Civilian Edition Traveling Farming Diary

This morning, Tang Zhifu asked someone to call me, I went to have a look, and the experts came back!

These people are really amazing. They reported their work to the emperor on New Year's Eve, the emperor gave instructions on the first day of the new year, and they set off to run here on the second day of the new year. They didn't spend the New Year at home and sacrificed their vacation. In order to promote the greenhouse.

I admire them, really, these are all true pillars of the country.

The prefect of Tang told me some of the emperor's intentions, mainly in three aspects.

The first is the greenhouse. People from all over the country will come to Fengzhou for inspection and study. The sooner the better, it is estimated that the first group of people will arrive in a few days. Among these people are officials and landlords. There are civilians, as long as they want to learn, they can learn.

The second is the expo. The emperor approved it. The requirement is that as long as it does not exceed the regulations, the bigger and more lively the better, consider extending the time of the expo to give more time to the businessmen who want to do business here. The state's economy will recover soon, and Master Tang will be required to sum up the experience, so that other places can refer to it at that time.

The third is that I did not expect that the emperor opened Enke ahead of schedule, and the rural examination will be held this autumn, followed by the general examination in the spring of next year, which is the meaning of God.I guess it's not easy to violate the ancestral system, and through the matter of the greenhouse, God was invited to speak out again.

The prefect of Tang admired the emperor. He said that the emperor's heart was all about people's livelihood and the community. He had undertaken a lot and broken many regulations for the people to survive the coming disaster year.

I think he is really good at this point. His ancestors are buried in the ground, so there is no need to drag the people of the whole country to be buried with such a corpse.

The fair is set for early March and we have just over a month left.

God, when will there be enough time for everything, why is time always so tight.

I hurried to Banzhang Liuguang, and now Banzhang Liuguang went to Xiaoxin once, the fan sold well, and made a small profit.

Now they want to reject all orders and concentrate on making products for the expo.

The inn has already been installed these days. Mr. Feng and I put the books, pen holders and so on today, and then we need to recruit people.

The cook, the accountant, the waiter and the laundry lady.

The latter is easy to say, I went to the orphanage, Ding Nan found four aunts to be laundry girls, and found six children to work as waitresses for me.

Among the six children was the little brother I met for the first time.Four boys, a little girl, and a little brother.

In fact, I didn’t plan to use so many children. I thought four would be enough. Ding Nan said that according to the wages of the four children, it would be enough to divide the wages between the six children equally.

He told me the truth that these children are too old to stay in the orphanage all the time, and they have reached the age when they should come out to rehabilitate themselves. He wants them to work more and see the world, even if I don’t need them , They have work experience and it is easier to find a job.

Ding Nan said that he was being cautious at these times. He was not sure if I was willing to provide board and lodging for the two children. I didn't think it mattered. If it really helped these children get a foothold in this world, it would be a good thing, so I stayed.

Accountants and cooks can no longer be found here. I went to the labor market, posted job advertisements, and waited for people to come to apply for jobs.

I took these people back directly and divided the work among them.The inn needs to be fully cleaned every day. I usually sweep the dust whenever I see it. Six children are in the inn building, responsible for serving guests, helping the kitchen and other tasks. I gave them uniform clothes. I made it out of time. I was wearing a brown bunt, with a dark green apron on the front and a small hat on the head. The girls were wearing brown skirts. The children were all in good spirits and looked very good-looking. .

The four aunts also wore brown work clothes, and their aprons were beige, which was slightly different from the second one.

The six children eat and live here, because guests are also needed for service at night. The four aunts go to work every morning and go back in the evening. It's not that I don't want to keep them, but the backyard is too small and there is no place to live.

A few aunts are still stable, and a few children are very excited. They can work and earn money, which is something they are particularly proud of.

The oldest of these children is only 14 years old, and the youngest is only 12 years old. In this world, they are already old enough to work as adults. My heart aches.

But they don't know how to do it now, I have to train them myself.

I showed them to Mr. Feng and told them to listen to Mr. Feng in the future. This is the shopkeeper of our inn.

While talking, the plaque of the inn was delivered. Our inn is called "Hongyun Inn". What a simple name, no matter for the students who come to take the exam or the businessmen, they all want to be lucky!

There is no rush to hang up the plaque, as soon as it is hung, it will open for business, and we still have some things to do.

I went to Pei Shen and told him about Enke, he became nervous all of a sudden, and I asked him if he could make more of Pei Linger's candy, I wanted to put some in the inn, Pei Shen said that if you want more, you can It's not easy to do. His sister is blind and works very slowly. The candy that can be boiled every day is limited. Now in addition to half a cup of Liuguang, there are some made-to-order candies that have eaten his family's candy in half a cup of Liuguang before. Although not every day, But an occasional order is enough to keep Pei Ling'er busy.

We had to let this matter go.

I went to Boss Su again and talked with him about the small snacks, and finally agreed that they would send some small snacks every day, based on the wholesale price, and give them for a month to see the demand.

Then I went to Boss Zou and ordered some green plants. He said that there are some plants in the greenhouse that are ready to use, but it is recommended to wait another month, because it is still a bit cold at the moment.

That's not a problem. The expo is still open for more than a month, and that's when the flow of people is at its peak.

He sold me some dwarf landscaping pines, the only ones growing this season.

That's fine too, a literati likes pines too, and I had his guys put dwarf pines on every floor, and a little bouquet of plum buds in every room.

In this way, the whole inn is full of vitality.

There is a special firewood seller in the city. I bought firewood for home use from a big man before. He appeared in the city again these days. I asked him if he could supply firewood to the inn. The 24-hour supply of hot water requires a lot of firewood, which is not a small business for him. He also delivered firewood to two hotels. The workload is quite heavy, but he still agreed.

Huh, there are really too many trivial things that need to be done. Fortunately, there is a well not far from the backyard, otherwise I would have to hire a waterman.

Then I went to contact the swill worker, the manure puller... not much to say.

After running around for a long time, we were exhausted, and the inn hadn’t recruited a cook, so we lit the fire by ourselves, and the four laundry ladies cooked the meals, which were plain home-cooked meals, but also thought-provoking.

In the afternoon, the four aunts have to wash and dry a lot of cloth towels, bed sheets, quilt covers and pillow covers, etc. In fact, these are all new, but I am used to washing them first before using them. This is true for myself and for guests. Sanitation in public places must not be sloppy.

The new desk calendar was placed on the counter, and the accountant of the Bianbu Bookstore gave me two thick blank ledgers, saying that he was used to them and it was the best for keeping accounts. very good.

He recommended a bookkeeper to me. He was a good friend of his. He said that he escaped from the famine during the war and now lives in his house. He also worked in a hotel before. He is good at bookkeeping.

He said to me embarrassingly: "You asked me those brain teasers before, and he answered several of them."

I:"……"

Hahaha, okay, but my requirements for the accountant are to be careful and good-natured, not to be too smart, and I don’t need to make fake accounts. Qu Accountant said that his character guarantee is absolutely no problem.

I said that's fine, let him come when the business opens, the three-month trial period, I will naturally see if it is good or not.

Qu Accountant fully agreed, and chatted with me a few more words, saying that Cui Ji is also thinking of new products now, but only a few new gift boxes, new fancy stationery, not too fancy, so the business is not very good , the best seller now is the desk calendar.

He said that Boss Cui wanted me to give an idea, but he was too embarrassed to come.

I didn't answer the call, I'm not working at Bibu Bookstore now, there's no reason to give advice for free, not to mention that Cui Changyu hit me on the first day of the new year, and he hasn't apologized to me until now, I still care about it, no matter how good it is Friendship can't withstand such consumption, it's the first day of the new year, everyone is trying to get a lottery, he is good, beat me up, add trouble, Chen Xiang and the others are very unhappy, saying it is unlucky.

Seeing that I didn't speak, the accountant Qu didn't say anything. He shook his head and said that he didn't know what the store would be like this year.

This is none of my business, but no matter what, it will not be worse than before. After all, the printed paper gift box and the modified reading area have already made Bianbu Bookstore a lot of profits.It’s just that what they can do, others will do it sooner or later. If there is no innovation, they can only change from a leader to an ordinary person.

When we went home at night, we discussed about the half-light streamer. The half-light streamer's clothes and bags have always been trend-setting. Some businesses are imitating us, but they can't surpass it haha!

So you can imagine how many orders will be received at the expo, Chen Xiang and the others are only a few people, how to deal with this.

Chen Xiang said that small parts can be outsourced, but cutting, embroidery and sewing cannot be handed over to others. This is the core. Without these, half a streamer is not a half streamer.

I think it makes sense, is it going to be expanded again?

This small shop can no longer accommodate more people, should we make a workshop?

A workshop cannot be supported by just a few people, it requires more energy and financial resources, and the management is quite complicated. We have some spare money on hand, but it is not enough to support a workshop, and once the people in the workshop After recruiting a lot, we have to be responsible for the wages of so many people, which puts a lot of pressure on our income.

Chen Xiang said that now we can only stock up for the time being. Sometimes the size of ready-made clothes does not need to be so accurate. I know that, the original world is divided into sizes, and everyone has the same body shape. This is easy to say, but the difficulty is efficiency. and volume issues.

After much deliberation, we decided to set a limited quantity. Rare things are more expensive. We took the high-end and rare route. Although we planned to take this route from the beginning, we couldn’t keep up with the time when we needed money. In fact, there is no limit to the implementation.

We can take advantage of this time to promote the brand, and then open a workshop to produce some regular models, and continue to make limited high-end models here, so that we can get involved in both levels of the market.

Get busy!nervous!Excited!
