"Auntie, here are thirty coins, please take it!"
After calculating the final price, the maid counted thirty cents and handed it to the old lady.
"What...what do you mean?"
The old lady looked confused and didn't dare to answer.
"Mom, didn't you buy goose feathers? This is your reward!"
The maid explained with a smile.
"What? Goose feathers can be sold for thirty cents? Little girl, you didn't lie to me, did you?"
Even though the copper coins were placed in front of her, the old lady still had an expression of disbelief.
She thought she would be happy just to exchange for a few copper coins, but it was just something she wanted to throw away!
I never expected that it could be sold for thirty cents?
A goose is worth a hundred words!
Just a hair can be sold for 30 cents?
"Mom, as long as you keep the hair, you can take the money away. Is there anything you don't believe?"
The maid said with a smile.
"Then...did I really take it?"
The old lady immediately dropped the cloth bag in her hand, wiped her hands on her clothes, and went to receive the thirty cents very excitedly.
"This money is yours, of course you can take it!"
"That works!"
Confirming that this was true, the old lady happily took the copper coin, put it in her arms, and walked back happily.
But as soon as she turned around, she was stopped by the maid, "Hey... Madam, please wait a moment!"
"What's wrong, little girl? Did you pay too much? I'm just telling you, it's just some goose feathers that no one wants. How can it be sold for so much money?"
When she was suddenly stopped, the old lady had obvious disappointment on her face.
But he didn't take the money and run away. Instead, he turned back very sincerely and said, "It's not easy for a little girl. Tell me, how much do I have to give you?"
"How much did you give me? We want to return the bag to you!"
The maid smiled sweetly.
I just poured the collected goose feathers into the big bag in the shop. When I turned around, the old lady was about to leave. She naturally stopped her!
People's lives are not rich, and their clothes have to be mended and worn again and again. A cloth bag is also very important to them!
"Huh? Cloth bag? That's it, hahaha!"
After learning the truth, the old lady was relieved and laughed heartily.
I was so excited just now that I forgot about the bag!
"Thank you, little girl!"
After taking the bag, the old lady thanked her profusely and walked home happily.
"Little girl, take a look at this. How much is mine worth?"
"And mine, I have a lot of this too!"
Seeing the old lady going out with a pile of copper coins, the man who came to sell goose feathers hurriedly took a few steps, fearing that it would be too late and he wouldn't want to give up.
"Yeah! Your hair is a little bit bad, there are too many colors, but the quality is not bad, so I can consider it excellent to you!"
"Ouch! You're not very good at this, you don't have any fluff at all, you can only be considered second class!"
"This is good, but it's a little missing...!"
The maids screen carefully, impartially, and they will be ranked according to the priority they deserve. They will never exploit the people just to save money for the down jacket factory.
It’s not easy for people to have one more opportunity to make money!
"It's done! It's done! You can give it to me as long as you have some money to buy food!"
No matter which price was set, the people had no objections.
It's just something that needs to be thrown away. If you can exchange it for a few pennies, just a few pennies!
In the end, even the common man with the least hair and the worst quality took ten cents and left happily!
"Little girl, do you want some chicken feathers?"
Today is the first day of purchasing feathers. Not many people have come, but the problems are all kinds of strange.
There are quite a few people who ask about chicken feathers and dog feathers like this.
The most outrageous thing is that some people ask about pig hair!
Some of the guys were already impatient with the questions!
"I'm so sorry, we only accept duck and goose feathers as written in the newspaper for the time being!"
Even though her mouth was dry when she was asked questions all day long, the maid still answered patiently.
This is why Yu Ji chose her to do this job!
"Then why not collect them? Aren't chicken and duck feathers all hair?"
Normally, the people would leave after hearing that they would not accept the money.
But this old man was different. He still stood at the door and asked.
"I've already said I won't take it, why aren't you done yet?"
Another guy waved his hands impatiently, but was stopped by the maid.
Still very patiently explained, "Because the chickens have too little down, we won't accept them!"
"Oh, I see!"
After the old man asked, he hunched over and left slowly with his hands behind his back.
In the next few days, the news of down jacket factories collecting feathers at high prices became more and more widespread, and more and more people came to sell feathers!
At the same time, many people came to sell ducks and geese, and they all paid according to their weight.
The price given is no lower than the price on the market!
This can make other counties anxious!
Because there is only one acquisition point in the whole Daqin.
It’s not worth it to go to Xianyang to sell those few tens of coins, and it would be a pity not to sell!
As a result, there were smart people in the area who started buying goose feathers!
First, I went to Xianyang to do some research to see how much the quality could be sold for, and then I went back to the local area to collect it and make a profit from the price difference!
Even though they knew that they were being made money, the people in other counties were very happy!
At least someone is starting to collect them. At least there are people who want the plucked feathers.
You can kill geese at any time and sell them for money at any time!
In a few days, the down jacket factory collected a large number of feathers, and the female workers also started working!
Cleaning, wool selection, crushing, etc., a series of tasks are done in a stylish way!
Yu Ji also stays in the down jacket factory every day.
His Highness the Crown Prince trusted her and entrusted her with such a large factory, and she secretly made up her mind to do a good job!
But that's not what Ying Feiyu thought. He just saw that she was really bored and wanted to find something for her to do to pass the time!
It doesn’t matter whether you make money or not, or how much you make!
Immediately afterwards, the fabric for making down jackets also arrived!
Now Yu Ji is even busier, leading the female workers to work day and night.
From cutting to sewing, we personally teach the female workers and strive to be the best!
Ying Feiyu was not idle either. A suitable shop floor had been found and the furnace craftsmen had finished laying it.
The shopkeeper and waiters have all been recruited, and the only thing left is to train the chef, and then we can officially open the business!
Just like when he opened a barbecue restaurant, he personally trained the chefs to ensure the authentic taste!
He tried again and again and finally figured out the roast duck’s heat!
May 18th is a good day.
Roast duck restaurant and iron pot goose opened at the same time!
The flaming firecrackers are lifted up high by bamboo poles, waiting for the auspicious moment to start setting off!
Early in the morning, the roast duck had been hung in the stove. By this time, the fragrance had already spread across several streets, attracting countless people to come and watch!
"Roast duck restaurant? Can the duck be roasted? Can it be cooked?"
“I don’t know if it’s ripe or not, but it tastes really fragrant!”
"Is this really fragrant? It's so fragrant that my mouth is watering...!"
The largest number of people gathered in front of the roast duck restaurant, with their feet on the ground eagerly waiting for the opening so they could go in and have a taste.
