Shortly after, Su Binglan told Mr. and Mrs. Yang about the schedule and teaching details so they could rest assured. It was natural to do that since the Yangs had sincerely sent their daughter to study.
“Your daughter will have lunch at our house from now on, and school will end early in the afternoon so they can go home quickly. There will be an oxcart to send them home, too. You don’t have to worry.”
Mr. and Mrs. Yang were extremely grateful to Su Binglan because they would have needed to pay if their daughter had studied elsewhere. No one could find a place where the teaching and meals were free.
Moreover, no one would teach girls anything they wanted to learn, not to mention medicine. A doctor would typically require a fee whenever they took in an apprentice, and some doctors might not even be sincere in teaching their apprentices everything.
However, the Yangs knew Su Binglan would be genuine with her lessons. Also, an oxcart would pick the apprentices up daily, and the Yangs could feel even more at ease.
After Mr. and Mrs. Yang left, Su Binglan brought Yang Man in for breakfast.
Soon after, Li Erying, Li Su, and another seven girls arrived one after the other.
Su Binglan accepted all of them and filled her quota with these ten female apprentices. Then she officially started her lessons, and even Su Wenxiu’s three apprentices attended class.
He had also taken in another seven boys to study alongside the rest.
When Su Binglan gave her lectures, she would use her blackboard and share some nursing knowledge. She also taught some first-aid methods to everyone.
When noon arrived, everyone had lunch at the Su family’s house. Su Binglan knew these kids were still growing, so the food she made was highly nutritious.
There were twenty apprentices, and she gave them each two meat and two vegetable dishes to eat. Now that she had more money, she could afford to feed all her apprentices.
Most of her apprentices came from low-income families and usually did not have enough to eat at home. They also did not expect to be able to eat their fill while studying.
In their eyes, Su Binglan was like a light guiding them toward their destination.
Everyone had more energy to study after eating their fill. They also cherished their opportunity to learn. As long as Su Binglan was speaking, everyone would listen attentively.
She would then patiently explain things to whoever struggled to understand certain things. Even the boys listened to her lessons carefully.
Su Binglan treated both boys and girls the same, too. After sharing some theoretical knowledge, she asked Su Wenxiu to bring everyone to catch small animals and learn practical knowledge.
They also learned about herbs. Su Wenxiu brought everyone to the backyard to plant and identify medical herbs. The apprentices realized they could quickly recognize and memorize medicinal herbs with Su Wenxiu’s teaching method.
The spots were already full when the other families considered it and finally decided to send their daughters over. Su Binglan no longer accepted apprentices.
At that moment, they were more annoyed after discovering that Su Binglan provided free lunch and an oxcart to transport the apprentices. They should have sent their daughters earlier instead of worrying too much.
“Mother, I told you we should’ve signed up earlier. So many people want to learn medicine from Miss Su, but you refused to let me go.” Some girls were angry because they genuinely wanted to learn.
The girl’s mother said, “I was afraid you’d ruin your reputation.”
“We would have just been studying together, not doing anything else. Besides, others will only be envious if word gets out that they’re Miss Su’s apprentices.”
The girl’s mother finally understood what her daughter meant. She said, “I let my thoughts get the better of me. I didn’t think of that, daughter.”
“How bad could it have been?” The girl was annoyed.
Meanwhile, her mother noticed her expression and felt helpless. After all, the quota was already full, and she could do nothing about it.
The girl apprentices were ecstatic when they returned home in the evening.
They then shared what they had learned with their families.
“Miss Su is so good. She made us food for lunch, and it was delicious! She even made chicken drumsticks, and I ate two bowls of rice.” The girl could still taste the food she had as she spoke.
The girl’s parents could not help but ask curiously, “What else did you have for lunch?”
“There were also pork ribs, tofu, and shredded potatoes. It was so delicious.”
“You’re eating so well there? It’s free, too?”
The girl excitedly explained, “That’s right. Miss Su said she would take care of lunch because she wants us to eat well to have sufficient energy to study. Teacher Wenxiu also taught us to plant and identify medicinal herbs in the backyard.
“Those herbs are the ones Miss Su and her brother used when they provided medical services.”
“My dear daughter, you must learn well from Miss Su. You’ll have great prospects in the future.”
“Yes, Mother.”
These girls went home and shared their day with their parents. Their parents were delighted that they had sent their daughters to study early. After all, they had heard that there would be limited spots.
No one expected Su Binglan to serve her apprentices food for lunch and provide an oxcart to transport the students initially.
Su Binglan busied herself teaching everyone for more than ten days. These girls were thirsty for knowledge and studied seriously. Su Binglan also felt gratified when she saw everyone’s enthusiasm for learning.
She would teach half a day of classes daily, and Su Wenxiu would teach everyone in the other half. Everyone seriously learned practical knowledge and now knew how to bandage and treat wounds.
Su Binglan would spend the rest of her time dealing with business matters. The winery had opened and was on the right track. Everyone who started working there took their jobs seriously.
However, the fundamental method of wine-brewing was in Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian’s hands. They did not spread their knowledge, and the people they hired were only responsible for specific processes, so it did not affect their work.
Meanwhile, the construction team had also completed the pottery workshop’s expansion. Tao Dayong and Tao Eryong also made more porcelain bottles with exquisite patterns.
Since they used such gorgeous bottles to store wine, Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian could charge several times that of ordinary wine. Their wine also had a few more steps to its process than others. Hence, they sold their product at a higher price, targeting wealthier families elsewhere.
Although the winery had just opened, business was already excellent. Many people were anxious to place orders with Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian.
Everyone knew they could make money if they did business with the Su family because of the success of the tofu factory and embroidery shop. Moreover, the
Su family sold things unique to the market, so it was terrific to outsource them.
After all, the young madams and ladies from wealthy families were fond of such novel things. They would buy plenty of pretty and practical things.
The merchants knew the products they ordered from the Su family could greatly profit when they returned home.
Moreover, they had drunk the family’s wine before and thought it was incredibly delicious. Since it was a high-grade wine, it would be precious to sell.
These merchants also wanted to buy fruit wine as it was something no one had ever tasted before. However, fruit wine was limited, and the merchants could not buy it, no matter how much they were willing to spend.
Everyone hoped the winery would brew a few more bottles of fruit wine. Also, the exquisite bottles and jars the pottery workshop made were too beautiful to resist. Many wanted to buy them. Therefore, the bottles and jars had their own price tags.
Besides the products the Taos supplied to the winery, they could also sell their other goods..
