Chapter 499 You should go home and take care of it!
Sang Zhixia's offer was generous enough that Jiang Yubai pondered for a long time but couldn't think of any reason to refuse. His expression was complicated: "So, according to my sister-in-law, is it 50/50?"
"right."
Sang Zhixia rubbed her fingertips and nodded: "The cost is half, the effort is half, and the revenue is also half."
"As for manpower..."
Sang Zhixia said generously, "If the young prince is worried, you can send your own people to look after it. My people are only responsible for the work and will not interfere in anything else."
"How can that be possible?"
Jiang Yubai's mind flashed with countless distracting thoughts, but he quickly suppressed them and said decisively, "I understand what my sister-in-law means, but the specific details of the manpower dispatch need to be discussed."
Sang Zhixia had more than enough room to make concessions. Even Jiang Yubai, whose face was thicker than a city wall, felt a little ashamed at this moment. He really didn't have the face to press his limits any further.
Jiang Yubai made a decision and his mind raced: "But I can send people to spread the news right now and select the places where they'll be needed and prepare in advance."
"Does my sister-in-law have any plans for her initial destination?"
Of course there is.
When Sang Zhixia thought of this idea, he drew up a rough outline of the area, detailing every word.
Jiang Yubai listened quietly, asking a few questions from time to time, and soon got detailed answers from Sang Zhixia.
Sang Zhixia had indeed made sufficient preparations for this.
Xu Yu came back halfway through the conversation. He sat down without interrupting and just sat there. When Jiang Yubai finished speaking, he leaned back in his chair with a sense of relief and said, "I feel relieved now. So my sister-in-law wants to borrow my people from the canal transport business?"
Sang Zhixia didn't hide anything and said frankly, "The various shells needed for the soap flower need to be continuously transported back from the coastal areas. With the convenience of water transport, it will be much easier."
Moreover, it takes connections to ship the finished products out and sell them.
As long as the distance can be shortened as much as possible, the compressed time cost will be converted into cash.
Why not do such a good thing?
It’s a pity that the Xu family can’t get involved in the canal transportation, and there is no one more suitable than Jiang Yubai for this matter.
Jiang Yubai always felt that he was not worthy of his position and that he could not afford to take so much profit.
Now that he knew exactly what he was doing, he immediately smiled brightly: "No problem."
"Not only shells, but anything that can be used on the canal, sister-in-law, just ask."
"I'll send a suitable person over later. If there's anything you need from now on, you can just tell him to do it. I guarantee there won't be any mistakes."
This was a mutually beneficial negotiation, and both Sang Zhixia and Jiang Yubai breathed a sigh of relief without showing any emotion.
Jiang Yubai was happy about the extra way to make money, while Sang Zhixia was thinking about the shops that would soon be spread everywhere.
After exchanging a glance, Sang Zhixia raised the glass of water beside her and said to Jiang Yubai, "Let me use water instead of wine to wish you a happy cooperation in advance."
Jiang Yubai was in a good mood, and he raised his glass happily and smiled: "Thank you, sister-in-law, for helping me make money. I will draw up a list of available people when I get back and send it to you on a certain day."
After the main business was settled, Jiang Yubai didn't bother to talk nonsense with Xu Yu and stood up happily to say goodbye.
Sang Zhixia turned the water cup in her hand, saw a few drops spilled onto the table, closed her eyes and slowly leaned on Xu Yu's shoulder: "Why are you back so early today?"
"Have you finished your work outside?"
Jiang Yubai had to leave the Northwest, but the Northwest was a piece of fat meat that he was reluctant to give up.
So before this person left, he had to hand over all the troubles at hand to Xu Yu, and let Xu Yu help lay the foundation for this place.
Xu Yu has been very busy recently. When he goes out, Sang Zhixia is still asleep. He usually comes back after dinner, and sometimes he doesn't even go home.
To be precise, Sang Zhixia hadn't seen anyone before sunset for quite some time.
Xu Yu reached out and brushed the hair by Sang Zhixia's ear and whispered, "It's done."
"If you hadn't come back earlier, how would I have known you were still working in the fields today?"
Since Sang Zhixia didn't say anything, no one else dared to mention it.
So Sang Zhixia took advantage of Xu Yu's absence and jumped around the village under the pretext of staying at home to take care of her pregnancy. Diancui and Huashan ran after her, holding a chair that they dared not let go, for fear that she would be tired and unable to find a suitable place to sit. Her jumping up and down became a sight in the village.
Sang Zhixia laughed glumly, "I'm just going out to take a look, not to swing a hoe. Why is it worth mentioning it?"
"But there's no point in getting angry. I'm going to go to the workshop tomorrow to take a look. I'm just going to take a look and I'm definitely not going to do anything myself."
As the number of shops selling soap flowers and sales gradually increased, the amount of bristles accumulated on the farm became considerable.
Sang Zhixia specially gathered a group of craftsmen, and without thinking about anything else, they focused on making brushes with bristles.
The style of the brush was specified by Sang Zhixia herself. They come in different sizes and shapes. Anyway, they don't look like they can be used for washing pots and dishes. No one knows what they can be used for yet.
Xu Yu responded and placed his large hand on Sang Zhixia's round belly. He said slowly, "Apart from those brushes, are there any other arrangements?"
Sang Zhixia rolled her eyes, raised the corners of her eyes and said, "And rouge."
"I want to take a look over there, too."
Speaking of rouge and powder, this was definitely an unexpected gain for Sang Zhixia.
She hadn't known before that Aunt Xie had such a rare and good skill.
Seeing that she was interested after Aunt Xie mentioned it, she gave her a brief introduction of her family's academic background. Without thinking, Sang Zhixia arranged a separate place and asked Aunt Xie, who was familiar with many ancient recipes, to bring a group of people to concentrate on research.
The place where brushes are made is in the village, but the place where rouge is made is in the county town.
Xu Yu snorted softly, then lowered his head and bit the tip of Sang Zhi Xia Bai's ear as if punishing her, mumbling, "No wonder mother-in-law said she couldn't control you and asked me to come back and take a look myself."
"So this is how you rest when I'm not home?"
Everyone in the family, young and old, treats him as a precious baby who should be cherished. But this little darling has his own ideas and no one can persuade him. He insists that he must do what he wants to do.
Mrs. Xie was first very proud of her daughter's ability, but then she couldn't help but start to worry.
She's pregnant, how can she hang out outside all day?
It's a pity that the mother's deterrent power is not enough. Xu Wenxiu, the mother-in-law, is heartbroken but can do nothing. The elders can only watch helplessly and can only try to bring Xu Yu, who is busy outside, back to discipline him themselves.
Mrs. Xie was so anxious that she forgot her reserve in front of Xu Yu and said angrily, "You better go home and take care of this!"
Sang Zhixia didn't expect that someone else would complain. She said with a mixture of laughter and tears, "Why is my mother like this?"
"What else did she say to you?"
Xu Yu gently kissed the spot he had bitten, and said with a half-smile, "Zhizhi is so smart, guess what?"
