Chapter 204: Keep doing it
It takes about ten days for soap to solidify and be shipped out. If there is a small amount now, it is easy to remember. If there is a lot, it will be difficult to distinguish. So every time it is made, it is placed on the shelf and a record card is written on it, so that it is convenient for shipping out later. "Goudan said.
Qi Xingyun and Zheng Huaming felt that what they said was very right. It takes some time for soap to be produced and shipped out. It’s okay if there is a small amount now, but when it is officially put into production, the quantity will definitely not be as small as it is now. It is estimated that it will be more than ten or eight times of today’s quantity.
"Okay, let's record it down. When we finish one by one, do you have any suggestions?"
“I haven’t thought of anything else yet.”
At this time, the person who went to prepare the place to store the soap came over to report, "The room is ready, it's in this yard, and the shelves are also being prepared. It's estimated that it will be completed in the afternoon."
"So do you want to wait until the shelf is finished or continue working on it now?" Zheng Huaming asked Goudan and the other man.
"Keep going. The mixture has been mixed. We can't wait too long. Pour it out soon, otherwise it will solidify in the pot and affect the subsequent production." After Tietou finished speaking, the two of them returned to the stove and poured the mixture into the molds prepared in advance. The surface of each mold was smoothed.
Then have someone take it back to the room where it is stored.
Goudan and the other man also followed him into the house and looked around. They found that wealthy families do things quickly. In just a short while, everything was arranged properly, so there was nothing that needed their reminders.
I watched as they put away the original soap and went back to the soap-making place to continue making the bamboo-flavored soap.
"This time we are going to add bamboo leaf water, so we need to be more careful than when we divide the three ingredients."
Everyone was busy again. Although there was strength in numbers, it was already past lunch time when the two soaps were finished. Qi Xingyun and Zheng Huaming were also waiting here. They didn't get up until the last mold was moved to the storage room. They said to Goudan and the others, "It's past lunch time. Let's go eat first. We can talk later if you have anything else."
They walked to the dining room together. Goudan and Tietou had eaten at the same table with Zheng Huaming and Qi Xingyun before, so they didn't feel awkward eating together again.
After a simple meal, Qi Xingyun saw the things they had placed next to them when they came in the morning, and couldn't help but remind them, pointing at the things and saying, "What did you bring this morning? I thought you would use it when making soap, but now you've finished making it and the things are still here. Did you forget?"
"Oh, Mr. Qi, these two are the soaps I brought from home." Tietou said as he stood up to take the things, opened them and put them on the table.
Qi Xingyun and Zheng Huaming were very happy when they heard that they brought the soap they had made before.
One is light yellow, the other is light green, and you can smell a faint scent of bamboo. This should be what they call one is the original flavor and the other is the bamboo flavor.
The elegant scent of bamboo is just as Sanmao said, and scholars will like it.
"The color we just made seems to be lighter than these two." Zheng Huaming said.
"Yes, the color was the same when I made it at home. Sister Xiaocaoer said that the color of the soap might get a little darker during the solidification process. This should be fine."
"That's good. Is there anything else we should pay attention to?" Zheng Huaming asked Goudan. He was afraid that the two of them would be like the Yang family. They would only say one thing when asked. If you don't ask me, I won't tell you anything. If you ask me, I can tell you a lot.
"It's nothing, these are all I did that day." Tietou said truthfully. There really was nothing left. The original should still be there, it wasn't stopped before he had time to learn it.
"Okay, starting tomorrow, let them continue doing it a few times so that they can get familiar with the feeling. If there are any problems, I will message you and you can find time to teach them." Qi Xingyun saw that today's work was completed, and he didn't know whether the people who were following him to learn had learned it.
"Okay, if you need our materials, just send someone to deliver a message. When making them, you can use a slightly smaller amount each time to avoid waste." Tietou suggested.
"Yes, your suggestion is good." Zheng Huaming agreed with him.
The day before yesterday, Goudan and Tietou knew that they could no longer make soap with Xiaocaoer, but only for a moment, because Xiaocaoer had given them another way to make a living. Even if Xiaocaoer hadn't given them the recipe for salted and preserved eggs, they wouldn't have made them themselves without cooperating with Xiaocaoer's family.
Moreover, the two families are where they are today, all thanks to Xiaocao'er's family. If they hadn't suggested to Qi Dong's family that they teach the people in the village to grow sweet potatoes, and let Grandpa and his family help to tidy up the land, their family wouldn't have had the money to participate in the furniture workshop's capital raising, and now they get a lot of dividends every year. At that time, many people didn't believe that the furniture workshop could make money and didn't participate in the capital raising, but now these people are very jealous.
Another major reason is that the business of preserved eggs and salted eggs may be more suitable for families like theirs.
It is obvious that soaps are not something that ordinary people can make. Farmers have experience in raising chickens and ducks. Compared with soap, more people will believe that the new things made with chicken and duck eggs are made by themselves. Although the recipe is not their own, they have to make it by themselves and have tested it with their own hands.
Goudan and his partner returned to Qingshan Village after finishing their work at Qi Xingyun's place. They agreed that if there were any problems, they would receive a letter and they could go back to have a look when they had time. Qi Xingyun asked someone to prepare a few boxes of cakes for them to take back.
Time went on, and soon it was the day when the Mao family returned to the mansion. The servant hadn't bought anyone yet, and Sanmao said that the dental shop in the county was too small and there were not many people to choose from, so he simply went back to the capital to buy.
Besides, there were a lot of things to bring back to the capital this time, and if there were a few more people, they would need an extra carriage. After discussing it, the two families felt that Sanmao was right. The county town was so small, how many people could be chosen from the pawnshop? The capital was different, the place was large and there were many people, so there might be more than one pawnshop, and there must be many people to choose from.
In this way, in addition to bringing some extra books and clothes, the most thing they brought was food prepared by the two families.
Simao didn't take the group of friends with him in the end. The day after Li's outburst, the friends went to the martial arts training. Simao told them two plans. "One is to go to the capital with them now, and then come back with Qi Xingyun and his caravan. The other plan is to wait until they grow up a little bit. Which plan do you think is better?"
