Rebirth, end of the world, time travel, escape famine, make money!

Chapter 431 Party

It is the time for accounting for the first quarter recently. Lin Weizhong has to check the accounts of 21 stores, which will take him several days.

Lin Keyu: "Okay, Aunt Caixia."

Liu Xiaolu was playing in the house with Lin Keyun, who was already over one year old. As soon as Lin Keyun entered the room, he saw that the little kid, who could not walk before, could now walk with clattering steps.

Liu Xiaolu held Lin Keyun's hand, pointed at Lin Keyun and said, "Call me brother!"

"elder brother……"

Lin Keyu goes over to play with the baby!

Time flies so fast!

After dinner, Luo Hong came to the next room. He was very happy that he could be neighbors with his old friend.

The main room was full of people, and Father Liu gathered everyone together.

He briefly told Luo Hong about the family situation, including their respective businesses, the profit sharing ratio, etc.

Liu's father and mother live with Liu Caiyun. Now the family has hired a maid to cook and clean the house. Since Liu's mother will also help take care of Liu Xiaomei at home, there is not much to do.

Liu Caiyun now has five pastry shops, and the business is on the right track. She doesn't have to go to the store every day. She has hired some people and hired some more people.

She only needs to make pastries at home, arrange for someone to deliver them to the store in the morning, and then count the other snacks that are in short supply and purchase them from the food factory.

The food factory was also opened, and the three men Liu Hao, Qu Dingliang and Chu Xiaolong continued to work together. They were used to working together, helping and cooperating with each other.

Most of the workers at the farm are from nearby villages.

Father Liu now gives these young people full authority to do it.

After the academy was built, he invited a scholar from the provincial capital to open an enlightenment class first. The other classes were arranged by Liu's father for family members, and whoever was free could attend the class.

For their family, the enlightenment class now has both boys and girls attending classes. Younger children like Liu Xiaomei and Luo Junning are arranged to attend the class. There are two classes in the morning every day, which does not affect the children's play time.

Older children have four classes in the morning and four classes in the afternoon. In addition to cultural classes, there are also arithmetic classes, handicraft classes, physical education classes, etc.!

These courses were arranged by Liu's father. Now that Luo Hong is back, all the affairs of the college will be handed over to him from now on.

He also has to concentrate on the orchard and garden farm on the back hill.

After completing the construction of the college, Liu Caixia arranged for the construction workers to build a market at the foot of the mountain.

It’s just that after the back mountain was reclaimed, the amount of fruit tree and flower seeds collected was relatively small. So far, less than one-tenth of the fruit trees have been planted in the back mountain. At this rate, it may not be possible to fill up the back mountain this year.

Liu Caixia asked the villagers to plant potatoes and peppers on the back mountain.

The two farms were planted with potatoes and peppers. This was agreed upon with the prime minister. Liu's father took time out to go to the prime minister's farm to help, and all the crops were potatoes.

After all, having enough food to eat is the most important thing for the country now.

At this point, Luo Hong took out another cloth bag from his bundle. He opened the bag and took out small paper bags one by one. "These are the seeds I collected in the state capital. Some of them are seeds that even the store owners can't name. I don't know if they are real or fake, so I bought them all. You can try them. If they grow, that's the best. If they don't, it doesn't matter. It didn't cost much to buy them."

Father Liu took the package, looked through it, and put it on the table beside him: "Lao Luo, do you have any hope of passing the exam this time? I have another piece of news, which was leaked privately by the prefectural chancellor. This year or next year, the prefectural city may organize a government recruitment exam, and some civil servants in the government will be recruited again. For some positions, scholars can take the exam, and for some positions, you need a juren. Under normal circumstances, as long as a juren is not disdainful, he can get a position in the government."

Luo Hong: "I feel it's OK. The specific results will probably be out in about 20 days. Do you remember Chen Ziqi? He also advised me to stay in the prefecture, saying that there are more exams in this area in the prefecture. I refused because I thought our life is pretty good now. Since the prefecture has such an exam, the prefecture city and the county must have one. If I fail the exam, it doesn't matter if I stay in the academy for a long time."

Father Liu: "You should prepare yourself. You should sort out the academy during this period. Once you are formalized, it will be good for the family if you take a position in the government office. We still need to keep an eye on the situation outside. The current situation is too unstable."

Luo Hong nodded, "Yes, that's for sure. Fortunately, we settled in Zhongzhou. After I went to the provincial capital, I heard about some situations in other provinces. Zhongzhou is really more peaceful and stable. I think it is more livable than the capital. Places like the capital have great opportunities and great dangers. There are powerful people everywhere under the feet of the emperor. Ordinary people living in the capital are really living in fear. It's very boring. When I came back and saw the situation of our family, I felt like I had returned to the modern era."

Father Liu: "Yes, I named our village Zhonghua Village. In the future, we will develop ourselves into a family. This is our base camp. Not to mention the faraway places, as long as there are no major changes in the court, our grandchildren will be able to live a worry-free life. That's enough. I have an idea recently to build a refuge base in the deep mountains behind the back mountain. A slightly farther place, seven or eight days or ten days away, to find a secluded place to build a refuge base, store some food in it every year, and each family will store some belongings in it. Even if there are social changes in the future, our descendants will have a place to hide. After the situation stabilizes, they will have the ability and capital to start their lives again."

Luo Hong felt that Father Liu's idea was very good. This was a very good way out. "Sure. The academy now has physical education classes. Later, I will add a class dedicated to martial arts. Haozi and the others will take turns to teach them self-defense techniques. Then I will hire a martial arts master to teach them martial arts."

Liu Hao: "Masters who know martial arts usually don't teach outside. The master-disciple concept is still very strong at this time. It's enough for us to teach. We know the Five Animals Play, Wing Chun, Tai Chi, etc. There is no problem practicing them."

Father Liu: "Sure. When we have some free time later, we can research some mechanical devices. We can research some crossbows to facilitate long-range shooting. Anyway, we can't relax on safety."

Everyone else agreed with what Liu's father said.

Luo Hong distributed the specialties he brought back to each household.

It was getting late, and after seeing that there were no problems at each family, Father Liu let them go back and rest.

Anyway, tomorrow is the time for their regular meeting. The first and fifteenth of every month are the days for regular meetings, and tomorrow is June 1st.

"Okay, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it at the meeting tomorrow afternoon."

Yes, time flies so fast, and half of this year has passed.

They have also become accustomed to their current life.
