Chapter 177: A lot of things
As expected, Bai Yao put down the chopsticks after eating the vermicelli for a while and looked at Chen Chunhua. "I have to say that Bai is really convinced today! This vermicelli is different from other foods. It tastes interesting, but it also has strong and soft and smooth. I wonder how you came up with this idea?"
Chen Chunhua had never thought about it when Bai Yao asked this. After hearing this, Dong Niang hurriedly said, "As I thought about it, I came up with this idea. I wonder if the Hundred Master can respond readily now?"
"That's natural. Even if you don't eat this vermicelli, you have to respond!" The money earned by doing the fan business was enough to make him believe it!
Chen Chunhua nodded and said, "Since I have agreed, I will talk to you about the vermicelli business. This vermicelli business is completely different from the fan business. One is food and the other is utensils. The vermicelli business is busy with. It is in Zhaojia Village, my side. Some people have already invited them. What we need to do now is the way and potato melon!"
Bai Yao and Dong Niang nodded after hearing this and said, "I wonder how much the price of this vermicelli is?"
"I have thought that vermicelli cannot be sold in small cities. If you sell it, you will naturally not make any profit. The way you have to take this time is to sell vermicelli in the prosperous county town of Liaocheng. The price is naturally not low. Just roughly, one pound of potato melon vermicelli can cost at least fifty cents. What do you think?"
Bai Yao heard this and thought for a while and said, "It's not much fifty-money. There are many wealthy families in Liaocheng alone, and the food in the house is also excellent!"
"It is because of this that the vermicelli business can be expanded. If you have time, please invite the 100-year-old master and Dong Niang to visit Zhaojia Village. I invite people to work hard and they are from the countryside. The wages are ten cents a day, and they are responsible for lunch!"
"Chunhua, since the business venue is set in Zhaojia Village, it's better to do this. I will explain the matters in my house tomorrow, so I will go to Zhaojia Village to manage it. Take charge of the account!"
"Sure, let's make up for this first. For other things, we have to wait until the hundred young masters go to Zhaojia Village and see them. As for the potato melon matter, I will also ask you!"
Bai Yao nodded. He sent someone to the countryside to greet the potato melons and said, "Okay, I'll send someone to Zhaojia Village in two days!"
After this, Chen Chunhua rushed back to Zhaojia Village. She worked hard all the time, but she was tired. She was not as tired as modern and developed means of transportation.
When she returned to the village, the third brother was taking care of her. Everyone was busy. After breakfast, she went to Qingcheng for lunch and came back. She put more than a dozen jars in the yard. The washed potato melons were piled up, and the potato melons were cut, and the potato melons were also busy.
Seeing Chen Chunhua coming back, the third brother hurried over and said, "Wife, that cloth bag is not enough!"
When Chen Chunhua heard this, she patted her head and said, "I forgot if you don't say it!" She had only sewed some of the cloth bags in the room in the past two days, so it must be not enough to be busy.
"Oh, don't worry, I took the money for my godmother. She went to the town to buy some coarse cloth and called A Lian's wife and Qiu Ju to work hard together!"
Chen Chunhua nodded and said, "Finish, then let's do it first. I'm so tired now. Go back to the house to rest!"
Because the potato melon starch had not yet been prepared, the powder leaked naturally had to wait until the next day! Chen Chunhua put her rest in the room for a while, then thought about letting the third brother set up a big stove.
But now there is no room for a big stove to be built. There is a water tank in the yard of the old house, so I have to work hard in the yard. I went out of the yard and took a look. If the yard was not repaired before, the land would be very spacious, and it would be great to use that piece of land to build the stove to leak powder!
After thinking about it, I went to Erzhuzi's house. This leaking powder sieve was busy with work in the yard in Erzhuzi's house. I went to the yard to look at the old road. "Brother, I'll tell you something!"
The boss nodded, put down his work and said, "Wife, what's the matter?"
"How can I use the yard in the second house? I have no place to go for this big stove with a leaking powder. Isn't it possible?" After hearing Chen Chunhua's words, the boss shook his head and said, "Don't use the yard of the second house. Let's wait for him to come back. If you are dissatisfied with us, wouldn't you be talking?"
Chen Chunhua thought about it and said, "What should I do?" The back mountain ridge was blocked by her own yard. There was a gap in front of the front, but she was unwilling to say that when she went forward, she was in front of Aunt Gouzi's house!
"Sister-in-law, why is there no place? Isn't my second brother able to build a big stove in the yard? Although the ground is uneven, I called a few people to work hard and repair it in the whole morning. This is nothing!" Erzhuzi heard it for a while before he raised his head and said to Chen Chunhua.
Chen Chunhua nodded and said, "Yes, tomorrow I will call someone to repair the land there. How much has this sieve been made?"
"I just ordered the number of points, and there were more than three or four hundred. Thinking that the wood was still left, I just finished it so that I wouldn't be able to reach it again if I turned around!" Erzhuzi quickly spoke.
The preparations for the vermicelli business are basically complete. I just wait for the leaking powder after tomorrow. In addition, the vermicelli will be dried. It is estimated that the first batch of vermicelli will be produced in three to five days.
Bai Yao was very particular about his work. Two days later, he sent someone to pull two trucks of potato melons to Zhaojia Village the next day. It was not over yet. In the afternoon, he sent three trucks of potato melons in the house. There was no place to put them in the yard of Dabao's house and piled them up.
In the morning, the powder leaking sieve was ready, and the old man and the second master were killed and the second master. The big master called a few more people to clean up the piece of land next to the second master's house, and then put up seven or eight large stoves.
Chen Chunhua was still worried that the village could be very busy. Now it seems that the ground is not enough. The big stove has land, but what about drying vermicelli? When she thinks of this problem, she is very big and is used for all the darkness. I am afraid it is too late to dry it, so she has to say that when the sun is getting smaller, she puts it on the sun and dry it underground.
Dong Niang came on the third day. She didn't come alone. She also brought several mothers to come together, and two trucks of potato melons were brought in from behind.
When I arrived at Zhaojia Village, I just entered the village, but no one saw it. When I got closer to Chen Chunhua's house, I saw the group of people on the edge of the river were busy washing potatoes.
Chen Chunhua saw that Dong Niang was coming and hurriedly invited her into the house. Two inner rooms in the house were vacated for Dong Niang to live in.
Seeing Chen Chunhua's busy yard, Dong Niang was confused. After entering the house, she asked the woman to take out the account book and abacus and said, "Did Bai Yao send five carts of potato melons?"
"It's five cars!"
Dong Niang nodded, tugged the abacus beads and said, "He sent the five trucks of potato melons in total. The potato melons are not worthy of the rural villages in Baixingcheng. The potato melons that go to the east of Liaocheng have a good harvest this year, so the potato melons I have naturally been much cheaper. The two trucks I have brought here are also worthy of the other side. I have stored them in your Qingcheng house!"
Chen Chunhua was also wondering why potato melons were so cheap. After hearing Dong Niang's words, she thought that the village here did not harvest well this year due to the rising water, so potato melons were planted for the second time.
"Chunhua, I just entered your yard and saw it. Why don't I put the venue together like Qingcheng doing a fan business?"
Dong Niang asked, and Chen Chunhua also thought that she was still short of manpower now. After a while, when the vermicelli business started, she would use all the land in her house on the riverside to do the vermicelli and collect all the potato melons. She didn't plant anything tightly in the field. However, the land was not only from her house, but also to talk about it later!
"Don't panic for now. I have plans to wait until the business starts!"
"Okay, how much vermicelli has been produced? When can I start selling it?"
"I guess in the next two days!" The powder will start to leak tomorrow. The way to dry the vermicelli is to make some stakes, put them on the bamboo pole and put them outside to dry them.
Then, Chen Chunhua took out her account book and looked at Dong Niang and said. "I will say to you the utensils I bought for making vermicelli. Just those jars cost eleven taels. You can order them and count them. There are more than twenty pots and seven taels. The leaking powder sieve is the one in my house. Forget it, there are also the fabric money for the cloth bag..."
As for the knife used to cut potato melons, this is not considered a matter of it. Those who work hard to cut potato melons bring this guy from their own house, which saves this money!
After all, after all, I spent more than thirty taels of silver and Niang Dong counted what Chen Chunhua said one by one.
The sweet potato starch precipitated in the water tank was also empty, and the powder was leaking when it was opened the next day.
Chen Chunhua, the eldest and the third brother are both familiar with each other, so they naturally have to teach people step by step. The first time they were born, either the vermicelli was missed or the vermicelli was pasted and the bottom of the pot was stained.
Fortunately, Chen Chunhua made the leaking powder sieve into rows. Otherwise, if this continued, I wouldn’t know how many days would I have to work hard to get started!
After a morning of time, the leaked vermicelli was not good. In the afternoon, everyone became more focused and became much more skillful. The leaked vermicelli was much better, and it was no longer broken and stuffed.
Dong Niang followed Chen Chunhua all day long and watched. She had never seen this leaking powder before. She never thought that it would be so complicated and troublesome to make the vermicelli. It would be very easy to eat when eating. People who have never seen it naturally don’t know this!
But she really admired Chen Chunhua. She could still get along with such a business idea. She thought that if Bai Yao came to see him, she would be shocked for a long time!
At night, everyone got off work, packed up everything and put it in the yard, and put it away from the drying outside.
It’s just this little trouble. If you put the big pot outside, you’re afraid that someone will leave it. You can’t put the vermicelli outside. Once you collect it, you will take it away from each pound!
After working all day, Chen Chunhua sat down and didn't want to move. The eldest and third brother watched their wife busy for the past few days and didn't bother her at night. Although she thought about it, she still felt sorry for her wife!
"Wife, if you are very tired, then go to bed first. I will keep the things in the yard and the third brother!" Seeing his wife sitting on the chair and looking limp, the eldest brother felt very distressed.
Chapter completed!
