Stir-fried Datang: The Strongest Daughter

Chapter 92 Elementary Soap
The villagers murmured for a while, and Yang Xiaoran saw that they had almost said something, so she pursed her lips, took out a few more pieces of paper, and said, "If everyone can abide by this agreement, the county lord will naturally not let everyone suffer. The labor contract is a labor contract, with four hours of work a day, six days off and one day off, and the wages are paid. If the working hours are exceeded, it will be calculated as overtime pay. If it is a festival, let everyone work and pay three times the wages.”

Everyone's eyes lit up.Straight girl thief!This county lord is so bold!Only four hours a day?There are still four days in January to rest at home, and still have money?If you do too much work, you will be paid extra?Triple the wages on that holiday?Straight girl thief!Who is still resting?We are not lazy, but we just can't find a way to make money.

Is this person here to save sentient beings?

Just when the villagers felt that the treatment was too good to be ignored, they heard the little man continue to say: "Besides, if someone is injured while working for me, I will pay for all the doctor's expenses. Four sets of clothes and four pairs of shoes are distributed throughout the year, and the wages will also be adjusted according to the price of rice, but you can rest assured that the minimum will not be less than 240 renminbi a month, and you will still manage three meals a day to ensure that there is meat every day, fellow villagers What do you think? This labor contract not only has to be signed by you, but I also have to sign and sign, it is a matter of mutual benefit, and the county lord asks you to do everything with your heart, keep your mouth shut, and not spread my workshop techniques to the outside world."

A sensation, a complete sensation!This county lord is really a Bodhisattva!I only saw the nobles oppressing the P people, but I have never seen the three chapters of the law between the nobles and the P people.

Think about this benefit again, straight mother thief!Don't talk about the one who eats the owner for a year, but give back so many things, there is nothing to say, so please invite the elders of each family to come over and sign together!
Soon, the little green village became lively.

The little brats yelled and ran home, spreading the news. In less than a moment, people from all over Zhuangzi poured in from all directions and stood in a dense crowd.Fortunately, there were quite a few people who followed Yang Xiaoran to Zhuangzi, among them there were many people who were fluent in literature and ink, and there were several tents who managed assets for Yang Xiaoran, plus Jin Gu, Cheng Bao's help, Bao Lin and a group of guards to maintain order, also In just an hour, everyone signed these contracts.

Seeing that the county lord did as she said, not only did he personally sign each contract, but he even took out his own county lord's gold seal and stamped it.This action made the villagers feel a warm feeling in their hearts. This county chief is an extraordinary person, and everyone will have a good life in the future.

Carefully fold up those few sheets of paper as if they were rare treasures, and keep them close to your body.For this group of people who have been impoverished for a long time, this is their new hope.

"Master, when shall we start work?"

The farmers who signed the painting were very active, and they took the initiative to ask: "I heard that the county lord said that he wants to build a workshop, is he going to build a new house?"

"It's natural. It's just that it's winter now, and it's freezing cold, so I'm afraid it will be a little troublesome. I just thought it's better to find a few empty houses and build them up first, and it won't be too late when the weather gets warmer next year."

"County lord, we Guanzhong men are the least afraid of suffering. What is this? There are more than 1000 people in the whole Zhuangzi, and there are still many people after washing and cooking. The county lord is waiting impatiently. We will leave tomorrow It’s a good day to find someone, and work here has started.”

Well, at this moment, these peasant uncles are more anxious than the Lord.Seeing their eagerness to try, Yang Xiaoran couldn't help but chuckled, "You fellow villagers have supported me so much, Yao Xiang would like to thank you in advance."

Medicinal fragrance?oh……

It turns out that the county chief's name is Yaoxiang!Sure enough, she is the daughter of an official family. This name is nice, much better than their family's Ahua, Xiaocaodi.

"The magistrate is very polite!"

Zhou Qing patted his chest and said: "The county lord treats us grassroots so well, and the grassroots are not ungrateful. As long as the county lord gives an order, work will start."

"Yes, yes, county lord, we have a lot of strength, as long as there is food to eat!" Wu Shan, the leader of the Wu family, saw Zhou Qing's active performance and became anxious, and immediately followed Zhou Qing's example. He patted his chest and yelled loudly.

"You vulgar people, why are you talking so loudly?! You don't restrain yourself in front of the nobleman, what should you do if you offend the nobleman?" Although Wang Wen, the head of the Wang family, has the word "wen" in his name, he is a human being. Not at all polite.Not to mention the big beard all over his face, his appearance is also somewhat fierce. He said that other people have a loud voice, but his own voice is louder than others.

Seeing these people like this, Yang Xiaoran couldn't help smiling, proper competition can increase everyone's enthusiasm, so there's no need to come out to stop them, let them make trouble.

It's just that I still have other things to do right now. Since everyone is so motivated, it's time for her to get ready.Since they are going to build a house, they definitely need blueprints.And her workshop is for perfume, alcohol, soap, and essential oils, so the house has to be divided into several parts.

The structure of a workshop like this does not need to be too complicated, as long as it is strong, it can imitate the factory buildings of later generations, and it is enough to be spacious and bright.So even if you are a novice, it is not too difficult to draw the blueprint, but the drawing is relatively simple, just to let the professionals understand what you mean, and then make corrections.

The construction of Xiaoqingshan is booming like this, and the people in Xiaoqingshan are immersed in a feeling of happiness this winter.It only took half a month for the workshop to be built with hundreds of men on their shoulders. On the day the workshop was completed, Yang Xiaoran invited everyone to rub it hard. Min repeatedly sighed, "Oh, this day is really beautiful, beautiful..."

There was still a lot of essential oil left over from making perfume before, and Yang Xiaoran kept some of it for making soap.It is winter now, and there are very few things that can be used as raw materials for perfume. It is foreseeable that in the coming spring, there will be very few things that can be produced by the new workshop, especially perfume.

Of course, it is also possible to make some low-grade soaps.The materials for this kind of thing are simple, as long as there are animal fat and alkali.She asked the villagers to bring the pigs into the water, not to satisfy her appetite, but to refine the fat.Anyway, it is used for washing clothes and cleaning, so there is no need to be so particular about it.

In the following days, everyone fully experienced the miraculous means of the county lord. One month later, seeing the end of the year was approaching, the saponification reaction of the first batch of more than 4000 pieces of soap was also completed.Yang Xiaoran bought some greased paper, had someone cut it into the same size, and wrapped pieces of soap.

As for the trademark...

It was done directly when making the soap mold, and the soap liquid was poured and printed on the soap.It is a chart showing a thousand birds flying together in Qingshan, and there are a few large characters on it, "Qingshan Laundry Soap", and the price is 10 cents.

This kind of soap is cheap and easy to make. As long as there are enough people, it can be produced in large quantities. After all, the technical content is very low, and there is nothing complicated. With an assembly line operation method, twenty women can complete hundreds of pieces of soap in one day. make.As for the price of 10 Wen for a piece of soap, Yang Xiaoran also calculated it carefully, maybe compared to 13 or 4 Wen for a bucket of rice, 10 Wen for a piece seems a bit cheating.

But considering the size of the soap is not small, and a piece can be used for a long time, I feel that the price of 10 cash is quite reasonable.Aside from all costs, a piece of soap can earn 3 Wen, which is an absolute conscience price.I believe that after everyone has seen the cleaning power of soap, as long as they are budget-conscious housewives, they will choose to buy one.

After all, washing clothes with plant ash is not very clean, and you have to rub it hard, which leads to the short service life of the clothes. You must know that in the Tang Dynasty, even in the Song Dynasty, where the commercial economy was extremely developed, clothes were ridiculously expensive. .With soap, you can easily wash your clothes. It doesn't wear your clothes too much, and it's simple and easy. Why not do it?
This time it was just testing the waters, and she didn't do much.Considering the consumption power of Chang'an City, she felt that the 4000 yuan soap could be sold for a while.He wrote a letter by himself and handed it to Yan Su, saying: "Uncle Yan, I will trouble you to go here this time, and hand this letter to Aniang and Auntie, saying that this soap is made for the princes, Grandpa naturally understands what to do. This soap is 10 cents a piece, and I have written down how to sell it on this piece of paper, so you can send these soaps to your home without delay, go early and return early!"

"Yes, big girl!"

Yang Xiaoran sent Yan Su to the entrance of the village, and the farmers also came out.These soaps are all made by their hands. Although only a small number of people can participate this time, everyone still finds it novel.And as the farmers on this village, each of them got a piece of soap as a reward.

Seeing that the county lord is about to send the soap they made to the capital for sale, for some reason, there is a trace of excitement and anxiety in his bones.I am looking forward to the success of the soap, but also worried that if the soap does not sell well, the county owner will blame me.

In this way, Yan Su, in the care of Yang Xiaoran and a group of farmers, took several carts of soap and brought about [-] people towards the capital.

I didn't dare to rest on the way, and finally arrived in Chang'an in the afternoon.As soon as he took out the waist card of Duke Lu's mansion, the soldiers at the gate let Yan Su in without even daring to fart.

Yan Su directed the people and escorted the car, and many people on the way cast curious eyes.What are these?Why is it still wrapped in oil paper?It's square and upright, and there's no reason to see it.There was that naughty child who simply followed behind to watch the fun.

Yan Su didn't drive the children away, he let them watch until they arrived at Shengyefang, the bear children saw that it was the place where the nobles lived, so they reluctantly left.

As soon as Yan Suren entered Shengyefang, he immediately alarmed several families.The girl from the Cheng family was forced to go to the fiefdom, which was a shame in the eyes of the Guanlong Group, letting a little girl bear their incompetence; but in the eyes of the aristocratic family, although it was not a complete victory, it was still an expression of anger.But after learning that the girls from Cheng's family are full of tricks and have no lower limit methods, they dare not relax their vigilance and keep an eye on the movement of Duke Lu's mansion all the time.

As soon as Yan Su entered Shengyefang, Cui Gan knew about it...
