The other party was obviously stunned for a moment when he saw Yun Jing, and then he quickly came over with a surprised look on his face and said, "Young master, you are back."

The young man was none other than Song Yan, the scholar assigned to him by Yunjing's master Li Qiu. Yunjing did not take him with him during the study tour and asked him to take care of the place and worry about the cake shop.

Yunjing is still very relieved about Song Yan. Firstly, it's because of his character. Secondly, the relationship between the two is master and servant, not an ordinary master-servant relationship. It should be noted that Song Yan signed the contract of betrayal. His fate

Everything is in Yun Jing's hands. If he betrays him, he only needs to inform the government and there will be no place for him in the world.

It is precisely because of this relationship that Song Yan was so excited after seeing Yun Jing. When Yun Jing was not around, he felt somewhat without a backbone.

"Well, it's been a few days since I returned from my study tour. I've been spending time with my family these days, and I only had time to come over today. How are you doing during this time?" Yun Dingding nodded.

Song Yan naturally took the umbrella from Yun Jing's hand, then followed Yun Jing half a step behind and replied: "Master, everything is fine with me. It's just that you have been away during this period, and I always feel empty. Now that the master is back,

Now, the little one feels much more at ease.”

"Don't do this to me, it sounds so awkward," Yun Jing said dumbly.

After the two entered the house, Song Yan consciously put down the paper umbrella, then immediately moved a stool for Yun Jing, and even went to make tea for Yun Jing without stopping.

Even after a few months, this set of procedures is not unfamiliar to him at all, and it is even smoother than before.

After taking a sip of tea, Yunjing looked at Song Yan and said, "I haven't seen you for a few months, and you have already entered the middle stage of the day after tomorrow. Not bad. It seems that you have not been lazy during my absence."

"Thanks to the young master, if the young master hadn't given him the secret book of martial arts, Xiao Xiao wouldn't be what he is today. How could he dare to let down the young master's wishes? Naturally, he doesn't dare to be tired for a moment. Now Xiao Xiao has some tricks, although he doesn't dare to

Compared with the young master, if someone bumps into the young master blindly, the younger one can also help the young master to cook for a while," Song Yan said with a smile, his tone full of confidence.

Although the relationship between the two is master and servant, it is not an ordinary master-servant relationship. They have more friends and speak very casually. Of course, there are still rules that should be followed and cannot be exceeded.

Song Yan is the same age as Yun Jing, and his martial arts talent is actually average. The reason why he is now entering the middle stage of acquired life is not only because he knows that the opportunity is hard-won, but also because of the secrets of martial arts given by Yun Jing.

He secretly used spiritual energy to help him achieve his current achievements.

In fact, his martial arts cultivation in the mid-acquired period at this stage is only at the middle to lower level when looking at the world, and cannot compare with the top-notch geniuses. However, such skills are more than enough in Niujiao Town, and even in Xinning County, they are considered

A good hand.

As a bookboy today, after Yunjing establishes his own business in the future, Song Yan will undoubtedly serve as the housekeeper of the Yunjing family. He can be regarded as the face of the Yunjing family. In the future, Song Yan will help Yunjing handle many things.

, so it is natural to cultivate it.

"Young master, I am not a troublemaker. There are so many blind people coming to attack me and I am waiting for you to take care of it. Instead of thinking about this, you might as well focus on reading." Yun Jing shook his head and said.

Song Yan said: "Don't worry, young master, I haven't fallen behind in studying."

Song Yan didn't say much about this. He had sold himself to Yunjing, and now he had a lowly status and was not eligible for the imperial examination. That was his own choice at the time, and studying was just to do better for Yunjing in the future.

"Well, I know your character. I don't need to say more. Just do things with your heart. I won't treat you badly in the future." After saying this, after a little greeting, Yunjing changed the subject and said, "Okay, tell me, I'm not here."

How has the shop been doing during this time?"

Song Yan immediately said seriously: "Master, now the shop is doing well. Putting aside all expenses, the shop's monthly net profit is at least 5,000 taels..."

"Wait, how much?" Hearing this, Yun Jing immediately interrupted him and said in slight shock.

A net profit of more than five thousand taels, converted into cattle, would be two hundred and fifty... Well, Yunjing is used to measuring money by the price of cattle.

But the crux of the question is, how much can a cake shop make in a month?

Song Yan nodded and said: "Yes, young master, you heard it right, it is more than five thousand taels. The reason why it is so much is because now the reputation of our cake shop is gradually spreading, and many people from far away will come to spend money to buy it.

There are many customers in the county town, and they are usually the expensive ones. There are too many wealthy families in the county town. There are also restaurants and teahouses, which are also our main sellers. There are always high-rollers in those places, especially

It's the end of the year, and business is even more booming. I'm afraid the net profit for this month will exceed 20,000 taels. It should be noted that big families will not be stingy with spending money during the New Year Festival. There are also gatherings among various scholars during the end of the year.

There are more and more, and our cakes are indispensable to add to the fun. Hey, those scholars use cakes to please the young lady, which is the best way to please..."

Hearing what Song Yan said, Yunjing was relieved. From the beginning, Yunjing had no intention of doing business for ordinary people when it came to cakes. Who would have thought that after the novelty wore off, not only did the business not weaken, but it actually got better and better.

Methods, exclusive operations, and monopoly profits are so hot.

This is limited to Xinlin County. If you look at the whole country, the profits will be endless.

Making money is one thing, but high profits come with high risks. It should be noted that in this era, there are many jealous and unruly people.

After Song Yan had finished speaking, Yunjing asked, "The shop is making so much money, nothing happened, right?"

Speaking of this, Song Yan mused: "I want the young master to know that our shop is doing well and making money. Of course, there are jealous people. When the young master was away, he came to discuss cooperation and purchase formulas more than ten times."

Yes, there are local people, and there are also people from the county and even county towns. But this is a business that lays golden eggs. How can it be easier for others? Shopkeeper Zhang refused. Many times people came to make trouble. They were ordinary rogues, but they were all beaten by Uncle Liu and Ding.

I sent it off, but there hasn’t been any major mistakes so far.”

The current skills of Liu Dazhuang, Ding Wei and others can still withstand this place in Niujiao Town. Yun Dingding nodded and said: "Except for these rogues who usually cause trouble, there are no people in the martial arts who are jealous? What about the official trouble?"

"No," Song Yan shook his head immediately, and then continued: "This is also a strange thing. Officially, it's okay. Young Master, you are a person with a good reputation. With Mr. Li's current status, he is jealous of our business.

People who want to seek trouble from the official side naturally have to weigh whether their bones are strong or not, but people in the martial arts world are surprised. There is no trouble in this regard, as if someone has specially said hello. The little one is very puzzled."

"Tsk, it stands to reason that the food appearance of people in the martial arts is the most ugly, but there is no trouble in this aspect. To be honest, I am a little confused about it," Yun Jing said thoughtfully.

Looking at Yun Jing's face, Song Yan said: "Master, would you like me to find a way to understand why there is no trouble from the Jianghu side?"

After thinking about it, Yun Jing said: "It's okay to understand a little bit, but don't worry too much. Since it's okay, it's always good."

"I understand, young master. By the way, young master, do you need me to show you the account books for the past few months?" Song Yan nodded.

Yunjing shook his head and said, "No, I can rest assured that you are doing things for me."

That being said, Yun Jing had actually already used his mind power to read the account books secretly while speaking, so there was no need to do anything more. However, there was no need to tell Song Yan about this kind of thing.

For Yunjing's trust, Song Yan was extremely grateful in his heart and did not show it. He just kept it in his heart. He then asked: "Master, I think our pastries can be bigger and stronger. Now we have the capital."

, do you want to open a branch elsewhere?”

No one would complain about the lack of money. With the popularity of cakes, the money is just there waiting to be picked up. Why not? As a servant, Song Yan truly considers the problem from Yun Jing's perspective.

Regarding his proposal, Yunjing said: "No need for now, let's talk about it after the New Year Festival. I have concerns in my mind. I can't make enough money, and sometimes too much money is not necessarily a good thing."

"I understand, little one." Song Yan stopped talking.

Then Yun Jing stood up and said: "Come on, come with me to the shop. I have been away for a few months and Uncle Zhang has been busy. I will be the shopkeeper. There is no reason not to say hello when I come back."

"Okay, young master, it's just that it's too late to prepare a car for you now," Song Yan said anxiously, and at the same time, he said to himself that Zhang Changgui met his young master. He really met a noble man. He was a toilet dealer at the beginning, but now he is rich when he greets and delivers him.

people.

Not knowing what Song Yan was thinking, Yunjing walked towards the door and said, "No, we'll just walk there. It's not that far anyway. By the way, you may be busy next. Help me purchase some fabrics. You don't need much, but

Okay, let's buy a dozen horses first. This has to be done today. I have to go back in the afternoon and take them away. Then, after the New Year Festival, I will visit all the gentlemen, relatives and friends. You have to prepare gifts and other things for me in advance.

, I will give you a list later, you should know what to do yourself."

With someone helping to handle these things, Yunjing doesn't have to do it himself. After all, he is no longer the farm boy who once had enough to eat at home.

Things are not what they used to be, and who can say clearly what life will bring.

"I understand, little one," Song Yan nodded seriously.

After being a book boy for so many years, he certainly knows what kind of gifts should be given to whom, and he will prepare them for Yun Jing. If he doesn't even have this bit of discernment, what's the use of him?
