Chapter 56: Could it be a shady shop?
It was rainy and every corner of the house was damp.
Jiusu sighed, "It's cool, but it affects my sleep quality. Huh, prepare the carriage, I'm going to the shop."
Remove the fermented wine.
New wines were also moved into the space.
Jiang Nianyin took the list and said happily, "Susu, we've already produced 15 liters of wine, which is far more than planned. We estimate we can produce 70 liters this month! We're also producing other fruit juices."
Seeing this, Jiusu said helplessly.
"Actually, we can make it so quickly because we used a secret recipe, but we're running low on the secret recipe powder. I'm afraid the fermentation time will have to be extended, about half a month. As the weather gets colder, it might have to be extended accordingly. But it doesn't matter. In a few days, I'll expand production and form a complete assembly line. By then, you'll all be seniors."
Ma Hu put on disposable gloves and said with a smile: "As a servant, I can actually become a senior. I am really lucky."
“…”
Jiusu found Jiang Jing and asked, "Should we write a letter to tell Boss Du that wine production has reached a large scale. Thirty liters is too little, and sixty liters is even possible."
Jiang Jing shook his head and suggested.
"Wine won't go bad if it's stored properly. A business shouldn't be run without capital. You can keep excess wine as inventory. If there's a problem with the production line later, you can take it out to fill the gap. It's a long-term strategy, one step at a time."
Jiusu responded, "That's it. By the way, it's been humid these days. This is limestone. Put it in the corner to remove moisture."
Boom boom boom.
Jiusu immediately stood up and quietly walked to the gate of the courtyard. Jiang Jing followed her and signaled her not to speak.
"Who?" His voice was dull and full of vigilance.
The man outside the door was obviously startled. He looked at the address in his hand, confirmed it, and muttered, "That's right." He said loudly, "Oh, my last name is Du. I'm here on my father's orders to look for Miss Jiu. Excuse me, is this the address?"
Du? That's Boss Du.
Jiusu opened the door and said, "Mr. Du, please come in."
Du Chenchen smiled politely and greeted him politely. Seeing Jiang Jing lock the door, he looked up and looked around. No, this couldn't be a black shop, could it? Why was he so afraid of seeing people?
Jiang Jing's thin lips curled up slightly.
"We are not an illegal workshop. Scarcity makes things valuable, so we are afraid of being targeted. Mr. Du, you can come and look around at will. It is clean and hygienic, and we will keep it absolutely confidential. Please." He stretched out his hand, motioning Du Chenchen to follow him.
"Yes, we are doing our duty." Jiusu thumbed up and followed obediently, interjecting from time to time.
Du Chenchen looked at everyone with smiles on their faces, holding things he had never seen before. They were indeed very clean. He walked around the warehouse again, tasted the wine, and said happily, "My father once said that only those who take wine seriously can make good wine."
"Mr. Du, please come in and have some tea."
"Mr. Jiang, Miss Jiu, please."
Jiang Jing, who was once a nobleman in Shengjing, was well-read and had mingled in official circles. He talked with Du Chenchen and soon became obsessed with her.
After a while, Du Chenchen started talking about business.
"I've received the wine that Miss Jiu sent. Father has already sent the news to Lingcheng. It's spread all over Gan County, and many people are lining up to order wine from the Du family. This time, I came to discuss with the young lady that the prefect wants a new wine as a gift. The money doesn't matter, as long as it's valuable and beautiful."
Jiusu asked, "Master Du wants to use wine?"
Du Chenchen said expectantly, "Yes, if possible, the sooner the better. My father said that all the reward money earned can be given to Miss Jiu. The main thing is that the person who gave the gift to the prefect must be a high-ranking official. This way, the sales channel in Shengjing will be opened up."
Originally, they planned to sell the wine to Shengjing.
This is just in advance.
Jiusu responded, "I do have some ready-made wine. I'll prepare a nice bottle and gift box. Mr. Du, please wait for me for a moment."
Jiusu went to the warehouse alone, entered the system, and selected a gift box of wine.
[Gift Box x2, Copper Leaf-198]
"Hiss, it's more expensive than wine, but it's worth it to expand sales."
The wine bottle was wrapped in golden satin, and the wine box was tied with a rope. She tied a bow and put it in a purple gift bag. From a distance, she could hear the content of their conversation, which was nothing but ancient books, which Jiusu did not understand.
She put the gift box on the table.
"Master Du, take a look?"
"Wow." Du Chenchen's round eyes lit up again and again. "So luxurious! So beautiful! Where did Miss Jiu get this thing? If wine comes in a gift box, wouldn't it be very expensive?"
Jiusu said: "I get it occasionally, so it's quite expensive. The gift box is currently several hundred coins, mainly because the quantity is small."
How could it not be expensive? This item can only be purchased in the system's store. The leaves are not easy to obtain. They can only be converted into silver through "worshiping the God of Wealth" and rewards, which is quite difficult to get.
Du Chenchen clasped his fists and said, "Then I will hurry to Lingcheng and give this to the prefect. If you ask about the gift box, I will tell you that it is quite rare and there are only ten of them in total."
"Let's also bring a set for the prefect." Jiusu thought for a moment and made another set. "Give one set away and keep one for yourself. This is also our sincerity."
Looking at the dust raised by the horse's hooves.
Jiusu shook his head. "He came and went in a hurry. I hope everything goes well for him."
Jiang Jing's eyes flashed with a faint light. Seeing that it was raining again, he hurriedly pulled her under the eaves and went to find an umbrella. He ignored the raindrops falling on his back, but was afraid of getting wet in the rain for too long, so he subconsciously quickened his pace.
Looking at her worried expression.
He said pertinently.
"Mr. Du is quick-witted, modest, and prudent, and his speech and behavior are appropriate. This trip will surely be smooth sailing."
Today's task has exceeded the target again.
Jiusu was shocked. He distributed the raspberry juice to several people and asked someone to deliver the samples to Boss Du.
"Get off work! We're out of raw materials, so we'll have a day off tomorrow."
In front of the Jiang family's door.
Bai Luoxue stood there for a full half hour. When she heard the sound of a carriage, she looked over expectantly. The driver was the man she had been thinking about day and night. She ignored the danger and went to meet him, "Young Master Jiang."
"Are you trying to kill yourself?" Jiang Jing frowned. It was raining heavily and the weather was hot and humid. The mist was piled up layer by layer, making it impossible to see the person clearly. If it weren't for the bright clothes, he might have bumped into him.
The people in the car got out.
Bai Luoxue was stunned. "Aunt, Nian Yin... uh, sister?"
Why are they mixed together?
"How come you have a carriage?"
You must know that a horse weighs more than ten taels, let alone a carriage.
Jiusu blinked, and Chacha said, "Is it expensive? I not only have a carriage, but also a yard. Don't you know that Chen Zhao gave me five thousand taels? Oh my God, I didn't let it slip, did I?"
Bai Luoxue's face didn't look good. She placed her hands on her abdomen and squeezed it tightly, revealing a weak smile.
"How could that be? My husband has already told me. I even thought it was too little and that my sister didn't have enough to spend, but my husband said that my sister was sensible and frugal, spending little and not willing to buy expensive things. Now it seems that my husband is worried. However, my sister should spend less. You know, wealth should not be exposed. Five thousand taels can be spent in a few days."
