In fact, even toothpaste, toothbrushes, soaps, shower gels, etc., these common and simple things used in later generations can be classified as luxury goods in the current Tang Dynasty, and they are not affordable for ordinary people.

The ordinary people are only busy for food and clothing, and nothing has changed since ancient times. Unless commodities can be produced on a large scale, unless incomes can be greatly increased.

Relying on farming and doing odd jobs, they will always be the lowest income group. Perhaps, it will be precarious.

Well, it is impossible for Xu Qilin to significantly increase the income of the people for the time being, but this does not prevent him from becoming a small group of people who got rich first.

After listening to Xu Bao's report, Xu Qilin was very satisfied. The strict rules and regulations and the implementation of the reward and punishment mechanism have made the operation of the workshop more and more like that of the enterprise in later generations.

Don't look at Xu Bao is the general supervisor, but the finance is in charge of the Hu account room, and there is also the deputy director in charge of production, sales, and logistics, and the mechanism of mutual supervision has been formed, which also saves Xu Qilin the fatigue of doing everything.

"It's good that the workshop is running so smoothly, and you have a lot to blame." Xu Qilin praised again, and said generously: "Go to the account room to receive two rewards, and I know that you are going to marry, so if you are tight, you will say a word, and borrow from the account room first." ”

Xu Bao hurriedly bowed down and thanked him, and said no, "The small one has today, and it all depends on Ah Lang to lift it." took the first share of the salary, and built a house and courtyard on the village, and the small ones were grateful and could not be repaid. ”

Xu Qilin smiled and said, "Well, listening to this, you will know that you have grown." Knowing more words, reading more books, and meeting more people is good in the end. Okay, you don't have to say this polite thing in front of me, just do it. If it's all right, just step down! ”

"Yes, the little one." Xu Bao bowed and retreated to the door, before turning around and leaving, extremely humble.

Scarlett saw Xu Bao leaving, and couldn't help but say, "Two rewards, Ah Lang is too generous, right?" ”

Xu Qilin smiled and said: "Xu Bao is indeed doing a good job, and if he wants to marry a relative, he will be rewarded more, which can make him grateful and make him work harder." There are clear rewards and punishments, which is also an important way to open a good workshop. ”

Scarlett nodded, since Ah Lang said so, she remembered it by heart, and regarded it as a golden rule.

Xu Qilin talked about some business concepts and methods by the way, and it was not until Xiao Zhao ran in that he stopped.

"Rest, you can stay for a few days, don't get too tired." Xu Qilin poured a cup of warm tea for her sister-in-law, and wiped her sweat with a silk scarf.

Xiao Zhao picked up the teacup and drank happily, raised his red little face and smiled: "Brother, didn't you say that you can still row a small boat, let's go after lunch?" ”

"I just said don't worry!" Xu Qilin said: "It's so hot in the afternoon, if you want to row, tomorrow morning is good." In the evening, let's go to the house on the edge of the lotus pond to live. ”

After a pause, Xu Qilin added: "This year, the pond has just been opened to divert water, and the lotus has just been planted, so it is worse." Next year's scenery should be good, the lotus leaves are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers are different red. It's pleasing to the eye! ”

Xiao Zhao pursed the corners of his mouth, his big eyes slightly bent into crescents, as if he was imagining the beautiful scenery, with a look of longing.

A large depression in the hills, slightly trimmed and dug deep, and the water is brought in, which is a small artificial lake of about ten acres. The depression is just gourd-shaped, so a small wooden bridge was built at the narrow waist, and if you don't want to row, you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lotus pond when you look down from the bridge.

A small courtyard was built on the high ground dozens of meters away from the lotus pond, and a two-story small building was erected, there were not many houses, and the bamboo transplanted around did not grow too tall, but it also revealed a bit of elegance.

Xiao Zhao really didn't expect that his brother had already cultivated this Zhuangzi to such a scale, and he didn't know that Xu Qilin had invested nearly half of the profits of the fragrance business into it.

Under the curtain erected by the lotus pond, the barbecue grill has been erected, and the meat skewers sizzle on the charcoal fire, and the grease falls and is burned by the charcoal fire, exuding a mouth-watering fragrance.

Xiao Zhao sat on the bench and swing, quietly looking at the distant mountains in the slow leisure, as well as the sunset and the lotus pond changing colors, without the cheerful beating of such an age, I don't know what to think.

Xu Qilin rode a horse, accompanied by Wu Xiang and others, and slowly approached from afar.

After inspecting the finished workshop, rewarding the craftsmen and teaching the manufacture of cold soap, he went to see a specially set aside vegetable patch.

According to his explanation, the vegetable field has been planted with small cabbage, small pine cabbage, tower cabbage, small tang vegetables, and in some time, turnips will be planted.

It's not that Xu Qilin likes to eat these kinds of dishes, but that he wants to breed a new variety and put a big satellite in Datang's agriculture.

I don't know how many years it will take to succeed, maybe I will always achieve nothing. Xu Qilin was riding on a horse, still thinking about this question. But this can only be left to fate, and he doesn't have much to do.

Anyway, if you plant it, it will not be white, and it will grow to eat, which is just right to provide vegetables for Zhuangzi and the workshop. Xu Qilin thought so, but also let go of his impatience and entanglement.

When he came to the lake, Xu Qilin dismounted, walked under the cloth shed, and found that the little sister was not as lively as usual, and she didn't even greet him closely, which couldn't help but be a little strange.

Sitting on the bench and swing, Xu Qilin followed the girl's gaze, the scenery was picturesque, the breeze was breezy, people couldn't help but be immersed in it, their hearts were quiet and comfortable, and they were really too lazy to speak.

The brother and sister sat like this until the sunset did not go behind the mountain, leaving only a gorgeous sunset.

Xiao Zhao sighed softly and said faintly: "Those two birds, let's give them to Sister!" In the palace, every day is that day, those palaces, those flowers and plants, it's really lonely! ”

Xu Qilin glanced at her sister and asked suspiciously, "Didn't you say that Sister Xijing doesn't want any noisy birds?" ”

Xiao Zhao laughed twice, and with some surprise, he wrapped his hand around his ear, and whispered, "I, I lied." ”

Hehe, Xu Qilin reached out and touched the little sister's head, and said with a smile: "Wucai and Liniang are still yours, you want to send me to buy them again!" ”

Xiao Zhao looked at his brother with big black eyes and asked, "Will the birds you buy be so smart and clever?" ”

"It shouldn't be much worse." Xu Qilin said confidently: "You don't have to worry about this. ”

After a pause, Xu Qilin asked curiously, "Looking at the scenery, why do you think of Sister Ah again?" In fact, I have my own thoughts, and Sister Ah may not feel bad in the palace. ”

Xiao Zhao let out an "um" and said, "Anyway, I don't think I'm free." Thinking of what my brother said in the past, I realized it today. ”

Xu Qilin nodded, very relieved in his heart, the girl finally agreed with her own thoughts, and she should not enter the royal and Houmen that are as deep as the sea.
