The Village Doctress Chapter 255: Make jasmine powder
No matter what, Lin Fufu felt that Mrs. Song was definitely not thinking of her, and must have her own purpose.
But the official's wife has already talked about this point, if she still doesn't agree, it will appear that she doesn't know how to flatter her.
"Okay, Mama Qiu thanked Madam for me!" Lin Fufu hooked the corners of his lips, although seeing this old guy was very upset, but she came to give her a red envelope, so he reached out and touched it. A tael of broken silver ingots sent her away.
Mother Qiu didn't expect Lin Fufu, a country girl, to offer a tael of silver as a reward, her old eyes flickered.
It seems that not only her, but also her master has underestimated this girl, and when she goes back, she must tell her madam that the reward in the red envelope is still short...
After sending Qiu's mother away, Lin Fufu opened the thin red envelope and took a look. Inside was a fifty-two denomination bank note.
Her lips hooked again.
This Mrs. Song is not generous, but fifty taels of red envelopes for her delivery is not a small amount, but it is not enough if you count life-saving ones.
But Lin Fufu is not someone who cares about this, she just sees certain qualities of Mrs. Song through the red seal.
Lin Fufu put the red sleeve into the inner lining of his wrist, then turned and went out. Just as she was locking the door, Mrs. Qin came running in a hurry.
When Lin Fufu saw her running so fast, he laughed.
Miss Qin came here in such a hurry, so naturally she came to ask her for mossin powder.
She reopened the gate, and stood by the gate to wait for Mrs. Qin.
"Gospel, gospel... It's a good thing you haven't left yet!" Mrs. Qin started to yell before she approached, regardless of the occasional passers-by who looked at her in surprise.
"Mrs. Qin, please slow down." Lin Fufu smiled, then let her into the yard, stretched out his hand and led her into the house, "But the jasmine powder is sold out again?"
Mistress Qin took a deep breath, frowned and said, "Isn't that right! This time, no customers have bought bulk goods, but everyone has bought three or two boxes, and I don't know if I'm afraid to buy them in the future." It's not here, it's because I want to send someone I like."
"The sales are quite fast." Lin Fufu nodded and asked, "Then Miss Qin, do you know which wife is the one who buys the jasmine powder?"
Ms. Qin nodded, "Many of them are returning customers, most of them are wives of merchants."
"That's right, the wife of the merchant's family bought jasmine powder as a gift." Lin Fufu thought of this, and the smile on his face deepened.
This is a good sign. The wives of those merchants must not be giving simple gifts. In this way, it will be very beneficial for her to launch cosmeceuticals in the future.
At least this first step has been taken.
"If it's true what Madam said, then I'll wait for this jasmine powder to be sold to the whole of Dawei." Mrs. Qin smiled until her eyes narrowed into lines.
Lin Fufu said confidently: "Of course, when I make more useful rouge and gouache, Miss Qin, just wait until you get cramps while counting the silver."
"Okay, I'll wait!" Mrs. Qin replied cheerfully, then looked at Lin Fufu and said, "Then you have to give me a big bottle of jasmine powder now!"
Lin Fufu still had eight big bottles at home, so he said straightforwardly: "Here are two big bottles for you, you can carry them back home."
"Of course, I'll go back with two big bottles today. I'll come back tomorrow." Mrs. Qin knew that she still had them at home as soon as she heard Lin Fufu said so easily, and she was very happy.
Lin Fufu nodded, and said honestly: "I still have eight large porcelain vases at home. You can come and get them if you are convenient these days, or ask the waiter in the shop to get them."
"Don't! I'll come by myself. If I let them come, if I break it rashly, who will I cry to? Well, I'll get it by myself tomorrow." Lady Qin squinted her eyes and smiled, then Tell Lin Fufu: "Fufu, you have to hurry up and make more for me. I reckon that in the next few days, those noble people will think it is good, and it may not be necessary to buy in large quantities."
Lin Fufu nodded, calmly reassuring Mrs. Qin.
Ms. Qin thought of something, and she said to Lin Fufu: "Hey, yes, Gospel, two shopkeepers who opened a rouge gouache shop came to my shop yesterday to inquire about the source of jasmine powder. I will give you Tell me, after I sell it for another month, you can make more, and you can sell it to other cosmetic shops."
These words warmed Lin Fufu's heart. Mrs. Qin was really thinking about her.
"Let's talk about it, if you really want to sell it to other cosmetic shops, this product will also be sold to them in your shop, but I will add silver to the price of each box. If you sell a box, I will give you another tael of silver." Benefits." Lin Fufu said, she had thought about these things before.
Ms. Qin has made a lot of money from Lin Fufu's jasmine powder in the past few days. Now she is even happier to see Lin Fufu trusting her so much.
"Success, I'll sell it for you when the time comes, and I promise to make you a lot of money!" Lady Qin said with a smile.
Lin Fufu nodded with a smile, and then Mrs. Qin took out a bank note of three thousand taels of silver from her body and handed it to Lin Fufu, "Yesterday, there were seventy-two boxes of powder in the big porcelain vase with a blanket, so we should add more first." Give you some money, I can't let you lose."
Lin Fufu thought about it, and then took it. This time she did not refuse, but said: "Then you don't need to add money to the next few big bottles."
Miss Qin also had the same idea, so she smiled and said, "Then if there is more, it will be cheaper for me. If it is less, I will not lose money. Anyway, the money I have earned these days makes me laugh out of my dreams." /
Miss Qin is not exaggerating, the main reason is that the good reputation of this jasmine powder is gradually spreading, and the guests come here for the name, so there is no need for her to spend more money to sell it.
Lin Fufu thought that Mrs. Qin would take out several thousand taels of silver, and without blinking her eyes, she knew that although she was alone, she must have a lot of silver in her body.
Thinking that she will move to Qinglian County next year, she naturally wants to bring Mrs. Qin to the county, at least let her also buy a house and shop in the county.
In this case, it is to let a talent like Mrs. Qin who can manage the rouge and gouache business take root in the county, and then help her promote her cosmeceuticals...
After thinking about it carefully, Lin Fufu said to Mrs. Qin: "I plan to move to Qinglian County next spring. I have already bought a house and am saving money to buy a shop. I want to ask Qin Lady, would you like to go to the county with me?"
To Lin Fufu's surprise, Miss Qin didn't give up at all, but her eyes lit up.
"Hey, I've wanted to go to the county for a long time... The population of the county is more than ten times that of the town, and there are more rich people. Who doesn't want to go for business?" Mrs. Qin was excited Then the light in his eyes went out again, and he shook his head and said, "I don't know whose way you went to buy a house in the county, but I have no way."
Mistress Qin is telling the truth. In fact, she was able to buy a house in the county a few years ago. After several years of operation, it is also possible to buy a bigger shop in the county. But she really has no way out.
So, when Lin Fufu said that she bought a house in the county, she was really envious.
After listening to Mrs. Qin's words, Lin Fufu remembered Mrs. Jiang's old butler saying that Mrs. Jiang still had several properties in the county, and maybe there really was a house and shop suitable for Mrs. Qin.
So she looked at Mrs. Qin with bright eyes and said, "I do know someone who wants to start an industry in the county. I'll ask you first, and if there is one, I'll talk to you."
Lin Fufu intends to find Mrs. Jiang's old housekeeper for Mrs. Qin to find out if there is any suitable smaller house and shop for sale.
After all, Mrs. Qin is the only one now. For her future life or for the future retirement, she must be more willing to save more money.
When Mrs. Qin heard Lin Fufu's words, she stepped forward to hold her hand very moved, and said: "I didn't cultivate a good life in the first half of my life, but I met Fufu you in the second half of my life...you are so considerate of me. If you don't care too much, those nephews and nieces of my natal family can't compare!"
Until now, Mrs. Qin has a feeling for Lin Fufu that is similar to that of a relative.
When Lin Fufu heard her say this, he felt a little embarrassed. In fact, the reason why she helped Mrs. Qin in this way was because she liked her talent.
But she thought again, if Mrs. Qin is willing, when she gets old, she will take care of her and treat her like a relative.
Thinking of this, Lin Fufu felt that he was getting closer to Lady Qin.
The two chatted affectionately for a while, and Mrs. Qin carefully carried the two white porcelain bottles back.
Lin Fufu still plans to go to the Li Family Medical Center. Since Mrs. Qin expects that the jasmine powder will sell better in the next few days, she hastened to make a second batch of jasmine powder.
A porcelain bottle of jasmine powder can be sold for more than one thousand taels of silver. To be honest, this is the real money.
I don't know how many times this profit has been multiplied, and I am afraid that no one will believe it.
But the process of making jasmine powder is more complicated than Da Wei's process of making incense powder, so Lin Fufu can earn the money with peace of mind.
When she arrived at the Li Family Medical Center, Li Yi hurriedly greeted her when she saw her.
"Gospel, it's just in time for you to come. Last time you asked me to pay attention to the matter of jasmine seeds, I have some clues this morning. My Li family's medical center in Ning County happened to collect several hundred catties of newly picked jasmine seeds this year. White jasmine seeds, I plan to send a message to send them all to the town."
When Lin Fufu heard about Ning County, he remembered that Mrs. Song, the county magistrate of Ning County, invited her to have a drink, and immediately said: "No, I just want to go to Ning County in a few days, and I just happened to bring back those jasmine seeds. "
As soon as Li heard that she was going to Ning County, he asked in surprise: "Gospel, why do you go to Ning County so well?"
He subconsciously thought that it was because Lin Fufu disliked that the shops in Qinglian County were too expensive, so he chose to go to Ning County for the next best thing.
"Gospel, Ning County is not as rich as Qinglian County. Our Qinglian County is the most important county in the Northwest of the Great Wei Dynasty, and our Qingyang County is the first town in the Northwest. This is not just for fun. Ning County is more If you don’t go to Qinglian County, it’s wise to go to Qinglian County to open a restaurant.” Li Yi became anxious, and his voice also became urgent.
Seeing her nervousness, Lin Fufu smiled, "Brother Li, it's not that I want to open a restaurant in Ning County, I still have some knowledge about this."
When Li Yi heard that she was not going to open a restaurant in Ning County, he felt relieved, and raised his eyebrows and asked her: "Then what are you going to do in Ning County? Could it be that you are going to Ning County to collect jasmine seeds?"
"Ah, I'm going to Ning County to attend the third baptism of the grandson of the Ning County Prime Minister's family." After Lin Fufu finished speaking, he stared at Li Yi and asked, "Brother Li, you just said that I was going to Ning County Jasmine seeds, is Ning County rich in jasmine?"
"I also heard this from the old shopkeeper of our medical clinic early this morning. He said that the villagers in several villages in the western suburbs of Ning County are good at growing jasmine, and then sell jasmine flowers, roots and seeds to us who grow jasmine." In exchange for an income from the clinic." Li Yi explained to Lin Fufu seriously.
Lin Fufu knows that jasmine, roots and seeds can be used as medicine. Jasmine has the functions of promoting blood circulation, regulating menstruation, clearing heat and dampness, detoxifying and reducing swelling. And jasmine root is diuretic, purging heat, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. It has a good curative effect on acute arthritis, stranguria, leukorrhagia, lung fatigue and hematemesis, carbuncle and so on.
As for the seeds of jasmine, they have a miraculous effect on treating skin sores, so it is normal for those villagers to grow jasmine and sell them for money.
"I see." Lin Fufu said with a grin. Since there are people who plant jasmine, at least this season you don't have to worry about jasmine seeds.
But it also gave her a reminder that she will also plant jasmine herself in the future, no matter if it is white jasmine or purple jasmine.
In addition, jasmine flowers, roots, seeds, and even leaves can be used as medicine, regardless of the soil and climate, as long as the water costs are well managed, it will be easy to feed.
"Oh, by the way, Gospel, you said just now that you were going to participate in the third baptism of the grandson of the Ningxian county magistrate's family? Then how did you know the Ningxian county magistrate?" Li Yi was very strange about this, he had never heard of it Lin Fufu heard about it and knew the magistrate of Ning County or his family members.
Lin Fufu saw that he had misunderstood, so he told Li Yi that he was hit by a donkey cart by Mrs. Ningxian's wife's carriage on the way to town yesterday.
He also told Li Yi that there was the eldest daughter-in-law of the county magistrate of Ning County in the carriage, and she was about to give birth, and she was the one to pick it up.
Li Yi suddenly realized this time, and laughed and teased Lin Fufu, "What kind of luck is this for you? On the way to the town, you can meet the official grandma giving birth, and you were the one to help deliver the baby."
Lin Fufu shook his head and said helplessly, "Isn't it? My luck is so good that it explodes."
Li Yi laughed, thought for a while and said, "My master also went to Ning County to see the family member of the Song County Prime Minister, and I also went with him. Do you want me to accompany you on the day when the Gospel comes?"
Lin Fufu looked up at him and asked, "Do you have time to go?"
Li Yi said with a smile: "My eighth uncle is here. With him helping my master, I can be lazy." Then he looked at Lin Fufu seriously: "I am mainly afraid that you, a girl, will come to Song County It is inconvenient to be unfamiliar with the place in the Chengfu."
Lin Fufu knew what he meant, so it was inconvenient, it was obviously because she was afraid that she would be bullied by going to the official residence of a county magistrate as an orphan, right?
If he, the young master of the Li family, accompanied her, the Song family would have paid more attention to her.
"Okay, then I'm going, I'll call you to come with me." Naturally, Lin Fufu would not reject his kindness, and she also thought that Li Yi was very considerate. A person who steps down or sees people as low as a dog.
"Then it's settled." Li Yiyi turned around and went to the cabinet to drag out a big brown cloth bag, and said to Lin Fufu, "I bought it from several other medical centers in the town. You take back the purple jasmine seeds first. I will help you find out where there are still jasmine seeds."
Lin Fufu quickly thanked him, and looked at the big bag of mirabilis jasmine seeds and smiled. This big bag weighs at least thirty-four catties, at least it is enough for her to make jasmine powder this time.
"Gospel, if there is nothing else, I will go to work. I will ask the drug boy to help you carry this bag of jasmine seeds to your house." Li said.
Lin Fufu thanked him again, and took the medicine boy carrying jasmine seeds back to his house first. The medicine boy put the jasmine seeds in the yard and left. When he left, Lin Fufu gave him a dozen or so big coins.
For the people of the Li Family Medical Center, Lin Fufu has always been very generous, and they also respect Lin Fufu very much. If Lin Fufu finds them, they are very willing to help.
Lin Fufu dragged the bag of mirabilis seeds back to her "laboratory". After taking a deep breath, she began to prepare materials to make jasmine powder.
Osmanthus stamens are bought in grocery stores, and only osmanthus stamens are sold in grocery stores because some rich families want to buy osmanthus stamens to make pastries, such as osmanthus cakes.
Lin Fufu and Sister Lin Fen walked through the street a few days ago, and bought it by the way. Then there are a lot of white porcelain bottles and so on.
The bad jasmine seeds are available now.
After all the materials were prepared and put in front of him, Lin Fufu began to follow the steps of making jasmine powder last time.
This lasted all afternoon, and Lin Fufu made twenty porcelain bottles of jasmine powder before stopping.
She did the math, a large porcelain bottle of jasmine powder can be sold for 1,400 taels of silver, and she still has twenty-six large porcelain bottles of jasmine powder at home, so the total is 36,400 taels One hundred taels of silver.
Although this amount is not much different from the 45,000 taels of silver that bought Mrs. Jiang's eight big shops.
But the premise is that each of these twenty-six porcelain bottles of jasmine powder contains seventy boxes, and there are a total of 1,820 boxes. One hundred and sixty boxes of jasmine powder. If there were no special circumstances, it would probably not take a month or two to sell out the nearly 2,000 boxes of jasmine powder.
But Mrs. Jiang's old housekeeper is only willing to wait for a month and a few days, after which time he will sell the eight big shops separately.
Therefore, Lin Fufu was under a lot of pressure to save money.
But fortunately, the income from small snacks has been added recently, plus the income from fresh broad beans and bean sprouts, as well as the income from preserved eggs and preserved eggs, plus the income from cabbage, it should not be difficult to save energy Forty-five thousand taels of silver!
"Gospel, open the door!" Just as Lin Fufu made the jasmine powder, he heard Liu Qin yelling to open the door outside.
Why is Liu Qin here again?
She hurriedly washed her hands, wiped her face with a wet towel, and hurried out to open the door for him.
