Liu Pan'er's attention returned to farming and improving farm tools, and other things were done incidentally.

Liu Pan'er prepared three annual gifts to go to the county seat, one for Mrs. Gu, one for Mrs. Liu of the county magistrate's family, and the other one for Mrs. Zhao of the magistrate's family of Xunyang Prefecture.

It's just that they are far away, so this annual gift is sent to Mrs. Zhao of Xunyang Mansion together with Mrs. Liu's annual gift.

The New Year's gift is very simple, four pieces of silk satin of different colors and eight pieces of fine cotton of different colors, all dyed in our own dyeing workshop.

The colors are bright and bright, and they last a long time.

In addition, there are also lip balms and nail polishes that have been recently produced. After testing by Liu Paner, they are easy to use and non-toxic, have a good moisturizing effect on the lips, and the color is good-looking.

Each family has a set, the New Year gift is very good and very exquisite.

Mrs. Liu immediately assured, "Mrs. De Rui, don't worry, these things will be delivered to Xunyang Mansion properly."

Every year I give gifts to Shangguan, and this year is no exception.

Because I was waiting for Liu Pan'er before, I haven't sent it yet.

Mrs. Liu also liked what Liu Pan'er sent her, and she firmly remembered her husband's words that she must be on good terms with Mrs. Dre.

"Thank you, Mrs. Liu." Liu Pan'er thanked her. "After the new year, I may go to the city less often. If Mrs. Liu has something to do, just send her servants to find me."

Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "That's necessary. Madam, what are you busy with during the Chinese New Year? If you need anything, let me know. If I can't do it, my master can't do it. If my master can't do it, why not?"

You can contact Magistrate Zhao above."

Liu Pan'er smiled slightly and was even more polite, "Thank you Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu for paying so much attention to me. Spring plowing is about to begin next year. When I was plowing the fields last year, I found that the iron plow could not turn when plowing. The south is mountainous and there are many

The land is in the mountains, and the shape of the land is irregular. When plowing the land, the iron plow cannot turn, which is time-consuming. I am trying to see if I can make an iron plow that can turn to improve efficiency and save energy."

I originally thought that Liu Pan'er would expand his business and make more money, but I didn't expect that Liu Pan'er's eyes were still on farming.

Mrs. Liu was in awe. This Mrs. De Rui was indeed His Majesty's royal wife. What she wanted in her heart was not gold and silver jewelry, rouge, gouache, silk and satin, but farm tools that could improve the people of the world.

Mrs. Liu stood up with admiration on her face, "Madam's righteousness is very respectable. Let's do this, Madam, I will send you two skillful craftsmen in the next few days. If you have any good ideas, you can't try them yourself.

, these menial tasks are left to them. All expenses are the county government’s expense.”

Liu Pan'er said in front of Mrs. Liu that she just wanted to cooperate with County Magistrate Liu. She would provide drawings and some ideas, and Mr. Liu of the county government would be responsible for providing money and people to make the Quyuanli.

The credit belongs to everyone, so that we can get the protection of Mr. Liu from the county government, and we can also make good friends with Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu.

Liu Pan'er can find skilled craftsmen even if she has money, but if she works behind closed doors and takes all the credit, she can indeed get a lot of benefits in the short term, but she always remembers one sentence.

A single tree cannot make a forest.

Only by bringing together some friends with good conduct and similar interests to do things together and get credit and rewards together can we form an interest group and further expand our influence.

No matter what you want to do, you can get more help.

Liu Pan'er smiled and said: "Thank you, Mrs. Liu. Once we find the right person, I'll ask you to send someone over. The sooner we improve it, the sooner we can make it and seize the farming season."

Mrs. Liu smiled even more when she saw Liu Pan'er agreeing. It was just a matter of spending some money. It didn't matter if it didn't succeed. If it succeeded, it would be a great achievement, and her husband had a share of the credit for it.

"Okay, I will definitely choose the best carpenters and blacksmiths and send them to Madam." Madam Liu agreed, she could agree to this matter without discussing it with her husband.

After chatting for a while, Liu Pan'er said goodbye and left to go to the Gu family to give gifts.

Mrs. Gu looked at the rosy-faced Liu Pan'er and liked it very much. She took Liu Pan'er's hand and talked a lot. After lunch, Liu Pan'er went home.

The next day, Liu Paner prepared another New Year gift and got on the carriage to Heisha Town.

With the protection of Mayor Tang, no one came to disturb me, and the business of Buzhuang was very good. Therefore, New Year's gifts must be given.

This time, Liu Paner also brought Li Dabao with him.

After the New Year, Li Dabao will be eleven. He is considered a young man in his mid-teens. Learning how to deal with people early will be of great benefit in the future.

Mrs. Yan was also quite happy to see Liu Pan'er coming with Li Dabao.

Li Dabao stepped forward and saluted, "Aunt Yan, Sister Xiaomei, happy New Year."

Mr. Yan smiled and said, "Happy New Year, Dabao."

Yan Xiaomei saw that there was no contempt in Li Dabao's eyes, so she stood up from behind her mother and said, "Brother Dabao, happy New Year."

This time Liu Pan'er not only came to deliver festive gifts, but the leopard following behind also loaded a large cart of silk and cotton.

Mrs. Yan poured two cups of hot tea and said with a smile: "I am preparing to send you a message! Business has been very good these past few days before the year, and the inventory at home is almost sold out."

Liu Pan'er praised, "Yes, very good. I see that you two, mother and daughter, are quite lonely. You are usually busy doing business and have to cook for yourself. How about this, I will give you ten taels of silver and you can buy a wife by yourself."

Or a little maid, responsible for cooking and doing chores."

Ms. Yan chuckled lightly, "I was about to tell Sister Liu that some time ago, a woman whose parents both died sold her body to bury her mother. The people who wanted to buy her were old men and people from brothels. I think it's quite pitiful. I just spent the money.

I bought it for fifteen taels of silver. I am thirteen years old this year, a little older than Xiaomei. I can make fires, cook, wash clothes, and do all kinds of work. This is a servant I bought with money, and you don’t have to pay for it."

At this time, a thin little girl came in carrying a pot of hot water.

Liu Pan'er saw that this little girl kept things tidy and was very diligent. She had no father or mother, so she could work here without any worries.

"That's fine, I won't compete with you." Liu Pan'er agreed, respecting Yan's decision.

Mrs. Yan took the account book with her daughter, reconciled the accounts with Liu Pan'er, and handed the earned money to Liu Pan'er after deducting various expenses.

After Liu Pan'er took inventory, she felt in her heart that she still made money by doing business.

The cloth shop in Heisha Town can sell 500 pieces of cloth every month, of which cotton accounts for 90% and silk only 10%. However, the profit from silk is quite high. The net profit for a month reaches sixty taels of silver.

Business is better in the twelfth lunar month. It is expected that more than 600 pieces of cloth can be sold and the profit can reach more than 70 taels of silver. In this way, one can earn nearly a thousand taels of silver a year.
