"This is a good thing." She is currently in need of manpower. If someone can help her train the servants, she will not have to worry about anything in the future.
This matter needs to be carefully considered. It is not easy to ask a scholar, especially when he is right in front of you. "Forget it today. You can accompany me tomorrow."
Three carts went out, and three more returned loaded with quilts. The servants all came to help, and the quilts they made were all brand new, high-quality cotton quilts. It was a delight to look at. Chunxiao asked all the courtyards that needed quilts to come and get them, and the rest were moved back to the main courtyard's warehouse.
Originally, they were going to visit the people in Yard No. 4 the next day, but early the next morning, the people in the yard came to her on their own initiative, which was a bit strange.
"But is there any inconvenience in living here?" Chunxiao was discussing the planning of the farm with Xingfu in the yard. Seeing these people coming, she asked Xingfu to bring them stools. "Sorry, there are not enough stools in the yard. Please squeeze in and sit."
"We were embarrassed. We live very well now. Very well. Thank you for your care."
It looked like they had chosen a representative to speak, which was fine. "I was planning to visit you today, but I didn't expect you to come. You must be here for something, right? Sit down and talk."
"Hey hey." Several people were sitting together, and some people were standing behind and smiling at her.
"Boss, I heard your farm specializes in growing cotton. Yesterday, our people who went out said they brought back a lot of quilts. We wanted to ask if you would sell them. Cotton is hard to buy outside right now. The quilts we brought are too thin, and I'm afraid they won't be enough to last us through the winter."
"Excuse me, everyone. We prepared the quilts yesterday for another farm and we are not selling them."
Everyone was disappointed. It was already this month, so naturally all the cotton had been sold.
Chunxiao looked at everyone, then looked at Xingfu, "How much cotton do we have left from the harvest?"
"We donated 1,000 kilograms last time, and we still have more than 2,000 kilograms left."
She looked at the surprised crowd and said, "I don't have any quilts, but I do have some cotton left. If you need it, it's okay to buy some."
"Yes, yes, sir, how much do you want for this cotton?"
"I sell it to merchants at a base price of 130 wen per jin. If you want it, it's still the same price," she pointed at Xingfu, "if you want it, ask her to weigh it for you."
Several people were overjoyed, "Thank you, boss, thank you, boss." This was much cheaper than the price outside, and they could make two more thick mattresses.
The people who came gathered around happiness again.
"Don't worry, everyone. The cotton is in the warehouse in Yard No. 1. I'll come over and weigh it for you later."
