Chapter 117 Pickling Vegetables: Giving the Villagers a Little Sweetness



Shen Yunsheng told her sister-in-law that the car was hers, and she continued to use her master's name to deceive her sister-in-law, just like before.

The neighbors heard the commotion and came over to see what was going on; they were all curious about the van.

“Jingchuan’s family, you’re going to make a fortune. This metal box is even more high-end than an electric car. It might be able to carry a lot of people.”

Aunt Tan smiled and touched the front of the car. Shen Yunsheng smiled back at her and said, "When I get rich, I will definitely not forget you all. I am always ready to serve you whenever you need me."

Aunt Tan smiled and said, "Last time you led us to pick bamboo shoots, I earned an ounce of silver! With you in our village, we don't have to worry about making money."

The others echoed this sentiment, all wanting to make big money with Shen Yunsheng, and they also trusted him.

"Jingchuan's family, where's your electric scooter?" Aunt Tan asked casually when she didn't see the scooter.

Shen Yunsheng told her that she had presented the electric scooter to the Emperor.

Aunt Tan was both surprised and delighted upon hearing this. If the Emperor was pleased, perhaps their Dahe Village could also benefit from it!

"Jingchuan's family, you are truly our village's lucky star."

Aunt Tan couldn't stop smiling. When she praised Shen Yunsheng, she even glanced at Xiao Wenjing.

Xiao Wenjing was both happy and depressed. His daughter-in-law was excellent, which showed that his son had good taste, but his daughter-in-law was too domineering, which was not a good thing.

At this moment, a villager suddenly suggested, "Since Yun Sheng is so capable, why don't we all work together? There are many people in Dahe Village, and we're sure to make something of ourselves!"

Everyone responded enthusiastically. Seeing this, Shen Yunsheng was secretly delighted. Since returning from the county government, she had been planning how to develop Dahe Village, which was rich in geographical environment and natural resources.

She plans to develop it into the number one village in the world, so that all the villagers of Dahe Village can live a good life.

"Yun Sheng! I heard from your father that you earned five hundred taels of silver in one trip to the county town. Could you help us out?" Aunt Tan couldn't help but ask again.

She envied the Luo family for having such a good daughter-in-law, and thought she could enjoy her good fortune in the future.

Shen Yunsheng had already figured out how to use the money. "Actually, my five hundred taels were given to me by my senior brother. I was planning to use it as start-up capital to build a kimchi processing plant in the village. Then, I would recruit workers in the village."

"Sheng'er, what is pickled vegetable? I've never heard of it before," Luo asked Shen Yunsheng, frowning and looking at her with a puzzled expression. She really couldn't figure out what pickled vegetable was, let alone how to make it.

"This kimchi is a food made by fermenting various vegetables in a special brine," Shen Yunsheng explained patiently. "It not only tastes delicious, but it also has a long shelf life, so it's sure to sell well!"

The villagers, upon hearing this, expressed their support.

"Then let's all help!"

"Yes! Let's build this kimchi processing plant together!"

Shen Yunsheng smiled and nodded, "Then I'll have to trouble everyone! However, before we build the factory, we need to prepare some packaging bottles. I'll go to town tomorrow to find a porcelain craftsman to make them."

Ms. Luo said with some concern, "That must cost a lot of money, right?"

Shen Yunsheng comforted her, "Mother, don't worry about spending money. As long as we set up the kimchi processing plant, we'll definitely earn more money! Then, the people in our village won't need to go out to work."

Everyone was filled with confidence after hearing this.

Xiao Jingchuan remembered that Aunt Tan's husband in the village knew how to make porcelain, so he mentioned it casually.

"My wife, I personally suggest that there's no need to go to town to order custom packaging bottles. We can ask Uncle Tan to make them."

Shen Yunsheng's eyes lit up. "That's right! How could I forget Uncle Tan! He's a famous porcelain craftsman in the village, with superb skills."

Aunt Tan's face lit up with joy. In the entire Dahe Village, only her family had the surname Tan. Just now, Xiao Jingchuan said that he would give the packaging bottles to Uncle Tan. This was a big business deal. If they could cooperate long-term, they would never have to worry about food for the rest of their lives.

"Jingchuan, is the Uncle Tan you're talking about my man?"

Aunt Tan tentatively asked Xiao Jingchuan that his family did not have a porcelain kiln and usually borrowed the old village chief's porcelain kiln to fire the kiln. If they took on this business, they would have to borrow the old village chief's porcelain kiln again.

Xiao Jingchuan nodded in agreement. He planned to open a porcelain kiln in the village to generate income for his fellow villagers.

"Aunt Tan, as long as your skills are excellent, we will order all our packaging bottles from you from now on."

Before her husband could finish speaking, Shen Yunsheng added, "Aunt Tan, the development of Dahe Village cannot be separated from everyone. From now on, we will customize our packaging bottles from your store, and the price will be based on the market price."

Hearing this, Aunt Tan was very excited and thanked him repeatedly. Then, Shen Yunsheng said, "I'm going to make kimchi tonight. If you uncles and aunts don't mind, you can help me wash the cabbage. The wages will be calculated on a daily basis, fifty coins per person."

"Good heavens! You can earn fifty coins just by washing a cabbage? That's too high a wage. If we go to town to do odd jobs, we can only earn twenty coins a day at most."

Xiao Wenjing put on a stern face. He felt that his daughter-in-law didn't know how to manage a household. He himself went to cut timber and only earned fifty coins a day.

The daughter-in-law gave these people fifty coins as soon as she opened her mouth; it was practically free money.

Shen Yunsheng was a decisive person; once she thought of something, she would do it. She immediately led her neighbors into the house, then took out the largest basin and several winnowing baskets in the house, and said to everyone with a smile, "Then I'll have to trouble you all, aunties. I don't have that many basins, so I'll have to trouble you all to use this big basin to wash the cabbage."

The neighbors all said they didn't mind and gathered around to start washing the vegetables. Luo and Xiao Xuemei were responsible for placing the washed cabbages in a colander to drain the water and setting them aside for later use.

Seeing that everyone was busy and having a great time, Shen Yunsheng turned to Xiao Jingchuan and said, "Husband, go and get the big enamel jar I bought last time. Wash it, we'll need it later!"
