The existing greenhouse is enough for her to keep busy, but if we add more, it may be too much.
She went back and asked the old man if she could leave two of his men for her to use.
Not long after, Su Xin came back.
As soon as she came back, before she had time to report how much hot sauce Juanzi and others had made, Luo Jiaochu said happily: "Suxin, Shiqing has given birth to a son. He was born in June. Counting the number of children, there will be three."
It’s a month.”
While she was talking, she took out the portrait and showed it to Su Xin.
She now desperately needs to share her joy with everyone.
Hearing this, Su Xin took the portrait and said with a smile: "Congratulations, madam. Congratulations, madam, you finally got your wish. The young lady has given birth to a son, and her position will be secure in the future. Madam, you don't have to worry now."
"Hmm, Shiqing is a blessed child! Su Xin, look at Nian'an's appearance. Do her eyebrows and eyebrows look like those when Shiqing was born? Although I just took a look at her after she was born, she was just a little bit smaller.
Tuan, I haven’t studied in Anda yet, but I will always remember her appearance.”
As Luo Jiaochao spoke, she reached out and touched Nian An in the portrait, with strong memories in her eyes, as if she had seen the poetry of that year, and she was touching the poetry at this moment.
Su Xin couldn't see why, but since the lady said so, it was naturally right.
"Well, it looks like she is the same as the young lady. They both say that son is like mother. This is absolutely true."
"Really? I think so too."
Luo Jiaochi felt happy in her heart, and then changed the topic: "Have you asked clearly, who are there, how many people have done it, and it is cured? If it is cured, I would have asked someone to pretend it earlier and send it to Shiqing.
When Nanny Ruan was here before, she said that the child liked to eat these things."
"It will be done in about two days. There are many people who have done it. Madam didn't say much at first, so Grandma Ruan asked everyone she knew to do it. I think it's probably several thousand kilograms, and there are as many as eight hundred or so people.
Jin, sometimes as much as one or two hundred kilograms. I heard that they didn’t grow enough peppers themselves, so they went to other villages to harvest a lot to make them.”
Luo Jiaochu paused after hearing this, "How much does it cost for a few thousand kilograms? I'm afraid that I won't be lucky enough to go to Hongwu Kingdom by then, right?"
Seeing her lowering her head in deep thought, Su Xin said, "Madam, I have inquired about it. One kilogram of that hot sauce costs 80 coins in the county."
Luo Jiaocheng has been here for a long time. Even if he doesn't know how to make money, he still understands some concepts.
"Sixty yuan, how can it be so expensive?"
"It's troublesome to make the chili sauce. They say you have to make the soybean paste yourself first, and then use chili peppers, sugar, and some pork to make it together. These costs add up, but it's not cheap."
Eighty cents, even if calculated as two thousand catties, they would have to spend one hundred and sixty taels. Isn't this too much?
"Is it all with meat added?"
"Um!"
I asked this question, and it was said that Shiqing likes to add meat, so it is a bit more expensive.
By doing this, according to the price charged by the county, they can make a lot of money per pound, so those who do it try to make as much as possible.
After all, except for the required candies and meats that need to be bought, everything else is made at home or produced in the field, so the cost is not high.
In addition, Mrs. Ruan didn't say how much she wanted at the beginning, she just told them to just do it and the price would be based on what the county charges.
Why don't they do more of such a profitable business?
"Okay, if you want to collect it later, just ask Qingmu to go with you and pay. Once it's ready, transport it directly to Rongcheng."
Su Xin knew how much money Aoki had on hand, so she said: "Madam, I'm afraid Aoki doesn't have that much money on hand."
Luo Jiaocheng paused after hearing this and looked puzzled: "Why is it not enough? Where did he use it? When Shiqing left, didn't she give him the expenses for the past two years?"
She didn't understand anything about Luo Jiaochu, so Su Xin felt a little helpless, so she had to say: "The young lady gave me two hundred taels at the beginning, but all the expenses of our house are included in it, so how can it be enough? From the twelfth lunar month of last year until now
, the money for everyone in our family, including Xiangtao, all comes from Qingmu. In addition to the purchase of things for the New Year and festivals, plus the weddings and funerals in the village, and the Jiang family’s festival etiquette, all these expenses are included in it.
I think it’s pretty good that Aoki can survive until now.”
"What you said is wrong. Doesn't the family have other sources of income?"
Su Xin found that her wife really didn't care about her family and didn't care about anything. Her mistress thought she was like this and there was no one else.
"Madam, my family has other income. The medical clinic itself does not collect much money. Most of it is used to buy medicinal materials. If there is excess, it is used to buy land. As for the money in Xiangtao before, then
When the potatoes are grown, they are distributed to other places. Forget about this area. The money earned from other vegetables is also used to buy land. Ask Mr. Bai about the income from the paddy fields this year. He knows best. Except for that
Jasmine’s income was given for a few months, but nothing else.”
Luo Jiao was planning to save all the money she had around her as a dowry for Shi Qing. Now when she heard this, she couldn't believe it.
But after seeing Su Xin nodding, she exhaled: "It seems that I have to take charge of the future expenses of this family. This year, it has been really difficult for Aoki." xdw8
She said, went back to the room and took out three hundred taels of silver notes: "You go to the town to exchange for silver, and come back and get the money for Qingmu. Starting from October, you have to call me every month for the income and expenditure of the house.
I know. I have to know the purpose of every piece of money. Since the villagers have made so much hot sauce, we will collect them all first. If the money is not enough, come to me."
"Yes, ma'am!"
When Qingmu saw Su Xin bringing over three hundred taels of silver, he was very moved: "Thank you Aunt Su Xin!"
Su Xin waved her hand: "Madam said that starting from October, she will know every income and expenditure in this house. If you need money later, please report to Madam."
"Okay, I have the account book here, and I will send it to Madam later."
The fact that Yan Shiqing is pregnant is a pregnancy out of wedlock.
Even if you get engaged, it's not a glorious thing.
No one in Ruanjiakeng knew about it, so the fact that she was giving birth to a child was only known to the family and was not publicized.
People in Ruanjiakeng saw that in the past two days, people in the Bai Mansion took out money and started collecting chili sauce. Anyone who did it would have made a fortune.
After deducting the cost of spending money, some people have nearly two taels of silver, and some have five taels.
Excluding the homemade soybean paste, the profit is even higher.
In previous years, the Ruan family had trouble saving even one tael of silver. This year, they followed the paddy field farmers, and together they earned six or seven taels more than in previous years.
This makes those who work with the White House even more determined.
