[Red Chamber] Xiuyan is a little Shennong

Early in the morning, Xu Qing and his wife arrived at the county seat.

"Furniture doesn't matter." Xu Qingyi's wife, who is also Xing Xiuyan's eldest cousin, said, "Ordinary people go to work, and they roll up their bedding, and some sleep on the ground, besides, it's not a kang over there. Well, it’s almost done. Just ask your cousin to find a few pieces of wood and make a table for eating.”

Sister-in-law Xu knew in her heart that even though there were no other families in that area, there were so many people in the Xu family, so what if her husband was the eldest son of the house.The Xu family is a family of farming and studying, and they only look at scholars. It is not an easy task for the family to support several scholars.

Those who did not continue to study like Xu Qingyi, even if they divided the family property in the future, they would not be able to get many things. The main thing is to see if those in the family can study.

"If there is anything you want him to do, just let him do it." Mrs. Xu said, "Don't let him take the money for nothing, and it's the same with me. You're welcome."

Sister-in-law Xu thinks clearly, and her brothers settle accounts clearly.The Xu family had helped the Xing family before, so the Xing family entrusted these matters to the Xu family.If they are not clear-headed, then they will not be able to take more in the future.

"One penny a month, the elder sister-in-law and the elder cousin are two pennies." Xing Xiuyan didn't mean patriarchal, and besides, this is planting flowers, maybe women should be more careful.

They don't work every day, even if they have to stay there, they don't want to give too little.

A sling of money is 30 Wen, an average of more than 300 Wen a day, which may not seem like much, but it is not necessary to work every day.Some people come out to work and can earn dozens of renminbi a day. Xing Xiuyan sells pastries now and earns more than [-] renminbi on the first day. Five hundred texts.

The main reason is that no matter how delicate the snacks are, they are not rare products.

Xing Xiuyan intends to make some rose essence and sell it, women's money is the most profitable.

"It's just that my cousin has to come to the shop to help make dim sum recently." Xing Xiuyan said, "I'm not afraid that my cousin will learn her skills. If someone is around, I will be free to do other things."

It is impossible for Xing Xiuyan to make cakes by herself all the time. She has to buy essence, rouge, and skin care products. Those things are the only way to make money.As for these pastries, they are the icing on the cake, but I'm not afraid that Xu's cousin will learn it.

If Xu's sister-in-law really does a good job, it might not be okay to let her do it. That's what Xing Xiuyan thinks, and there must be some sweetness.

There is Mrs. Xu in charge, but if Xu's eldest cousin is smarter, she will know what to do.

"Second sister is fine at home, you can let her come over." Xu's eldest cousin said, "You don't need to give her money, just let her help and give her food."

Xu's eldest cousin didn't mention her natal family. What kind of relatives are her natal family and Xing's family?If you want to talk about it, of course it’s about your husband’s own sister. It’s not bad to learn some crafts and be a stutterer.

She is not too tactful, there is no need to be so hypocritical.

Xing Xiuyan gave a lot of money, enough to take care of four or five people.

The cousin of the Xu family can also see that Xing Xiuyan deliberately asked the Xu family to do it, and it is also a kindness.The second younger sister was much better than the other younger sisters, and the third younger sister thought it was impossible to marry those scholars who were rich and noble.

Even if the third sister really came over, she would use the Xing family as a springboard, live in the Xing family, and find another good family to marry.

"It's okay, let the second cousin live with you." Xing Xiuyan nodded, then the pastry shop will have enough manpower, and there is no need to hire another person for the time being, "Second sister spends half of the money every month, just care The shop here will do.”

"Hey." Mrs. Xu was in a good mood.

Xing Xiuyan prefers people who speak directly like sister-in-law Xu, and dislikes those who talk in circles.

After all, it's not easy to put a dim sum shop and a cosmetic shop together.

Xing Xiuyan originally thought about putting makeup on the second floor, but she still didn't plan to put it on.Besides, there are only a few Xing family members, so they may not be able to protect so many things.

So Xing Xiuyan simply took the prepared rose essence and crystal soap made of flowers to the powder shop in the county. Ruyi Pavilion is a famous powder shop in the county. This is just a branch shop, and there are other places.

If Xing Xiuyan opened a store to sell it himself, people might not believe it. The price is set too high, who is willing to spend money to buy it.

It's different when you arrive at the Ruyi Pavilion. After the people in the Ruyi Pavilion have a look, they will appraise it and sell it much easier.

"How much does the girl want to sell?" The shopkeeper had never seen such things as rose essence, but after seeing it, he knew it was a good thing.

"Essence, two taels of silver; this crystal soap is simple, just ten fen." Xing Xiuyan figured out that the essence is for those rich ladies. A bottle of two taels of silver can be used for several months, but the crystal soap just goes away. The civilian line, "If the shopkeeper is interested, the formula of this crystal soap is also for sale."

The shopkeeper really intends to buy the formula, but he wants to know more about the essence, "Is the essence formula not for sale?"

"It's not that I won't sell it, but I will sell it to you, and it will be difficult for you to make it." Xing Xiuyan said, "You also need special tools, and you also need to pay attention to the flowers."

The shopkeeper thought it was difficult, "The formula of this soap cannot be sold at a high price. If you are willing to sell the formula for this essence, I can give you 500 taels of silver, and I will give you a [-]% profit later."

This shopkeeper has sharp eyesight, and he believes that as long as this essence is done well, it will be easy to make money in the future.Xing Xiuyan is alone, how can he make so many things to sell.

"But what you do is not necessarily better than mine." Xing Xiuyan said again.

"It doesn't matter, the price will be different at that time." The shrewd shopkeeper said, "If you do it, [-]% of the profit will belong to you, and the second will be our errands."

"..." Xing Xiuyan thought that he was not a koi, and he had no luck with koi, so why did this person just say these words when he saw it.

"I'm not going to hide it from you, Ruyi Pavilion is the property of Jiang's family." The shopkeeper said, "Master Jiang went to Qin's family a few days ago and heard that your family grows good flowers and wants to sell some things related to flowers. Let me wait and see, no, the girl is here."

When Mrs. Jiang was young, he made the Jiang family's business very big, traveling all over the world.The old man Jiang felt very strange when he saw the Eighteen Scholars, not to mention it was dug from the mountains, who would believe it, and after eating sweet-scented osmanthus cakes and other snacks, the old man Jiang thought that Xing Xiuyan might have a talent for planting and making flowers .

There are many talented people in certain aspects in the world, and whether they can seize the opportunity is the most important thing.

Mrs. Jiang didn't think too much about cakes and the like. The focus was on those rare flowers and cosmetics.Someone once made high-priced makeup powder, claiming that money is hard to find, but this kind of thing is just a gimmick.

"Yes." Xing Xiuyan's cheeks felt a little hot, a little embarrassed, because she underestimated these ancient people.

Where is my infinite charm, where is my koi luck, it is because people have already been eyeing me.

"In addition to making roses, you can also make other things." Xing Xiuyan said.

Xing Xiuyan sighed, as if half of her career had been cut short, and she seemed to have taken a big step forward.Will she still have to fight in the future, or just take dry shares?

But don't wait for dividends, you still have to have your own way of life.

It may not be necessary to open a shop to sell those things by herself, she can't spare her hands, and she can't prepare so many by herself.In her previous life, she opened a Taobao store by herself and sold her own products, without mass production.

The effect of things produced in large quantities is not so good, and it is impossible for her to prepare so many nutrient solutions to grow flowers, so it can only be done on a small scale.

It was small-scale in later generations, how could it become large-scale in ancient times.

Xing Xiuyan thought that she had really thought too much, so she took her time step by step.

In Rongguo Mansion, the Xing family received a letter from the Xing family, and also received things from the Xing family, including dried fruit, dried scented tea, and a bottle.As for the pastries that were not easy to store, they were not sent, and it was impossible to put money in them.

"It's really good. I should take care of my younger brother." Xing frowned. Xing Xiuyan's parents are Xing's brother and sister-in-law. Xing also has a younger brother and two younger sisters.When she got married, she took almost all the family property away, and she would take care of her younger brother on weekdays.

As for Xing Xiuyan's parents and the Xing family, they are really not that close. Xing's father, Xing Zhong, was born to his wife, while Xing and her younger brother were born to his second wife.

Back then, Father Xing's father didn't say much about asking him, the eldest brother, to be more considerate of his younger siblings. Even though Father Xing had been very down and out these years, he didn't think about looking for Xing.

Xing thought that his younger brother had achieved nothing, and he hadn't talked about marriage yet, so this is what people should worry about.

"As an elder brother, you should be more patient." Xing put the letter aside, and it is good that the brother and sister-in-law's family did not come to seek refuge with her.Where does she have so much money to support those people, she still has to save some money.

The Qin family in the Ningguo Mansion next door is ill, and the imperial doctor is still not recovering.But Lin Ruhai in Yangzhou was seriously ill again, so Jia Lian had to escort Lin Daiyu to Yangzhou.

The Xing family never cared about these things, she didn't care about the middle class, she had no children under her knees, and those people had no blood relationship with her.Don't worry about what to do so much, so as not to make people feel that her hands are stretched too far.

Wang Xifeng also received dried fruit and scented tea from the Xing family, as well as a bottle of rose essence.Wang Xifeng has a lot of dowries, and also has a lot of rare things in her hands. Those dried fruits and scented teas are not unusual, so she is curious about this bottle of rose essence.

"Well, it really has a faint floral fragrance." Wang Xifeng opened the bottle and smelled a faint floral fragrance, which is not very strong, and it is estimated that it will be even fainter when it is applied to the face.

It's just that the Xing family's situation, what good things can you buy?

"Stretch out your hand." Wang Xifeng simply tried it on the back of Ping'er's hand first, "How does it feel?"

"It's quite comfortable." Ping'er said, "It's just a little sticky."

"It has to be rubbed open." Wang Xifeng patted Ping'er's hand lightly, "It is said that it took hundreds of roses to make such a small amount."

Wang Xifeng had never met Xing Xiuyan before, so she thought it would not be unusual for half-grown girls to make these things, and girls in the mansion would also make rouge.It’s just that they are all for their own use, and they don’t make many, so they basically buy them from outside.

The Xing family was so impoverished, it was normal for them to give away the things they made themselves, so Wang Xifeng didn't care too much.It's just that the Xing family sent it, so it's not easy to use it, just smear it on your hands, it's not easy to use these things casually on your face.
