farther away at any time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, she can also buy it locally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The specific choice depends on where the price of buying firewood is more cost-effective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pool in the bathhouse can accommodate many people, deducting the shop’s cost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The daily costs are just firewood and labor expenses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the price for a bath is reasonable, quite a few customers would be willing to visit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took out a white sheet of paper and calculated an account on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The daily expenses are about two to three taels of silver, and a customer pays ten copper coins for half an hour of bathing, including some massage work and snack expenses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a daily customer flow of 100 people, the basic income is one tael of silver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, the population of the capital is quite large, with tens of thousands of civilians alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of these people are quite wealthy, not lacking in that bit of silver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The price of ten copper coins is still set for ordinary large bathhouses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The really wealthy people are charged much more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the traffic flow, accommodating a thousand people a day is not a problem, so the basic income can be ten taels, and that’s just one day’s income, amounting to thirty taels in a month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition to the top-grade and second-grade bathhouses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The top-grade can set up private rooms for three to five people, available for monthly packages, targeting wealthy customers, with a monthly price of thirty taels per room, which they might even consider cheap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second-grade bathhouse is larger, but can only accommodate up to twenty people, with the price also being a bit expensive, costing twenty copper coins for half an hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catering to different levels of customers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The layout inside requires a large area, with a dedicated place for parking carriages at the entrance, separating the top-grade from the tertiary-grade, corresponding to the north and south gates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ensuring they don’t interfere with each other and also improve the tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just running a bathhouse lacks some characteristics, so Ye Muyu, after much consideration, decided to hire someone to write books and then invite the storyteller to tell stories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as the stories are exciting enough and the service good, people with spare money would naturally be willing to relax a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seriously looking for someone to write books is still necessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Muyu arranged for someone to find writers directly by recruiting in bookstores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who go to bookstores to buy books are certainly scholars, and those who can write good stories must be literate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, bookstores usually collect some stories, but in Ye Muyu’s opinion, they are not very impressive, failing to create an effect that can attract customers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, it’s better to cultivate a group of writers herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the content of the current books is still too serious, so listening to storytelling isn’t quite the popular activity right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this also means she is facing an untapped market for storytelling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She can not only send people to tell stories but also sell the content of those stories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some interested people, who are literate, would definitely not resist buying books, while others who are not literate can only listen when they visit the bathhouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what they choose, Ye Muyu is certain not to lose out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, during the incident involving Zhang Zhonghai and the Marquis of Ande, she took the opportunity to buy several properties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it will take no more than half a year to start making money, and of course, if books sell well, the cost recovery will be faster, since books are really expensive these days!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even a serialized novel costs no less than five taels of silver per book.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is absolutely a highly profitable business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, this time Ye Muyu received income from the shops, adding tens of thousands of taels to her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although it’s not much, it’s enough for her to invest in opening a shop without worrying about early stage capital turnover.\u003C\u002Fp>",686,"2026-06-05T23:54:38.741Z",1,"novelbin.me","975d6f629bcb1c967549eebcf4da95f63a77f173250b53570de0b7d6cdddfd4e","peasant-woman-s-decreed-life-as-a-wife-chapter-2020","peasant-woman-s-decreed-life-as-a-wife-chapter-2018",2499,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpeasant-woman-s-decreed-life-as-a-wife-cover.jpg"]
