Chapter 60 Custom Clay Pots

When she got home, Jiang Yan asked her two daughters-in-law to clean up all the wild grapes, and then returned the basket to Zhang Yanzi and his wife.

"Swallow, you keep these thirty copper plates, thank you for helping to pick grapes today."

Jiang Yan counted out thirty copper coins and handed them over, the average coolie is about 25 to 30 yuan a day, the Lin family and his wife helped pick grapes for an afternoon, Jiang Yan calculated according to 15 copper plates per person, and the salary was more reasonable.

Zhang Yanzi refused again and again, and said angrily: "What do you mean?" They all said to help you today, who asked you for a salary? And just go up the mountain for a while, do you have the money to burn so much? You can't change your loser's temperament, right? You old gua woman......"

"No, no, no!" Jiang Yan hurriedly interrupted the other party's words and continued: "I don't want you to help this day, I need your help after that, I can't take up your time every day!" ”

Zhang Yanzi pursed her mouth: "What's the matter, as long as you live a good life with a few children, my father and I will help you go up the mountain to pick something every day!" It's nothing! ”

"That's not good, I don't take advantage of you, I know you're good to us, you see this, in the future, you help me pick this green leaf every day, and I will collect it for you according to three copper coins a catty."

This green leaf can be picked without going deep into the mountain, Lin Yousheng's legs and feet are inconvenient, just some on the periphery of the mountain, which is also safe, and a basket of green leaves is not compacted, that is, about three catties, and some are compacted at most four catties, but she can make two large pots of cold tofu.

"Can you buy three copper plates a pound for these green leaves?"

"Don't worry, I've figured it out, you can take the swallow, otherwise I'll be embarrassed to ask you for help."

Zhang Yanzi glanced at Lin Yousheng behind her crampedly, I don't know if I should accept it, there are many in this green leaf mountain, she can pick two baskets a day, if she can exchange money, the life of the family will be better.

"Take it, my family has been tinkering with new food recently, and I can't go to the mountains every day, even if I don't look for you, I have to find someone else."

"Okay, let's pick it! Thank you, Xiao Jiang. ”

Lin Yousheng took the money, his eyes were a little red, after he was wounded in the war, the situation at home became increasingly difficult, and now they only dare to eat one meal a day, if they can make money, he is willing to do anything!

Jiang Yan nodded and continued: "By the way, do you know who has a kiln?" I wanted to order forty small clay pots, and then I wanted two larger barrels for the grapes I picked today. ”

Jiang Yan compared the shape of the clay pot, these mountain grapes are very suitable for making wine, the winemaking technology of this era is not good, the taste of the wine is very light, very pure, and the color is very dirty, not to mention the attractive color of grape red wine, so she plans to go directly to the big restaurant in the town to sell it when the time comes, in this case, exquisite packaging is essential.

Lin Yousheng thought thoughtfully: "There is no kiln in our village, but there is one in Liujia Village, but if you customize it, the price will be more expensive, according to the size you compare, it is estimated that it will cost a lot of money." ”

"Oops! Mother! We only made a few bucks, so we can buy some ready-made jars, customized ones are so expensive, even if we can sell rice rolls, we can't be so blind. ”

As soon as he heard that the customized ones were more expensive, Lin Beiwei screamed, looking at those wild grapes with pain on his face, he could buy some cheap cans to hold them, why should he customize them!

Jiang Yan was speechless and held her forehead, this little ghost searched: "Little four, my mother is researching new food, don't package it beautifully, don't buy it if you do a good job of those nobles, don't worry, my mother promises, I will definitely earn it back!" ”

Jiang Yan looked at the clever Lin Bei, and began to regret letting this little guy keep accounts, although the financial power is still in his own place, but how much does the family earn a day by selling rice rolls, the little guy is called a door clear, so whenever he spends money to do something, this kid is very painful, just like asking him to die.

But I don't just have money to sell cheong fun! Looks like we're going to have to send him to school sooner!

"I know Mother, I'm not afraid that you will waste it! You just don't know how to live, how expensive is the customized small clay pot, the last time I saw people in the town ready-made only three pennies a piece, if you customize, let alone seven or eight cents, you can save a little, our family has not yet landed the money to repair the house! ”

Lin Bei began to shout again, wishing that the family would save money to repair the house without eating or drinking, otherwise it would be too hot for the brothers to crowd, and he would be squeezed out of bed several times.

Jiang Yan naturally understood what he meant, and also knew that the little guy was poor and afraid, and she didn't want to sleep with Liu Xiaomeng anymore, this kid didn't snore at night, but grinded his teeth! Hey, as soon as she fell asleep, she began to grind, just like holding half a bone and hiding in the quilt to gnaw, she woke up several times, and later knew that it was after grinding her teeth, she forced herself to go to bed early every day, and she couldn't hear when she fell asleep.

I hope the second child can stand it, and the two of them snoring and grinding their teeth are a good match......

"You order it for me according to this, if the clay pot is done when the time comes, it will be whitewashed, and the bottom will be engraved with a Jiang character according to me."

Jiang Yan casually found a leaf, and roughly described the appearance of the clay pot on it, the clay pot is larger than the palm, the belly is round and fat, the shape is very cute, and it looks very high-end when it is whitewashed, and the bottom is engraved with a flying Jiang character, which is her signature when she signs documents on weekdays, and it is easy to recognize.

"I'll write my name too, but it's better than what you write, your character looks so ugly, three dots fly around, and this worker next to me looks like a duckling."

Lin Yousheng's unceremonious comment attracted Jiang Yan with a black line, this is a signature specially designed by someone she found, but it cost a lot of money!

"Ugly is ugly, just like that."

As he spoke, he counted out twenty copper plates and handed them over, as a deposit for the next order, and if it was fast, it should be received tomorrow.

After sending the Lin family and his wife away, Jiang Yan heard Lin Bei read about how much money he had spent today, and then started grading with numbers that he could only understand in his small ledger.

Jiang Yan looked at the leaves that were neatly stacked together, it was difficult for Lin Bei to make a small book by himself, when he drew the picture for the Lin family and his wife just now, he used the leaves collected by Lin Bei, although the leaf is clearly depicted, but it is not easy to preserve, it seems that I have to buy some pen, ink, paper and inkstone first.

"Mother, the third brother has come back with water, you can take a bath!"

"Wash! Everyone has to wash, from start to finish! ”

Jiang Yan nodded, doting on his brain, since the water is free, she has to take the first real bath she came here today, and she has to change the sheets and quilt covers in all the rooms to clean!
