A small peasant girl who traveled through time and space picked up a war god prince

Siyu told Li Si to come to her study after dinner and she would bring the blueprints to her. At this time, her mother came to call everyone to eat. Nanny Tan and Aunt Li had already prepared the meal and everyone sat around a big table. Nanny Tan, Aunt Li, Robert's family all went to the kitchen to eat.

Speaking of meals, when Nanny Tan and Robert's family first arrived, Siyu asked Nanny Tan and Mrs. Luo to cook. The two cooked wild vegetable porridge for Siyu's family. When Siyu came to the kitchen, she saw two different meals: her family ate white rice, while they ate wild vegetable porridge. Siyu told them that from now on, all meals at home would be the same and there would be no need to separate them. From then on, they all started eating the same meals. It was also because of this incident that Nanny Tan and Robert's family stayed in this house wholeheartedly.

After dinner, several workshop managers, as well as the managers of the caravan, the managers of the wasteland, and several families selling goods gathered together and began to talk about recent developments. Lan Niang said that the puppet workshop needed a new look. Aunt Lihua said that Master Han asked if we could add some copper coins to each set of pig trotters. Boss Han said that someone was imitating the braised food we make. Several of the butcher stalls we cooperated with were offering high prices to sell pig offal and pig trotters. They also asked me to tell you that if you don't add more silver, they will sell the goods at a higher price. Siyu said, it doesn't matter, he wants to unilaterally tear up the contract without reason. Let him compensate us ten times the silver, and we can change to another one.

Siyu told Aunt Lihua that when Boss Han arrived the next day to deliver the goods, she should tell him directly that the goods we were taking from his shop every day were more than his daily sales. If they unilaterally broke the contract and wanted to renew it later, it would be impossible. Just explain the interests involved to him. If he still unilaterally broke the contract, then make him pay compensation: ten times the 280 taels. When the contract was signed, compensation was based on the total amount sold daily, to create a mutual check between the butchers.

Aunt Lihua said, "Yu-san is really thinking long-term. Otherwise, we'd be out of stock after tomorrow." We'd have to go get more supplies. Granny Liu said, "People these days are just mercenaries, they don't care about feelings. They threw away bucket after bucket back then. It's time to worry. Now that Sister Yu has transformed these unwanted items into delicious delicacies, they're thinking of changing their minds again. Sister Yu charges 80 wen per pair, but they're still not satisfied. She even adds a 10 wen cleaning fee. They're truly greedy."

Aunt Xiuzhi, speaking of bean sprouts, we ship 1200 kilograms every day. The soybeans are almost used up, so we need to collect some more.

Zhou Bo said, "There's nothing wrong with our fleet. After delivering goods every day, everyone's idle. We feel the money's a bit too much. We're all farmers, so we're always busy. Suddenly, all this idleness makes us uncomfortable. One person could do this, but you've arranged for two people to share a truck. The load isn't much, only 3-4 kilograms. The round trip means the rest of the day is idle. We're worried something might go wrong."

Siyu listened and said, "I'm sending two people to deliver the goods because the food on this truck is cooked food, and it's not cheap. These three or four hundred kilograms of goods are worth six or seven taels of silver. If someone has bad intentions, one person definitely can't handle it. That's why I'm sending two people to deliver the goods." "How about this! Our team originally agreed to pay 800 wen a month. After delivering the goods, you have to feed the cattle you are responsible for."

So starting this month, each of us will receive a salary of one tael of silver per month. After delivering the goods, we'll go back and work on the wasteland. None of us are outsiders; we're all people I trust. Let me be honest with you all! I'm planting high-yield crops on this wasteland. I'll plant more seeds this year and grow more. Next year, I want all the members of our Baijia Village to plant high-yield crops. I also want every family in our village to have a new house, surplus food, and savings. I also want every child to have an education, so they won't be blind in the future.

Everyone was thrilled to hear Siyu's words. There was a burst of applause, tears welling in their eyes. They'd worked their whole lives, yet they hadn't managed to save enough money, buy a new house, or send their children to school. They also had Siyu's quick wit to thank for her wealth, and for not forgetting her family and fellow villagers. If anyone didn't work hard, none of us would let them. And we had to protect the crops in the wasteland and not let outsiders covet them. This was our hope for the future.

Everyone responded in unison, "Yes," a chorus of voices clamored. "Yes, I will, too. I'll let my children, my wife, my grandmother, and my mother wander the village freely. No strangers will be allowed into the wasteland." Siyu felt relieved, knowing her sincerity and dedication had not been wasted. Everyone was grateful, remembering her kindness; her efforts were worthwhile. Siyu continued, "I'm going to establish a clan school after the house is completed next month. I hope everyone will work together, contributing both manpower and resources."

The secret guard wrote down what Siyu said and the villagers' reactions on a piece of paper, and mentioned that Siyu was going to make a waterwheel.

Asked the hawk to deliver the letter, An Qi said to the hawk, you must be a good messenger, this may be our future mistress? You have to deliver the letter well, you will have benefits in the future. The hawk complained in his heart, you are a fool, you can't see it, I knew it a long time ago. She is the future mistress, humans, you are so blind! The hawk lowered his little head and nodded. The dark guard looked at his movements and laughed. Oh, good, you can still understand what I say! You are awesome, go quickly? Otherwise the master will be waiting anxiously. You must go and come back quickly, right?

Siyu continued, "The furniture Liebo made for me is almost finished. Liebo and I have discussed this. If there are children who are interested in carpentry, they can become his apprentices. In addition to learning to read in the private school every day, they can also go to Liebo to learn carpentry skills. In the future, they can work in the carpentry shop."

Besides working in carpentry shops, these children could also pass the imperial examination and enter the Ministry of Works, working in engineering and water conservancy projects. The imperial examination wasn't just about achieving the top scholar. One could also achieve the top military scholar. For example, those who were good farmers could eventually join the Ministry of Works. Within the Ministry of Works, there was a position called the Sinong official, designated for those with both agricultural prowess and research expertise.

We could also study medicine, becoming imperial physicians. Girls could also learn to become court ladies, renowned ladies, chefs, and even doctors. We could even learn ceramics, and if we were skilled enough, we could even work in the imperial kilns. So, if you work hard, anything is possible. There's more to success than just becoming the top scholar, but literacy is a prerequisite.

Siyu continued, "Every family here has children. We provide for their future, but their fate is in their own hands. Today, we'll all go home. Every ten days, we'll review the progress. Whether it's the workshop or the fleet, those who perform well will receive a reward of five taels of silver. Those who perform poorly will be replaced. The most capable will take the reins. We can all monitor each other."

And now Aunt Xinghua from Zhou Bo's family is pregnant again. Siyu said, "Zhou Bo, you should arrange the caravan affairs so that you can spend more time with Aunt Xinghua. The rest of your children should also be going to private school."

After everyone left, Siyu handed Li Si the blueprint for the ceramic pipe. She told him it needed to be 10 meters long and 20 centimeters in diameter, with one end thicker and the other thinner to facilitate connection. She also told Li Si to ask her grandfather to take him to the village to find a weaver. Find someone skilled in handicrafts to weave some bamboo netting, which they could wrap around the ceramic pipe to protect it and extend its life. Then, they should go to the forest and cut down some thicker trees to dry. Once the waterwheel was finished, they could use the wood as supports to support the pipe. Li Si nodded. "Yes, Miss," she said, "I'll see to it."

Siyu walked Li Si out the door. Who is this? Why does he look familiar?

Siyu, looking at the two people standing under a tree not far away, was a little curious. Who were they? Why did they look so familiar? Siyu's eyes sparkled. She quietly walked closer and took a look. Ah, wow! Siyu covered her eyes with her five fingers, but the gaps between her fingers were even bigger than her eyes. She muttered excitedly to herself, "Oh my god, this is Luo Lina and Huang Jinlei!" These two were whispering something. Siyu couldn't help her gossipy heart and quietly moved closer behind the tree to listen to what they were saying.

Huang Jinlei, Lina, don't worry, as long as you marry me, I will never let you suffer, and I will definitely treat you well. I will also treat your parents as my parents, are you assured? My grandmother is the only one in my family, and you know that my sister is from our village. Don't worry, although I can't speak well, I will definitely treat you well. Luo Lina blushed like a monkey's butt, lowered her head quietly, still thinking about whether she should agree. At this time, Huang Jinlei looked at Luo Lina with her head down, thinking that he would not agree, and said with a lonely look, "I'm sorry! I offended you." I know that I have no skills, my family has no money, and I have a widowed grandmother. I am sure that many girls will look down on me. Don't worry, just pretend I didn't say anything.
