​Transmigrated into Ancient Times to Sell Desserts

In order not to delay the construction period, Ji Wei was already standing at the entrance of the North Street shop early in the morning of the next day, greeting a lot of interview workers who rushed over here.

Those workers are from all over the place, and they have heard that Ji Wei's wages here are lucrative. For the same length of time, they earn twice as much as other places.It's not good to be jealous, but I didn't recruit any more people.

This time when Zhao Hu spoke out, many eager people flocked to sign up.

Half of the thin and notorious men were screened out by Zhao Hu, and there are still sixteen or seventeen people who came to look for Ji Wei today.

Working all year round, it looks like a dragon and a tiger, black and strong, needless to say, it can endure hardship.

As soon as he arrived at the store, Ji Wei divided the people into six groups according to Cantonese-style cake skin, ice skin, and four kinds of fillings.

In groups of two to three people, work together.

These people have never touched moon cakes, even if Ji Wei separated the steps, it would be difficult for them.

Ji Wei had no choice but to shuttle back and forth between the six groups. He had to read every step before proceeding to the next step, so as to avoid wasting a lot of raw materials due to mistakes.

In addition to making eight different mooncakes, Nie Junqi also sent someone to deliver custom-made wrapping paper.

The printing workshop is only responsible for printing, not for assembly.

After being sent to Beijie, someone needs to fold the wrapping paper into a box shape, and then glue it together to pack the mooncakes.

Even if all the butter workers are sent to make moon cakes, there will only be insufficient manpower, and there will be no excess.

Two different kinds of mooncakes are in full swing in the backyard.In order to prevent someone from learning the craft secretly, Ji Wei broke up several groups and mixed them on both sides of the yard, separating them with a shelf in the middle, prohibiting the two groups of people from communicating.

Compared with the precise Cantonese-style mooncakes, ice skin mooncakes are much simpler.

It only needs a large amount of glutinous rice flour and sucrose, mixed well, steamed in a pan, and then placed in a well to refrigerate. The next day, workers wrapped the fillings and pressed them into mooncakes with mooncake molds.

As the workers became more proficient, from the second day onwards, snowy mooncakes were produced at a rate of three to four hundred per day.Then the Zhang family sent people to take away the snowy mooncakes one by one.

Although Zhangjia Cake Shop has opened branches in several nearby towns.It's just that the business is the best, and the one with the largest supply is Daxi Town.

The scene of Mrs. Lu's birthday banquet made many people's hearts itchy, and they couldn't wait to find her.But because Ji Wei hadn't delivered the goods to his door, he could only return empty-handed.

As for other nearby towns, except for students, most ordinary people don't know what mooncakes are.

Therefore, Ji Wei's shipping pressure is not too great.

What really made him anxious was the order of Cantonese-style moon cakes.

Snow skin mooncakes are simple and can be operated by workers themselves.However, the operation of Cantonese-style moon cakes is relatively complicated and delicate, and he must do it himself.

In front of the house, four purposely built bread kilns are fired at the same time, and they can only bake 40 yuan mooncakes at a time.

He repeatedly baked the oven seven or eight times a day, and had to run back and forth between six groups to control the quality. Ji Wei was so busy that he lost his head and fell asleep after taking a shower every night.

After working in the dark for three days, I finally managed to drive out all the orders.

After the Cantonese-style mooncakes are made, the cake skin group is completely liberated.

Before I could take a few breaths of relief, I was called to pack the mooncakes again.It took more than one hundred boxes of mooncake orders, even if they were packed, it took an hour or two before they were all ready.

"If you're tired, you can settle the wages and leave." After Ji Wei finished speaking, several men who were screaming and feeling sore just now couldn't help but look at each other.

Even if you are really tired, no one dares to say anything at this time.

They all shook their heads and said they were not tired, waiting for Ji Wei's next sentence.

"If you're not tired, stay here for lunch, and help me deliver mooncakes in the afternoon." Ji Wei took orders, and they came from major cities and towns, let alone come to pick them up one by one.

Originally, this mooncake gift box was considered high-end.

In addition to the complicated workmanship and exquisite packaging, even the considerate service is also included.Otherwise, Ji Wei wouldn't dare to ask for half a tael of silver for a box.

When everyone came to order mooncakes before, he wrote down the address in order to have them delivered directly to their door.

The four men were a little excited when they heard this.

After working in the yard for a few days, I was finally able to go out to get some air.It's not so tiring to run around, and you still have money to take. This job couldn't be better, so there's no reason not to.

All agreed quickly, for fear that Ji Wei would go back on his word.

"But when you go out to deliver mooncakes, you don't get paid by the hour."

Inspired by the takeaway delivery in her previous life, Ji Wei sent an order of mooncakes and ten coins.

There are two or three people in a town, and they go to deliver them together. After one trip, there is no problem in running faster and earning a hundred yuan.

"Is there such a good thing?" One of the men showed doubts, and lowered his voice to whisper to the people around him.

Ji Wei naturally heard it, but he didn't care.

"Among you, those who can read stand up." Ji Wei took out the paper with the guest's identity information written on it, and spread it out for them to read.

Among the four people, only one stood out. When he was a child, his family sent him to a private school. After studying for three years, he found out that he didn't have this talent, so he let it go.

Among the men who work hard, being able to read and write is considered rare.

The other party was more restrained. Seeing that he was the only one standing up, his dark skin was showing a little red, he touched his head, and said naively: "Why do you ask this? I can understand some simple words."

"If you can read, then I will send you to Daxi Town." Ji Wei had already thought about getting someone to help deliver mooncakes, so he classified them by town and copied several.

He took a piece of Daxi Town from the middle and handed it to the other party, asking him to take a closer look.

"If there is anything you don't understand, bring it up, and then you will go with others."

Since Mrs. Lu's birthday banquet was held next to the county school in Daxi Town, half of the guests were from Daxi Town and the county school.

"As for the three of you, the two of you will stay in Changliu Town and take this list. If you don't understand anything, you can ask people on the road. It must be born and raised here, so it's not that difficult."

After the three of them divided the tasks, Ji Wei counted out the mooncake gift boxes they needed, and solemnly instructed: "Everyone has to get back how much mooncake boxes they take out."

"I've written everything down, and I'll make a bet before I leave, so as not to make any mistakes. You have to remember, if the mooncakes are damaged, or if the money is undercharged, you will have to pay for it."

The compensation is not much, just make up for the difference.

As soon as the four of them let go, they heard Ji Wei tell the price of the mooncakes.

"If something goes wrong with a box, it will cost five dollars. If you work with me for a day, you only earn half of the money, but you have to take good care of it. There must be no mistakes."

Sure enough, the four men gasped when they heard the price.

"Send out an order, and I'll give you ten cents. If you work hard, one cent a day is not a problem." Ji Wei walked between the four of them, patted them on the shoulder and comforted them, "Just be careful, don't be too scared. "

In addition to Changliu Town and Daxi Town, there are guests from three other towns nearby.However, there are not many people. Except for Daxi Town, where two people are needed to send them off, one or two people is enough for other places.

Let the two people from Changliu Town deliver mooncakes first, and the rest of the literate and one illiterate stand still and wait for orders.

"You rest here now, and leave after lunch. I'll borrow a car for you, and you can't walk there by foot." If you want to walk, wait until the town is getting dark, and then talk about delivering mooncakes, time It's all spent on the road.

Ji Wei took time to go home, and Zhao Hu helped to keep an eye on the people and things in the yard.

Having lunch on North Street was something he had decided on the spur of the moment. On the way back, he turned to his home and talked about it with Liu Yimian.

Liu Yimian was going to help, but Ji Wei didn't object, he just asked him to call Ah Qiu again, so that he could cook a meal and order tea on weekdays, so that he wouldn't have to run back and forth.

The two went to West Street, Liu Yimian went shopping, and Ji Wei went to Wenxuan.

Since getting in touch with Ji Wei, Wenxuan often takes orders to make money.

Although it is tiring, the income is more stable than writing and painting in a shop.In less than a month's time, I have already saved half a year's county school fees.It won't be long before he can return to the county school.

So seeing Ji Wei coming to the door, he couldn't hide his joy.

"I'm here today because I have something for you to do."

Wenxuan was excited when he heard it, and nodded excitedly, "Anything is fine, I will do it, I will do it all!"

Ji Wei smiled and asked him to listen before answering.

"It's not the same as you used to write and draw in the house. This time it's physical work. You have to run around in the sun."

"Selling cookies like before?" Wenxuan thought a little bit off, but not too far.

Before selling cookies, he was afraid that this shop would disappear after passing through this village, so he has always been attentive and willing to do his job.Find Ji Wei early and drive to Daxi Town.

He thought that no matter how tired he was, it would be like this, but he didn't know that this time he was doing door-to-door delivery.

It's not just tired, it's very tired.

Ji Wei was also worried that Wenxuan, a weak scholar, would not be able to persist, but he thought that he was short of money, and the mooncakes were delivered quickly, so he stopped by to ask.

"Think about it, going door-to-door is more tiring than going to the county to learn how to sell cookies."

"In order to go back to the county school to study, I'm not afraid no matter how much!" Wen Xuan clenched his fists, his eyes determined.

Ji Wei felt good about it, so he didn't say much, and explained to him the method of settlement of wages.

"It's just that I give away more and earn more. If I give away one or twenty a day, I will have one or two dollars?" Wen Xuan's eyes glowed, as if he had already received the money with excitement.

Ji Wei was amused by him and couldn't help but pat him on the head to wake him up.

"How big is Daxi Town? Can you give away ten or twenty in one day? You can't become a big fat man with one bite."

"It's a big deal, I'll ask my friends to help." Hearing what Ji Wei said, Wenxuan immediately thought of Ji Baoshan, who was from a poor family.

If he can be brought together, even if this day is extremely tiring, he can still earn enough expenses for a month or two, so he will not refuse.

"Oh? You still have friends who are willing to come?" Ji Wei did not expect this, "A scholar too?"

"Before in the academy, Baoshan always helped. He also said that if I have any work that can earn money, I should call him."

"Well, there are more people in Daxi Town, so you and your friends can deliver it together." As for the literate man at home, let him deliver it to Baisha Town.

Anyway, literacy is not afraid.

Baisha Town is next door to Daxi Town, so you can just drop by.

"Then you pack up and go to my place for lunch. After everyone has finished eating, you go there with Brother Tian." Brother Tian is a man who can read and write, and there are many workers. If this person is not literate, Ji Wei might be too busy to remember.

Wenxuan didn't refuse, and had nothing to clean up, so he followed Ji Wei to North Street.
