Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 598 Measuring the Land

"Well, it doesn't matter if it's not enough. Let's work overtime tonight and complete tomorrow's 6000-jin order first.

Although they said in advance when they placed the order that the goods might not be delivered at the same time, we will still try our best to catch up.

The difference is not that big, and it will be hard to say if I don’t give it to anyone.”

Juxiang also agreed, "I think so too. It's mainly because I wasted some time yesterday, otherwise the time wouldn't be so tight.

However, ma'am, you don't know that our family is now very famous in the county, and it is a good reputation.

Since the imperial edict came down yesterday, people on the streets have been talking about you, saying that you are extremely selfless and a good person.

Before, people didn’t know that the method of making fertilizer was proposed by you. Now that everyone knows it, they go to our shop to buy things to support you.

Yesterday, all the mountain product shops and taverns were packed.

All the goods in the mountain product shops are sold out, and the wine shops have received many new orders for sweet potato wine."

Xu Han really didn't know about this. She had been busy from yesterday to today and had no spare time to take care of other things.

Hearing what Juxiang said, he couldn't help but worry, "Ah? Is it that exaggerated? But people have ordered sweet potato wine, have you told them that we don't have it in stock?"

"We also said that the production process of sweet potato wine is complicated, and if you order now, you may not receive it before the New Year.

But they were not in a hurry at all and insisted on making a reservation. I had no choice but to re-register them.

Here, you see, all the goods from yesterday are here, they are all small orders, and the total is 1086 kilograms."

Xu Han took it and looked at it. Fortunately, there were not many and it could be finished in a day or two.

"Well, it's not a lot anyway, so just order it! You guys should work harder before the New Year and work overtime to make more.

I guess there will be more big orders coming in later.”

Today, the imperial envoy took away a lot of sweet potato wine. Sweet potato wine has a strong taste and I think many people will like it.

Especially since the current emperor says it is good, others will definitely want to try it too.

Once they find out where this sweet potato wine comes from, they will definitely come to buy it.

In this way, the sales volume of sweet potato wine will probably be even greater. It seems that we have to hurry up and build the new workshop, otherwise the production will not be able to keep up.

Although Xu Han's status is different now, he did not immediately put on airs and was still busy with everyone as usual.

The people in the temporary workshop had all been with Xu Han for a long time and knew her personality, so they didn't show any special respect to her, and the atmosphere between them was quite harmonious.

In this way, Xu Han was busy in the workshop all day and only started walking home when the sun set.

When Xu Han returned home, Lu Chuan was already sitting in the main hall drinking tea and resting.

Seeing her come back, he quickly poured another cup of tea and handed it to her. "It's cold today, why are you still busy so late?"

Xu Han took the teacup and took a sip. "I have nothing to do, so I'll just stay there for a while.

After what happened yesterday, business in the shop has improved.

The inventory in the workshop is tight, and it seems that there is not enough space. We need to hurry up and prepare to build a workshop."

"Well, I went to measure the land today. The county magistrate was quite considerate. The area that was enclosed is far more than 1000 acres.

The area you chose yesterday was not large enough, so the county magistrate decided to include all the surrounding areas in the area, with a beginning and an end, covering a large area.

In addition to the place you chose yesterday, the intersection where we go down the mountain every time was also specially circled out for us by the county magistrate. It was not included in the one thousand acres.

There is no way to grow crops in that location, so it will just be left there. They said it would be better to build us a house instead.”

"Well, if he gives it to us, we'll take it. The emperor means the same thing anyway, so if you really think about it, we're not getting any advantage."

Lu Chuan nodded. "That's what I thought. I just want to tell you that you should not feel any psychological pressure about this place."

Xu Han smiled and waved her hands, "Hahaha, that won't happen."

Then he continued, "By the way, Yunyun should be here almost tomorrow. If Yunyun comes back tomorrow, we can go back to the mountains the day after tomorrow. I've been away from home for a long time, and I really miss it.

There's nothing to do here anyway, the workshop and the shop are stable now, and we don't need to keep an eye on them all the time."

"Okay, if you want to go back, we can go back. The New Year is coming soon. We have been living in the county this year, and I don't know how the New Year's goods are prepared at home."

Xu Han's eyes lit up, "Oh, right, we haven't started preparing for this year's New Year's goods yet, let's go shopping together tomorrow afternoon.

I also bought some gifts for the servants during the Chinese New Year, otherwise I won’t have enough time.”

There is no girl who doesn't like shopping. So Xu Han took the initiative to accept this task. Nothing can be more stress-relieving than buying a large number of things in person.

"Boss, I'll go shopping with you tomorrow afternoon. Think about what you want to buy first, and it's best to write it down.

You take your time to think about it, I'll go get someone to set the table."

Xu Han waved her hand and said, "Okay, okay, go ahead."

After dinner, Xu Han filled out the shopping list in the study, and Lu Chuan helped her with the consultation.

Have a good night's sleep...

The next day, the couple got up together at dawn.

Today is the day for delivery of the sweet potato wine order. Xu Han still feels that it would be more reassuring if she goes there herself in the morning to keep an eye on it.

There will definitely be a lot of people there by then, and I can lend a hand.

So after breakfast, he took Lu Chuan out.

When the two of them arrived, the shop had just opened. At this time, there were already many people in the shop coming to pick up the goods they had ordered before, for fear that they would be late and would not be able to get them and would have to wait for the next batch.

Xu Han looked at the increasing number of people in the shop and shouted, "Everyone, don't be anxious, line up.

As long as the order is placed on the opening day or the next day, it will be available today.

As for the orders placed later, you will have to wait a little longer. Don’t worry, we are working overtime to rush the goods and strive to ensure that everyone can receive the sweet potato wine before the New Year so that you will not be delayed from drinking it during the New Year.”

Maybe Xu Han's voice was too soft to cover the voices of other people in the shop. Seeing this, Li Wen moved a chair around, stood on it, and shouted the same words Xu Han had just shouted.

The people gathered in the shop started to line up after hearing this.

Because the shop was busy today, Xu Han specially called Han Qi and Zhu Chunsheng over to help. Together with the other shop assistants, the group was able to handle the work.

The male laborers were responsible for moving the canned sweet potato wine out of the warehouse in the backyard, while Xu Han and Lu Chuan helped collect the balance and watched people receive the wine.
