Chapter 603: Yan Family Workshop Opens
So on this day, the second branch of the Shao family left with their family.
Originally, she wanted to borrow the eldest wife's donkey cart, but Yan refused, saying that it would be difficult to look after so many people and it would be troublesome, and the eldest wife would need to use it frequently.
Mrs. Niu and Uncle Shao were in a good mood. Although they didn't quite agree with what Mrs. Yan said, they didn't want to argue with her that day, so they didn't say anything more.
Zhang said sarcastically, "Fourth brother's wife is really good to the eldest wife!"
Yan felt sickened by what she heard, and she retorted bluntly, "That's my eldest uncle and aunt's family. How much has the eldest branch helped our family in the past? Is there anything wrong with me being nice to them? Besides, I just don't want to trouble them. Is that also nice to them? I feel embarrassed just hearing this!"
Zhang was furious and turned away angrily.
Following Qiao Xuan's advice, the Yan family built a workshop on a piece of desolate gravel land with a gentle slope next to the village, and bought 20 acres of land at one time.
We hired people to dig and fill the land, making it flat. Now the workshop only covers about five or six acres.
When things go well in the future, business is booming and demand is exceeding supply, and we have sufficient funds, it won’t be too late to expand.
The opening ceremony was held in the workshop, but the tools and equipment were locked in the room tightly and no one was allowed to see them.
A ceremony was held, sweets such as candies and peanuts were distributed, gifts and congratulations were accepted from everyone, and then the guests who brought gifts were invited to the house for a meal.
Because the Yan family was very popular, many people came to congratulate them, and a total of eight tables were set up - the second branch of the Shao family alone occupied half of the tables, and a chef who was good at cooking in the village was hired to prepare the meals.
Mrs. Niu and Uncle Shao naturally also saw Shao Yunduan, and they were both very proud.
He showed off to Shao Yunduan, as if this soy product workshop was opened by his family.
Shao Yunduan thought it was better to mind his own business, so he just responded to their words casually.
He was not just talking nonsense. This workshop still had two cents of pure profit for himself! This benefit was real. Why should he argue with them?
As a result, Mrs. Niu and Uncle Shao became even more proud, as if their family would soon become very successful.
The funniest thing is that Niu actually asked Shao Yunduan how much gift money he had given.
"You are our nephew, a scholar, and your family is rich. Since you are here, the gift money can't be too shabby, right?"
Shao Yunduan nodded; "Yes."
Niu looked gossipy: "Really? How many have you sealed?"
Shao Yunduan: "My mother gave me the title. I don't know about that."
Niu: “.”
What a bummer!
Fang, humph, she curled her lips, Fang is such a petty person, how much can she be willing to give?
In fact, Shao Yunduan gave two taels of silver, which was very high.
When they sat down to eat, the old man of the Yan family invited Uncle Shao, Shao Yunduan and Shao Silang to the main table, and asked his two sons, their spouses and daughters-in-law to invite other guests to sit down.
When Zhang saw that Shao Erlang was not at the main table, she became upset again. Why could Shao Yunduan go to the main table but her man couldn't go?
So when the old lady of the Yan family came over to say polite words to Niu, Zhang half-seriously and half-jokingly said, "Mother-in-law, my Erlang and Silang are brothers, why don't they sit together? But Wulang, he is from our eldest uncle's family, after all, there is a floor between them, shouldn't he sit in the main seat?"
Niu was stunned, and then she realized that it was indeed the case.
