Chapter 64 Xichun’s new business
Carrying two large baskets of peaches, Xichun and his party returned to the city. She couldn't wait to try the effect, so she immediately asked everyone to help make it after returning.

"Sister Xichun, this is a waste of sugar, can you sell it?" Taozi looked at Xichun's steps curiously and made a confused sound.

"It's okay. Let's make it first and see." White sugar at this time is not cheap, so the rock sugar used in Xichun is relatively cheaper. Wash the peaches and soak them in water, then peel them and soak them in salt water. After a while, after boiling the peach and rock sugar together, it became half.

If you want canned peaches to last longer, the most important step is to store the canned peaches in jars. The jars need to be cleaned and disinfected. There are no better methods for high-temperature sterilization in ancient times. Xichun bought a lot of small jars and burned them. Use a pot of boiling water to steam the whole jar, then dry it naturally, pour the pulp and water in and seal it.

At this step, you are waiting for inspection. This step is mainly to check the shelf life of the can. If you want to have commercial value, this step is essential.

Aunt Zhang and others thought it was a bit wasteful for Xichun to do this, but those were the candies bought with Xichun's money, and she was also very smart, so she must have her own reasons.

The remaining pulp was not wasted because of the spring, but was distributed to everyone so that they could try it too. Who doesn’t love sweet things, so they naturally ate it happily.

Xichun also gave some to the An family and Guo family, and left one jar for Fu Changfeng.

"This is the canned fruit I made myself. When you take it back, remember to eat it in time. If it goes bad, don't eat it again. Remember to use a dry and oil-free spoon every time you scoop it out, so that it can be preserved to the maximum extent. "

"Miss Chen, don't worry, I will keep it well." Fu Changfeng grinned.

Aunt Zhang's new daughter-in-law is named Zhou Xiaoxue. She is a quick-working, cheerful and generous woman. Since her husband-in-law and mother-in-law are both in the county, it would not be nice for her to be at home with her father-in-law, so Xichun also asked her to come and help.

"Sister-in-law, take a break and eat first before going to work." After noon, there were fewer people eating. Xichun asked everyone to eat first before working, but she saw that the bowls had not been washed yet. , I had been studying all morning and didn’t do much work, so I took the initiative to run over and wash the dishes.

"It's okay, there aren't many bowls here. I'll wash them in a while. You guys eat first, I'm not hungry yet." Zhou Xiaoxue said as she started to wash the bowls in a short while.

"You have a good wife here. Look at her hard work. She will be blessed in the future." Aunt He and the others were joking with Aunt Zhang.

"No, this wife is a good daughter-in-law, and I'm happy in my heart." Aunt Zhang thought of the news she heard a few days ago. Sanniang of the Jiang family had hired a son-in-law. She heard that they were about to get married. She thought of the anger she had received at the beginning, and then looked at I feel lucky to have such a diligent daughter-in-law.

"When you work with Xichun from now on, you can always learn a trick or a half. From now on, if you go out to do business on your own, you will definitely make money. Look, the old Chen family seems to have forgotten where they came from. They are here, but they don’t even come when the people in the village are having wine, so the business is not as good as ours, and the tail is raised to the sky.”

"Who knows what they think, let's just live our lives well." Xichun didn't understand their family's thinking, and most likely they would never return to the village again.

Xichun didn't have so much energy to interfere with other people's affairs. After making canned fruits, Xichun also developed chili oil, chopped chili and other edible foods, preparing to sell semi-finished products directly.On this day, Qiangzi came over in despair. Seeing him like that, Aunt Zhang and Zhou Xiaoxue both ran over.

"Mom, there are too many people in Zhuji Restaurant now. They said they wanted to reduce the number of people, so I and the other two were called back." Qiangzi was still enjoying the joy of his wedding, but he didn't know that this happened, and his mood was also different. What a mess.

"Hey, there's nothing we can do about it. There are still many relatives waiting to work. Come back as soon as you come back. Think for yourself whether you are going to go back to the village and farm with your father, or find something else to do in the city. ." Aunt Zhang and the others had been mentally prepared before.

Because the son-in-law Jiang Sanniang was looking for was from Shopkeeper Zhu’s hometown, the two businesses were already close to each other. After going back and forth, even Xichun and the others heard the news that Boss Zhu wanted to replace him with someone from the same village. This was a characteristic of this era. , Xichun has no way to force shopkeeper Zhu to continue arranging things for Brother Qiangzi.

"Brother Qiangzi, what are your plans? If you want to stay in the city, my stall is still short of people. If you want to do other business, you can try it yourself." Xichun had already thought about it before. Brother Qiangzi no longer works in that restaurant. He lacks talents. Someone like Qiangzi who has worked as a waiter in a restaurant is also a talent.

"Xichun, you have enough manpower. Xiaoxue is a burden to you. If I come again, you won't be able to make much money. I'm going to see what kind of business I can do." Of course Qiangzi also He wanted to stay here, but he knew that it would not be good if his whole family worked in Xichun.

"Brother Qiangzi, I happen to be planning to open another stall, and I'm also thinking about continuing to recruit people. Aren't you a ready-made talent? Don't worry, the business I want to do does not conflict with the current one, but I am short of manpower. keep it."

The business Xichun is talking about is naturally the business of selling chili products. She has inquired about the situation in the entire county and even the prefecture. People also like to eat chili. The business at this stall can only cater to the people in the county, but other businesses can indeed Targeting more places, it might be even more profitable than this.

As for the canned fruit matter, Xichun felt that if she did it alone, she would be a target, so she wanted the villagers to do this business. As long as there was fair competition, there was no chance that Taoyuan Village would be able to develop the tourism business in the future.

"Xichun, are you telling the truth? As long as you need it, I will definitely be grateful." After hearing this, Qiangzi also knew that she was not a boastful person. He had heard from the lady before that Xichun was doing something recently. It seems that she has already made up her mind about the matter.

"Of course, I'm not coaxing you. Brother Qiangzi, sister-in-law, you two will be responsible for this business with me. As for the business in this stall, Aunt Zhang, you can take care of it for me for a while first. , you will be the manager of our stall, wait until I can take care of both sides."

"Xichun, I'm afraid I can't do this, right?" When Aunt Zhang heard this, she actually asked herself to be in charge, and for a moment she was a little worried and afraid that if she messed up, it would ruin the reputation of the stall.

"Aunt Zhang, don't panic, just do what we usually do. Each of you has a division of labor and knows what you should do. I will come here every day. Don't be too stressed." Xichun felt that if he did it in the future If there is more business, it must be let go in time so that they can adapt to their positions and take up the responsibility as soon as possible.

In addition to Aunt Zhang, everyone else also needs to be trained. Xichun is also planning to recruit two more people from the village to help, so that there is no need to worry too much about things at the stall.
