 Chapter 198: It's Foolish Not to Make Money When You Have Silver

"The Xie family has many restaurants, whether selling to others in the capital or selling them in their own shops, it requires a considerable quantity."


"So, there is no need to worry about not being able to sell the pickled vegetables in the early stages."


"Moreover, pickled vegetables like salted vegetables can be preserved for a long time."


"Mother, would you be willing to watch silver slip away?" Ye Muyu not only felt that the manpower in the old house is not enough to make a profit from selling pickled vegetables in time but also didn't want others to say that Chu Heng was unfilial. After all, Chu Heng had been exceptionally good to her and she naturally wanted to repay him.


"That won't do. It's foolish not to make money when you have silver. After what you just said, I think it's necessary to buy someone to help." 


"Is it expensive to hire someone?" Chu Liushi asked.


"Mother, Husband has discussed it with me. Since we have added someone to our family, the old house certainly cannot be short-handed."


"Now that Mother has agreed, Husband will go pick someone. Let's choose a servant woman to help Mother with feeding the pigs and ducks, so you can free up your hands to make pickled vegetables."


"This pickled vegetable is easy to preserve and it can also add flavor when eaten in winter. Therefore, in winter we can sell pickled vegetables to places farther away and you can make as much as you want." Ye Muyu reminded.


Chu Liushi nodded in agreement after hearing this. She had long been tempted when she heard that a small jar could be sold for two hundred wen.


According to Ye Muyu's statement, the cost was about thirty wen per jar, so selling one jar could earn one hundred and seventy wen. If ten jars were sold, it would be over one tael.


The jar was small and three or four cabbages were enough.


In this way, she could easily make a hundred jars, which would be over ten taels.


If she could do it long-term, the money earned would be more than what the family earned from selling grains in five years.


Chu Liushi understood the income involved, so she is not willing to miss such a good opportunity to make money.


"Is it a waste to hire someone?" Chu Liushi instinctively wanted to save money.


"Mother, don't worry. When you think you don't need them anymore, just send them back here. Whether you sell them or keep them, it's easy to handle." Ye Muyu reassured.


"That's true. If you can hire workers, you can also hire short-term workers and it's cheaper." Chu Liushi, after thinking it through, no longer refused "Alright, I'll discuss this with your father when I go back."


"Ah, I won't say more. I'm going back to check on the meal." Chu Liushi turned around and went to the kitchen.


Ye Muyu didn't stop her and went to the East Wing to call Ziluo to eat.


Lunch was very sumptuous, basically all nutritiou and there were some nourishing medicinal herbs in it.


Ye Muyu could tell that it was bought by Chu Heng. She always drank a bowl of soup before eating, not wanting to waste their kindness.


In the afternoon, Ye Muyu taught Chu Liushi and Hu Shi how to make herbal tea in the kitchen.


Chu Heng took Zhang Shu and Luchuan to borrow tables from the clan and neighbors.


They borrowed more than ten tables.


There were quite a few guests coming tomorrow. In addition to the family members, there were also Ye Muyu's family, Chu Liushi's family, and even the married daughters of the Chu family, etc.


In this way, the number of people is naturally quite large.


In addition, there were also the village head and others from the village who had good relationships.


More than ten tables were considered few.


In the afternoon, they began to prepare the dishes, preparing the eight dishes needed for tomorrow.


Chu Heng directly invited the best cook in the village to come to their house to prepare the dishes, starting in the afternoon.


Dinner was eaten before it got dark.


Chu Heng took out the clothes of Chu Liushi and Chu Zhiwen.


"Mother, these are for you and Father to wear tomorrow. Be careful on the way." Chu Heng said.
