Chapter 67 A Plan Comes to Mind
The food safety testing business was only started last year, and Mu Chenze had never been exposed to it before.
Chu Xuan had come into contact with him in his previous life.
Her grilled fish fillet workshop pays attention to hygiene and uses carefully selected ingredients. The fish fillets are sterilized at high temperature and contain salt. If stored properly, there is absolutely no risk of excessive biological contamination.
"I have confidence in our grilled fish fillets!"
There was a firmness in his tone, and Mu Chenze inexplicably believed it and stopped worrying.
When they arrived in town, they got off the bus one after another.
When they were alone, Chu Xuan spoke again, "Mu Chenze, I heard you talking to the rickshaw driver in the county town about typhoons and reinforcements..."
Before she could finish, Mu Chenze took the initiative to explain, "Doesn't my mother make money by killing fish at your house? She's worried that your two adobe houses won't be able to withstand the typhoon, so she asked me to go to the county town to inquire about Mr. Liu, a craftsman who specializes in reinforcing houses."
Chu Xuan didn't expect Qin Mahua to be so thoughtful. "I'll have to thank Aunt Qin when I get back. Actually, there's no need to reinforce it. It was just repaired last month."
"My mother has seen the condition of your adobe house. Even if it survived this year's typhoon, it won't be able to withstand next year's. For your and Xiaofeng's safety, we need to either reinforce it or tear it down and build a new house. You are now the God of Wealth in our family, and we can't let anything happen to you."
When Chu Xuan heard this, he recalled the two adobe houses in his previous life, which indeed collapsed the next year.
I have to admire Qin Mahua's foresight.
"My family's demolition of our adobe house to build a new one will delay the supply of grilled fish fillets. As for reinforcing it, there's really no rush. The construction team leader personally assured me that we could definitely withstand the typhoon this year, but I can't guarantee that for next year. Let's stop here. Don't ask Carpenter Liu anymore. It's really going to be fine!"
Having said that, Mu Chenze felt embarrassed to meddle in other people's business.
But there was one thing he had to do.
Find Bai Xiaotian and ask him to go to Chu Xuan's house immediately to collect fish heads, fish skins, etc.
The yard must be kept as clean and tidy as possible.
Bai Xiaotian actually collected it before the staff from the testing station came to his door.
The fish liver, fish head and fish skin together sold for 21 yuan.
Coincidentally, Ji Ping delivered the fish early this afternoon, and all the fish had been processed, marinated, and moved into the kitchen.
Chu Xuan took Widow Niu and the others to carefully sprinkle wood ash in the yard to remove the odor, and then washed the yard.
When a male employee from the testing station came to the door, he saw a tidy yard and smelled the aroma of grilled fish fillets.
The first impression is good.
After entering the kitchen, I saw that everyone was wearing hats, masks and gloves, which gave me a better impression.
Before taking the sample and leaving, he half-jokingly and half-seriously said to Chu Xuan, "If your grilled fish fillets pass the test, we'll give them out every holiday!"
In addition to expressing his gratitude, Chu Xuan also enthusiastically presented a bag of grilled fish fillets weighing about five pounds.
He refused to take anything.
Chu Xuan couldn't persuade him and could only watch him leave.
Miao Dacui looked worried. "He didn't accept any gifts, so he won't give us an unqualified report, right?"
Gao Meijuan glared at her daughter-in-law, "How can you talk like that! That's what we call decent!"
Chu Xuan didn't take this matter to heart. If she didn't want to accept it, then she didn't. Who knows, people might only dare to eat her grilled fish fillets after the test results came out.
After dinner, Chu Xuan and Chu Feng took the apprenticeship gifts and went to Accountant Wen’s house.
At first, Accountant Wen thought the gifts were too expensive and refused to accept them all. He insisted on returning a portion of each gift.
Chu Xuan insisted that good things come in pairs, so Accountant Wen accepted it.
After formally becoming apprentices, Chu Feng stayed to learn how to use an abacus, while Chu Xuan left first.
I returned home, took two bottles of white wine and a bag of grilled fish fillets, and went to Grandpa Wang's house.
Only Grandpa Wang and Wang Shasha are at home.
Wang Mingchen went out to sea and will not be back today, so Gao Meijuan and Miao Dacui are grilling fish fillets at Chu Xuan's house.
After Wang Shasha made a bowl of honey water for Chu Xuan, she tactfully returned to her bedroom, leaving space for Wang Depin and Chu Xuan to talk.
Wang Depin invited Chu Xuan to drink honey water.
Chu Xuan smiled faintly. "No rush to drink, let's talk business first. Grandpa Wang, does the village collective have any idea of opening a grilled fish fillet factory? If so, I would like to pass on the grilled fish fillet recipe and production method to the village. That way, the village collective can help the villagers become rich together..."
Gao Meijuan had mentioned this matter to Wang Depin before. Wang Depin thought that Chu Xuan would not come to talk about this matter until next year at the latest, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.
"Xiao Xuan, that's the secret to your wealth. Do you really want to give it to the village collective so soon? Or wait until you earn more money!"
“I’m not providing the recipe and production method for free, I’m offering a profit.”
"Actually, your grandmother Gao told me about this, and I've considered it in advance. I have no problem giving you a dividend, but the most I can get you is 10% of the net profit. Compared to your current income, it's really nothing."
"That's not certain. Once sales increase, I'll earn even more than I do now. Besides grilling fish fillets, we can also grill other fish products. However, if we want to expand our grilled fish fillet factory, we need to have a strict management system. We have to take into account hygiene conditions, supply, sales, etc...."
Chu Xuan and Wang Depin talked for two hours. Wang Depin asked Chu Xuan to go back and wait patiently for news, as this matter had to be discussed in a village collective meeting.
Allocating land, building factories and warehouses are not trivial matters.
When Chu Xuan returned home, Mu Chenze and his family's cart were already in the yard.
Still loaded with 300 kilograms.
Chu Xuan reminded him as he saw him off, "We need to transport over a thousand pounds of grilled fish fillets tomorrow night, and Brother Lin's car won't be able to hold it all..."
"It can bloom, because I don't plan to buy deep-sea fish in the early morning of the day after tomorrow. I just want to earn the dividends from grilled fish fillets."
"In this case, you will earn a lot less."
"Don't worry! I won't lose money. I plan to discuss it with Hou Mingliang tomorrow and send him a thousand kilograms of grilled fish fillets at dawn the day after tomorrow."
"Will he agree?"
"Typhoon season is coming soon, he should agree. Otherwise, the grilled fish fillets will be out of stock."
Chu Xuan couldn't help but praise, "You're awesome!"
Mu Chenze blushed, "Wait until I succeed and get the payment before you praise me!"
Pull the cart away.
Chu Xuan stared at his back and couldn't help but think of how he'd made so much money in his past life, and how she, as his wife, had never once praised him. It was all because Feng Chunhua had told her that it was a man's job to earn money and support the family, and that women should enjoy the good life...
Being away from Feng Chunhua in this life has helped me understand a lot of things.
Women can also earn money to support the family!
Go back to the kitchen and count the amount of grilled fish fillets.
After counting, I calculated in my mind that there were still 1,500 kilograms of stock at home. If I baked another 600 to 700 kilograms tomorrow, it would be enough to supply the day after tomorrow.
Just then, Accountant Wen brought Chu Feng back.
It was already late and Accountant Wen did not enter the courtyard.
This scene happened to be seen by Chu Zhi who was passing by.
After returning home, he exaggerated the story of Accountant Wen visiting Chu Xuan's house and told Feng Chunhua the story.
Accountant Wen is in his thirties. His wife died a few years ago, so he is single now.
Feng Chunhua came up with a plan...
