It has been dark for a while now, which is when Jiaofangsi's business is most prosperous.
As the top girl of the Jiaofang Division, she was not busy socializing in the Jiaofang Division, but she appeared at the gate of the Sheriff's Mansion, which surprised Jin Feng.
"The county guard's wife said that Miss Xiaobei was frightened this time, and she wanted to make a quilt for Miss Xiaobei to calm her down. The little girl knows some female beauty. At noon, the lady asked the little girl to come over to help. She just made it."
Luliu explained with some envy.
Jin Feng suddenly realized.
Nühong is a general term for skills related to needlework. Almost all women, from common people to queens and concubines, must learn it.
It's just that the focus of learning is different.
Some people are good at weaving, some are good at sewing, some are good at embroidery, and some are good at knotting.
Luliu was particularly good at embroidery, so the county governor's wife came to her.
"Girl has been busy all afternoon because of Xiaobei's affairs, so I won't disturb her."
Jin Feng just drank two bowls of wheat porridge by the official road at noon, and now he is hungry.
Observing words and emotions is the basic skill of a brothel girl. Although Luliu wanted to chat more with Jin Feng and enhance their relationship, she found that Jin Feng had no interest in talking to her and did not bother much. She said goodbye to Jin Feng with a smile.
Just when he passed by Jin Feng, his little hand "accidentally" touched the back of Jin Feng's hand.
Jin Feng naturally understood her intention, but things had been so complicated recently that he really wasn't in the mood to provoke Luliu anymore.
This girl's rank is not low at first glance.
On the way back, Jin Feng was still thinking about the governor's words.
He is still too weak now, and he is always constrained in doing things. With the current situation, he is really not suitable for being too popular. Instead of spending energy fighting Zhou Changlin to the death, it is better to run a business well and earn enough money to grow.
Own.
Only when you have food in your hands can you not panic.
When he got home, Jin Feng was still thinking about this matter and was eating a little absent-mindedly.
Also absent-minded was Tang Xiaobei.
She still remembered what Jin Feng said yesterday morning, but Jin Feng went after Zhou Wenyuan last night and didn't come back. She didn't know if he would be there tonight...
Just as he was thinking wildly, he heard Jin Feng say: "Dongdong, Xiaobei, I want to set up a chamber of commerce, what do you think?"
"Commerce... Chamber of Commerce?"
Tang Xiaobei was a little confused for a moment.
"There are already too many soaps accumulated in Tin Can Mountain. I want to turn them into money as soon as possible."
Jin Feng said: "Xiaobei, didn't you train a group of domestic slaves? After the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce, it was first used as a pilot project in several counties in Guangyuan to see if they were qualified for the position of shopkeeper, and the smartest one was selected from among them.
, prepare for the capital side, once the soap market opens in the capital, she can take office. "
"But I have only been teaching those slaves for a short time." Tang Xiaobei said: "Is it too early to let them go down now?"
"Practice is the best way to test a person's ability, and it is also one of the best ways to learn."
Jin Feng said: "If it works, just send them down and give them a try. If they work, continue to focus on training them. If they don't work, make other arrangements to avoid wasting your energy."
"That's okay."
Tang Xiaobei nodded and agreed: "But sir, if the goods are not complete, we will not sell them for money. If a chamber of commerce is established, we will only sell soap. Wouldn't it seem too little?"
"Of course it's not just soap. Mancang has more helpers now. I can ask him to make some iron tools and sell them together."
"Is it a black knife?" Tang Xiaobei's eyes lit up.
Although she didn't know much about iron tools, she was no stranger to black knives. She once asked Alan to study them.
The black knife is sharper and harder than all the knives on the market. If it is sold to outsiders, it will definitely fetch a good price.
Women can buy soap and men can buy black knives. Tang Xiaobei can already envision the future of the Chamber of Commerce.
"We will make a batch of black knives, but the number will not be too large. They will mainly be common tools such as kitchen knives and scissors." Jin Feng said.
"It's better to have less. Things are more valuable when they are scarce. Isn't it because soap can sell for a high price because there is less?"
Tang Xiaobei said: "With some common tools, it will be just right."
"There is also the fine wine made by Brother Feng. If you are willing to sell it, you can definitely sell it for a good price."
Tang Dongdong, who had been silent for the whole time, said with a smile: "Brother Feng, you don't even know that those veterans are trying their best to please Xiao Jin every day, begging her to bring out the leftover alcohol refining alcohol from the laboratory."
"What wine?"
Tang Xiaobei's heart moved.
"Brother Feng made a delicious wine some time ago, and everyone who drank it was full of praise."
Tang Dongdong said: "And this kind of wine is extremely intoxicating. Tie Shui can drink five or six kilograms normally, but if he drinks one and a half kilograms of Mr.'s wine at most, he will be drunk and unconscious."
"With such fine wine, why not sell it?" Tang Xiaobei asked.
"Brother Feng said that making wine is a waste of food. I don't know how many people in Dakang starve to death every year. Using grain to make wine is harmful to the harmony of the world," Tang Dongdong said.
"Since sir said so, let's forget it."
Although Tang Xiaobei felt a little regretful, he still supported Jin Feng's decision.
"Brother Feng, I actually think that even if we don't make wine, others will, and there will be no shortage of grain that should be used to make wine. You don't need to think so."
Tang Dongdong took the initiative to bring up this matter, just to persuade Jin Feng: "Moreover, let's set the price of fine wine higher, just like soap, we will make money from rich people."
"Others are others, I am me."
Jin Feng, who had always been willing to listen to Tang Dongdong's opinions, shook his head firmly at this time: "The wine will be brewed later, but not now."
The host's memory of the barren years had a strong impact on Jin Feng, a modern man.
When I was studying history in my previous life, I often saw some records about famines. For example, in a certain place, in a certain year, drought or locust plagues caused millions of people to be displaced and eat each other.
For Jin Feng at that time, this was just a piece of knowledge that needed to be memorized.
But with the memory of the host, he understood what a tragedy it was for people to eat each other.
When the host was seven or eight years old, that year was a famine year due to drought. He saw with his own eyes a little friend being carried away from the village by his father, and then when he came back, he carried back an unknown child.
That night, the smell of meat wafted out of the friend's house, which made the host so hungry that he asked the old blacksmith to get him some meat.
The old blacksmith, who was always reluctant to beat him, beat him severely that day.
He didn't understand why at the time, but now every time he thinks about it, he can't help but get goosebumps all over his body.
Every time he thought about this incident, Jin Feng would feel in his heart that God had given him a chance to live a new life, perhaps to prevent this kind of human tragedy.
