People in Datang, start with a golden hoe

Chapter 79 079: Preparation for opening (asking for monthly votes and recommended votes)
As they said, Cai Xiaolan and Xu Yinlian worked separately. One was responsible for recruiting and training apprentices, and the other was responsible for training the ladies of Liujiazhuang.

Cai Xiaolan set up a stall at the market in the morning and afternoon. She did not sell anything, but only wrote the words "recruiting apprentices" on the table in front of her.In order to attract the attention of passers-by, she also placed a set of tools for making tofu beside her.

……

Xue Xiangqin sold her donkey and got four thousand dollars to treat her mother. However, the recovery process was slow and the medicine could not be stopped.After struggling for seven or eight months with just four dollars, I saw that my money had bottomed out again, so I took to the streets to try my luck again.

She wanted to find a job opportunity, but unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived on the street, she saw her sister who bought her donkey at a high price last time.

"Sister, what are you doing?" She plucked up the courage and walked up to ask.

"Hey - you are the little girl who sold the donkey last time. What's wrong? Is your mother feeling better?" Cai Xiaolan had a good memory and recognized her at a glance.

"much better!"

"I'm recruiting apprentices!"

"Ah? Are there any conditions?" Xue Xiangqin immediately became energetic when she heard about the apprentice.

Cai Xiaolan looked at the little girl carefully from top to bottom. Her hair was long but not dry, and she could tell that she had taken good care of her hair. Although her clothes were shabby, they were very clean, and some places had been starched. The facial features are correct, which is worthy of the four-character word "beautiful features".

"What are you good at?" Cai Xiaolan asked.

"Nvhong, I learned weaving before, but after my father passed away, I didn't go there anymore!"

As soon as Cai Xiaolan heard it, she knew that the little girl was a careful person.

"How many people are in the family?"

"There is still my mother!" Xue Xiangqin said this with a lonely tone.The two of them cling to a small shabby house, which they got by fighting for their lives from the uncle of the Xue family.

"Okay, you are qualified. There is no salary during the study period, but meals are provided. We will talk about the specific salary when the shop makes money!" Cai Xiaolan blushed and accepted the first apprentice.

It is said that capital is bloody, no, her tofu shop has already started to squeeze the employees before it opened.

With the first, can the second be far behind?
Not long after, Cai Xiaolan recruited nine apprentices.In the middle of winter, there were too many people without work. When I heard that someone was recruiting apprentices here, everyone squeezed forward as if they were desperate.The next eight people were all carefully selected by Xiaolan.

According to her standards, all nine female apprentices looked good, with clean faces and well-proportioned figures.

After the recruitment was over, Cai Xiaolan brought the nine people to the gate of the government office. She had one last thing to do.

"Everyone, what I want to pass on to you is my unique secret technique, the only one in the world. If you want to learn it, we have to go to the government office to sign a letter of commitment, promising not to spread the technique of making tofu without my consent. go out."

Cai Xiaolan gave fifteen minutes for the nine to consider.

The nine people unanimously agreed that after all, according to their values, if you learn from others, you must be obedient.

Nine people signed the pledge together.

Cai Xiaolan took the person back to Ximen's shop for training.And when these girls saw that they could make tofu as white as jade, they were all obsessed.

"Okay, let's take a piece of the cooked tofu home to eat. We will come early tomorrow morning!" Cai Xiaolan looked at the group of apprentices with bright eyes in front of her and couldn't help but be full of confidence in the future of tofu.

Xu Yinlian was not idle at the other end, and in a day's time, she taught the slogans she shouted in the street.

……

In the streets and alleys of Yangzhou City, there are a group of country ladies and ladies, shouting strange slogans:

"Outside the number, the West City tofu shop is open! Mapo tofu, crucian carp tofu, fish-flavored tofu, minced meat tofu, scallion tofu..." This is the slogan shouted by big ladies and young ladies in residential areas.

"Excuse me, the Chengxi Tofu Shop is open for business! Buy tofu and get tofu for free, your head and belly will be full!" This is what they shouted at the market.

"Guangling is good, the tofu is very delicate. Mix it with soy sauce and ginger juice, weigh the catties and boil it in a hot pot with dried shrimps. Each person has two or three ladles." This is sung by children in the streets and alleys.

"Beans are grown at the foot of the southern mountain. The old pods are fresh in the frost and wind. The jade milk flows when grinded, and the clear spring is formed by steaming. The color is crisper and cleaner than earth, and the fragrance is stronger than stone marrow. The taste is more beautiful, so don't pass it on as a five-food item." This is posted on Posted outside the restaurant.

……

There are all kinds of propaganda, overwhelming, some cater to ordinary people, and some are specially for scholars to enjoy.

The tea house, tavern and inn are surrounded in all directions.

Half of the people in Yangzhou City know that there is a tofu shop at the west gate, and it will open in three days.

On the other hand, Cai Xiaolan's training is also in full swing.How can nine people work with the highest efficiency?

If you ask a serious person, the answer you will get will definitely be: assembly lines, division of labor, machines, etc.But if you ask an unscrupulous person, you will get a different answer: working overtime, drawing cakes, injecting chicken blood...

Cai Xiaolan is certainly a serious person.

She divides the process of making tofu into four steps, grinding beans, filtering soy milk, boiling soy milk and marinating, packing and pressing bean bags. There are two people in each process, and the remaining one just stands at the counter and is in charge of selling.

……

As the weather gets colder, Li Yunguang's face becomes colder and colder.Firstly, I am worried that the cold weather is not suitable for fighting in the Turkic territory!Secondly, I am worried that the people under my command have no clothes to keep out the cold in winter.

"Everyone, although there is nothing wrong with the local government recently, I feel pain in my heart. Every winter, many people will freeze to death. This year is special. A few days ago, people were displaced due to the impact of the flood. There are still five gathering places outside the west gate. The people from [-] households did not move back to the original village. Other cities and suburbs under the jurisdiction have been reporting that people’s houses have been blown from east to west. Let’s divide the work today and go to a place alone to listen to the voices of the people and see the truth of the people. Condition."

Under Li Yunguang's chair, all the officials of Yangzhou City sat.Zeng Changshi, Lu Sansi, Wang Junwei...

Everyone responded in unison and chose where they wanted to go.As for the final Yangzhou City, of course no one competed with Li Governor.

Not long after, Li Yunguang, accompanied by Master Gong, wandered slowly in the city.When he walked outside a small alley, Mr. Li was attracted by a burst of nursery rhymes.

"Lao Gong, listen! This nursery rhyme is not vulgar!"

Master Gong listened, "It's really good, Guangling is good, and the tofu is very delicate. Mix it with soy sauce and ginger juice...it rhymes exceptionally, but the form is flexible. But what is the tofu in it?"

Gong Xingzhi didn't expect Li Yunguang to answer, he went to the children, used two coins, and called the two children over, "Little boy, tell me, where did you hear the nursery rhyme you just said?"

When the child saw the money, his round eyes froze, "A few days ago, a group of ladies were shouting on the street. I heard that a tofu shop at the West Gate was about to open."

"Do you know anything else?" Master Gong took out two dollars again.

"I know!" Another child walked up to the front and recited to himself: "Growing beans at the foot of Nanshan...the taste is more than delicious, so don't pass it on to others."

After listening to this, Li Yunguang sighed in his heart, "Wang Laojiu is causing trouble again!" The style of this poem is exactly the same as Wang Laojiu's hermit pastoral style.If not him, then who?
