Xie Ling continued, "If you want to do business with me, just put your fingerprint on this piece of paper and we'll make it a joint-stock company."
Xie Ling explained for a long time what shares meant.
Even though she knew that these four families were honest and decent, Xie Ling still had to explain the rules clearly to avoid any disputes later.
Everyone nodded hurriedly.
Of course I followed suit! How could I not do it?
Xie Ling nodded, "Okay, I'll show you the prices of the fragrant soaps that I asked Qiuyue to investigate in the market yesterday."
Xie Ling took out an account book and read: "There are not many shops selling scented pancakes in Jincheng. Low-quality scented pancakes are 500 coins each, medium-quality scented pancakes are 1 tael each, and high-quality scented pancakes are 2 taels of silver each. This was the previous price.
As for now, even the lowest-quality soap has risen to two taels of silver each, and they have all been snapped up. I plan to set the price in the middle, do you think it’s okay?”
Everyone nodded.
Whatever Xie Ling says goes!
After briefly talking about the business strategy, it’s time to start production.
Every household contributed a portion of their capital to purchase raw materials.
Shi Shaowen, Qiuyue and Wu Zhengqing went to the street to buy pig pancreas and alkali powder.
The group visited all the pig slaughtering shops in Jincheng and bought ten pig pancreases.
Under Xie Ling's guidance, everyone rolled up their sleeves and got to work.
There were not enough people, so more people came from each household.
To make fragrant pancreas, you must first crush the pig pancreas. This step is the most difficult and labor-intensive.
Under the big tree, the only sound that could be heard was the crackling of wooden sticks.
The men crushed pig pancreas and the women fried lye powder, and everything went on in an orderly manner.
Xie Ling took people to the mountains to pick peach blossoms, plum blossoms, and peach blossoms to make spices and dyes.
When she came back, Xie Ling saw Gu Wei from afar.
He sat beside the stone table and joined the queue, rolling up his sleeves to reveal a strong forearm with a focused expression.
Wu Daqiang was also pounding it, with such force that it looked like he was not pounding a pig's pancreas, but rather hitting the enemy's head.
When Wu Daqiang's wife saw this, she slapped him on the head and cursed, "If you break the stone table later, let's see what you can do!"
Wu Daqiang reduced his strength awkwardly.
"Everyone, you must be tired. We made some food. Don't hesitate to eat it."
Pei and Yu Niang each carried a basket and gave each person a piece of cake.
Qiuyue also learned how to make sour plum soup from Xie Ling. She made a big bucket full of it and placed it under a tree. Anyone who was thirsty could scoop some up for themselves.
As soon as Xie Ling, Gao Wanhua and a group of other young ladies walked over, Qiuyue brought over several bowls of sour plum soup.
Xie Ling felt hot after walking all the way, so she drank the whole drink in one gulp.
The sour soup is icy and refreshing, it’s so comfortable.
"Miss, how about this sour plum soup I made?"
Xie Ling gave a thumbs up, "It tastes good. How did you make it so cold?"
Qiuyue pointed to the well not far away and said, "I'll hang the wooden barrel down and put it in the well to keep it cool."
Xie Ling praised: "Smart."
Gao Wanhua brought over a dustpan, and the young ladies picked the petals from the basket and spread them out.
Pear blossoms are pear blossoms, peach blossoms are peach blossoms. Looking at them, they are colorful and very beautiful.
It is estimated that these petals will not be dried until tomorrow, so Xie Ling plans to take out the spices from the space to use.
There were spices in this dynasty, but they were ridiculously expensive. After some consideration, everyone decided to make them themselves.
The pig pancreas was also pounded. Xie Ling took a piece to demonstrate, "Add alkali powder to the pounded pig pancreas, knead it while adding, until it becomes this sticky paste. The inferior fragrant pancreas will be just like this, and for the better ones, we can add various spices and dyes."
As he spoke, he took out seven or eight molds from the house. They were the most common round molds with tiny patterns around them, which were very delicate.
Not to mention those lotus-shaped, moon-shaped, mountain- and river-shaped ones, with intricate and vivid patterns, so beautiful.
This is the mooncake mold that Xie Ling collected during the zero-yuan shopping event at the end of the world. She didn't expect it to come in handy today.
She gave one to every household.
After a while, the sun set and all the soaps were made.
One pig pancreas can make about ten pieces of fragrant pancreas, and the final product is about a hundred pieces.
Spread them all out in the yard, dry them in the shade overnight, and you can take them to the morning market to sell them tomorrow morning.
The round mold used to make the lowest-grade fragrant soap has no other dyes or fragrances added and is pure white.
Medium and high-quality scented soaps are made with beautiful molds with delicate and vivid patterns. When you smell them carefully, you can smell a faint fragrance that is dazzling.
Before being exiled, each family was a large family and had naturally used scented soaps before, but no one had ever seen one so beautiful and exquisite!
I feel more accomplished when I think that I made such a beautiful soap myself.
Ru Jieer pointed at a piece of fragrant soap and said proudly, "Sister-in-law, this is what my brother and I made!"
Xie Ling looked at the piece of soap. There was a little bit of it missing from the edge, but fortunately it was of the lowest quality, so it was not a big deal.
It was estimated that the top-notch ones, Pei Shi did not dare to let them play, and said with a smile: "Ru Ru is great, Li Ge'er is also great!"
Children should be praised!
Praise is more lovely and healthier!
Looking at the sky filled with rosy clouds, Xie Ling suggested, "How about we have a barbecue?"
Everyone knows that Xie Ling’s food is delicious. Even though they don’t know what barbecue is, they will nod their approval as they can eat for free in a legitimate way.
But he didn't take advantage of me, as he just brought all the ingredients from his own home.
Xie Ling instructed Gu Wei to go to the bamboo forest and cut a bamboo to make a stick.
