Traveling through time as a peasant girl to turn things around

Cutting—Art Design. Guoguo drew blueprints and designed new clothes for the Lunar New Year. The new clothes sold out in a single day after they were released to the store. Chai Tao had to work overtime to catch up. She now had 55 employees, plus over a dozen extra people from the palace working overtime every day. Sixty or seventy people worked overtime every day to create the clothes, but they couldn't sell them. Guoguo thought about it and decided to have them machine-made. The fashionable clothes, though without embroidery, were simple, understated, and luxurious. This greatly increased production and kept prices low.

Machines cannot produce high-end fashion clothes for a long time, so they are more popular - the quantity is larger and the profit is greater.

The twelfth lunar month arrived, and machines began mass production, catering to the general public. My family also needed clothes, and the employees had to work overtime, so everyone had to make a set, no less. Old Lady Li and Li Ru both helped make clothes, making clothes for their families. However, they still needed help from the handicraft department, as they couldn't make the silk and satin material themselves, which would be worn during the New Year's visit to the palace. The women's department was even busier. With only tens of thousands of taels of silver to earn a day, Guoguo couldn't bear to waste her time, so she had no choice but to make one set for each person. I wouldn't make any for myself, but I'd wear last year's down jacket and make do with what I had.

Guoguo decisively ordered that more female workers who could produce handicrafts be trained next year, and that high-end custom products be produced.

……

Daily necessities are in short supply, so Guoguo is planning to build a factory. He needs his own factory. For example, alkaline noodles and sugar, the others are purchased and sold to make a profit. Guoguo has to go to the shop every night to put out daily necessities. He doesn't need grain for the time being. He transports grain and vegetables from the granary on the mountain. Carrots and white radishes are everywhere in the grass nests and all over the mountains. Guoguo also goes to work to find vegetables when he has time. He eats so much that he doesn't want to let it rot in the fields. Ordinary people can eat whatever they want. There are so many in the Nine Mountains. Because of Guoguo, no one in the capital has starved to death in the past few years. Grain and vegetables are not a big deal. As long as you are not lazy, you will have food to eat and clothes to wear. And the food, clothing and other expenses are pretty good.

Guoguo toiled away in the family greenhouse, drawing and designing, while Yeheng sat on the sofa in the greenhouse, studying physics, absorbing knowledge. He'd ridden in a car before, and he often recalled the feeling: the speed of flight, smooth and fast. Once they were in the zone, neither paid attention to the other, until dinner arrived, when it dawned on them that a long time had passed. They looked at each other, and Yeheng felt sorry for himself again: he still had to ask for a good sex life. He decided not to go to the greenhouse that afternoon, so they walked out of the house and strolled around the streets. After a while, they stopped and walked until they reached their hotel. Guoguo and Yeheng entered, and Chai Gan greeted them warmly, "My dear friends, are you eating or staying at the hotel?" Guoguo: Chai Gan, you've got a sense of humor. You're looking at me in the middle, are we eating or staying at the hotel? Chai Gan chuckled, "How about I check the account books for this period?" He then brought out several books and handed them to Guo Guo. "Hey, hey," Guo Guo pushed them away. "No, just remember them." Guo Guo pulled Ye Heng inside, looking here and there, but not at Chai Gan. "Go and do your own thing, don't bother me," he said to Chai Gan. Reluctantly, Chai Gan returned to the front with the books, checked them once more, and prepared to lock them up. One book per month. ...

Guoguo looked around the hotel. There were quite a few people staying there, and quite a few dining on the first floor. The men in black had changed into their work clothes, looking neat and presentable. Every corner of the hotel was immaculately clean, no dead corners. Guoguo was satisfied. They walked out hand in hand and continued to wander the streets, walking along the ancient roads. They came to Jiaxing Shop, which looked quite pleasant, with a constant stream of people coming and going.

The two of them went to the backyard to rest. Guoguo took out a bag of milk for each of them to drink. They hugged each other on the sofa and closed their eyes to rest.

It was dark, and Jiaxing was closing up shop after get off work. He remembered Guoguo and Yeheng were still there, so he knocked on the door. Yeheng woke up and realized they were asleep. He said, "Guoguo, wake up! Uncle is calling us." Yeheng glanced outside; it was already dark. "Guoguo, wake up!" Seeing Guoguo's recent lethargy, Yeheng wondered if she was pregnant. Worried about it, he went home that night to ask the imperial physician to check on her.

Ye Heng took out a windbreaker and put it on Guo Guo, saying, "It's cold outside, wear it when it gets dark." "Okay." Ye Heng: Let's go home. The two walked out of the house, and Jia Xing said, "Let's take a carriage." Ye Heng: Okay. Guo Guo got in the carriage. Ye Heng helped Guo Guo get in first and then got in himself. Jia Xing asked the store employees to take the back carriage and drove off first.

Xiaojing followed behind and locked all the doors before leaving.

Yingchun and Xiaojing drove their carriage home and settled in the building behind the Chai residence. Chai Zhen had arranged for them to connect their two apartments, making it spacious enough. Li Ning had also married, along with Qiuju. They all lived happily in the building behind. Only Dongshuang remained single.

The black-clad man, Chai Gan, and Dong Shuang were in the throes of love, and Chai Zhen had arranged a house for them both, both suites, without favoring either. As long as they were in a relationship, Chai Zhen would be very enthusiastic and would arrange accommodation for them both.

The Chai family cared deeply for anyone they recognized. ...
