Chapter 305 Planning to go to the provincial capital
Le Zhengxiao even sent someone to bring a letter, briefly explaining the hot sales of the lipstick and asking her when she could get the stock. He wanted it no matter how much there was.
Qiao Xuan was not surprised at all that the lipstick would be so popular. She asked Shao Yunduan to write back to Le Zhengxiao, and he could send someone to pick up the goods in about 20 days, about 500 to 600 lipsticks.
He also said that a tea mountain had been found, and the tea leaves would be transplanted and planted at the end of this year and next spring, and there might be a small amount of tea in the autumn of next year, so he asked him to help find a tea roasting master.
Qiao Xuan smiled and said, "There will definitely be a small amount of tea next year. We can't move those old tea trees in the mountains, but we can go into the mountains to pick them when the time comes."
She has the ability of wood, so even if she transplants the tea tree, it will definitely survive. However, the old tea tree in the deep mountains has been growing in the mountains for so many years, why must she move it? The environment in the mountains is better, and the quality of the tea may also be better.
Shao Yunduan had no objection and nodded with a smile: "That's fine! By the way, how about telling him about your mushrooms?"
Shiitake mushrooms and black fungus have started to grow, and they grow very fast at this time of year. Although the number of white fungus is small, it is also growing well.
The number of wild Tremella fuciformis is indeed too small. Qiao Xuan no longer plans to look for it and will just use the existing ones to breed.
She smiled and said, "Well, let's ask him and remind him that we can buy it at the end of the year."
He added, "Speaking of which, once the construction of the tea mountain starts at the end of the year, we will be really short of manpower. Even with the help of Uncle Erzhu and the Zhou family, it won't be enough. Do you think we should consider hiring a few people?"
Shao Yunduan thought for a moment and said, "It's probably hard to find something that suits my taste in the county."
After all, the county town is a relatively small place, and human trafficking is rare. Many servants in wealthy families are hired under working contracts signed with rural families.
Unlike big cities, where there are many merchants and wealthy families, there are also many demands in this area.
There wasn't even a dedicated dental clinic in the county town, but there were people who did this part-time. If a dental clinic needed someone, they would let her know, and she would take time out to go to the dental clinic in the provincial capital to bring the person back, earning a commission.
Most importantly, Shao Yunduan was worried that if the news of their buying of people were heard by the Qiao couple, it might cause trouble.
Not everyone is so tight-lipped.
Qiao Xuan thought about it and realized that the county town was too small and many things could not be done to the satisfaction of people. Tsk, she was really arrogant and looked down on the county town!
With a thought in mind, Qiao Xuan said with a smile, "Husband, how about we go to the provincial capital? Write a letter to Master Le Zheng and tell him that next time he sends someone to pick up the lipstick, we can go with him. The provincial capital must be very lively, with a lot of goods. Let's see if there is anyone suitable to buy two and bring back some other things. Husband can also buy some books, visit the famous academy in the provincial capital, and exchange ideas with others, isn't that good?"
Shao Yunduan was stunned and actually quite tempted.
He himself felt that the discussions and exchanges in Minghua Academy were no longer of any use to him, but it was different in the provincial capital. There are always people better than you, so it would be nice to have some experience.
Maybe you will really gain something?
"Husband! Let's go!" Qiao Xuan shook his arm and acted like a spoiled child. "Anyway, you're going to take part in the provincial examination next year, so let's just go and scout out the way ahead of time."
