Chapter 217 Good harvest
Zhang’s house in Taoyuan Lane, Chengyang County.
Zhang Xinghao: "Brother, Xiao Chao, we have already visited all the towns, big and small, in Chengyang County. We have found a grocery store to cooperate with in each town and signed a contract. I calculated that the total orders for the entire Chengyang County are several thousand kilograms."
Zhang Chao: "Yes, Xiaoyun, although I have told the shop owners that they will deliver it to them as soon as possible, when Uncle Li went back to the workshop last time, he did talk to Grandpa Zhang about expanding the workshop.
But we still have to go back to the village to check out the situation. It is not suitable to expand directly to Wuyun County now. Let's first check the output of the workshop.
We will go to Wuyun County again. We have harvested a lot of peppers during this period and can send them back.”
Zhang Xingyun nodded: "Yes, we also bought 15 trucks of peppers. We are also in the county now. Chengyang County is only half a day away from Zhangjia Village.
Then, let's go home tomorrow with the order and visit our family. We haven't been home for more than two months."
Li Hai said happily: "Okay, I will go and tell everyone now. If they hear that they can go home, they will definitely be very happy."
The next morning.
Li Hai and Li He bought 100 meat buns at the bun shop and half a bucket of soy milk for everyone as breakfast.
After everyone had eaten the buns and drank the soy milk, they harnessed the horse-drawn carriage and loaded all the peppers onto it and tied them up.
A group of sixteen horse-drawn carriages drove towards Zhangjia Village in a mighty procession.
Noon.
The carriage returned to Zhangjia Village.
Because the carriage was loaded with peppers, everyone drove it directly to the workshop.
After parking the carriage in front of the workshop, Zhang Chao knocked on the door.
Zhang Xingzhong came out of the workshop and saw Zhang Xingyun and his companions driving back in a horse-drawn carriage with so many peppers and peanuts. He couldn't help but feel happy.
The workshop's output has increased during this period, and more than a thousand kilograms of peppers are used every day. Fortunately, a lot of peppers were stored before, otherwise they would not be able to keep up with the output.
Zhang Xingzhong came out and patted Zhang Chao on the shoulder: "Xiao Chao, you guys are back now. You must have gained a lot from this trip."
"Yes, that's right, Brother Zhong, take out the scale and weigh it. These peppers and peanuts were bought in other towns under Chengyang County, which are quite far from us."
"Okay, that's good. The workshop has increased its production recently, and the peppers used are increasing. Wait, I'll get the scale out."
Zhang Xingzhong turned around and went back to the workshop and took out a scale from the warehouse.
Some of the guards unloaded the goods, some weighed the peppers, and the rest moved the weighed peppers to the warehouse and stacked them up.
With so many people, the peppers could be moved quickly. It only took two or three quarters of an hour to weigh all the peppers and peanuts and move them to the warehouse and pile them up.
Zhang Xingzhong received a notice from Grandpa Zhang that the peppers bought by the guard team would be recycled by the workshop at the same price as the Zhu and Qiao families.
After Zhang Xingzhong calculated the price, he subtracted the price of all the peppers that Zhang Xingyun quoted, and then gave the remaining money to Zhang Xingyun.
Zhang Xingyun divided the money equally among everyone on the spot, and everyone earned about 500 coins.
This trip will last for more than half a month, and food and accommodation are provided. Not only will there be monthly wages, but now they can earn money on their own. Everyone in the escort team is very happy.
Song Qiang, one of Li Da's comrades, said: "Xiao Yun, the goods have been unloaded. Let's drive the carriage to the old house and go home first. We have been away for more than half a month and everyone is homesick. When you leave again, let us know and we will be there immediately."
"Okay, uncles and brothers, you have been tired recently, go home and rest for a few days. It just so happens that I got paid today, so I can buy some meat for my family and let's celebrate together."
"That's right. All right, let's drive the carriage back first."
"Oh, okay, thank you for your help."
After the guards left, only Zhang Xingyun, Zhang Xinghao and Zhang Chao were left at the workshop door, with Zhang Xingzhong standing nearby.
Zhang Xingyun saw that there was still some time before he could finish work and go home for dinner: "Brother Zhong, let's go into the workshop. I have something to ask you."
He put his arm around Zhang Xingzhong's shoulder and went to the reception room of the workshop.
Zhang Xinghao and Zhang Chao followed behind.
The four of them sat down in the reception room.
Zhang Xingzhong: "Xiaoyun, what do you want to ask?"
Zhang Xingyun: "It's like this, cousin Zhong, this time in Chengyang County, in addition to Sanhe Town, we also have three towns where my great grandfather and second grandfather are staying. For the rest of the towns, we have signed contracts with local grocery stores. We currently have orders for 5,000 to 6,000 kilograms of chili peppers and crispy whistles."
After saying that, he took out the order booklet in his arms which recorded the needs of each product of the workshop.
"Here's the order. By the way, Cousin Zhong, how much inventory do you have now? Let's get rid of the order from Tianxianglou first. It will probably take you a few days to prepare all the goods."
Zhang Xingzhong looked at the number of orders and breathed a sigh of relief: "Xiaoyun, luckily when Uncle Li came back last time, he mentioned it to Third Grandpa and the others. After that, we doubled the size of the workshop and recruited a lot of people from other villages.
So we have stored a lot of goods during this period, about 2,000 to 3,000 kilograms. The workshop produces about 1,000 to 2,000 kilograms every day. In addition, Tianxianglou just took away all the goods yesterday, so we will have everything you need the day after tomorrow. You can just wait and see when to come to pick up the goods. "
Zhang Xingyun patted Zhang Xingzhong on the shoulder and said happily, "Okay, brother, you guys are great. Let's rest at home for two or three days and then we'll pick up the goods and set off for Chengyang County."
Zhang Xingzhong raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, you guys are out there, I'll work hard to make more stock for you in the workshop, and I won't hold you back.
But if we suddenly increase production, we must send the letter back in time. Last time Uncle Li came back, in order to catch up with the order, everyone took turns to rest at night. We worked non-stop for three days before we got all the goods ready, haha."
"Okay, got it. We still need to increase production next. It would be best if we can produce about 3,000 kilograms a day. We will also visit other counties later, so we will definitely get more and more orders."
"Yes, I know. I will discuss this with Third Grandpa, Uncle, and Second Uncle."
"Okay, cousin Zhong, we've finished talking about this. Let's go back first. Our family doesn't know we're back yet."
"Okay, you guys go back first."
Zhang Xingzhong escorted the three people out of the workshop.
Arrived at the gate of Zhang’s house.
Zhang Chao waved to Zhang Xingyun and his brother, "Xiaoyun, Xiaohao, you are home now. Come in. I am going home too."
"Okay, Xiaochao, take a good rest these two days. We will set off in three days."
"Well, I know. I really can't stay at home for long. After all, the grocery store is still waiting for the goods. Okay, then I'll go home."
The Zhang Xingyun brothers also entered the house.
