over your share,”


    Miao Hongjin pulled out a semi-new wooden box from a least conspicuous bamboo basket filled with wheat straw, revealing the silver inside.


    The workshop pays dividends every three months, but since it had just started, they decided to wait until the end of the year to settle the ounts.


    This was the first dividend distribution for the Sweet Potato ss Noodle Workshop.


    “The workshop’s doing great. From when it started until now, we’ve earned about twelve hundred taels of silver. Manager Zhuang, your share is ten percent, so here is one hundred and twenty taels. The rest has already been distributed ording to everyone’s share of the silver stocks,”


    “Those withrge shares received around thirty to forty taels of silver, and even those with the smallest shares received at least three to four taels. Everyone is overjoyed,”


    “By the way, yesterday Manager Cheng visited our workshop. He brought a lot of year-end gifts for everyone and said that the ss noodles being sold in the city are doing well. He ns to start selling them in the surrounding counties and cities next year. He even ns to sell these sweet potato ss noodles in Jiangsu-Zhejiang area,”


    “If that’s the case, we’ll need to expand the ss noodle workshop, hire more workers, and produce more. If we can do this, the profits for next year could multiple several times over,”


    The more Miao Hongjin spoke, the more excited he became.


    In the past, they were poor and could only afford to eat sweet potatoes for every meal. Miao Vige was notoriously poor that it was infamously nicknamed ck Miao Vige.<div>


    They were called ck Miao Vige because the steamed cornbread made from sweet potato flour was ck. It implied that everyone in Miao Vige could only afford to eat this ck cornbread and couldn’t afford to eat white flour all year round.


    Everyone in the vige used to sigh andment. Some even med heaven for being unfair. While other ces had fertilend where everything would grow, here they could only grow sweet potatoes. These unseble crops made people want to throw up if eaten too much.


    And now, they’ve actually been able to earn a fortune off of these very sweet potatoes, and it looks like they’ll continue to get richer. How could they not be happy?


    “The vigers nearby have all been asking about working in the Sweet Potato ss Noodle Workshop. I’ve noticed many viges around have now started nting sweet potatoes, not nting anything else. Soon, I suspect that even if all the surrounding viges grow sweet potatoes, we still won’t have enough. I should start looking around for more ces to obtain quality sweet potatoes,”


    Zhuang Qingning had not anticipated that the Sweet Potato ss Noodle Workshop would do so well. But considering Miao Vige’s people and Miao Hongjin’s capabilities, she was not very surprised.


    “It looks like Vige Chief Miao will have to work even harder next year,” Zhuang Qingning said with a smile.


    “It’s not a problem, it’s not a problem, it’s all worth it,” Miao Hongjin scratched his head. “Besides, it is for earning money, so it’s worth the hard work.”


    Miao Hongjin’s family had also received twenty taels of silver.


    With this twenty taels of silver, his family seemed to be much wealthier. Miao Hongjin also felt very motivated at this time, and didn’t mind the hard work.


    Just as the saying goes, the more you work, the more you gain. Hard work leads to wealth. This was precisely the state of Miao Vige at this point.


    Zhuang Qingning watched and felt delighted in her heart.


    Miao Hongjin still wanted to visit Cheng Ruize at the county town. After talking to Zhuang Qingning for a while, he left.


    Seeing that it was gettingte, Zhuang Qingning didn’t detaining him. After seeing him off, she organized the items he had brought over.


    Especially, she made sure to handle the money properly.


    Speaking of it, the Sweet Potato ss Noodle Workshop has earned her one hundred twenty taels of silver. The Tofu Workshop, Tofu Skin Workshop, and Century Egg Workshopbined, together with the business in the town extend stable profits over the past few months. If calcted, each month these establishments collectively generate around six to seven hundred taels of profit. After deducting daily expenses and other spending, she has around two thousand taels of silver saved up now.


    This money, apart from small change needed for daily expenses, Zhuang Qingning has rented a storage box in the ‘System Mall’, where all the silver is kept. This method is safe and easy, and the money can be essed at any time.


    She now added the extra one hundred twenty taels of silver to it, retaining a little loose change, and putting the rest into the storage box.


    Looking at the pile of shining silver, Zhuang Qingning felt a profound sense of achievement.


    If, next year, all the workshops were to double their profits, and the dried noodle workshop opens again, if Moon Incense could lift off…<div>


    So much money!


    Zhuang Qingning seemed to see a shower of snow-white silver, falling towards her like snowkes.


    At this rate, bing the wealthiest person in the entire county doesn’t seem to be too difficult.


    “Host, I suggest you take a look at this,”<div>


    Suddenly, a panel appeared in Zhuang Qingning’s mind as soon as ‘Five’ finished speaking.


    The panel showed all the bor points’ she still owed. At the moment, she owed negative 7,863bor points.


    Damn!


    Zhuang Qingning, who was feeling very ambitious just moment ago, suddenly felt deted like an eggnt.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    Can’t we avoid throwing cold water when I’m feeling great?


    Also, if the System Mall allows us to exchange items forbor points, can we exchange items in return forbor points?


    “Sorry, the system allows for the exchange ofbor points for merchandise, but not the exchange of goods forbor points,”


    “However, if the host wants to quickly earnbor points, in addition to normally running workshops and doing business, you can also do some daily tasks.”


    “Daily tasks are released every five days andpleting them can earn arge number ofbor points.”


    “If thepletion is graded as excellent, you can get extrabor points. The extrabor points range from ten percent to one hundred percent of the task’sbor points.”


    “Overall, if the host can squeeze out some time to do tasks, repaying thebor points should be just around the corner.”


    This sounds good.


    “However, I need to remind the host that these daily tasks are based on the host’s own situation and may not be easy toplete.”<div>


    No problem, to repay the debt as soon as possible and return to normal, it’s just a matter of oveing a few difficulties.


    “Alright…”


    “Ding! The system has issued a daily task: personally sew a pair of soles in five days. Uponpletion, you will receive 99bor points. If rated as excellent, you may get an additional 15%bor points.”
