Chapter 79 Plant More Peppers

Speaking of Auntie Wang, after helping out last time, she was like a root to the ground, and refused to move a step in the workshop! Shen Jing tried to persuade her, even threatened to drive her away, but it was useless! In the end, Shen Jing reluctantly agreed to let her stay out of desperation! After all, people are made of flesh and blood. Who can be so cruel as to really embarrass an old lady?

"Auntie, I really admire your ability!" said a worker in his forties in the workshop with a smile.

"An Hong, I'm just trying to make a living!" Aunt Wang grinned. "I envy Old Li so much. He works with Jing girl and lives such a wonderful life. I don't mean to make things difficult for Jing girl!"

"Yeah, you're absolutely right! Since I came here to work, life at home has become much more relaxed!" Wang Anhong said with a smile.

"That's right. Ever since I've been here, we can eat meat from time to time at home! Hehe!" Huang Xiaohua also interjected with a smile.

"I plan to plant more peppers at home this year and sell them to workshops when the time comes, hehe!" said the elderly Li Xiaocao happily.

"Oh, after hearing what you said, I'll plant more this year too! Hehehe!"

"Haha, then let's all plant more!" Aunt Wang agreed.

"What are you talking about? You look so happy!" Shen Jing heard their laughter as soon as she arrived at the workshop.

"Hey, Jing, we were just planning to go home and plant more peppers this year and sell them all to you when the time comes, okay?" Aunt Wang asked with a smile.

"That's great, this way the output of our workshop can be increased a lot. And since it's right in the village, we can save a lot of transportation costs!" Shen Jing was very happy.

"However, you must pay attention to the quality when growing peppers. Our workshop pays great attention to quality." Shen Jing reminded.

"Don't worry, Jing, we will definitely not use bad seeds!" Aunt Wang said quickly.

"That's good," Shen Jing nodded. "By the way, Aunt Xiaohua, your child is not going to school anymore, why don't you let her come to the workshop to help out and earn some living expenses?"

"Oh, Jing, you are so thoughtful! I will talk to her about it when I get home from get off work today." Huang Xiaohua said gratefully.

Everyone expressed their agreement, and for a moment, the workshop was filled with laughter.

Shen Jing looked at the lively scene in front of her, her heart filled with emotion. She knew that as long as everyone worked together, the workshop would definitely get better and better.

As time went by, the temperature gradually rose, and the hot breath filled the air. Shen Jing endured the invasion of the heat wave, thinking to herself: "The weather is getting hotter and hotter. I have to find a way to cool down the store!" So she decided to buy a few fans to improve the environment in the store.

At the same time, the workshop also realized the discomfort caused by the high temperature, and they also took action and purchased several fans to cope with the hot working environment. These fans will bring a little coolness to the workers, allowing them to continue working in relatively comfortable conditions.

"Wow, this electric fan is so cool!" Aunt Wang, who was washing peppers in the workshop, was pleasantly surprised when she felt the fan for the first time.

"Well, I'll buy one for my family when I save some money!" Wang Anhong said with a smile.

"I don't know if this fan consumes a lot of electricity. Our family is very frugal with electricity!" Li Xiaocao said worriedly. She has been used to being frugal all her life and thinks buying an electric fan is a bit of a luxury.

Shen Jing looked at everyone's satisfied expressions and felt relieved. She reminded everyone to pay attention to safety when using the fan to avoid accidents.

At this time, Huang Xiaohua mentioned a problem that had been bothering her for a long time: "Jing girl, this summer is too hot. The peppers in our workshop are prone to spoiling. What should we do?"

Shen Jing thought for a moment and came up with an idea: "Why don't we build a cold storage to extend the shelf life of the peppers."

Everyone looked at each other and nodded, "This is a good idea." But building a cold storage requires a lot of money, which makes everyone feel troubled.

Seeing this, Shen Jing encouraged everyone, "Let's work together to find a way to raise funds. I believe we can solve this problem." Everyone responded and expressed their willingness to do their best.

So Shen Jing went to the village to report the situation, but encountered difficulties. After she came back, she told everyone: "The village's funds are also very tight, and we can't provide much help for the time being. However, we can't give up, let's think of other ways."

After some discussion, some people suggested borrowing money from relatives and friends, some suggested looking for partners, and some suggested applying for relevant government support projects. Everyone took action and raised funds through various channels.

With the joint efforts of everyone, the cost of building a cold storage was finally raised. Soon after, a brand new cold storage was built next to the workshop.

Looking at the neatly arranged fresh peppers in the warehouse, everyone's faces were filled with joyful smiles. Shen Jing said with emotion: "It is not terrible to encounter difficulties. As long as we work together, we will be able to overcome difficulties and achieve our goals."

"Jing, these are cucumbers grown by our family. They are absolutely green and pollution-free! I specially picked some fresh ones for you to taste!" Wang Anhong handed the basket of cucumbers to Shen Jing with a smile on her face.

Shen Jing took the basket with great joy, and her gratitude was beyond words: "Oh, Sister An Hong, how come you brought me so much! Thank you so much!"

Then, Shen Jing took out the cucumbers from the basket one by one and enthusiastically distributed them to everyone in the workshop: "Come on, aunties, try one! These are organic cucumbers grown by Sister An Hong!" Everyone took the cucumbers with a smile and expressed their gratitude.

At this moment, the whole workshop was filled with laughter and a warm atmosphere. This simple and sincere friendship also made everyone feel warm.

After tasting the cucumbers, Shen Jing looked at everyone and said in a firm tone: "Our workshop can achieve its current results thanks to everyone's efforts. We must work together in the future to make the workshop better and better!" Everyone responded with high morale.

At this time, Aunt Wang suddenly said, "Jing girl, I have an idea. We can make some pickled cucumbers and increase our product variety."

Shen Jing's eyes lit up, "That's a good idea, Aunt Wang! We can give it a try."

Then everyone began to discuss the research and development of new products enthusiastically, and the atmosphere was harmonious and joyful.

Suddenly, Miao Cuiping seemed to remember something and whispered, "Cucumber is a good thing! It is a seasonal vegetable. This kind of vegetable can only be grown when the weather is hot. Moreover, not every family will grow cucumbers..."

This reminded Shen Jing: "Let's launch a limited-time sale in the store! Hehe!"
