Chapter 465 This Grandma Can Also Be Versailles
The key point is that I feel that his eldest son is very tactless at this moment. Look at what he said.
His eldest son actually said, "Dad, why are you in such a hurry? Let's build a new workshop next spring."
Tang Guangshen really wanted to slap his eldest son. Is building a workshop the same as building a workshop?
This year, if everyone has time, please help build the workshop. Next year, everyone will be working. Who has time to help? The key is to take a look at Brother Meng's workshop.
The design was also designed by the craftsmen brought by the Ministry of Industry. Although it may not be as big as the workshop west of Jiuzu River, the quality is not inferior at all!
Shen Youyou came at this time: "Master Guangshen, why do you look so sad even though you are about to make a lot of money?"
Before Tang Guangshen could say anything, his eldest son directly exposed his shortcomings: "I envy Meng Bo's new workshop."
"I'm not envious of the new workshop, I'm envious of the drawings provided by the workshop's engineering department."
"That's nothing. We can modify the blueprint of his workshop to make it suitable for our meat workshop. I'll take care of it."
Shen Youyou patted her chest proudly and followed Grandpa Guangshen and his son into the meat workshop, which was the two small courtyards in the original village.
The people working in the meat workshop are actually between 35 and 45 years old.
If it were in later generations, this age would still be in the prime of life, but now some people who are 35 years old are already grandmothers.
But because of seniority, we can't just call everyone grandpa and grandma. She knows what everyone should be called. She basically knows the names of everyone she has talked to and who they are from the same family. After all, she has a photographic memory.
But Tangjia Village is so big, and there are many people who look familiar to Shen Youyou but she has never spoken to them.
So, she called everyone, "Grandpas, grandmas, aunts, uncles, are you jealous of others moving into new workshops?"
How could he not be jealous? They were all workshops in the village, and they had already upgraded their shotguns to cannons, while he and others had moved from Guangshen's brick house to a shabby mud-brick house.
This is also because Tang Guangshen's family can no longer let go, and now there are a hundred people in the meat workshop.
But although everyone was envious, they were not depressed when Shen Youyou asked this.
Some grandmothers also said cheerfully: "No matter where you work, it's work. As long as you can earn money, it's fine. Let's see what's real."
"Yes, our village will be better and better in the future. Now I am worried about whether I will have to spend money to hire people to farm the land next year."
"What do you mean?"
"It's not that I can earn more from working than from farming, so I can't bear to give up my job and start farming. The key point is that in my family, except for the half-grown children, my wife and son all work in the workshop."
Shen Youyou was amused. She didn't expect this grandma to be so Versailles. She said, "Yes, so there's no need to envy them for moving to a new workshop.
Let me do some calculations for you in secret. In our meat workshop, one person can make about 70 kilograms of stewed meat or luncheon meat a day, and can earn 2 cents per kilogram. For those of you present here, you can earn 140 cents per day.
But the work in our meat workshop is easier than that in the compressed biscuit workshop, and we earn more than those people in the vermicelli workshop."
Tang Guangshen's wife now understood what Shen Youyou was going to do, and she sighed in her heart that the little girl was really thoughtful.
I'm worried that the workers in these meat workshops might feel disappointed when they see others moving into new workshops, so I came here specifically to counsel them.
She was very cooperative and asked mysteriously, "How much does it cost to work in the vermicelli workshop?"
"Over at the vermicelli workshop, the highest earner is the one who makes jelly, who only earns 120 coins a day. At the end of the month, we earn 600 coins more than them.
So, let's look for practical things, and earn an extra 600 wen, so why not do something else?"
Since Grandma Guangshen has set the stage, how could Shen Youyou not go along with it?
Sure enough, after Shen Youyou finished settling the accounts, everyone felt more motivated to work.
Uncle Guangshen also encouraged everyone: "Not only do we earn more than over there, but we can also live in the new workshop in the future. In the spring of next year, I will find a construction team and we will build a new workshop as well."
"Okay, let's work hard and build a new workshop next year."
Now one only needs to listen to the loudness of the sound to know that everyone’s spirits are lifted.
Shen Youyou and Tang Guangshen entered the room and asked another question:
"Uncle Guangshen, your family doesn't have enough pigs for us. Have you contacted other large pig farmers?"
"Don't worry, I'll take care of this. All these years of work are not in vain."
After saying that, he stood up and took out the agreement he had signed with others to show Shen Youyou: "Look, one and a half taels of silver for a pig, all of which are over 200 kilograms.
But when we make stewed meat and luncheon meat, we use meat.
But bones, internal organs, pig trotters, pig blood and so on are a huge loss.
We did not produce much before, so we could still make these for ourselves, but from now on, if we kill fifty or sixty a day, we won’t be able to eat them all.”
"What about the organs of the pigs we slaughtered today?"
"It's still piled up in our yard. We haven't brought it here yet. We're thinking of cooking it in this yard so that the smell won't come from other places!"
Is this a problem for Shen Youyou?
She said: "Have you collected the pig blood? In the future, the pig blood will be directly used to make blood sausage, blood tofu, pig liver, pig stomach, pig heart, pig lung, pig head, pig ears, and pig tail.
Even pig skin can be made into pig skin jelly in winter and braised pig skin rolls in summer.
They are all sorted and packed in vacuum bags separately, and attention should also be paid to preservation. If you don’t know how to stew, let my mother teach you.”
"She knows how to stew. My daughter-in-law has definitely inherited your mother's true skills."
Shen Youyou was amused by Grandpa Guangshen's words. His daughter-in-law was a real foodie who couldn't live without meat.
It is said that she was a beauty in the surrounding villages at that time, and many people went to propose marriage to her. In the end, she took a fancy to Guangshen Ye’s youngest son. Later, people found out that the main reason was that his family had many pigs and they had no shortage of meat.
When the Jiu clan began to build old earthen houses, the aunt watched every day and finally succeeded in learning from them.
"That's fine. You can also hire some unemployed people in the village to clean the internal organs. The dirt must be cleaned up.
Especially the pig's tail, pig's feet, pig's head, and pig's ears. Not a single hair should be left. When we make food, even if we are not selling it to soldiers, we should be more particular about it."
Tang Guangshen naturally knew that cooking required attention. From the beginning, food hygiene was something Shen Youyou repeatedly emphasized, but he still had other questions:
"Can the imperial court accept these people? It probably won't be easy to sell them to others!"
Shen Youyou was not worried about this issue at all. She told directly:
“As long as our stew is delicious and people try it, word will spread slowly. What we need to think about now is how to let everyone know that these offal and scraps are the good stuff.
For example, pig liver can replenish blood, improve eyesight, and cure night blindness. Do you think soldiers would eat it?"
“Is it really effective?”
Tang Guangzheng's expression seemed to be saying, although I don't understand medical knowledge, don't try to fool me.
