Chapter 90: Stoppage
Originally, she had found a way to save some water, so that the work in the tofu factory could barely continue.
And each household also takes the leftover water from the tofu to water the ground, so that it is recycled, and a lot of water is also used.
It barely maintained the operation of the tofu factory.
Now, there is no water.
The tofu factory had to shut down.
Lin Shuqing stood in the open space in the factory, still holding his small plank, and told everyone in front of him about his future plans.
"Ladies and uncles, I'm going to stop the tofu factory for a while. There is not enough water in the field, the crops have to eat, the people have to eat, and they can't run out of water just to make tofu. ”
"In these days when there is no water, there is no need to make tofu for the time being, but this year's salary, I will still send you some, or send a hundred wen a month, for a year, not much, it is also my little heart, but it is not in vain."
"If the tofu factory continues to work later, then I will reduce the salary for everyone by 30 yuan, and only reduce it for one year?" Lin Shuqing asked this.
The tofu factory now earns a lot of money, more than 200 wen a month.
Counting the sundries distributed every year, people with a heart can earn three taels of silver a year.
The 100 wen that doesn't work will be 30 wen less a year after the change.
Although everyone is not very good at settling accounts, they still feel that they have earned it.
The matter of picking up money for nothing, less than 30 wen a year, that is only a few hundred wen, how can it be compared with 100 wen per month?
So they agreed.
Lin Shuqing felt that she was purely giving benefits to everyone.
Similar to the welfare system in later generations, although as a big capitalist, she made a lot of money from this business, but now the money invested in it is counted, and she has not returned to the capital.
The famous Pingnanpo tofu workshop in Xigui County has been open for five months and then disappeared.
Because of the lack of water, people didn't care much about the news.
Nowadays, in the fields where rice is grown, there are some people who have fish at home, and they catch a lot of fish to eat these days.
Others asked Lin Shuqing to teach the skills of this pickled fish, and in a few months, the fish was not too big.
But the water in the fields is drying up, and the lucky ones still have small puddles in the fields for the fish to live for a while.
The unlucky one had to catch the fish himself.
Half of them were divided with Lin Shuqing, and they were exchanged for a pot of soybean oil at her house.
Palm-sized fish, Lin Shuqing received a lot.
And those who raise yellow eels are a little lucky!
Fish can't swim without water, but eels are not afraid of this, and they can still live in mud without water.
The rice has to be harvested, and there are still two months, and I just hope that this yellow eel can survive a little longer and grow fatter.
Lin Shuqing didn't know these thoughts.
Just busy handling those fish at home.
The fish is small, but it's delicious when marinated in tempeh.
Even if there is no food to eat in the field in the future, these can be kept, and you can still cook.
In addition, the work in the tofu factory has stopped, and the work of making tempeh on her side has also stopped, but the bean sprouts are still there.
Wang Zhan still sends people to fetch some fresh bean sprouts every day!
Even if there are other vegetables at this time, the price of bean sprouts is still not ordinary, after all, this is the only one, and it is a delicacy that no one can grow.
However, what Lin Shuqing didn't expect was that the first accident was something else.
Pang Jin came to her to resign......
"Miss Lin, a letter was sent from home, saying that my mother is seriously ill and I have to go back to see it!" Pang Jin stepped forward and said.
Compared with when he first came to this village, Pang Jin dressed more plainly, but he was much more energetic than before, at least not so dusty.
"Mr. Pang, is he leaving?" Lin Shuqing was a little surprised.
Although there are signs of a major drought here, and I have heard that many merchants are preparing to move there, it is ......
Also, Mr. Pang is from the capital, so he has to go home to marry a wife and have children, and he can't delay his whole life in their small slope place.
People, after all, have been serious officials.
"I'll leave in a few days, I still have some things to pack."
"I planned to stay here for a few years, but I didn't want to leave in just a few months, and I still feel guilty about Miss Lin."
"Master Ji said that I will learn something else on this trip, and I did learn a lot from Miss Lin. I don't have any valuable gifts on me, so I can only send some books to Miss Lin......"
Pang Jin said, and the scholar and the guard behind him opened the two boxes they had brought.
There are piles of neat assembly books, and there are at least dozens of them.
Lin Shuqing smacked her tongue, this is not valuable, what is this?
A book is a few taels of silver, how much money does she have to save to buy it?
"Mr. Pang, you left me the book, what about yourself?"
She's not just about money, she also knows how important books are to readers.
"Don't worry, girl, these books are a copy of my collection, and I keep my own. I wrote some of my own annotations and the annotations that my teacher had given me, and several of the children were still studying, hoping to help the girl. Pang Jin said.
He said these words from the bottom of his heart.
He originally planned that when he came to this rural place, he would have to live a hard life. He is not a man who has a desire for appetite and loves to obey.
Although he didn't have much money on him, he felt that it was enough for himself.
But after coming to this place, not only did he not use much of his money, but he also made a lot of money, along with a few of his subordinates.
This time, the most valuable of them is Miss Lin's daily food.
will prepare a meal of meat for him every day, all kinds of strange practices, after all, it is a part of the girl's heart.
He thought it was vulgar to pay, and it was better to send something useful, so he copied the books.
I hope it will help a few children on the road to the imperial examination.
"Then thank you sir, when will Mr. leave, I will send Mr." Lin Shuqing said a little happy and a little sad.
Mr. Pang is a big thigh, a serious candidate who has taken the palace exam.
This is like a famous college student who passed the interview of Tsinghua University and Peking University, and finally stayed in the National Research Institute to teach, and now he is running to their village to do charity education.
If she could, she still wanted her children to learn more.
Influenced by some high-level culture.
"There are still a lot of things in the school, I have to prepare, I should leave in four or five days. This time, I have one more thing I want to trouble the girl. Pang Jin said, with a chuckle on his warm face, revealing a unique and elegant atmosphere.
"Mr. Pang can say bluntly, if you can help, I will definitely come to help!" Lin Shuqing agreed.
"I have grandparents and grandparents at home, and they are too old to eat hard things, so they want to cook some soft vegetables for them to eat. I have tasted the tofu made by the girl, and it is very suitable for the elderly. ”
