As can be seen from the previous times of Jin Pingmei, the competition between matchmakers is also quite fierce.

There is no marriage without the media. The matchmaker plays a very important role in China's marriage system.

So, what is the income of the matchmaker? We can estimate it as RMB according to the data in many other contemporary novels. ):

At that time, the matchmaker could earn about1500,300 yuan per marriage, which was different. ) It varies according to family circumstances.

As the saying goes, "You can wear a new suit if you have a good relationship." According to today's standards, it is equivalent to the price of a decent suit.

The matchmaker's single income is obviously considerable. But it is not every day that people get married, and even it is normal for some matchmakers not to open for half a year.

So most matchmakers are only part-time matchmakers. As soon as they hear that someone is getting married, they should make the first move so as not to fall behind others.

Otherwise, the future business can't be done.

Three matchmakers have been mentioned some time ago.

The best matchmaker is Wang, the woman who set a poisonous plan to poison Wu Dalang.

Mrs. Wang's main business is selling tea. How is the tea business? In her own words, this is called "ghost watch". So at the same time, I worked part-time as a matchmaker, sold some clothes and worked as a midwife with others. In my spare time, I often take the lead, pimp and acupuncture to see a doctor.

From the perspective of small business, Mrs. Wang is actually very capable. Part-time six or seven, the best, or matchmaking, pimping.

Ximen Qing's first wife, a girl who married director Wu, was a matchmaker helped by Mrs. Wang. Supposedly, Ximen Qing should pay more attention to Mrs. Wang.

But Mrs. Wang said that Ximen Qing has always been used to being stingy.

Mrs. Wang asked, "Boss Xi, why haven't you come to my place for tea for a long time recently?"

Ximen Qing said easily, "I'm too busy these days. My girl is getting married and can't be idle. "

Mrs. Wang is very unhappy. "Who is your girl? Why don't you ask me to be a matchmaker? "

Ximen Qing said, "Oh, it's not that you don't ask your foster mother to be a matchmaker. My girl is going to marry in Tokyo, the son of the in-laws of Tokyo's 800,000 imperial army prefect. It was Mrs. Wen who came to talk to our sister-in-law. "

Wen Sao is a matchmaker in Beijing, and there should be no contradiction with Wang Pozi. Sister Xue is a matchmaker in this county and a strong competitor of Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang said with a smile, "Boss Xi, we matchmakers are all sons of bitches."

Ximen Qing said, "If the foster mother is willing to go, I will send someone to invite you, including you."

Mrs. Wang said, "They are matchmakers, but I won't take part. How can I share the cooked rice with them? Please let me know when you will get married tomorrow. I'll take some money for a walk and get a semi-desktop, which will be serious. How can I be angry with others! "

Wang's wife introduced Pan Jinlian to Ximen Qing and spent a lot of time. At the beginning, the agreed price was 3000 yuan, but in fact, it was more than that, and it probably earned five or six thousand yuan! It has far exceeded the average profit of the same industry.

Needless to say, Pan Jinlian's beauty is even more rare. I learned to play and sing in Wang Fu since I was a child, and I play the pipa very well. No one in this county is better than her. Ximen Qing was very happy to hear her play the piano and sing, full of praise.

Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian got along for about two months, and spent tens of thousands back and forth. ) The passion began to fade, and Ximen Qing came less.

Let me talk about another matchmaker in this county: Sister Xue.

Sister-in-law Xue sells flowers and grandma works as a matchmaker part-time.

Ximen Qing and Wang Po's marriage was decided by Wang Po, but Sister Xue didn't get it. Xue sister-in-law, of course, is also competitive, so she took aim at Ximen Qing's daughter and finally robbed the business and made it.

Mrs. Wang didn't do Ximen Qing's daughter's marriage, and she didn't even know about it, so Wang Po was very angry and the consequences were very serious. She tried to fix Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian for adultery, and profited from it herself. By doing so, Wang Po made a fortune.

Where's Sister Xue? Of course, I'm not far behind. Secretly compared with the number one matchmaker, Mrs. Wang, and found a partner for Ximen Qing.

On this day, Ximen Qing is getting even with the guy named Fu in the pharmacy. Sister-in-law Xue called Ximen Qing to a quiet place outside to talk.

Ximen Qing asked her what she wanted.

Sister Xue said, "Boss, didn't your third wife die not long ago? I have an appointment. I will tell Lucy's boss that according to your father's wishes, I will let her replace the dead third wife. What do you think? "

Ximen Qing said, "Tell me, whose family is this marriage?"

Mrs Xue said, "Madam, speaking of which, what should your old man know? She is the wife of boss Yang, who sells cloth in the south gate. She has a lot of money in her hand. There are two drawer beds in Nanjing. Four seasons clothes can't be inserted, there are four or five boxes. Needless to say, there are thousands of silver in hand. )。 Well, there are also three or two hundred barrels of three shuttle cloths. Unexpectedly, her husband went to sell cloth and died outside. Widowed for more than a year, no children around. Only the brother-in-law, her husband's younger brother Yang Zongbao, is only ten years old. I said what if she is young and widowed at this age! This lady is less than 2056 this year, two or three years younger than you. She is tall, good-looking, dressed like a lamp, and delicate and charming. She is the master of Li Ji, a female worker and a backgammon player. Needless to say. To tell the truth, her maiden name is Meng, Third Sister, and she lives in Smelly Water Lane. Boss Lucy, you can play the piano well again. Shoot an arrow at the crib when you see her! "

Sister-in-law Xue is also a good mouth.

Hearing this, Ximen Qing heard that the woman could play the piano and fell in love with him. Before I met her, I immediately decided to marry her and let her be my third wife.

I have an appointment with Sister Xue right away. Tomorrow is an auspicious day. We will buy her a present tomorrow.

Pan Jinlian sits at the door every day, watching, watching and watching Gu Qiushui. He doesn't come, he doesn't come, but he can't see a Ximen Qing.
