Chapter 229 Chen Zhuangtou
After hearing this, several people became even more excited. Village Chief Yao expressed his determination and said, "County Lord, as long as these workshops can be built, we are willing to do anything you ask us to do."
Village Chief Liu also said: "You don't have to pay for picking grass for pigs, just give us dividends, haha!"
Zheng Sisi said: "I will give it to you if I say so. It is the same at Wohushan Farm. This is what you deserve.
Since you are willing to build a workshop, I will arrange it. You can first ask where there are chicks and ducklings for sale. The pig farm will be built after the master of Wohushan Farm is done. You just need to ask for piglets first. "
Village Chief Yao asked again: "County Lord, are you still going to buy chicken and duck eggs?"
Zheng Sisi said, "Of course we will accept them if there are any. We will pay the market price, but they must be fresh eggs. We will not accept those that have been stored for a long time. Let Aunt Liu and the aunt of Village Chief Yao take care of this matter. Aunt Niu and others will also need to help at the restaurant."
The two aunts immediately stood up and said, "County Lady, we must keep a close watch. We will spread the news when we return. We don't have it in our village, but other villages have it. We just need them to send it to our village. It will take them a whole day to sell it in the county town. I'm sure everyone will be willing to accept it here. Haha."
Zheng Sisi called Chen Zicai, the scholar and farmer brought by Uncle Ma, and told him: "From now on, the village will be under your management, and you will be the head of the village.
You can write and do math, and you also know how to do farm work like growing vegetables as Uncle Ma taught you. I will build a few workshops in the future, so you have to keep the accounts clear.
Now I will teach Aunt Liu how to buy chickens and ducks, and you will help with the accounting."
Chen Zicai was stunned. The county lord suddenly gave him such an important task, and he had to manage the entire farm and several workshops. He was stunned by the news.
"Chen Zhuangtou, Chen Zhuangtou, Chen..." Village Chief Liu called several times before Chen Zicai came back to his senses. He looked at the village chief Liu who called him blankly.
Zheng Sisi held her forehead with her hand. Chen Zicai was shocked by what she said. She said, "Chen Zhuangtou, did you hear what I just said?"
Chen Zicai quickly bowed and said, "County Lady, I heard you. Thank you for your trust and promotion. I will do my best to manage the manor."
Zheng Sisi nodded and took out three hundred taels of silver from her sleeve pocket and gave it to Chen Zicai. The purchase of eggs and chicken eggs for the farm requires money. I will arrange a carriage for the farm, and you can go to the county bank to exchange some small change.
Chen Zicai took the banknote with trembling hands. He wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Zheng Sisi, but thinking that Zheng Sisi didn't like this kind of etiquette, he cupped his hands and bowed deeply to Zheng Sisi to express his gratitude.
Zheng Sisi said, "There haven't been any side dishes recently. Chen Zhuangtou, you and Uncle Ma can take people to plant a few rows of radishes and cabbages, just like I planted vegetables. These two kinds of vegetables grow fast and can be provided to the restaurant in a few days."
Chen Zhuangtou agreed, "Okay, County Master, I'll arrange it right away."
After arranging the work, Zheng Sisi led the staff to the county restaurant. Not so many people went today, and a carriage was left for Chen Zicai, and there were more than 20 people in the group.
It was already past nine o'clock when we arrived at the restaurant. It was already open and the waiters were cleaning diligently.
Zheng Sisi took a few maids and aunts to the kitchen. The ingredients had been purchased as instructed last night and were piled on the table.
It seems that they remembered what I said to the chefs yesterday. Zheng Sisi was very satisfied. It was good that they remembered to make changes.
Because they were making the same dish as yesterday, everyone was familiar with the process and could do it quickly. Zheng Sisi did not participate in the preparations. She arranged things and went out.
Zheng Sisi found the third prince: "Sheng Zhen, I need to go to the medicine shop. Can you accompany me?"
The third prince left his two brothers behind and drove away in the carriage with the breeze, leaving a few people looking at the carriage going away and sighing that the third prince valued women more than brothers.
