Chapter 239 New Plan

Jiang Wan was very tempted, but she had a lot of work to do right now.

Oyster sauce still needs to be supplied, and squid shreds and fish fillets are still being made.

The snack shop over at Cangsu has opened, and now there is a large supply of squid shreds and fish fillets.

In addition to my aunt, Yinzhu's family has also built a few stoves.

If she were to start making coconut oil, she would be too busy to handle it.

Continue recruiting people in the village?

There is no technical content in making coconut oil, and it is easy for people to learn it.

No matter what he thought, it didn't make sense. Jiang Wan was holding the jar and frowning when he suddenly felt someone tap his shoulder.

"What are you thinking about? You just stayed in the kitchen after you came back and didn't even come to the pharmacy to tell me. If Baozhu hadn't told me that you were back, I would have thought you were still on the beach."

"Look, mother."

Jiang Wan pushed the coconut oil towards A Niang.

When Yin Huaixi heard it, her eyes immediately lit up.

This familiar smell must be coconut oil!

Yin Huaixi is not a rigid Chinese medicine practitioner. For example, she also learned some first aid techniques from Western medicine and some minor surgical procedures.

In her spare time, she also mixes some skin care products for herself, her daughter and her friends.

There are so many modern cosmetics and skincare products that are made with technology, such as whitening agents, fluorescent agents, preservatives, etc.

If you use those ingredients in cosmetics on your face or body for a long time, it will definitely be harmful.

So she mixes a lot of things by herself, such as lipsticks and creams.

Coconut oil is often used when she formulates skin care products.

It has mild medicinal properties and is a good product for skin care without adding anything else. Adding some small ingredients will make the effect more obvious.

She had never thought of making coconut oil after coming to the island for so long. Unexpectedly, her daughter had already made it.

"Wanwan, you are amazing. Our skin cream is almost used up. Do you need this bottle of coconut oil? If you are not in a hurry, give it to me to mix the skin cream."

"Take it, mother. It's easy to make. If I need it, I can buy some more coconuts."

The oil yield of coconut meat is very high. Five or six kilograms of coconut meat can produce one kilogram of oil. There are at least tens of thousands of kilograms of coconuts in the coconut forest. It is very easy to buy some and boil them into oil.

When Jiang Wan heard that her mother wanted to use the coconut oil to mix skin cream, she immediately gave it to her.

Every profession has its own expertise, and my mother is more adept at this aspect.

"Mother, do you think I can sell coconut oil?"

Yin Huaixi was stunned, and several thoughts flashed through his mind quickly.

"I remember that it's not difficult to make coconut oil yourself. It doesn't take as long to boil as oyster sauce. I'm afraid it's easy for people to learn it. There's nothing special about buying and selling coconut oil. If you want to do it, do it on a big scale."

"Bigger?"

"Well, for example, we can teach the villagers how to make coconut oil, and we will be responsible for the secondary processing and sell the products to the noble ladies in the city."

Throughout history, good skin care products have always been in great demand.

Especially in an island environment that is exposed to wind and sun all year round, skin care products made from coconut oil will definitely make the ladies' eyes light up.

A pound of coconut oil costs about fifteen cents, not counting labor and firewood. If you add some ingredients to mix it into skin care products, the cheapest cost is only about forty or fifty cents.

A high-efficiency skin care product that costs around fifty wen can be sold to the ladies of wealthy families in the city for a few hundred wen or even a few taels of silver.

"When it's done, we can cooperate with the merchant company to sell it to the other side. With Lord Qin behind us, ordinary people won't dare to mess around."

This is the benefit of having a good relationship with the government. It can help you use it as a shield when necessary.

Jiang Wan's heart was moved, and she carefully considered the feasibility of what A'niang said.

Indeed, all you have to do is buy coconut oil at home.

There are only so many coconut groves in the village. You have to contract one and pick all the coconuts yourself. After you pick them all, there will only be a few scattered ones left.

If you outsource it to others, they will find ways to buy coconuts in the surrounding area and you don't have to do anything yourself.

Can save a lot of effort.

Jiang Wan thought it was feasible.

However, she had to make sure that there was a market for the products before she could start mass production, so she had to ask her mother to make a few samples first.

"Auntie, I gave you the coconut oil. How about you prepare some samples first?"

Yin Huaixi looked at the door of the pharmacy and responded hesitantly.

"Okay, I'll go and adjust it for you later, Mom."

After a while?

Jiang Wan poked her head toward the pharmacy.

There is nothing wrong, why isn't my mother being proactive?

Yin Huaixi's ears blushed, and she went to look for the lid of the coconut oil bottle like a thief.

In the pharmacy, Anan stared at his uncle without blinking, with a flash of suspicion in his eyes.

Something must have happened when Master went to the hut to change Uncle Fuzi's bandages just now, otherwise Master wouldn't have suddenly gone to the kitchen as soon as he came out, and Uncle wouldn't have smiled foolishly from time to time.

"Uncle, what did you do just now?"

"Huh? I didn't do anything?"

Li Xiao looked innocent.

He really did nothing but stay by Fuzi's side and change the scarf on his forehead from time to time.

Just now...

Just now, when Doctor Yin came to change Fuzi's dressing, he accidentally stepped on his own foot. When he turned around in a hurry, the tray in his hand hit his eye.

then……

Thinking of that scene, Li Xiao's heart was filled with beauty.

I finally get the same treatment as Li Man!

Doctor Yin had just carefully examined her own eyes, and she was very close to her.

It is no exaggeration to say that I almost suffocated just now.

Unfortunately, Dr. Yin reacted too quickly and left soon after confirming that his eyes were fine.

Of course, no one would tell Anan about such things.

Anan is still young and she wouldn't understand even if I told her.

"Uncle, this is so strange..."

————————————————

The day passed quickly, and it was time for the mother and daughter to have a bedtime chat.

Jiang Wan held a jar and placed it on the table in the stone house, then opened it and poured out a few stones.

"Mother, look at these stones. They were given to me by the children in the village. Anan said there are many stones like this around their village."

Yin Huaixi picked up a stone and held it up to the light. Some of the stones were transparent and beautiful, while others were not transparent but glowed faintly under the light.

You can tell at first glance that this is no ordinary stone.

"It feels like there are minerals or gems in there..."

Yin Huaixi wasn't quite sure either. She didn't like jewelry and didn't know much about it.

"What do you want to do with these?"

"I want to ask, but I'm afraid of getting into trouble."

Jiang Wan gently put the pebbles back into the jar.

If these are gold or copper ores, or some kind of gemstones, will I be targeted if I ask myself?

Will it bring danger to the village?
