Chapter 499 The male protagonist's cannon fodder cousin (22)
The name of the mountain has been decided, and everything to be planted has been planned. It’s time to sow the seeds.
If all four mountains are to be planted with flowers and plants, a lot of seeds will be needed.
She called Xu Kui over and handed him two keys: "Xu Kui, this is the key to the warehouse in my parents' yard. You go back home and bring over a few sacks in the corner of the small warehouse. They contain this time
Seeds to be planted.”
This was something she quietly arranged when she returned home during the Chinese New Year.
There are lavender flower seeds on one mountain top, rosemary flower seeds on one mountain top, and assorted flower seeds on two mountain tops. The total amount is quite a lot.
At this moment, Xu Yin was extremely glad that she had a small world where her extra task was to plant flowers, otherwise she would not have been able to produce so many flower seeds at once.
Go to the system to redeem it, it's so expensive, it's like it won't be a system if you don't drain all her energy points.
As for the flowers in the Garden of Cultivation World, although she has collected many flower seeds, she has not yet figured out the specific effects of those flowers, so she would not dare to plant them on a large scale.
As for why she left these big bags of flower seeds in the house, she couldn't just conjure them up out of thin air.
It just so happened that in the main courtyard where my parents lived before their death, there was a large warehouse connected by three side rooms.
The key to the large warehouse was previously in charge of the mother-in-law next to the original mother. After checking the accounts and finding out the problem, the housekeeper collected the key and handed it over to her.
There is also a small hidden cellar-like warehouse in the large warehouse, which contains extremely rare treasures.
The key to the small warehouse has always been kept by the original mother herself, but now it is kept by her.
Xu Kui lowered his head respectfully, took the key with both hands, and solemnly promised: "Don't worry, girl! I will definitely get things done. If you are here, the key is here!"
Xu Yin twitched the corner of her mouth: "It's not as serious as you said."
The large warehouse originally contained some cloth, medicinal materials, antiques, calligraphy and paintings and other items commonly used for giving and returning gifts. After receiving the key in her hand, she took the maids to reorganize and make a book. At least one item could be found.
As for the treasures in the small warehouse, they are either boxes of gold and silver jewelry, unique calligraphy and paintings, or coral ornaments and other rare treasures shipped in from overseas. They are all packed in strong and heavy mahogany boxes with double locks.
.
One of them is Xu Yin's additional safety lock.
Without the key to open the box, a thief would have no way of getting in.
Because the entrance passage to the small warehouse is narrower than the width of the box, the entire box cannot be transported out at all.
When Xu Kui came back with a few sacks of flower seeds, the village chief had hired manpower, and work could start as soon as the flower seeds arrived.
Xu Yin plans to plant the auxiliary spice flowers in Qiuxiang Mountain in person.
The flowers and plants on the other three hills had been planted before, and the hired workers who worked for her at that time knew how to plant them.
After Xu Yin asked Xu Kui to send the flower seeds, she didn't ask any more questions. She only told them one thing: when encountering an uncertain situation, take a few steps to ask her and don't make your own decisions.
Construction started on the four mountains at the same time, and busy people could be seen everywhere on the mountains.
Xu Yin took her maid and mother-in-law to Xujia Village after planting the Qiuxiang Mountain, and cultivated the delicate flowers in the greenhouse.
At this time, Liulifang delivered the successfully fired distillation equipment, a few days later than expected, so when paying the bill, they took the initiative to wipe out zeros.
The errand boy also said diligently: "Our shopkeeper said that if Miss Xu needs anything in the future, please come to us at Liulifang. Even if it is a style that we have never undertaken before, Liulifang will definitely find a way to bake it for her."
Thanks to Xu Yin, Liulicang's turnover last year broke the record of any previous year. The shopkeeper can laugh out of his dreams. How dare he neglect Xu Yin, a big customer? In addition to sending customized distillation equipment, he also sent extra
A colorful glazed Guanyin Buddha statue by Xu Yin.
"The shopkeeper of Liulifang is really good at flattering people." Xu Kui muttered after waiting for the Liulifang clerk to leave.
Xu Yin heard this and said with a smile: "This is how business is done. You should learn from it. From now on, our Xu's fragrance shop business will be in your hands."
When Xu Kui heard this, he was so moved that he wanted to kneel down and kowtow to the girl to thank her.
Xu Yin glared at him: "Have you seen any shopkeeper who always kneels and kowtows to others?"
"..." It seems not.
"So let me learn! Let's do this. From now on, you will be the shopkeeper of the two workshops of Xiangfangfang and Heniantang. The monthly salary will be set at thirty taels for the time being. If the management is in place, it will increase year by year. From now on, we will recruit people in the workshop.
, it’s up to you to decide whether to hire people. Girl, I only need to see high-quality essential oils and high-concentration vodka, otherwise you can just make up your mind, and you don’t need to inform me anymore. Unless you can’t decide something, you can discuss it with me.”
Xu Kui was a little dumbfounded: "This, so fast." He was not mentally prepared.
Xu Yin was just telling the maid and mother-in-law how to grow camellias and peonies, two delicate flowers. She was only halfway through the lecture, so she patted Xu Kui on the shoulder: "Do a good job! I'm optimistic about you, girl!"
Then he continued to be busy.
Before Zi Yuan and Hong Qian left, they gave him an irresistible smile and silently mouthed: Watch out for you!
Xu Kui: "..."
When did these two girls become so naughty?
I reacted: Oh my, I have become the shopkeeper! I am also the shopkeeper of two workshops! Dad! Did you hear that? I have become the shopkeeper!
I wish I could fly back to my house and tell my father the good news. By the way, I want to ask my father if there is any smoke coming from the ancestral graves? Otherwise, how could such a good thing happen to him?
The girl said that from now on, his monthly salary would be the same as that of the spice shop owner, starting from thirty taels and increasing year by year.
Thirty taels, which is much higher than his father’s monthly salary!
Xu Kui grinned so wide that he could hardly find his eyes.
After having fun, I devoted myself wholeheartedly to the operation of the two workshops, running before and after, not to mention working hard.
With such an old scalper... Oh, that's wrong. He is a capable subordinate who handles all the trivial matters in the workshop for her. Xu Yin only needs to plant flowers in the early stage and adjust the fragrance in the later stage.
After the high-strength vodka is brewed, she plans to teach Ziyuan and Hongqian how to make perfume.
Once the days get busy, time feels like it flies by very quickly.
In a flash, spring turned to summer solstice, and flowers bloomed all over the mountains and plains.
Vetiver, rose, jasmine, rosemary, lavender... are entering the flowering period one after another.
The workers in the fragrance house work in two shifts, and the distillation equipment is shut down only every six days, and the workers are given a day off. It is in operation at other times.
He Niantang also hired experienced workers to open a brewery.
When Xu Yin first started brewing vodka, she worked as a remote technical consultant and used distillation to distill alcohol with an alcohol content of up to 96%, which was a good raw material for flavoring.
After the vodka brewing trial was successful and Xu Kui mastered the vodka brewing technology, Xu Yin stopped asking.
As long as the supply of vodka is sufficient, the distillery can brew some other liquor if they want. Xu Kui has full discretion as to what kind of liquor to brew.
It's the end of spring, the results are posted, and the next exam is coming. Some students are happy and some are worried.
Xu Kui accidentally took a batch of glutinous rice wine that He Niantang had brewed before and renamed it "Zhuangyuanhong", which was quite popular among scholars.
Xu Yin: "..."
He Niantang has withdrawn from the wine tribute service, but you still want to steal the business from Hualufang?
