"Xiao Ming thanked Brother Jiang for his help." There were only two people in the study, Xiao Ming and Jiang Sihai. Xiao Ming solemnly saluted and thanked Jiang Sihai for helping, so that the matter of the Wan brothers could end successfully. If Jiang Sihai hadn't secretly Help, Xiao Ming alone is not enough to bring the Wan brothers to justice.
"Dr. Xiao, you're too polite. Trivial matters are not worth mentioning." Jiang Sihai said. Compared with saving his life, these were just trivial things he could do. Jiang Sihai thought that Xiao Ming only wanted to thank him for his help when he met him.
"To be honest, Xiao Ming has one more thing to ask Brother Jiang for help with," Xiao Ming said.
"What, your brother is Jiang Heng." Jiang Sihai was extremely shocked after hearing what Xiao Ming asked for. He did not expect that Jiang Heng would actually be Xiao Ming's brother, who was already dead.
"Exactly, Brother Jiang knows my brother." Xiao Ming was equally surprised.
"We met once, but I didn't expect that he would encounter an accident." Early last year, he happened to meet a strong man hunting in the city. This man was Jiang Heng. Seeing that he was good at skills, he wanted to recruit him. After getting acquainted with him, he realized that he People's knowledge is even more extraordinary. Jiang Sihai wanted to recruit him with a lot of money, but he refused. Jiang Sihai felt regretful and never thought that he would pass away after not seeing him for a year.
"When did his accident happen?" Jiang Sihai asked. Although he did not achieve what he wanted, he chatted with Jiang Heng, exchanged names, and became confidants.
"It was last winter." Xiao Ming said sadly, and told what happened before and after her eldest brother's death. She had always been worried about the unexpected death of her eldest brother and sister-in-law, thinking that there must be an ulterior secret in it. The two of them had no grievances. Qiu, his death was so strange.
In the past, she and Xiao Han were struggling to make a living, and were helpless in the face of the innocent deaths of their loved ones, with no way to seek help. Now that conditions are better, she wants to seek justice for her elder brother and sister-in-law, and find the real culprit to avenge the bloodshed.
No matter who it is, she will let them taste their blood.
"Well, don't worry, I'll ask someone to investigate and get to the bottom of this matter." Jiang Sihai nodded sadly.
"Thank you, Brother Jiang." Xiao Ming saluted and thanked, and told Jiang Sihai to check carefully and not to get into trouble.
"I understand." Jiang Sihai nodded. After walking for many years, he naturally knew the joints. Brother Jiang was peaceful by nature and was polite to others. He never stood up in trouble. He really didn't know that he would offend his enemies and die.
After Xiao Ming entrusted the affairs of her eldest brother and sister-in-law to Jiang Sihai, she felt as if a big stone had been put down in her heart. She felt a lot more relaxed. She could finally do something for the dead little Xiao Ming. After such a long time, she also knew that she had to do something for her. It may be difficult to find out the real cause of death of the eldest brother and sister-in-law.
After bidding farewell to the Qin family and Jiang Sihai, Xiao Ming and Jiang Xiangyuan returned to the village. After a month of busy work, the wine-making project was nearing completion. There were nearly ten thousand wine jars densely packed in the house.
Only half of the fruits were used to make wine. Xiao Ming used the remaining half of the fruits to make canned fruits. They were also packaged and sealed in wine jars. The canned fruits were best packed in glass jars, but Xiao Ming made Yi Feng run away all over Pingcheng. I couldn't find a place that produced glass jars, so I had no choice but to use wine jars instead.
Xiao Ming invited the Wang family, Wang family, Li family and others to help with the brewing and taught them the preparation method. The others either picked the fruits or washed and cut them. After more than a month of busy work, the wine was finally completed.
After the completion, Xiao Ming led her family members to work in the yard.
Xiao Ming stamped the Xiao family's trademark on each wine jar, with the word 'Xiao' written on a piece of diamond-shaped paper.
"Sister, why do every altar have stickers?" Xiao Han asked as he posted the words. He really didn't understand.
"Haha, do you see the word 'Xiao'? The watch is produced by our Xiao family." Xiao Ming chuckled. The word 'Xiao' was designed by her herself. It has an elegant and beautiful feel and is a unique trademark of this era.
"From now on, everything produced by our family will be marked with this trademark, so that this trademark will be famous throughout the Dayue Dynasty." Xiao Ming was full of pride. Just imagine how grand it would be for the Xiao family to have all the well-known brands in the future.
Nationally famous.
"Well, this is good." Mrs. Song laughed when she heard this. She looked excitedly at the wine jars stacked in the yard. Nearly 20,000 jars, how much money would they have to sell for.
At the same time, Yi’s mother also lamented that the money came too easily.
"Ah!" After hearing Xiao Ming's heroic words, Xiao Han and Xiao Yu both grimaced at the same time, because this character Xiao was written by their own hands. In order to write this character Xiao these past few days, their hands were sore and numb. .
"Auntie, I won't write anymore. My hands hurt." Xiao Yu suppressed his dissatisfaction. He was also helping with the stickers, but his young age was not helpful because the stickers were crooked and ugly.
"Haha." Seeing the aggrieved look on the little bun, Xiao Ming felt embarrassed. She had forgotten that printing technology was already available at this time, and she could actually find someone to make a rubbing.
"No need to write it down next time, just find someone to make a rubbing."
"Girl, let me see if I can inform the Su family and Mr. Kong in advance and ask them to send someone to take them away." Mother Yi suggested that there were too many wine jars placed in the yard, making passing by a problem, and she also Worried about getting wet in the rain.
At the same time, she was also worried about the sales problem. The last time Mother Li came over, she placed an additional order of 3,000 jars, adding to the previous total of 3,500 jars. However, the Kong family had even fewer, only ordering 500 jars. Two families The total amount is only 4,000 jars, but this year there are nearly 10,000 jars of fruit wine, and there are nearly 10,000 jars of new canned fruits, and only a drop in the bucket is sold.
What should I do if this doesn't sell?
Xiao Ming thought about it and decided that she really should notify Lin and Kong Lin to send someone to pull it. The fruit wine and canned fruit would be ready for consumption after one month of storage. They should pull it back and store it for a few days or transport it back to the capital to do marketing and advertising in advance. , can increase sales and create brand effect.
"Well, Mother Yi's arrangement is that they can also promote the canned fruit when they come. The price is temporarily set at ten taels of silver per jar."
"Yes, I understand."
"Also, if anyone else comes to buy, you should ask where they are selling. If they are in Yingsheng, there is no need. You can consider the south or further away." Xiao Ming said, Lin and Kong Lin are both in the capital. People, they occupy the northern market, there is no need for her to add a northern competitor, on the contrary, the southern market is blank.
"Yes." Mother Yi is a sensible person, and after thinking about it, she understood Xiao Ming's intention.
"When things at home are over, I'll trouble Brother Yi to go to the city and see if there are any suitable shops, houses, or good farms and paddy fields. No matter how much money you have, I can buy them all." Xiao Ming said boldly, and she was ready to buy them. These properties are to prepare for the future marriage of Xiao Han and Xiao Yu. This is also a way of investment. In ancient times, money was often deposited in banks, and there was no hope of donating projects. A piece of paper was left in your hand to buy more properties. Money begets money.
"Yes, girl."
Mrs. Song and Mrs. Yi were happy. Mrs. Song was happy that the Xiao family's life was getting better now, and Xiao Ming finally wanted to buy more properties and buy a dowry. But what Mama Yi thought about was that her son was entrusted with such an important task by Xiao Ming, and buying a family property was so important. Xiao Ming has to leave all important matters to him, which shows that the girl completely trusts their family.
"Girl, there are so many people coming and going in the house these days, should we add more people to look after them?" Yi's mother asked. After more than a month of fruit picking and brewing, there was too much noise. Now every household in the village knows that Xiao Ming and The fruit was turned into fruit wine, and the news spread from ten to ten. Now several nearby villages know about it, and they are all secretly guessing how much money the Xiao family's fruit wine can be sold for. Although these people are all rural people, not I knew how much the fruit wine cost, but I couldn't resist people's speculation.
Some people even used the opportunity to buy medicine and take a peek at her home. Money moved people's hearts, so she was worried that those people with evil intentions would have evil thoughts.
I have heard that there is a person who can commit a thief in a thousand days, but there is no one who can guard against a thief in a thousand days.
"Auntie, a few days ago Baolai asked me how much silver a jar of wine costs." Xiao Yu looked at Xiao Ming with wide eyes. Baolai was a little friend who played with him in the village.
"Well, I understand. This is indeed a big problem. Pay more attention to strangers." There are only two families in Qiaodong, namely them and the Xia family. If strangers come over, they can be recognized at a glance.
"Xiao Han, go and invite Little Brother Yi to stay at home for a few days, and ask him and Brother Yi to pay more attention at night." Xiao Ming said. She was not afraid of anyone coming to steal things. She really dared to come and just closed the door and let Maomao go.
"Everyone has been very busy this month. Let's take a good rest after putting up the trademark." In the past month, everyone has worked overtime to pick fruits and brew them into wine, non-stop. Xiao Ming herself is fine. She goes into the space to sleep naturally at night. When I woke up, I didn’t feel tired yet, but the others were suffering. My godmother and Yi’s mother had lost weight due to fatigue, and even more so was Yi Feng, a strong and strong laborer. He was the main laborer at home, and even lifting Thanks to him and Li'er, he became dark and thin. Now that he has turned black, the faint burn marks on his face are no longer visible.
Xiao Yu's little bun also kindly took out his aunt's snow-white mud and gave it to Uncle Yifeng, meaning that Uncle Yifeng could use it to wipe his face and make him as white as his aunt and the others.
However, the dark-faced Uncle Yifeng looked at the jar of love beauty cream, and his face became even darker.
The family is really short of manpower. Xiao Ming is hesitant to go to Mrs. An again to add a few more people. However, she doesn't want to break the balance of the family. Now they are getting along well with Mama Yi's family. If new members come in, they will definitely ruin the atmosphere.
Whether to buy people or not should be decided after discussion between Mother Yi and Mrs. Song. Nowadays, Mother Yi is taking care of all the affairs in the family. Mother Yi is an experienced old man. Having her help in selecting people can save Xiao Ming a lot of worry. .
She doesn't worry about selling the fruit wine and canned food at home. In this place in the capital, there is no shortage of people in the upper class who know how to enjoy life. As long as the taste can satisfy their taste buds, they will not be stingy with their money.
Judging from the sales of fruit wine in the last period, many people lined up to buy it, and the supply exceeded demand. The unique taste of fruit wine has conquered the rich people in the capital, and it appears on the dining tables of aristocratic families for the ladies to enjoy.
Therefore, the capacity of one place in the capital can sell all these wines.
