Chapter 325 Hiring Xiao Zhuzhu
Pei Yu pulled the corners of his lips weakly and said, "Okay, Uncle Pei is Uncle Pei."
Zhuzhu twisted her little head to look left and right, but couldn't find a small wooden stick in the snow, so she asked Al to borrow an arrow.
She giggled and sat in a horse stance with her chubby little body, then with a serious face, she took the arrow and started to write and draw in the snow.
"Hello Uncle Pei" five neatly written characters were written on the snow, stroke by stroke.
Don’t mention it, although this handwriting is not elegant and lively, nor does it have the style of a great master, but when copying a book, you need this kind of handwriting with every stroke being neat and understandable.
Pei Yu smiled, and even the three words "Uncle Pei" on the ground looked like flowers.
"Okay, it's you, Zhuzhu. Can you help your uncle? Oh no, can you do me a favor?"
Pei Yu squatted down to be level with Xiao Zhuzhu, looking at her with sparkling eyes.
Zhuzhu's face flushed, and she nodded happily, "Sure, Uncle Pei, what do you want me to do for you? How long will it take? I'll charge you on time."
When talking about the issue of spirit coins, the cute little face of little girl Zhuzhu looked very serious.
Pei Yu's smiling face froze. Why, why is there no one who regards money as dirt!
However, seeing the cute little girl, and the other little ones around her who had no adults to take care of them, Pei Yu couldn't bear to let Xiao Zhuzhu work for nothing.
He restrained his emotions and tried to look serious. "I need to hire you to help me copy a book from the library. After you finish copying, I will give you three hundred, no, eight hundred spirit coins. What do you think?"
Oops, he couldn't resist the little beauty's eye attack and raised the price again.
But the beautiful girl Zhuzhu did not agree decisively. Instead, she asked him seriously about the name, thickness, and approximate number of words in the book, and asked Pei Yu to provide work props, pens, and notebooks before the deal was finalized.
For a young kid like him, you can say he is very serious about doing business.
"That's great, that's great, Zhuzhu is going to earn spirit coins." The little kids happily surrounded Zhuzhu and shouted, looking at her eagerly, they were so envious.
Little Zhuzhu puffed out her chest proudly. "My mom said knowledge is power. Look, I can earn spirit coins with my knowledge now, so you should study hard too."
The kids all clenched their fists and nodded their heads seriously, "Yes, Zhuzhu is right, we must study hard to earn spirit coins."
Looking at this group of little guys, Pei Yu smiled like an auntie.
"Uncle Pei, Uncle Pei, do you have any other books that need copying? I can write too." Al tugged at the corner of his clothes and asked with a serious and handsome face.
"Ah," Pei Yu scratched his head, smiling with difficulty, "I, I only remember this book, I haven't had time to read the others."
It was thrown out so suddenly that he had no time to read other books.
Al lowered his head in disappointment. "Okay, then Uncle Pei, if you need any books copied in the future, just come to me. I have plenty of time, and my handwriting is beautiful too."
"Okay, okay." Pei Yu nodded happily and agreed. That's right, he was going to do great things in the future, so he wouldn't have so much time to copy books. Hiring child laborers to copy books was a good option.
After making an agreement with Al, Pei Yu thought about the tragic fact that he was thrown out. In order to prevent these energetic and loud little brats from violating the library rules and being thrown out crying, he took a minute to emphasize to them the importance of keeping quiet in the library.
The little ones, who had been self-reliant for many days, were very sensible. They immediately covered their mouths and said that they would definitely obey the rules and be good children. Pei Yu was slightly relieved and watched them go in.
Yun Qimu, Wu Xingyu and others who were lingering in the library originally planned to set out to enter the Demon Refining Pot today, but they forgot the time while reading, and it was already evening when they came out of the library.
"How about we go to Louwailou after dinner? Fighting monsters after dinner is also a good digestive exercise."
Of course, the others agreed with Yun Qimu's suggestion. They stuffed the borrowed books into the space button and walked happily towards Louwailou.
Yun Qimu took Wu Xingyu to his own cabin, picked up Yun Xiaoyu and Yun's father, and gave Yun Xiaoyu the library card he had applied for, asking him to go to the library to read more often.
Business at Louwailou isn't very good tonight, as the dishes listed on the menu are all relatively expensive.
Orchid Belly Silk/45 Spirit Coins
Beggar Chicken/45 Spirit Coins
Orchid Crab Roe Braised Bamboo Shoots/55 Spirit Coins
Wenchang Chicken/45 Spirit Coins
One dish can be equivalent to several breakfasts at Louwailou. There are still too few rich people in the village, so apart from the two tables of Yunqimu and his friends, there are only the two brothers Mingmu and Mingxiao.
Ming Mu has been working very hard in the pharmacy workshop these days. After getting the formula of red medicine and plant culture solution given by Yun Qimu, he immersed himself in research in the alchemy room and spent some effort to successfully prepare these two medicines.
The red medicine he mixed is better than the red medicine sold in the mall, but still not as good as the big red medicine. He has been experimenting and improving it while mixing it these days.
As for the price of the red medicine he prepared in batches, it was determined based on the efficacy, and was between the red medicine and the big red medicine. Each bottle was sold for 15 spirit coins.
The price is quite fair, at least Ming Mu thinks so.
The effects of these red medicines are many times better than the healing potions he had prepared before, but the price is not even half of what he sold before. Village Chief Yun is truly a conscientious businessman.
However, if the price is not enough, the quantity will make up for it. In the past few days, the villagers in the village have started a craze for red medicine. Every time the red medicine is put on the shelves, it is snapped up and sold out in less than three seconds. Therefore, Ming Mu, who has a 40% profit, also made a lot of money.
Later, the supply could not meet the demand, so Ming Mu also brought Ming Xiao, who was also interested in potions, in to configure them together. The speed increased again, and the two brothers naturally received more dividends.
Both brothers are people who know how to enjoy life, so except for Ming Xiao occasionally cooking, they eat at Louwailou all the time.
Today, Louwailou also has the orchid crab roe braised bamboo shoots that Mingxiao likes to eat. The two brothers naturally wouldn’t miss it. After finishing their work in the alchemy workshop, they came over to order the dishes.
When he met Yun Qimu, Ming Mu came over with a smile on his face and reported to her about the alchemy workshop.
Yun Qimu watched Ming Mu dawdle in the same spot after finishing his report, his handsome face full of confusion. She curiously asked, "Is there anything else?"
