Gu Qing sat down on the chair: "It turns out that you want to be a maid, I have some friendship with Mrs. Song in the town, I came forward to say that I should be able to send you into the Song Mansion to do the work of serving people." ”

"I don't want to go to the Song family, I just want to serve my eldest cousin!" Lin Hua'er's tone was firm, "Big cousin, give me a chance." ”

Gu Qing shook his head.

In her previous life, she was used to doing her own things, and she naturally didn't need a maid to serve her in this life.

The people who work in her house are the employees she hired, and she is only in an employment relationship, even the Tong family who bought it only stayed in the dessert shop to work, and did not let them serve anyone in the family.

Gu Qing knows very well that once these people become maids and family members, then it will become a master-servant relationship, and she, a modern person, is not used to engaging in class antagonism.

The people in the village are lively, you come and go, and there is no disparity in identity between each other, so that she will have a sense of belonging.

Her face was indifferent, and she said lightly: "I don't need a maid here, if you don't like the work in the soap workshop, I will find someone to send you back." ”

Her tone was indifferent, but there was a hint of unquestionableness.

Lin Hua'er bit her lower lip, she could hear it, she didn't have the slightest chance with her eldest cousin.

She lowered her head, and her voice was mixed with a bit of grievance: "I also like the work of the soap workshop, but I think the eldest cousin needs people more here, since the eldest cousin doesn't need to be served, then I will continue to work." ”

She turned and went back to the workshop.

Gu Qing frowned, it seems that she has to take a preventive shot with Mrs. Gu in advance, this Lin Hua'er has to be sent away.

She got up and prepared to go to the backyard to feed the chickens and ducks.

After Yang Huai came, Gu Qing didn't do any more of these jobs, and basically handed them over to Yang Huai, but today Yang Huai followed Gu Nuo to dig wild vegetables and came back late, so Gu Qing naturally had to go to feed the chickens and ducks.

As soon as she stepped into the backyard, she heard the pigs humming and chirping in the pigsty from afar, and after a few days, the piglets had gained a lot of weight, and the chickens and ducks had reached adulthood.

The most fierce is the group of ducks, each of them is majestic, stretching their necks and walking around the backyard, very arrogant.

"Giggle!"

A hen suddenly crows and squats in the coop.

Gu Qing's eyes lit up, the first batch of chickens in the family had been more than three months ago, and it was indeed time to lay eggs.

The ducks are about the same size, so I think they have duck eggs.

The hen lays eggs during the day, and the duck lays eggs early in the morning, and the duck is more diligent than the chicken, so maybe some have been laid earlier.

Gu Qing opened the duck shed and let the ducks go out to let out the wind by themselves, and then looked around in the duck shed, and she really found five duck eggs.

Duck eggs can be saved to make salted duck eggs, and the taste is quite missable.

"Eldest sister, I'll do these things!" Gu Yu hurriedly came over, "The duck shed is dirty and smelly, eldest sister go out quickly!" ”

Gu Qing smiled: "You are busy every day, how can I leave everything to you, besides, I plan to send you and Nuo Nuo to study together after the school is built, and I don't have to do the work in this house in the future." ”

Gu Yu was stunned: "Me and Nuo Nuo are both going to study?" ”

"Of course, whether you go to the imperial examination in the future or not, this book must be read until you are sixteen years old. When you are over the age of sixteen, if you want to do something else, the eldest sister will support you unconditionally! ”

"Chief, eldest sister!" Gu Yu's eyes erupted with ecstasy, and he said incoherently, "Eldest sister, I must study hard and never live up to every penny of money spent by eldest sister!" ”

She now helps the family work every day, and follows Brother Rong and them to study at night, every day is very fulfilling, but she never thinks about the future.

Unexpectedly, the eldest sister has already helped her plan for the future, and fully respects her wishes, how can she have such a good eldest sister.

It took six days for the expansion of the soap workshop to be completed.

On the day of completion, it happened to be Gu Qing's prescribed rest day, and a carriage slowly appeared on the main road of Gujia Village on this day.

The people in the carriage were Hang Yan, a merchant who had come from Ruyang City to pick up the goods.

She lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw the verdant peaks, the scattered houses, and the orderly fields...... And in the distance, there are lively villagers gathered together.

Although Youshui County is located in Youshui Town, Youshui County is the most remote place in the entire Nanzhou, and she thought that it would be poor and bleak, everyone would not have enough food and clothing, and everyone would have yellow faces and thin muscles.

But she didn't expect that this village was much richer than she imagined, and the villagers were in excellent condition.

She got out of the carriage and felt the bustle in the distance, the breeze in the fields, and the strange tranquility of a restless heart.

Gu Qing saw three carriages from a distance, and on the side of the carriage, a familiar figure was standing.

She greeted with a smile: "Shopkeeper Hang, how long has it been, why don't you send someone over to say it." ”

"Just arrived." Hang Yan spoke softly.

Gu Qing smiled and said, "Hang shopkeeper please." ”

Gu Yu had already run into the house, poured two cups of tea, and put them in front of the two.

Hang Yan took a sip of tea and couldn't help but admire, it was really good tea, the tea in this poor countryside was not inferior to their Wancheng at all.

She asked, "What is this tea?" ”

"There are many wild tea trees growing on the mountains in the village, and some of them are picked and fried into tea, and everyone says it is delicious." Gu Qing's face did not change and perfunctory, "Shopkeeper Hang will sit for a while, and I will ask someone to send the soap for inspection." ”

Because of the release of incentives, everyone in the workshop is working overtime these days, the daily output has increased greatly, and there is a lot of soap in the warehouse.

The three types of fragrant soap, each of which was ordered for 1,000 yuan, a total of 3,000 yuan, were pushed over by the people in the workshop with a cart and placed neatly on the ground.

Hang Yan walked over and picked up a piece casually, gently unwrapped the wrapper, smelled the fragrance, and tested the hardness again, with a satisfied smile on his face.

She took out the pick-up list, and then handed over the remaining balance of one thousand seven hundred and ten taels of silver, and one thousand taels of silver tickets, plus more than seven hundred taels of silver, all of which were placed on the table.

After Yang Pei counted the payment, he collected the bill of goods back, and finally asked Hang Yan to sign his name on the booklet.

The whole process went smoothly and there were no objections from either side.

Before leaving, Hang Yan arched his hand and said: "This time I will go north by water, and I plan to transport this batch of soap to the capital to try the market, if I am lucky, about twenty days later, I will send someone to order the next batch of soap." ”

Gu Qing nodded: "Then I wish the shopkeeper Hangzhou to go north this time, and he will be successful and prosperous." ”

If soap becomes popular in the capital, it is only a matter of time before it spreads throughout the country.

The carriage of the Hang family slowly drove out of Gujia Village and disappeared on the main road.

Next, more and more caravans will come to pick up the goods, and the people in the workshop will be busy all the time.

The expanded workshop has officially started, and the new workers here are fifty people, twenty men, and the rest are women and little girls.

Some of the old employees are responsible for bringing the new employees to familiarize themselves with the working environment and content.

Old lady Gu was wearing neat and clean clothes, wearing a forehead, and patrolling around the workshop, if anyone was lazy and didn't work, she would immediately blast this person out.

Under the strict inspection of Mrs. Gu, everyone worked more seriously.
