As she spoke, Qingshuang came back with Yinhong. After a while, Chen Cai's family also returned. I asked the Bai family, and the family, and the family brought it up to kowtow to the Bai family. The Bai family asked a few words each, and finally decided that the Liu family and the Wang family each had a daughter, one was seven years old and the other was eight years old. Bai and Master Liu, Master Wang said that they wanted them to enter the inner house to be the girl's personal maid. Master Liu and Master Wang looked at the green frost and Yinhong standing next to them, wearing silk and satin, and gold and silver on their heads, thinking that their daughters could be like them in the future, not to mention how happy they were. Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Wang even kowtowed to the ground. Chen Wenhui looked at the two girls and said, "What's your name?" The two children were already confused, where could they answer, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Wang on the side were busy answering on behalf of their daughters, one is called Liu Xiaocui, and the other is called Wang Xiaolian. Chen Wenhui nodded and said, "Since you are with me, change your name." One is called Cui Qiao and the other is called Bi Lian. "Cui Qiao, Bi Lian kowtowed under the leadership of her mother to thank you. Bai nodded.

Mrs. An on the side didn't have a taste in her heart. They are just working in oil mills, not as good as farmers, and now the Liu family and the Wang family can actually go to the county magistrate's house to be maids, what a good thing. You don't have to raise your children, and you can still get monthly money. The people around the daughter of the magistrate, this is enough for relatives and friends to envy. Just thinking about it. Bai said to Mrs. An again: "I think this kid of yours is good, how old is he?" An Pozi was overjoyed and hurriedly replied, "Eleven years old." Bai Shi nodded and said, "Well, I just want to be a little maid for the eldest young master, what's your name?" Can you read words? An Pozi smiled embarrassedly: "It's called a dog, how can people like us be literate?" Bai said: "If you don't know how to read, it doesn't matter, and when you enter the house, you will have someone who teaches him to read." Not only the little maid with the master, but also the maid with the girl will also be taught to read and settle accounts. Let's change the name of Ann Gou'er. The eldest young master already has a personal servant called Xiyan, and this one is called Chunbo. As soon as these words were said, not only the people of the Liu family and the Wang family were happy, but Mrs. An was also happy. Literacy and accounting, that's not what ordinary people know. With these two things, even if you are no longer in the master's house in the future, or if you change the master, you can live better than ordinary people, and it will be easier to get married. The people of the An family, the Liu family, and the Wang family were busy kowtowing and thanking them. Master An, Master Liu, and Master Wang's originally faint faces were full of gratitude. Chen Wenhui watched silently from the side. I thought to myself, and learned another trick from the ancients.

After dealing with these personnel, Bai went to look at the account book again. The original bookkeeper had already returned to Wang's house. The ledger that belonged to the Wang family before was also taken away. This Mr. Tent is newly found, surnamed Yuan, and is known as Mr. Yuan. Actually, I'm only in my 20s, but I've been working as a bookkeeper for many years. Bai first called Mr. Yuan to inquire carefully. This Mr. Yuan is in his early 20s and has fair skin. Bai asked: "I heard the housekeeper say that although you are not very old, you have been a bookkeeper for almost ten years, right?" Chen Wenhui was very curious when she heard this. Mr. Yuan said: "Yuan Mao, who was born later, was a member of the Yuan family in the local account, so he was taught by his own family since he was a child. At the age of ten, he began to work as an apprentice in the tent of the shop, and three years later he became a teacher, and he has been working as a tent for nine years. Bai was relieved after hearing this. After a few more questions, I started looking at the ledger. watched it for a while and discussed it with Yuan Mao for a while. After about a meal, Yuan Mao left. Chen Wenhui hurriedly asked Bai's: "Mother, what kind of home is the Yuan family in the tent?" Bai said, "I knew early on that you were going to ask." The Yuan family is a well-known family in the local area. It is also a major specialty of Anseong. The Yuan family's family is not small, but the whole family is a tent, and almost half of the tents in our Great Chu Dynasty are people from the Yuan family or apprentices of the Yuan family. So it's very famous. Only such a family can have such a young and excellent account. Now Chen Wenhui is happy, and she has met the ancient Chinese Jews. It's a great resource, so make sure you take advantage of it. Chen Wenhui secretly remembered it in her heart. But it was not shown on the face.

Bai called the housekeeper Chen Cai again and told him to disassemble the soybean oil machine and use the male servants at home to smuggle it in, and not to hire outside coolies. After it arrived, the method of frying soybean oil was taught to three masters. After receiving the order, Chen Cai took the opportunity to ask: "Madam, last time we tried to squeeze soybean oil, we found that a lot of bean dregs would be produced, how to deal with it?" Chen Wenhui hurriedly said: "I forgot to tell the housekeeper, the book said that this bean dregs is a good thing, and it is best to raise pigs. When Bai heard this, he said: "According to what the girl said, you let people build a pigsty and buy piglets to raise, saving waste." Wen Hui remembered something again and said: "Pig manure can't be wasted, it's better to let people buy some fields around here, and use pig manure in the fields, the crops are high-yielding." "Bai's surprise said"|Why is Hui'er pickled here? Know everything? Chen Cai said: "Although pickled, but the girl's words are good, there is no need to buy land, our Zhuangzi is not far from here, and the people on the Zhuangzi can pull it, but the fertilizer water does not flow into the fields of outsiders." As soon as Bai saw that Chen Cai agreed, he ordered him to do so. then took Chen Wenhui and a group of people back to the county government's house.

Half a month later, Bai was chatting with Chen Wenhui in the room, and the housekeeper Chen Cai asked to see him. Bai let him in. Chen Cai kowtowed and said: "Madam, the oil mill has already produced oil, and this batch has a total of more than 3,000 catties of oil. Among them, there are 2,000 catties of sesame oil and 1,000 catties of soybean oil. After hearing this, Bai said, "Did you take it to the grocery store and sell it on sale?" Chen Cai said: "Back to Mrs. Hui, after the oil was fried, Master Liu proposed to cooperate with the original oil mill owner Wang Jia to take the oil to his shop for consignment. His family has many grocery stores, most of which deal in grain and oil, all over the province. Bai Shi listened thoughtfully. Chen Wenhui thought for a while and said to Bai: "Mother, our oil mill can actually fry more soybean oil, but the stock of soybeans is small, and the people don't grow soybeans much. If you find a good partner to promote the planting of soybeans together, there will be a large supply. Also, although soybean oil is delicious, it is not something that our family can do to promote it. Rather than cherish the secret of a small fight, it is better to find a good partner to promote it, and everyone will earn money. Chen Cai was taken aback, glanced at Chen Wenhui, and quickly lowered his head. Bai Shi was also taken aback, and lowered his head to think again. said to Chen Cai: "You go down first, and when the master goes down to the palace, he and the master come to the backyard, and I will discuss it with him." Chen Cai said yes and went down.

After Chen Cai left, Bai Shi looked at Chen Wenhui carefully and said, "Hui'er, how can you have these thoughts. You're only six years old, how do you know that?" Chen Wenhui smiled: "Mother, I watch you deal with housework every day, and after watching it for a long time, if you don't even understand this truth, aren't you a stupid person?" Bai happily hugged Chen Wenhui: "You are not a stupid person, I have a good daughter of Lan Xinhui." Chen Wenhui happily snuggled into Bai's arms.

In the evening, Bai told Chen Yuanheng these words. Chen Yuanheng was also surprised that Chen Wenhui knew these things at such a young age. The surprise was followed by a face full of joy. Chen Yuanheng said to his wife: "Madam, we gave birth to a phoenix." Bai was also very happy when he heard this. He also discussed with Chen Yuanheng in detail whether Chen Wenhui's proposal was feasible. Chen Yuanheng pondered for a moment and said: "The Wang family has fertile land, and there are shops all over the province, specializing in grain and cooking oil. There is also a money bank in the local area. It is also a big family in Anseong. The current head of the family is named Wang Yihe. This person is very shrewd and has the identity of a showman. I'll tell him about it, and if you have time, take the kids to his house for a walk. Bai agreed.

The next day, Chen Yuanheng posted a post asking Wang Yihe to talk about it. Wang Yihe happily attended the meeting. Chen Yuanheng first thanked Wang Yihe for giving the oil mill, and then asked Chen Cai to bring a jar of sesame oil and soybean oil to Wang Yihe. Sesame oil is just that. The Wang family has several sesame oil mills. Wang's sesame oil has always been well-known locally. Soybean oil Wang Yihe is the first time I have seen it. It doesn't have the fragrance of sesame oil, but it's brighter than sesame oil. Wang Yihe asked, "My lord, what kind of oil are you?" Chen Yuanheng said: "This is the unique soybean oil of the Chen family. Come on, let Brother Wang taste the dishes made with soybean oil. The little guy responded with a plate of vegetables fried in soybean oil. Wang Yihe confessed his sins and took a bite. The mouth is full of fragrance, without the greasy taste of lard stir-frying, and it is delicious. Wang Yihe was very interested. Chen Yuanheng said with a smile: "Brother Wang, how about this soybean oil?" Wang Yihe praised repeatedly. Chen Yuanheng took the opportunity to say words of cooperation. Wang Yihe was overjoyed. Finalize the cooperation now. Later, the two families vigorously planted soybeans in their own fields, and at the same time used the Wang family's grain store to sell oil. The profits are divided between the two companies. Chen Yuanheng only got sixty percent of his skills, and the Wang family contributed more but got forty percent, but Wang Yihe didn't feel a loss at all, because in this era, there is too much difference between official asylum and unofficial asylum in business, and tax alone is very cheap, not to mention that Chen Yuanheng is not just as simple as Ancheng Zhixian, he also has Wang Yihe behind him and the Chen family who can't stammer. If Chen Yuanheng's heart is a little dark, there is absolutely no problem. But Chen Yuanheng did not do this for the sake of long-term development, but only divided it into six or four, so Wang Yihe was overjoyed.

The matter was negotiated, and next, Chen Cai transported 1,000 catties of soybean oil to the Wang family's grain store. The Wang family was responsible for helping the Chen family buy soybeans. And he started growing soybeans in his own fields. Anseong is located in the south of the Yangtze River, with a good climate and fertile land. Two crops a year is normal. At this time, it was spring, and after a while, the early rice was harvested, and there was still time to plant a season of soybeans. In this way, if you have your own soybean field, you don't have to worry about the lack of raw materials in the oil mill. As soon as the Bai family heard the Wang family's thoughts, they hurriedly asked Ziyu to instruct their Zhuangzi to plant early rice and rush to plant a season of soybeans.

As expected, soybean oil attracted the attention of many people as soon as it came out, and under the vigorous promotion of the Wang family, a thousand catties of soybean oil were quickly sold. As soon as the Wang family saw that the profits were really large, they instructed their families to bring the thousands of catties of soybeans purchased from shops in other places to the oil mill, so that there would be a steady stream of business. In fact, Chen Cai has been buying soybeans in Anseong, and the soybeans in Anseong are almost gone. It also led to the high price of soybeans in Anseong, because of this reason, many quick-thinking landlords and farmers changed to soybeans after early rice. The Wang family, as a big grain merchant in Ancheng, naturally knew about this situation early on, so they bought soybeans from their own shops in other places from the beginning, so the price of soybeans was cheaper than that purchased by Chen Cai. The silver was sent to the Bai clan along with the accounts. Bai Shi was very happy when he looked at the silver money in his hand. Praise her daughter for being a god of wealth. And identified three points: first, doing business is faster than the money from the field, and we should develop more business in the future. Second, it's better to cooperate. Third, listen to your daughter's opinions. Bai thought that if it went on like this, returning to the capital was not an unattainable dream.
