Chapter 125: Causing trouble
"It depends on the people we pick, I plan to ask Shopkeeper Shen to help buy a few people when the time comes, as long as the people pick the right ones, there should be no problem. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xu Xiangwan replied.
She had wanted to grow potatoes before, but if they moved to Fucheng, I was afraid that this plan would have to be put on hold for the time being.
Of course, if you have money at that time, you can also buy some land on the outskirts of Fucheng, or buy a house with a larger yard, and you can also try to plant some.
Speaking of buying people, Zhang didn't show any objections, but Gorou frowned and said: "We are ordinary dealers, I'm afraid it's not suitable for this buyer, right?"
Xu Xiangwan smiled: "This matter of buying people, in fact, I wanted to talk about it before." It's just that because the money is not abundant enough, and some things have happened, so it was delayed. Although we are a farmer, we have enough ability to support them. Although they are subordinates, as long as we abide by the duties of the Zhuang family and treat them well. And in the future, if you and Xiao Jiu have fame, there will definitely be someone in the family. Even if you don't have fame, our family's life will get better and better, and the family business will get bigger and bigger, and buying someone is also an inevitable choice. ”
Zhang nodded, agreeing with Xu Xiangwan's words: "What Wan'er said is good. It's just that our family only has two hundred taels of silver now, and we are buying land, buying people, and we have to buy a house in Fucheng, I'm afraid it's not enough, right?"
"So, we have to make preparations and wait until the end of the month to see how the hand balm sells. I'm going to hurry up and send this month's thirty boxes of hand balm to Rendetang, and if I can sell them, these things will be fine. Xu Xiangwan picked up a glass bottle on the table and said with a smile.
After listening to Xu Xiangwan's words, Gorou's frowning brows also relaxed: "It's my thinking that is too narrow." ”
This is Goro, although he is the eldest in the family and a scholar, but he is never rigid and arrogant, as long as it is a reasonable opinion, he is willing to listen.
After a few people discussed, they took advantage of lunch time to give Xu Qiuyi and Xiao Jiu a rough mention, and neither of them had any objections.
Gorou's luggage is almost ready, taking advantage of the fact that there is nothing to do at home, Gorou went to the field in the afternoon to pick a few acres of pea tips, ready to pick another half a day tomorrow morning, and send it to Chunfeng Restaurant tomorrow afternoon.
The medicinal materials in Xu Xiangwan's hands can only make ten more boxes of hand ointment, because the hand ointment is expensive, and it is all for nobles, Xu Xiangwan is even more careful than before, and the quality and quantity are absolutely guaranteed.
Since the money from selling hand balm is fifty-fifty, Rendetang is responsible for providing raw materials and glass bottles, while Xu Xiangwan is only responsible for refining.
Of course, some of the key materials were prepared by Xu Xiangwan himself, and he did not ask Rendetang for them. After all, this is also a secret recipe, although she is willing to give it to Shen Qianyu, she has no intention of giving up the house to Rendetang.
In the afternoon of the next day, after Wulang and Xu Xiangwan went to Chunfeng Restaurant to sell a cart of pea tips, they rented a carriage in Guojia Town for 20 yuan to go to Ganquan County.
The weather is getting warmer, everything is recovering, and everything is full of life.
Today's pea tips can no longer be sold at the high price of the previous year, but a car of more than 400 catties of pea tips still sells for more than six taels of silver, plus the previous more than 190 taels, Xu Xiangwan already has more than 200 taels of silver on hand.
Xu Xiangwan came to Ganquan County to get glass bottles and medicinal materials for making hand ointment, and secondly, to find Shen's shopkeeper to help find a candidate for Wulang's companion.
Tomorrow Gorou will rush to Yizhou Mansion, and the day after tomorrow will be the opening ceremony of Tingtao Academy.
As soon as he entered the gate of Ganquan County, Xu Xiangwan saw an extremely familiar figure from the corner of the curtain that was blown by the wind.
"Master?!" Xu Xiangwan hurriedly lifted the curtain, poked his head out, and shouted towards the back.
The man turned his head when he heard the sound, and when he saw Xu Xiangwan, he immediately grinned, but his already wrinkled face was covered with bruises, and his smile was really not very elegant.
Who is this old man with unkempt hair, blue nose and swollen face, and who is not the old man who has been limping when he walks for many days?
"It's good to see you, good boy. Your master and I are about to be beaten to death, those eight lambs, I didn't expect to be so ruthless, and I almost killed the old man. Oops...... Hurry up and get me into the carriage, the gang will be chasing after me. The old man of Sanjin beckoned to Xu Xiangwan again and again, for fear that Xu Xiangwan would not see him.
Hearing Xu Xiangwan's greeting, Gorou also opened the curtain and looked, and sure enough, when he saw the embarrassed old man of Sanjin, he immediately frowned, and said in confusion: "Master Sanjin, what's wrong with his old man? Why are you so embarrassed?"
Xu Xiangwan asked the coachman to stop the carriage before saying to Gorou: "Look at this, I'm afraid I'm provoking someone who is not easy to mess with." ”
As he spoke, he looked at Goro's face.
Although Gorou's face was not very good-looking, he didn't say anything, and he didn't show that he was afraid of getting into trouble, which made Xu Xiangwan very useful.
Her eldest brother is a good boy with responsibility and responsibility, and she doesn't know which girl will go cheaper in the future. Xu Xiangwan sighed secretly, deeply feeling that the "sister-in-law" who didn't know where she was still had made a profit.
"Ouch, ouch, girl, come and pull your master, my old bones are about to fall apart. Those bunnies are really ruthless. The old man soon limped to the carriage and craned his neck to look into the carriage.
Gorou was the first to get up, lifted the curtain and reached out to help the old man into the carriage.
"Master, you also know that you are an old bone, and you still learn from young people to fight, isn't it fun?" Xu Xiangwan glanced at the old man Sanjin, although his tone was not good, but in the end he still stood up and carefully helped him to sit down.
"Hey, you girl, I'm not ...... Ouch......" Before the old man Sanjin finished speaking, the carriage that had just started suddenly stopped again, and the three people who had not yet sat down suddenly leaned forward in unison, and their heads almost hit the roof of the car.
"It's over, it's over, it's chasing ......" The old man Sanjin lifted the corner of the curtain, peeked at it, and suddenly turned white with fright.
The old man of Sanjin is a good gambler, and it seems that he owes other people's gambling debts. Xu Xiangwan knew it, but he had to pretend to be stupid, after all, the old man of the three golds in this life hadn't said this stubble in front of them.
"The people in the carriage hurry up and get out of the carriage! Otherwise, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite!" Several men with sticks in their hands stopped in front of the carriage, and a rugged man in front of him was holding an iron rod the thickness of a thumb in his right hand, and he slapped it on the palm of his left hand with a "snap" sound, tilting his head and shouting at the carriage.
