Start with three days of hunger and nine meals, and become rich and tempting
Chapter 137 Free Labor
They all smiled at each other.
Having chosen a place to build a workshop, Liu Siyu was eager to build it before the spring plowing.
In the evening, Wang rolled some noodles and specially cut a handful of green leeks to make fried eggs.
She thought about it, then took out a piece of golden bacon from the jar and cut off a small strip.
Liu Siyu was helping to light the fire in front of the stove. She inadvertently saw half a bowl of mixed grain porridge covered under the bamboo basket, and a trace of doubt arose in her heart.
"When did you make the multi-grain porridge? Why do you still have it there?"
Wang hurriedly brought the multi-grain porridge to a corner of the chopping board and covered it carefully.
"I cooked this this morning. There was a little extra. I was thinking of making do with it for lunch, but I didn't expect you to come back."
Liu Siyu thought about the pancakes she had made at noon, so when she came back she just said goodbye to Wang and went to find Carpenter Tan. When she returned home, Wang had already made the pancakes.
The two of them ate a few bites in a hurry and went to find a place to build a workshop. They had no time to go into the kitchen.
Thinking of that half bowl of multi-grain porridge, I couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"What's wrong? Is there no money at home?"
"There is still more than one tael of silver. Do you want to use it?"
Wang didn't think about the multi-grain porridge and thought she needed money.
Liu Siyu glared at her in dissatisfaction.
"Then why do you want to eat multi-grain porridge? Aren't you tired of it after eating it for so many years?"
When Wang heard this, she realized that Liu Siyu felt sorry for her eating multi-grain porridge, and her heart suddenly felt warm.
He smiled and covered it up, "I only eat it occasionally. Besides, no matter how good life is, we can't eat white flour and fine grains every day. Which family can afford to eat like this?"
"Since you came to your senses, our family's life has improved so much. I never dared to imagine such a good life before."
As he spoke, he put the kneaded dough aside to wake up, picked up a kitchen knife, and quickly cut the washed leeks into sections.
"Life is not easy for the Tian family either, and they have many people. You can take the little money back home. I know you don't like to please others, but the Tian family is your husband's family."
"You can't sew or cook, so bring some food back from time to time. Even if it can't improve the family's food, your sister-in-law and sister-in-law won't make things difficult for you for the sake of the food."
Liu Siyu tilted her head and listened quietly to Wang's chatter.
I couldn't help but think that even though Wang had a group of wolf-like family members from her mother's side, she would sometimes be a little confused.
But overall, having such a stepmother is not bad.
Whenever she came back, Wang never hesitated to give her food and drink.
When she needed help, Wang was always the first to come.
No matter how much money she gave or how much work she asked her to do, Wang didn't care.
In fact, she is not perfect. Apart from being able to make a little money with the knowledge she has learned in modern times, she is not really worthy of being considered a high-ranking official in other aspects.
He also had a bad temper. Whenever he was wronged, he would stick his neck out and confront others, even when facing Wang.
But Wang never acted like an elder and demanded that she be filial and obedient. At most, she would retort when she was angry and then carefully apologize to her afterwards.
Thinking of this, my heart couldn't help but feel a little soft.
"I can still earn some money now, so you don't have to be too frugal. If you exhaust yourself, who will help me cook?"
"Once the workshop is built, we will have to cook for more than a dozen people every day, which is not an easy task. If you collapse from exhaustion, I will lose a free laborer, and it will cost a lot of money to hire a cook."
Wang couldn't help but chuckle.
"You girl, you obviously have good intentions, why can't you say something nice? I know you care about me, why do you have to say it's free labor..."
Having said this, Wang suddenly stopped talking.
She suddenly realized, wasn't she such a person too?
Obviously, he has good intentions and really cares about others, but the words he says are always full of thorns.
In this respect, they really look like mother and daughter.
Lying on the bed, Liu Siyu began to rack her brains to think about what the workshop would look like.
The workshop in her mind should have three courtyards.
The first yard is the largest, and several side rooms will be built on both sides to store tools, wood and accommodation for apprentices.
A large yard should be left in the middle and a few big trees should be planted so that people in the outer yard can work under the trees, which is both spacious and convenient.
The second yard is the semi-finished product processing area. To enter this yard, one must at least have a certain level of skills and be considered an intermediate worker. The model is similar to that of the first yard.
The last courtyard is where the finished products are assembled. In addition to building a few rooms on both sides for the master chefs to stay at and Carpenter Tan to work in, the courtyard also needs to be renovated.
Build a large pavilion in the middle of the yard to cover the entire yard, but it should be higher than the yard.
This can not only protect against wind and rain, but also make the yard brighter.
As for the arrangement of the workers, Liu Siyu also had his own ideas in mind.
She was silently planning everything in her mind, and before she knew it, daybreak had arrived.
Spring plowing is about to begin, and she doesn't have much time to waste.
As soon as day broke, they rushed to the town without stopping.
I originally wanted to find Manager Han, but when I arrived at Qingfeng Tower, I learned that Manager Han had gone to Cangzhou and would not be back for ten days or half a month.
Liu Siyu couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, and the waiter hurriedly reminded her.
"Miss Siyu, my young master has returned. He specifically told me yesterday that you should inform him when you arrive."
Liu Siyu's eyes lit up. How could she forget about Han Dongyi?
If Han Dongyi is interested, once the workshop is built, Manager Han will naturally help.
Thinking of this, I immediately went upstairs with a smile on my face to wait.
When Han Dongyi saw Liu Siyu, he was very happy, but the words he said were a bit sour.
"Aren't you married? Why do you still need to come out to make money?"
As he spoke, the corner of his mouth curled up.
"Is it possible that your new husband can't support you?"
Liu Siyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This man seemed to live for trouble. Every time they met, if he didn't say something to her, it was like life was missing some spice.
Could it be that this boy is still brooding over the prank she played on him last time?
But the workshop is about to start, everything is ready, only the east wind is missing.
She was in urgent need of someone who was both rich and well-connected, and Han Dongyi in front of her could barely be considered someone who met the requirements.
Thinking of this, Liu Siyu's face was immediately filled with smiles. Who cares? It wouldn't hurt to get stabbed a few times.
He immediately said flatteringly: "Hello, Young Master. I haven't seen you for a few days. You look more radiant than ever!"
"Hmph..." Han Dongyi's face was full of disdain, and his eyes were almost rolling up to the sky.
"Stop being so attentive to me. What do you want from me today?"
Liu Siyu blinked her eyes, her heart full of confusion. What was going on?
It was clearly this guy who said he had something to talk to her about, so why did he have such an attitude when he opened his mouth?
However, since the words had already been spoken, she had to give him some way out.
"Oh, it's nothing serious, I just want to ask how the sales of fermented bean curd and rice wine are going?"
"I knew you had no good intentions with me."
As Han Dongyi spoke, he took out a purse from his pocket and threw it on the table with a "bang".
