Divorcing your wife might feel good for a moment, but seeing me make money will make you regret it f

Xu Gong understood the workers' thoughts, and he didn't want them to work there either.

He reassured everyone, "Don't worry, everyone. I'll have him take us out in a bit, and then we'll go back first."

This was something I hadn't considered thoroughly. I'll pay everyone for today as well. We'll find a new location for the workshop, and then everyone can come back.”

The workers then quieted down.

Cui Er returned quickly, bringing Cui Yifeng with him.

Xu Gong spoke up first, revealing his own thoughts.

Cui Yifeng wore a gentle smile:

"In that case, I have another house outside, it's a bit small, but it's on the street."

It's very convenient for everyone to go out, why don't we go and take a look first before making a decision?

Xu Gong hesitated for a moment, then looked at the workers behind him.

To set a good example for her daughter-in-law, Aunt Zhao spoke first:

"Second boss, let's go take a look. We're already here, so it won't hurt to make another trip."

If it's suitable, we can start work today, and the employer's business can get off to a good start sooner.

When they were out and about, people would address Xu Qing as "Master" or "Second Master" to show respect, and would not call him by his given name.

With Aunt Zhao taking the lead, the others were also willing to wait and see before making a decision.

After all, starting work a day earlier means earning double the wages a day earlier.

This time, Cui Yifeng personally led the way, taking everyone to the small courtyard facing the street.

Standing in the "small courtyard" that Cui Yifeng had mentioned, Xu Gong no longer wanted to speak.

If a three-courtyard house larger than his can be called a small courtyard, then it's really a bit like Versailles.

"If we're making milk tea, the kitchen in this yard should be enough. We just need to build a new earthen kiln. It's quick to make that kind of thing."

If everyone thinks this yard is feasible, I'll send people over to build it right away. It can be finished in an afternoon, and we can start construction tomorrow.

Cui Yifeng's voice came from behind.

Aunt Zhao asked cautiously, "Where will we stay?"

Cui Yifeng pointed to the rooms in the courtyard: "These are all available for you to stay in. You can choose whichever room you like."

Xu Gong's inner thoughts at that moment were, "This person is too extravagant, using such a large house as a workshop and staff dormitory."

However, seeing everyone already choosing their rooms, Xu Gong wisely remained silent.

After everyone chose their rooms and put away their luggage, they gathered in the courtyard.

Led by Aunt Zhao, they began to introduce themselves to Cui Yifeng.

"Hello, boss. My name is Zhao Guilan and I am an employee of the milk tea workshop."

"Hello, boss. My name is Sun Dahua. I am also an employee of the milk tea workshop."

"My boss..."

The workers stood in neat formation, spoke clearly, and exuded confidence and poise.

This truly surprised Cui Yifeng.

He originally thought they were just ignorant country folk, otherwise why would they be unwilling to move into the Cui family's house?

You should know that poor families in the prefectural city would fight tooth and nail for even a single job as a kitchen maid.

They all considered it an honor to live in the Cui family's main residence.

But the mental state of these people was something he had never seen before.

After the workers finished introducing themselves, Cui Yifeng also introduced himself.

After the two sides got to know each other, they went over some details about the work, and the milk tea workshop was still managed by Aunt Zhao.

The firing of squat toilets was overseen by Lao Shi, and they all had extensive experience.

Everyone started working. Xu Gong looked around and, finding nothing else for himself, prepared to return to the Xu family to report back to his younger sister.

Before leaving, Cui Yifeng said to Xu Gong:

"Young Master Xu, the two people we captured yesterday have confessed to who was behind them. Please go back and tell Madam Xu."

If she has time, it would be best if she could come to the prefectural city; she can come directly to the Cui family to find me.

This time, Xu Gong nodded seriously: "Okay."

After Xu Gong left, Cui Yifeng returned to the Cui family's study.

A moment later, Cui Yi silently landed in the study, knelt on one knee, and reported:

“Young Master, I searched the entire Xu family compound but couldn’t find the safety lock. However, the Xu family has adopted a little girl who is the same age as Miss.”

Cui Yifeng gripped the armrest of the chair tightly and asked in as steady a voice as possible, "Do you look like your mother?"

Cui Yi knew how much the young master hoped to find Miss Xu and meet this Madam Xu; the young master had placed 12% of his hopes on it.

But the girl's appearance was really... indescribable, she definitely couldn't be the young lady's!

He forced himself to say, "There is a resemblance; the eyes are very much like a woman's."

Let's appease the young master. Besides, he didn't lie. Although the girl's face was ugly, her eyes were indeed like the madam's.

Cui Yifeng's heart pounded wildly; he knew it!

"Go, go and investigate the girl's background again."

"Yes."

After Cui Yi stepped down, Cui Yifeng released the armrest, his palms already sweaty.

He paced back and forth in the study, unable to calm down at all.

"Mother, if you are watching over me from heaven, please bless me to find my little sister this time."

He muttered it to himself several times before his heartbeat finally calmed down.

Once he had returned to his former handsome self, Cui Yifeng left the study and headed towards the dungeon.

My uncle wrote to me from the capital a few days ago, asking me to find someone skilled in making poisons to prepare a kind of medicinal powder.

He just happened to run into it yesterday; it's like handing him a pillow when he's sleepy.

He fed the old woman's apprentice the medicine powder that his uncle and his friend had brought back together.

In order to save her apprentice, the old woman had no choice but to do everything in her power to figure out how to prepare the medicine.

He still had to keep an eye on things.

……

After Xu Gong arrived home, he immediately told Xu Qing what Cui Yifeng had said.

Xu Qing learned from the one-armed beggar that the Cui family wielded immense power.

Dealing with a porcelain workshop in a town is as easy as crushing an ant.

Since the owner of the porcelain shop had no intention of giving her a way out, she naturally wouldn't be merciful.

Now that we have help, we might as well use it.

She told Xu Gong not to tell his mother, so as not to worry her.

If the Wen family asks, just say it's a business matter.

Xu Gong stretched out his hand and made a gesture of pulling his mouth up, indicating that he would keep quiet.

Xu Qing then took a boat to the prefectural city.

It was her first time visiting the prefectural city, and she didn't know the way. Fortunately, the Cui family was very famous, so she could easily find out the way by asking around.

When she arrived at the Cui family's gate, the door opened before she could even knock.

A sedan chair was carried out from inside, accompanied by a round-faced maid.

"Madam Xu, you must be tired from your journey. The young master is waiting for you in the study. Please get into the sedan chair."

The round-faced maidservant spoke respectfully.

This was the first time Xu Qing had ever seen such a scene. It was only a few steps; there was no need to take a sedan chair...

Wealthy people know how to enjoy life.

She said somewhat reservedly, "I can walk by myself, can you show me the way?"

The round-faced maid smiled slightly and explained, "It takes about an incense stick's time to walk from the main gate to the young master's study. Madam Xu, please take the sedan chair instead."

Xu Qing was dumbfounded.

How big is the Cui family?

It takes half an hour to walk from the front door to the study.

Alright, then she can ride in a sedan chair.

The round-faced maid raised her hand, and the sedan chair bearers carried the sedan chair to Xu Qing and put it down.

"It's troublesome."

Xu Qing gave each of the sedan chair bearers 10 coins before getting into the sedan chair.

The sedan chair bearers, having received the tip, immediately beamed with joy and carried the sedan chair with exceptional steadiness.
