Chapter 92
In the blink of an eye, a year has passed, and a large hotel has been established in Shicheng, which is known to everyone, called "Baiwei Zhai".
Some people with a memory will remember that it seems that a while ago, on a bustling civilian snack street, there was also a shop called Baiwei Zhai, but the people who recall these things are only a few, even if they can come up with it, they also shake their heads self-deprecatingly, how is it possible, the two stores are obviously not on the same level, one is a family with a little savings, and they can go to a fresh shop, and the other is a luxury that only high-ranking people can afford.
And the boss of Baiwei Zhai is also high, unimaginable top storage zài, who doesn't know that Baiwei Zhai is making money every day, which is something that people can't even think about.
Xia Jingyu's life suddenly became leisurely, half a year ago, Baiwei Zhai by the power of the Wei family, has successfully become one of the five major restaurants in Shicheng, the status has stabilized, which has a lot to do with the development of the Wei family, the Wei family's foundation in Shicheng is a little firmer, and the government has also made friends with a few people who can speak, these officials also often come to Baiwei Zhai, naturally according to the usual practice - the official family comes, there are many discounts, but Xia Jingyu is not very in these, Even if it is given to them for free, it will not lose money, after all, it is some food, how much can the raw materials cost.
In addition, the delicacy of Baiwei Zhai is famous throughout the stone city, especially its unique sea fish made zuò, which is the object of competition among the rich, which directly affects the business of several other restaurants, those who have a long-term cooperative relationship with other restaurants, it is inconvenient for them to show up, and they also want to send small servants to bring some back from Baiwei Zhai, everything has the first time and the second time, and later developed into a lot of rich families choose to buy food from Baiwei Zhai.
Of course, this time it can't be like the original Baiwei Zhai, takeaway discounts, these are all fat sheep. How can there be a reason not to let go of a painful slaughter, Xia Jingyu took the truth of goose plucking to the extreme, and she asked someone to make a batch of simple and exquisite utensils according to modern technology. When someone comes, they will sell it along with the utensils and food, and of course the price will be a little more expensive than staying here to eat.
Some people also inquired about the origin of the fish in Baiwei Zhai, and planned to run such a line themselves, but they did not know how to preserve the fish. Most of the sea fish that were brought back were dead, and the ones that were not dead were also belly upside down, and they looked weak, and they didn't know the trick of cooking sea fish, and the sea fish that were burned out were full of fishy smell, not to mention taking them out and selling them, and the cook who made the dishes tasted the first bite himself, and spit it out.
The bell who told Xia Jingyu this joke made an exaggerated vomiting action while talking. With snickerers piled up all over his face, laughing at the shortcomings of those people, Xia Jingyu lay on a chair made of bamboo and rattan, leaning forward and backward with laughter, almost falling off the chair, and the books in his hands also fell to the ground.
After a year of hard study, she already knows almost the words of Da Zhou, and now there is no problem with reading or anything, the types of books she reads are very miscellaneous, and she reads almost everything. But there is only one, the author is famous as Xia Mushi, and she resolutely doesn't even look at it.
Her wish has also come true a lot, the way the Wei family cooperates with her. It was she who proposed to buy shares, that is, to calculate one-fifth of the Wei family's annual income, and in these five years, the Wei family's people and accounts were used in the core area, but after five years, Xia Jingyu's people would take over. However, the annual dividend remains the same. Wei Zeyuan agreed, he didn't mind this not-so-fair mention in the slightest—after all, all the funds used in the early stage of this restaurant were his funds.
Four-fifths of Baiweizhai's annual income is already a large amount, she used this money to build a school first, invited a few teaching gentlemen, gathered the children of those homeless people at the beginning, and taught them to read and write, the children are better in the middle of the table, and they can also have the opportunity to work in Baiweizhai, and the rest of the people who are older and have no interest in reading and reading are really not interested, Xia Jingyu will find someone to teach them technical work, so that they can support their families by physical and technical skills. There are also a few people with physical disabilities, Xia Jingyu taught a few simple recipes, and they can also set up a small stall to sell snacks to get by.
As for those women, Xia Jingyu wanted to teach them embroidery, so that they could show some tricks every day to subsidize the family, but the learning time of embroidery technology was too long, if there was no foundation, I am afraid that it was not a year or two years to be able to practice to sell Cheng dù, and secondly, the general embroidery of the fabric thread is more precious, in case it is ruined one, it may be the wages of several pieces, so I have to give up. She purchased another weaving tool, so that those people can learn to weave, which saves a lot of trouble and learns quickly, those women are suffering, there is no doubt about the length and pressure of work, and they know to do it all day long, Xia Jingyu simply relied on them to open a textile factory.
Xia Jingyu also found a craftsman, according to the industrial revolution of the "Jenny machine" invented, so as to increase the speed of weaving six times, although the cloth woven by such textile technology is not as good as the fine weaving, but the speed is fast, can greatly reduce the cost, ordinary people do not care about the quality of the cloth, can buy cheap cloth, it is very good.
After Wei Zeyuan knew, he asked other places in the Wei family money store to bring a cart of high-quality silk every time they came, and let them bring the weaved cloth back to sell, so that it was completely based on the novelty patterns provided by Xia Jingyu every time, and the cloth they woven was very popular in the metropolis, at this time Wei Zeyuan did not stay in Shicheng for a long time, and originally transferred to Shicheng, just because of his idea of "selling medicine", but now it has become a sad place for him. Moreover, the stone city is small and inaccessible, and I don't know where he went to open up his financial route.
Because the Wei family provided silk and helped sell goods, this textile factory was also a part of the Wei family's shares, and Qingfeng still stayed in Shicheng to help take care of Shicheng's industry.
Duan Jinxiu and the situation of all the people in the small fishing village, because of the opening of this line, the town is not as feudal and closed as it was at the beginning, and the business is slowly prospering, Duan Jinxiu organized a group of fishermen to fish, collect the necessary fish every day, and at the same time she also kept the method of keeping the fish alive internally, relying on the income given by Xia Jingyu, the family's life has been greatly improved, and the fishermen along the coast have also become rich under her drive.
When the eldest son reached the age of fourteen, he settled down in a solid family in the town, although Xia Jingyu was a little sorry that the eldest son did not choose to stay in Shicheng in the end, but seeing her getting farther and farther away from the original poverty, she was also sincerely gratified. Si'er also reached the age of going to school, he followed Xia Jingyu to Shicheng and got a good education, Si'er is very cute and has a very good personality, Xia Jingyu has the heart to let Su Xiuxiu get together with Si'er, and there is a tendency to cultivate feelings since childhood, although Xiuxiu is a few years older than Si'er.
But Xiuxiu is not interested in this at all, and still likes to stick to Xia Jingyu all day long.
Another year passed, and Xia Jingyu received a letter from Wei Zeyuan, inviting her to go to Suzhou, which was a rich land, and Shicheng's purchasing power was limited, so there was no room for further development, so he asked Xia Jingyu to come to Suzhou for further development.
Xia Jingyu hesitated, her original intention was not to develop and expand her own industry, she originally just wanted to help those poor people, she asked Su Cheng's opinion, Su Cheng was stunned for a long time, he didn't speak for a long time, he put down his clenched fist, and naturally walked to her side, "Whatever you want." ”
"If you come up with some ideas, don't you have any ideas of your own?" Xia Jingyu asked.
"I don't have any ideas, just be happy, your thoughts are my thoughts." Su Cheng stood tall, raising his arms weakly, if he put his arms down at the moment, he would be able to accurately circle Xia Jingyu, but he had never really done this, and even, she was sitting on the chair with her back to her, even if she turned around, she would not see his arms.
Shicheng is already like home to her, she doesn't want to leave, she doesn't have any ambitions, such an achievement, has made her very surprised, and now she is staying in Shicheng, guarding this stable industry, spending her unknown number of lives, so that she is very satisfied.
To stay or to go, Xia Jingyu had not carefully considered this question before, in her opinion, the answer was very obvious, naturally she stayed, and she had nothing to chase. But the breeze came, and the bell led him in, and the breeze smiled at the bell, and the bell smiled at him. Qingfeng sat down with a very natural expression, in fact, for so many years, her relationship with Qingfeng is indeed relatively familiar, if there is any problem in the business, or if you need to contact Wei Zeyuan, it is all through Guò Qingfeng.
Qingfeng unceremoniously ate the fruit on the table, chatted in a homely tone, and started the topic: "Did you see the letter that the young master sent you?" ”
"See." Xia Jingyu moved a little bit to the chair, she didn't think there was anything wrong with this topic, "I don't plan to go to Suzhou, now the income of Baiwei Zhai and the Textile Bureau is good to stay in Shicheng." ”
Qingfeng stared at her for a long time, shook his head, and said with a smile: "Why do you only think about yourself, you think this place is good, then ...... What about Su Cheng, does Su Cheng also like here, his talent should be like the young master, traveling north and south. You stay here, just burying his talent. (To be continued.) )
