After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

That day, Yan Qingqing was teasing Li Xiangyang. The weather had warmed up, and the little guy was wearing less clothes and was looking smarter. The little girl could already sit. Madam Ren said with a smile: "The little lady is very smart. She is only five years old." Yue is already sitting so firmly."

Yan Qingqing sneered when he heard this and said: "I didn't realize how smart he was. I'm afraid he will be a skinny monkey in the future."

Yan Qingqing's words are not unfounded. This girl was so well-behaved in the first two months after she was born. Now she is very noisy and full of energy all day long. This is thanks to Mrs. Ren who is helping her, otherwise she would still be able to do it herself. It's so busy.

Madam Ren smiled and said: "Lively and active children are smart. The young masters and ladies in our family are all very smart. The little miss is definitely not bad."

Just as Yan Qingqing was about to speak, she saw Yuan Huiniang walking in with Jinxiu. Yan Qingqing waved to Jinxiu and said, "You are right, our little lady is smart, isn't she, grandma's good granddaughter."

According to seniority, Jinxiu is the youngest lady in the family, but because Li Xiangyang is young, the servants usually call Li Xiangyang the little miss, Jinxiu the young lady, and Xinniang and Yueniang the eldest lady and the second lady. Yan Qingqing doesn’t know them either. No one was going to correct it anyway.

When Li Xiangyang saw his mother hugging Li Jinxiu instead of hugging him, she opened her mouth and started crying loudly. How could Yan Qingqing, her own child, not understand what Li Xiangyang meant, so she gave Mrs. Ren a With a look, Mrs. Ren quickly hugged Li Xiangyang into Yan Qingqing's arms.

The little girl who was crying suddenly stopped when she saw her mother hugging her. Yan Qingqing found it a bit funny. This girl could laugh and cry easily. She was definitely a good actress.

Yan Qingqing saw Yuan Huiniang on the side and stopped talking several times before asking: "What's the matter? But there is something that can't be dealt with."

Yuan Huiniang then said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that the hens and ducks in our house have started to lay eggs, and we can't finish eating at all. There are thousands of eggs and duck eggs stored in the kitchen.

Aunt He just came to ask me what to do with these eggs and duck eggs. Our family will definitely be unable to finish them all. And now the more you save, the more it will get damaged over time.

I was thinking about taking it to the market and selling it. "

Yan Qingqing heard that it was because of this matter, so she said: "Okay, you don't have to worry about this matter. I will solve it."

Yan Qingqing originally planned to pickle part of these duck eggs to make salted duck eggs, and use part to make preserved eggs or preserved eggs. As for the eggs, part of them will be used in the shop, and she plans to process the rest into dried eggs after the food workshop is built.

However, to pickle salted duck eggs, a batch of custom jars were needed. Thinking of this, Yan Qingqing asked Ruyi to call A over.

Although Ah Da was initially assigned to Li Xiangping, Li Xiangping knew that Yan Qingqing could not live without people, and Ah Da was the most stable among the few boys in the family. Ah Er followed Li Xiangan in business, so Li Xiangping generally They would take Ah San and Ah Si to the fields. Anyway, Li Xiangjian and Li Xiangkang don't need a servant now.

Ah Da bowed to Yan Qingqing and asked, "Does Madam have any instructions for calling me here?"

Yan Qingqing replied: "Go to the city and order a batch of jars. First, you need [-] jars, which can hold about fifty duck eggs. Let them deliver the first batch of goods within three days. Each jar will have something on it. It needs to have the Canghe Liji logo, and if their price is right, we can have long-term cooperation in the future.”

After hearing this, Ada quickly agreed. He knew that Madam asked him to do this to cultivate and test him. Thinking of this, Ada was extremely excited. They had been counting on their master to reuse them all their lives as servants. Now, The master has just started his career. If he behaves well, he will always have a place in this family in the future.

Ada took the money Yuan Huiniang gave him and went to do his errands seriously.

After Yuan Huiniang paid Ada money, she asked: "Mom, are you trying to cultivate Ada?"

Yan Qingqing nodded and replied: "Ada is steady and decisive. We also need a manager outside. We can't just let the boss and the others handle everything.

You also need to cultivate a few capable helpers in the yard, so pay attention to them yourself. "

Yuan Huiniang nodded after hearing this. She also had such thoughts.

In the afternoon, Ada came back from the city, holding two jars in his arms. As soon as he came back, he went to Yan Qingqing to reply.

Ah Da handed the two jars to Yan Qingqing and said: "Madam, I found three shops that sell jars, one of which bakes them by myself, and the price is cheaper than other shops.

This one with good quality sells for fifteen cents each in their shop, and the one with worse quality sells for twelve cents each. We want a large quantity, and the first batch of orders is three thousand, so the boss said to give us the cost price, this one with good quality It only costs twelve cents, and this one of inferior quality costs eight cents.

I thought that my wife always pursues quality when doing business, so I ordered this one with better quality from the boss, but I also brought back this one with poor quality. If my wife thinks the cost is too high, we can make the next batch. Goods can be exchanged at any time.

Also, the jars we want need to be marked with the words "Canghe Li Ji", and they need to re-open the molds and bake them. They can send a thousand of them in three days. The younger one gave them a deposit of two taels of silver.

Madam, please take a look at these receipts they issued. "

Yan Qingqing didn't receive the receipt but just looked at the quality of the two jars. The good one was obviously very thick, and the customer could use it as a storage jar after buying it.

Yan Qingqing was very satisfied with Ah Da's work and praised him without hesitation: "Well done, I will leave you fully responsible for ordering the jars from now on. Work hard and don't live up to my expectations of you. "

Ada's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing this and he said excitedly: "Madam, don't worry, I will definitely live up to my expectations."

Yan Qingqing waved her hand and asked Ada to go down and rest first. She took out her pen and ink and started writing about the methods and processes of making salted duck eggs and preserved eggs.

Yan Qingqing knew very well that sooner or later, this business would have to be produced in a food processing workshop, but the core formula could not be leaked.

After Yan Qingqing finished writing all the things he needed, he called Yuan Huiniang and said to her: "Our food processing workshop has not been built yet, and we need to process the eggs and duck eggs ourselves first.

You go tell the rough ladies in each yard and ask them to gather in the vacant yard at a fixed time every day. I will teach them personally how to do it.

These are the materials needed to make duck eggs. You will have them purchased in the next two days, and we will start work as soon as the jars arrive. "
