Otherworldly Days

Cao Xiangnan first told the two boys the things to pay attention to, and tidied up the room inside according to his requirements, lest the seedlings he planted with great difficulty in one night die, and he would not even cry Nowhere to cry.

The rest will have to wait for someone to build a shed tomorrow to provide a suitable environment for these seedlings to grow.

"Remember it?"

"take note of it."

"If you don't understand, you must ask. I will try my best to teach you what I know." Cao Xiangnan was only responsible for teaching the two boys, and the two boys were also smart. When he said something, the two boys Understood.

As for the arrangement of shopkeeper Fang here, it is up to shopkeeper Fang, but seeing the way shopkeeper Fang saw the money, Cao Xiangnan knew that these mushrooms would definitely make a lot of money.

Now Fang Ziye's salary here is not low, and the more Yipinzhai earns, the more he can share, so he doesn't have any idea of ​​hiding anything.He has taught people as much as possible, and when the time comes, money will make money, and he will just sit back and wait for the dividends.

Knowing from Shopkeeper Fang that he didn't come back to Nanyang so soon, Young Master Shen sent people to Yipinzhai to look for him several times.Now that he was back, Cao Xiangnan also borrowed someone from Shopkeeper Fang to go to the Shen Mansion to inform Shen Zhengyang.

It was getting dark outside very quickly, unexpectedly he sent someone to deliver the message, and then Shen Zhengyang brought someone to Yipinzhai to look for him.

"Zhengyang, why are you here?" Cao Xiangnan asked in surprise when he saw Young Master Shen coming.

"Hmph, I thought you didn't plan to come to Nanyang when you returned home." Young Master Shen waited for several days and no one came over. A lot of things from the craftsmen's place had been sold, so he waited. People came to open the business, but there was no one there.

He is the young master of the Shen family, but he has very few friends who can speak the local language, and now he finally made a friend who can be called a friend, and he ran away within a few days of getting acquainted.To put it bluntly, Young Master Shen was not happy that he had such no status in the hearts of his friends. It is a pity that Cao Xiangnan didn't know that Young Master Shen was so awkward. He was quite happy to see people coming, and asked the craftsmen where How are you doing.

It's getting dark now, and the supper stall is also open for business.Last time they ate barbecue here, Cao Xiangnan simply took Young Master Shen over there, so that he could go and see how the arrangement was going there.

Now that it is autumn, it is the time for nourishment. The night snack stall has started to make mutton hot pot.When he left last time, this place was just making preparations. This time, hot pot has already been cooked here, so Cao Xiangnan brought people over to eat hot pot.

Fresh mutton is cut and sold right away, and you can buy whatever parts you like. The soup base in the pot is boiled first, and the mutton bought by customers is boiled in the pot, and the boiled mutton is delivered to the customer's place.There is a charcoal fire under the stove on the table, and the boiled soup is brought over and continues to simmer. There are also a lot of vegetarian and meat pasta on the list, so you can order what you like.

"You sit here for a while, I'll let someone cut the mutton and cook it." Cao Xiangnan took Young Master Shen to sit down first, and he went over to order the mutton so that someone could cook it first.

Not long after it opened, quite a few customers have already come to eat. The price of the food here is on the civilian route, and most of the people who come to eat are ordinary men.People here in Nanyang have some money, and they are willing to go out to eat a delicious spicy food.

When Steward Zhou saw the little boss coming, he warmly greeted him. Cao Xiangnan pointed over there and said that there were still friends here.After the meat was cut and cooked first, Cao Xiangnan went back.

"How do you feel here?" Cao Xiangnan asked when he came back and saw Young Master Shen sitting here looking around.

"You seem to be very familiar with this place." When did Young Master Shen come to this kind of place? When he saw that the people sitting here eating were all thick and thick men, and there were also brothers and children coming together, and there was a lot of noise in the shed. , he found it very novel, but he also noticed that Cao Xiangnan was standing there talking to a person who seemed to be in charge.

Cao Xiangnan gave a "guess" expression on his face and sat down in his seat.

Not long after, the charcoal stove was put on, and the hot soup was brought over neatly by a waiter, and the vegetarian dishes ordered were also put on the table one by one.As soon as the pot was brought up, the aroma wafted out. Naturally, Cao Xiangnan was serving young master Shen to eat, and filled him with a bowl of soup, saying, "Come on, have a sip, this soup contains a lot of seasonings, very nourishing." physical."

"..." Shen Zhengyang glanced at Cao Xiangnan suspiciously. Smelling the taste was not bad, he picked up a spoon and took a sip of the soup. After drinking it, it tasted sweet and didn't have the smell of mutton. He sincerely said Said, "It's delicious."

"That's right, I didn't lie to you." The person who was speaking hadn't even had a drink yet, so Cao Xiangnan took a sip of the soup, thinking that the soup was quite good.

The two of them piled up a meal of mutton hot pot, which made their stomachs round. By the way, they also decided on tomorrow's affairs.After supper, Shen's carriage came to take Shen Zhengyang back, while Cao Xiangnan stayed here.

"Is this your shop?" Shen Zhengyang asked Cao Xiangnan as he got into the carriage.

"No, it just took a little bit of points. Didn't you say that I'm a cook?" Cao Xiangnan blinked elegantly, and sent him to the carriage.

Cao Xiangnan planned to come to Nanyang this time, and the next time he came, he had to wait for the beginning of spring next year, so this time he had to arrange things here as soon as possible, and he rushed home.After he returns home this time, the baby in Wanfeng's stomach will be born soon, and he won't have time to go out by then, and it won't be convenient for him to travel long distances when it snows in winter.

So when he came to Nanyang, he didn't stop and ran a few times. Luckily, Guanshi Zhou was safe in handling his affairs, and he didn't need to worry too much here. He could take care of everything that Guanshi ordered him to do here.

Early the next morning, I made an appointment with Shen Zhengyang early to see how the craftsmen made things.

Seeing that the blueprints I drew have been turned into finished products, I feel an indescribable sense of pride in my heart. Needless to say, the craftsmanship of the craftsmen of this era, most of these things are made of wood, Cao Xiangnan looked at After a few samples, they were all very satisfied, and sincerely praised a few words, "Well, very good."

"It goes without saying that the things made by the masters in my hands are naturally the best." It was as if he himself had been praised, and Young Master Shen was very happy.

"Yes, the best." Cao Xiangnan agreed.

There are indeed some masters who made a few new gadgets, and the stewards in charge recorded them one by one. After everyone evaluates them, the level is judged, and there will be corresponding bonuses. Take an extra tael.Although the money is not much, it also greatly promotes everyone's enthusiasm. You must know that the higher the level of evaluation, the richer the bonus will be.

After listening to Cao Xiangnan, he felt that this was just right, and this was exactly his original purpose, but it was not enough now, and could not meet his desired requirements.This is just the beginning, and it will get better and better in the future.

The location of the store is on the main street, and there are many people passing by on the street.The pavement here has been renovated, and a lot of thought has been spent here. The interior layout is exquisite and unique, and it is designed to please brothers and children.

Even in this world, Cao Xiangnan believed that the brother and the child's money was the best to earn.

Only two days after the opening, the place will officially open.

The opening of the business will be arranged by Shen Zhengyang's stewards, and they will just show up when the time comes.

"Okay, I'll be here on time the next morning." They came over here to have a look, and agreed with Shen Zhengyang and Qu Guan about the opening of the business. Cao Xiangnan also put forward his thoughts and opinions, which was affirmed by the two of them. .

Cao Xiangnan came here this time and brought a lot of clothes, some of which were sold by shopkeeper Jiang, and the rest he planned to sell in the new shop opened two days later, and he was afraid that there would not be enough clothes to sell.

This time he brought a batch of down jackets, but not many.Compared with cotton-padded clothes, these clothes are made of better material, thinner and warmer. Shopkeeper Jiang couldn't put it down when he touched them, and wanted to eat them all.

"Hey, it's not going to work, I have to save some to sell in the new store." Cao Xiangnan didn't want to give it, but there are not so many, this year's raw materials are particularly limited, and there are not so many, he expressed that he will increase the quantity next year Come up, when the time comes, give some more to Shopkeeper Jiang.

"Okay, okay, you have to keep your word, kid. I'm just waiting for your clothes." Now that the two of them are getting acquainted, they don't come and go like they did in the beginning, and shopkeeper Jiang doesn't talk to this kid either. You're welcome.

He heard that shopkeeper Fang got a lot of good things, but compared with him, he finally got a good thing, but there are so few.Shopkeeper Jiang is starting to have a headache now, if there is not enough to sell by then, how will he explain to some wives in your mansion.

"It's only starting this year. Let's make a good start. If you don't have what you want this year, you can make an order for next year. Whoever gets it soon will get it. Then you can send the order to Shopkeeper Fang, and Shopkeeper Fang will arrange for someone to deliver it to you." Give it to me in the past." Cao Xiangnan found that he was becoming more and more of a profiteer, and he hadn't started doing business this year, so he started to make plans for next year.

But this abacus can still be played?

"Uh... this is also a good way." Shopkeeper Jiang's eyes lit up, and he wouldn't be dissatisfied if he didn't buy it by then. Ah, up to ten pieces, if you ground too much, you won't be able to take it out, but it's not a joke." Cao Xiangnan had to remind.

"This is also the case. Fortunately, you reminded me." Shopkeeper Jiang nodded, thinking it made sense.

Shopkeeper Jiang had agreed to arrange for two good embroiderers to go to Fenshui. Cao Xiangnan is now looking for shopkeeper Jiang’s important person. It just so happened that Wu Yue and Sun Hongmei should go home. He didn’t forget The husband and the child are both at home, so it's not good for him to get him out for too long.

After discussing with Shopkeeper Jiang, Cao Xiangnan notified Wu Yue and Sun Hongmei that they were going home, and took the two Ah Mos to the garment workshop by the way. He had already explained the matter to Li Mei before coming.

The two aunts went over to give some guidance, and they wanted to rush back to Nanyang before winter.

The next day a boat passed by Fenshui, Wu Yue and Sun Hongmei boarded the boat with two Ah Mos and headed back to Fenshui.
