Chapter 988: Sunday

After all, at the beginning, she only regarded this as an experiment and didn't even think it would succeed.

Including the defective soaps, there are more than two thousand bars of soap in total.

Fu Jingyou and Chen Xiangdong took two trips and brought seven boxes home before they were done.

As soon as the soap was unloaded into the house, Chen Xiangdong asked:

"Are you still ordering outer packaging from the same suppliers as before?"

The boxes of soap we brought back were all bare and unpackaged.

The soap factory can also provide colored oil paper and paper box packaging according to market prices.

But since they have their own brand, the outer packaging must have their own logo.

Lu Miao nodded, but then said:

“There’s no rush for packaging for now.”

Chen Xiangdong shook his head, not quite understanding.

Lu Miao opened the box and picked out a piece of soap of several flavors.

During the production process, Lu Miao added a little pigment to make it easier to distinguish.

Like tea seed oil soap, it is light green.

Rose essential oil soap is light pink, and sandalwood essential oil soap is cream yellow.

Argan essential oil soap is milky white in color.

Lu Miao asked Fu Jingyou to find some oil paper to wrap them up. She wrote the names of the fragrances on the surface one by one and then handed them to Chen Xiangdong:

"First, send it to the supervisory inspection agency and the health and epidemic prevention department to produce a few reports to confirm that it meets the standards before we talk about packaging."

Chen Xiangdong took the item and said:

"Is it really that troublesome?"

Lu Miao said, "This isn't the small workshop days of the past. Furthermore, toiletries come into close contact with human skin. If they don't meet the standards, long-term use could cause problems... We can rest assured by issuing a few reports. If the market regulator comes to investigate, we'll have something to deal with."

Lu Miao thought for a moment and then said:

"From now on, relevant product reports will also be required."

Lu Miao can accomplish anything.

If you say you want to make soap, then the soap will be made.

Chen Xiangdong is now completely convinced by her.

It would be better to standardize it a little bit...

Chen Xiangdong nodded and asked the names of the two places where the tests were conducted.

They had little contact with each other in normal times, so he forgot about it as soon as Lu Miao finished speaking.

Lu Miao just wrote a note.

Fu Jingyou was at home, so he didn't let Chen Xiangdong go alone.

In order to save Chen Xiangdong the trouble of running later, seeing that it was still early, Fu Jingyou asked Chen Xiangdong to drive and he watched from the side.

The two people asked along the way and sent the things to the relevant agencies first.

The test report didn't come out so quickly, so Fu Jingyou and Chen Xiangdong went back first, planning to come back in a few days to follow up on the follow-up...

On the way home, I thought about the fact that I hadn't visited the yard on South Street for a few days.

Fu Jingyou asked Chen Xiangdong to turn around, and the two of them went to the Forbidden City again.

The courtyard is basically completed, and now only the new second floor is left.

The second-floor building has also been completed.

In the past few days, the construction team has been laying marble floors in the inner room and wooden raft floors on the outer rooftop in accordance with the requirements communicated by Lu Miao before.

Fu Jingyou walked up and down and looked around.

There was no problem with the bedroom and the dressing room that his wife specifically requested, but he made a few special points about the bathroom and toilet.

For example, the separation of dry and wet areas must be done well, and the wiring must be replaced.

Lu Miao had said many times before that if there is a large space, headlights should be installed.

Firstly, it caters to the decoration style, and secondly, it ensures the light.

Wires that are too thin cannot carry high voltage and may burn easily.

This side is decorated, and the wiring will be hidden in the wall later.

To avoid having to drill the wall later if problems arise, avoid it now if possible.

The foreman of the engineering team said:

"Okay, Mr. Fu, we'll solve this problem today or tomorrow!"

The trend of using terms like "Mr.", "Boss," etc., which was first started in Guangzhou, now seems to have spread to northern Beijing.

Fu Jingyou seemed to have gotten used to it. He nodded without showing any abnormality.

After going downstairs and taking a walk in the yard, he went back with Chen Xiangdong.

…

The courtyard has been almost completely renovated, but it's a bit empty.

Some unusable things in the house were carried to the small house in front.

Now all that’s missing is a lot of furniture.

Fu Jingyou told Lu Miao about this when he got home.

Lu Miao thought about it for a while and asked him to ask the engineering team when he was free.

Just like building materials, when it comes to purchasing and customizing furniture, there may be familiar manufacturers on the project side.

New home, new atmosphere. When I first returned to Beijing North after the exam, I didn’t have so many conditions.

So many things in my house are bought from scrap yards and modified and continued to be used.

Now that the situation at home has improved, it will definitely not be the same as before.

Not to mention being too grand, but everything should be done in a decent manner.

Having said that, the style of that courtyard is there.

How can furniture that matches and matches it not be grand?

Fu Jingyou kept Lu Miao's words in mind, and when he went there again next time, he asked for the news.

The engineering company has relevant cooperation with the neighboring Qingfeng County, the "hometown of woodworking".

Fu Jingyou asked the day before, and they brought the reference album the next day.

Fu Jingyou took the things back and looked at them with Lu Miao.

The couple discussed it together and selected several large pieces of solid pearwood for the main hall table, long lounge chairs, coffee table, etc.

For the others, I chose some that matched the decor style but also had a modern feel according to my preferences.

In Lu Miao's words, it is the new Chinese style.

I picked out about twenty items and calculated the total cost based on the marked prices, which came to 26,000 yuan.

Pearwood accounts for the majority, with several pieces accounting for 24,000 of the total.

Fortunately, the couple are capable and have saved some money in the past two years.

Excluding the renovation and decoration of the courtyard, there is still nearly 50,000 yuan in the account that can be directly diverted, otherwise it will not be enough to build it.

The ones that have been finalized for purchase are all for the hospital.

The small second floor that Lu Miao had built was partitioned off separately.

I'll have to ask the engineering team to measure the dimensions first, and then find the person who will liaise with us to make it custom.

These can be dealt with slowly later, there is no need to rush for now.

Time passed slowly and it was Sunday.

I caught up with Xie Fei and Gu Ying who were both resting.

Fu Jingyou had made an appointment with Xie Fei to go fishing earlier, so he got up early to prepare the fishing rod and bucket.

Before leaving, he sent Lu Miao and Gu Ying to the cultural center, and then came back to call Xie Fei.

Chen Xiangdong heard the noise again.

Chen Xiangdong is busy every day.

He used to be busy in the black market, and now he is busy running a company with Lu Miao.

After all this, it’s only now that people have begun to realize that they need to “rest”.

Seeing that Fu Jingyou and Xie Fei were going out fishing, Chen Xiangdong also said he wanted to go.

Fu Jingyou gave Xie Fei the spare fishhook he had bought earlier.

Since there was nothing ready at home, the three men rode their bikes to the department store to buy it.

On the other side, the cultural center.

Lu Miao doesn't have time to pick up Minmin every day.

After knowing that there was a dormitory at the cultural center, Lu Miao packed up his things and arranged for Minmin to live in the dormitory.

Cultural relic restoration is not an ordinary or easy job.

Other apprentices usually start by learning from the outer base of framing.

Minmin came up and faced the ancient painting directly.
