Don't move, this child bride is not easy to mess with.

When these people signed the contract, they had no monthly money. The Su family can give it to them if they want, and they have nothing to say if they don't. They are just asking for a place where they can have enough to eat.

Of course, generally, if the owner's family is financially better off, they will always give them some monthly money to give them hope of redeeming themselves, so that they can work more attentively.

Su Mulan herself was a child bride and had served the Chen family for eight years. She only needed a tael of silver to escape.

Wages? I would be grateful to the Chen family if I could give them a full meal.

Su Mulan had such experience, so she would not treat these servants harshly. Even though they were just rough messengers, she still promised to give them monthly money.

The four girls earn two hundred coppers a month and are responsible for sweeping the houses in the inner courtyard. One person is responsible for the main room, the east and west wing rooms, and the back room.

Since Hong was good at cooking, Su Mulan made her the cook. Her monthly salary is the highest, but it is 500 yuan. Hong's mother, Zhu, works as a cook and earns three hundred a month.

Mrs. Yu was good at needlework, so she was assigned to be responsible for sewing and mending the whole family. She lived in the outer courtyard and served as a messenger for Mrs. Yu.

Considering that Mrs. Yu didn't dare to use Ye Wu, Su Mulan gave Mrs. Yu another servant girl, Sister-in-law Tang, who seemed to be a simple and honest servant, to follow her orders.

Mrs. Yu and Sister-in-law Tang also earn three hundred a month.

Ye Wu was transferred to the main room by Su Mulan to accompany Ye Yu.

Mrs. Yu smiled again and asked her to name a few girls. Su Mulan didn't bother to bother, so she ranked them after Ye Yu and called them Qi'er, Ba'er, Jiu'er, and Shi'er.

Everyone wanted to laugh when they heard it, but they didn't dare to laugh. Everyone was holding it in very hard. Several new girls did not dare to say anything. They all respectfully promised to formally meet the masters of the Su family.

Jiu'er is Hong's daughter and Zhu's granddaughter. Although the three have different deacons, they are all in the east wing. Just because the kitchen is located in the ear room of the east chamber.

Ye Yu is still the girl in charge, responsible for collecting money from Su Xier every month and giving monthly money to everyone. Ye Wu serves as Ye Yu's deputy.

Now that there was a serious cook, Ye Yun and Ye Yue were transferred by Su Mulan to take charge of the back room, take care of the Su family's warehouse and take care of the succulent plants.

The personnel in the inner court were all assigned clearly by Su Mulan, and everyone performed their duties without anyone dissatisfied.

Now that everyone has clear tasks and responsibilities, they can settle down and go about their business.

In the outer courtyard, Yang Xiaowu has a calm temperament, steady speech, hardworking and simple, so he is very suitable as a doorman.

Although Yang Xiaoyao has never read a book, he is somewhat smart and has already followed Su Xiaobai and Li Fan to Gaoyang Academy. Su Xiaobai handled the admission documents, while Li Fan had to take the exam alone.

Yang Jing carefully looked at several shops yesterday, and explained the price, shop size, etc. in detail. Su Mulan decided on a place and asked Wang Sanhai to accompany her to rent the shop.

Su Mulan made arrangements for everyone in the inner courtyard, and Yang Jing came back happily with the contract. Now that she had rented the shop, Su Mulan gave her braised vegetables, kimchi, and pickled vegetable recipes.

Yang Jing received the silver and prescriptions, and went out to buy in a hurry. Su Mulan gave her 500 monthly wages and promised 1% of the shares. How could she not be full of energy?

The combined wages of the people in the outer court and the inner court cost eight taels of silver every month. Su Mulan thought for a while and decided to give Yu, Xi'er and Xiaobai monthly money, four taels each.

In this way, the annual monthly expenditure is two hundred taels. For the time being, these people are enough.

Qing Niu and Agent Lin's wages and salaries are paid by the county government, so she doesn't need to take care of them.

The only exception is Li Fan. Su Mulan paying his tuition is considered an investment. Asking him to work as a bookkeeper and accompany you as a student for a year will cost you twelve taels of silver.

But Su Mulan didn't expect that the tuition fees at Gaoyang Academy were so expensive. Even if Li Fan passed the exam, it would cost two hundred taels of silver a year.

This is not counting the other expenses the two of them spent in the academy. Studying is indeed not affordable for ordinary families.

Qing Niu had already gone to the county government office early today, and Jiang Chengyan arranged for him to be on duty. Because he had to manage the soap class for Xie Chengan, he stayed in the county government office instead of going back to Su's house.

After arranging everyone, it was noon, Su Mulan took a short rest and thought about ways to make money.

She had tried all the pastries that Ye Yu brought back in the morning, but found them to be average in taste and lacking in variety.

This is not to say that there are no better pastries, but the more sophisticated ones are beyond the reach of ordinary wealthy households, let alone ordinary people.

Moreover, these pastries are mostly steamed and fried, but there is no baking method. This gave Su Mulan a chance.

Just do whatever you think of. Although there is no task of making money now, who would make money and bite their hands?

There is no rush to govern Anlan County, and besides, she is just assisting Xie Chengan. It seems that the county magistrate has been very busy for a while, so he might as well think about some ways to make money during this time.

If you want to bake and eat food, you first need an oven. You don’t have to think about a modern oven, there is a refrigerator in the space.

If there are no conditions, then create conditions.

Su Mulan sorted out her thoughts, first wrote a list, and then asked Ye Yu to take Wang's fourth and fifth children to buy.

Wang San'er needs to follow Yang Jing to work on the braised vegetable shop these two days.

Because these two people were illiterate, they had to let Ye Yu do the shopping, and the two of them were responsible for transporting the items on the list back.

Ye Yu needs to go to a geotechnical company first and hire two masons to make a double-layered oven using native methods. Then go to the coal store to buy some charcoal and bring it back. The temperature is higher than that of firewood and there is less smoke.

Then, find a blacksmith to build several grills and oven doors according to Sumulan's drawings.

Finally, go to a noodle shop, fruit shop, medicine shop, grain and oil shop, etc. to buy some raw materials for making cakes.

As for milk, there is a refrigerator in the space, so there is no need to spend money on it for the time being.

Just because milk is relatively valuable in Anlan County, and most of it has been made into dairy products for wealthy people to eat.

Sugar, eggs, butter, yeast, etc. are also essential. There are two types of yeast here, called wheat koji and rice koji due to different raw materials.

For fillings, also buy some meat floss, bean paste and the like for later use. Thanks to the fact that the previous dynasty was a nomadic people, the people of this dynasty also had meat floss and cheese to eat.

It is said that meat floss was a unique military ration of the previous dynasty and played an extremely important role in its conquests from all over the world.

Cook the beef over high heat, add the ingredients and cook until tender. Drain the meat and knead it into thin shreds with your hands. Then fry it in a pan to dry it, and then knead it into a finer velvet shape.

This kind of meat floss, combined with milk and mare's milk, provides soldiers with enough calories to fight, so they naturally have outstanding combat power.

Of course, this dynasty attaches great importance to cattle farming, so it is natural that beef will not be used to make meat floss. Pork is usually used instead, and the taste is not bad.

Although meat floss is made from pork, it is still quite expensive and not affordable for ordinary people. Sumulan was only bought as stuffing to make meat floss scones.
