Chapter 100
Speaking of this, it is another thing to be happy about.

Jiang Yang beamed and said: "A manager heard that our family has a dry goods processing workshop, so he asked us if we sold dried bamboo shoots, and said he wanted to take a batch of dried bamboo shoots to send to Zhijiang. I thought, that's a good relationship." Ah, isn't this the time to harvest winter bamboo shoots? Our family has a workshop, who else can make a large number of dried bamboo shoots besides our family?"

Jiang Yun and the others hurriedly asked, "Did you agree?"

Jiang Yang waved his hand and said: "Then how can I just accept it casually, if it doesn't work, it will damage my reputation."

Don't look at him now as just a stall selling dry goods at the pier, but he is also well-known on the pier.

Not only because he is lively and can talk to anyone.It is also because his dry goods are not only of good quality, but also at a fair price, and the scales are also sufficient.

Otherwise, there would be no manager who would ask him to order a large amount of dried bamboo shoots without even seeing the goods.

However, Jiang Yang didn't dare to respond casually, because they had never sold dried bamboo shoots before, so they didn't know the price, so they couldn't make a random price.Secondly, although he had dealt with the manager several times, he was not familiar with him, so he had to inquire carefully.

So I bought a scooter and inquired with the people on the pier, which delayed my return.

"The result?" Everyone looked at Jiang Yang expectantly.

"The result is of course—this business can be done!" Jiang Yang said excitedly, "I have inquired about it. In the past, nearby villagers often brought their own dried bamboo shoots to sell at this wharf. From ten to sixty pennies."

Everyone exclaimed "Wow" when they heard it.

Jiang Yun recalled: "Last year, my grandfather dug up ten catties of bamboo shoots and made more than three catties of dried bamboo shoots. Wouldn't that be able to sell for two hundred coins?!"

Jiang Yang nodded, "There are many bamboo forests in the mountains, and there are more bamboo shoots than mountain fungi."

Jiang Yun suddenly felt that copper coins were falling from the sky, and couldn't help grinning for a while.

……

Since we are going to make dried bamboo shoots, the first step is to collect fresh bamboo shoots.

In the past, they dug up fresh bamboo shoots and sold them in the town, and they sold them for about a penny per catty.

Although dried bamboo shoots can sell for fifty or sixty renminbi nowadays, fresh bamboo shoots are worth about fifteen renminbi.But among them, they have to hire people to come to the processing workshop to make fresh bamboo shoots into dried bamboo shoots. They also need a lot of firewood, and then they need to spend money to transport and sell the goods.

After a few discussions, the final price was three pennies for the fresh bamboo shoots.

If you go to other villages to collect, then depending on the distance, you can collect it at a price of one and a half to two and a half cents, after all, receiving goods also costs money.

Now there are 25 people in the transportation team alone. Jiang Yang didn't deliberately hide the dried bamboo shoots. Instead, he summoned his subordinates to explain the pricing, and the villagers naturally knew about it.

As soon as the news came out, the villagers repeatedly lamented Jiang Yang's ability and kindness.

As a result, with Lingkou Village as the center, nearby mountain villages started digging winter bamboo shoots one after another.

Among them, the villagers of Lingkou Village were the busiest, because the men went to the mountains to dig bamboo shoots in large numbers, and the workshops received a large amount of bamboo shoots, and invited women from various families to shell, cut and cook the bamboo shoots...

If the weather is good, it will be dried in the yard of the workshop, and if the weather is bad, it will be dried in the drying room.

These all require manpower.

It's just that dried bamboo shoots are not as good as mountain mushrooms, and it takes two or three days to dry them, which consumes a lot of firewood.In desperation, they could only collect firewood from the villagers.

Old man Jiang looked at the busy scene in the workshop, and didn't know whether to be happy or sigh.

He sold firewood every day, but he didn't expect to spend money to buy firewood one day.

Just thinking about it, I heard Mrs. Zhou shout: "Old man, someone has brought firewood, you go and pay the bill."

"Hey." The old man Jiang responded, and went to pay the bill with the copper coins in his arms.

Due to the non-stop operation of the workshop, Zhou Qiao, who just took over the workshop, suddenly became flustered. Fortunately, Liu Su helped her and taught her during the day, and Jiang Yueshui and Jiang Yueshan helped her at night. up.

Mrs. Zhou took her two daughters to help and oversee the work in the workshop.

This is the first big order that the workshop has received. If it is not done well, wouldn't it be self-destructing?
Therefore, she has very strict requirements, not only the size and thickness of the dried bamboo shoots, but also the cooking time, drying time, and drying time.

There are also some hygienic requirements such as no nails, neat clothes, and washing hands under her supervision before each work, which is naturally ignored.

And when everyone was busy, Jiang Yun was not idle.

The reason why she didn't go to the workshop to help is because her shiitake mushrooms are ready to grow!

In order to let the shiitake mushrooms grow smoothly, Jiang Yun has to go to the plantation several times a day.

In the morning, cover the shiitake mushrooms with light-transmitting oil paper to keep them warm, go to school, come back at noon to check the humidity and water them, and put away the oil paper to cool down at night.

At the same time, I have to make experimental records and complete systematic courses, and I am busy without stopping for a moment.

When the first batch of shiitake mushrooms needed to be harvested, it coincided with the day when Mr. Su went to ring the bell for a doctor's visit, and the school was on holiday.

Seeing that the dry goods workshop was still busy, Jiang Yun calculated his own money and decided to invite his classmates to pick them at a salary of five cents per person.

Because of the good weather, the picked shiitake mushrooms were directly hung in the yard to dry.

When Mrs. Zhou and the others came back, they were shocked to see the shiitake mushrooms drying in the yard and were speechless for a long time.

Mrs. Zhou was the first to react and asked, "You collected the mushrooms by yourself?"

Jiang Yun shook his head, "Students, please accept, five pennies per person."

Hearing that it was only five Wen, Mrs. Zhou breathed a sigh of relief. Compared with the daily wage of twenty Wen per person in the workshop, five Wen is indeed not much.

The main reason is that they really can't spare a hand to help her.

Now even Jiang Yue has no one to take care of her, so Zhang Liang's younger sister Zhang Shan can only take care of her.

But fortunately, all the busyness is worth it.

After half a month, nearly two hundred catties of dried bamboo shoots were dried in the sun, and more than 500 catties of dried bamboo shoots were dried in the drying room.

During the period, wild mountain mushrooms collected were processed interspersedly, and there were more than 500 catties.

……

Early in the morning, the transportation team headed by Jiang Yang and Zhang Liang weighed and checked the goods one by one again, and bid farewell to everyone after confirming that they were correct.

"Okay, let's all go back. If this trip goes well, we will be back tomorrow." Jiang Yang waved.

Old man Jiang couldn't help worrying and said: "Have you made an agreement with the manager, don't go back and find no one, where are you going to sell so many dried bamboo shoots?" This trip will cost a lot of money, if you can't collect Wouldn't it be a big loss to come back.

Although he has said it several times, Jiang Yang still said patiently: "Don't worry, the steward belongs to the Jin family, a well-known big family in Fujian Province, and he won't miss it. He told me that as long as there is something to deliver Go, you can go to the pier to find the Jin family's boat at any time, and someone will notify him."

Only then did Old Man Jiang feel relieved, and wanted to give some more advice. Mrs. Zhou waved her hand and said, "Okay, let's go quickly. If you don't go, the sun will come out, and it will be too late when we reach the pier."

However, when Jiang Yun and Jiang Yang waved goodbye, in the space, Jin Ba reminded: "There is someone hiding behind the courtyard wall of the workshop."
