Chapter 40 Business
The preparation of pear paste is very simple. The experienced doctor will know the medicinal materials added in it by a little taste. However, the prescriptions she used were improved by countless people and their effectiveness is first-class.
Unless it is a famous doctor, it may be difficult for ordinary doctors to prescribe something more effective than it.
There is also a taste. Gu Xiang boiled it as a drink, sweet and refreshing. After drinking the pear paste she made, she went to eat the things prepared in the medicine shop. Well, she was paying for it anyway... Maybe she took a little bit? After all, it was pear paste and it would not be difficult to eat.
Of course, the most important point is that Gu Xiang’s main purpose is not to make money.
What she wants most is the "satisfaction" of diners.
This will naturally not be expensive. The pear paste you make in the end is the cost and a little labor fee. Calculate every three bowls of pear paste water to make a penny. If those pharmacies are willing to sell it cheaper and grab the business...
Then Gu Xiang would definitely welcome her with both hands and feet, just to think that she was contributing to the charity of saving the world and the people.
"Why!"
Gu Laoshi was working on the river bank. Jiang sat on the stone pier beside the road and rubbed hemp ropes with several village women while chatting. As he was talking, he talked about the fact that several pharmacies in the county started selling pear paste.
Although Gu Xiang was very open-minded, Jiang still felt uncomfortable.
Jiang was worried and said in his heart: This is the recipe my daughter has worked hard to find from ancient books!
How hard should one work every day when he is in Yongyijun? Every night when she thinks of her daughter, she wants to shed tears. Her Sanniang even reads under such conditions. It is so difficult to find useful prescriptions from the book!
Those that should be kept in the box for children and used as dowry, passed down from generation to generation... are now cheap and cheap.
Seeing that Jiang was so angry, Gu Xiang quickly brought a bowl of wonton noodles to coax her.
The fragrant and warm wontons were taken off, and Jiang's face looked better.
"My mother, don't be angry. Our family has no strong capital and few manpower. We can't do big business. Don't worry about how others sell this pear paste, it won't delay me from doing this small business."
Gu Xiang smiled and said, "I am just alone and have a pair of hands. We can't finish the local business in our hometown, so why bother with the county?"
Jiang thought for a while: "That's right."
Gu Xiang chuckled: "My daughter has an idea. This pear paste is simple to make and has a good taste. If it is made in large quantities, the cost will be lower. It is not as good as my father. My mother learns from me and then starts a small workshop in the village to make pear paste."
"It doesn't have to sell it yourself after it is cooked. It also gives the villagers in the village a little bit of money, and give them a little bit of money to them, so that they can take them to other villages to sell. This way, my mother and dad both save effort."
Jiang quickly shook his head: "My mother is not polite to you. The money you earn now has been paid to your family, and your father and I have collected it, but this prescription is something that can be passed down from generation to generation. Unlike other people, you must collect it properly."
Speaking of this, Jiang couldn't help but scold Gu Xiang again, "You child has been straight and kind since childhood. My mother is not teaching you evil, but she wants you to be more careful. Sometimes we can be generous, but sometimes we can't. Just talk about the secret recipes in your hands and the recipes for cooking. They are things that you can make your life. No one wants to give them."
Gu Xiang: "..."
This is a huge misunderstanding!
Gu Xiang suddenly had the idea of making some money by her father, mother, and villagers, but in fact it was mainly because of her uneasiness.
Judging from the current signs, the future of the village may be full of disasters and difficulties.
But it is hard to avoid natural disasters and man-made disasters.
It is impossible for Gu Xiang to persuade the villagers to leave their hometowns and move their homes and places because of the reason that they cannot produce evidence. She is unlikely to persuade the Gu family to move away. People leave their hometowns and their hometowns are difficult to leave. If they had no choice, who would have left their homes?
And where the disaster comes from, even Gu Run himself may not be very clear. Even if he really moves away, he will be safe?
Gu Xiang just felt that adding more financial resources to the villagers so that everyone’s family would be richer. Even if there were any changes in the future, their ability to bear risks and disasters might be stronger.
Don’t say that wealth is more likely to cause disaster, just look at the present and understand which one is more unpredictable or a poor family?
Dali Village, which is only a mountain from Guzhuang, has a smaller population than Guzhuang. Because of the good soil and soil in the village, the grapes and cherries they grow first-class, the quality of each household in the village is relatively wealthy, and they are famous in the county government. The village soldiers and village warriors have trained more than 500. Their level of integrity is comparable to that of the imperial guards, but they are better than the ordinary wing army.
The bandits in the mountains, when they go down the mountain to harass the village, have to walk around Dali Village. Isn’t it because once Dali Village is moved, as long as they don’t kill them all, they will immediately recover?
Gu Xiang also thought about it repeatedly. The specific situation was not very clear and he could only deal with it. However, if he could be like Dali Village, there were also a group of powerful local soldiers in the township, which would have been less trouble.
Training village heroes is not a matter of one day or one night, and the premise is to have money. In the poor villages, there will always be no village soldiers. After thinking about it, she felt that it would be absolutely no harm for the villagers to earn more.
There is also Yongyi Army. Gu Xiang agreed to go to Yongyi Army, but what he had in his heart was the thought of holding his thighs. At the critical moment, he hoped that Yongyi Army would play a role and at least shock the young man.
Gu Xiang chuckled: "Mom, I still have to go to Yongyijun. I can't do this pear paste transaction for a few days. My parents don't want to save more money to send Wulang to study. I think he is very clever and does not hate studying. Don't delay him."
Jiang reached out and poked Gu Xiang's forehead and pointed: "Okay, it's a blessing that my son is so sensible now... Let's discuss it with your father. Anyway, if you make more money, you can also give you more dowry."
Gu Xiang suddenly remembered the box that had been locked at the head of Jiang's bed. The original body was always curious about the box. Later, he made a fuss to see it. Jiang was so entangled that he had no choice but to open it for her to take a look. There was a particularly beautiful phoenix crown hidden inside.
When the original body was eight years old, Jiang followed his father to the county town and fell in love with the phoenix crown at a glance. He borrowed money from his father and brother to buy it, and prepared to use it when the original body got married.
As soon as he thought of this, Gu Xiang felt a little sad.
The person who should enjoy all this will never be able to enjoy it.
Jiang has always been decisive and decided to do this business, and immediately began to prepare quickly. When she mentioned it to the villagers, many villagers were very supportive.
It is not easy for the farmer to save money at any time. Jiang also promised that if the pear paste cannot be sold, she would be responsible for recycling as long as it is sealed intact. Few villagers would refuse such a business that is stable and profitable.
