Cheng Guozhong smiled and said, "Girl Zhixin, have you decided how many large vats you want to buy? I think there should be at least fifty vinegar vats in total."

"I think fifty is not enough. I want to order a hundred first. If I wasn't worried about not having enough space, as I also need to put tools for making salt, I would like to order one hundred and fifty large jars." Xu Zhixin shook her head.

Cheng Guozhong wanted to ask if a hundred large vats might be too many, but when he thought about the hundreds of large vats he saw in the private vinegar and sauce factories in the city when he was a child, it was obvious that a hundred large vats were not many, so he took back the words that were about to come out of his mouth and nodded.

"I want to buy some more jars and cans. I'd like to buy ten of each. These don't require as many as the vats." Xu Zhixin said what she was thinking.

"Um."

The two chatted all the way and unknowingly arrived at the brigade where Liang Jinxiu's parents lived. Xu Zhixin calculated the time and found that the journey took about half an hour.

"The earthen kiln factory is at the end of the village. We'll be there in a few minutes." Cheng Guozhong pointed in the direction of the end of the village to Xu Zhixin.

Because it was afternoon, everyone in the village was working in the fields, so Cheng Guozhong and Xu Zhixin didn't meet anyone before they arrived at the earthen kiln factory.

"We're here. This is the earthen kiln factory!" A few minutes later, Cheng Guozhong drove to the end of the village and stopped in front of a row of thatched houses. He pointed to the row of thatched houses and showed Xu Zhixin a pile of things that had obviously just come out of the kiln not long ago in front of the thatched houses. There were also two kilns on the open space on the far right of the thatched houses.

This is the earthen kiln factory! Xu Zhixin's eyes flashed with surprise. It's too simple, not even a tile house.

But the things placed at the door look pretty good!

There are jars and pots placed at the doors of several thatched houses, and there is also a large vat placed at the door of one of the thatched houses. Although the styles are a bit old-fashioned, it can be seen that the quality is good and the craftsmanship is acceptable.

"Oh, isn't this Captain Cheng! What kind of wind is blowing today that brings you here... Oh, and brings a girl as beautiful as a fairy!" Suddenly, an old man with half-white hair came out of a thatched hut. He was surprised to see Cheng Guozhong, and noticed Xu Zhixin beside Cheng Guozhong, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"This is the new educated youth in our brigade, her name is Xu Zhixin. We are here this time because she is cooperating with our brigade to open a soy sauce and salt factory. In addition to producing salt, they also want to produce soy sauce and vinegar, so they need a lot of soy sauce and vinegar jars, as well as some jars and cans. I brought her to your place to buy them!"

After Cheng Guozhong introduced Xu Zhixin's identity to the old man, he explained his purpose.

Xu Zhixin's soy sauce and salt factory is affiliated with Cheng Guozhong's brigade, and she said there is no problem for her to cooperate with the brigade to open a soy sauce and salt factory.

"Zhixin, this Brother Zhou is the director of this earthen kiln factory." Cheng Guozhong immediately introduced the old man's identity to Xu Zhixin.

"Hello, Director Zhou!" Xu Zhixin gave a polite smile and bowed. She was very polite and made people feel good about her.

"You said that this little girl wants to cooperate with your brigade to open a soy sauce factory?! Is that true? You are not kidding, Captain Cheng." When Director Zhou heard Cheng Guozhong say that Xu Zhixin wanted to cooperate with their brigade to open a soy sauce factory, he was shocked and looked incredulous. He stared at Xu Zhixin and looked at her carefully, shaking his head as he looked at her.

No matter how you look at it, this little girl doesn't seem like she has the ability to cooperate with Cheng Guozhong and his team to open a soy sauce factory.
