At the second moment of Shen Shi, Ding Jian went out and, with excitement, went to the gate of Qu Liehu's house first, and invited him to go to his house for wine at the third moment of You Shi, and discuss something.

The two of them fled from the northwest together and had experiences of sharing weal and woe. Naturally, they were closer to each other than those around them. Qu Liehuo agreed without thinking.

Then Ding Jian went to Uncle Lin Liu's house again.

Uncle Six, whose hair and beard had already begun to appear, was beating and beating a semi-finished wooden bench in the yard.

"Uncle Six!" Ding Jian shouted at the gate.

Uncle Lin Liu looked up and stopped his work: "It's Dalang, is there anything wrong with coming to find the old man?"

Ding Jian entered the yard, looked at the stool of Uncle Six's men, and said, "Look at what you said, I can't come to see you if it's okay?"

Uncle Six sneered and said, "You little brat! If you have something to do, just say it, just be tedious and learn what those women do!"

Ding Jian quickly raised his thumbs up and smiled apologized: "Uncle Six, you are this. I'm really worried about it this time, but it's not for you, but for your grandfather!"

Uncle Six said, "That's a coincidence. Dazhuang is not here. Today, the eldest son and the third brother went out with the fishing net early in the morning and didn't even come back to have lunch."

Ding Jian said, "Oh, I've been out for so long, so it seems that Da Zhuang and the others have gained a lot today. Uncle Six, when Da Zhuang comes back, you tell him and ask him to come to my house for a drink in the evening. I have something to discuss with him."

"As soon as I agreed, Uncle Six's face suddenly changed, staring at Ding Jian with a stern face, and changed his voice: "You kid, I don't know how to honor your Uncle Six after buying wine. I'll invite that brat to drink, and I'm not afraid of being ruined!"

Ding Jian smiled: "My wife is urging me tightly. I'm not anxious to bring you. Don't worry, Uncle Six, I'll ask Dazhuang to bring you two pounds back tonight."

Uncle Six then smiled: "That's the case! Okay, I'll let him go to your house to find you later."

After thinking about it, Ding Jian went to call Yongyuan and Yongjin again, and then he went home.

During dinner, Wei Yun and Xiao Wei gave the main hall to Ding Jian and Qu Liehuo and the other six big men. Xiao Wei also took out a jar of two kilograms of distilled liquor from the warehouse.

Each person can get a little more than three ounces of pounds. This amount is enough for men who have never drunk strong alcohol. If they have more, they should get drunk.

Today is not drinking or going to get drunk, but to discuss the sale of soap with them.

I made three braised cold dishes, all of which were meat dishes, three vegetarian dishes, and the portions of the three meat dishes were all sufficient, so I could add them after eating them.

Several people also knew that the Wei family was living much better than before, but they didn't expect that it would be better. It would be nice for ordinary families to have a meat dish at home.

Some people don’t even see meat and fish in the end of a year.

There were six palm-sized wine bowls on the table, and the red cloth plug at the mouth of the jar was opened. Ding Jian picked up the jar and poured it all over the bowl. The smell of wine filled the entire main hall, stimulating everyone's nose.

"Brother Ding, what kind of wine is this? Why is it so fragrant?"

"I'm almost drunk just by smelling this fragrance!"

The curiosity of several people was aroused.

Ding Jian held up the wine bowl with his hands and said, "This wine is called Rice Flower Wine, also known as Erguotou. This is a brewing method that has been passed down from Tokyo City. It is full of wine!"

Erguotou, as the name suggests, is the middle part of the distilled wine.

Of course, Wei Yun got the name casually, and he missed his past life and thoughts.

"Erguotou? This name sounds so strange? Or is it better to have rice wine?" Lin Yongjin muttered.

Ding Jian said: "Come on, let's drink one!"

"Come on! Drink!"

Several people carefully picked up the wine bowls, but did not clink the glasses. The wine was made of grain and was a precious thing, so how could it be wasted?

If you clink glasses, what should you do if you spill them? The scenes where you clink glasses in TV movies spill one-third of them, and help you share half of the clothes while drinking will probably only appear in the movies.

Qu Liehuo and Lin Dazhuang were drinking more cautiously, but Yongyuan Yongjin and Xu Laosan were drinking a little anxiously, and then they were choked by the fierce alcohol.

I quickly put down the bowl carefully, covered my mouth, turned my body and coughed, and tears were almost choking.

Only then did they understand what Ding Jian said just now is a great method of drinking.

Xu Laosan's dark cheeks turned red, "Brother Ding Jian, your Erguotou is so powerful!"

Ding Jian smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you a long time ago!"

The six people drank nearly half an hour, and the amount of two pounds was 2 pounds. Each of them was a little drunk, and they were just drunk.

After drinking and eating, Ding Jian did not continue to argue, but said directly: "I came here this time, first to let you taste this Erguotou, second, I have a profitable deal here, and I want to discuss it with my brothers."

"Brother Ding, if you have anything to do, you will never refuse if we can help."

"Yes, yes, Brother Ding, just say it directly. What can be used to make us? We have no other words."

Lin Dazhuang also said: "What Yongyuan said is, Brother Ding, just say that we have money to contribute money and strength to contribute."

Qu Liewo also said: "I said Dalang, why are you still so disgusting with us?"

Several people were drinking happily, and even their voices were much louder than usual.

Ding Jian smiled and said, "It's mine, it's not, so I'll just say it. Here is a thing I made from home. I want to hand it over to my brothers to sell it to the city. As for the wages, we will calculate it at ten cents a day, and there will be commissions when selling the things! What do you think of the brothers!"

Qu Liehuo hurriedly said, "Old Ding, you're just selling something, isn't it? You ask us for help, we can't ask for anything, and we're talking about wages!"

Lin Dazhuang echoed: "That's right, Brother Ding, everyone is from the villagers..."

Ding Jian reached out to interrupt the people and said, "I know the feelings of the brothers, and I am very grateful, but this matter is not a day or two, but a long-term business.

To be honest, my wife found a recipe from my father-in-law's relics. The fragrant glutinous rice we made according to the recipe. Our family called it soap, which is much more useful than the fragrant glutinous rice sold outside. Now Brother Yun is going to study and take the exam. I don't know how much money we will spend in the future.

So my wife and I discussed it, selling this soap, adding some input to the family, and providing Yun Ge'er with science and technology, so that he could fulfill my father-in-law's last wish in the future and shine the lintel of the Wei family.

Our Wei Ding family was a small family, so I remembered all the brothers. My wife and I discussed it. In addition to the ten cents of wages a day, every time a piece of soap is sold, I will give you a commission of one cent.

Moreover, everyone's lives are not rich. If it is one day or two, it's okay, but over time, many of the work at home will be impossible. This is equivalent to the fact that everyone's home has lost a single strong laborer.

As the saying goes, brothers all settle the score clearly. You are responsible for doing your work and selling around the streets. How can our Wei family not pay wages? It is unreasonable even if you put it anywhere!

If you still recognize me, Ding Jian, then please don’t refuse!” Let’s say that, Ding Jian clasped his fists at everyone.

Several people looked at each other and nodded.

If you sell one yuan and give it a penny, it means that the more you sell it, the more you get, plus ten cents a day.

The few people seemed to be about to be knocked out by this sudden happiness.

The knowledgeable and capable Qu Liewo, who was the first to react and asked, "What do you mean is to let us learn from the peddlers, picking up soap and walking around the streets and alleys?"

Ding Jian said: "Brother Qu is right, so at the beginning, everyone needs to work harder to start the name of soap. When the business starts, everyone's income will naturally become higher and higher."

As he spoke, the original drunkenness of the five people was almost dispersed. Then, Ding Jian took a few people to the yard to experience the effect of soap personally.

He directly received the recognition of the five people, and Ding Jian followed the trend and proposed that if he wanted to sell soap, he would also need to let them sign a contract document with the Wei family.

Naturally, all the people agreed. On the one hand, they were attracted by the huge profits they might have, and on the other hand, they were out of their trust in Ding Jian.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Yun appeared and wrote two deeds in front of the five of them. The five of them pressed their handprints on the deeds, in duplicates, and the deeds of the five of them were handed over to the most prestigious Lin Dazhuang.

The two sides agreed that early tomorrow morning, five people would come to Wei's house to pick up the goods, and no one would have 60 yuan for a total of 300 yuan, and they would go to Yangzhou City to hawk, and then the next pickup volume would increase or decrease according to their purchase on the first day.

At night, the lights have gone out. The unique frogs in the countryside are chirping. In the quiet late night, a unique rural concerto is played.

Wei Yun lay on the bed, watching the moonlight shine on the windowsill, penetrated the thin layer of window paper and reflected into the house.

For a moment, I didn't feel sleepy.

Now that the soap business has begun to be prepared, Wei Yun estimated that it would take about three to five days to become famous in Yangzhou. At that time, the sound of soap will definitely usher in a qualitative leap.

But soap is not a disposable consumable. If you save it, you should be able to use it for more than half a month.

Therefore, after the soap business rises to a certain level, it will begin to decline. However, at this time, if the channels in several counties below Yangzhou can be opened, sales should increase several times.

Now there are about 5,000 pieces of soap stored in the wing room, which is the result of Xiao Wei and Ding Jian’s busy work in the first half of the month.

If you want to sell it all in a scattered manner, it will take a certain amount of time. After accumulating a certain amount of funds, you will definitely need to build a soap workshop.

At that time, the oil needed to make soap will increase greatly. If animal oils are only used, the needs of soap workshops will definitely not be able to meet the needs of soap workshops.

So if you want to expand your soap business, you have to establish a channel for purchasing oil. If the Wei family can run an oil shop by themselves, it is naturally the best.

There is also wood ash, and the amount required will increase greatly. If you only rely on Xiao Wei and his wife to buy it in the village, it will not be enough.

In short, if you want to grow your soap business, you must build a complete production line.

As for the cooked food shop that Xiao Wei was longing for, it is not yet time, because most of the money he earned from selling bean sprouts was used to buy oil in order to make soap.

Later, Wei Yun bought a shot and a bow with fifty taels. From the Dragon Boat Festival to now, the business of bean sprouts has dropped to 100 kilograms per day. Now the family’s cash bank will not exceed 30 taels at most.

Such a little money is not enough for Xiao Wei’s shop. Even if you rent it, you can only rent a shop in some remote corners with thirty taels of silver.

Either you don’t open it, and you have to do it well if you want to open it. First of all, it is very important to select a geographical location. Anyway, after the first batch of funds for soap is recovered in a few days, the family will have more money, and the schedule for running a shop can be advanced.

Anyway, the brine you used to make the braised food can be kept alive.

As he thought about it, waves of sleepiness came, and Wei Yun didn't even know when he seemed to have fallen asleep.
