Chapter 64
.Maybe, he could still keep all the dowry left by Thirteen Niang's mother Zheng in the Cui family.
Cui Shisann is eighteen years old this year and has not yet married. A large part of the reason is that her stepmother Wang refuses to marry her family. Wang refuses to pay a lot of money for a dowry, and he has been thinking about swallowing the dowry left by Zheng. She also wants to spend a lot of money to accompany her family.
Without a large amount of money, Wang refused to intermarry with ordinary families, and she refused to marry Shisanniang. Therefore, Cui Shisanniang, the legitimate daughter of the family, was still in the age of eighteen, and she became an older single woman.
This time the Qin family was willing to propose marriage to the Cui family for Zhang Chao. Wang immediately spoke up, and once he opened his mouth, he asked for 1,000 taels of gold. That was a total of eight million yuan, which was much higher than the wealth of the accompanying families requested by major wealthy families in Shandong now, or even several times the amount.
Wang's intention is to shout more first, but it's all over the place to ask for a price.
But what the Cui family did not expect was that Qin Qiong actually agreed without any bargaining for his adopted son.
One thousand taels of gold is a lot of money for a dilapidated family like the Cui family, but for a newcomer like Qin Qiong, it is really nothing.
He did not bargain with the Cui family, one thousand taels is only one thousand taels.
In order to marry Zhang Chao with a woman with a surname of five, Qin Qiong was very generous and generous.
Qin Qiong gave the Zhang family a thousand taels of money, and the marriage immediately disappeared without any obstacles.
However, Qin Qiong told Zhang Tieqian that he should not tell Zhang Chao about accompanying the family finance for the time being. He paid the money, so he would treat it as a wedding gift for Zhang Chao.
This matter made my father very grateful. If it weren't for Qin Qiong, Zhang Chao would definitely not have been able to reach a famous family like the Cui family. If it weren't for Qin Qiong, the Zhang family would not have been able to accompany the family. Dad was not a person who could have been accompanied by the dragon and phoenix. If it were himself, he would never have been able to reach a famous family. It's just that Zhang Chao was his own son. For the sake of his son, fathers were always willing to do many things that he was unwilling to do.
But there is no need to tell Zhang Chao about these things.
"The Cui family has no conditions. They are optimistic about you and think you are very good. They will definitely have a future in the future." The father smiled.
"However, the Cui family said that there may not be too many dowry at that time, but they will not treat you too badly. General Cui said that at that time, he will take the dowry of Fumanlou, Dongshi, a grain shop, a cloth farm, and a 500-acre land farm in the suburbs of Beijing as the dowry."
A restaurant, two shops, plus a farm, can be estimated to be hundreds of thousands of dollars together. If the high point is estimated, it may be estimated to be millions.
It sounds like a lot.
This made Zhang Chao even more confused. The Cui family actually gave so many dowry? This sounds like a Shanxi media boss marrying a daughter, and he always gets hundreds of millions of dowry.
But this kind of good thing actually came to my turn?
Even if the Cui family wants to curry favor with Qin Qiong, there is no need to lick it like this. A million-dollar dowry is a huge burden for the Cui family today.
"Didn't the Cui family ask for a bride price?"
"The bride price must be given, but they didn't ask for it and did not ask for any conditions. We can just give it to ourselves. I will discuss it with your adoptive father and give it one hundred taels of gold."
"Did the Cui family agree?"
"I promise, I've already done it. They're interested in you, not money."
Zhang Chao really doesn't believe it. He only charges 800,000 yuan for the dowry, but he is a million yuan for the dowry? If it is an ordinary family, it is normal, but the Cui family has five surnames and seven sects.
"Dad, let me ask you something. Then the wife of the Cui family is really not squinting eyes or crooked mouths, or cripple, or pockmarked?"
"Of course not. Your adoptive father had invited someone to meet the young lady of the Cui family last time. Although he is a little older and is already 29 years old this year, he is still very handsome and can read and write, and is more versatile and can cook with female craftsmen."
Zhang Chaoyue heard something worse and wrong. Nian Fang was only eighteen years old. She was not disabled, she looked good, and she was talented. Such a good girl, who came from a famous family, was also the daughter of the Cui family. She must have been pursued by all parties, so how could it fall into his hands?
"Don't think so much, I still say the same thing. The Cui and the two families are interested in you."
"We can't take out one hundred taels of gold, I think it's better to forget it, I can't afford to climb up." Zhang Chao took the opportunity.
"Your adoptive father has already given you a gift, so you can rest assured. Marry a woman from five surnames. If others ask for it, you can't come. You see, not only the royal family marrying a woman from five surnames, but even Guan Long Haoyou and many upstarts in military merit are competing to marry the Shandong gentry. The women of Shandong gentry have a good family style and a good family background. If you have a family of girls, you can't be so good at getting a bargain."
Even the Crown Princess was a daughter of the Zheng family in Xingyang with five surnames and seven sects. Aren’t the other nobles in the court marrying them one after another?
"We have made an appointment with the Cui family and set a date another day. At that time, the Cui family invites us to come and sit there. Then they will arrange an opportunity so that you can see each other."
This is also considered a version of the Tang Dynasty blind date, but when you meet, you really only meet and have no communication. Find an opportunity to let the two look at each other from a distance and look at each other from a distance. Anyway, you have an impression before marriage, so you won’t be completely blind people touching the elephant.
Seeing this, Zhang Chao had no choice but to agree temporarily.
In fact, he wanted to marry a little jade family, and it would be better if he was the daughter of a little landlord.
He felt very distressed about his 100 taels of gold. Last time he cheated 100 taels of gold from the Cui family, he was going to vomit all of them back in a blink of an eye. If he found a landlord lady of a good match, he would still make a profit from getting married.
Nowadays, if it is a marriage of a good match, the man usually has to give a wedding ceremony, but the woman often has to give a double dowry, or even more.
Therefore, there is a saying among the people that thieves do not enter the door of five daughters. If a family has five daughters, then thieves will not patronize their family. Such a family will definitely marry their daughters and get poor.
Mr. Wang’s family has nine daughters, so he is very poor. The three daughters in the family are already married and cannot find a dowry because they don’t have money to get married.
Nowadays, many people are willing to marry their daughter to a man with a lower status than their own family. This way, they can save a lot of dowry and make a lot of money.
The gift of 800,000 yuan and the dowry of 1 million yuan is not a loss.
But Zhang Chao felt that he had never seen anyone before, and this had been decided, which was too unreliable.
One hundred taels of gold, Zhang Chao still feels very distressed, how many yellow buns have to be sold?
Fortunately, the soap was unexpectedly popular and could make a profit immediately.
Zhang Chao told his father that he had received more than 3,000 soap reservations.
"Each piece of soap sells six guan, and the net profit is more than five guan, and more than three thousand yuan is more than ten thousand guan. This time I've given it." Zhang Chao threw the unhappiness behind his mind, making money even more exciting.
Zhang Chao planned to continue to give the five dukes 10% of the shares as the previous meal business, so that the Zhang family and son will continue to retain 50% of the shares.
If you divide half of the profit, Zhang Chao can earn at least about 8,000 knots, or more than 8 million yuan.
After this order business is completed, he will be rich. If he can open up a larger market in the future, it will be a treasure pot and will continue to make a fortune.
Zhang Chao did not hesitate to give half of the soap business to the five dukes. The more profitable the transaction, the stronger the backing, otherwise he would not be able to defend it.
Dad was stunned by the listening side.
"You mean, after you just finished the soap order you received, we earned more than 8,000 guan of net profit? More than 8,000 guan, one thousand taels of gold?"
"That's right, after we finish the order in hand, we will get a thousand taels of gold. This is not considered the follow-up. Dad, we are going to issue it!"
Lao Tieqian grinned and smiled happily.
