Chapter 456 Stone Paint

Sun Manhong was worried about the sales of red sausage, but Yu Xiaolian was not worried, because before her red sausage was made, she had already received orders from restaurants and inns in Yangcheng.

Yu Xiaolian knew that the reason why these businessmen ordered red sausages was because she was the wife of the county magistrate.

However, the status of the county magistrate's wife is not in vain. She has not done anything immoral. The food is delicious and she has benefited the people. All she has done is to accumulate virtue and do good deeds.

"Just red sausage. We don't even have enough digestion in Yangcheng. Don't worry about sales!" Yu Xiaolian said, pushing the plate of sliced ​​red sausage in front of Sun Manhong.

"Sister Manhong, you eat! I haven't had time to come over recently. How are you all? Whatever is missing, has Manager Liu bought it for you?"

Sun Manhong nodded, "I bought it back. Manager Liu bought clothes for the three of us. Each of us bought two sets of changes. They are all made of good materials. Little Lian, I heard from Manager Liu that it cost nearly 300 yuan to buy these things for us."

Ten taels of silver, isn’t this too expensive?”

Sun Manhong knew that Yu Xiaolian was a relative of hers, but she was not rewarded for her merits. If Yu Xiaolian could give the three of them a place to stay and food to eat, they were very satisfied.

Making such expensive clothes for them, Sun Manhong always felt that the new clothes were 'uncomfortable' to wear.

"Sister Manhong, you don't have to worry about money. You will take care of the sausage factory for me from now on. You are my cousin. I will leave the factory affairs to you. I can rest assured!"

Yu Xiaolian had heard Sun Chunfang mention Sun Erlin's two daughters before. Sun Chunfang was full of praise for Sun Manhong, so Yu Xiaolian had great trust in Sun Manhong's character at this moment.

"Is that stone paint coming out of the ground?" Yu Xiaolian knew that the stone paint at this time was petroleum, but wasn't this oil usually hidden deep in the ground or emerging on its own?

"I used chicken feathers to dip oil into the jar downstream of the spring. The oil flowed down from the top. I didn't go up the mountain, but I heard from Li Orion that the stone paint on the top was yellow, and the oil flowed down.

Black." Because she was curious about why the stone paint turned yellow first and then black, Sun Manhong remembered what Li Orion said, but she didn't remember much else.

Yu Xiaolian knew that eating secretly might be an unavoidable thing in food factories. Even in modern food workshops with surveillance, there are also people who eat secretly and steal things, not to mention places like this in ancient times where there were no cameras.

After hearing Sun Manhong's words, Yu Xiaolian finally understood Jun Mobai's secret in Deyang Town. If no local told them, they would have had nowhere to inquire. After all, this might lead to death.

Ordinary people are very tight-lipped about things like this.

Yu Xiaolian smiled, "I haven't been here these days, how is the food in the factory? Has Manager Liu improved the food for everyone?"

Not only are we not allowed to enter the mountains, even the hunting people there are not allowed to enter."

Sun Manhong nodded hurriedly, "That is to say, if you ask me, and others ask me, I will pretend not to know!"

Yu Xiaolian took out her handkerchief and wiped Sun Manhong's tears, "I have already sent a letter to Yuzhou, and I believe they will be able to reply in two or three months.

If you want to go to Yuzhou by then, I will send someone to take you there!"

Unexpectedly, Sun Manhong's face changed, she glanced around in panic, stood up and closed the door.

"Sister Manhong, the cave you live in is between Beiweizi and Deyang Town. Have you noticed anything different about Deyang Town?" Yu Xiaolian asked casually.

At that time, the nearby villagers knew that there was a lot of stone lacquer, but they knew that if the government knew about it, the stone lacquer would be confiscated, so everyone tacitly came to get oil, and no one went to inform the government.

Sun Manhong nodded. After her husband's family died, she went to find her sister Sun Manxue and learned that her sister's family were all living well. But when her sister died, Sun Manhong was heartbroken. At that time, she took her two children with her.

A child with no family or friends in the North, and no one to rely on, he almost lost the courage to live.

"Xiao Lian, there was stone paint on the mountain behind Deyang Town. The stone paint mixed with the spring water and flowed down the mountain. Later, someone discovered that the stone paint could be used for lighting lamps. The villagers began to dip chicken tail feathers into the bottles. I

I've been there too, but no one thought that this thing would keep flowing. They all said that God has pity on the people in the North, and they are taking money out of the ground.

Jun Mobai was short of money, so the appearance of Shiqi undoubtedly brought him money. Shiqi can not only anoint cars (lubricate axles), but also serve as kerosene for lighting, igniting fires for cooking, and heating in winter.

It is of great use for both civilian and military purposes.

"You caught them? How did you deal with them?" Yu Xiaolian asked.

However, some people are greedy and are not satisfied with having stone paint for their own use. They also sell stone paint in the town. If one person sells stone paint to make money, other people will definitely follow suit. The matter of stone paint is also

Just like this, the Yi Cheng of Deyang Town found out that Wei Dachun, in order to invite the newly appointed King of Linzhou to reward him, went directly over his Shangguan Qianxian Cheng and reported the Shiqi matter to Jun Mobai.

However, when my jar of stone paint ran out and I wanted to dip some more in it, I found that the place had been sealed off by the officials and no one was allowed to enter the mountain.

Even if Yu Xiaolian didn't ask, Sun Manhong was about to tell her about this, "Sister Xiaolian, the food needs to be improved. The people in the raw meat group have no access to the finished product, and 80% of them can't eat anything. Wait for those in the smoked group.

Which of them don’t eat secretly? I’ve caught you taking a bite and I’ve caught it several times.”

Sun Manhong burst into tears suddenly, "Don't worry, little sister Lian, I've designated you to take care of our business. Not even a single pig hair can be mixed into the sausage."

Now that I think about it, fortunately she and her two children persevered, otherwise how would they have lived the good life they are living now?

After Yu Xiaolian and Sun Manhong inquired about Shi Qi's specific location, they reminded Sun Manhong, "Sister Manhong, don't take this matter for granted in the future, so as not to get into trouble."

Sun Manhong said, "How can I handle this? I'm afraid of offending you, so I leave it to Manager Liu to handle it."

"Oh, then do you know how Manager Liu dealt with it?"

"Manager Liu deducted their wages for the day and said that if they steal food again next time, they will be fined three days' wages. If it happens a third time, they will be sent home directly. No need."

Sun Manhong actually admires Manager Liu very much. After getting in touch with him in the past few days, she found that Manager Liu is considerate in everything. If she doesn't understand anything, Manager Liu understands everything.

Yu Xiaolian was very satisfied with Manager Liu's punishment. If the punishment was too severe, it might be counterproductive. If he let it go, he might lose everything.
