Space Farming: The Rough Man Orion Dotes on His Wife Excessively

Chapter 193: Adjust to the wind

Gao Caitong said directly, "A person can earn ten taels of silver a year."

The corners of Gu Rao's mouth twitched.

Look, you dare to think!

Gao Caitong, "Knowledge is precious..."

Gu Rao raised his hand to his forehead.

"I also want to make more money, but we still have to be down-to-earth and realistic. My arithmetic is not taught to one or two people, but to the public. As long as you give money, you can come and learn. Once you start teaching, arithmetic is not The secret is not a unique secret anymore.”

"If the price is set too high, some people can wait for others to learn it, and then pay to learn from those who have already learned it."

Gao Caitong has always been the same.

"Then five taels of silver a year? Any less is really not worthwhile. The ultimate goal of doing business is to make money."

"What you teach far exceeds those values."

Gu Rao still shook his head.

"I have decided, one tael of silver for one semester and one thousand nine hundred wen for two semesters."

Gao Caitong covered his chest.

"Isn't it a waste for you to charge so much for such a great opportunity to make money?"

Gu Rao smiled.

"Two taels of silver is already very high. I think those who are willing to learn can still afford this price."

"I also hope that more and more people can learn arithmetic."

Gao Caitong is no longer reluctant.

"Since you already have an idea, I won't say anything."

Everyone has his own ideas. He can't impose his ideas on others, right? Maybe one day in the future, as the master said, more and more people will be able to do arithmetic, which seems not to be a bad thing.

"When does school start?"

Gu Rao said, "Start registering in five days. You can start teaching them the second time after registering."

Gao Caitong was looking forward to it and said positively, "Leave the registration to me. Master, you just have to wait until six days to go to the academy to teach them."

Gu Rao had this intention.

Now she has a cooperative relationship with Gao Caitong, and the academy also owns part of Gao Caitong's shares, so she has no burden on Gao Caitong's use.

"Then it's hard work for you."

Gao Caitong smiled honestly.

"It's all what I should do."

Gu Rao coughed lightly and said, "About borrowing money..."

Gao Caitong took out a piece of paper.

"I have already written the IOU. Master, please take a look at it. If there is anything you are not satisfied with, you can revise it again."

Gu Rao took it and took a look.

"Why didn't you write down the interest?"

The debt repayment period was set for one year, so the pressure on her to repay the debt was quite small.

Gao Caitong smiled and said, "It's just two hundred taels of silver. It's not a big amount to me. If I lend it to others, I would definitely not worry about it, but what is our relationship?"

"It's too vulgar to talk about interest."

Gu Rao raised his eyebrows.

"We are just ordinary people, so what's so vulgar about talking about interest? Brothers are still settling accounts clearly, so let's not do that nonsense. Let's just add interest."

If interest is really not added, what is owed is a favor.

It is easy to repay debts, but it is not easy to repay favors.

Gao Caitong couldn't defeat her.

"In your opinion, what is the appropriate interest rate?"

Gu Rao said, "I can't borrow it for that long. I should be able to return the two hundred taels of silver to you within half a year. Calculated based on the interest of ten taels of silver a month, how about giving you sixty taels of interest in six months?" "

The interest rate is actually a bit high.

But in this era, whether it is a bank or other places, the interest on borrowing money is already high, so the interest she gives is relatively small.

Gao Caitong has no objection.

"Okay, just do as you say. I'm not in a hurry to use the money. You can wait half a year and repay the money at once, or you can repay a little bit every month. How to repay the money depends on you."

"Xiao Liu, go get two hundred taels of silver notes."

Liu Xiaobao quickly took over the two hundred taels of silver notes.

Gu Rao took the banknote, fingerprinted the IOU, and signed his name.

Three days passed quickly, and soon came the day of bidding at Fuyun Restaurant.

Gu Rao and Bieye didn't do business today. After cleaning up briefly, they took all their money and arrived at Fuyun Restaurant early to wait for the bidding to begin.

They came here in the morning, thinking they were early, but when they arrived, they found that the restaurant was already overcrowded.

Most of them are servants who have reserved a seat for their master first.

The second floor has been enclosed.

Gu Rao and Bieye originally wanted to find a seat by the window, but they found out because of the waiter that there were no better seats on the first floor.

If they want a place to sit, they can only share a table with others.

Gu Rao was still hesitating.

The waiter said in a nonchalant tone, "If you don't want to spend money to find a place to sit, just find a place to stand by yourself. Don't keep others who want to pay money to sit waiting."

The wealthy people he usually saw were gone. When he saw the couple's clothes and there were no servants or maids behind them, he knew they were not from a wealthy family, so he was not very polite to them. Lack of patience.

Gu Rao frowned slightly.

"Did I say no money?"

It's just that the better seats here are all gone, and I don't want to sit at the same table with people I don't know, so I hesitated a little. "

The waiter ignored her. When he saw a richly dressed man with a folding fan coming from behind her, he immediately changed his mind and put on a dog-legged face.

"Master, have you requested to reserve a seat?"

Ma Xiuqing nodded.

"Yeah, second floor."

The waiter's eyes brightened even more.

"I'll take you up here, little one!"

Gu Rao heard a familiar voice and turned around to see that he was indeed a familiar person.

After Gu Rao turned around, Ma Xiuqing recognized who she was, and subconsciously glanced at her side. When she saw the tall and powerful Bie Ye, there was a hint of guilt and fear in her eyes.

He quickly covered most of his face with a fan.

The action is overshadowed.

The waiter took Ma Xiuqing up to the second floor.

Gu Rao and Bieye were left where they were, without even the chance to find a spot.

Bieye said, "Wait for me here."

Gu Rao looked puzzled.

"What are you going to do?"

Bieye said, "I'll go back and move two small stools. There's really no room, so let's sit in the corner. There are not many people in the corner."

Gu Rao observed Bie Ye's expression and saw that he didn't have any strange emotions after seeing Ma Xiuqing. He acted like a normal person, so he knew that he was really disappointed with Bie Xiaoqiao and would really not care about him in the future. Forget about Xiao Qiao.

I was very happy.

"Go."

-

An hour later, the bidding finally began.

This auction meeting is not very professional. The person hosting the auction meeting is actually the waiter from the store just now!

Gu Rao's mouth twitched when he saw the waiter coming up. Later he realized that in such a big restaurant, the waiter seemed to be the only one!

No wonder it is on the verge of bankruptcy!

The waiter's name is Lu Xiaoer.

He stood in the middle of the corridor on the second floor and said to the people below and on the second floor, "Today is the day for bidding at Fuyun Restaurant. The starting price is three hundred taels of silver. Please start bidding now!"

The sound of bidding came from the box on the second floor.

"Three hundred and twenty taels!"

"Three hundred and fifty taels!"

"Five hundred taels!"

"Six hundred taels!"
