Starting from a thatched cottage, the farmer embarked on the road to wealth through imperial examina

On the carriage to the county town, Ye Changyan suddenly remembered that he had forgotten a very important thing, that is, the candies produced by this milk processing workshop and the cakes planned to be produced in the future must be given a nice name.

Ye Changyan took out several names of the font sizes he had drafted and showed them to Zhong Yunfeng. Zhong Yunfeng picked one out of the several alternative font sizes at a glance and pointed it to Ye Changyan.

"Coincidentally, this is also the one I like the most."

"Then we will call this milk processing plant 'Wei Hao Jia' from now on. It not only directly reflects the product itself, but also implies that it is for every better family."

Then, the two of them selected the most satisfactory one from the alternative pattern logos behind the "Wei Hao Jia" name. The pattern is simple and easy to remember. With a few simple strokes, it outlines the upturned corners of the mouth with a drop of saliva hanging at the corner of the mouth. This pattern logo also forms a good echo with the "Wei Hao Jia" name.

Soon, the carriage arrived at Yunfeng Tower. After Zhong Yunfeng gave some instructions to the shopkeeper Quan Youfang, he took the carriage to Yuzhou City, trying to arrive before Zhong Dingyi went to bed so that he could discuss the specific arrangements with his father and start the action early the next morning.

Ye Changyan went to the pottery shop. When the shop owner saw Ye Changyan, a big customer, coming, he hurriedly entertained him warmly.

Ye Changyan took out a list and said to the shop owner.

"Boss, this time I need fifty large wide-mouthed jars that can hold 100 jin, one hundred medium wide-mouthed jars that can hold 50 jin, twenty narrow-mouthed jars that can hold 100 jin, and fifty large pottery basins..."

When the boss heard Ye Changyan's long list of requirements, he was delighted. His workshop had never received such a large order before.

The boss looked at Ye Changyan with a smile on his face, and listened to what Ye Changyan continued to say.

"These large and small jars, pots and basins must strictly follow the proportion requirements and have the font size and corresponding pattern logo on the paper engraved in a conspicuous position. I don't know if it can be done."

After hearing Ye Changyan's request, the boss knew that this was a long-term deal, so he had to set a good example for the other party first. Thinking of this, the boss introduced himself to Ye Changyan with a smile.

"Brother, my name is Lai Chongde, and I am the owner of this pottery workshop. May I know your name?"

Lai Chongde, the owner of the pottery jar shop, wanted to build a good relationship with Ye Changyan. He knew that he should never go to such an important customer.

"My name is Ye Changyan. I am the third child in my family. You can just call me Sanlang."

Ye Changyan smiled at the other party, and saw Lai Chongde speaking to him with a bright smile on his face.

"Boss Ye, we guarantee that you will be satisfied with your requirements! I will close the shop door right now and go back to the workshop. I will have the workers work overnight and try to produce samples in three days. You can come to my workshop to inspect the goods on site. If there are any problems, we will correct them immediately. If there are no problems, we will start production right away. What do you think?"

Hearing the other party calling him boss, Ye Changyan felt a little amused, so he also said to the other party with a smile.

"Boss Lai, I'm just an errand boy. You can call me Sanlang or Xiaoye from now on, but you can't call me boss anymore."

Hearing Ye Changyan emphasize this title, Lai Chongde nodded repeatedly, and then listened to Ye Changyan continue.

"Then I will come to the shop again in three days, and you can take me to see the samples."

Lai Chongde nodded repeatedly, then stood up to pick up the door and prepare to close the business.

"Boss Lai, do you know where there is a relatively large glass workshop in Wanshou County?"

When Lai Chongde heard Ye Changyan's question, he thought about it for a moment and then continued to carry the door panel while speaking.

"The clay in Wanshou County is good, but there is not much ore for making glass, and it contains a lot of impurities. Therefore, there are only two small family workshops making glass in Wanshou County, and the glass produced by these two workshops is of relatively poor quality."

Lai Chongde fastened the last door panel, locked the door from the outside, and then continued.

"As far as I know, the best glass in Yuzhou Prefecture is basically made in Yashan County. The ore there is of good quality and has many deposits. If you need better quality glass products, I suggest you buy those from Yashan County."

The distance between Yashan County and Wanshou County is not too close. Yashan County is located on the border of Yuzhou Prefecture, close to Yizhou Prefecture. It takes about half a day to get there by horse carriage.

"Then Mr. Lai, do you know that there is a shop opened by the glass workshop in Yashan County in this county?"

Ye Changyan planned to see if there was such a shop in the county, first to see the quality of their glass, and then decide whether he needed to make a trip to Yashan County.

"Yes, there is one near the city gate. Come on, I'll take you there on my way."

As he spoke, Lai Chongde took Ye Changyan to a glass shop. Then Lai Chongde said goodbye to Ye Changyan and hurried back to his own workshop.

There was only one clerk in the glass shop. He told Ye Changyan to look around while he was busy with his work.

Ye Changyan picked up various glassware in the shop and examined them carefully. He found that the quality of the glassware in this shop was quite good. Although it could not be compared with that in his previous life, it was indeed much better than the glassware he had seen in other places. At this moment, a convoy of ox carts stopped in front of the shop.

"Zhang Quan, the goods have arrived, come out and unload them."

Hearing someone shouting outside, the shop assistants quickly put down what they were doing and ran out.

"Young master's family."

Ye Changyan listened to the waiter and called a young man next to the ox cart "Young Master". Ye Changyan was delighted and took the initiative to step forward and explain his purpose.

"We can make jars like this, but the wooden lid is specially made by someone, so we just go and get it directly."

The young man, who was called the young master by the waiter, learned the purpose of Ye Changyan's visit. He took the drawings from Ye Changyan's hand, looked at them carefully, and answered directly.

"If I want to engrave this font and pattern on the jar, can you do it?"

Ye Changyan took out another piece of paper and asked the young man.

"You can engrave it, but it has to be custom-made. If it's custom-made, we usually have requirements, at least fifty pieces. After we make it, the goods will be brought to the shop by car, and you have to pick it up yourself. Can you order so many?"

The young man was directing the porters who were unloading the goods while speaking to Ye Changyan.

"We need 2,000 of this and this specification, and 3,000 of this specification. We will temporarily order 1,000 of this specification."

Ye Changyan pointed to the four types of jars on the drawing and stated his needs. A young man who was stretching out his hand and busy directing the porters heard the number reported by Ye Changyan. He doubted his ears, turned around suddenly, and stared at Ye Changyan intently.
