Chapter 482 Maple Creek Wine and Rouge
Du Chunhua shook her head: "No, can bees still be raised?"
"It's possible, but it will take some time. Let me ask for you and see if there's anyone who knows how to keep bees."
Du Lin came over at this time: “Mrs. Shen wants honey?”
"It's not that I want it, but it can help you add another industrial chain."
“What is the industrial chain?”
Wen Zhenyi smiled and said, "You have so many flowers planted here, what do the bees do?"
"Collecting honey!"
"You have so many flowers, so you need to raise bees to collect honey, right? Honey is so expensive!"
Du Lin was fully aware of this: "You want us to raise bees?"
"Yes, but beekeeping is not an easy task. I'll go back and find someone who knows how to keep bees, and then I'll ask him to teach you."
The people who came with him were a little hesitant: "Mrs. Shen, this bee sting is so painful!"
"You haven't done a good job of protecting yourself. If you had done a good job of protecting yourself, it wouldn't have been able to hurt you."
"That puts our minds at ease."
"Besides, I need beeswax. So beekeeping is a zero-cost business for you."
“Mrs. Shen, what do you want beeswax for?”
“Make something interesting, and you’ll know when it’s done.”
"Okay, we'll listen to you."
"Let's come one by one. I won't stay in the workshop for long. I need to recruit some people. If every family in your village is willing to come, each family can send one person."
"But I'm going to be frank with you: those who are dishonest and cunning won't come here. If you come, I'll fire you. Also, let me warn you all: don't tell anyone else what you've seen or learned. Once others know, your income will be reduced."
"If the profits are good, I will give a portion of the profits to the village. You can use it for village construction or distribute it to every household. It's up to you."
How could any of the villagers be unhappy?
Du Lin also asked the question that everyone was most concerned about: "Mrs. Shen, how much is your salary this month?"
"The average monthly salary is one tael of silver, the manager's is one tael and five cents, and the accountant's is different from yours."
The villagers clenched their hands happily and were so excited that they didn't know what to say.
Wen Zhenyi asked them to be quiet for a moment. "That's all for today. Anyone who wants to work here tomorrow should register with Village Chief Dulin and come together tomorrow. Also, bring back any dried flowers you've dried at home. I'll start collecting them."
"Okay, okay, thank you, Mrs. Shen."
The next day, Wen Zhenyi called the workers to make rouge, all of which were hand-ground from dried flowers.
The store didn't have that color, so she sent a message to Dazhuang, asking him to send over the soap in stock.
Du Chunhua has broadened her horizons and even made lip balms of different colors.
The lip balm comes in a variety of colors and does not feel uncomfortable when used on the lips.
Wen Zhenyi had nothing to do, so he used the things they made to put makeup on them, but due to limited tools, he could only put on simple light makeup.
But even so, everyone in the workshop was amazed.
Du Chunhua saw that the colors she chose were all different: "Mrs. Shen, why did you use different colors for us?"
"Haven't you noticed that each of us has a different skin tone? Choosing a color that suits your skin tone will achieve twice the result with half the effort."
"I see."
While Wen Zhenyi was waiting for the soap to be delivered, he taught them how to make perfume, perfumed lotion, lip balm, indigo, etc.
They have truly gained knowledge.
When the pancreas arrived, she asked them to make fragrant pancreas. The pancreas delivered had been processed and now needed to be processed again.
Floral essential oils, flower petals and other items are added to it, and then processed again to make the entire scented soap transparent so that you can see the flower petals mixed in it.
When you use it, it has a light floral fragrance that makes you addicted.
Du Chunhua and the others looked at the fragrant soap in their hands and were reluctant to take their eyes off it.
Wen Zhen generously gave each of them one piece, which made them very happy.
The children were not idle during this period. They helped their friends in the village pick flowers. Every day, they either got a cut on their clothes or a scratch on their bodies.
Wen Zhenyi and the others don’t care, as long as they are happy.
However, when it comes to learning to read, Chen Hanxing will not relax at all. He will force them to study and learn to read, and will not let them go out to play until they have learned.
Wen Zhenyi had taught everything she could, and she handed the management of the workshop to Du Chunhua: "Chunhua, I'll leave the workshop to you. Just send the products you make to me in Xinglin Village."
"Ma'am, don't worry."
Wen Zhenyi and his companions set off from Dujia Village, taking with them a lot of the things they had made. When they came, they brought horse-drawn and ox-drawn carts full of things.
When she returned, she also brought back items produced by the two workshops. When she arrived in An County, she also delivered items such as fragrant soap produced in Dujia Village to the Song family, the Wang family, and the Lei County Magistrate.
Song Yi looked at these things and raised his eyebrows: "These are just made?"
"Boss Song is interested again?"
"I'm interested in everything that comes out of your workshop now."
"There are not many now. If you want more, you may have to wait."
"When have you ever had more things in your workshop?"
"But I did hear that you're working on a food called ice cream."
"This is not easy to transport. It needs to be frozen throughout the journey."
"You found a metal cabinet, didn't you? This should be able to be transported."
"I can't guarantee that. You have to make sure there's ice on the road."
"I'll figure this out, but when can you supply it?"
"Boss Song, can't you just give me a break? I'm so busy every day that I can't spare any time."
"You are a capable person and you should do more work."
"Let me go back and take a look. I've been away for nearly three months. I still need to go to Hougang Village to check out the workshops there."
"Any news about Le Sheng?"
"I did receive news from Axiang a few days ago. He said he was doing well."
"When will you be back?"
"That's not what I said."
"If you have any extra products from Hougang Village, please send some over. I won't compete with that Lesheng guy for business. I'll sell them far away."
"Okay, let me go back and take a look. I don't know what the situation is right now."
"But I want a lot of your Fengxi wine. The alcohol content of this wine is suitable for the north."
"You can go to Fengxi Village and order as much as you want. Young Master Cheng doesn't have any business in the north, so you should be the only one with Fengxi wine."
