"That's not difficult." Xiao Liu said hurriedly. Her husband usually farms, and when he is not busy, he does odd jobs. He hasn't worked for a long time, and there is no one in the family who earns money. If he can really get this job, he can earn 300 coins in two days. He would be a fool not to do it.

A few people who were watching the fun originally wanted to fight for it, but Xiao Liu got there first. Even if they had that intention, they couldn't say much.

Wen Qingcheng and Ye Xiuying smiled at each other and nodded. Wen Qingcheng said with a smile, "Sister-in-law is a straightforward person. Then you can take these three skins back and start cleaning them. You must wash them several times to ensure that there is no smell."

When Xiao Liu heard that she would be given the opportunity to work on all three skins, she would be able to earn 900 coins. She was so happy that her eyes narrowed into slits.

Among the onlookers, an old lady said in a veiled tone, "Xiao Liu, can you handle all three of these? Don't let them delay things for you."

Xiao Liu rolled her eyes at her immediately and said, "Aunt Gu, look at what you are saying. My mother-in-law has always been a capable person. She is better than those people who do nothing all day and are just weird. If our family works together, we can finish it in a few days. Not to mention three, we can finish ten at least."

Xiao Liu knew that these people would definitely be jealous of the money she made, and was afraid that Wen Qingcheng and her daughter would go back on their word, so she hurriedly put her arm around Ye Xiuying and said, "Sister Ye, let's go to my house. Tell me how to do it, and I promise to clean it up for you."

Wen Qingcheng and Ye Xiuying smiled at each other. In fact, it would be less troublesome to outsource the work to Xiao Liu. Whether she did it herself or outsourced it to someone else, as long as it was not delayed, it would be fine.

Wen Qingcheng smiled brightly, "Sister-in-law is such a straightforward person, let's go."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Liu happily got on the Wen family's carriage. Wen Qingcheng pulled the donkey skin directly to Xiao Liu's house.

Wen Qingcheng felt relieved immediately after skipping the cleaning process. She spent the next two days preparing the stove and going to the county town to buy houses and shelves. Ye Xiuying was responsible for looking after the children at home and keeping an eye on the progress of the repairs in the backyard workshop.

The Wen family is now very busy. The villagers are looking forward to seeing the door of the Wen family open and bricks and tiles and building materials being transported in one after another.

Now almost half of the people in the village have heard that the Wen family outsourced the donkey skin cleaning job to Xiao Liu, and they are all extremely envious. Those who usually don't contact her are all rushing to talk to Ye Xiuying. If the Wen family becomes bigger in the future, they will definitely recruit workers, and at this time it will come down to who has the closest relationship.

Wen Family House

Old Mrs. Wen went to another village to sell eggs and came back with an empty basket. She heard about what happened to Wen Qingcheng along the way. When she came back and saw her son and daughter-in-law, both grown men and strong laborers, but couldn't make a penny at home, she felt very angry.

"Mom, what's wrong? You have a gloomy face as soon as you come back." Zhang Sufen was sitting on the bed sewing shoe soles. She looked up and saw Old Lady Wen coming back with a sullen face, as if others owed her a lot of money.

Wen Yufeng seemed to be in a good mood, fiddling with her cosmetics in front of the dressing table. Old Mrs. Wen came in without even raising her eyes.

Old Lady Wen passed by Wen Yufeng and patted her gently, "You only know how to take pictures. You can't make any money by fiddling with those things all day long."

Old Lady Wen compared Wen Yufeng with Wen Qingcheng and had long regretted treating Wen Qingcheng that way. Otherwise, even if she was not her biological grandmother, Ye Xiuying would definitely take her to the luxurious courtyard and have no worries about food and drink. But no one had foresight, and for the sake of these two unpromising sons, they gave up living a good life with Ye Xiuying's family.

Wen Yufeng knew what she meant and pouted in dissatisfaction. "How do you know I can't get the money?"

"You? How do you get the money? Can you make medicine? I heard that your second aunt and her family are going to open a pharmacy to make donkey hide glue. Xiao Liu will be in charge of cleaning it for her, and she will pay 300 wen for each hide."

Zhang Sufen snorted coldly: "She won't do it for you no matter how much money she offers."

Boss Wen, who had been sitting nearby, interrupted, "What nonsense! The third brother told me a long time ago that the two women in her family wanted to open a medicine shop. They are thinking too simply. Can they sell it?"

Wen Yufeng sneered, "I heard that Wen Qingcheng couldn't continue working at Wang's and was forced to resign. As a village woman with no background, she naturally couldn't make it, but... I'm different."

Boss Wen and the others all looked over. Wen Yufeng's eyes were full of pride, as if she had won the game. "Mr. Qiu recently negotiated a deal in the capital city. It's a workshop that makes jade cream. When it's finished, they will directly use my brand."

Boss Wen frowned when he heard this, not understanding what she meant, "What's your brand?"

Zhang Sufen understood what her daughter meant instantly, and her eyes lit up. This Mr. Qiu was from the county town, and his family ran a silk and satin shop, so they had plenty of money. It was her daughter's good fortune to be able to hook up with such a good man.

"My girl, it's time for you to get lucky. I heard that many people selling rouge and powder now find workshops that do processing on behalf of others. After the products are made, they put their own brands on them, and ordinary people can't tell the difference at all." Zhang Sufen said.

Old Lady Wen and Old Man Wen looked at each other and said, "My dear granddaughter, you really have this way. If you create your own brand, you have to open a store. Can you sell it?"

Wen Yufeng said proudly, "With Master Qiu here, what's there to be afraid of? He has many connections. Besides, the jade cream made by that workshop is sold to us by the kilogram. When the time comes, we will put it in exquisite small porcelain jars. A small jar will definitely sell for several hundred coins."

Wen Yufeng was reluctant to deal with Mr. Qiu at first. She met him at a drinking party with Wang Heng and thought they were of the same kind. Later, she found that Mr. Qiu was handsome, elegant and modest. He was very respectful to her and even said that he wanted to marry her as his young mistress, tolerate her temper and hug her when she was angry...

Zhang Sufen's eyes showed joy: "Her father, maybe this is a good opportunity. I have never heard of the donkey skin glue that my second sister-in-law and her friends made. They said it can cure diseases, but I have never heard of donkey skin being able to cure any disease. Our jade face cream is different. It will sell well anyway."

Now, Boss Wen was relieved. "When will this thing be ready?"

"Mr. Qiu is still selecting products. I have to find the village head to stamp it in the next two days, and then go to the government to register it."

"What about the shop? Where is it?" asked Old Lady Wen.

"The first thing I want to open is a workshop. After the company in the city has finished processing, they will ship the Jade Face Cream to us in barrels. We will then package it in small jars and put our own logo on them. I have decided to call it Phoenix Jade Face Cream."

Boss Wen asked, "Where can we sell it? Isn't Mr. Qiu's family a silk and satin shop?"
