"I will start teaching how to make cans tomorrow, as well as candles, soaps, etc."
She asked, "You should have found some trustworthy people, right?"
Xiao Hanzheng nodded. "I have screened the people in several workshops several times. I will find an excuse to get rid of those spies when the time comes."
"Just teach the trustworthy people what to do. I will also have people keep an eye on them to prevent them from leaking the information."
"If the process can be separated, it is best to divide it into several groups of people to do their own work."
Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "Yeah, I think so too."
"By the way, you know some Qimen Dunjia, right? Taoist Changqing is quite good at this, you can talk to him more."
On the way here, Shi Qingluo came into contact with the Taoist priest and found that he was very wise and had no desire for power.
No wonder he no longer had the heart to help Prince Jin, and wanted to travel around and write a travelogue.
Xiao Hanzheng became interested, "Okay!"
After a while, he cooked two bowls of noodles and put poached eggs on them.
He brought two bowls of noodles to the table and said, "Madam, try the noodles I cooked."
Shi Qingluo took a look at the noodles. They looked good and smelled good too.
She stirred her bowl and took a sip.
Her eyes lit up, "Brother Zheng, the noodles you cooked taste really good."
My mother-in-law and sister-in-law are both good cooks. I didn’t expect that my husband is also good at cooking. He must have inherited the good genes.
Xiao Hanzheng liked being praised by his young wife, "As long as you like it, I'll cook it for you if you want to eat it in the future."
Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "Okay."
The two of them ate a bowl of noodles, then went outside for a walk holding hands. When they came back, it was already dawn.
Xiao's mother and Xiao Xiaomei were also very happy to see Shi Qingluo come back.
The two of them cooked porridge and steamed dumplings, and Shi Qingluo ate some as well.
After eating, he followed Xiao Hanzheng to the workshop built by the county government.
When they arrived, people working in the workshop were already there.
We are all hard-working people and are looking for work to do.
Shi Qingluo first took Xiao Hanzheng to find a few craftsmen.
Let them make a batch of clay pots and then make a wooden lid, both of which have spiral shapes that can be connected and tightened.
Add another layer of rubber ring inside the wooden cover to prevent air leakage.
These people given by the scumbag father were all skilled craftsmen, so what Shi Qingluo proposed was not difficult for them, so they quickly got the hang of it.
There has been no work to do recently, and instead of feeling relaxed and happy, they are somewhat nervous.
After all, whether or not they can be freed from slavery depends on their performance.
As for the canned food, we have to wait until a batch of jars and wooden lids are ready.
Therefore, Shi Qingluo went to the candle, soap and soap workshops again to teach the people selected by Xiao Hanzheng how to make them.
At the same time, the production process is divided into several steps. After a group of people learn each step, they will lead some people to do it.
Moreover, the people who perform each process are separated into different rooms.
Shi Qingluo also asked the carpenters to carve out a lot of carved molds.
Ordinary soaps without carvings are priced affordable so that most people can afford them.
Soaps and scented soaps with different carvings and shapes, and with different fragrances and materials, are priced in the medium to high range.
They also openly collect several kinds of fresh flowers that can be used to add fragrance and medicinal herbs that can be used to make medicated soap in the county town.
After two busy days, Shi Qingluo finally had some time to rest.
Then Zhuo Zheng came to the door.
He looked depressed and angry.
Shi Qingluo knew what was going on, but asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? Who made you angry?"
Shi Qingluo pretended to be surprised and asked, "How come the purse is missing?"
Zhuo Zheng replied, "Today, someone came to the county town to perform acrobatics, so I went in to take a look. But when I came out, I found that my purse and money bag were gone."
He was really depressed, because he was worried about leaving the banknotes and change in the inn, so he carried them with him.
There is a purse on the chest for silver bills, and a purse on the waist for small change.
Who would have thought that when I squeezed in to watch the acrobatics, they were gone when I came out. It was obvious that they had been robbed.
Because there were so many people around and he was squeezed many times, he didn't know who stole his purse and money bag.
It is not easy for his people to show up in public, so they either pretend to be merchants doing business, or they are secret guards protecting him.
It was extremely crowded at the time and he was pushed to the front, which resulted in his people not being able to discover who the thief was and catch him in time.
Shi Qingluo comforted him, "Places like this with a lot of people are most vulnerable to thieves."
"I'll ask my husband to send a bailiff to help you look for it."
Zhuo Zheng nodded, "Okay!"
That's all I can do.
But maybe losing the purse is a good thing.
He thought for a moment and looked at Shi Qingluo pitifully, "Sister, I lost my purse and I don't have money to stay at the inn."
"Please take me in for a while."
"I'm not living here for nothing. I'll help you with the work."
After hearing what he said, Shi Qingluo seemed to think for a while.
Then he said, "That's fine. You lost your wallet, and you have problems with food and shelter. I don't support idlers here. It's good for you to work to earn food and shelter, and it can also train yourself."
When Zhuo Zheng heard her agreement, he immediately smiled widely, "Yes, I also want to exercise myself."
Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "I have two jobs to do now."
"I'm going to a nearby village recently to teach the villagers how to raise bees and plant some medicinal herbs. It's hard work in the sun and wind, but it's also a good exercise."
"If you want to go, you can follow me and help. I will give you one or two taels of silver per month."
When Zhuo Zheng heard that he had to run to the village every day in the wind and sun, he thought it was too tiring and would even get him tanned.
When he heard that he only earned one or two taels of silver a month, he became even more unhappy.
He didn't really come here to suffer.
So I asked, “What about the second job?”
Shi Qingluo said: "The canning workshop, candle workshop and soap workshop are about to start operation, and we are in great need of manpower."
"If you are interested, you can go to these two workshops to help out."
"This doesn't require that much hard work, so the wages will be lower. I pay other people 500 wen a month, but I can pay you 600 wen. It's considered a preferential price."
"See which job you are interested in."
Zhuo Zheng: “…” Six hundred coins a month is used to feed beggars.
It would cost him more than six hundred coins to buy any small gadget.
However, although the money was little, it was what he wanted.
He seemed to be struggling for a while before he said, "Then why don't I go work in the workshop."
He further explained: "I will take the imperial examination in the future. If I get too tanned and can't recover, it won't be good."
When Shi Qingluo heard this, he knew that his young master was right.
She smiled and said, "That's right. You are a scholar. If you go out all day, you will look rough in the wind and sun. If you are able to take the imperial examination in the future, it will also affect your image."
She asked: "Then you can go to work in a workshop. Which workshop do you want to work in?"
