Leisurely Daily [System]

Jiang Lian woke up for a while, today is the day when Xueyang flowers are harvested, and it is also the day when the face cream workshop starts.

Her husband, Zhang Mao, was still sleeping. He had been working on the mountain every day recently, and it was not easy. Jiang Lian usually waited until he was almost asleep before waking him up.

However, the work Zhang Mao had found outside was not easy, and the wages were lower than this time.

Jiang Lian lay on the bed for a while, and then turned over when she heard movement outside the house.

In the yard, Jiang Chen, Jiang Lian's mother, was holding scissors, carefully cutting off a flower and putting it in the basket beside her.

"Mother, let me come." Jiang Lian walked over and said.

Jiang Chen handed her the scissors, "Okay, I'll cook."

Jiang Lian and Zhang Mao lived here, and they gave food expenses. At first, Jiang Hai and Jiang Chen didn't want it, but Jiang Lian's plan was that after the Jiang family's hills were cleaned up and things were planted on the hills, they would definitely need help. For management, when I see it, can I find a long-term job for Zhang Mao here? If it does, then I will spend more time living in my mother's house in the future, so the food expenses must be paid.

It still takes a lot of time to cut more than 1000 flowers in a sub-field. After Jiang Lian was cut for a while, Zhang Mao came out, and after a while, Jiang Hai also rose.Jiang Hai's family needs to cut lotus pods every year, so there are a lot of scissors in the house, and the meal is not ready, so the three of them each stand with a pair of scissors and a basket, busy in a different place.

When Mrs. Jiang Chen finished the meal, half of the flowers were still uncut. Mrs. Jiang Chen urged them to eat quickly. Seeing that it was dawn, don't delay going to work. She would cut the flowers after eating.

Although the scent of Xueyang flowers is light, Jiang Lian has stood in the flower field for so long, and it is inevitable that some smell is on her body, as if she has been rubbed with face powder.

After dinner, Zhang Mao and her father-in-law left first. Jiang Lian tied up her hair at home and put on a headgear. Before going out, she checked her nails to make sure they were well trimmed.

Gu Fangqiu gave them a few face masks. They put their hair inside when they were working so that the hair would not stain the face. They were required to wash their hair, take a shower and change their clothes every day, even in winter. It is also best to wash and change frequently when you have work; you should not keep nails on your hands, so as not to stain the face with dirt.

Recently, in the village, every morning at this time, because of going to work, the roads are bustling with activity.On the way Jiang Lian went to Mianzhifang, she also saw many people in their own flower fields, old people or half-grown boys and girls, all holding scissors to cut flowers.

On the way, they met Gao and Gao, and Jiang Lian went with them.

In the noodle workshop, after everyone arrived, Gu Fangqiu began to instruct them how to handle the ingredients, what order to add them, how to pay attention to the heat when boiling or steaming, and how to put the finished product into porcelain. in the box.These things need to be familiar with at least a few days before they can get started.

When Jiang Lian and the others were learning how to make noodles, a simple sunshade tent was built in the wide open space outside the noodles workshop. The big dustpan is used to put the flowers that will be harvested later.When harvesting, they also need to give money. Jiang Fan deliberately exchanged more than 40 silver ingots of one tael and some scattered copper coins by his side.

Zhang Shumo and Gu Changqing were not there, and Jiang Fan recruited four adult boys from Hongjia Village through the Hongjia sisters as temporary workers to help him collect flower petals.

Jiang Fan sat outside for a while, and then some villagers began to come here carrying or carrying baskets of flowers. Everyone lined up, and some people couldn't bring them all at once, so they took a seat and went back to get them.

An eight or nine-year-old boy came here to help his grandma carry flowers for the second time. His family came first, so he was the first in line, and he shouted at Jiang Fan, "Master Jiang, grandma and I are here to talk to each other." Flowers!"

"I'll weigh it for you." Jiang Fan smiled at him.

The two Hong family boys beside him went over to help unload the baskets and weigh them, and reported the number: "One basket is 58 catties, and one basket is 52 catties."

Jiang Fan wrote down the number of words, and the two boys here took an empty basket prepared by Jiang Fan, poured the flowers into it, and put it aside.

After that, Jiang Fan calculated the silver according to the weight.

"The head of the household, Li Yongfu, has a total of 110 catties, twelve coins per catty, and a total price of 320 coins."

Jiang Fan took a tael of silver ingots from the basket at his feet and weighed them. After the other party had seen a lot, he took three strings and twenty scattered copper coins and handed them to the other party.The other party has received the money, pressed the fingerprint, and the transaction is over.

Here, not only the villagers who came to hand in flowers, but also those who didn’t grow flowers and didn’t go to work and stayed by to watch the fun, listened to the number reported by Jiang Fan, their eyes widened——God, it’s really worth it! money!

The other villagers who were still waiting in line to hand in the flowers were all smiling, wiping the sweat from their foreheads, feeling that the sun above their heads was no longer shining.

"Grandma, a lot of money!" The little boy happily clapped and jumped on the spot.

The old lady who received the money beamed with joy, put the silver ingots in her chest and put the copper coins into the basket, and carried the basket and took her grandson home happily.

35 households, the first batch of flowers harvested a total of more than 3000 catties, and Jiang Fan gave almost 45 taels of silver.These are fresh flower petals, which need to be dried and preserved. Three catties of fresh petals are equivalent to one catty of dried petals. In this way, Jiang Fan has more than 1000 catties of dried petals this time.

Boss Zhou’s kiln is a folk kiln, and the porcelain produced is only used by ordinary bosses, so it is not expensive. The porcelain box he ordered is of good quality, about 50 grams. capacity.Jiangjia facial fat and Xueyanghua are the finishing touches, and other materials are simple and common, and very cheap.The lowest grade of Jiaoyan powder or Jiaoyan ointment, one catty of dried petals plus other materials, can get fifty boxes. The price set by Jiang Fan for this type is [-] Wen per box. He can get at least one thousand Wen, which is a profit of one tael of silver.

As for the other two grades, the amount of petals used is not much increased, but the effect on the skin is quite different.You can get about thirty boxes of second-class dry petals per catty, and about fifteen boxes for first-class ones, but the price he raised is not just a few dozen coins, the higher the rank, the greater the profit.

After working for most of the morning, Jiang Fan collected all the flowers.Liu Yufen and Jiang Chen did not leave after handing over the flowers, and drove their grandchildren to a shaded place to wait. The two put down the big dustpans one by one, spread the soft cloth Jiang Fan bought on them, and put them in the baskets. Sprinkle the flowers in and arrange them evenly.

Because this job does not need to be watched all the time, it is easy, so Jiang Fan gave each of them [-] Wen a day, including drying and harvesting. If the weather is good, it only takes two or three days.When they were away, there were Gu Fangqiu and others in the noodle workshop, and the window was facing the flat land. He also brought the two puppies to squat at the entrance of the noodle workshop and stared at it, not afraid of anyone who would make trouble.

Jiang Fan stayed outside all morning, and it was extremely hot. He felt that everything was fine in this world, except that there was no air conditioner.A few days ago, he contacted Jixuan, wanting to ask him if there were any trees and flowers that would be warm in winter and cool in summer, but Jixuan didn't know what to do, so he left a message saying that he had something to go out and never believed him.He walked home quickly under the sun, and once again felt that there were too few people around him. Gu Changqing and Zhang Shumo went to the county to talk about things, and there was no one around him. There were not many literate people in the village, so he had to go outside to find talents.

Before Jiang Fan entered the house, he saw a few old men and old ladies standing or squatting at the door. Seeing him coming back, they all looked over eagerly.

"Master Jiang!"

"Master Jiang, you are back."

Jiang Fan smiled at them, didn't reply, opened the fence door and went in.

Don't think about it, it must be the remaining villagers who didn't want to take the risk of planting flowers. This time, seeing that they actually got the money, they couldn't sit still.If you don't want to plant, don't plant. If you want to plant, plant it. There are not so many things that can be taken for granted in this world. If their wish is fulfilled, Jiang Fan will be very easy to control in the eyes of these people.

Those people didn't come out when they saw Jiang Fan entered the house. The dumb man was fetching water and grapes from the well, but he didn't turn his eyes to this side. It was really hot standing under the sun. After squatting for a while, I had no choice but to walk away in embarrassment.

"It's really hot." Jiang Fan, who was only wearing his underwear, sat at the desk in his room by the window, eating the grapes brought by Uncle Zhang, and took a long rest before recovering.

It used to be such a hot day, if he stayed outside for so long, his face would have been itchy, but after using Xueyanghua for so long, allergies and so on are already a thing of the past. Even Gu Changqing and Zhang Shumo and Zhang Shumo, because they apply Xueyanghua to their faces every day, they have not seen dark for so long, and they have turned a lot whiter.

When Gu Yuantao comes back tomorrow, there should be a lot of beauty fans at home. When he goes to the academy again, he has to take a box.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, the day's work of the noodle workshop was over, and the petals that were about to dry were collected, and together with the finished noodle cream products, they were transported to Jiang's yard for storage. The tools and other things are not put away, so there is no need to keep people for the time being.

Because it is still in the familiarization stage, there are not many finished products of face cream today, and the color of powder and cream is not as good as that made by Gu Fangqiu before, especially the first batch, which can only be kept as gifts or distributed as employee benefits up.

It was almost dark when Gu Changqing and Zhang Shumo came back.

Jiang Fan collects more than 1000 catties of petals at a time, and the shops in the town alone can't digest it all. Jiang Fan puts his sights on the county town, and beyond the county town, and further places, such as Shangjing.

The author has something to say:

In the previous 28 chapters, it was written that one cent land collected one hundred catties of flowers, ten flowers per catty, but I made a mistake and wrote one cent land only picked one hundred flowers at a time, and changed it back to one thousand flowers.Then I can't find out the price or something, so I just made up nonsense, don't mind! ! !
