If one piece of cloth costs 400 taels of silver, and if you prepare ten looms at home, you can weave at least 400 pieces of cloth in a month, it will cost you 160 taels of silver.
Excluding cotton costs and labor costs, you can still earn eighty or ninety taels.
I earn eighty or ninety taels a month, and my daughter said that she earns much more than the county magistrate and other high-ranking officials.
No, it doesn't matter. You can handle it by yourself.
The more Chun Niang thinks about it, the more beautiful she becomes, and her appearance is very admirable.
When the time comes, we will hire people to plant the fields at home, and we will be able to save a lot of money.
After boiling hot water, Chun Niang brought a bathtub and helped her husband wash his hair in the kitchen.
After washing his head and face, Jiang Sanlang changed into the clothes brought by his wife.
"The clothes are so loose now. Why does he think I've lost a lot of weight than I did in Yueqing?"
Chun Niang asked: "Isn't it very painful to work as a laborer?"
Jiang Sanlang shook his head: "Bu Nao is the focus of the work. It's the same for everyone there, so there's no need to suffer."
Chun Niang pinched her husband's arm distressedly, sighed, took a few eggs from the straw basket, and cracked them into the basin.
I scooped a few spoonfuls of flour into it and prepared to roll out egg noodles for my husband to eat.
At that moment, Ying Bao and her younger brother Jiang Wu ran in from outside and rushed towards their father when they saw him.
"Dad! He knew I was back." Ying Bao handed over a bag of snacks in her lap: "Then he and grandma are very fond of the chestnut cake that sister Dani just made. Let me try it."
During those confinement days, Yingbao took a few village children to buy all the chestnuts from their own chestnut trees, peeled the chestnuts, and made chestnut cakes in batches, waiting for Jiang Quan to take them when he came back.
For sale in the county.
Jiang Sanlang hugged his son Jiang Wu with one leg, and picked up a piece of chestnut cake with the other and took a bite.
Crispy on the outside and sweet and waxy in the core, very delicious.
"Not bad, chestnuts are really delicious cooked that way." Jiang Sanlang praised.
Ying Bao said proudly: "He learned this from a teacher at a snack shop in the county town. It is very popular in our shop."
In fact, the water she used to soak the chestnuts was from Tonghuan Spring, and she also used that water to make the noodles afterwards, so the taste was particularly sweet.
After finishing a few bites, Jiang Sanlang picked up another piece and asked, "How's the shop doing lately?"
"Very good. Golden fungus and snow fungus are also selling very well."
Only part of the high-quality golden ears sold to Zhou Mao this time was taken away by Jiang Quan, and the rest was taken to the county town and sold in a shop at a price of twenty taels per box, half a catty per box.
Snow fungus comes in a box of fifteen taels, or half a catty.
Because there are only a small number of golden fungus and snow fungus in existence, Yingbao told Jiang Quan not to worry about not being able to sell it, and that there will always be people who are willing to buy it on New Year's Day as soon as possible.
Jiang Sanlang: "He saw that the persimmons at home have been dried. When Erquan comes back in two days, he will go to the county town with him."
By the way, I took back the loom parts customized by my wife at the blacksmith shop.
"He will go too." Yingbao said, "It just so happens that there is nothing to do now. Sister Dani and Sister Erni both want to go to the county town for a stroll."
Ma was celebrating the New Year, and they all wanted to go to the county town to buy some pretty hairpins and hair flowers, and then see how the ladies in the county town were dressing up.
When Erni came back from the county town and talked about the scene in Wa City, Dani was filled with envy and wanted to go there for a long time. However, her family was very busy at that time and she never had time.
Jiang Sanlang smiled and said: "Okay, I will take them with me when the time comes."
"It's him! It's him!" Jiang Wu hadn't seen his brother Jiang Jie for a long time.
"Very good! Very me." Jiang Sanlang touched his son's head and looked at his wife.
Chun Niang knew what her husband meant, so she said, "He won't go. We have a lot of cotton at home. Let's spin it quickly during those few days. After a few months, everyone will go back to last year, and there will be no free time."
"That's fine." Jiang Sanlang also wanted to sell all the looms before the end of the year. Only when the money is enough can he make enough money.
The family had a good discussion, and on the third day Jiang Quan drove back and saw Ying Bao laughing. "Ying Bao, we're sending it!"
Yingbao asked: "Have all the golden ears and snow ears been sold?"
"Yeah!" Jiang Quan smiled from ear to ear and whispered:
"I don't know. That Dongmei is really capable. He promoted it to us for more than a month. It turned out that many people came here to look for it. The supply of gift boxes in our shop simply exceeded the demand.
Now the best pastry shops in the county are cooperating with us, providing new pastries to our shops every day and asking us to sell them for them."
Ying Bao was surprised and asked: "Did the eldest brother sign a contract with them?"
"Signed. The elder brother has clearly written down the ingredients for various pastries. If the ingredients used in their shop are not fresh or are inferior, his family must compensate our shop for double the loss."
"That's good." The cousin is indeed a shopkeeper.
Bu Nao...
Yingbao felt a little worried.
The most profitable items in the store, the golden fungus and snow fungus, are all sold out. It’s not a good sign that they are out of stock before the Chinese New Year.
Please, take out all the things you have in your cave?
No, no!
If it is left to the Wen family, it cannot be touched for the time being.
But no one from the Wen family has come to pick up the goods, so are we not ready to ask for them?
If you don't ask for help, you will keep it for the Wen family until a few days before the New Year. If no one comes to his house, you will sell all the golden fungus and snow fungus in the shop.
Yingbao received a letter from Sister Wen a few months ago.
Wen Shu said in the letter that something had happened to their family again, and she would like to go to Luzhou in a while, so that she could send a letter to Yuzhou without asking, but she would not be able to receive it.
Hey, I don’t know what’s going on with the Wen family. Things happen again and again, seemingly endlessly.
In the evening, Yingbao entered the cave.
There are several baskets of sun-dried golden fungus and snow fungus placed in the cave, totaling about forty kilograms.
In addition, the land around the pool was filled with mushroom jars, with more than a thousand jars in total.
Those jars were all accumulated little by little over the years, and they were already planted with golden fungus and snow fungus. It was estimated that the golden fungus and snow fungus would be ready to be harvested in a dozen days.
After harvesting, the mushrooms must be dried on bamboo boards in the cave. They will be dry in four or five days. Otherwise, Yingbao would have discovered the situation long ago.
After harvesting, the mushroom root base can continue to grow in the jar, which is more trouble-free.
If it is possible to expand the seeds, just bring in some more pots, fill them with nutrient medium and divide them.
But Yingbao doesn't want to divide any more strains, because there are already enough strains in her cave, and she doesn't even want to go to the port.
At present, apart from breeding and growing mushrooms, Yingbao does not plan to plant anything else on that land. What was originally planted on the land will be left to fend for itself, such as the cantaloupes, courgettes and various plants.
As for the plants on the top of the luminous body, Yingbao didn't check them, so they are probably growing well.
The next month, Jiang Sanlang took his children, two nieces and Jiang Quan into the county town. After sending them to the shop, he drove a carriage to pick up the customized items.
Jiang Quan took the persimmons and chestnut cakes he brought back to the backyard and asked Yingbao Dani and Erni to help weigh and pack them into boxes. He took his little cousin outside to buy delicious food.
The two brothers were eating and shopping. They bought a large bag of snacks and were walking back when they suddenly saw a group of people fighting at the entrance of an alley.
There were many people standing near the alley watching the excitement.
Jiang Quan took a few more curious glances, and that look shocked him.
It turned out that the two unlucky guys who were beaten were my aunt Jiang Yunniang and my uncle Zhang Jia.
There was also a young woman wearing heavy makeup standing nearby crying.
Then I saw my aunt Jiang Yunniang struggling to protect my uncle and crying: "Stop fighting! We beg to kill him..."
A big man with a sinister face sneered: "You deserve to be beaten to death! If you dare to seduce his daughter, he will die without mercy!"
"No! He didn't, but that woman seduced him first." Jiang Yunniang defended, opening her arms to tightly protect her husband.
When the man with a sinister face heard this, he became furious and punched and kicked Jiang Yunniang and Zhang Jia.
While beating and yelling: "Fuck my mother! What a lousy old man, how can his daughter seduce him like a young lady? Since I protect him so much, why don't you die with him? Please pay me the money! We
