After being exiled, I led my whole family to rebel.

Chapter 62 Making Soap
Xu Qingying hesitated, then suddenly smiled, "Father, don't panic, I still have some money left."

Xu Degui went all the way into the city today, so he naturally knew the cost.

The total of the three houses was more than ten taels of silver, and the molds accounted for most of it. With the purchased raw materials and some dry food, there should be very little left over these ten taels of silver.

Xu Degui couldn't help but wonder: "Where did you get the money? Our 15 taels of silver should have been almost spent, right?"

Xu Qingying deliberately let it go, "Of course someone is very optimistic about this soap business and invested in me early."

Xu Degui was stunned. After much thought, he couldn't guess who this person was, so he had to ask: "Who are you talking about?"

"I promised them to keep it a secret." Seeing Xu Degui's tense brows, Xu Qingying couldn't help but smile, "Father, don't worry, our capital is not a problem. What we should worry about is not how much soap can be made, but how much it can sell. "

That being said, Xu Degui has never made any decisions on his own in his life, not to mention that the soap business is getting bigger and bigger now. Without any funds coming back, Xu Qingying is already thinking about how to increase production. According to her, Before arriving in Henan Prefecture, they had to obtain at least 5000 yuan of soap manufacturing capacity.

What if all this is lost?
Xu Degui only felt frightened and couldn't sleep with worry these days.The business hasn't started yet, but a few hairs have turned gray first.

When I went back, I met Xu Deyuan again. Xu Deyuan stood with his hands behind his back and looked him up and down. His tone was full of disapproval: "I heard from Team Leader Zhao that we will not be on our way in the future and will have to stay for one day." Making soap?”

When Xu Degui saw this second brother again, he remembered that he was instigating several people behind his back, saying that their soap business could not make money, and he felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

But after all, the love of brotherhood cannot be cut off. Although he is somewhat unhappy, he has always been subordinate to Xu Deyuan. No matter how big his dissatisfaction is, he will habitually suppress it, "Ying'er arranged it this way."

"Xu Qingying talks all the time. Is it you or your daughter who calls the shots for the third bedroom? How can you, a majestic seven-foot-tall man, listen to a woman giving orders?"

Xu Degui said slowly: "Second brother is right."

Seeing that Xu Degui's attitude was still respectful, Xu Deyuan was satisfied, "Don't verbally agree to deal with me. She is just a young girl with yellow hair, how can she know how to do business? As her father, you have to control her well."

Xu Degui sighed helplessly.

In the past, the family shop was busy with business, and Miao was responsible for disciplining the children.It wasn't until he had more contact with Xu Qingying in the past two days that he realized how powerful she was. Although Xu Degui was honest, he was also self-aware and knew very well that with his own ability, how could he control Xu Qingying?
Look at the child's magnanimity in doing things, his speech is impeccable, and he can teach everyone around him to be obedient.

He finally understood that this eldest daughter was really capable and much more powerful than him.

Xu Degui acted like a mute and just nodded.

Xu Deyuan continued to lecture: "Also, although this soap business belongs to your third room, we are brothers after all. Don't blame me for not mentioning some things to you."

"Second brother, please speak."

"I heard someone said that you are going to make soap worth 5000 yuan?"

Xu Degui hesitated for a moment, finally feeling wary of Xu Deyuan's clichés this time, but thinking about this matter, Team Leader Zhao had just told everyone that he would continue to select people tomorrow, and he couldn't hide it from Xu Deyuan, so he simply Tell the truth.

"That's what Ying'er said."

It's Ying'er again!

Xu Deyuan was furious when he heard this, but suppressed his temper and said word by word: "Nonsense! Do you know how many people there are in Henan Prefecture? In a city of only 10 people, you actually want to sell soap for 5000 yuan. Do you really think that soap is... What kind of golden treasure is everyone trying to grab? If it falls into your hands, how are you going to deal with it?"

These words touched Xu Deyuan's heart.

He was not worried because he was afraid that Henan Prefecture would not be able to digest the 5000 yuan soap.

But he didn't want to show his timidity in front of Xu Deyuan, so he bit the bullet and said: "There will be a way. This soap is a good thing, how could anyone not want it?"

"You are so kind as a donkey liver and lungs. How old is Xu Qingying? How old are you? Can you still afford to lose at your age? If you don't listen to me, why are you so impatient? Go and stop her quickly. Work steadily along the way and sell as much as you make. , wouldn’t it be safer?”

"How do we sell things in the third room? I don't have to worry about it for my second uncle." Suddenly a clear female voice sounded, and Xu Qingying came back and walked towards her. She was young, but she was full of impressiveness, her eyes were smiling, and she was... It makes people feel alienated, "The second uncle has good intentions and takes great care of the third bedroom. My niece thanks me in advance."

After that, Xu Qingying made a gift that no one could fault.

"It's just that everything has pros and cons. The so-called wealth is gained in danger, but my niece feels that doing business is like fighting a war. Since she has seized the opportunity, she will naturally catch her by surprise and fight beautifully."

Xu Deyuan twitched his lips, "Can you still fight? Don't show off after reading a few books. There are many people in this team who are more knowledgeable than you. You are a yellow-haired girl who knows nothing about business. Don't lose yourself. Go bankrupt!"

"Since this soap business has been stipulated that the third house will be responsible for its own profits and losses, how to sell it and whether it can be sold will not bother my second uncle to worry about it." Xu Qingying glanced at Xu Deyuan's neck and suddenly said with a confused smile. One sentence, "I see that my second uncle has been carrying shackles on his back all day, and his neck is bruised. Why don't you apply for the job early tomorrow? Anyone who helps me can ask the officials to remove the shackles. Second uncle is weak and hard-working. If he is on the road to exile If your health gets worse, you won’t have to worry about your niece.”

Xu Deyuan's pupils shrank.

This is clearly showing off, threatening, and intimidating.

What does Xu Qingying mean?
Doesn't this tell him clearly that he must be obedient, otherwise he will have to wear the shackles all the time?
Xu Deyuan's face changed slightly, and he said with a sneer: "My niece is very capable of getting along with the peacekeepers so quickly. Okay, I want to see how far your third wife can go without me, Xu Deyuan!"

Xu Deyuan walked away with a puff of his sleeves.

Xu Qingying shook her head, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

This second uncle, who says he is not smart?

She actually felt that Xu Deyuan was mean-spirited.

Xu Qingying turned her head and saw Xu Degui frowning. She heard from Miao that Xu Degui had been so worried that he couldn't sleep in the past few days. Thinking that the couple had never dealt with such a big thing, they felt panic for a while, so she said: " Father, are you scared? Second uncle is angry with shame——"

"I know. He couldn't wait to come to me and say these words, which made me even more confident."

"Oh?" Xu Qingying raised her eyebrows, "What do you mean by this?"

"Your second uncle, in short, he just doesn't want us to live better than our second brother...cough..." Meeting Xu Qingying's bright eyes, Xu Degui waved his hand and put on the face of a strict father, "Okay, stop asking about your elders. . You should concentrate on making soap. 5000 yuan is not a small amount, so you must not throw it away in your hands!" Xu Qingying understood this time that Xu Degui was not a confused person, and he also saw through Xu Deyuan's little tricks.It's nothing more than trying to mess up their soap business...

The smile in Xu Qingying's eyes became deeper this time.

The Xu family is really interesting.

What would Xu Deyuan's reaction be if she knew that except for the second bedroom, everyone in the Xu family had privately approached her to ask for investment?
Very good, she has successfully dug into the second uncle's corner. On the surface, everyone in the house obeys Xu Deyuan's orders, but secretly they all have their own Xiao Jiujiu.

The Xu family is such a mess... How about she just become the head of the family?

Xu Qingying suddenly had such an idea, but the more she thought about it, the more feasible it became.

The power of the ancient family cannot be underestimated. If she can conquer the entire Xu family and train her, then the younger generation of the Xu family will become her right-hand man. Maybe she can be a mountain king in a poor place like Qianzhou?
This time, Xu Qingying went to the city again and bought dozens of pig soaps, despite the objections of Bantou Zhao and others.The carriage was so full that the wheels were almost crushed. Xu Huiming finally managed to pull the things back.

Today is a special day. They have to stay in the camp for two days to complete the task of making soap worth 5000 yuan!
Xu Qingying had already made a work plan. Early in the morning, Team Leader Zhao removed everyone's shackles. Under Xu Qingying's impassioned speech, everyone understood that they would stay here for two days to make soap.

Most of the people in the Fang family did not participate and just watched the excitement.

There are about five or sixty people who can actually participate.

Xu Qingying sent out the division of labor early in the morning.One group is responsible for logistics, and is responsible for everyone's diet and camping in the wild; the second group is responsible for beating and cutting pig pancreas; the third group is responsible for boiling lard; the fourth group is responsible for burning plant ashes and filtering the supernatant to form lye.

Before starting work, Xu Qingying distributed the KPIs that needed to be completed for each group, and also set quality standards for the production line.For example, to what extent do pig pancreas pass the test? The supernatant of the lye solution must be transparent. The members of the group are divided into three groups to supervise each other. If the standards are not met, wages will be deducted. With these Regarding quantitative KPIs, everyone has done their best.

Without the shackles of shackles, the logistics team will wipe your sweat when you are hot. When you are thirsty, just call and someone will bring you water. You can take a break every half hour with a stick of incense, and you can even talk in a low voice. This kind of treatment is beyond everyone's expectations. , I admire Miss Xu Liu's skills even more.

You can still earn some pocket money on the way to exile, not to mention that the work is not heavy and can be done by women and children. What’s more, the more you do, the more you get, who wouldn’t be happy with that?Who doesn’t remember Xu Qingying’s favor?

Captain Zhao originally thought that so many people would be disorganized, and was already prepared to shout hoarse today. Unexpectedly, in the small camp, everyone was arranged in an orderly manner, performing their duties, and there was not even a trace of verbal communication. .

Everyone was working hard with their heads down, and their hands were moving non-stop. It was such a hot scene!

Mr. Fang walked slowly through the crowd with his hands behind his back and his body bent.

He heard women talking quietly from time to time.

"Oh, you can't do this, you have to let it go again. Miss Xu said, the supernatant must be clear and translucent. If it doesn't meet the standard, all three of us will have to deduct money——"

"Sister-in-law of the Zhang family, come and see, am I bright enough?"

"It's very bright, that's it. We have to work harder, we can't let Group A compare us. Miss Xu said, everyone in the alkali production group No. 1 will get double wages..."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Why don't you hurry up and do it!"

After walking around, the smile on Old Man Fang's face gradually became serious.

At first, he wanted to see the excitement, but the more he looked, the more frightened he became.

He looked at this team that had strict rules and regulations, coordinated and relaxed, and suddenly thought that such a grassroots team made up of women and children was even more disciplined than the regular army -

If the army of the Great Zhou Dynasty could have such a style, the Xiongnu would not have looted and killed them all the way to Datong Mansion...

At this time, this veteran of three dynasties finally looked squarely at Miss Xu Liu for the first time.

You can catch a glimpse of a leopard and know something from the smallest detail. Xu Qingying is a woman, but she has a strong organizational ability. From the soap incident, we can also see that she dares to think and do. Because she has not read poetry and books, she is not bound by etiquette and law. She has unconventional thinking and a man-like mind and heart. Vigor...

Pity.

If this were a man, with her qualifications, she would be granted the title of marquis or prime minister.

It's a pity that she is a girl. Even if the soap business is successful, she can only become a merchant at most. At worst, she will find a son of an official to marry. This is already an excellent ending.

Fang Lao felt a sense of emotion and regret in his heart.

Just as I was thinking this, I heard a commotion in the crowd, like women quarreling and crying.

As expected, country women are talkative, so this improvised team took half a day with only a few bumps in the road.

"Come on, come on, you are so vicious and evil-hearted, I want to break off the engagement now! Take your girl and get out of here. If you let me see you again, I will beat you out with a big stick!"

Xu Qingying saw a dispute broke out among the team, and immediately rushed over to deal with it. Only then did she see a few people from the main house fighting with the girl from the Qian family. The girl from the Qian family was crying so hard that the girl beside her supported her, and the two of them cried together. .

Xu Qingying saw that everyone had lost their previous working momentum, and they all looked over curiously. Some even left their positions and ran over to watch the fun.

She quickly shouted to everyone: "Everyone, please sit back in your seats. Don't forget that everyone has an assessment task. If you just watch the fun and fail to achieve the goal, you will only have food and no wages today. What? Aunts and sisters, you want to work for me for free..."

Someone laughed and joked: "Let's just take a look and see..."

"What's there to see? The excitement is not as important as making money. Don't forget, this business is not mine alone. If I delay the officials, I won't be able to take off the shackles tomorrow -"

This threat actually worked.

The uncles and aunts who were watching the excitement dispersed instantly and returned to their seats. Xu Qingying had no choice but to pull everyone in the big room to one side to deal with it.
