Chapter 210 Soap Manufacturing Successfully
Xu followed the steps she said, washed her hands, and finally rinsed off the foam on her hands.
"Oh my god, my hands seem to be really clean, even the black marks on the fingernails are gone!" Xu stretched out her hands in front of her and looked at them again and again.
Aunt Zhang walked over, took her hand and looked at it. "Oh, it's really clean! Much cleaner than washing it directly with water!"
"Yes, Mom, I said this thing can clean things. And this soap can not only wash hands, but also wash face. Sometimes when we wake up in the morning, our faces feel oily, so we can use this soap to wash our faces." Shen Wanning continued to explain.
"Okay, okay, this is a really good thing. But it has to use lard, and the raw material is a bit expensive. How much does it have to sell for to make back the money?" Aunt Zhang was happy and worried.
"Don't worry, Mom. Even if the price is a little higher, there will be people who will buy it. The raw materials for our milk tea are also expensive, but isn't our business booming?" Shen Wanning comforted.
With the success of the milk tea shop, Aunt Zhang still trusts Shen Wanning more.
"Okay, let's try it first. At least Mom thinks this thing is very useful. It can be used to wash hands and face. Mom has never seen such a good thing before." Aunt Zhang took the soap curiously and kept looking at it.
"Mom, this piece of soap is so big, why don't we cut it into four pieces first? Mom, my eldest and second sisters-in-law, and I can each use one piece and try using it for a few days." Shen Wanning suggested.
"Okay! I'll go cut it right away." Aunt Zhang said, and cut the soap into four pieces. She gave two pieces to Xu and said, "Go, give one piece to Wen."
Xu took the two bars of soap and left happily as if she were carrying a treasure.
She is the one who needs soap the most in the family. She cooks in the kitchen every day and her hands are often covered with oil. It takes her a long time to wipe off the oil on her hands, and she can never wipe them completely clean.
"If we sell soap, we will need a lot of lard! This will cost a lot of money. Why don't we make a small amount and try selling it first?" asked Aunt Zhang.
Shen Wanning nodded. "I thought so too, and I'm planning to open a shop in Fuzhou. There are many wealthy people in Fuzhou, and the price of this soap is quite high. I'm afraid it won't sell well in a small city."
"Fuzhou? Do you want to go so far to do business? Or should we stay in the county town?" Aunt Zhang hesitated.
"It's okay, Mom. Fuzhou isn't that far away. Besides, even if we want to start a soap business, it won't happen overnight. We still have time to plan slowly. There's no need to rush."
"Okay, let's wait and see. Did you ask your dad to make the mold just for making soap?"
"Yes, Mom! That's why I said there's no rush. I want to try again and see if I can make soaps with different scents."
Of course, she also had another idea, which was to add milk to the soap to make milk soap, which could have a whitening effect.
"There are so many ways to do this! It will take a long time to study."
"Yes, that's why I said there's no rush for us to open a shop." Shen Wanning said with a smile.
Before dinner, Hunter Chen came to the Lin family again.
He stood in the yard, holding the two rabbits tightly in his hands, looking a little uneasy.
Aunt Zhang rarely saw Hunter Chen with such an expression, and was very surprised. "Hunter Chen, why are you here?"
"I... I'm here to look for Wan Ning." Hunter Chen stuttered.
"Come in and sit down. Wan Ning went to the backyard and will be back soon." Aunt Zhang took out a stool and placed it in front of Hunter Chen.
Hunter Chen sat on the stool for a while, and Shen Wanning walked out from the backyard.
"Uncle Chen." Shen Wanning called out.
Hunter Chen stood up, a little reserved. "Wan Ning, I... I came here to ask... Now that Jingyou has gone to Beijing to take the imperial examination, can I still go to the county to work?"
Shen Wanning thought for a moment and said, "How about Uncle Chen take over the farm for a while? It's currently managed by Mrs. Xu and her husband. But I'll need to grow other things later. They'll also have to take care of the cows and milk delivery, so they might not be able to handle the farmwork."
Hunter Chen nodded quickly, "Okay, as long as you let me work in the county town, I'll do anything."
"When my eldest brother goes to the county town tomorrow, why don't Uncle Chen go with me?" Shen Wanning said.
In fact, there is nothing to do on the farm now, but Shen Wanning knows that he is trying to escape from the incident with Lin Yueliang.
"Okay, thank you Wan Ning." Hunter Chen put the rabbit down and was about to leave.
"Hey, Uncle Chen, you don't need these rabbits, take them back." Shen Wanning chased after him and returned the two rabbits to him.
Hunter Chen waved his hands repeatedly, "You're welcome, this is what I hunted in winter. Hunting is easier in winter, and I can't finish it all by myself anyway."
Shen Wanning wanted to continue chasing him and return the rabbit to him, but Chen the Hunter ran very fast and disappeared in a flash.
"Oh, Lin Yueliang has really done a lot of harm to people! Although she is pitiful, Chen the Hunter is a good man. Her death puts an end to everything, but Chen the Hunter is being gossiped about by others." Aunt Zhang sighed.
Shen Wanning couldn't help but sigh. Chen the Hunter had suffered a completely unprovoked disaster. So sometimes being too kind isn't a good thing. There's truth to the saying that kind people are often bullied.
While thinking, Shen Wanning's eyes lit up when she suddenly saw two rabbits on the ground.
It just so happened that I harvested that pepper plant before the New Year. Although there weren't many peppers, they were enough to make these two rabbits.
Just keep the seeds and use the rest to stir-fry the rabbit.
Thinking of this, Shen Wanning picked up two fat rabbits and asked, "Mom, sister-in-law, can you kill rabbits?"
"Of course, what's so difficult about that? Why, Wan Ning, do you want to eat rabbit?" Xu asked after taking a look at the rabbit.
Shen Wanning nodded. "Yes, sister-in-law, can you kill the rabbit later? I have a recipe for cooking rabbit. Let's try it."
"Okay, I'll go now." With that, Xu went out carrying two rabbits.
Shen Wanning went to the kitchen and found the dried chilies she had picked. She cut them into sections and kept the seeds.
When Xu came back with the washed rabbit, Shen Wanning was there to give her instructions. Aunt Zhang was worried that she wouldn't be able to do it, so she watched from the kitchen.
While Xu was cutting the rabbit into small pieces, Shen Wanning heated oil in a pan and fried various spices in the pan.
After the aroma comes out, take out the spices and add the rabbit to stir-fry. After the rabbit meat is cooked, take out the rabbit meat and add the peppercorns, chili peppers, ginger and garlic to stir-fry.
Finally, add the rabbit meat and stir-fry, then add other seasonings to taste, and it’s almost ready to be served.
"It smells so good! Oh my God, Wan Ning, if I remember correctly, you have never cooked before! How do you know the recipe for rabbit meat?" Xu swallowed her saliva as she smelled the aroma of rabbit meat.
