Chapter 192 Toothpaste Jar

Duan Minmin dictated and Jiang Chengye wrote it down on paper.

Jiang Chengye's handwriting is also very beautiful, worthy of being a child raised in a wealthy family.

After memorizing it, Jiang Chengye lifted it up and read it aloud. After Duan Minmin confirmed that there was no problem, she copied it again and carefully blew it dry before putting it away.

In fact, Duan Minmin had already seen it when Jiang Chengye was writing. Although they were all traditional Chinese characters, she could roughly recognize them, so she knew there was no problem as soon as he finished writing.

However, for the sake of appearance, I pretended to listen to it.

After Jiang Dayou confirmed it again and put away the recipe, it was almost time, so the two woke up the children to go to school. Then they locked the door and went to the factory to see how the custom-made jars were.

From a distance, one could see a beautiful horse-drawn carriage parked steadily in front of Chen Fangping's house. The tall horse pulling the carriage was snorting loudly, which had attracted the attention of many children in the village.

They gathered around the carriage and chattered, but Chang'an stood guard beside the carriage and did not allow them to come forward.

Seeing Jiang Dayou and Mr. Jiang coming with two guards holding knives, the children were a little scared and scattered.

Jiang Dayou directed Jiang Feng and Jiang Shui to move boxes of cans off the truck. There were ten boxes in total that were half a person's height.

Originally, the two of them wanted to ask the people working inside to come out and help, but Jiang Dayou said it was not necessary, and Jiang Feng and Jiang Shui were enough.

Sure enough, Jiang Feng and Jiang Shui were as calm as if nothing had happened, moving the big box very quickly, and they had finished moving it in less than a quarter of an hour.

The physical fitness of those who practice martial arts is really different. Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin looked at the brothers Jiang Feng and Jiang Shui with envy, who were neither blushing nor out of breath.

But they could only envy. They couldn't exercise at all. Most of the time they just wanted to lie down.

Originally, Jiang Dayou said that these boxes should be placed directly in the kitchen, and when the toothpaste is made, it can be canned here directly to save the trouble of moving them around.

But thinking that Chen Fangyuan's family would cause trouble from time to time, the two of them decided to let Jiang Feng and Jiang Shui move into the warehouse.

This time, Jiang Dayou came back with more than a dozen locks for them. When Jiang Dayou took out a bunch of locks and handed them to the two of them, they almost knelt down to thank Jiang Dayou.

They had said a long time ago that they would buy a new lock, but the two of them just couldn't remember it, so they have been using the same one for such a long time.

It was when Jiang Dayou came to live here last time and saw them and Old Lady Chen passing keys back and forth that he remembered to buy a few keys for them.

The two men said they wanted to give money, but Jiang Dayou took three steps back.

"You two girls, please be polite. Although Jiang Ji is not as wealthy as a country, we still have some experience in the lock business. These dozen locks are nothing."

"Thank you, Brother Jiang. We won't be polite."

Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin didn't bother to be polite with him. They accepted the lock and didn't mention the money anymore.

Come to think of it, Jiang's sells all kinds of things, so a few locks probably don't mean anything in their eyes.

Several people entered the warehouse, and Jiang Dayou directed Jiang Feng to open a box at random.

The box was covered with thick straw. When the straw on the surface was removed, rows of tightly bundled cans appeared underneath.

Each jar is tied with a circle of straw to prevent it from being bumpy during the journey.

Once it was untied, a green porcelain jar the size of a persimmon appeared before his eyes.

I have to say that Jiang Dayou has some vision. This jar and toothpaste are a perfect match. The toothpaste tubes in later generations all loved this color combination. After all, when they saw it, they thought of cold toothpaste.

As for the size of the jar, it is neither too big nor too small. It is not too big that the price cannot be lowered, nor too small that makes customers think their product is too expensive.

The most important thing is that in this era when anti-corrosion technology is still immature, if it is too big, it may deteriorate.

They had tried what they had made before and it could only last for half a month at most.

Seeing the two men holding the jar and not saying anything, Jiang Dayou knew that his idea was recognized.

"Girls, is there anything else you need to pay attention to with this jar?"

"Brother Jiang, since this business is going to be tied to our Jiang's, then this jar should be printed with a Jiang's logo."

"Two girls, turn the jar over and take a look." Jiang Dayou seemed to have expected the two to say this.

The two turned the jar over and saw "Jiang's" printed neatly on the bottom.

Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin originally thought that it would be better to print the logo on the jar itself. If it is printed on the bottom, no one will know that this thing is Jiang’s.

But then I thought it might be better to print it on the bottom, which would not be conspicuous and could prove that it is our own product.

If someone wants to cause trouble at that time, they may not pay attention to this detail. At that time, you can use this to prove yourself and tell others that Jiang’s has its own logo, and you can also promote it.

"Brother Jiang is indeed knowledgeable and experienced. This is a very good idea."

Hearing the two of them say this, Jiang Dayou knew that they were clear about his thoughts, which was a bit of a pity.

I thought they didn't understand, and if I asked, I could give them an advantage over the other two. I didn't expect them to figure out the reason so quickly.

After putting down the jar, the two took Jiang Dayou to the mill again.

Most of the walls of the mill have been built. This time they did not use an earth foundation, but directly mixed straw and yellow mud, supported it with a formwork, and piled it up layer by layer.

After seeing the rudimentary water mill and listening to the two people's general ideas, Jiang Dayou couldn't help but admire that these two people had something in their heads.

He also arranged a lot of things during this trip. Jiang's business was large and they had their own factory, so they naturally didn't need to go through the trouble of building a new mill like they did.

But using this water mill is always more labor-saving and more economical.

Jiang Dayou planned in his mind that once the market in the south was opened, he would also build a large-scale water mill. By then, many things from the northern market could be brought here for processing, saving time and effort.

Last time, Boss Shi had brought his two sons to help put everything in place, and everything that needed to be done on the floor had been done. Now they just had to wait for Carpenter Li to bring over the things, install and debug them before they could be used.

As for the walls and the roof, we had discussed it at the time and decided that if there was really not enough time, we could just not build the beams.

After chatting with Mr. Chen for a few sentences and understanding the situation, the two of them felt a little more confident that Carpenter Li would be able to come and load the things around 1 p.m.

There was nothing to worry about anymore, and Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin calmed down and prepared to go back to prepare the materials for making toothpaste tomorrow.

Jiang Dayou also brought Jiang Chengye and followed the two back to the factory. The two thought they were going back to rest, but Jiang Dayou said that he had to leave immediately, otherwise it would be too late.

Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin calculated the time and felt that it was tight.

"Brother Jiang, how about we postpone the opening time for a few days? Can your letter be spread in just a few days?"

That's in the north. Although the two had no idea about the territory of Daye, it took five or six days to send the letter last time, and this time it had to be delivered even further.

"Don't worry, sisters. I have already arranged everything. The materials are ready. We are just waiting for the final recipe. Jiang's has been in business for so many years. We have our own ways. All the letters will arrive by the evening of the 24th at the latest."

Since he said so, he must be sure of it, so the two of them didn't say anything more.

Jiang Dayou originally wanted to take Jiang Chengye with him, but Jiang Chengye told him about Chen Fangyuan's family and their plans.

After hearing this, Jiang Dayou felt a little regretful that he couldn't watch it in person. He let the two of them stay to help them, and he took Jiang Feng on his return journey.
