Chapter 56: Markets and Workshops
The matter was temporarily resolved.
After leaving the Yang family, he did not go home immediately. He went to the Li family again, found Aunt Li, and told him about the situation. The follow-up person must go to Aunt Li's house to make vermicelli, so let Aunt Li know that this is the right thing to do.
After hearing Chaole's arrangement, Aunt Li thanked her repeatedly, her eyes turned red, and she held Chaole's hand and kept apologizing.
Seeing Aunt Li's age so worried, she felt guilty about apologizing to herself with red eyes, which made Chaole feel more uncomfortable. She ignored it, which caused Aunt Li's age to be troubled.
After returning to the yard, it was already late and the meal was waiting for her.
After dinner, he sent his two children back to his room. Lu Jingyan pulled Chaole to the yard and sat down, talking about the sale of vermicelli.
The most urgent task of selling is an important task that must be expanded as soon as possible. This is also what Chaole is worried about at present. When he heard Lu Jingyan mention it, he suddenly stopped and turned his head to look at the man in front of him. He hesitated for a moment and soon smiled in surprise, "Can you help me find a sales channel?"
"Do you plan to do business for a long time in the future?" Without answering Chao Le's words, Lu Jingyan asked Chao Le back.
Chaole felt a little strange about this question, but he also started to think about doing business very seriously. After a while, he looked up at Lu Jingyan and said seriously: "To be honest, I really want to do business. After all, I have many ideas in my mind to make money." When he said that, Chaole's eyes were full of light, and he was so excited that he wanted to earn a lot of money immediately and let her count it slowly.
Lu Jingyan certainly felt such excitement and expectation. A hint of helplessness flashed through his eyes, but with pampering and indulgence, he had already made a decision in his heart.
But just as Lu Jingyan almost made a decision, a voice from Chaole suddenly came from his ears, "But I am not very good at doing business, so I may give people advice, but I am really unsure of doing business by myself, so let's forget it." As he said that, he waved his hand, and the more he said, he felt that he was not suitable for business. Don't let the stalls be too big and he was unable to continue. How would those who follow her do it?
In fact, Lu Jingyan doesn't quite agree with Chaole's business, but if she really likes it, he will support it and help in secret. He had already thought about it this way, but suddenly he turned around and looked at Chaole with surprises that could not be hidden.
"You seem to be very happy?" Chaole felt that he should have read it right, and the smile on the man's face was not dazzling.
He didn't hide it, and nodded directly, and then told all his concerns and the drawbacks of Chaole's own business.
After listening to it, Chaole just wanted to curse, the damn feudal society killed people, but fortunately it was not feudal to the end. At least it did not restrict women from going out. Some women also did business, but most of them were difficult, otherwise they would have background support.
"You have some trouble. I can help you when the time comes. Just sit at home and count the silver. How about it?" Lu Jingyan had already known about Chaole's liking for silver. Seeing that she had disappointed in her eyes after she finished speaking, she immediately gave an idea.
His eyes lit up, and then he nodded without hesitation to agree, but his brothers settled the accounts clearly, and Chaole directly stated that he would cooperate with Lu Jingyan to do business in the future. Yes, cooperation, four or six, she came up with ideas and paid a certain proportion of the money, and the two of them made a lot of money together.
In the next few days, the painting class was temporarily stopped. Chaole personally went to the Li family to supervise. Aunt Li is old and has been so worried recently that she has been infected with the cold and can't get up at all. After Chaole's comfort, she simply lay down to recuperate and told her son and daughter-in-law to follow Chaole and move quickly if she needs help.
The production speed of vermicelli is extremely fast. Except for the villagers who take the goods from here to sell, most of the goods are given to Lu Jingyan's people.
Of course, everyone in the village knew Lu Jingyan. He did not take action, but asked Yingyi to arrange for someone to come and get the goods. He did not ask about the specific sale, as long as the money came back first.
In just two months, vermicelli has been sold nationwide.
Almost every household knew what vermicelli was. This thing gradually dropped from the original fifty cents per pound to twenty cents per pound, which was also considered expensive food. After all, it was more expensive than meat, but many people still liked it, and sales continued to rise and their income was considerable.
In Xiatao Village, vermicelli sells very well. Although there are competitors, the sales of those who have arranged by Lu Jingyan to buy goods and imitate them to make vermicelli cannot be compared with theirs. Because the volume is large, the Li family’s small workshop can no longer satisfy it. Yang Zhimin arranged the villagers and directly established a complete production workshop in the village.
Because the hot sales of vermicelli also added a considerable income to each company, Yang Zhimin did not hide Chaole's contribution and directly told everyone that the way to make money was given by Chaole. If the last dried sweet potato business made everyone grateful to Chaole, then this time the vermicelli business directly received everyone's gratitude.
After the successful settlement of the matter, Chaole, the person involved, was established, Chaole arranged for Liu Yue to go there. Aunt Li's eldest son was still helping the city and could not leave immediately, so he would have to wait a few days before he could come back and manage the workshop with Liu Yue.
With the workshop, Chaole also communicated with Liu Yue. Not only was it limited to selling vermicelli, but she could also launch sweet potato flour. But she didn't plan to teach the specific things that sweet potato flour could make. The five thousand years of history in China cannot underestimate the minds of the ancients, and maybe someone could invent something more delicious than she knew.
After reaching out to take the silver note handed over by Lu Jingyan, Chaole was in a great mood.
In just two months, Chaole's net income was nearly 5,000 taels of silver.
Yes, 5,000 taels, 50 liang to 20 jin per jin now, and sweet potato flour are also 50 jin per jin per jin. The people Lu Jingyan is looking for are very popular. The goods he received in just two months have become the biggest ceremonial guard in the workshop today. The income of this 5,000 taels is only Lu Jingyan's income after picking up the goods, and the income from the workshop is, she plans to settle it again in another month.
"Aunt Le, you told us to make candied haws." A head reached out from the door, looking at Chaole with expectation in his eyes.
In more than three months, I changed the baby who used to be yellow-faced and thin as a chick. Although Lu Fan is still very thin, his face has a blood color, which is longer than when he first came to home. In just three months, his head has become a little bit brighter, and his facial features are much clearer. He no longer has the cowardice and depression he used to be, but there is a smile on his face, and he has passion and yearning for life.
Looking at the little man outside who was secretly looking at him, he couldn't help but smile, waved his hand to Lu Fan outside, and signaled him to enter the house.
