The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband
Chapter 486 Birthday Gift
"You don't need to teach anything, just sit in charge." Ye Yuxiao said, "Of course, if you are willing to open a class of Gu, witchcraft, blessing, poison, etc., that would be even better."
She was choosing a principal for the men's medical school, so naturally she wanted to choose someone who was famous enough so that students could trust him and come here. As for letting Tan Shizhao take on the teaching job, she had never had such extravagant hopes. After all, he didn't even bother to teach his serious apprentices.
Tan Shizhao understood that he was just there to show off his appearance. If it were anyone else, he would definitely be angry, but he was very satisfied with it and waved his slender hand: "Very good, you can go."
Ye Yuxiao left Shiquanyuan and went to Anding Lane. At this time, the sound of morning reading at Mingche Nursing School had just begun. She called Dai Peilan out and told her that Tan Shizhao had promised to take her directly to see her master next year. Although this matter will have to wait a long time, Dai Peilan has not seen the master for many years, and it is not too late, so he is still very happy.
In the evening, Ye Yuxiao got off work, walked around the drug store again, and returned home. She was very surprised to see Xiaozhan listless and sighing, so she quickly pulled out all the recent things and sorted them out. Yan's mother's son has already obtained the pasture at the lowest price. Now he is building stables, repairing houses, and planning to build a horse farm. He has also begun to select the horses she wants from horse dealers. Although the business of the drug store is not good, it is not bad either and it is operating normally. With the joint efforts of the entire government, enough quantities of the whitening and rejuvenating powder have been prepared for 200 boxes. We are just waiting for the high-end boxes inlaid with broken crystals to be put on the shelves. The newly arrived crystals have been transported to the workshop, and the craftsmen have begun to make a new batch of syringes and other utensils according to her requirements.
Everything is going smoothly, what is Xiaozhan worried about?
Ye Yuxiao stepped forward out of curiosity and patted her shoulder: "What trouble did you encounter? Tell me."
Xiaozhan raised his head: "What trouble can this slave have? I'm worried about you! It's the second cousin's birthday soon, what should you give her? Sisters give gifts to each other, and you don't want to spend money on ready-made ones. The things she has made are all made by herself to express her feelings. Others usually give her handkerchiefs that she embroidered and pictures that she painted, but you can't give her a box of medicine that you made by yourself, right?"
"Hey, I thought you were worried about something. In the past, this matter might have been worth worrying about, but now don't I have something that I made myself and is suitable for giving as a gift?" Ye Yuxiao said, touching He raised his nose and said, "It's just that the boxes with broken crystals haven't been finished yet. How about putting them in ordinary boxes first?"
Yes! Madam now has hand-made gouache to give as a birthday gift to the second cousin. What could be more appropriate than this? What's more, the second cousin has wanted this thing in the first place, and this gift will definitely be delivered to her heart. The sadness on Xiaozhan's face was wiped away, and he jumped up happily: "I'm going to the workshop right now. They made some samples from the broken crystals today. I'm going to get them back now!"
It’s true that the wind is like the rain, even the samples have to be taken. But Ye Yuxiao didn't bother to care about such trivial matters and just let her go.
The workshop is not close to Mrs. Ning Hui's house, but Xiaozian returned with three boxes in less than an hour. She held the box and complained to herself: "The foreman is too stingy. He only gave me three. He said that if he gave me too much, they would have to make new samples."
"Three boxes are enough, just one box for each color number." Ye Yuxiao comforted her.
Xiaozhan was very easy to coax, and she was happy when she saw that Ye Yuxiao was satisfied.
After dinner, Xiaozhan urged Ye Yuxiao to fill the gouache: "Madam, the gouache you made by yourself is considered your heartfelt intention. These slaves cannot do it for you."
Ye Yuxiao was convinced and asked her to take the box and go to the gouache workshop together.
Dai Peilan had dinner with her. She originally planned to go back to her room to read after eating, but she heard that Ye Yuxiao was preparing a birthday gift for Gu Qingyan, so she followed her.
This gouache workshop is an independent yard specially set aside by Ye Yuxiao for the purpose of making gouache. The word "Teng" used here is actually not very appropriate, because there were several empty courtyards in Mrs. Ning Hui's house. She would pick out any one at random and order people to clean and decorate it before using it.
In Dai Peilan's view, Ye Yuxiao is undoubtedly rich, but her wealth obviously cannot keep up with the speed at which she spends money, so she has to work hard to make money. She felt that there was no need for Ye Yuxiao to be like this. Wouldn't it be nice to run the medical clinic safely? But she then joked that her vision was too narrow, she was too easily satisfied, and she lacked the energy that Ye Yuxiao had.
Entering the gouache shop, several little maids were surrounding the newly brought box, admiring it. It is very common for wealthy people to set jewelry on jewelry boxes. However, this is just a gouache box. Something that is thrown away after use is also inlaid with crystals?
They followed Ye Yuxiao, and they all found it incredible as they were people who had seen the world, not to mention Dai Peilan. She even felt that selling these three empty boxes could feed the whole village of Shihu Village.
Ye Yuxiao looked at their sparkling eyes and couldn't bear to tell them the truth: "Actually, these broken crystals are just scraps for making syringes..."
Her original intention was to let them know that these broken crystals were not as valuable as they thought, so their reaction did not need to be so exaggerated. But when Dai Peilan heard this, he was so surprised that he said, "The scraps used to make syringes are so valuable, so how much money does it cost to buy so many syringes from Mingche Medical Center and Nursing School?"
She finally knew where Ye Yuxiao's money had been spent, and she finally knew why she was still struggling to make money when she clearly had countless wealth.
Maybe when she was making syringes, it was just like how she runs the horse farm now. In the eyes of others, it was just a fool's errand. But it turns out that syringes make perfect sense and are by no means a waste of money.
Ye Yuxiao touched her nose while listening to Dai Peilan's exclamation. Uh...that's not what she wanted to express. But Dai Peilan is right, making syringes is indeed very expensive. And the test tubes and beakers in her laboratory are also expensive.
Not to mention crystal products, metal products were also very expensive in the Xi Dynasty. Otherwise, how could iron money, silver and gold become hard currencies. Therefore, even the small things they usually use, such as needles, tweezers, and scalpels, are not cheap.
Ye Yuxiao thought about it and lamented: "Now you know why I am so poor."
Several maids nodded repeatedly and said that they would work harder to make gouache and help Ye Yuxiao get out of poverty as soon as possible.
