A tragic journey through ancient times, trying to make money

Sun Miaoyan: "Ayan, mother and the others have left, so I will go back to the government office first." Then she looked at Zhang Yunyue: "Yueyue, come to the government office when you have time, Qingyu and the others like you very much."

Zhang Yunyue: "Okay, sister-in-law, I will go when I am free."

Sun Miaoyan took the three children into the carriage. Mo Yan and Zhang Yunyue watched the servant from the government office drive the carriage away.

Mo Yan saw that everyone else had left, and there were only three of them left at the city gate.

"Yueyue, let's go back."

"Ah."

Today, Mo Wen drove the carriage carrying Mo Yan to Zhang's house to pick up Zhang Yunyue.

This time, when they returned, they naturally rode in the same carriage.

Mo Wen sat in the front of the carriage and drove the carriage back.

It has been a long time since he last saw his family in the capital, and this time they met for less than a month. After Xiao Qiang and the others left, Mo Yan became a little depressed.

Zhang Yunyue held Mo Yan's hand, as if giving Mo Yan some warmth.

"Ayan, I may not have the chance to accompany you back to the capital this year. I will accompany you back to the capital next year."

Mo Yan's emotions were brought back to normal by Zhang Yunyue's words.

He pulled his hand out of Zhang Yunyue's hand and held Zhang Yunyue's hand instead.

He smiled and said, "Thank you, Yueyue."

Zhang Yunyue didn't say anything, just shook her head.

"By the way, Yueyue, my mother and her family left today. When are you going to open a branch in the county?"

"Well, huh? Then let's pack up in the next two days and set off the day after tomorrow! I have almost arranged everything here. Brother Xiaochao and the second brother have been gone for several days, so we have to speed up our pace."

"Okay, I'll pack my things tomorrow and come to Zhang's house the day after tomorrow morning, and then we'll set off together."

"Yeah, okay."

"By the way, Yueyue, the July Shop in the capital received a letter a few days ago. It has now opened for business. The letter said that as soon as the July Shop opened, it attracted many dignitaries. For example, many birthday cakes have been booked."

"Really."

The successful opening of July Square in the capital city can be regarded as Zhang Yunyue’s first step into the capital city.

“Of course, and birthday cakes are not cheap in Beijing, but people still flock to them, and for the rich and powerful, eating this birthday cake is already a form of competition.

I have already talked to the senior managers here and have asked other prefectures to start buying and renovating shops immediately. In a few days, a group of dim sum chefs will be sent to you. After they have learned well, they will be sent to the July Squares that are about to open in various prefectures.

There are a total of fifteen prefectures in the entire Yuanqi Kingdom. Excluding Yunzhou and the capital, there are still thirteen prefectures left. This time, I plan to have the managers of each prefecture start decorating together so that we can open as soon as possible."

"You are faster here. You have people under you, so everything is more convenient. Now I can only train people slowly."

"It's okay, Yueyue, I'll be with you."

"Well, don't worry! I won't be defeated by these. By the way, Ah Yan, you can just send the people to Zhang's house. Even if we are not here, Butler Liu will know how to arrange it."

"Okay, I'll have someone pack the luggage tomorrow, and we'll set off early the day after tomorrow."

"Ah."

Mo Yan sent Zhang Yunyue back to Zhang’s house in Yunyue Lane.

After saying goodbye to Mo Yan, Zhang Yunyue asked Liu Chuping to sort out how many paintings the scholars in the academy had copied in the past few days.

"Miss, I looked at the number of paintings registered here. There are about fifty paintings every day. Now there are nearly two hundred paintings in total."

Two hundred, plus my own, there should be about five hundred. If each store has sixty or seventy pictures, it can decorate about eight stores, which is the amount for four counties.

"Okay, I'll be leaving in two days. Uncle Liu, you watch these scholars continue to copy. The more the better. If they have classmates who recommend them, you can let them stay after you have reviewed them and found no problem with them.

Also, you have to pay attention to the dental clinic. If there is no response, go and ask them and urge them. Once the county store starts to be renovated, the chef and the shopkeeper must be staffed immediately."

Liu Chuping stood in front of Zhang Yunyue and said respectfully: "Okay, Miss, I will make sure these things are done well."

Zhang Yunyue suddenly thought of the three sons of housekeeper Liu, who were usually very diligent and efficient in doing things in the house.

"Uncle Liu, let me ask you, the three brothers Wen Xiang are all literate, right?"

"Well, yes, miss, I wonder what is the purpose of your asking this question?"

"Uncle Liu, do you want to let the three of them follow me? My eldest brother and the others are out, and I happen to be short of manpower. You know, as more and more stores are opened, I can't always follow them to other cities in the future, so I will definitely need more manpower.

If you agree, let them follow me. They can learn from me this time and gain experience. As long as they are willing to learn, they will have more opportunities in the future."

Liu Chuping spoke without hesitation: "Miss, I agree, I agree, thank you for your grace." After he finished speaking, Liu Chuping immediately squatted down and kowtowed to Zhang Yunyue to express his gratitude.

Liu Chu knew that as long as he stayed with the young lady and did his job well, he might be able to become a manager in the future.

Not to mention the eldest and second sons, just look at the two brothers Xiaochao and Li Hai, they all came from the village with the young lady, and now they have all traveled around with the young lady, and Xiaochao is now the manager.

If the three sons stayed in Zhang's house, they would always be servants. At most, the young lady would let them take over her position as housekeeper, but it would take many years for that to become a reality.

Besides, usually only the young lady stays here a little longer, and the eldest master and his friends almost treat this place as a place to rest, so this housekeeper is actually almost the same as a gatekeeper.

Now I have the opportunity to go out and explore the world with the young lady, and I still have hope.

Zhang Yunyue was also frightened by Liu Chuping's kneeling, and quickly raised his hand to let Liu Chuping stand up: "Uncle Liu, get up quickly! Call Wen Xiang and his brothers first and ask them what they think."

After Liu Chuping stood up, he quickly responded, "Hey, hey, hey, miss, I'll go right away, I'll go right away."

Zhang Yunyue could guess what Liu Chuping was thinking. Every parent hopes that their children can succeed and achieve something.

Looking at Liu Chuping who was running anxiously, Zhang Yunyue could only laugh helplessly.

Liu Chuping called Liu Wen and the three brothers into the main hall. On the way there, he repeated what the young lady had said to them.

Looking at the three people behind Liu Chuping, Liu Wenxiang and his three brothers all had excitement on their faces.

"Miss."

"Well, when Uncle Liu went to call you just now, he should have told you what I said to him. I want to ask you what you think and whether you are willing to follow me."

Liu Wenxiang and his three brothers immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Miss, we are willing to follow you."

"Okay, you guys get up first! In that case, pack your bags tomorrow and we'll leave the day after tomorrow. This time we'll probably be away for at least a month."
