All Hail Cousin Brother

I heard that the shopkeeper was the maidservant in front of Mrs. Xie in the past, and she had an unusual relationship with the young lady. It could be seen that the young lady really took them into her heart.

Later, the Xie family was about to evacuate from Quanzhou, and Bai Shao and Qing Xiu, like them, were the first to come here.

They are three people, and they are responsible for repairing the house in the house.

Bai Shao and Qing Xiu were outside the mansion, busy preparing for the herbs.

The two became veritable stewards.

In terms of status, they can't compare to them, but in terms of love, only Dongmei and Chunxiao in front of the eldest can be compared.

Thinking of this, Butler Jiang greeted with a smile: "Miss Bai Shao, you're not busy today? Why do you have time to go home?"

The lady wants to expand the business of Zhiyulou to the whole country and even overseas, and opens a fragrance shop in Xiangping, intending to supply the country's demand for fragrance medicines.

Bai Shao is responsible for the preparation and operation of Xiangfang.

Qingxiu is in charge of recruitment and training of herbal knowledge.

The two were very busy.

Bai Shao said politely, "Miss came to Xiangping for a few days. Today, I came here specially to visit Miss and report to her about the fragrance business."

Shopkeeper Wan hurriedly said, "If that's the case, we won't delay Miss Bai Shao's business."

When Yu Youyao was a child, Bai Shao and Qing Xiu served her in front of her grandmother. Apart from Madam Liu, Bai Shao and Qing Xiu took care of her the most.

After not seeing Bai Shao for a long time, Yu Youyao was very happy, and without waiting for Bai Shao to salute, she stepped forward and took her hand: "Sister Bai Shao is here, sit down and talk."

"Thinking that the girl has settled down, I have to come over to disturb the quietness of the girl." Bai Shao smiled slightly, and took advantage of the situation to support Yu Youyao and sat down to the short side.

It wasn't until Yu Youyao sat firmly that she sat next to Yu Youyao.

Bai Shao picked up the tea tray, put a few pieces of lychee charcoal on the tea tray from the small yellow mud stove, took the tea leaves from the tea box, sprinkled it on the charcoal fire, and covered the tea and charcoal with a tea cup.

Then hold up the teapot and slowly pour hot water.

The hot water is absorbed by the charcoal tea in the bowl, the tea bowl boils, the golden tea overflows along the edge of the cup, and the rich tea fragrance is filled with the unique burnt aroma of roasted tea.

Roasted tea seems simple, but it is a test of skill.

How to retain the original mellowness of the tea leaves under the charcoal fire, and then integrate the unique aroma of the charcoal roasting itself, it is generally difficult to achieve without a few years of effort.

Bai Shao picked up the tea tray with one hand, pressed the bottom of the bowl with the other, poured the roasted tea into the cup slowly, and presented it to the lady respectfully: "Miss, please drink tea."

Yu Youyao took the teacup, and the charcoal tea absorbed the greenness of the tea leaves, making it even more mellow: "Why didn't Sister Qingxiu come together?"

Bai Shao is holding a small clip and is peeling pine nuts: "Xiangfang is about to be put into operation, Qingxiu is responsible for recruiting workers, training rules, and some common sense on incense medicine. She is too busy to touch the ground. She wants to come, but she is divided If you don’t open, I plan to wait for the incense shop to open, and come here to greet you.”

Yu Youyao smiled while eating pine nuts: "It's embarrassing for you to set up such a big stall." In the past in Anshoutang, Bai Shao was in charge of affairs, Qingxiu was in charge of people, both of them were Liu Mammy trained: "By the way, you have been in Xiangping City for more than three months, but are you still adapting?"

After the grandmother went, Bai Shao and Qingxiu didn't want to get married, they wanted to comb their hair, stay in the house as a steward mother, and continue to serve her.

Privately, Yu Youyao didn't want them to do the work of serving people all the time.

It happened that she wanted to do the fragrance business, and there was no one who could use it, so she asked them what they meant, and the two of them naturally did their part.

Speaking of this, Bai Shao also showed a smile: "We have never done anything outside before, and we have a lot of ideas, but when we do it, we are crossing the river by feeling the stones, and our eyes are dark, thanks to Mrs. Xie Er and Mrs. Xie San. Butler Wen has also helped a lot, and Xiangfang has only been perfected day by day. Although it has been a little hard work, I have also learned a lot. It is not as comfortable as before, but it is a lot more comfortable."

Being able to continue to serve the young lady and bring out her greatest value, she and Qingxiu are very satisfied with their current life.

Next, she brought up Xiangfang.

Xiangfang was built there, and Yu Youyao was on a village in the south of Xiangping City, near Anshan.

At present, there are about 300 people, and they will increase or decrease in the future. According to the request of the eldest lady, the families of the martyrs will be given priority, the members of the army will be the next, orphans will be the second, and widowed mothers will be the second.

The staff are all introduced by the steward Wen, and after being trained and observed by Qing Xiu, after a second screening, the suitable ones will stay and make a contract with Xiangfang.

Those who have signed the deed of prostitutes must focus on inspections, and they will reuse them if they have the ability. Those who have signed the deed of work will only do some perfume-making work.

Xiang Fang is in her and Qing Xiu's hands.

Fragrant masters are also maids who served fragrance medicine in front of the young lady in the past. Beside the previous lady, they have learned a lot of skills, and it is not necessary to say loyalty.

In terms of spices and medicinal materials, not only have they negotiated a contract with the largest spice and medicinal materials in Xiangping, but also have two suppliers from Lin Yan and a dart shop.

Now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

"We built a shop in the best area of ​​Xiangping, and we took the general shop of Zhiyulou Xiangping. The layout of the shop was refurbished according to Quanzhou Zhiyulou, and the operation was similar to that there. Because the customs of the north and the south were different, the two places were the same. Different, Xiangfang is expected to start operation in early April, and shops will also open one after another..."

Yu Youyao kept listening to her finish, and then knocked down the teacup and said solemnly: "The opening of the incense shop should be put back when it is set up. Since ancient times, there have been ten disasters and nine plagues, and many refugees have poured into the north, so we must guard against it as soon as possible. Next, Xiangfang will try its best to make all kinds of fragrant medicines that are filthy, clean, and avoid plagues."

Hearing Bai Shao say that Xiangfang can already operate, which made Yu Youyao really relieved.

With a well-equipped incense shop, it is possible to hurry up the anti-epidemic incense with the highest efficiency.

Bai Shao's complexion also became serious: "I will contact the merchants that supply spices and medicinal materials in a moment, and ask them to supply a large number of spices and medicinal materials for the production of anti-epidemic incense medicine, and they will start to make anti-epidemic incense medicine tonight."

Hearing Bai Shao's words, Yu Youyao was relieved again: "Three hundred people is still too few, in my name, hire more temporary workers to speed up the production. It is not difficult to make incense to avoid the epidemic, and it is not required. Gao, considering that the process of making incense is relatively complicated, the steps of making incense can be separated, such as the treatment of medicinal materials, grinding, sieving, compatibility, etc., and hand them over to different people, so that they can only concentrate on one of them, and don’t have to be distracted by others. It can form a large-scale flow-type production, and it can also speed up the production.”

Bai Shao thought about it for a while and felt that this method was feasible: "I will contact Steward Wen and ask him to help hire a group of people. How to make it, I will discuss it with Qingxiu and the incense masters of Xiangfang."
