Chapter 164 After his father was promoted again
and coaxed Chen Aqing, Wei Ruo and Xiumei returned to Tianqin Garden.
Wei Ruo was in the room with a pen and paper calculating and planning the next work. Zuixianju's seasoning consumption was greater than that of her braised food shop. She needed more raw materials and a workshop that could stably produce seasonings.
Purchasing raw materials, transporting, and setting up workshops are not completely unfamiliar areas to Wei Ruo. Wei Ruo has accumulated experience in this field in the past thirteen years, otherwise he would not be able to open the shop Sibao Zhai.
In terms of purchasing raw materials, usually, considering the transportation cost, Wei Ruo will give priority to some raw material origins that are far away. However, because the application of these spices is not yet widespread enough, there are relatively few people growing spices, and many spices are wild, so For the time being, Wei Ruo can only go to the place where she purchased before to make large purchases, and the cost will be slightly higher.
But according to the price negotiated between her and Boss Fan, the cost is not a problem.
If the sales scale expands further, she will consider freeing up some land for the cultivation of raw materials such as cloves, cardamom, and cinnamon.
In terms of transportation, after two days, Lao Tao, who was in charge of land transportation, arrived. She gave Lao Tao her list and asked him to make a trip. The raw material she used to make five-spice powder and hot pot base was Lao Tao. Bought it for her.
As for oysters, the raw material for making oyster sauce, they are relatively easy to obtain. Taizhou Prefecture is close to the sea, so this thing is easy to handle as long as the sea is open.
However, due to the Japanese pirate problem, oysters are not very stable at present. It is still the same problem. If the sales volume increases, Wei Ruo will consider breeding, which can not only save costs but also stabilize the supply.
The premise is that there must be considerable sales support, otherwise the efficiency of doing so will not be high.
There are more soybeans grown in the north, so Wei Ruo will be entrusted to the Daegu brother who runs a boat.
Lao Tao and Brother Daqiu are both people Wei Ruo has known and worked with for a long time, and their characters are both reliable.
In addition to the supply of raw materials, Wei Ruo also needs to choose a site. She still has some open space on Zhuangzi in Fucheng, which can be used to build a small workshop.
The size of the small workshop does not need to be large at first, but you must choose a few that are reliable and have a correct attitude.
When she has time, she will visit Zhuangzi more often. If there are suitable ones, she will select them to work in the workshop.

Wei Ruo stayed in Fucheng until Xu Ji Braised Food Shop reopened, and then returned to Xingshan County.
As soon as I got home, I heard the good news about the Wei family.
The documents for Wei Mingting's promotion and assignment have arrived. He was promoted to deputy garrison and will assist the garrison of Taizhou Prefecture and be responsible for the entire Taizhou Prefecture's anti-Japanese army.
The rank was also upgraded from the original sixth-rank Zhongxian Colonel to the sixth-rank Zhaoxin Colonel.
However, in just half a year, he was promoted to two levels in a row!
Such honors are rare, which shows that Wei Mingting did indeed perform outstandingly in the fight against Japan.
Because of this good news, the whole school captain's house was immersed in joy.
It felt like the faces of every servant passing by were filled with happiness and excitement.
Wei Ruo and Xiumei walked through the crowd calmly, returned to Wangmei Garden, and then did whatever they had to do.
Winning a battle and getting a reward is something that has been expected for a long time. Although the promotion again is indeed a bit unexpected. Before, everyone thought that they had just been promoted once in half a year, and now it may be inappropriate to be promoted again.
But facts have proven that the imperial court still attaches great importance to the fight against Japan, and lacks talents to fight against Japan, so it is not stingy with rewards and promotions for generals who have made meritorious service in the fight against Japan.
At present, the biggest impact on Wei Ruo is probably the moving issue.
I just received news that because Wei Mingting was promoted to the sixth rank and the army he will be in charge of in the future has changed from the anti-Japanese army deployed in Xingshan County to the anti-Japanese army along the entire coast of Taizhou Prefecture, Wei Mingting's residence will be moved from Xingshan County. To Fucheng.
Now the whole government is busy with this matter. Wei Ruo can't avoid this, because Wei Ruo's things are no less than others. Not to mention what she brought here from Huzhou Prefecture, she has accumulated a lot of things in the past six months alone. Her personal little The warehouse is so packed that it won't be able to fit in a truck.
Wei Ruo is quite happy to move this time. Although there are many industries owned by her in Xingshan County, these industries have been operating stably. Now it is Fucheng that needs her more.
The move of Wei Mansion to Fucheng will greatly facilitate her next actions.
In the evening, after Wei Ruo and everyone had dinner in the dining hall, Yun talked to everyone about moving.
Yun asked Wei Ruo specifically: "Ruo'er has been in Fucheng these days. I don't know the situation at home yet. Mom is telling you that your father will be transferred to Fucheng. The appointment letter has been issued. The transfer It's urgent, so we need to pack our things as soon as possible and follow your father to move to a new residence in Fucheng."
Since the Japanese pirate problem has been plaguing Taizhou Prefecture, the transfer of military attachés is relatively urgent.
But it can also be seen that Wei Mingting's ability has been recognized by the people above him, so he is so eager to transfer him to Fucheng to help guard the anti-Japanese army that controls the entire Taizhou Prefecture.
"Well, I will pack my things as soon as possible." Wei Ruo replied.
"Well, it's best to tell mother in advance so that she can prepare carriages and horses in advance." Yun said.
"Okay."
Mrs. Yun continued: "Over in Fucheng, Ruo'er understands her better than her father, brothers and sisters. When we get there, if something happens, Ruo'er needs to help her brothers and sisters more."
" Yeah." Wei Ruo agreed with a smile.
Wei Yilin raised a question: "Mom, what should I do? I'm still practicing martial arts with my master! We can't give up halfway!"
Yun said: "Silly boy, there are also martial arts masters in Fucheng, and the masters in Fucheng are better than those in Xingshan County "It's even more powerful."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. If you don't believe it, ask your father."
Wei Mingting nodded.
After receiving Wei Mingting's affirmative answer, Wei Yilin's face was filled with joy and expectation.
"Great, then I can become even more powerful! By then none of my current senior brothers will be able to beat him!" Wei Yilin was already imagining what would happen next.
"You study hard, and my father will hire the best martial arts teacher for you in Fucheng." Wei Mingting said to Wei Yilin.
"Okay! Father, I will study hard!" Wei Yilin replied firmly.
Seeing his lively, cheerful and thoughtful appearance, Wei Mingting and Yun couldn't help but smile with relief on their faces.
This child has really changed a lot in recent times.
Wei Qingwan took Wei Yilin's happy look into her eyes and lowered her head involuntarily.
When her brother left her, she was not as sad as she imagined. Instead, she lived a very happy life.
