After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 704

Chapter 704 New Products

Liu Ji got up and went to open the door. When the door opened, it was Liu Fei.

“What are you doing here?” Liu Jidi glanced at Liu Fei with his peach eyes. He was holding a basic lady's box in his hand without taking anything, and his eyes were filled with disgust.

Liu Fei gave his third brother a look, and squeezed in through the door with a box and an umbrella, "I'm not looking for you, I'm looking for my sister-in-law."

Looking up, he saw food being placed in the hall. Liu Fei smiled and said hello: "He's eating right now!"

The children stood up in surprise and shouted in unison: "Uncle!"

Qin Yao also welcomed him to the corridor outside the hall and asked him, "Have you eaten?"

“No!” Liu Fei smiled and put the umbrella on the porch. As expected, he heard his third sister-in-law asking Awang to get the dishes and chopsticks for him. He looked back and raised his eyebrows at Liu Ji proudly.

Liu Ji clicked his tongue, and saw Liu Fei was about to enter the hall, so he quickly stopped him, "You're just going in with all the water in your body? You have to wash the blankets in the room if you step on them!"

He first dragged the person into his room and tidied him up, then gave Liu Fei his old but clean shoes to put on, and then led the person into the dining room.

Liu Feixiao complained in a low voice, "I'm so particular."

But putting on clean shoes and wiping the rain off my body made me feel much more comfortable.

Liu Fei's seat has been added to the table, so you don't have to be polite. As soon as you sit down, you will continue to pick up your bowls and chopsticks and start eating.

Liu Ji bumped Liu Fei's shoulder, "Will you sleep at my house tonight?"

Qin Yao stared at Liu Ji speechlessly. It was already dark and raining, so it would be unreasonable to drive Liu Fei back to sleep.

"You can rest in the guest house at the back tonight." Qin Yao said to Liu Fei, slightly raising her chin and asking him to eat, and she could not refuse.

Liu Fei agreed and moved his stool towards Awang, bound to draw a line between himself and his brother.

Liu Ji: "."

They didn't talk about anything during the meal. After dinner, Liu Fei took the box and went to the flower hall with Qin Yao to talk.

Others in the family should stay away and not disturb him.

Liu Fei already knew about Liu Ji's application for the position of servant of the Imperial Prefecture. He was concerned about it. He learned that Liu Ji adapted well, so he stopped paying more attention.

He opened the box he brought and placed the letter inside and a stack of money notes wrapped in oil paper on the small table in Qin Yao's hand.

“Third sister-in-law, this is the profit from the shop in the past three months, as well as the letter sent by Song Yu from the village. Take a look.”

Since entering Beijing, Qin Yao has not received any news from home. When she saw a letter from Song Yu, she happily opened it and checked it.

The letter said that everything was fine at home. The stationery factory had replaced a few lazy people and recruited a new group of people.

Attached is a personal basic information form for newly recruited workers.

Qin Yao looked at her watch. The names, ages, places of origin and other information of each person were recorded. Most of them were from Kaiyang County, and only one was from outside.

Eight people in total, four women and four men.

Qin Yao smiled, and it seemed that she had implemented the principle of ladies first as she said.

Song Yu also said in the letter that the design department of the stationery factory, at Qiao Yun's suggestion, had recruited two new design apprentices.

And these two apprentices were the scholars who rented a house in the village.

Both of them are talented people with superb painting skills.

In Qiao Yun's words, the aesthetic is very unique and can add different fresh inspirations to the design department.

I also brought along two original design drawings of the suitcase.

After the stationery factory managers made a decision, they decided to designate the two suitcases in the picture as the new autumn products. Qin Yao was asked for his final opinion and whether he agreed.

Liu Fei said: "I have seen this picture and think it is very good. The shopkeeper of Fulong Trading Company also thinks it is good. We have always sold wooden boxes in our store, but this is the first time I have brought a suitcase."

"And the leather box is much lighter than the wooden box. As for the price, I need you to come." Qin Yao was looking at the two new drawings. When she heard Liu Fei's words, she nodded, "Let me take a look at the cost first. "

Song Yu did things properly. New products were placed on the upper floor. He prepared a stack of materials. Qian Wang and Liu Zhong wrote down the purchase categories and suppliers in detail.

Costs are clear at a glance.

Although the leather is not cheap, it does not need to be inlaid with various kinds of jade and jewelry. The total price is 20% cheaper than the lady's box.

Leather was hard to find, so Liu Zhong went to the northern states and finally found a stable sheepskin supplier.

There are two new leather suitcases, one large and one small.

The smaller one is smaller than the lady's box. It uses wood as the main frame and leather as the dividing layer between the surface and the inside.

Because the sheepskin is soft, the interior partitions of this small suitcase are also made more detailed. Not only does it have a storage area for daily necessities, it also has a jewelry compartment.

The larger one is larger than the Shenli Book Box, and is close to the cabinets used by ordinary people, but with the addition of the pulleys and levers of the Shenli Book Box.

Qin Yao thought to herself, isn't this just a modern trolley suitcase?

And when you look at the layering in the picture, it looks more like it.

Even more high-end than modern luggage compartments.

The box is divided into four main parts, one is for clothing, one is for shoes and socks, one is for accessories, and there is also an area for the four treasures of the study and books.

Each area has been meticulously stored. Pens have pen cases, ink has ink cartridges, belts have special belt compartments, and shoes have high and short layered partitions.

Qin Yao read the letter written by Song Yu again.

The letter said that this large suitcase was designed by the two new scholars. It was said that if students from all over the country could use such a suitcase when they were rushing for exams, they would be able to reach the exam venue smoothly.

Spring Festival has been scheduled for early March next year. If candidates want to go to Beijing to take the exam, they will have to leave this winter at the latest.

In order to avoid the severe cold in winter, most people choose to go to Beijing in autumn to prepare for spring in advance.

This large suitcase is on the upper bunk at this time, just enough to catch the heavy traffic of thousands of students going to Beijing to take exams.

Because the leather materials were limited, the first batch of goods could only produce 2,000 suitcases and 300 official boxes.

Yes, both the small and large suitcases have names.

The reason why the official box is called the official box is because its customers are among the officials in the upper court in Beijing.

As for the suitcase, it is even simpler. Practicality is the main thing. The luggage is naturally called a suitcase.

"They did a good job." Qin Yao put down Song Yu's letter with appreciation, picked up the two drawings, put a big tick on the drawings with a cinnabar pen, and wrote two numbers quickly.

One sixty-six, one eighty-eight.

Liu Fei couldn't help but feel a little excited and hurriedly put away the drawings carefully. Early tomorrow morning he would ask the **** agency to use flying pigeons to quickly deliver the news to Kaiyang County.

After finishing the matter of new products, Qin Yao looked at the thick stack of money bills strangely.

This time the income is as much as 15,000 taels. After 30% is sent to the eldest princess's house, there should be 10,500 left.

Give Liu Fei a fraction of 500, and the amount sent to her should be 10,000 taels.

but!

There are 14,500 taels of money wrapped in oil paper.

Qin Yao frowned immediately, "What's going on? Didn't the money go out?"

Liu Fei suddenly stood up and nodded to Qin Yao anxiously.
