Chapter 277 What to do with the samples?
Fu'an Village.
"Miss Xiao, our oranges won't go bad on the way, right?"
"Miss Xiao, the oranges won't be tampered with by someone, right?"
"Miss Xiao..."
Shi Lizheng kept saying worried words one after another. Ever since he sent away the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict and the first batch of tribute oranges, Shi Lizheng couldn't sleep every night. Sometimes he even had to go to the ancestral hall to check the imperial edict, for fear that this time it was an edict for tribute oranges, and next time it would be an edict for beheading.
"Don't worry, Shi Lizheng. We have done what we should do. As for the rest, we just have to do our best and leave the rest to fate." Xiao Jiuyue said comfortingly. On their side, from selecting each orange to packaging and delivering it to the carriage, the entire process was done by their own hands.
When Orange arrives in Shengjing, Jun Lie will not sit idly by!
"Miss Xiao, I still..." Shi Lizheng covered his chest, still feeling uneasy.
"Shi Lizheng, have you dug enough winter bamboo shoots? It seems the number of bamboo shoots at Fengchun Restaurant has increased recently." Xiao Jiuyue smiled and changed the subject, "The radishes and cabbages in the fields are almost done. Has Shi Lizheng discussed this with the villagers? Do you want to make sauerkraut?"
"Don't worry, Miss Xiao, everyone in our village has gone to dig winter bamboo shoots." When Shi Lizheng mentioned winter bamboo shoots, the beard around his mouth couldn't help but curl up. Not to mention the tribute oranges, just look at the winter bamboo shoots in the village. If you have experience, you can dig seventy or eighty kilograms in a day!
You can make a lot of money just by digging winter bamboo shoots!
"I have already discussed with the villagers. As long as Miss Xiao wants it, we can keep some for ourselves and everyone can make sauerkraut together." Shi Lizheng asked hesitantly, "By the way, Miss Xiao, there are several families who want to make their own sauerkraut."
"The same dish, when prepared differently, will taste different. The same goes for sauerkraut. If you don't want to sell it to a workshop, you can make your own."
Shi Lizheng breathed a sigh of relief the moment Xiao Jiuyue finished speaking, but the next moment, he realized he had relaxed too soon. Xiao Jiuyue continued, "However, if the sauerkraut you've stockpiled isn't acidic enough, or if it goes bad, I won't accept it if you want to sell it later!"
The sauerkraut produced in the workshop is all made according to her requirements. No matter from the perspective of hygiene or taste, the sauerkraut produced is perfect!
"Miss Xiao, I'll go tell everyone now." Shi Lizheng immediately understood the interests involved. After he left the Xiao family, he immediately went to take care of the cabbage matter.
Since he was busy with other things, Shi Lizheng could only think about Orange when he lay in bed at night.
"We have grown so many cabbages with Miss Xiao. If we don't sell them to her, you can either let them rot in the fields or exchange them for money. It's your choice." Shi Lizheng was too lazy to say anything more. If he had to say this, he might as well go to the fields to pick cabbages and radishes!
They planted ten acres of cabbage and radishes, and if they only eat them themselves, they won’t be able to finish them until next year!
"Shi Lizheng is too timid. The young lady has told him so many times, but he is still worried." Luo Kui muttered. Her young lady is already busy, and now she has to comfort others?
"It's normal for them to worry." Xiao Jiuyue knew it very well. Just like when she started her own business and began to deliver the first batch of goods, she was so worried that she couldn't sleep all night.
"Miss, there is good news from Fengchunlou." Lianxin came with the good news. Looking at the familiar box, Xiao Jiuyue knew that Fengchunlou in Hongdu was developing very well now.
"Miss, the box is a lot heavier than last time." Lianxin carefully held the box in front of Xiao Jiuyue.
"Well, if it's heavier, you won't be able to hold it." Xiao Jiuyue said jokingly, opening the box. The number was doubled than before, a thick stack of silver bills. She was happy and excited at the beginning, but now she has become numb.
Xiao Jiuyue closed the box and said, "Tell everyone, this month everyone's monthly salary will be doubled."
"Miss, you are such a kind person!" Luo Kui jumped up with joy when she heard that the monthly allowance had doubled. She counted on her fingers and said, "No, Miss, this month the oranges became tribute oranges, so the monthly allowance doubled. Now it's doubled again?"
"What? You think the money is too much?" Xiao Jiuyue raised an eyebrow and said, "The sauerkraut and radishes you all saved up this time have done a great service. I'll give everyone a little more money to make everyone happy."
Xiao Jiuyue is very generous to his own people. As long as everyone works hard, they will earn more and more money in the future.
"Leave half of the silver and send the rest to mother." Xiao Jiuyue kept half of the silver and gave the rest to his beautiful mother Su to manage.
"Didn't I give you a hundred taels of silver for sugarcane and brown sugar a few days ago?" Su was stunned when she saw the silver sent by Xiao Jiuyue.
"This is the restaurant's dividend!"
Xiao Jiuyue smiled and said, "Mom, I thought you were used to it a long time ago."
Most of the money she earned was given to Su for safekeeping.
"This, this money you have can make more money than the shop in Shengjing." Su looked at the silver note in her hand. There was sugarcane in the workshop. She didn't know how Xiao Jiuyue did it, but at least the workshop didn't have to buy sugar from outside!
The workshop can even make money by selling sugar!
"Haha, Mom, you will make more money in the future."
Xiao Jiuyue was full of confidence and chatted with Su. Zhiyun Tower, Embroidery Workshop, and Candy Shop sold canned oranges, canned yellow peaches, canned lychees and the like, as well as brown sugar, pickled cabbage and pickled radish in the workshop. The money coming in from each item was increasing.
Xiao Jiuyue was in a happy mood when she left the Su family. The Xiao family's business was booming. Even the silk flowers and paper flowers made by Xiao Tingwu and He Lian were not selling in large quantities, and they were never enough to sell every time.
A few days ago, Xiao Tingwu came to her and wanted to recruit some people to work with them!
The weather was getting colder, and Aisan's polo bottles were delivered one after another. The cans in the workshop were easier to stack than before.
"Miss."
"Miss Xiao."
As soon as Xiao Jiuyue arrived at the embroidery workshop, everyone greeted her warmly. You know, the monthly wages of the Xiao family's servants had doubled, and the monthly wages of the workers like them had also doubled!
After more than half a year of operation, the embroidery workshop is now in good shape, especially the clothes hanging on the racks, one by one, making her feel as if she is in a clothing store. Every piece of clothing, from the color matching to the embroidery, is the result of everyone's hard work.
For every piece of clothing that the embroidery workshop has ever made, a sample will be kept. Over time, there are so many ready-made clothes here that they can no longer be displayed.
"Miss, what should we do with these clothes?" Aunt Lan said immediately when she saw Xiao Jiuyue, "Fortunately, Ai Qiushi made a lot of racks so we can hang the clothes one by one. But after a long time, there will be no more space."
