Chapter 110 Creating Gold Powder Paper

Jiang Yuwei looked at Ning Chunlin and suddenly thought of something, so she said calmly:

"Are you here to get the silver from the mulberry bark?"

Ning Chunlin nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

Jiang Yuwei smiled and said:

"Okay, you have an extra ten kilograms of wet bark, which is twenty cents in total. You can send it to me to sell when you have bark in the future."

Jiang Yuwei took out twenty coins from her purse and handed them to Ning Chunlin. Ning Chunlin took the silver and counted them one by one. When he saw that the amount was correct, he nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile:

"Okay, I'll get some more bark to sell in the next few days."

Jiang Yuwei saw Ning Chunlin take the silver and leave, then she turned to Ning Huaizhi and said:

"It would be good if your brother could concentrate on making money by peeling tree bark in the future. At least he wouldn't have time to gamble."

Ning Huaizhi glanced at Ning Chunlin's back with concern and said calmly:

"It's not easy to quit gambling. I hope he can change."

Jiang Yuwei smiled and said:

"Everyone has his own destiny, so we just need to live our own lives well."

After saying that, Jiang Yuwei was busy moving all the things out of the car, and then helped Ning Huaizhi down. Ning Daya saw Jiang Yuwei coming back and hurried over to help her move things. Now that there was a helper like Ning Daya at home and outside, Jiang Yuwei felt a lot more relaxed.

At that time, she spent two taels of silver to hire her as a long-term worker at home. Although she wanted to help her tide over the difficulties, Jiang Yuwei also considered that there would be more work to do at home in the future, and it would be necessary to train a few trusted helpers, so she decisively signed the contract with Grandma Sun.

After everything was packed up, Jiang Yuwei found that Ning Daya had already prepared the meal. She felt better and it was so nice not to have to cook for herself.

Ning Daya put the food on the table and asked:

"Sister Yuwei, we should go to the market tomorrow. Have we prepared everything for the market?"

Jiang Yuwei thought for a moment and smiled:

"I have already caught the crayfish for tomorrow's market. I will ask you and Ning Wan to go to the pond and bring them back. I will ask your brother Huaizhi to cook them this afternoon. I will go and see how the gray tofu and preserved eggs are marinated. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. I will make some ice tofu pudding to sell at the market tomorrow. I will soak the beans in the afternoon and you can grind them in the evening."

Ning Daya nodded happily. As long as there was work for her to do, she would be happy, because only in this way would she feel that it was worth it for Jiang Yuwei to spend two taels of silver to hire her.

After finishing her meal, Jiang Yuwei went to check on the gray tofu and preserved eggs. Seeing that the preserved eggs were pickled, she took out the gray tofu, cleaned it, seasoned it and stewed it in a large pot. She then asked Ning Huaizhi to help watch the pot, and she went to the backyard to study papermaking.

When Tiezhu and Ningwu saw Jiang Yuwei coming, they hurriedly reported the progress of papermaking to her:

"Sister Yuwei, we only have 200 knives left of the 500 knives of paper to go. I calculated the date and we may be able to deliver the goods ahead of schedule."

Jiang Yuwei nodded with great satisfaction and smiled;

"You two are becoming more and more like master papermakers! When our paper mill recruits new workers in the future, you two will be responsible for training them."

Ning Wu and Tie Zhu looked at each other and smiled awkwardly after hearing this:

"What's the big deal about master chef or not? My mother told us to just follow Sister Yuwei. Whatever you say is what we will do."

Jiang Yuwei took out the gold powder in her arms and smiled at the two of them:

"Today I am going to research something new. Once it is completed, this paper will become the signature of our paper mill. You two should learn from it."

Jiang Yuwei found a piece of half-dried paper, and then found a piece of completely wet paper and laid them all out. She spread the gold powder carefully and tried blowing it with her mouth and scattering it with her hands. She then directed Ning Wu to be in charge of copying paper in the pool, while Tiezhu was sprinkling gold powder beside him.

After trying these methods, Jiang Yuwei compared them and found that the paper produced by the hand-sprinkling method looked better. Sprinkling gold powder on the surface when the paper is 80% wet not only saves gold powder, but also better blends the paper and gold powder. It looks very beautiful, especially sparkling in the sun.

Ning Wu and Tie Zhu were stunned by Jiang Yuwei's operation. When they saw the finished product, they nodded and praised:

"Oh my, Sister Yuwei, this is so beautiful, why is it so beautiful?"

Jiang Yuwei was also very satisfied with the results of the experiment. She looked at the paper left and right, nodded and said:

"From now on, this paper will be called gold powder paper. Gold powder is very precious. You two must keep it well and be careful when using it. Don't waste it. After you have made 500 pieces of paper, make all the gold powder paper and I will take them to the bookstore to show the shopkeeper."

Tiezhu and Ningwu nodded repeatedly and said:

"Sister Yuwei, don't worry, we'll get to work right away!"

After Jiang Yuwei finished giving instructions for the things in the backyard, she went to the front yard. She also had to prepare ingredients for tomorrow's market. The pounded peppers and preserved eggs were ready. The next step was to put the cooked gray tofu into a bucket. When Jiang Yuwei saw that the food was almost seasoned, she directly put the soup and tofu into the bamboo bucket. This way, it would be more flavorful when she brought it to the market tomorrow, and the gray tofu could also be preserved longer.

Ning Wan was in charge of making the fire, while Ning Huaizhi was concentrating on making spicy crayfish. Having seen Jiang Yuwei make it so many times, he had already memorized the methods and steps by heart. Ning Huaizhi was a quick learner, and he wanted to help Jiang Yuwei share some of the work within his ability and didn't want to be a useless person, so he treated the housework with extra care. After a while, all the crayfish in Ning Huaizhi's pot were stewed.

Jiang Yuwei came over and sniffed hard, then said with a smile:

"Yeah, that's the taste. Chef Ning's cooking skills are pretty good!"

Ning Huaizhi felt a little shy when he saw Jiang Yuwei praising him, but he still straightened his chest and smiled:

"Yuwei, you're teasing me again. My cooking is definitely not as good as yours."

Jiang Yuwei waved her hand and said:

"I'm not kidding you, I'm telling you the truth!"

Ning Daya started to grind the beans when she saw that they were soaked. Ning Wan insisted on helping Ning Daya pour the beans. Jiang Yuwei did not stop her, but found a small stool for Ning Wan to stand on, and used a ladle to scoop the beans into the grinding wheel.

Jiang Yuwei thought that it would be too monotonous to just eat ice tofu pudding, so she took out some tapioca flour, lit a fire, and steamed a pot of purple sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes, and taro. She also washed the red beans she had soaked earlier and put them in the pot to cook.

Soon a large pot of food was cooked. Jiang Yuwei peeled the purple sweet potato, sweet potato and taro, mashed them separately, mixed them with tapioca flour and kneaded them into dough. She rolled the dough into long strips and cut them into squares of the same size. Then she boiled water in a pot, put the ingredients into the pot, cooked them and served them out.

After putting it into bowls, she poured a lot of honey into the bowl and stirred it evenly. Jiang Yuwei also mixed the cooked red beans with honey. Finally, the ingredients for tofu pudding were ready.
