Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 213

Shopkeeper Feng said: "Sesame oil is expensive because the output of sesame is low, and the people who grow it are few, but the demand is large. Therefore, it is much more expensive." Ordinary rapeseed oil and sesame oil may cost about [-] yuan a catty, while sesame oil is about [-] yuan a catty. To fifty or sixty.

Xiuyao said with a smile: "Treasurer Feng, look, all the people we invited are our friends. The other business people are all sent by you. We are not here for business, they are mainly old friends. .”

Shopkeeper Feng praised her for being a human being, as she should be, and looked at Feng Haoran, seeing him nodding frequently, felt that it was right for him to come, at least he could learn from this little girl.After all, the fourth young master looked down on the family's business before, but what the old man meant was that he didn't like too many people in the family to go into official careers, and business is also necessary.The fourth young master doesn't like doing business, but recently he seems to be a little on the right track, and he will take the initiative to ask, and the second mistress asked him to teach the fourth young master, so naturally he would not refuse.

Everyone was busy, Liu Fei recorded and wrote documents to the clients respectively, and then Liu Sheng collected the deposit with a basket.

Xiuyao then got to know each other a little bit, and she found that farmers who run small businesses are different from specialized merchants. People who do small businesses during the slack period are not considered merchants, and specialized merchants wear different clothes from everyone else. , The shoes are black and the other white, and the clothes are also different.However, although the Feng family runs a shop, they are considered the largest merchants in the county, but because they are also big landlords, business is only a sideline business, and there is no restriction.

The main reason is that there are officials in the Feng family, so Xiuyao feels that if the family wants to have money and keep it, there must be someone in the family who is an official.

According to the statistics, a total of ten copies of fifty catties were sold, for a total of eight coins, and everyone paid loose money.

Shopkeeper Feng's family ordered six hundred catties, a total of 7000 and two hundred wen.

For these goods, they have to rush to work day and night, otherwise they will not be able to produce them years ago.

Xiuyao asked Lao Liutou to deliver the goods to those retail investors first, and tried to drive out the Feng family's goods in the past few days, and then asked Liu Sheng to send them there by boat.If the shopkeeper Feng opens up the market, then the restaurants and others will demand a lot of goods, and the Feng family will definitely make a lot of money.But Xiuyao wasn't greedy either. It would be too laborious and unsafe for them to sell in various parts of the county like that.I don't have any protection in my own home, if I just do that, I don't know how I will be eaten.In this way, at least the Feng family will be the backer. For the sake of profit, if something happens, the shopkeeper Feng will secretly block it.

Everyone made an order, packed vermicelli, and left one after another.Shopkeeper Feng talked with Xiuyao about the glove for a while, and when the chat was over, he also accompanied Feng Haoran to leave.Feng Haoran seemed to be full of ideas, and he invited Xiuyao: "Sister Yaoyao, when will you come to our house to play. My mother misses you very much."

Xiuyao smiled and said, "I'm so busy, I can only talk about it."

Feng Haoran did some calculations, "It's Chinese New Year, there is always time, so come with Mama Liu."

Xiuyao still smiled: "I'll tell my mother."

Shopkeeper Feng took Feng Haoran to say goodbye and drove away together. On the way, Shopkeeper Feng said: "Master, if you invite Yaoyao, you have to ask the second grandma to post a message to the Qin family. It's not acceptable to directly invite other girls. "

Feng Haoran was also regretful, "I'm a little confused."

Shopkeeper Feng gave him a teasing look, "It's okay, I look at her, I sometimes get confused. You said that such a little girl is so capable, hey, it would be great if it was my daughter."

Feng Haoran didn't know why, but blushed. He hurriedly turned his head and said, "It's fine if we do business with her. Uncle Wu, please take care of her, um, I mean..."

Shopkeeper Feng said with a smile: "Don't worry, young master, in our territory, no one can mess with them, I promise."

Feng Haoran smiled, then turned his head to look out the window, but his heart was beating violently.

After seeing off the guests, Xiuyao didn't have to rest, and had to work overtime to produce vermicelli.Xiuyao discussed with Lao Liutou, "Grandpa, someone is cutting firewood to burn charcoal in the outskirts of the city. I heard that there is still coal. Let's go and buy a few cars. It's better to burn charcoal in the house. Only firewood is not enough."

Old Liutou was also thinking about it, he said: "I think so too, let your brother Liu Sheng and Liu Fei go ask about it tomorrow, buy two boats and come back."

Xiuyao thought for a while and said, "Grandpa, let's buy coal, it's cheaper. I'll ask the third grandpa to help us make a drainage blower."

Xiuyao and Lao Liutou looked for the third grandfather overnight, but this time they did not take the book, but dictated their request to the third grandfather and asked the third grandfather to design.What Xiuyao means is to modify the bellows that everyone cooks on weekdays to make it bigger, and then use a crank to control the pushing and pulling of the hands. The crank is controlled by a water wheel, which is almost similar to a water hammer or a water wheel.

People who smelt iron use air bags if they have water drainage, but the air bags are easy to break, so a wooden bellows is better.Anyway, they are not smelting iron, and they don't need such a strong flame, as long as it is automatic, there is no need to keep pushing and pulling the bellows, which is also very tiring.

Shopkeeper Feng soon gave feedback on the information, and it sold very well in the big restaurant, and the old men and women in the family also liked it, and gave it as a gift to relatives and friends in the state capital, which received great praise.

Xiuyao took the opportunity to introduce vermicelli made of other materials, and asked her grandfather to collect mung beans from the mill to make a batch of mung bean vermicelli, which was also very popular among customers.

Xiuyao also asked Liu Sheng to send some noodles to the city, and he wanted to send some to Lang Zhong and the others so that Lang Zhong could taste it too.

He was busy that day, and the old Qin head suddenly brought Qin Ergui, Qin Sanshun, and Qin Chan. Instead of going to Lao Liu's house, they found the mill by themselves.Old Liu hurriedly went to receive them personally, greeted them, and invited them to drink tea and rest.

Old Qintou and Lao Liutou haven't seen each other for a few days, but because he and the old woman sent back Liu's dowry to comfort his wife, and successfully resolved the conflict with Liu's, it seems as if there was no unhappiness Same.So Lao Liutou also showed his favor first, and gave him new cooking utensils, a set of bowls and plates and a brand-new set of tea sets, and often asked Qin Ye to send something over.So Lao Qintou felt that Lao Liu's family was also embarrassed and no longer held grudges, and wanted to continue to make good friends with his family.

So Lao Qintou came in person, put down the two packs of snacks he brought, and said with a smile: "Brother Liu, you came so suddenly, I didn't say hello, I'm bothering you." Since the last time, they Never met.

Old Liutou was as natural as if nothing had happened before, "You can come, but you are a rare visitor, why bother? Let's go to our house, let your old sister-in-law cook two dishes, and we brothers have a good drink .”

Old Qin quickly refused: "Not busy, not busy, brother, I brought the second and third children here, I heard that your mill is too busy to take care of, so I will ask the children to come and help." Here, of course, Lao Liu's family is short of manpower, and even Qin Decai is here, so he hastened to send the second and third children.He didn't complain that Dafang didn't take his second and third brothers to make a fortune, after all, it was the mill of the father-in-law's family, and they couldn't control it.Then he would have the cheek to send it over by himself, and he didn't believe that Lao Liu's family would return it.

When Old Liutou heard it, he still laughed happily and said, "Yes, it's Chinese New Year, this mill really needs manpower, that's..."

Old Qintou saw Lao Liutou's distressed face, and immediately said: "It's okay, just take care of food and lodging, it doesn't matter if you don't have wages."

Old Liutou smiled and said: "Yes, why not? We are busy during the Chinese New Year, and there is basically not much work after the New Year. There is no need to hire people."

Old Qin said: "Isn't there still a fan workshop? That also needs people. It's not just looking for someone. It's not reliable to look for outsiders. It's better to be with your own family."

Old Liutou also said yes again and again, and took three glances at Qin Ergui. Although he was a little dazed when he saw Ergui, his eyes were firm and did not evade.That boy is his son, he looks a bit like Qin Ye.That Qin Sanshun, Lao Liutou commented secretly in his heart, he didn't like it a little bit, he looked a little slippery, and his eyes were full of calculations.Yaoyao said, this vermicelli should be kept secret now, and someone will do it in two years, it is better to keep it secret now and make more money.That is to find someone who is trustworthy, and the people he finds are all good, but this Qin Sanshun... Old Liutou is a little hesitant.

Seeing Lao Liutou's expression of hesitation, Lao Qintou said, "Brother, is it inconvenient?"

Old Liu shook his head and smiled, "It's not inconvenient, it's because there are too many people, so we can't use so many." He pointed to Qin Ergui and said, "It's heavy work, let Er Dada stay."

That is to say, return those two?Reluctant to give wages?Old Qintou was not happy, "Brother, how about this, I will leave these two for you to help, no wages."

Old Liutou hurriedly said: "It's not about wages, it's because we don't need so many people, and we don't have a place to live."

People have talked about this, but Old Qin wants to say that they only care about eating, and it seems that they are forcing people to go home, so he has no choice but to agree: "That's fine, then let the second child stay."

Old Liutou said that the salary is twenty, and everyone is like this.Although Old Qin thought it was too little, he was too embarrassed to haggle over the price, so he said it was right, after all, some things had to be done slowly.

Old Liu smiled and said, "Brother, it's time for you to take a break, and let the children worry about what they're doing."

Old Qin said: "Isn't my brother always busy with work?"

Lao Liutou laughed and asked his family to drink two cups. Lao Qintou saw that he had arranged for a son who would be able to make money this winter, so he was relieved, so he took Sanshun and Qin Chan to let Ergui go help.

Old Liu headed for his uncle to arrange work for Qin Ergui. After all, he was the second dada of the Qin family, so Liu Fei couldn't just let Liu Fei make such arrangements. If he didn't feel uncomfortable, it was better to find someone older so that he could talk to him.

Seeing her second uncle coming, Xiuyao was startled, "Er Dada, why are you here?"

Qin Ergui smiled and said, "Your grandfather asked me to help."

Xiuyao looked behind him again, "My Sandada and the others didn't come."

Qin Ergui said: "No, your grandfather didn't keep them, so he wanted me."

Xiuyao breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Qin Ergui: "Er Dada, this job is suitable for you. I, Sanda, are here, so I can't be lazy. Others will have opinions. Er Dada, you are capable, bear hardships, and don't be afraid Tired, don't be lazy, everyone will obey you."

Seeing Xiuyao complimenting him so much, Qin Ergui couldn't close his mouth with joy, "I'm just a handful of strength, nothing else, anyway, you just tell me what to do."

Xiuyao asked her second uncle to help make the face. In order to keep it secret, she separated each process, and the people in charge of the cooking were all members of the Liu family, and no outsiders were allowed to participate.The second uncle worked hard, he was not lazy, and he would not be as vain as the third uncle and wanted to steal his teacher or something, so Xiuyao and Lao Liutou felt relieved.

Two days later, Liu Yan came to the door. Seeing Xiuyao, he said: "Miss Qin, you have to sell such a good thing to me. When I sell pork, I can let others buy some."

Xiuyao now has a good impression of him, "I sent you a message, you are busy, I will save the vermicelli for you."

Liu Yan was a little flattered, "Thank you, thank you, I want a hundred catties for the brothers to try."

Xiuyao said: "Please find my brother Liu Fei over there to pick up the goods."

Liu Yan went there, and went back to the mill to buy two stones of fine noodles and put them back in a cart.

The making of vermicelli here has stepped into the norm, so Xiuyao asked her elder brother to take her home.Now Qin Ye doesn't need to work hard, he just takes care of running errands, delivering letters or shopping. He jokes that he is Xiuyao's driver, and he is extremely happy doing it.
