Chapter 150

When Luo Jin stepped down, Bai Fu held up another red envelope:
"The second hero is our little Si'er! In order to develop cement, it is said that he couldn't eat well or sleep well. He just tossed himself and lost a few pounds, and he had dark circles under his eyes at a young age. In the end, Successfully made cement and saved a lot of money for our poor family. For such a great contribution, I hereby reward 100 taels! This is my encouragement!"

"Me? Me?"

Xiao Si'er cheered wildly, ran up to the stage without waiting for anyone to urge him, the little eyes in the dark circles almost disappeared from laughing:

"Thank you son, thank you son!"

Bai Fu patted his head, "Keep going!"

"There is a third hero"

She continued:

"It's our mighty and extraordinary Uncle Bag. Under his careful care, the output of our fields has greatly increased. Whether we can live a prosperous life without worrying about food and drink next year depends on Uncle Bag! The same is 100 taels, Encouragement!"

Bug didn't expect that he was still there, he was dumbfounded when he heard the words, and finally, under the urging of Xiao Si'er, he went to the stage to accept the award with a blushing face and scratching his head.

"Xiaobai, you deserve it. In fact, you have contributed the most and worked the hardest. Your family doesn't have much money now."

Barger said naively.

"That's right." Bai Fu said to everyone with a smile, without any false modesty, "I have the greatest credit, and I admit it."

Her proud appearance made everyone laugh out loud.

Then Bai Fu changed the subject:
"But you are still working hard, and those who should be rewarded should still be rewarded. Not only the three of you, but no matter who you are in the future, as long as you make a big contribution to this family, you will be rewarded!"

"As for the fact that there is not much money"

She pretended to be helpless and said:

"You can't become fat if you eat even one bite. If you accumulate less, you will gain more. One day, I will become rich in vain."

Then he pointed to everyone and said impassionedly:

"You will also become rich heroes! Do you want this day to come soon?"

Little Si'er took the lead and shouted.

The others also responded with a smile, each louder than the other.

Satisfied, Bai Fu stepped down from the stage, "Okay, from now on, we will reward meritorious deeds at the end of every year, everyone keep working hard!"

"it is good!"

"We have to work hard!"

"Next year, I will definitely be the biggest hero of our family!"

"."

After a while, there was loud laughter in the small yard.

Bai Fu took the wine from Luo Jin and was about to drink it when he saw Mr. Fei and Ah Li standing at the entrance of the courtyard, put down the wine and walked over.

"Why are you here at this time?" She asked with a smile.

"The yard has been tidied up, and Xiaosi made a fuss about moving in today, saying that it's a busy place." Fei Yu also replied with a smile, "Sure enough, there was a lot of excitement as soon as I came here."

Bai Fu touched his nose in embarrassment——
Without Mr. Fei's deposit of 1 taels, she would not be able to generously reward the heroes. For some reason, it is a bit embarrassing for Mr. Fei to say that.

She clearly said it was a deposit, but in fact she has already spent almost all of it. At the end of the year, there are quite a lot of money that needs to be paid to various partners.

Especially for Old Carpenter Li, this year he built several large yards, a shop, and a large workshop for her, and the ones under construction all cost money.

Although she is confident that she will be able to pay back the money next year, .
Looking at the embarrassed woman in front of her, Fei Yu was still in a daze, and her mind was still on the high-spirited appearance on stage just now.

Quite a patriarch's style of rewarding meritorious deeds.

It turned out that this was the real her.

Bai Fu scratched the back of his head.

"Today is also a coincidence. We don't usually quarrel so much. It's just during the Chinese New Year or when there are happy events."

Mr. Fei is a scholar, and scholars like to be quiet. Bai Fu thought about not giving a bad impression of being noisy on the first day he moved in, so he explained it.

"No problem"

Mr. Fei seemed to see through her thoughts, "Xiao Si loves to be lively, and I'm not afraid of noise."

Bai Fu smiled and invited Mr. Fei into the house, but Mr. Fei refused to tidy up the room, left Xiaosi behind and took A Li with him.

As soon as Mr. Fei left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the voices of eating, drinking, talking and laughing became louder again.

"Xiao Si, you moved here so soon?" Xiao Liang looked excited, "In this way, you don't need Uncle Li to pick you up when you come to play in the future!"

Xiaosi squinted her hot milk tea, squinted her eyes and expressed satisfaction, "Not only have we moved here, but my father and I will stay here for the winter."

Xiaoliang was even happier.

"Great! Bagg and I decided to stay for the winter too!"

Barger looked helplessly at Xiao Liang--
It wasn't his decision, it was obviously the little patriarch who was playing tricks and didn't want to leave.

Three days later, the perfume shop and the coal shop that Bai Fu cooperated with Yunqi opened in the east and west of the city respectively.

One is called Xiang Jiao Yi, and the other is called Hei Gem.

Yun Qi said that it was time to find someone, Xiang Jiao Yi was suitable for opening in the morning, and Hei Gem was suitable for opening in the afternoon.

After the two shops were ready, she needed her final confirmation and acceptance. After she agreed, Yunqi let go and stopped tormenting the people working below.

The opening ceremony was attended by Yun Qi and Mr. Sun, Bai Fu did not attend, but only drank tea in the tea house by the window and watched the excitement for a while.

The two shops are not affiliated with Detian Pavilion. On the surface, the Tiger Roaring Escort Bureau is fully responsible. She is only the boss behind the scenes, and it is enough to sit in the back and make money.

Xiangjiaoyi currently focuses on peach blossom fragrance and sweet orange fragrance. There are many sweet orange fragrances in autumn. Da Ya and the others have made a lot in advance and sold them in exquisite small bottles.

They also tried it with orange meat, and found that it was not enough to make essential oil, so they made it into marmalade and sold it in Detian Pavilion, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

The fragrance of peach blossoms was sent by Taohuawu.

Bai Fu taught Ah Re to extract the essential oil of peach blossoms, and he made a lot of them in the spring. Ah Re asked Ah Shidu to send them to sell on consignment. Except for Xiangjiaoyi's operating expenses and commissions, the rest was Taohuawu's income.

Yunqi has no objection to this. After all, the preparation time of the shop is limited, and there are not many tricks that can be made in a short while. The peach blossom fragrance is really rare, and it attracts a lot of people in the shop.

Both of these are uncommon flavors in winter. They have the effect of nourishing the skin when applied, and the fragrance can make people feel refreshed. They are very popular among women.

The southwestern part of Daye Country is rich in flowers. Yunqi has asked the Southwest Branch of the Tiger Roaring Escort to discuss cooperation with flower farmers in advance, planning to collect a large number of flowers when the flowers bloom in the coming spring and produce more types of essential oils.

Unlike Xiangjiaoyi who greeted the noble ladies in the east district as soon as Xiangjiaoyi opened, after the firecrackers were set off in the black gemstone in the west district, people dispersed one after another after asking each other what kind of shop it was.

"Sure enough, as you expected, the coal business is not easy to do." Luo Jin said, looking at the sparse flow of people at the entrance of the black gem.

Mathematics also looked worried, and the small calculations in his heart were already shaking the sky.

"My lord, we don't have much cash in our account. If we don't sell the coal in time, I'm afraid we won't be able to turn around in the future."

Bai Fu played with the teacup with one hand, leaned on his chin with the other, and pondered for a while.

"The coal business is not in a hurry. If you can't sell it, you can use it yourself. At least you can save money on firewood this winter." Seeing that Mathematics looked anxious to her again, he quickly said:
"Don't worry, I still have good things on hand, which can last for a while when they are made into ink and sold."

Speaking of ink, this Luo Jin knew that he was the one who accompanied Bai Fu to talk about the ink workshop.

It was originally an old shop for making ink ingots. The shop was not big, and the craftsman had some friendship with his father.

The boss, surnamed Song, is a thin and honest old craftsman.

After listening to Bai Fu's description, the Song craftsman combined his own experience in making ink ingots to quickly make the finished ink, because it was much faster than making ink ingots because of the lack of complex processes such as one hundred thousand beating and drying.

No matter what material is used to make ink ingots, the key process is refining tobacco, followed by mixing materials, making, drying, and painting gold.

Bai Fu's ink has only two processes of refining tobacco and blending materials.

The method used to make tobacco is similar to other materials. Strictly control the heat to burn the raw materials, so that the black smoke produced by the raw materials will adhere to the inverted bowl above the raw materials, and finally sweep the ashes to collect them.

The mixing material is to simmer the gum with a slow fire, add auxiliary raw materials and spices, and fully stir it into a uniform liquid.

Since the specific formula is the secret recipe handed down from the Song craftsman, Bai Fu didn't ask too much, and only signed a cooperation agreement at the normal price——
She is responsible for providing raw materials, and craftsman Song is responsible for providing finished products as required.

Song craftsmen didn't know what those raw materials were, and they were a little disgusted at first, but when they made black ink that was as glossy as lacquer and black and introverted, they were amazed again and again, so they proposed to try to make some ink ingots. Ink sticks are more acceptable.

This Bai Fu has no objection, she wished for more tricks, but making a good ink ingot not only takes a long time, but also compares to waste materials.

Fifty kilograms of pine wood can only be smelted into two or three kilograms of pine smoke, and the smoke produced by oil is similar. The oil she brought back is used as ink
Well, because it is mixed with water, it can make a lot.

It is not enough to make ink sticks.

However, Bai Fu still gave him a can of oil to let him toss around casually in response to the expectant eyes of the Song craftsman.

"I took some ink to the college and asked my classmates to try it. They all thought it was good, but they still felt expensive when they heard the price."

"Are there any cheap ones for what I sell?"

Bai Fu was thinking about something, so he said this casually.

Luo Jin choked on math.

That's right, not to mention that the things in Detian Pavilion are extraordinarily expensive, even the newly opened Xiangjiaoyi, that small bottle of rare edition perfume costs more than ten taels of silver.

Even so, there were still a lot of people in the market, and it was sold out shortly after opening the door, which opened the eyes of the two big men.

It's still a woman's money to make money.

"Okay, leave this matter to me, and I'll figure out how to quickly make a name for myself."

The three of them talked for a while in the teahouse, and then they left to get busy.

Nowadays, no one in Detian Pavilion is idle. Seeing that Luo Jin has been busy studying and doing business in the shop recently, Bai Fu is not in the mood to recruit newcomers.

But Luo Jin said that he didn't think it would affect his studies, and it took time to cultivate newcomers, and he couldn't find a particularly suitable one as the Chinese New Year was approaching, so Bai Fu temporarily withdrew his thoughts.

After leaving the teahouse, Bai Fu didn't go home, and wandered alone in the street.

Walking to a high-end tea shop, she heard the storyteller inside telling the story of Tang Huhu. The voice sounded familiar, so she turned her feet and walked in.

This is a refreshment shop located in the East District, with luxurious decoration, and the people coming and going are very lively. At the moment, it is full of well-dressed, magnificent and rich masters.

Look at the storyteller again, heh, he really is an "old acquaintance"--
Mr Pi.

When the first book by Tang Huhu was published, she worried that she couldn't find a way to publicize it, so she stared at a few storytellers and lost the book and the reward without anyone noticing it.

This Mr. Pi was the first person to talk about her book with insight. Bai Fu was deeply impressed and grateful. Later, when the new book was released, he specially asked the shopkeeper of the Universal Bookstore to remember to send a copy to Mr. Pi before it was published.

It's just that when did Mr. Pi change his employer?
Bai Fu is too busy these days, and hasn't written a new story for a long time, so the storyteller is telling an old story, and the audience in the audience look a little listless.

Some are eating melon seeds, some are disgusted by the lack of tricks in dim sum, some are whispering, some are holding a small copper mirror to look at themselves, anyway, few of them are reading or listening to books.

Mr. Pi spoke dryly, but he was only moved by himself, and no one tipped as emotionally as before.

Seeing the appearance of the crowd, Bai Fu made up his mind.
