Chapter 134: Drilling a Well(1/2)

 There are also profits from the three new production lines she built.

One is a production line for the production of crispy silkworm pupae and spicy silkworm pupae, and the other two are production lines for the production of silk quilts and silk brocades.

She hired a person with outstanding ability and good management skills to manage each production line.

In addition, we also bought three shops, selling silkworm chrysalises, silk quilts and silk brocades respectively.

The income from these industries is very considerable.

Nowadays, the mulberry trees in the village produce very high yields of mulberries, and Shen Jintang is already considering opening another production line for brewing mulberry wine.

But for now, these are all things for later.

Shen Jintang looked at Bai Zhi, who had been standing aside, and asked with a smile: "Give it to Sumu?"

Bai Zhi also smiled and nodded, and replied respectfully: "Su Mu has already gone to do it."

Shen Jintang also put down his account book, picked up the rice paper with a well-killing drawing on the side and stood up: "Let's go, let's go to the blacksmith shop and see if the blacksmith can dig out this well-killing."

Bai Zhi immediately responded respectfully.

As for Qingdai, she is still here to continue to settle the accounts.

Fu Ling and Su Guang had been standing nearby Shen Jintang. When they saw her coming out of the room, they followed her without saying a word.

Poria, Shen Jintang and Bai Zhi were sitting in the carriage, while Su Guang was riding beside the carriage.

There are many blacksmith shops in Yichang County, and Shen Jintang wants to build a lot of wells. One blacksmith shop will definitely not be enough.

The carriage drove ricketyly to a century-old blacksmith shop. At the door of the shop, a shirtless man was pounding iron with a hammer.

Shen Jintang was helped out of the carriage by Bai Zhi.

When the man saw this, he immediately handed the hammer in his hand to another man beside him and said to him: "Just like me, keep hitting."

After saying that, he walked directly towards Shen Jintang, wiped the sweat on his face with the towel around his neck, and said with a smile: "Is this girl going to fight something?"

Shen Jintang took the rice paper with the drawing of well pressing and handed it to the blacksmith: "I want to type the things on this drawing. Do you think I can type it out?"

The blacksmith reached out to take the rice paper and looked at it carefully for a while, then nodded and said: "It should be OK to type it out, but the price will not be cheap."

Shen Jintang smiled when he heard this: "The price is negotiable. The quantity I want is quite large. You can give me a discount when the time comes."

The blacksmith heard this and looked at Shen Jintang: "I wonder how many girls you want to hit?"

Shen Jintang said to him: "How long will it take you to type this one?"

The blacksmith pondered for a moment after hearing this: "The fastest it will take two days, the slowest it may take three or four days."

Shen Jintang frowned when he heard this: "No, this is too slow."

If all she needs is finished, it will probably be next year.

She couldn't wait any longer. If it didn't rain, the crops in the fields wouldn't be able to wait.

Hearing this, the blacksmith smiled bitterly and said, "Girl, this is not a side job. You can't rush this job."

Shen Jintang nodded and asked him: "Do you know how many blacksmith shops there are in the entire Yichang County?"

Hearing this, the blacksmith scratched his head and thought for a while and said: "There must be hundreds of them, I don't know the exact number."

There are hundreds of companies. If each company can produce one in two days, then it can produce hundreds.

Shen Jintang took out a banknote and handed it to him: "Can you contact all the blacksmith shops you know and ask them to mobilize the blacksmith shops in Yichang County to work together to strike what I want, and first strike out five thousand Come on. This is the deposit."

The blacksmith had never seen such a large amount of banknotes before. He quickly took it and nodded heavily: "Okay, don't worry, girl. I will contact other blacksmith shops and promise to put down other work in my hands first. I’ll help you get what you want.”

Shen Jintang nodded and smiled at him: "Please, I'll send someone to pick up a batch in two days."

After finishing his words, he paused and continued: "I'll leave you an address. If you have anything, you can come find me."

The blacksmith nodded quickly when he heard this: "Okay."

Shen Jintang nodded to him and let Bai Zhi help her get into the carriage.

The blacksmith immediately took a big order, and the buyer proudly gave him a deposit of one hundred taels of silver, which made him extremely happy and excited.

With a smile on his face, he watched Shen Jintang get into the carriage and leave.

"Let's put aside the work at hand and study how to punch this thing first." The blacksmith said with a smile: "See if we can punch one out in advance and send it to the girl to see if it looks like this."

He has many apprentices under him, and they all smiled and congratulated him on taking a big order.

"Master, my apprentice just saw it with sharp eyes. The girl gave you a silver note of one hundred taels as a deposit. Do you want to spend some money to buy a table of wine and food to celebrate?" There was a young man with clever features. Open your mouth and smile.

When the blacksmith heard this, he immediately smiled and spat at him: "Go, go, you kid, you haven't shown any respect to your master, yet you want to lie on him and drink his blood?"

He paused for a moment, then smiled and said: "But Master is so happy today that he really needs a table of wine and food to celebrate.

But before celebrating, you have to do something in advance."

The blacksmith looked at the apprentice who had spoken before, smiled at him and said: "Erlang, you can talk, go and notify the other blacksmiths and ask them to come to our shop and say that I have prepared the food and drinks." , there are good things to share with them."

When the apprentice named Erlang heard this, he immediately responded loudly.

As soon as I took two steps outside, I turned back and called Master.

The blacksmith looked at him with a puzzled look on his face: "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

Erlang said with a smile on his face: "Master, won't you give me some money for running errands?"

The blacksmith immediately laughed, cursed and kicked him: "You damn boy, why don't you go quickly."

Shen Jintang naturally didn't know about these things that happened in the blacksmith shop.

Their master and servants returned to the village.

Manager Tong worked very efficiently and hired hundreds of well-drilling workers.

When Shen Jintang arrived at Zhuangzi, as soon as he got off the carriage, Manager Tong came up to him.

"Girl, I have already found the well diggers. I wonder how you are going to dig them?"

Shen Jintang glanced at him and said: "Hit one from a distance of 300 meters, and hit it deeper."

Manager Tong nodded when he heard this and said respectfully: "Okay, I'll go and notify them to start digging the well."

Shen Jintang went to the silkworm room again.

There is a thick curtain hanging at the door of the silkworm room, which can well control the temperature and humidity in the silkworm room.

After Shen Jintang entered, the workers who were feeding silkworms immediately came up to her respectfully and saluted: "I've seen the girl."

Shen Jintang waved his hand and said to them: "Just go about your business and don't worry about me."

She walked to the silkworm rack, pulled out a silkworm basket and looked at the silkworms inside: "Are these silkworms four years old?"

When a worker who was spreading mulberry leaves nearby heard this, he quickly and respectfully replied: "Back to my lady, these silkworms will enter the dormant period and become fifth-instar silkworms in a day or two."

When Shen Jintang heard this, he glanced at her and said with a smile: "I've seen you before. You came from Zhuangzi in Sanhe Village, right?"

The worker smiled innocently: "Girl has a good memory."

Shen Jintang looked around again and left without finding any problems.

Three production lines are also built in this village, divided into three factories.

Shen Jintang first went to the factory where crispy silkworm pupae and spicy silkworm pupae are produced.

In this era, the production lines in factories are not mechanized. They are all large stoves.

There are workers who clean silkworm chrysalises and prepare seasonings.

There are also people wearing aprons and hats who stand by the pot frying silkworm chrysalises.

The aroma is overflowing and makes people salivate.

Shen Jintang walked around and found that several workers were not wearing masks, so he asked: "Where are the masks given to you?"

When the worker heard this, he stopped what he was doing and took out the mask from his pocket: "The mask is here, girl."

Shen Jintang: "Why don't you wear it?"

The man was stunned for a moment, then timidly said: "Cover your nose and mouth, it's too hot."

It is indeed hotter inside the factory than outside.

It's all because of these pots and stoves. The fire is always burning, and it's not winter, so it will definitely be hot.

Shen Jintang: "You have to wear a mask, otherwise when you talk or sneeze, your nose and saliva will spray onto the silkworm chrysalis. How unhygienic."

When the worker heard this, he quickly put on the mask.

When the production line was first established, Shen Jintang took the drawings and had people sew them according to the pattern.

Eating food is different from other things. The most important thing is to be clean and hygienic.

But she discovered today that these workers were wearing aprons and hats well, but some were unwilling to wear masks.

That night, Shen Jintang convened a meeting with the workers on the silkworm chrysalis production line.

She looked at the hundreds of workers standing in two rows in front of her and asked the steward beside her: "Is everyone here?"
