When Su Qingluan and Liu Yunniang walked into the house, the flying dust in their faces made Su Qingluan sneeze several times. At this moment, Liu Yunniang had already foresightedly handed one of the handkerchiefs to Su Qingluan.

Su Qingluan turned her head and saw that Liu Yunniang had already put on her "mask" and she was busy covering her mouth and nose. Then she thought: "Are the fruit jam pots covered?"

As she was about to rush to the other side to check, Liu Yunniang grabbed her waistband and pulled her back: "Just wait until you realize that the dust in the jam can be saved to grow crops!"

Su Qingluan: "..." Although she really wanted to refute, she had to admit that the other party left her speechless!

She thought for a moment and began to roll up her sleeves. "Now that we're making these jams in the house, we have to keep it spotless. It's okay to just keep the jams in the casserole with the lid on, but when we have to separate the batches and flavors and package them individually, if the house is really dusty, it's bound to get dusty."

A few days ago, the weather outside was clear and windless, and Su Qingluan had forgotten the impact of dust on the fruit jam.

Liu Yunniang twisted her waist back and forth to loosen her aching muscles, and said with some regret, "If I had known today's workload would be so heavy, I shouldn't have let nearly half of the people rest yesterday."

Su Qingluan comforted her, "Fortunately, everyone will be back at work tomorrow. If we can't finish today, we can continue tomorrow. Anyway, the weather is getting cooler now. As long as the jam doesn't freeze and doesn't affect the taste, it will greatly extend its shelf life."

In fact, Su Qingluan took advantage of the night temperatures approaching zero degrees Celsius these two days to find an opportunity to take out a small amount of jam and put it outdoors to observe any changes in taste.

She found that if the jam is simply frozen into a solid, it will be more delicate than ordinary liquid, showing a soft smoothie texture. However, once this "smoothie" melts, a large amount of liquid will seep out, and the broken pulp will settle at the bottom.

She had tasted it and found that although the melted liquid was still "juice", it did not have the sweet and sour taste of fresh juice. Instead, it seemed to have gone rancid, with an indescribable strange sour taste, and was no longer fresh and delicious.

So Su Qingluan knew that this jam was not afraid of being simply frozen, but was afraid of melting after being frozen, which would definitely be a disaster.

If the jam got frozen during transportation, it might expand and cause the outer porcelain bottle to crack. So compared to dust, Su Qingluan was more worried about the jam being frozen - this was a difficulty she had never encountered in previous transportation.

Although there were more than 20 people here today, there were too many small scattered items in Su Ji's shop, all of them were bottles and jars.

It takes some effort to clean these things spotlessly.

Even after Su Qingluan joined in the dust removal, it was still a little short of the requirement that "at least one layer of space for jam containers must be spotless."

What's more, the second floor has not been cleaned up.

Even so, today was basically pure physical labor, and I had to sweep and wipe the dust in most places several times.

When it was time to get off work at night, not to mention the workers, even people like Liu Yunniang who were relatively strong would lean against the pillar and not want to move at all.

"As of today, everyone will be paid double wages..." Su Qingluan announced weakly.

Under normal circumstances, no matter how tired they are, everyone always cheers when the processing fee is mentioned.

However, everyone was really exhausted today. Su Qingluan distributed the wages listlessly, and these people were also listless when receiving their wages.

After everyone left, Su Qingluan looked at Liu Yunniang and said, "At least you can help me, otherwise I will definitely be exhausted and lie down before leaving."

Liu Yunniang rubbed her shoulders and said, "Alright, we're just friends now. Just don't forget that you still owe me a meal and a snack."

Su Qingluan: ...Okay, let’s just settle the accounts clearly as sisters.

Because she was extremely tired during the day, Su Qingluan ate a few mouthfuls of dinner at night and lay on the bed like a dead dog. She didn't even have time to change her clothes. She kicked off her shoes, pulled up the quilt, and slept soundly.

Even though she went to bed early and hastily the day before, Su Qingluan almost got up late the next day.

Of course, she was the shopkeeper, so no one dared to say anything about her being late. However, Su Qingluan knew that today's work was more than yesterday's, so she hurriedly washed her face with cold water and didn't even have time to eat the breakfast prepared by Yang. She planned to go straight to the town to eat something.

Su Qingluan bought two sesame and lamb pies on the street and ate them while walking. By the time she got to the shop, she had almost finished the sesame pies.

Fortunately, Su Qingluan saved time for breakfast. Although she arrived late, at least she was not the last one and was not late.

Since most of the dirty and tiring work had been done yesterday, and there were twice as many people today as yesterday, Su Qingluan originally thought that the remaining work would be completed quickly today.

I never thought that although the bottles and jars that followed did not require much effort to move, they still needed to be wiped at least three times to ensure that the entire container, especially the inside, was free of dust.

The third time, the responsible people will check and wipe each other. If dust or other debris is found on the white cotton towel during the third wipe, fifty cents will be deducted from the person who was found to have problems. These fifty cents will not go into Su Qingluan's pocket, but will be given as a reward to the other party who was found to have problems.

Because of this, everyone checked very carefully. It was not because they wanted to earn the fine from their companion, but because they were afraid of having their wages deducted.

However, no one said that Su Qingluan's requirements were too strict. After all, it's always a good idea to be careful with the food you eat.

The most important thing is that Su Qingluan did not find excuses to deduct wages after picking up the workers at the airport, but asked everyone to supervise each other.

Originally, Su Qingluan was arranging everyone's work in an orderly manner, but she gradually discovered that there was something wrong with Wu Erman, who was doing odd jobs beside her today. Whether he had something to do or not, no matter what work he was doing, he always wanted to hang around the big pots containing fruit jam.

So she looked at him suspiciously for a few times, but found nothing wrong. However, when his gaze met hers, Wu Erman shrank his shoulders like a mouse seeing a cat and quickly avoided their gaze.

But Su Qingluan observed that he was still working, so there was nothing suspicious about his movements.

Just when Su Qingluan thought she was overthinking it, Liu Yunniang came over and pulled her into a corner. "I say, have you noticed that the shifty-looking guy next to you named Wu Erman is acting a little strangely today? There's something very wrong."

Su Qingluan narrowed her eyes when she heard this: If she was the only one who had this feeling, it might be an illusion. However, since Liu Yunniang, who has always been sensitive, also said so, it was very problematic.
