Chapter 70 My capsaicin can send him away

"That man kept talking about money all the way, and didn't introduce the shop at all. Ordinary people are afraid that the business will fail, so they will naturally praise their own shop for its advantages. So I was cautious, and I held my breath when he took out the incense pill.

If the poison could kill someone, he himself would not be safe and might not dare to use it. Besides, our people are following behind him and the coachman is not his accomplice. He would be afraid of making noise if he wanted to take action. There are two of us and he cannot subdue us both at the same time.

It was I who was eager for quick success and instant benefits and wanted to run the shop. I was indeed inconsiderate and made Your Majesty worry about the safety of the young men and women. It was my fault. Please calm down, Your Majesty. ”

Seeing that Su Qianqian was sincerely admitting her mistake but was not necessarily willing to change, Qin Hanzhang's eyes twitched. How could he be worried about the safety of those people?

They had learned martial arts from their father and brothers since they were young. Even if Qin Hanjue was going to study for the imperial examination, he was used to seeing his family members fighting, and no ordinary person would be able to defeat them. However, Su Qianqian was weak and powerless, and if something went wrong...

[If it wasn't for the purpose of proving his crime and capturing him safely, my capsaicin could have gotten rid of him...] Su Qianqian sneered in her heart. She didn't even have the chance to try out the power of capsaicin.

"Forget it, Qianqian meant well. Don't blame her for an unintentional mistake. But next time you go to the market, you must be accompanied by your elders!"

Old Madam Qin quickly came to the rescue and established a rule.

Qin siblings: Grandma, your rules are too obviously selfish...

Mrs. Qin: Mother is wise!

After dinner, Su Qianqian talked about several shops, and proposed a rice shop, a fruit and vegetable shop, a clothing shop, a restaurant, and a teahouse.

Su Qianqian analyzed the geographical locations of several shops one by one, finding those that were suitable for the people's livelihood and for the noble families in Xijing, because they were intended to accommodate the dependents of soldiers. These people would become the most powerful propaganda to prove that Wuning Marquis's Mansion was loyal to the emperor.

At the same time, restaurants and teahouses are also the best places to collect information. The Wuning Marquis's Mansion can send some spies there without anyone noticing, which is safer and more effective than trying to gather information everywhere.

Of course, Su Qianqian would not say the following words. Her explanation was all about benefiting the business and nothing else.

Qin Hanzhang and Old Madam Qin both thought it was a good idea, and decided that the matter should be decided by Su Qianqian. However, what Su Qianqian said afterwards left the Qin family dumbfounded.

"Start posting notices now. The servants of the Wuning Marquis's mansion will come forward and publicly recruit farmhands and embroiderers from farms and shops in the name of the emperor's sympathy for the families of soldiers and their families. Register them first, and then recruit them according to the poverty level of their families after their identities are verified.

At the same time, he asked people to collect livestock and poultry manure and send it to the six farms he bought, the more the better. ”

"What's the use of livestock and poultry manure?" Old Madam Qin was puzzled. Even if it was the farm in their house that needed fertilizer for the crops, the more the better. There was no need to go outside to collect it.

"These will be used as greenhouses in the future. In addition to building walls, they need to be filled with fermented manure to keep it warm. After collecting the manure, spread it out in the farm and turn it over to promote fermentation.

In addition, gum from various trees was needed, which could be purchased from the common people or harvested by farmhands in their spare time. A full basket of gum could be exchanged for one or two taels of silver...at least 600 baskets of gum were collected.

The rest of the needed items include dark coarse cloth and light gauze, as well as quilts and wooden basins. I will make a list and give the orders tomorrow. These must be done immediately. After we take over the farm in half a month, we will have to take off the adobe bricks and build a greenhouse.

As long as the cultivation of fresh fruits and vegetables in summer is successful, there will be a shortage of supply in winter, mainly because the cost of this greenhouse will not be too high. ”

Old Madam Qin knew about the greenhouse. The Marquis's Mansion had a greenhouse, but the greenhouse needed to burn charcoal, which cost a lot of money in one winter.

"Also, I read the Great Qi Customs and heard that Yanning Prefecture, which is only a hundred miles away, is rich in coke. It's cheap and has a fine black and shiny texture. If someone were to buy dozens of truckloads, it would be enough for this winter."

"Coal is usually used for blacksmithing, but it can also be used to build greenhouses?" Qin Hanjue asked, feeling that he had learned something new.

"What's the use of the books you read? You are not as knowledgeable as your third sister-in-law." Mrs. Du glanced at her son with disdain.

Qin Hanjue: Third sister-in-law, are you well-informed? This is clearly supernatural power suppression!

"Qianqian, did you learn all this from the books your mother left behind?" Old Madam Qin couldn't help but lean forward and ask.

Su Qianqian nodded calmly: "Yes, grandma."

"Qianqian, your mother's books are so useful. You must keep them well. I'm afraid that the library in the palace may not even have such books." Old Madam Qin was amazed.

"In that case, Han Jue, please write down what you just said. Han Yue and Han Jin must arrange it exactly tomorrow. If you have any questions, please ask your third sister-in-law." Qin Hanzhang made the final decision.

In the Marquis' Mansion, military orders are as heavy as mountains. The three brothers immediately stood up and received orders. This matter would be carried out in an orderly manner the next day. Su Qianqian didn't have to worry about so much. She was the technical director and could only make suggestions but not interfere in management.

And Su Qianqian also has her own little plan.

Back at Tinglan Courtyard, Su Qianqian saw that Su Mu felt a little guilty. After all, she had been unconscious for an hour, and now her legs were struggling to walk...

"Su Mu, here is a pill. Take it with warm water and your dizziness will feel much better." Su Qianqian quickly took out a pill that had both immunity-boosting and detoxifying functions and gave it to Su Mu as an apology and compensation.

"I dare not accept it. The lady's things are hard-earned. How can I use them?" Su Mu quickly pushed it back and refused.

"I give it to you because you deserve it. Don't talk about whether you deserve it or not in the future. You deserve it." Su Qianqian put the pill in Su Mu's hand, patted her shoulder and went into the inner room.

Su Mu stared at the pill in a daze and sniffed hard.

After changing clothes, Su Qianqian asked Su Mu to take out her dowry list. It looked so long that she wished she could write down every embroidery needle.

The farm only had two pieces of land, with no good farmland and not a large area. It hadn't made any money since it was handed over to her. At the end of every year, the head of the farm came to settle the accounts, and after deducting the taxes, there was nothing left.

Su Qianqian decided to put these to use and experiment with the vegetables she transplanted from the space in these two farms. If successful, she would sell them in her shop.

I have more than 2,000 taels of silver in my hand, so it should not be a problem to run the farm and the shop. The key is to arrange people I trust to run both the farm and the shop.

"I heard that Su Mu, Su Ye's brother and Su Zi's second brother can all read?" Su Qianqian asked casually.

"Yes, they are the sons of a marquis's family. In order to get a respectable job in the mansion, if the family is relatively well-off, they will send their sons to a private school so that they can recognize a few words and do accounting, which will make it easier for the master's family to use them in the future." Su Mu said as he put away the dowry list.

Su Qianqian had an idea in her mind. If she hired an accountant outside, she would have to investigate his background. If there were any available children in the mansion, they would be easier to control and would be more loyal.

After running all day, Su Qianqian felt a little tired. She went into the space to check the cultured microorganisms, then harvested the potatoes in the garden with the little boy worker, sowed tomato seeds, and then lay down to sleep.

In Qin Hanzhang's study, the guard Qin Shisan handed Qin Hanzhang a silver note and said, "I have asked, but I only know that it was a faceless woman who gave them money to do this business, but I don't know who it is."
