The Gao siblings sat at the table, heads lowered, sipping the batter from the bowl and biting the pancakes in their hands, not daring to take the food from Jiang Xiaoxiao.

A mouthful of porridge and a bite of pancake are already very luxurious delicacies for them, especially the pancake, which is mixed with oil and eggs. It is crispy and fragrant. You can't even eat it at home. How can you still eat it with the food on the table? What about eating?

Jiang Xiaoxiao couldn't help it, so he simply let them go. This person's habits couldn't be changed for a while, so he should take his time.

After observing this morning, she is satisfied with Gao Xiaoshuan. Although he is young, he is serious and hardworking in his work, and can be retained for long-term development. In the future, the cement and soap industries at home will need a lot of manpower when they are officially launched.

After eating, Gao Xiaoyan quickly cleared away the dishes on the table and went to the yard to wash them.

This work was originally done by Chun Miao and Sister Zhao. In addition to their dishes, there were also the dishes of more than 40 people in the yard to wash. This was not an easy job. Now Gao Xiaoyan took the initiative to help. , the two of them can also relax a lot.

Gao Xiaoshuan didn't dare to be idle. After eating, he ran to the yard to continue drying the sweet-scented osmanthus picked from the mountain in the morning. He also had to pick out some dead leaves and dust mixed in. These were meticulous tasks and not tiring, but Patience is required.

After the impurities in the sweet-scented osmanthus are cleaned up, another basin of water is brought in to wash them. After cleaning, they are placed on the bamboo mat to dry again.

Jiang Xiaoxiao took her mother back to the house, closed the door, showed Jiang Wei the wild beehive that was nearly the size of a basketball, and told her about the discovery of sweet-scented osmanthus on the mountain.

"This wild honey is good, but..."

Jiang Wei waved his hand, and several large jars of honey suddenly appeared on the table. They were all filled with glass jars. You could clearly see the golden translucent liquid inside. "The wild honey you brought back from the mountain is good, so I'll keep it for myself." Eat it alone, I use the honey for making soap."

Natural wild honey is not common, and its nutritional value is quite high. It is better to leave it to my daughter. Although she has a lot of honey in her space, it is all honey brewed by artificially bred bees, which is far less rare than wild honey.

"Okay!" Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded with a smile. Her mother was really a treasure trove. She had everything. As long as she couldn't think of it, there was nothing she couldn't get out.

"And..." Jiang Wei continued to wave her hand, and a few banknotes suddenly appeared on the table. In addition to going to the town to buy sheep today, she also went to deliver goods with Chunmiao and collected the bills for nearly half a month. Originally, the plan was to pay on a daily basis, with Chunmiao delivering the goods and then taking the money home.

But Chunmiao was timid and had to bring more than ten taels of silver home every day. She was always worried. As for the old man Zhao who was responsible for driving the carriage, he did not dare to take over the ten taels of silver, so he simply changed his name to Jiang Wei. Go to town to settle money once every half month.

The ice cream business in the town has lasted for more than two months, with nearly ten taels of silver coming in every day, and now it has earned more than six hundred taels in total.

Including the goods ordered by Jiang Yu, they made a total of more than 1,200 taels of silver from the ice cream and ice cream business.

After excluding the cost, the net profit is almost a thousand taels of silver!

But in actual calculation, the cost is far less than that. The raw materials for making ice cream and ice cream are almost taken out from Jiangwei Space, so it can be said that the cost is almost zero.

With more than a thousand taels of silver, excluding some household expenses and the money used to build a house, Jiang Wei took out 500 taels of silver alone and went to the bank to exchange them for banknotes. Five of them were exchanged for a total of 100 taels of denomination.

This money was saved to buy a shop.

Jiang Wei didn't know that her daughter had always wanted to own a shop of her own in the town, so she had to make plans in advance.

"Since autumn, the number of people eating ice cream and ice cream has gradually decreased, and the order quantity of various restaurants and teahouses has been reduced by half..." Jiang Wei spoke quietly, "Our ice cream and ice cream business will last another half month at most. You have to stop."

Firstly, the ice cream and ice cream reserves in her space are running low and can only last for half a month at most. Secondly, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be here in half a month. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather is getting colder day by day. It is really not suitable to continue selling ice cream and ice cream. The sales will be better in the next summer. Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded. As long as her soap production is successful, she can start selling soap in half a month.

After discussing the matter, the mother and daughter left the house.

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at the five sheep in the chicken pen, and then realized that the five sheep were not all dairy goats. Two of them had plump bodies, dense coats, and a pair of large spiral-shaped horns on their heads. They were obviously sheep.

But sheep don't produce milk.

Jiang Weidao: "I took the two girls to visit the birthing area on West Street in Yong'an Town, and only found three suckling goats. I saw sheep for sale, so I bought them all."

Dairy goats are goats whose main purpose is to produce milk. Generally, herdsmen in the northwest region of Dayin breed them on a large scale. They are rare in this area.

Jiang was extremely lucky not to be able to buy three suckling goats at once.

Now that taxation orders have been issued in major towns and counties, many families have to sell some of their poultry in order to collect the tax. Jiang Wei is also lucky to come across this time, otherwise such dairy goats, which specialize in producing milk, will It's almost impossible to find.

Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled and said: "Sheep produce a lot of wool, so we can raise them and use the wool to make clothes."

She paused and added: "I read in a book that sheep wool fabrics are comfortable and soft, and are most suitable for making clothes."

Jiang Wei originally planned to buy it and cook it for his daughter to eat as a roasted whole sheep. The sheep meat was tender and very delicious. Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiaoxiao only wanted to use wool to make clothes, so she could only nod her head and said: "Okay, let's make more sheep." After raising it for a few days, the hair produced will be enough to make a few woolen sweaters for you."

Although there is no shortage of such things in her space, if her daughter likes them, then she can keep them.

As a result, Chunya had more work to do. In addition to feeding the chickens and rabbits at home, she also had to find some extra thick hard straw or short grass to feed the sheep.

The progress of the new house was at the end, and Master Zheng came to see Jiang Wei that day.

"The brick wall is almost finished and the beams can be put on tomorrow. Do you have any choice about this wood?"

Jiang Wei nodded, looked at his rather large new house, and said, "I plan to use fir for the beams and columns."

Chinese fir has stable corrosion resistance and compression resistance, is not easily eaten by insects, and is heavy and does not easily deform, making it an ideal building material.

Moreover, there are them on Shanmu Mountain, so you can find many of them without spending much effort.

As the load-bearing structural beams of a house, there is no room for carelessness. Jiang Wei and Master Zheng personally led more than ten people up the mountain to look for fir trees.

There are a lot of fir trees on the mountain, but it still takes a lot of time to find the straight, uniform thickness of fir wood.

A group of people worked hard until the end of the day, almost five o'clock, before carrying the carefully selected fir trees home.
