242: Full Moon Feast
Xiaolian was pleasantly surprised, and when Gu Qiqi finished explaining, she quickly finished learning how to use this little cart.
"Okay, I got it. With this small cart, the little boy can play in the small cart in the future, and we can also make it a lot easier. ”
Mama Kuan nodded Xiaolian's head: "In the future, you will be the little boy's handmaid, so it is not right for you to follow the little boy and do something." ”
Xiaolian smiled: "I know it should be, I mean, at least the hands don't have to be so sore." ”
"The little boy likes to play in the yard, and when the weather is warm in spring, he has to be hugged in the yard all day long."
"With this little cart, you can be more leisurely, and you can do something else when you are free."
Gu Qiqi: "That's right, but when he is older, he can't be careless, you have to prevent him from falling out of the cart, and he can't be separated from him." Don't even think about doing anything else. Your task is to take care of the little boy. You don't have to worry about other things at home. ”
Xiaolian: "Don't worry, girl. I will definitely take care of the little boy to be healthy, white and tender. ”
Gu Qiqi nodded: "Then it's hard for you." The little one has just reached the full moon, so don't play outside for too long. Let's almost go inside. I won't go inside, there's a lot of stuff waiting for me outside. ”
Xiaolian: "Okay. Then I'll take the little boy in first. ”
When Xiaolian and Mama Kuan took Gu Qiyang back to the house, Gu Qiqi and Nangong Ye left.
The second day was Gu Qiyang's full moon banquet.
On this day, the Gu Mansion was particularly lively.
It can be said that all the officials in Yongdu City came, and there were also many big families that could not be said to have come.
After all, this is a good opportunity to get up close and personal with Dayong's first female official.
Of course, approaching Gu Qiqi was not to make it bad, but to see if we could talk about business cooperation.
Or if you can't talk about cooperation, listen to the business experience, learn it, and invite Gu Qiqi to help give you some advice.
Looking at Gu Qiqi, whether it is a small shop or a workshop, one after another, he knows that his business mind is not simple.
If you are casually taught, you may or may not be able to succeed.
Gu Qiqi on this day thought it was his brother's full moon banquet, and he didn't have anything to do, so it should be very easy.
As a result, all the guests gathered around her after seeing them off.
Small talk of small talk, talk about business talk about business.
Of course, there is more business than small talk.
Boss No. 1: "Mrs. Fulu, I heard that you are tossing a new workshop this year, what kind of business are you going to do, we have a chance to cooperate." ”
Gu Qiqi: "If you have the opportunity, then it is naturally possible, what kind of business do you have?" ”
Boss No. 1: "The old man's surname is Yuan, and he runs a textile workshop and a cloth village. However, in the past two years, disasters have continued, and this business has become more and more difficult. ”
Gu Qiqi: "Why?" Isn't it supposed to have little impact? ”
Boss Yuan smiled: "I see that Mrs. Fulu has never done this kind of business. The cloth village is not affected, but the textile mill is affected. ”
Then Boss Yuan explained their current difficulties to Gu Qiqi in detail.
At present, there are three kinds of cloth in Dayong, one is linen, one is cotton, and the other is silk.
Linen cloth is generally processed into fine hemp rope with hemp and then spun into cloth.
Cotton is naturally cotton used.
Silk is mulberry silk.
Ma is basically planted in every household.
However, there is no large-scale planting of cotton in Dayong at present, only a small number of farmers, those with abundant fields will plant some, and some owners with Zhuangzi will plant some.
However, these are far from meeting Dayong's needs.
Therefore, the raw materials of cotton cloth - cotton thread or cotton, and even silk thread, the raw material of silk, these Dayong can only be purchased by trading with friendly countries.
But this tends to be expensive.
Especially the silk thread.
Therefore, after the silk is processed, it will be frighteningly expensive, and a good silk can be sold for hundreds of taels.
These are things that ordinary people dare not touch in their lives.
In the past two years, because of the disaster, cotton and hemp could not be satisfied, and the raw materials were insufficient, and the cloth could not be woven.
Looking for a friendly country to buy, the friendly country is sitting on the ground and starting the price. This is the difficulty of the cloth owner.
Raw materials are expensive, but the price they sell cannot rise, and they are basically losing money by removing labor.
After listening to Boss Yuan's words, Gu Qiqi realized that this was indeed the case, the original owner was a northerner, and some northerners would grow cotton by themselves, but basically to meet the needs of their own families.
Later, when they went to the south, there was more hemp planted in the south.
But whether it is in the south or the north, she really hasn't seen silkworm farming.
Also, if not, it would not be without mulberries to sell.
Because she had never thought about doing business in this area, she didn't go deeper.
Since the crossing, her research has basically been eating.
It seems that after this time, she has paid more attention to other aspects.
You see, this understanding is not another big business.
After listening to Boss Yuan's words, Gu Qiqi said with a smile: "Boss Yuan, don't worry, the raw materials of silk may not be worrying from this year onwards." As for cotton, maybe this year, maybe next year, in short, these problems can be solved in the last two years. ”
She can arrange to raise silkworms, and even if she doesn't build a workshop by herself, she can sell silkworm cocoons directly.
Or you can open your own processing workshop and process silk threads.
She has space for mulberry trees, just graft a batch out, as for silkworm seeds, then you have to find Nangong Ye.
When she goes out, whichever country imports silk thread from our country, just go to which country to get some to raise.
Cotton has high requirements for the planting environment, and Xinjiang is the largest cotton planting base in the modern world.
The country that can import cotton to our country today should also be rich in cotton.
When Nangong Ye recovers that country, it will not be an import and export goods, and the price will be relatively cheaper.
However, silkworm farming is not suitable for the north.
When the time comes, it can be arranged in Jiangdu City.
Speaking of Jiangdu City, Gu Qiqi immediately had a good venue for her to choose.
That's where Jianshan Village took refuge during the previous disaster relief.
Their original village was flooded into a lake.
Later, it moved to the mountains, which are not very suitable for growing rice, and last year the villagers planted corn and sweet potatoes, as well as potatoes.
It is then exchanged for rice after being sold.
The location belongs to the mountain, the area is wide, open up the wasteland, planted mulberry trees, and the cultivation of silkworms is just right.
Giving it to the villagers to raise it can also give them some additional income.
Boss Yuan was overjoyed when he heard Gu Qiqi's words, and said, "With Mrs. Fulu's words, the old man believes you, and the old man can wait." ”
Gu Qiqi: "Okay." ”
