Chapter 60: Witchcraft
It's a pity that Lu Yi didn't think about that at all, he was full of inexhaustible bubble water, and he was really happy now, with a smile in the corners of his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were uncontrollably hooked.
"Really? Thank you so much! Even the words became a lot more sincere, and it seemed that the thank you just now was so pale and weak.
Xue Rou keenly felt the difference, and suddenly felt a little congested, turned around and went back to the house, and took two pieces of soap, one to send to Ah Qi's house, and one to Lu Yi.
And then I got a lot of compliments.
Even Ah Qi, holding the smooth and delicate soap in his hand, his face was actually much milder than usual.
The next day.
As Xue Rou said, at noon, the mold was already ready, because of the large number, the carpenter shop also delivered the goods directly to the door, and the service attitude was good.
Xue Rou picked up a few casually and checked them, and found that the pits inside were about the same shape and size, and the wood was very smooth, with no small wooden thorns at all, and she was satisfied with the final payment.
At this time, the labor cost is actually not valuable, so even if Xue Rou orders more than 100 molds in one go, it doesn't cost much.
But Rao is like this, the money in Xue Rou's hands who is sitting at home is still decreasing, and Xue Rou is a little eager to find a long-term way to make money.
Xue Rou went to the butcher shop again and successfully got the pork pancreas and lard she had ordered the day before. The lard board is white, and the pig pancreas is also clean, Xue Rou didn't expect the service of the owner of the butcher shop to be so appropriate, and she was surprised, and she happily booked the portion for tomorrow, and the happy boss's eyes were about to smile.
The owner of the butcher shop is very honest in business, Xue Rou asked for a lot, and gave Xue Rou a few little pig's trotters.
Carrying these things, Xue Rou once again found the group of slaves she had bought.
As soon as they entered, those simple and honest former peasants and slaves all stood up in panic.
knew that it was this reaction, Xue Rou reluctantly talked about it, she originally wanted to give a gentle condolence yesterday, to comfort these people, to shorten the distance between herself and these people.
Unexpectedly, the plan couldn't catch up with the changes, and was broken by Ah Hu's sudden intrusion, and the condolence plan was shattered in an instant.
Fortunately, it doesn't get in the way.
The so-called seeing people's hearts for a long time, and after a long time together, these people will naturally know how she behaves, she dares to pat her chest and say that she is definitely the most benevolent owner here, there is no one.
After everyone gathered, Xue Rou repeated the steps she had taken to make soap yesterday, and asked them to do as they said.
These people are very obedient, maybe they are used to being oppressed, no matter what Xue Rou says, they are very obedient to carry it out, even if they don't understand these strange practices very much.
For example, it is obviously the bottom of the pot, but it is so troublesome to add water to boil and filter; For example, the oil that is obviously used for eating should be used to put it in the ashes at the bottom of the pot; Another example is the constant stirring, which makes their hands start to sore.
When Xue Rou was guiding the overseer on the side, she heard a few people whispering that she was performing witchcraft, and her head was suddenly full of black lines.
She is a good law-abiding citizen in the 21st century, how could she practice witchcraft?
This is absolutely slander, slander, great slander!
But she couldn't explain what she was doing to these people who didn't even know what soda ash was, so she had to eat Coptis chinensis dumbly, and she couldn't say what she was suffering.
Making soap is a physically demanding and time-consuming job, Xue Rou spent all the afternoon in the yard, and finally when it was getting late, pieces of round regular soap appeared in front of her.
Because of the addition of pig pancreas, this piece of soap is more perfect than the soap Xue Rou made yesterday, and it feels more delicate to the touch, Xue Rou is very satisfied.
Soap will not be easily broken, Xue Rou directly waved his hand, and asked these people to do this for the next few days, and if they did well, there were thirty copper plates and a chicken leg to eat every day.
The crowd, who was still a little afraid, suddenly became lively, chattering and discussing, and there was a little more vitality on their bodies.
A man with a wrinkled face and neat teeth took the lead in running to Xue Rou and bowing forty-five degrees, his mouth kept talking: "Thank you, thank you, thank you, we will definitely do a good job." ”
This person looked a little familiar, Xue Rou squinted her eyes and recalled carefully.
It's not that Xue Rou is not careful, but these people were unkempt when they bought it at the beginning, Xue Rou couldn't see their faces clearly, and after washing it, these people saw Xue Rou eager to lower her head to her chest, only revealing the top of her round head, and there were not many people who were familiar with Xue Rou.
Two seconds later, Xue Rou showed a sudden expression, she remembered that when she was working before, it was this person who was the first to say that she was practicing witchcraft, and she was stunned and full of fear when everyone else said it, but now she was the first to run to thank her.
So sleek, this man ...... She loves it!
Honest people have the benefits of honest people, but a group of honest people is not what Xue Rou wants to see, she originally wanted to recruit another person to manage these honest people, but now it seems that she doesn't have to spend any extra money.
Xue Rou: "What's your name?" ”
The man paused for a moment, not understanding what Xue Rou meant, and said carefully: "Go back to the east house, the little one's name is Wang San." ”
"Wang San is right?" Xue Rou smiled, "Okay, I remember you, I have seen your performance today, and I am very satisfied with you." ”
Suddenly, Wang San's sweat came down, her performance today? She recalled her nonsense and laziness just now, her voice trembled, her knees weakened, and she knelt on the ground: "Boss, the little one knows that he is wrong, please give the little one another chance." ”
The movement here made the rejoicing crowd fall silent for a moment, and a pair of eyes looked at it in unison.
Xue Rou didn't expect her to react so much, she suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, she helped the person up, "What are you doing here?" I said that I was very satisfied with you, why do you want me to give you another chance? Well? ”
Wang San subconsciously raised his head and encouraged and was kind to Xue Rou (?) The heart was relieved, and the brain that was shut down began to slowly think about the meaning of the owner.
An incredible thought came to mind: Could it be that the owner didn't say the opposite? Didn't you mean to mock her?
Until Xue Rou left, Wang San was still a little incredible, she looked at her old partners: "What does the owner mean, is it for me to be the team leader, the administrator?" "The team leader and administrator are both new terms that Xue Rou said just now, and Wang San is still a little stuttering when he says it.
The others happily came over and gossiped, "Yes, Wang San, you are so lucky, the owner said that she is very optimistic about you." ”
"What did you do to make the owner think so highly of you?"
"Do you have silver in your hand? Can you show us? ”
......
As he spoke, someone stretched out his hand towards the silver in Wang San's hand, but Wang San dodged it, "Look at it, this is silver, can you touch it casually?" Don't hurry up and get to work! ”
"Cut ......" everyone's mouths made disdainful sounds, but they still obediently continued their work.
