Chapter 423 - 423 Executed it



It made the people who were working and the people who passed by on the nearby streets extremely hungry.

Xirui and Liang Youxiao had just settled a deal for a batch of wool from another county when they smelled the fragrance.

The two of them suddenly felt extremely hungry.

They looked at each other and quickly walked into the workshop.

The two of them entered the workshop and walked towards the room that was the most fragrant.

The manservant at the door did not let them in.

Instead, he first reported to Shi Qingluo and only let them in after she agreed.

Xirui and Xirui didn’t mind.

This room was related to the recipe for the canned food, so of course, those entering and leaving had to be strictly checked.

“Qingluo, you’re making canned meat? This is too fragrant.”

Xirui walked in and went up to Shi Qingluo, who was making meat stew with his men. “I’m so hungry. Can we have some? ”

“No problem,” Shi Qingluo replied with a smile.

“I’ve stewed red braised, yellow braised, and clear mutton soup. You guys try it.”

So she served the two of them three jars of mutton that had just been stewed and were about to be sealed.

The two didn’t stand on ceremony and picked up their chopsticks to taste it.

He quickly finished the red and braised mutton. “It’s delicious. I’ll have another serving of these two flavors.”

Both of them had strong tastes, so they didn’t like the jar with clear mutton soup that much.

Liang Youxiao couldn’t help but sigh. “Qingluo, this can of mutton is too delicious.”

Shi Qingluo laughed. “Of course. My mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and I have spent a few days adjusting the ingredients to make it taste so good.”

“Can this can of mutton really last months without changing its smell or odor after it’s done?” Liang Youxiao asked.

Shi Qingluo nodded. “It can. Otherwise, why would old Xiao and I go through so much trouble to open a canned food factory?

“If we don’t put the mutton stew in the jars, it will go bad tomorrow on such a hot day.”

The price of mutton had been lower recently, so it was a good time to make canned food in large quantities.

When the vegetation dried up in winter and there was heavy snow, not only would the sheep not be as fertile as they were now, but the number of sheep would also be reduced by a lot, and the price would go up a lot.

Therefore, stocking up more canned mutton and selling them in winter was the most cost-effective method.

Xi Rui ate it happily. “How long can you keep this can of mutton? ”

Shi Qingluo replied, “It’s not a problem to wait until winter. It can last for about half a year without going bad.

“And the taste won’t change much. It’ll still be as delicious as before.”

During winter,” she continued, “we put a can of mutton on the iron stove to stew. Everyone will sit around the stove and drink a few cups of wine. Isn’t it a leisurely and enjoyable thing to do? ”

It felt great to stew a jar of mutton or cook some vegetables for a hot pot in winter.

As expected, Xi Rui and Liang Youxiao both nodded. “That’s true. It’s satisfying just thinking about it!”

“Qingluo, when do you plan to start selling these cans?” Xi Rui asked with a smile.

Of course, he had to send these delicious items to the capital for his grandmother and mother to try.

As for his grandfather and father, who had ruthlessly thrown him to Northern Xinjiang, hmph, he would make sure that they saw it but don’t get to try it.

Shi Qingluo replied, “The best season to sell these canned mutton is late autumn. So, after they’re done, sell a portion of it every month. This will build up our reputation.”

By the end of autumn, they will be sold in large quantities, and the price will naturally rise.

They would sell the canned food at a discount in the early stage, so that everyone would know that canned food in Heyang County was delicious.

When the weather was cold, the sales volume would definitely not be low even if the price was raised.

“Then sell a batch to me first, I’ll send them to the capital,” Xi Rui said with a smile.

He could also let his family eat it in autumn and winter, and save some money.

Liang Youxiao had similar thoughts. “Right, right. I’m also going to ship a batch back to the capital for my grandmother to try.”

Liang Youxiao and Xi Rui’s wool workshop was already open, so they would be sending some wool products back when the time came.

Shi Qingluo nodded, “No problem. Other than canned mutton, I’m also going to make canned food from other meat and canned fruit.”

Xi Rui was taken aback. “Ah, so it is possible to make canned fruit? ”

Shi Qingluo nodded. “Of course you can. For example, if this place produces a lot of pears, we can make canned pears and sell them in the capital and other places.”

Liang Youxiao asked in confusion, “How do we make canned pears? Do we seal the raw pear in this jar?”

Shi Qingluo chuckled. “How can that be? If you put raw pears in the jar, they’ll definitely spoil soon.

“Of course, it has to be cooked first. Then, add sugar. It will taste different from fresh pears. It will taste different.

“Frozen canned fruit is also very tasty in summer.

“I’ll let you guys try it when it’s done.”

“Other than canned pears, what other fruits can be made?” Liang Youxiao asked curiously.

“For canned fruits, you can use peaches, plums, lychees, loquats, oranges, grapes, and so on,” Shi Qingluo replied.

These were all the canned fruits she liked to eat in the modern world.

During summer, she would buy some and put them in the refrigerator, then cook sago to make fruit sago soup.

The northern border mainly had pears, grapes, and peaches as fruits.

She prepared to use these three to make canned fruit.

Qi Yiyang had previously written a letter to ask what kind of fruit could be planted to make the commoners rich, and she had suggested planting these kinds of fruits.

If the farmers couldn’t sell it, their canned workshop would buy from them.

She also suggested for Heyang County and the county under Zhuojun’s jurisdiction to plant these too.

She also suggested planting beets in these three counties.

When the time came, they could open a sugar workshop here and process the beets into cane sugar.

By then, not only would the problem of adding sugar in the canned food be solved, but the excess could also be sold at a high price to the Ge Kingdom and the Western Region.

Nowadays, the seasonal nature of fruits was too strong, and there was basically no fruit to eat in winter.

After making them into canned fruits, they could sell them in the capital and Jiangnan in winter. They would definitely be able to earn a lot.

Liang Youxiao’s eyes lit up. “So there’s so much fruit that could be used to make canned fruits.

“Qingluo, why don’t we also open a fruit can workshop?”

“We won’t do it at the northern border and snatch the business from Heyang County. We’ll do it in the South. There are many fruits there, and several of the ones you mentioned have high production in the South.

Shi Qingluo knew that Liang Youxiao had always wanted to be the number one merchant in Daliang, so it was indeed feasible for him to open a canned fruit workshop in the South.

Although she wasn’t short of money now, she wouldn’t complain about having too much money. “Sure! You can also go to the coastal areas to build a workshop and sell canned fish.”

The sales of canned fish in modern times were also very impressive.

Liang Youxiao immediately decided. “Let’s do it.”

“I’ll leave the wool workshop here to you, ” he said to Xi Rui. “I’ll set off for the South in a few days.”

Xi Rui rolled his eyes at him. “You sure know how to make trouble.”

“But can I also become a shareholder?” He didn’t mind having more money.

Liang Youxiao chuckled. “Isn’t one of your maternal relatives going to be an official in Minnan? When the time comes, ask him to protect us. I’ll give you 20% of the shares.”

“Of course, in addition to using this connection, you also have to offer some silver so that we can open a few more workshops.

“I’ll be in charge of sending people to supervise the work and also selling the products.”

Xi Rui nodded his head. “No problem.”

Liang Youxiao looked at Shi Qingluo. “Qingluo, you’re in charge of giving me the recipe. You just need to teach me how to make canned food.”

Shi Qingluo nodded. “I’m fine with it too.”

Making money was one thing, but knowing that she could also eat canned lychees, oranges, and other canned food in the northern border next time made her feel comfortable, so she executed this plan!
