The female general of the last days returned to ancient times to raise a young prostitute
Chapter 195 It’s better to keep a low profile
It was already evening when Mo Rao and his group returned to the village.
At this time, Mo Qingshan and his wife had also returned from Zhang's house, and the three siblings of the Zhang family also came back with their carriage.
It was just because they had to start working after the New Year. Zhang Lin had to go to the provincial capital to work, leaving his brother and sister in the village. He was definitely worried, so he just followed his brother-in-law's carriage back.
The three brothers and sisters were once pitied by everyone in Zhangjia Village, but now they are envied by everyone.
Especially Zhang Wan'er's mother, every time she heard news about the Mo family, tears of regret kept flowing into her stomach.
If the Mo family boy had married another girl, she might not have been so upset. But he had to marry the girl next door. The family had lived little better than beggars, but now they were so glamorous and beautiful. The most important thing was that they would pop up in front of her from time to time, making it hard for her to forget them.
When she saw the couple driving a carriage past her house, her heart felt more bitter than if she had fallen into a bitter gourd, and her mouth and heart were extremely bitter.
Mrs. Zhang was not the only one feeling upset. On the second day of the New Year, when Zhang Wan returned to her parents' home, she and her husband also returned with holiday gifts. When they saw Zhang Lanlan wearing a silver hairpin and brocade clothes, they realized that her figure had become more well-proportioned and she was no longer the skeleton she used to be.
When she got off the carriage, she looked like a noble lady from a wealthy family.
Zhang Wan's jealousy suddenly reached its peak. Not to mention a horse carriage, her husband's family didn't even have an ox cart. But she heard that the Mo family not only had a horse carriage, but also an ox cart, a big house, and a horse carriage.
In Zhang Wan's mind, the life Zhang Lanlan lives now is like that of a rich lady. She is extremely envious and jealous.
There is no comparison between her man and Mo Qingshan. Not only in looks, but also in money. She is out of her mind. She doesn't want a man with such good conditions, but chooses this useless man in front of her.
But there is no medicine for regret now, even if I regret it, I can only feel sad in my heart.
After the Mo family celebrated the New Year, the restaurants were also about to open. On the third day of the New Year, the two restaurants were already open.
Eleven also took the money to go to other prefectures to expand business. Mo Rao didn't need to worry too much about the business, as all the restaurants were based on the current restaurant style.
After the Chinese New Year, Mo Qingshan began to prepare for the grocery store.
The Mo family still agreed with Mo Qingshan's idea. It was good to have a profitable business. Although Mo Rao had never thought of keeping it to herself, she still supported her family members having their own business. She understood the principle that it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.
After the mountain road is repaired, construction of the house can only begin after the weather warms up.
Mo Rao didn't want to waste this time, so he organized some people to cut down all the trees on the first mountain. After the cut tree trunks were dried, they were made into charcoal, which was considered to be making full use of them.
The charcoal must be made by one of our own people, so we can be at ease. So Twelve went to the pawnshop to buy some servants, and they were all honest and simple men.
With these people's indentures in hand, there is no need to worry about them having any bad intentions.
Mo Rao gave Twelve the method of making charcoal, and Twelve did his best to arrange it. Twelve was fully responsible for everything that happened afterwards.
Cleaning up the entire mountain is a huge project and it will probably take at least a year or two to be completed.
This forest is connected to the Nanzhou Mountains, so there is no need to worry about trees being cut down and land being lost.
These people are happy to have work to do. They are not afraid of hard work or fatigue. They are just afraid that their children and wives at home will not have enough to eat. What they fear most is going hungry, so they work very hard.
But no one expected that this world would save their lives one day in the future.
The villages surrounding Mojia Village, including Mojia Village, are all located on the hilltop because of Mo Rao's family. Their lives have changed dramatically. As long as there is strong labor in the family and they can work, they all work on Mo Rao's construction site.
If there are special circumstances at home, there are no men, or the men are disabled, and only women earn money to support the family, Mo Rao will also give the women suitable work to do. Even if the wages are a little lower, these people will still be grateful.
If it weren't for the royal dividend, Mo Rao would have had a hard time supporting the renovations in the mountains with the money he had.
The temperature in the valley is higher than that outside the mountain. Although it is still freezing outside, weeds have already begun to sprout in the valley.
Seeing that the temperature in the valley was suitable, the matter of building a house was put on the agenda.
There were many people working, but the ones working in the valley were still the same people who had worked before. The reason was not that others were unwilling to go, but Mo Rao had chosen those people. It was impossible for all the tree stumps in the valley to be surrounded and there was no danger, and then let others take advantage of it for free.
The wages for working in the deep mountains and working on the outskirts of the mountains are very different. Working in the valley pays higher wages and is not dangerous, so who wouldn't be happy? Moreover, if the progress is fast, the red envelopes are also generous.
So everyone worked with all their might, no one was greedy for that day's wages, and everyone just wanted to finish the work quickly.
The materials for building the house were prepared in advance, and the foundation was laid before the New Year. Because there were so many people, the house was completed in less than a month.
After the house was completed, Mo Rao not only settled everyone's wages, but also gave each person a red envelope of five taels.
Everyone who received the money happily put the silver carefully in their arms.
Once the house is built, renovations can begin. The people who will be chosen to do the renovations are the same people who worked on the restaurant. After all, these people have experience with renovations and don't need Mo Rao's guidance. The process will be much faster, relatively speaking.
The oil was also shipped in one after another, and the oil separators were also completed, but they were too big and too conspicuous, and the whole body was made of iron, so it was not good if anything was leaked out. We just had to wait until the decoration was completed and shipped in at night, otherwise everyone would spread rumors to me and I would spread rumors to you, and who knows what would be leaked out.
The entire separator is made of iron. The imperial court has control over iron products. If it weren't for the agricultural machinery produced in the capital, the use of iron products would not have increased.
She didn't want to cause trouble for Master Yang, so it was better to keep a low profile.
Madam, why are you building this thing in the mountains? When Li Lingye saw the fireplace, he immediately thought of the basement of the Xiangyun Restaurant in Fucheng. This fireplace was five times larger than the one in Fucheng. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was used for iron smelting.
You won't understand even if I tell you. This will be my experimental base from now on. No one is allowed in, and you are no exception. Mo Rao said teasingly with a smile.
Madam, we are a family. It’s a bit too much for you to say that! Li Ling said with a wronged look.
I'm not targeting you! This base was built here because it's dangerous, so it's better to stay close to it.
As you can see, this fireplace is just for burning glassware, nothing fancy.
Mo Rao naturally didn't want to tell Li Lingye too much. After all, he was a member of the royal family, and the things she created were not something that could be found in this era. She didn't want to be treated as a monster, or the subject of an experiment, or lose her freedom and be forced to work illegally for the rest of her life.
Li Lingye was still a little skeptical when he heard that this woman was making glass. If there were no iron mines around, he would really think that this woman was trying to smelt iron privately.
We'll see what the actual situation is when the time comes.
Their family's case in the capital has been cleared up, and his family has returned to the imperial city. As for the princess's mansion, the emperor is afraid that the prince consort and others will become desperate, so he has been trying to deal with them.
