Traveling through ancient times, storing supplies and not fleeing famine

After a long journey, Xia Shengsheng and others finally returned home, more than half a month after they left home.

For more than half a month, I have really become a hands-off boss, letting go of all the household affairs and not worrying about Xia Shengsheng at all! !

Tao Wuji only replied the day before Xia Shengsheng returned.

Tao Wuji has been going out to sea with Tao Siyuan during this period, so he has not come to Kaoshan Village in the past few months. He only asked the steward to come and do business with them.

This time the letter was delivered to him with great difficulty. After receiving the letter, he immediately contacted the manager of Linyi Prefecture and also replied to Xia Shengsheng's letter.

The letter clearly stated that Xia Shengsheng could rest assured.

He would ask the steward in Linyi Prefecture to inquire about the location of Miss Feng's academy, and have the steward send two reliable people to obey Yi Yi's orders. If there was anything, they would handle it.

After they finish their work, they will go to Linyi Prefecture in person to see how Yiyi is doing.

Xia Shengsheng was very grateful for this.

After all, girls are not like boys. When they are away from home, they always want to have more relatives and friends to help take care of them, just in case something happens, they have someone to look after them.

Otherwise, being so far away, Xia Shengsheng would always be worried.

With Tao Wuji's words, Xia Shengsheng felt much more at ease.

The new factory has been built for the most part and it is estimated that it will be completed in another three to five days.

Xia Shengsheng asked the villagers to help spread the news and tell people around them the recruitment date.

This time, Xia Shengsheng plans to recruit about 100 employees, and the number of people needed is still quite a lot, so anyone who wants to work for Xia Shengsheng can come and apply, and the salary and benefits will naturally remain the same as before.

If you do a good job, your salary can be increased in the future.

Those who are capable can become team leaders, deputy supervisors, supervisors and other positions, and their salaries will naturally be higher.

As soon as this news was released, Kaoshan Village instantly became the focus of the entire Ning'an Prefecture.

The news spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and almost everyone knew that the Xia family in Kaoshan Village was recruiting female workers, and the salary and benefits were the same as those for men. Not only that, they would also be provided with a meal at noon every day.

So on the actual day of recruiting, hundreds of women and girls gathered outside the Xia family's door, and a few men also came to join in the fun.

However, Xia Shengsheng has made it clear that only female workers will be recruited this time. After all, it is not as easy for women to find jobs as men. If the conditions are the same, Xia Shengsheng still hopes to give more women some opportunities.

Because there were too many people, Xia Shengsheng, with the help of Ma Dajia, Li Erjia, and Pan Meili, worked from morning till sunset to finally decide on 112 people to work.

Those who were selected were cheering, and those who were not selected were inevitably disappointed.

But this time it went unexpectedly smoothly, at least those who were not elected did not cause trouble.

After confirming the start time with the selected people and signing the work contract, we let everyone go back.

The entire Kaoshan Village finally became quiet as the sun set! !

"Huh... We've been busy all day. Thank you for your hard work, Manager Ma, Manager Li, and Manager Pan. The factory should have finished work by now, right? You guys should go back and have a rest! We can talk about anything tomorrow!"

"Yes, Boss!!"

After seeing off the last few people, Xia Shengsheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't expect that recruiting workers would be so tiring.

The fences of the chicken coop at home have been built. As for the house next to the chicken coop, we have to wait until the factory is completed and then we will ask craftsman Chen to help build it. It will take about ten days.

Once the house has been aired a bit, you can move in.

Back home, Xia Yi and a few others followed Xia Shengsheng's instructions and bought a total of 145 half-grown chicks, both male and female, and put them in the newly built chicken coop, but they didn't feel that there were too many.

These 100-odd chickens are indeed a little few, so more chicks will be purchased. The women in the village who can hatch chicks are rushing to hatch them, otherwise it will be too late.

Some people who have never hatched chicks before will choose some fertilized eggs and try to hatch them, thinking that if they really hatch, they can sell them for some money to supplement their family expenses. After all, no one would have too much money!

Since returning, Ye Chao and Er Cheng have been studying the martial arts secrets borrowed from Nanjia every day, and sometimes they would demonstrate the moves in the yard.

Nanga always came over to give them guidance when he was not working.

Xia Shengsheng saw this and confirmed her guess. This Nanjia was definitely not from Niutou Town. His identity was definitely closely related to Ye Chao! !

The flaws could already be seen when he was teaching the two children martial arts moves.

Nanjia had already noticed Xia Shengsheng's suspicion of him, but he had the principle that if you don't ask, I won't make excuses to answer, so he just pretended that he knew nothing until now.

Sicheng would occasionally learn one or two moves from them, but he was always inconsistent. So far, he is only a little stronger than the other kids in the village and knows a few more martial arts skills.

But the older I get, the less I go out and play with the children in the village.

Instead, they often surrounded Xia Shengsheng and asked him about business matters.

When it comes to doing business, Xia Shengsheng actually just focuses on novelty, and doesn't know any business skills. Perhaps the current stable development of her business is entirely due to Tao Wuji. If there were no Tao stain remover, she might not have been able to sell many of her products until now!

But I thought that as long as I could expand these family businesses and let Sicheng learn and manage them, his future prospects would not be bad.

But you have to learn more than just business. You can't just rely on Mr. Yang for studying.

Ms. Yang is a woman after all. Although she is very knowledgeable, her views on knowledge are definitely different from those of men.

Therefore, Xia Shengsheng planned to send a few children to Ning'an Prefecture to study in the next few days.

In order not to delay Ye Chao and Er Cheng's martial arts practice, he planned to let Xia San and Nanjia go to the provincial capital to rent a house.

As for Sicheng who wants to learn the Business Sutra, he can invite a teacher who is good at this subject to teach him at home.

Master Zhu from Niutou Town has not been heard from since the disaster. There is no decent private school in Niutou Town now, so Xia Shengsheng wanted to send several children to study in the provincial capital.

The opinions of several children were also sought in this regard. Since Xia Shengsheng's arrangements were appropriate, the children naturally listened to Xia Shengsheng's opinions.

After all, studying is the right path! Even if they don't want to take the imperial examination, studying will be of great help to their future path.
