There is Room For the Poor Daughter

In March, hundreds of flowers were in full bloom, and when the rice flowers were seen, the manager of Zhuangzi, who specialized in planting flowers, sent a lot of flowers one after another, and then he developed perfume in the yard.

"Girl, the steward of Liulipu brought the bottle you asked for."

Wang Man'er and Bi Shi each came back with a box of transparent glass bottles.

When deciding to make perfume, Daohua asked people to go to Liulipu and set up a hundred perfume bottles.

Nowadays, the craftsmanship of Liulichang for making glass is very superb. The shape of the perfume bottle produced is not too different from the pattern she gave in the past, and each is small and delicate.

Looking at the rose perfume extracted from the table, Wang Man'er took a deep breath, and said intoxicated, "It's really fragrant!"

Gu Yu nodded at the side: "The fragrance is really fragrant, but the amount is too small. It is estimated that a large basket of roses can hold two or three bottles."

Wang Man'er: "So the price of this perfume is high."

Daohua sat on the side and sorted out the production process, ready to write down every step in detail, and then find someone to follow the instructions in Huazhuangzi.

"You put the perfume in the bottle, remember, don't overfill it, just three-quarters full."

Until mid-March, several kinds of flower perfumes were produced and placed in the rouge shop for sale.

The rouge shop under the name of Daohua has always been doing well. As soon as the perfume came out, it attracted the attention of frequent visitors. Under the display of the shop steward, one hundred bottles of perfume were sold out within a few days.

The steward excitedly came to report with the ledger. After Daohua read it, he was silent for a while, and someone called Yan Shouhou, who was working in place of Qin Xiaoliu.

Yan Shouhou is the son of Mrs. Wei, the kitchen steward. Daohua has been in charge of the kitchen for the past two years. Mrs. Wei is also brought up by her, and Yan Shouhou can be regarded as her person.

"Girl, are you looking for me?"

Different from Qin Xiaoliu's cleverness and flexibility, Strict Shouhou, as his name suggests, is honest and loyal.

If the shop and the farm had just started operation, she would definitely not have used such a person, but now that the rules of the shop and each village have been set, then such a person is the best person to manage.

Daohua: "Last year Xiaoliu brought a group of people to Taohua Village. Do you know those people?"

Yan Shouhou hurriedly nodded: "Little one knows, Little Sixth Brother specially told me about their situation."

Daohua nodded: "Now those people have been arranged at Mai Zhuang. Tomorrow, you can go there and pick seven or eight quick-handed women from among those people and bring them to Hua Zhuangzi in Xingzhou."

Saying that, he handed him the flow chart for making perfume.

Yan Shouhou glanced at the perfume flow chart, and hesitated.

Daohua smiled and said, "If you have something to say, just say it."

Yan Shouhou immediately replied: "Girl, Little Sixth Brother said that those people still need to be observed. Although they are still doing their part in the past two or three months, will it be too much to tell them the secret of making perfume?"

Daohua took over: "Too sloppy?" After speaking, she smiled, "Don't worry, their deeds are all in my hands, and they can only live with me."

Yan Shouhou sneered: "It's a little too much to worry about."

Daohua said: "Your concerns are right, now you help me manage the shop and Zhuangzi, you should think more about people and troubles, come to me if you are not sure, don't hide it in your heart ."

"These are a lot of things. In the beginning, they were just trivial matters, but if they were not resolved at first, they would become like a snowball that would grow bigger and bigger, and eventually become a major disaster."

Yan Shouhou hurriedly said, "You must keep it in mind when you are young."

Daohua smiled and nodded.

Mai Zhuang.

This is the largest village in Daohua's hands, with an area of ​​10,000 mu.

At this moment, the spring ploughing of the ten thousand acres of land has been completed, and the people in Zhuangzi are sitting on the ridge gossip in twos and threes, and some of them are particularly eye-catching.

Without him, these people are all tall men, one of them is blind in one eye, and the other is bald, so it's not easy to mess with.

"Brother Cao, do you think that girl from the Yan family really treats us as farmers?" The bald head rubbed his head.

Cao Gu squinted at him: "I'll let you work in the village with peace of mind, are you still not happy?"

The bald head shook his head: "It's not that I'm unhappy, I just feel a little... I can't believe it. Build us a house, and we will receive grain in the future, and we will divide our grain according to the number of acres we cultivate, and the monthly output of the village. I will also give out 10% to give us an equal share, this treatment is too good, it always makes me feel a little uneasy."

Cao Gu glanced at the people elsewhere, his eyes faint: "What's so unreliable, this treatment is not just for us."

In fact, at the beginning, he also felt that he couldn't believe it. Other Zhuangzi only had to make sure that the people in the village would not starve to death. How could it be like this.

But those people in Peach Blossom Village can't be fake, their stretched smiles and their prosperous lives all show that the Yan family's treatment is really so good.

Zhuzi interjected: "Master Yan is a good official, and his daughter is naturally not far behind."

Cao Gu didn't speak, he didn't dare to underestimate the big girl of the Yan family.

That aunt, by herself, brought down a large number of killers trained by the Eighth Prince.

Also, why did the court people find Sishan Village?

He wouldn't believe it at all if it was said that there was no credit from the eldest girl of the Yan family.

At this moment, someone ran over panting: "Brother Cao, brother bald, go back and have a look, where is Yan Guanshi at your house?"

Cao Gu and the bald ones immediately stood up and asked as they walked, "Which one is in charge of affairs?"

The person who came: "It's the Yan Guanshi who took over Qin's work."

Hearing this, the speed of Cao Gu's feet became faster and faster.

When the few people returned to the residential area, they saw Yan Shouhou gathered the daughters-in-law of several of their households in the courtyard of Zhuangtou and asked them to pick beans.

Yan Shouhou walked back and forth by the side, observing whether the women's clothes were clean, whether their fingers were clean, and the speed of the work on their hands.

Making perfume is a delicate job, and one has to choose carefully.

This was the first task the girl gave him, and he didn't dare to be careless.

He knew that in terms of ability and weight in the girl's heart, he couldn't compare with the little brother at all, and no one knew how to be flexible, but the mother told him that everyone has their own specialties, he There is no need to compete with Qin Xiaoliu, since the girl chose him, all he can do now is to work hard to complete everything that the good girl explained.

Seeing that Cao Gu had arrived, Yan Shouhou glanced at it and continued to watch the women picking beans.

The bald head hesitated for a while, but finally he couldn't hold back and walked over. There was no way, that Yan Guanshi was always staring at her daughter-in-law, which made him annoyed.

"Strictly managing things, why did you call me and Brother Cao's daughter-in-law over?"

Yan Shouhou didn't even think about asking them to trouble them, but he didn't want to explain too much: "It's a good thing, the girl has to choose a few women to do her work." I didn't say anything else.

The bald head immediately looked at Cao Gu.

Cao Gu was silent for a while, then glanced at the pillar beside him.

When Zhuzi received it, he immediately took out a small piece of broken silver from his body, walked to Yan Shouhou's side, and asked in a low voice while giving the broken silver, "Strictly manage things, be accommodating, what does the girl want our daughter-in-law to do? what?"

Yan Shouhou pushed aside Zhuzi's hand to hand over the silver, and said with some dissatisfaction: "What are you doing, don't you know the rule that the steward is strictly forbidden to accept bribes?"

When the pillar choked, he knew this rule, but he felt that few stewards could do it.

Seeing that Cao Gu and several others looked worried, Yan Shouhou was silent for a while, and after thinking about it, he still said: "It's a good thing, the girl's rouge shop is short of people, and you need a few skillful people to make rouge."

As soon as these words came out, some women onlookers immediately came over: "Strictly managing things, are you really going to work in the girl's rouge shop? They don't want to go, we do."

Yan Shouhou reassured: "There are enough people now, wait for the next time. Next time, if there is a shortage of people, I will come and choose." After saying this, he immediately pointed to a few neat women.

"Go back and say goodbye to your family, and leave with me later."

The bald-headed daughter-in-law blurted out, "So fast?"

Yan Shouhou explained: "The business of the rouge shop is very good, and many of the goods have been bought out. We urgently need you to come."

Cao Gu stepped forward and took his daughter-in-law's hand, and walked out of the yard in silence.

The bald ones quickly followed.

The bald head was still a little uneasy: "Brother Cao, do you think it's okay for the sisters-in-law to go to the rouge shop to work?"

Cao Gu was silent for a while: "It shouldn't be a problem, but" Miss Yan was afraid that she still didn't believe them and wanted to separate them from her family. Lan Niang and the others were also considered hostages.
