After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land

Chapter 312: The First Batch of Cloth

Wei Xin's face turned red with excitement. He returned to his seat amid everyone's thanks.

"Everyone, go back. Chicken plague doesn't wait for anyone. If we deal with it early, more chickens can survive."

The villagers took their stools and discussed in groups of three or five, walking home as they talked.

Wei Xin and Ye Dalang went to Ji Village according to the original plan.

The Wei family did not raise chickens or ducks. The two old people were old and could not eat much. Wei Xin raised a lot, and every time he went back, he would bring some back, which was enough to last for a long time.

Ye Qing went to the farm. Wei Xin was not there, so she helped to look after it.

The farm’s difficulties have not yet passed, and they will not feel at ease until all the chickens are well.

This time Ye Qing brought a lot of garlic and ginger. He cut the ginger into slices and put some in the feed.

Chop the garlic twice with a knife and throw it over to them to eat by themselves.

The water the chickens drank these two days was all boiled water, which was then allowed to cool down before being given to them.

After finishing all these, a whole morning passed. Ye Qing did not go home, but had a meal with the workers at the farm.

After the hottest time of noon, a few hens that had been listless in the morning also stood up tremblingly and went to look for food.

Ye Qing watched from the side, not daring to disturb them at all. He watched the chickens slowly eat their fill before he moved his numb legs.

Ye Qing felt that their prescription must be effective, and the family basically suffered no loss this time.

Ye Qing inspected the farm again. All the chickens and ducks were very energetic. He gave a few instructions and then went home in the sunset.

When she got home, Wei Xin and Ye Dalang had already returned.

"Qingya, how is the farm today?" Wei Xin asked with concern.

"They are fine. I see that those with the most serious injuries are recovering well. I fed them some ginger and garlic today, and it seems to be having a positive effect."

Wei Xin was always thinking about his home in Ji Village. It was already afternoon when he finished teaching them the folk remedies for treating chicken plague in Ji Village.

After dinner, Wei Xin went to the farm with Ye Dalang again. She wanted to see it with her own eyes so that she could sleep well at night.

Ye Qing followed for a few more days, and the farm was basically restored, so she also had time to work in the workshop.

She hasn't been to several workshops recently. The managers know she is busy and haven't come to see her.

She went to Zui Xiang Fang first to prepare this year's celebratory wine so that it could be delivered to the restaurant in winter.

Now celebratory wine has become one of the most popular wines in the workshop. It is cheap and tastes good.

"Sister-in-law Xiufen, thank you for your hard work during this period." Ye Qing entered the workshop and saw Xiufen steaming wine in front of the stove at first sight.

"Qingya is here, and all the problems on the farm have been solved." Xiufen was a little surprised to see Ye Qing.

"Everything is done. My sister-in-law will take care of the rest. Have you encountered any problems with the winery recently? I can help take a look."

When Ye Xuan heard that Ye Qing had arrived, he came out of the wine cellar and went to the front yard.

"Qingya is here. It's hot outside. You and sister-in-law can talk in the room."

Ye Qing took Xiufen's arm and walked into the house intimately.

As soon as she entered the house, Xiufen had a sad look on her face.

"Qingya, I heard that a wine shop opened in Wu'an City and invited a wine master from the prefectural city to brew wine. It may threaten our business."

"Tell me in detail." This was the first time Ye Qing heard of this.

Ye Xuan knew more about it. "Master Liu saw that our business was good, so he invited a master chef to open a shop. They just opened their shop and are competing with us on price. Each type of wine is a little lower than ours."

Ye Qing looked at Xiufen and said, "Sister-in-law, you later developed several types of wine that you can't find anywhere else."

"No, the new ones I researched have very common ingredients, but they use different yeast. Others don't have it. They are inherited from my family."

Ye Qing made up his mind, "Except for the types that everyone brews, look at their prices, Ye Xuan, you set the price yourself, the prices of the types that we have exclusively won't drop at all."

Ye Xuan was a little hesitant, "This will cause loss of customers, theirs is cheaper, so everyone buys from them."

"No," Ye Qing explained to the two, "The reputation of our wine has spread. People who like our wine will still buy it regardless of the price change. Although the price reduction can retain some of the original customers, it will be impossible to raise the price in the future."

Ye Xuan suddenly realized that there was another reason.

Ye Qing asked for the details of the wine cellar and the shipping records of the last few months. She wanted to see the sales of each type of wine.

Xiufen didn't understand the accounting issues, so she didn't bother them and went out to see the new wine she had developed.

Ye Qing was using an abacus to calculate the inventory of each type of wine, while Ye Xuan was explaining the problem Ye Qing encountered. The two of them worked in perfect harmony, and it didn't take long for them to calculate the recent profits.

The wine workshop is the second most profitable workshop, and the mosquito coil workshop is the most profitable.

Although mosquito coils are cheap, they are sold in large quantities. Every household can use mosquito coils and can afford them.

After finishing the business at the winery, Ye Qing went to the weaving workshop.

She hasn't been here for more than ten days, and the first batch has probably been woven, so she wants to see what the finished product looks like.

Before Ye Qing entered the door, he ran into Ye Fan.

"Brother Ye Fan, where are you going? You look so flustered."

"I'll come find you." Ye Fan looked happy.

"Looking for me, what do you want from me?"

"The first batch is out, and we're all waiting for you to come and see it."

"It came out so soon. I calculated the date and it's going to be in these two days." Ye Qing was very surprised.

The two walked towards the workshop, and one of them noticed Ye Fan walking in front of them.

"Ye Fan, why are you back?"

"What a coincidence, I ran into Qingya when I went out." Ye Fan turned sideways, revealing Ye Qing behind him.

"You are all here. Where is the cloth? My heart is beating a little fast." Ye Qing's steps were a little unsteady.

Ye Qing's words made everyone laugh, "Don't get excited, we will weave more and more in the future."

Ye Qing also laughed out loud. She walked to the loom and touched the white cloth, which felt as soft as white clouds.

"This cloth is well woven. It will definitely look great when dyed."

Gao Hui also couldn't stop smiling. She only received monthly wages for the past two months and had little production, so she was very anxious.

Ye Yuan was also very happy. He had not had much to do in the workshop in the past two months. The most he did was help mediate conflicts.

The first batch has been produced, and there will be fewer in the future. As long as there is cloth, you can make money.

"Everyone will get a red envelope today, and everyone will be happy." Ye Qing hopes that everyone will continue to work hard.

"Thank you, Qingya."

The workshop became more lively. Originally, only the people who wove the cloth were happy, but now everyone was happy.

Everyone in Gao Hui's group had red faces, and everyone in the workshop was praising them.

Jiang Jun and Xiaoya also had smiles on their faces, but they felt a sense of urgency in their hearts because their group had not yet produced any results.
