When eating, both Zhang and Liu Chengfang were very enthusiastic about Qiao Chaoyang and kept persuading him to eat.

There was a gag next to Brother Bao, and the meal was relaxed and lively.

When he finished eating, Qiao Chaoyang quietly said to Wang Jing: "What are my sister's plans for the mosquito killer stick?" How are you going to place the people who helped with the work in the first place? Isn't it filled with realgar and arsenic? In order to prevent leakage and trouble caused by someone changing the ingredients, the people who made the mosquito killer sticks at that time all bought them. Qiao Chaoyang explained.

At the mention of mosquito killer sticks, Wang Jing immediately thought of mosquito coils, which were indispensable in summer in every household in her previous life.

"Cousin's quarantine area should still be idle, right? Why don't we partner in the production of mosquito coils? Wang Jing asked.

Qiao Chaoyang shook his head, "The law stipulates that officials can't do business. ”

Wang Jing said: "You don't have to be a cousin to do it, you just have to find a reliable person to watch?" ”

Qiao Chaoyang still shook his head, "The cost is too expensive, I'm afraid there is no profit." ”

"Artemisia leaves are everywhere, and even if realgar and arsenic are expensive, they are limited in use, is it because rosin is too expensive?"

"Yes, the amount of rosin is not large, but it is not small, but rosin now costs dozens of taels of silver a catty."

Wang Jing was stunned: "Rosin is really so expensive? Then let's work together to collect rosin. ”

The more she thought about it, the more she thought it was good.

"Cousin knows how to pick rosin?"

Wang Jing said: "I know a little, but the harvested tree can only be sawed off and used for another purpose." ”

Qiao Chaoyang said: "How much can a tree collect?" ”

"You can probably pick a few catties a year." Wang Jing said.

Qiao Chaoyang quickly calculated in his heart.

After the earthquake, all the houses have to be rebuilt, and of course a tree has to be sawed off, and it is not impossible to cut down some pine trees, so if you can really collect rosin and sell it for money, then the victims will be able to survive the winter safely.

Not only Dingyuan can do this, but also the victims of Haozhou can do the same.

Since the plague was charged, the imperial court has not asked about the lives of the victims. Not only that, but even the impeachment of Hua Wanyan's son Hua Liang for forcing the prefect's granddaughter to death, the imperial court only transferred Hua Liang to another place, and did not pursue any responsibility, but complained: "Those Nan people are untouchables, and they are not worthy of the imperial court to send noble Mongols to be Daru Huachi!" ”

As soon as this incident came out, the imperial court only replaced Haozhou with a Han man named Su Zhenshan to be the Daru Huachi of Haozhou Mansion, and the others were treated as if nothing had happened.

But Daru Huachi only manages the officials and does not care about the people, which is not good, that is, it means to monitor these Han officials.

But how did so many people who had just experienced a major natural disaster survive the winter?

Some people still live in straw huts, and there is no food for the winter, but they are afraid that they will freeze to death and starve to death.

If there is a way to make money, it can be regarded as a solution to the urgent need.

"Why don't my sister wait a minute, I'll discuss this matter with my fourth uncle." Qiao Chaoyang said. This is also his cleverness, Dingyuan was originally under the jurisdiction of Haozhou Prefecture, and if he doesn't discuss it with the prefect now, he will definitely know it in the future. Even if Liu Chengfang is his own uncle, he won't like him to make his own decisions about everything. What's more, this method is just as useful as it is for Haozhou Mansion.

Even if a tree picks a pound of rosin, selling it can save a family from wintering.

Qiao Chaoyang told Liu Chengfang about this, and immediately received strong support.

But Wang Jing said, "I can tell the two adults how to pick rosin, but the adults must ensure that I will supply the rosin that I will make next year." ”

"When will this rosin be made?" Liu Chengfang asked.

It would be best if you started making it now and selling it next summer, but where is the mugwort now? Although mugwort germinates not late, it is best to pick it after the Dragon Boat Festival, and it will be dried immediately after the sun is too early.

"Next May."

By that time, the wheat was ripe, and the worst winter for the victims had passed.

"Okay, when the time comes, whatever rosin you want, just open your mouth." Liu Chengfang said, took a pen out, and motioned for Wang Jing to tell him the method.

Wang Jing smiled: "I just heard that I have to go to the test first to know if it works." ”

Liu Chengfang couldn't cry or laugh, if others had been blasted out by him, this person was his daughter, and she had heard the method of treating chickens, and she had helped him cure cockfighting more than once.

Thinking of this, he became pleasant again, "Then do you need Dad to send someone to help you?" ”

Qiao Chaoyang said: "The fourth uncle has a lot of things to do every day, and he can't be busy at all, if you leave this matter to me, I will arrange what Sister Jing needs." ”

Although the idea of picking rosin was Wang Jing's idea, the person who really proposed this idea to Liu Chengfang was Qiao Chaoyang, on the public he was the county of one party, on the private daughter is so old, there is an excellent young man like Qiao Chaoyang likes her, as a father, Liu Chengfang is very happy to see it.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you."

As soon as Qiao Chaoyang heard that Wang Jing would not start making mosquito coils until May next year, he said, "I'll find a place to settle those people first." ”

Wang Jing said: "It will be difficult for my cousin to settle them, if it is inconvenient, you can leave it to me." ”

"What are you going to let them do?" Qiao Chaoyang asked. It's easy to have an upright reason to be with someone you like, even if you have nothing to say, you have to find something to say, not to mention that he still has official business now.

"I opened a new snack bar, and I haven't got enough people yet, so they came just in time to help."

After she said this, Qiao Chaoyang thought of the "called chicken" he ate at Sanfeng Mountain last time, and couldn't help but be interested, "Where is my sister's shop open?" What is your name? ”

Wang Jing said: "It's over there in Taoyuan, and now it's already open, why don't you go in and have a look?" ”

Qiao Chaoyang couldn't ask for it, "My sister is quick-witted, and the snack bar she came up with is only afraid that it is also different, why don't we go and see it first and then discuss?" ”

Wang Jing brought him to a pintam.

It is said to be a snack bar, but it is the size of five rooms, and this is only the front hall for entertaining guests, not the backyard.

At this time, it was the peak season for meals, and many students from Luming Academy ate here, and some children lined up inside.

"I want a fried chicken thigh!"

"I want a bag of chips!"

"Two chicken wings!"

"A roast chicken!"

……

Wang Jing suddenly thought of McDonald's in her previous life from the flower chicken that day, the Liu family originally had a chicken farm, and selling it by itself saved a lot of intermediate costs. And the kids love it. It's a pity that there is no oven and you can't make bread, otherwise business would be even better.

Hongyun was collecting money as a shopkeeper there, and was very happy to see Wang Jing and Qiao Chaoyang coming.

"What do you want to eat?" She asked brightly.

Qiao Chaoyang said with a smile: "My sister opened a restaurant, but she brought me over after eating. ”

Wang Jing said: "Then let's have a little less?" A pack of fries, two chicken wings. ”

Before the things came, Hongyun came over with pen and ink, "The shop hasn't flattened yet, so it's better to ask Tanhualang to help us write one." ”

Qiao Chaoyang waved his pen and wrote the words "Yipinxiang".

"It is estimated that more than half of the guests will come to see my cousin's Mobao tomorrow." Wang Jing said with a smile.

Qiao Chaoyang said: "If you can serve your sister, my cousin is duty-bound." ”

When the food was served, he ate slowly, gently, but not annoyingly. On the contrary, watching beautiful men eat is also a pleasure.

Coming out of Yipinxiang, Qiao Chaoyang said: "How can I help my sister about picking rosin?" ”

Wang Jing said: "I just heard about it, as for how to get it, I have to find some pine trees and pick them myself." ”

Qiao Chaoyang said: "Then it is estimated that it will take a hard time for my sister to go to Dingyuan, and I can't leave the yamen for too long as a brother." ”

There will be no pie in the sky, and it will naturally be hard to make money.

What's more, picking rosin is not very hard.

"That's fine." Wang Jing said.

While speaking, he had already arrived at the door of the fourth room of the Liu family.

"Cousin, let's rest early, too." Wang Jing said goodbye to Qiao Chaoyang.

Qiao Chaoyang said: "I'll tell my aunt about inviting you to Dingyuan first." (To be continued.) )
