Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy
Chapter 607: Inspecting the Shop
There are new things happening every day, and life is very interesting.
In this way, the group lived in the mountains for more than half a month. Xu Han finally couldn't bear it anymore, and took Lu Chuan, Yun Hua and Zhao Yunyun, and the four of them went to the county town together.
Maybe she was used to worrying. Although she had handed over all the tasks to others, she couldn't sit still and would always be worried about them unless she went to see them in person.
The weather was good today, so after breakfast the four of them started heading towards the county town.
Slowly, it was time for lunch and the group finally arrived at the house.
Wei Yan and Guo Daya have already arrived in the county town. They didn't know that the host would come today, so they didn't prepare any meals for them.
Seeing them coming, he hurried to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Xu Han called him and said, "Stop working, let's go out to eat today."
After she finished speaking, she asked Yunhua and Lu Chuan to hand the backpacks they were carrying to Wei Yan, and then the group went to the restaurant.
We can’t eat at home every day. It’s novel to go out to a restaurant occasionally. It’s not like we can’t afford it, so of course we have to change things up.
Lu Chuan took them to a restaurant with a good reputation. They ordered some signature dishes and started eating.
After eating, Yunhua and Zhao Yunyun went back to the house, while Xu Han and Lu Chuan and his wife went to the temporary workshop.
In the makeshift workshop, everyone was busy with their work. When Xu Han entered, no one noticed her.
Finally, someone shouted, "The master and the mistress are here."
Everyone then stopped what they were doing and looked up at the two of them.
"Hahaha, you guys keep busy, I just came to see you. How are you doing lately? Are there many people delivering sweet potatoes?"
Juxiang heard the voice and came out. As soon as she saw the people, she began to report the work situation. "Madam, there are many people delivering sweet potatoes recently. The workshop can't hold them these two days.
The day before yesterday, I asked them to stop delivering sweet potatoes and to come back in February to continue delivering them. Otherwise, the workshop will not have enough space and we will have to consume some of them first.”
Juxiang was right. There were many people delivering sweet potatoes, and there was no way to distill sweet potato wine in the shop when they came. There was no extra space at all with so many people coming and going.
So we can only continue distilling sweet potato wine when they stop sending sweet potatoes. The rest of the time we can only cook and ferment the sweet potatoes.
"Well, you just make the decisions about the workshop. You don't have to tell me everything."
Juxiang invited the two into the simple office area, then took out the account book and handed it to Xu Han, "Madam, please take a look. This is the account for the recent period. I remember every day clearly."
Xu Han didn't refuse and took it. "Okay, you go ahead and do your work."
After saying that, he started flipping through the pages without waiting for Juxiang to leave.
Seeing this, Juxiang said nothing, smiled and went out to continue her work.
During this period of time, in addition to the money spent on collecting sweet potatoes every day, Juxiang also ordered a batch of wine jars and large vats for fermentation.
Apart from this, there were no special expenses and the accounts were very clean.
After looking at the workshop's accounts, Xu Han opened another account book.
At present, Juxiang is in charge of all the money in the family. Anyone who needs to buy something has to come to her to withdraw money.
It's really troublesome. It seems that I have to find someone to be responsible for the household accounts. Otherwise, it will all depend on Ju Xianggan, which is really too tiring.
After reading through both account books, Xu Han had a general understanding of the recent income and expenditure situation, and was almost clear about the progress of all matters.
Xu Han looked at Lu Chuan, who was so bored that he started drinking water, and said, "There is nothing wrong with the account."
Just as she was about to say something, Lu Chuan made a hushing gesture, and Xu Han immediately fell silent upon seeing that.
After a while, Juxiang came in and said, "Madam, Li Feng is here. Do you want to see him?"
"Li Feng? What is he doing here?"
Li Feng is now in charge of a mountain goods shop. Logically speaking, he should not have much contact with the temporary workshop. I guess he came here because of something, otherwise he would not come here at this time.
"Here comes the bullock cart. He said he's going to the vegetable farmer's house to pick up some vegetables."
"Oh, then let him in. I'll just ask him about the recent situation of the mountain goods shop."
After Xu Han finished speaking, Juxiang went to invite someone. Xu Han and Li Feng had met many times before. He was very smart and was indeed suitable for doing business. He also had some business acumen.
Li Feng came in and bowed to the two of them, "Master and Madam."
Xu Han raised her hand, motioning him to stand up. "How is the mountain goods store doing recently? Is everything going well? Have you encountered any troubles?"
"In reply to Madam, everything is going well in the shop recently. We have started business after the New Year, and we have received orders from several families. Although they are not all orders, they are exclusive.
In addition, many people from other places come to our mountain product shop to buy salted duck eggs to eat on the way home, and some even buy them to bring back to their families. "
Xu Han nodded and said, "This is a good thing. Raw salted duck eggs are difficult to transport. Now that the weather is cold, we can have them cook them before taking them away.
This way, it won’t get rotten easily during long journeys.”
Li Feng's eyes turned and the corners of his mouth rose, "Yes, ma'am, I know what to do."
Xu Han was slightly stunned. What did she say? What did he know?
But this is not important, she then asked about signing contracts with other prefectures.
After Li Feng explained in detail, Xu Han nodded in understanding.
It turned out that they were some wealthy families, and many of them liked to eat the pickles and salted duck eggs bought from the mountain product shop, so they pre-ordered some and had them delivered every month to ensure they would not be out of stock.
It was not until one day later that Xu Han found out what Li Feng knew.
It turned out that Li Feng sold a lot of salted duck eggs according to the method Xu Han told him, and even the takeaway of salted duck eggs became a long-term business.
Every month thereafter, the shop made a lot of money from selling salted duck eggs.
For people who have to travel long distances, Li Feng will cook the food for free and take it away to avoid it getting damaged on the way.
Every winter thereafter, when the weather was cold, Li Feng sold the salted duck eggs directly to the provincial capital and other nearby cities.
Later, as time went by, the Lu family's salted duck eggs became more and more famous, and were even sold to the capital and the south.
It is precisely because of what Li Feng did today that salted duck eggs have become a living signboard of the Lu family.
Li Feng also found a better way out for himself, and step by step, he became Xu Han's right-hand man and capable assistant.
Of course, this is a story.
After staying in the temporary workshop for a while, the couple turned around and went to the tavern again.
The operation of the tavern is normal, business is still booming, and there are no special circumstances.
