Chapter 328 - 328 Sanitation Permit

328 Sanitation Permit

Over the past two days, Gu Qingming had taken the camera and brought Zhou Fangfang around the entire village under her sister-in-law’s lead.

She made a rough statistic of what the villagers wanted to sell.

She was shocked at what she found out.

It turned out that there were quite a lot of things in the village, and each of them had its own strengths.

Third Master Shi’s family was good at growing taro. The same species of taro that his family grew was big and round, and it was fragrant.

There was also Fifth Aunt’s family. The sweet potatoes she planted were soft and sweet. They tasted good when eaten raw or steamed.

Also, that auntie’s family was very good at deep-fried rice fruits. They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. They were especially fragrant.

The three of them walked around and tasted it.

In the past few days, everyone knew that Gu Qingming wanted to see the goods, so many people stayed at home and waited for Gu Qingming to come or send the things to the Shi family.

Zhou Fangfang enjoyed doing all these with Gu Qingming. Originally, Gu Qingming. did not need to do these things herself.

“Sister Xiaoyu, that glutinous rice cake dipped in honey is really delicious. I’ve eaten this taste before. Now, if I want to eat it, I have to go to town to buy it. However, the glutinous rice cake bought in town doesn’t taste authentic at all.” Zhou Fangfang held the documents in her hand and looked very happy.

She did not expect that on the second day of work, she would be eating everywhere she went.

“There’s also that small taro pork belly. Wow, this tastes really good. The small taro has the fragrance of meat. The pork belly is smooth and tender, fat but not greasy.”

Eldest sister-in-law, Zhou Xiaoyu, said in amusement, “I didn’t expect you to be such a foodie.”

Zhou Fangfang was a little embarrassed as she said, “Yes, it’s a big hobby of mine!”

Zhou Xiaoyu raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, “However, you can only look and not eat from now on!”

If she wanted to eat it, she had to buy it herself!

Sister-in-law looked at Gu Qingming and saw that she was a little silent. She asked in confusion, “Mingming, what’s wrong?”

Gu Qingming shook her head and said, “These finished and semi-finished products that are made directly, like this glutinous rice cake. They all need to comply with hygiene standards. If these people plan to make these things to sell, it’s best to let them go to the Health Bureau to get a hygiene license. Otherwise, our platform won’t accept such a deal!”

This was a problem.

Zhou Xiaoyu asked in confusion, “Why? Isn’t a hygiene license only issued to a restaurant?”

Gu Qingming shook her head and explained, “The hygiene license doesn’t only apply to restaurants. According to the Food Safety Law and the Food Hygiene License Management Measures, any unit and individual who engages in food production and business activities should report to the Health Administration and apply for a hygiene license according to the regulations. After review and approval by the Health Administration, they can engage in food production and business activities and bear the responsibility for food hygiene. This is to ensure food safety.”

The eldest sister-in-law said hesitantly, “But these are all home-cooked food. There shouldn’t be a problem with hygiene, right? Do we still have to apply for a hygiene license?”

Gu Qingming said, “It’s fine if we don’t sell the food we make. However, since we plan to sell it all over the country, we need to ensure food safety. If we sell them to customers, we need a sanitary permit! Moreover, the materials used have to be marked on the food to prevent anyone from developing allergic reactions to the food by mistake. Otherwise, we might get into a lawsuit.”

When Zhou Xiaoyu heard about the lawsuit, she was shocked. She said, “I didn’t expect it to be so serious just by selling a small thing.”

Gu Qingming nodded and said, “Yes. As long as it’s processed food, there has to be a safety and hygiene guarantee!”

Zhou Xiaoyu said, “Alright, I’ll tell them later! But without a workshop and factory, can they get this sanitary license?”

Gu Qingming shook her head and said, “I don’t know. If they really plan to make these food items and sell them online, it’s best to get a hygiene license!”

Zhou Xiaoyu nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll make it clear to them. As for what to do, it’s up to them.”

That would depend on their courage.

Zhou Fangfang said, “The few places we’ve eaten at were goood. If I were a customer, I would definitely be a repeat customer. I might even recommend other customers!”

“Fangfang, you think very highly of this food!” Zhou Xiaoyu smiled and asked, “But you’re a little foodie. If the little foodie says that the food is good, then it’s probably not bad!”

Gu Qingming also agreed. “Sister-in-law, tell them that the things their family makes are not bad. If the things are sold well, they can set up a small workshop!”

Zhou Xiaoyu smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll tell them.”

Zhou Fangfang asked Gu Qingming, “President Gu, how many things are we going to put up in our shop?”

Gu Qingming said, “Those processed foods will not be put on the shelves for the time being. They can be put on the shelves after their hygiene licenses are issued. Other products such as taro, yam, and sweet potatoes can be put on the shelves first.”

Zhou Fangfang nodded and said, “Alright!”

The group went home again.

The company’s office building had not been built yet, so they temporarily moved a room to Third Uncle’s house.

Zhou Fangfang, Gu Qingming, and Shi Yaoqing worked in this room.

In the office, there was a desk, a computer, a fax printer, and a phone.

After Zhou Fangfang returned to the office, she quickly got into work mode and seized the time to complete today’s mission so that she could go home early.

Gu Qingming handed this small matter to Zhou Fangfang.

There were not many things to do and they were simple. Zhou Fangfang could do it alone.

If she could not even complete such a small task, she would have to consider whether Zhou Fangfang could adapt to this job.

Currently, Zhou Fangfang was extremely satisfied with this job.

Although she had only been at work for two days, she felt very fulfilled and could still be with her family every day.

Therefore, she needed to work harder to make Gu Qingming more satisfied and change the probationary arrangements to formal work.
