This Guanyin statue alone is worth the price of a big house. It seems that the door needs to be replaced with a bigger lock. After all, it is the most valuable thing in the yard.
Although Jiang Yu is not here, he is not less involved in the affairs of the Su family and has a full sense of presence.
"Dear guest, please take a seat. Since you are here to send a gift, let's stay and have a glass of wine before leaving."
Su's father politely invited Feng Ying to stay for dinner, but Feng Ying refused.
"The congratulatory gifts have been delivered. I still have things to deal with, so I won't bother you further."
Since he doesn't want to stay, the Su family won't do anything to persuade him to stay.
Su Wan walked him to the door, Feng Ying clasped his fists at her:
"Miss Su, please stay and send me here!"
Su Wan nodded. Thinking of Jiang Yu, her heart couldn't help but beat fast. She could always think of Jiang Yu's words on that ordinary afternoon:
"From now on, I will also be your supporter!"
He was so gentle and caring, and to this day, she can still remember his affectionate peach blossom eyes, which she can't get rid of.
"By the way, please ask your young master for me. See you later?"
She asked in a questioning tone that we would see you later, and it was all contained in these four words.
Hearing this, Feng Ying almost smiled like an aunt.
It seems that his young master is not in unrequited love. It turns out that Miss Su is also thinking about him. How happy he would be if he knew about it.
"Okay, Miss Su, I will definitely bring her."
He tried hard to suppress the corners of his mouth, unable to break his cold persona.
…
A major event in the Su family's recent past has been completed, and the next step is to get busy with business.
The seeds of the three acres of flower fields have been planted one after another, and the areas have been divided. There is a river next to it, which is very convenient for watering. Now we are hiring someone to build a bamboo shed, and we plan to plant roses and roses in the corner of the shed.
Su Wan will raise bees in the shed, use honey to make beauty cream, and use bee embryos to make beeswax.
Maximize the various uses of flowers.
Because we found peppers, we had to allocate an acre of land that was originally used for growing vegetables and use it specifically to grow peppers. There were two varieties, one red pepper and one green pepper.
Pepper seeds are easy to handle. After drying for a few days, they are then spread into moist soil and wait for germination to grow pepper seedlings. After reaching a certain height, the pepper seedlings can be uprooted and planted separately. .
Each pepper plant should be spaced a certain distance apart, watered and fertilized regularly, and the most suitable temperature for planting is around 18 to 20 degrees.
By the time the pepper seedlings grow, the weather will be almost at this temperature.
There are a lot of trivial matters at home, and the second and fourth brothers are not in a hurry to go out. Instead, they help Su Wan grow flowers, peppers, and later make soap.
By the time the matter of the flower fields and peppers was completely finished, it was already the end of March. At this time, the eldest brother had already entered the Gongyuan, and spring was in progress.
Jiang Yu's private residence was given a very elegant name, Furong Xiaozhu. It was named after two hibiscus trees planted in the backyard.
Su Jing called the old servant who took care of Furong House Uncle Yuan. At the end of March in Kyoto, the spring was cold and the ice and snow melted away only at the end of February. It was still wet and cold at this time.
The Gongyuan was humid, and it would take seven days as soon as he entered. Uncle Yuan thoughtfully prepared knee pads and fox fur for him to prevent him from catching cold while writing essays in the Gongyuan. He would also have to delay the exam, which would be more than worth the loss.
In his hometown, Su's father, Su's mother, Su Chen and Su Yi were at home. Now that his uncle and aunt were helping, Su Mu had to go back to Jishan Hall to work.
At the beginning of the new year, I had to build a house and hold a banquet at home, and later I helped Su Wan with this and that. It had been delayed for two months, and it was time to go back.
And Su Yun is also leaving to work as a cook in Yueman West Building in Xiangzhou Prefecture.
He needs to see the world, learn more and watch chefs cook, and then master it on his own. He needs to go there for at least half a year.
Su's mother prepared clothes, money, and new shoes for him, and asked her third brother Su Chen to drive him to Xiangzhou Mansion.
When leaving, Su Yun solemnly promised Su Wan:
"Su Wan, when I come back from my studies, I will definitely give you a surprise."
Su Wan waved his hand and said with a smile:
"Okay, I'm waiting for your surprise, just don't be frightened."
The second brother Su Mu left with him. A few days ago, Su Wan had made a batch of soap and was drying it. After drying, it would be packaged and sent to the county.
Ordinary white goat milk soap, the one that earns 12 cents a piece, made one hundred and fifty yuan, dyed goat milk soap, circular printed one, also made one hundred and fifty yuan, camellia scented goat milk soap made One hundred dollars.
This is a new product. If it is sold in a grocery store, it will cost twenty-five cents a piece, and she will earn twenty cents in interest.
This batch of camellia infused oil can be used to make 500 pieces of camellia soap.
The extracted camellia hydrosol was not much, it was all the essence, and I only saved three small bamboo buckets.
By the time the second brother returns from sending soapberries, these hydrosols should only be enough to make about 80 yuan worth of hair soap.
As soon as the lid of camellia hydrosol is opened, the strong floral fragrance wafts out. The hair soap made instead of spices is definitely more popular. After washing the hair, the fragrance of camellia is all over the head.
Now that we are making soap, there is a huge demand for almond oil. When the time comes, we will talk to the grain and oil shop and ask them to send almond oil in large quantities on a regular basis.
When she was making soap a few days ago, Su Wan was careful not to let her uncle and the others see the specific parts. When she hired people to do the work, they would only be allowed to touch the final packaging part.
The core part is a core secret, which is related to the goat milk soap formula. It cannot be leaked. I would rather do it myself.
The most important thing is that Su Wan has not had much contact with her uncle's family, so she is not yet at ease.
After this batch of soap is delivered, Su Wan will target Xiangzhou Prefecture. By then, she will make a batch of soaps of various styles. As before, she can just find an agent to sell them on her behalf.
Slowly, the reputation of goat milk soap became popular in Xiangzhou Prefecture, and gradually spread to all counties in Xiangzhou Prefecture, receiving orders.
When there are more orders, she will set up a workshop to produce in batches and deliver goods exactly according to the orders.
When her reputation is completely established, she will stop taking the agent route and develop into physical stores, producing and selling by herself, and occupying the market alone.
Finding an agent in the early stage is a way of promotion. You don't have to shout out yourself. If you want to make a name for yourself, it will be faster. It just means you make a few cents less per soap.
In half a year at most, she can open her own physical store.
In addition to taking care of the flower fields, Jiang Sheng and his wife will come to Su's house to help when they have nothing to do. When the market opens, slowly, more and more soap will be made, requiring a lot of manpower.
The flower field does not need to be guarded 24 hours a day, just watering and weeding regularly is enough.
When they have nothing to do, they can just come to the workshop to make packaging, and it is not worth three taels of silver a month.
Su Wan planned to ask someone to build another yard next to the Su family's yard as a workshop, specifically for making goat milk soap and drying the goat milk soap.
The raw materials for making goat milk soap are also stored here, so that they do not take up space in the Su family's yard.
