The girl traveled through another world and forced the prince to take the imperial examination

Zhou's Inn, Daxing Town.

Early in the morning, Lady Wang hurried to the inn. For two days in a row, Lady Wang pulled Mu Qingcheng out of bed and bombarded her with questions about her backpack.

Mu Qingcheng answered each question with sleepy eyes, and if they couldn't answer the questions, the two of them would discuss them together.

Mu Qingcheng's designs were quickly completed with the help of Wang Niangzi's skillful hands. The moment she saw the finished product, Mu Qingcheng became more confident in this business.

She was also thinking about making the bag more stylish and closer to the women's backpacks of later generations. She could try using leather to make a leather bag.

Yesterday, the diligent Lady Wang recommended three girls with excellent embroidery skills to Mu Qingcheng. Mu Qingcheng, impressed by their honesty and reliability, arranged for them to begin work at Lady Wang's home tomorrow. They were to begin by making a batch of backpacks, with a goal of fifty. Since the backpacks didn't require embroidery, the three of them estimated they could complete the task in ten days.

Madam Wang is responsible for developing new products and turning Mu Qingcheng's drawings into finished products.

The working hours were arranged from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM daily, with Lady Wang providing lunch and a day off on the first and fifteenth day of each month. The monthly salary was 500 wen.

When the embroiderers heard that the wages were so high, they were overjoyed. To them, embroidery was not work, and if they met a family that favored boys over girls, sitting there embroidering would be considered laziness.

If they wanted to sell their embroidery and earn a few cents in pocket money, they had to embroider secretly. In a month, they could only embroider one or two handkerchiefs and earn ten cents.

Now, they can sit there and embroider openly, earning five hundred coins a month! Their family still treats them as honored, and it would be a source of pride for others to know about it.

Mu Qingcheng had drafted an employee contract yesterday, a modified one based on later generations' contracts. She read it to Yun Qing, asking him to revise it. Yun Qing pondered for a moment, then picked up a pen and wrote down the contract she had outlined, word for word.

Yun Qing praised Mu Qingcheng's employment contract in his heart. This employment contract was very novel. Unlike a contract of sale, it was binding on the employee. He really couldn't find any fault with it.

After Mu Qingcheng finished dealing with Jin Yuhe's backpack, she sat down to have dinner with Yun Qing.

"Yunqing, when will Xiao Hei come back? He's been gone for two days." She leaned forward halfway and whispered, "Donghu Village is so close to Laochen Village, I hope he won't be in trouble!"

Yun Qing's eating movements were very elegant, and it was a delight to watch. Suddenly, someone approached, bringing a breeze to his face, which made his heart palpitate. Yun Qing calmly put down his chopsticks, took out a notebook from his pocket, and wrote on it: "I must be back tonight. It's not suitable to travel during the day, but I will definitely be back at night. If I don't come back tonight, then don't come back at all."

Xiao Hei, who was being missed by his master, sneezed constantly, wondering if he had caught a cold. He wondered if he was being too hypocritical. After being seriously injured, his body had become too weak. How could he continue to be a secret guard for his master?

"Oh! Being your employee is so pitiful." Mu Qingcheng was so envious and felt sorry for Xiao Hei! Employees who were willing to sacrifice themselves for their boss were so rare! And he actually looked down on them.

Mu Qingcheng said sourly: "You are such a hard-working boss. If you don't want me anymore one day, just throw it to me. I want it!"

Yun Qing: “…”

She wanted his Dragon Shadow Guard? ...Not impossible!

Yun Qing thought about his Dragon Shadow Guards. Although he had few available, her safety was also important. When his Dragon Shadow Guards arrived, he would carefully select two for her.

He heard Mu Qingcheng calling him again.

"Yunqing! How about we rent a house nearby?"

Yun Qing was stunned! This time, without even taking out her notebook, she mouthed the question, "Why?"

Of course, it's because the inn is inconvenient! Mu Qingcheng thought that after Xiao Hei found the medicine box, Yun Qing would start to detoxify. Her backpacking career had already begun. Once Yun Qing's poison was detoxified, she would also usher in a new life.

Mu Qingcheng planned to rent a house nearby. After all, Yun Qing wouldn't stay here for long. Once her backpack business took off and she had enough money, she would buy a small house in the county town and continue developing backpack-related products.

In a few years, when her career has stabilized, she can become a hands-off manager. She wants to travel, and when she's tired, she'll find a beautiful place to settle down, where she can enjoy the day, three meals a day, and four seasons. How comfortable it would be. The more Mu Qingcheng thought about it, the more she felt that the future would be beautiful.

So, she began to deceive Yun Qing: "I heard from Doctor Ma that you have to force the poison out of you yourself. It's quite dangerous. Doctor Ma went up the mountain to collect herbs. He said that he would use them to force the poison out of you. He also wanted to give you a medicinal bath, saying that it can protect your meridians. So! Think about it, for such a dangerous thing, shouldn't you find a quiet place where no one will disturb you?

Although Mr. and Mrs. Zhou are nice people, this is an inn after all, and the environment is so messy. I don't know how long it will take for your poison to be completely cleared. It's impossible to live in this inn for a long time! That's why I thought about renting a house first."

So that's how it is! Yun Qing didn't expect this girl to be so considerate of him.

He had to wait for the Dragon Shadow Guard and stay here for another month. After that, he had to find a way to rescue the others. This would take more than a month, so renting a house would be more convenient. He nodded and agreed.

Mu Qingcheng immediately contacted Zhou Da, saying it would be best to ask someone she knew about renting a house. Mu Qingcheng became increasingly satisfied with Zhou Da. He was a man with a quick mind and a knack for reading people's expressions. In modern parlance, he had high emotional intelligence. This was going to be her future steward.

"Mr. Mu and Miss want to rent a house? Do you think the room rates in my inn are too high? Miss and I are partners, so you can rest assured and stay here. I won't charge you any rent."

Mu Qingcheng began to deceive Zhou Dadao again: "Brother Zhou, you don't know, we suffered a lot when we went out this time, and we were robbed by bandits. Now we dare not go home like this. So, my cousin went to the county town to find a messenger to deliver a letter to our family in Yunzhou, asking them to send someone to pick us up."

Zhou Da nodded and said, "That's right!"

"So, this round trip will take one or two months. My brother still has to study for the imperial examination, so we can't let him miss out on his studies. He also likes quiet time, so it's more convenient to rent a house."

Yun Qing's brows twitched slightly when she heard her talk about taking the imperial examination. Seeing how serious she was, she wondered if she was going to do it for real!

Zhou Dada's son was a scholar. When he heard that Yun Qing wanted to study for the imperial examination, he nodded repeatedly and said, "Miss Mu is right. A scholar's time is precious and cannot be wasted. I will go out and ask around. I'll find you a quiet courtyard."

"There's no need to trouble Brother Zhou to go in person. Just find a pawnbroker to do it."

Zhou Da waved his hand and said, "It's not that I don't trust them, but those Ziya people are good at ripping off outsiders. Now that they know you're from outside, they're just going to trick you."

Mu Qingcheng was stunned. That's right! This isn't her era. This is the evil old society! Okay! She was naive.
