The dead general was kidnapped by his husband and taken to farm.
Chapter 88 Business, entanglement
The soap business is in full swing. Everyone who uses it says it is easy to use and much more convenient than soap powder and wild soapberries.
It looks like a small piece, and you can rub it into bubbles by rubbing it on the dirty cuffs and collar. It is much more cost-effective than soap powder, and many people would rather buy soap.
The soap business was so booming that it was known to all the shops, big and small, and to the men at home.
Rich families had their maids buy it and bring it back. Clothes washed with this soap had no strange smell. When exposed to the sun, they had only a fresh smell and were washed very cleanly.
As for the slightly poorer families, they usually use a mallet to wash clothes, and the clothes are not particularly clean. If they talk to the men at home about the benefits, if the men earn more money outside, they can also buy a few pieces of clothes to use.
Many people also bought it home to study, but no matter how they did it, the product either failed to solidify or failed to form foam. It can be said that this business was monopolized by Jiang Shian alone.
In addition to businessman Liu, merchants who had bought tooth powder and toothbrushes from him before also began to order soap. As a result, Jiang Shian was a little too busy.
The toothbrush and toothpowder business is now almost flat, and his focus is now on soap. It is not convenient for him and Ji Yinghuai to travel back and forth between the town and the village every day, so he hired a clerk for the shop in the town.
The shop keeps account books and books for the daily sales volume, and the shop assistants are men from poor families in the town.
After a few days of observation, the two of them felt that the other party was quite reliable, capable and not dishonest, so they kept him.
Jiang Shian offered him 15 wen a day, and the other party was very happy. He just said that he would work hard and live up to his trust.
This way, the shop would give them less to worry about. The demand for soap was high, and it was obviously too much for just a few children to help pick up shells.
The busy spring farming season has passed, and the autumn harvest is still a few months away. Many people in the village are thinking of going to the town to find work.
Country people went to the town to find work, the men did heavy work, such as moving things at the docks, while the wives and brothers could only embroider and take care of the fields at home.
Those who were good at embroidery could also embroider handbags and sell them for a few copper coins, but these things were sold more in the shops in the town, and the materials were better than theirs, and there were more embroidery patterns and styles, so if the country people wanted to sell them, they had to make them cheaper.
Jiang Shian thought about it and decided to invite the child's mother, who would help with the work in the future, to come home and do the work.
Boiling oil, burning and crushing shells are not hard work and are not difficult to do. Moreover, his prices are reasonable, so many people are willing to help.
A few years ago, some families had a lot of corn stalks piled up by the fields, enough to feed their livestock. These piles were of no use other than burning firewood.
Jiang Shian bought them all at a low price and piled them at the gate of the yard.
When there are more people, he doesn't need to cook anymore, as these aunts are good at cooking.
He just needs to add some dishes to the house.
The house and yard were both large, and the kitchen in Ji Yinghuai's wing was also lit, and oil was boiled every day.
In addition, there were many large and small items and utensils added to the home, so there were so many things that the two of them cleaned up a room specifically to put them in.
Now the house became lively, with a large table of people eating every day, and the production of soap also increased rapidly.
The small stall that was originally placed in front of the shop could no longer meet the needs of the crowd.
Jiang Shian decided to buy a bigger shop with a yard nearby. He would then set up a small workshop in the yard and sell whatever he made in the shop, saving the trouble of transporting things back and forth.
Ji Yinghuai has always supported his ideas. As soon as he finished speaking, the man took action and started to look after the shop.
The road section is good, and the shops with a lot of people are not cheap. If you buy directly, the minimum price is sixty taels. The price is nothing to Jiang Shi now, as he already has nearly eight hundred taels of silver in his hand.
He was also shocked when the show was over, and couldn't believe how he made so much money. Later, Ji Yinghuai smiled and calculated with him in detail. The merchants who placed orders with him sold about 600 taels of silver, and the remaining 100 taels was the profit of the shop, and the rest was the cost of the bamboo boxes and other expenses.
Jiang Shian was so happy that his eyes almost narrowed into slits, and his heart and eyes were filled with white silver ingots.
Ji Yinghuai pulled him to sit on his lap, and he was still bubbling with joy without even realizing it.
They looked at several shops, but they still couldn't find one that satisfied them in terms of layout or interior construction. They would probably have to go take a look again tomorrow. The sooner they decide, the sooner they can open the shop.
In the evening, the two had dinner in town before returning home.
After a day of running around, Jiang Shian was too tired to move.
Ji Yinghuai was driving outside, and he didn't have to worry about his image when sitting alone in the carriage. He just lay down in the carriage.
Originally he said he would think carefully and observe before deciding whether to be with Ji Yinghuai, but he had been so busy these past two days that he had no time to think about those things.
Fortunately, Ji Yinghuai did not urge him, and they continued to get along with each other as before, but his actions and words were more intimate and gentle.
Jiang Shian was a little embarrassed at first. He felt that if he didn't give any results, it didn't seem like he was really considering it, as if he was keeping someone hanging.
Ji Yinghuai saw through his thoughts and spoke first: "I am satisfied knowing that you don't hate me. This kind of thing can't be rushed. You are so busy every day, and I can't bear to force you. I feel sorry for you. Let's finish the things at hand first, and you can think about it slowly. I'm not in a hurry."
Recalling what Ji Yinghuai said to him the night before, Jiang Shian's mouth curled up.
I have to say that men are really considerate and gentle at times, and it really touches his heart to see you consider everything for him.
He actually already had the answer in his mind, but he still had some concerns before saying it out loud.
This was in ancient times, not the modern monogamy. Ji Yinghuai's identity was not simple. Judging from their current relationship, he might not have wives or concubines at home, but there was no guarantee that he would have this idea in the future.
Another point is that in this era, boys can have children. He is a modern man, to be frank, a 22-year-old male college student. But he is unwilling to do so and will not do so in the future.
If they were really together, he didn't know whether Ji Yinghuai could accept it.
Although they have been together for a few months, he doesn't know Ji Yinghuai very well. He doesn't know his family background at all. Liking someone can't be a meal, not to mention that he still has things to do. He not only has to consider himself, but also the things that his original body needs him to complete.
After much hesitation, Jiang Shian thought that he would sit down and have a good talk with Ji Yinghuai after the new shop opened and got on track.
Then we will have no regrets whether we are together or apart.
The carriage swayed to a stop, and Jiang Shian sat up, knowing that he had arrived at his home.
Ji Yinghuai's voice came from outside: "Shi'an, get off the car now."
