After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure

Chapter 91: That's A Must

Shi Qingluo was rolling up her sleeves and teaching her little husband and mother-in-law how to make mosquito incense.

Little did she know that collecting eels from others would give her additional manpower in the future.

Shi Qingluo didn't make those mosquito coils found in modern times.

Instead, she made those that look like incense sticks.

It would be more convenient to burn a stick each night.

Aside from wormwood, wild chrysanthemum, and powdered fishbone powder, they also had to source for paper.

They had already started making paper before Xiao Hanzheng went to the prefectural city.

Recently, they had air-dried some of it.

It still wasn't very smooth and had a yellowish hue. Hence, they had to constantly improvise.

However, the current yellowish-brown paper was good enough to make mosquito incense.

This time, they made paper from straw and tree bark. The paper was a little coarse.

It was mainly for experiments. After they moved into their new house, they would use bamboo to make paper that was whiter and thinner.

A few of them gathered to make a few bundles of mosquito incense.

That night, the two rooms were lit up.

The next morning when Shi Qingluo woke up, she did not find any mosquito patches on her.

Neither did she hear the mosquitos buzzing in the middle of the night. She had a good sleep.

Xiao Hanzheng also slept very well. "This mosquito incense is really effective."

Shi Qingluo smiled. "Just in time. The previous batch of beets had just turned into sugar. Let's recruit some women to quickly make some mosquito incense in that workshop for sale."

Xiao Hanzheng changed out his pyjamas into a robe. "Are you still working with Bai Xu?"

Shi Qingluo stood up as well. "I can sell some to him, but I want to attract more merchants to come to our village to buy mosquito incense in bulk.

"Coincidentally, there are a lot of people buying saltpeter recently. We have to maintain the flow of people so that the village will become livelier and more prosperous in the future.

"The soy sauce and soy sauce that I made previously are almost done. After furnishing the shop at the entrance of our village, we'll bring in new stocks for wholesale."

Now, she didn't want Bai Xu or the other merchants to monopolize the things that she made.

She wanted to use these goods to attract and sell them in bulk to many merchants from other places.

She wanted to boost Nanxi County's economy first.

Xiao Hanzheng was used to hearing new jargon from his wife's mouth from time to time.

She was only like this in front of him.

She was still very cautious with her word choices when she was outside.

"We can try this. I think your idea is very good.

"We can also discuss with Mo Qingling and bring Nanxi County to life together."

If they wanted to do this, it would be even better if they received the magistrate's support.

Shi Qingluo nodded. "Indeed, we should discuss it with Mo Qingling."
