The Little Lucky Girl.

Chapter 41: Building a Workshop and Raising Silkworms

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the Su family bought a lot of New Year's goods. Aunt Su bought two silk skirts for Su Qing and a pair of silver bracelets!

At the Xiao family's side, Aunt Xiao Eldest and Aunt Xiao Second also prepared several sets of beautiful clothes for Su Qing.

On the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, after everyone finishes their New Year’s Eve dinner and stays up till the New Year comes, the New Year is over!

The 16th day of the first lunar month came, and Su Qing went to the village head and said, "Grandpa, my family will start building a workshop on the 18th day of the first lunar month. Please help me find some people to work. The wages are still 30 cents a day, and one meal is included! Just build a row of houses next to my new house and fence it off!"

"Okay, Qingbao! Grandpa will go and notify them this afternoon!"

"Okay, thank you, Village Chief! I'll be back then!"

After Su Qing finished speaking, she skipped home happily!

When they got home, Su Qing said to Su Zhiyuan, "Dad, please take some time to go to my uncle's house and tell him that we can build the workshop on the 18th day of the first lunar month!"

"Okay, girl! I'll go after lunch!"

...

On the 18th day of the first lunar month, the workshop started working, and everyone worked hard and enthusiastically! Because they all knew that the Su family was good, they paid well and had good food!

The days passed one by one, and after a month, the workshop was built!

Su Qing paid everyone their wages and treated everyone to a sumptuous completion banquet!

In the blink of an eye, it was time for spring plowing. Su Qing took out the potato and sweet potato seeds, cut the ones with sprouts, coated them with wood ash, and planted them in the ground!

Then he prepared an acre of potato and sweet potato seeds and sent them to the village chief, teaching him how to plant them!

I also sent enough potato and sweet potato seeds to Xiao's grandparents' house to plant an acre of land! I didn't return from Xiao's grandparents' house until the seeds were planted!

In the blink of an eye, it was April and the silkworm-raising season had arrived. Su Qing took out the silkworm seeds from the space, prepared many winnowing baskets, and began to raise silkworms. He asked the village head grandmother and several aunts to help raise the silkworms!

The life of a silkworm goes through four stages: silkworm egg, silkworm ant, silkworm pupa and silkworm moth, which takes about fifty days in total!

The house was getting busier and busier, so Su Qing decided to go buy a few people!

"Dad, I want to go buy some people! Things are getting busy at home!"

"Okay, listen to me, baby!"

"Dad, let's buy a carriage! It will be more convenient!"

"Okay, I'll listen to my daughter!"

After lunch, Su Zhiyuan took Su Qing to the dental clinic to buy someone!

It was the same brokerage shop that Su Qing had bought a shop from last time. The broker hurried over to Su Qing when she saw her. "Hey, what are you buying today, little girl?"

"Boss, I want to hire a few people who are good at martial arts. Do you have any such people?"

"Yes, yes, yes"

Su Qing later picked four girls with clear eyes!

"How much silver is it, boss?"

"A total of thirty-six taels"

Su Qing didn't bargain with the matchmaker this time, and directly gave her thirty-six taels of silver! She then went to buy a carriage and took the four maids home!

When they arrived at the Su family, Su Qing asked, "What are your names?"

"Please give me a name, Miss!"

Su Qing thought for a moment and said, "Starting with you, I'll call them: Chuntao, Xiahe, Qiuju, and Dongmei!"

"What do you know?"

“I can cook.”

"I can embroider"

"I will settle the accounts"

"I will hit people"

Su Qing held his forehead and said, "I only want your loyalty. I won't treat you unfairly! If you betray me, I will make her suffer a fate worse than death!" After saying that, he crushed the teacup in his hand into pieces!

Although Su Qing is young, he has the aura of a superior!

The four of them trembled with fear and immediately pledged their loyalty! "We swear to never betray the young lady!"

"From now on, just call me Miss, not Miss!"

"It's a girl!"
