Traveling through ancient times, storing supplies and not fleeing famine

Ye Chaoer and the others settled down quickly. After Xia Shengsheng returned home, Shanshan was the only child left at home. The sudden sense of gap still made her feel uncomfortable.

Because Jin Ling and his wife also went to Ning'an Mansion to take care of the three boys, the responsibility of cooking at home fell into the hands of Master Li and Mr. Yang, and of course Xia Shengsheng would also help.

After all, she still likes cooking.

Because the children in the family all went out to school, Doctor Zhao no longer liked to come for meals. He always said that the Xia family was too quiet now and it would be better for him to eat at home.

Xia Shengsheng could only ask someone to send some food to Doctor Zhao after cooking each time.

Now it's not like the first few years. Do we have to make conditions when sending food to Doctor Zhao?

After several years of getting along, Xia Shengsheng has long regarded Doctor Zhao as a family member, so he always thinks of Doctor Zhao whenever something happens.

The factory has been completed and the houses next to the chicken coop have also been built.

Craftsman Chen had been busy at Xia Shengsheng's place for more than a month, and the work was finally finished.

On the day of completion, Xia Shengsheng specially stuffed some silver into the hands of craftsman Chen, but craftsman Chen still refused to accept any money, so Xia Shengsheng had to give up.

The factory was left to dry for a total of five days. Xia Shengsheng had prepared all the necessary tools from Qiqi, and they were ready to officially start work.

More than 100 newly recruited employees arrived at Kaoshan Village almost at the moment the sun rose. Everyone was afraid that arriving late would give Xia Shengsheng a bad impression, so they would rather get up early and rush to Kaoshan Village before dawn.

Among the more than 100 new employees, several are responsible for cooking for everyone. After all, there are now more than 200 employees in total, and the three women who cooked before might not be able to handle it alone, so a few more people were added to the cooking team.

The rest of the people were divided into two groups, one joined the vermicelli factory and the other joined the instant noodle factory.

The original instant noodle factory has moved out of the building behind the vermicelli factory and moved into the new factory building.

It would be better to separate the two factories and manage them separately.

When Tao Wuji's manager picked up the goods this time, he also made it clear that if the quantity picked up next time was larger, he would be able to accept it without Tao Wuji asking in person.

It is true that business is recovering better and better now, and vermicelli and instant noodles are becoming less and less popular. Now only a few towns are open for business, and many places dare not let go.

So after knowing that Xia Shengsheng had expanded the factory, he was even more anxious to expand the business as quickly as possible.

Another advantage of having old employees is that Xia Shengsheng only needs to take charge of the overall situation and no longer needs to teach each person hand-in-hand. Instead, he can let other old employees train new employees.

Naturally, there will be certain rewards for good leadership, so that everyone can teach attentively and get everyone involved more quickly.

After the factory gradually got back on track, the chicken farm also received a large number of half-grown chicks, and now there are more than 2000 chicks in total.

In order to prevent the chickens from getting sick, Xia Shengsheng specially bought some modern anti-bird flu drugs to feed them.

She didn't want to work hard for several months only to be faced with dead bodies on the ground, so she had to take good care of it.

After Tao Wuji and his son finished their family business, they didn't even have time to go home, but went straight to see Yi Yi who was studying in Linyi Prefecture.

It was as if he was afraid that Yi Yi would suffer any injustice.

I felt relieved only after seeing Yiyi and knowing that she was doing well.

Seeing that it was time for Yi Yi to go to class, Tao Wuji hurriedly urged her to go back to school. The father and son stood outside the gate of the academy, quietly watching Yi Yi's figure disappear.

"Let's go! Go and tell Manager Tang a few words. We still have to go back to Hui'an Prefecture! The daughter of Magistrate Zhang has returned from her hometown. We don't want to keep her waiting for too long!" Tao Wuji mounted his horse and waited for Tao Siyuan.

Tao Siyuan lowered his head, looking a little dejected.

"Dad! Can't we not get married? Even if we do get married, can't I choose by myself? Why do you have to force me to marry this daughter or that daughter?"

Tao Wuji sighed and said, "You are already 20 years old this year, and you are still waiting for your own choice. If you can choose, you can get married this year, and I won't stop you. Although the daughter of Magistrate Zhang is a concubine's daughter, I heard that she has good character and is gentle. If we marry Magistrate Zhang, it will also be good for our business.

Dad doesn't mean to use your marriage as a business. If you like a girl from another family, Dad will propose to you. But you don't even have a target. Can't your father worry about you?

I'd like to choose a wife with good character and understanding for you, and her family can help our Tao family's business, isn't that great?"

Tao Siyuan looked in the direction of the academy again, thinking about the departing figure, and finally shook his head.

He looked at his father and replied, "Okay."

He rode away on horseback with his father.

Tao Wuji also wants his child to find someone he likes, but no matter how many times he asks Tao Siyuan this question, there is no clear answer.

When I think about the fact that Tao Siyuan has been living in the Xia family for the past few years and has never met any other rich girls, where can she find so many people she likes?

He is already 20 years old. If he wants to get engaged and married, he must be at least 21 years old. At such an old age, if his father doesn't help him and take care of him, will he be left single for the rest of his life?

If you are so concerned, you will definitely find a woman whose family conditions match his and whose character is good to be your relative.

It's no wonder that he is blinded by greed.

……

Dean Feng is a particularly open-minded teacher, and he is also a teacher with a very broad range of knowledge.

Yiyi learned a lot of new knowledge that she had never been exposed to before from Dean Feng.

The academy's curriculum was quite tight, so the women who came to study there were exactly the same as the men, and they would not miss out on any of the six arts required of a gentleman.

Gradually, the reputation of the academy grew.

Although there were many feudal people in ancient times, there were also many enlightened ones.

The most noble royal princesses and daughters also learned it widely, so many families also became the objects of imitation for those in power.

This brought more students to Dean Feng.

However, few children from ordinary families were sent here to study.

Even for those whose families are not well-off, Dean Feng would waive their tuition fees as long as they come to study, but few families are willing to send their daughters there.

This gave Dean Feng a headache, but she was still very calm.

Her college has only been established for less than a year, so it is understandable that there are few students.

Perhaps over time, people will gradually accept this new type of women's college.

By then, more and more girls will come to school, and more and more academies will be opened. There will be no need to worry about some unenlightened people opposing girls' education.
