Chapter 196: Earn a thousand taels in one day
These people expressed their requests one by one, but none of them had as much quantity as the first person asked for. Obviously they didn't dare to ask for more. Even though the reputation of her soap has spread to several towns, they still can't. I don’t dare to take out all my belongings to purchase goods, so I will test the waters with a small batch first.

After Jiang Xiaoxiao remembered it, he blew the dried rice paper and said, "You want a lot of goods. It will take some time for my soap workshop to produce them all. How about you pick them up in three days?"

The amount of soap these people want is nearly 3,000 yuan, and her soap workshop can only produce a maximum of 500 yuan a day. Including the previous inventory, it will take at least three days to provide them with what they need. quantity.

"Of course it's okay." Several people nodded.

In their opinion, the Jiang family's willingness to sell them soap was already very generous.

Although the cheapest unscented soap costs 300 cents, it is not up to them to decide how much they want to sell it to other places.

Who wouldn’t want soap that’s better than bath beans?

Even if the price is twice as high, there will still be people rushing to buy it.

"Ms. Jiang, here's the deposit." The businessman from Qingping County took out a silver check worth one hundred taels.

When Jiang Xiaoxiao saw this, she couldn't help but glance at him.

She knew what her mother meant.

Her mother-in-law scattered some flower seeds on the courtyard wall a few days ago. It is already late autumn, and the flowers will not bloom until the next spring at the latest.

One thousand taels of silver!

She made so much money in one day. If her soap shop came to sell it, it would probably take more than half a month to sell it.

After sending a few people away, Jiang Xiaoxiao couldn't wait to estimate based on the rice paper. The total amount of goods ordered by these people was nearly one thousand taels of silver!

In addition to plant ash and lard, the most needed raw materials for soap workshops are goat milk and flower petals.

The goat milk is provided by her dairy goats, so there is no need to worry about it, but the flower petals are not good. The flowering season only lasts a few months. When winter comes, the flowers fade and there is no place to collect them. You have to take advantage of these few days to get more. Stock up on some flower petals.

"Okay!" Jiang Xiaoxiao responded and hurriedly ran to the backyard.

"Okay." Jiang Weiqing tapped her head lightly with his finger, "Don't get excited, go and see how the goat milk and flower petals prepared in the backyard are doing. I'll go to the soap workshop to check the inventory."

Although not as much as Mr. Bai gave, it still gave this wholesale business a somewhat contractual spirit.

The man nodded repeatedly: "Thank you, Miss Jiang, for reminding me."

Seeing this, the other people also took out their deposits.

She couldn't help but feel excited in her heart.

Jiang Wei went to the soap workshop, and Jiang Xiaoxiao was busy working in his backyard.

It seems that this person values ​​this business very much.

The one thousand soaps he asked for were only worth a little over three hundred and eighty taels in total, but he paid nearly one-third of the deposit.

This man's surname was Bai, and he didn't seem to be a native of Qingping County. He had previously done a bath bean business in the county. In the end, the business suffered losses and he had to come to Qingping County to find another job.

Jiang Wei took the banknote with a smile on his face: "One thousand copies is a lot of goods. Please be sure to drive a carriage to transport the goods in three days."

Ah, how to spend so much money...

The businessman who came to discuss wholesale business this time undoubtedly gave the mother and daughter more motivation.

……

at the same time. Li family.

In the dilapidated courtyard, the entire Li family sat around the table, looking at the table full of mushy grains and unable to eat.

Yunying was sitting next to Li Shoude, with a look of food on her face. It was a dark paste mixed with boiled and rotten wild vegetables. There was no salt or oil, so she couldn't eat it at all.

"Mom, our food has just been harvested not long ago, why are we reduced to drinking this mush every day?" Mrs. Zhu complained with her lips curled up.

She stirred it up twice with chopsticks. The paste was as thin as water and not as good as the food before.

When Mrs. Li heard this, she was so angry that she threw her chopsticks on the table: "Eat it if you like it, or get out if you don't!"

Zhu immediately didn't dare to say anything, she only dared to keep her head down and complain softly in her heart.

I thought the matter would just go away, but I didn't expect that Li Shoucai, who always ignored matters that had nothing to do with him, suddenly spoke.

"Mom, my daughter-in-law is right. The autumn harvest has not been over for a long time. No matter how bad the harvest is, they will still reward their family members with a few meals. My family has more than 30 acres of land, no matter how bad the harvest is. , I won’t even be able to afford a meal.”

Zhu suddenly raised her eyes and looked at her man with bright eyes.

This is the first time Li Shoucai speaks for himself!

But obviously, Li Shoucai didn't say this for her.

"Second brother..." Mr. Li started, "You know, your eldest brother is going to study in the state to gain honors for our family. The repair fee is not small. Our family has no choice but to sell it. food……"

Before he finished speaking, Li Shoucai interrupted coldly: "For our family? Dad, I'm not talking about you. In the past few years, how much money has our family spent on going out to get this honor? But in the end, we What benefits are gained?”

After saying that, he took a deep look at Yunying beside Li Shoude.

He worked hard at home farming, while Li Shoude used the family's money to live happily outside. He also had spare money to visit brothels and even redeem himself for prostitutes.

He, Li Shoucai, has never even been in a brothel in his life, why should he? !
Just because the eldest brother is the eldest son in the family, he enjoys all the best resources in the family, but Li Shoucai has to work hard to serve him all his life?

The more Li Shoucai thought about it, the deeper the resentment in his heart became, and his voice became colder and harder: "Dad, I am planting more than ten acres of land at home. Why should I sell the food I finally grew to raise money for my elder brother?" Studying? And I have been busy for a year and can’t even afford to eat? Why? Dad, you are too partial!”

"I can't live this life anymore. If you sacrifice me like this for my eldest brother, then I have to leave!" After saying that, he slammed his chopsticks, stood up and walked out.

Mr. Li looked at Li Shoucai who left angrily. He opened his mouth and wanted to stop him, but in the end he had no choice but to shut his mouth.

Why doesn't he know the grievances of the second child?
But his lifelong dream is to have a scholar in his family.

The eldest son finally became a scholar, so how could he not exhaust all the family's resources to support him?

The second child is indeed right, he is partial.

His heart has always been biased toward the boss.

Even in order to raise money for the eldest son to study at the town college, he did not hesitate to push the third son to do corvee service.

Just because of the corvee service, there was a compensation fee of five taels of silver.

Therefore, he did not regret at all after doing all this.

……

At this moment, Li Shoucai didn't know what Mr. Li was thinking, nor did he know that the other party didn't have any regrets in his heart.

He arrived at the village angrily. When he looked up, he saw several carriages driving out from the direction of Jiang's house.
