How did a street urchin from the film crew end up in a Northern Song Dynasty drama called "The

At this moment, the butler Jin quickly explained, "Reporting to my lord, many families eat two meals a day."

Upon hearing this, Jin Shuai frowned slightly and said firmly, "Damn it... who made such a rule? I don't care about others, but from now on, our family must implement a three-meal-a-day system. We can't let you work on an empty stomach. What kind of poultry and livestock can be raised in the market to provide meat?"

Butler Jin hurriedly replied, "Young master, we have chickens, ducks, and geese for poultry; and livestock including pigs, dogs, sheep, horses, mules, and deer, etc." As he spoke, his face was filled with excitement.

Jin Shuai nodded slightly in satisfaction, then instructed, "There's quite a bit to eat. First, buy two hundred chicken eggs and two hundred duck eggs. Then, select some lively chickens, ducks, and geese, and find an open space to fence them off for raising. In addition, we need to purchase some pork and mutton. Remember to pick out a few small local dogs to guard the house. Send someone to purchase these items later. Oh, and one more thing, don't forget: go to the pharmacy and buy plenty of Daqinggeng (a type of medicinal herb). Also, send someone to the dock to buy as much quicklime, coal, and sand as possible for the house."

"Yes, sir, I'll arrange for someone to take care of it right away," Butler Jin replied with a smile. He bowed slightly to show his respect to Marshal Jin, then turned to leave and begin handling the relevant matters.

At this moment, Jin Shuai looked at Liu Ma standing to the side and said in a serious but gentle tone, "Liu Ma, from now on, the maids in this mansion will be under your management. It doesn't matter if they seem a little clumsy when they work; we can teach them slowly. But the most crucial point is that we must ensure their loyalty and obedience. Do you understand what I mean?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of disappointment appeared on Liu's face. She murmured softly, "I don't want to manage people; I only want to take good care of you, my lord..."

Seeing this, Jin Shuai couldn't help but laugh and comforted him, "Hehe, your management of them doesn't affect how you and I take care of each other! Besides, Butler Jin is usually very busy, and if you can help keep an eye on things when you're not busy, then you can each do your job and work together, which will improve efficiency."

Butler Jin quickly chimed in, "What you say is absolutely right, sir! Madam Liu, sometimes it's really not convenient for me to interfere in matters involving women. I hope you can take care of things for me."

After a moment of contemplation, Liu finally nodded and replied, "Well, alright, in that case, I'll take on this task." As she finished speaking, a hint of determination and resolve flashed in her eyes.

Then, with a smile, Jin Shuai continued, "If the old master is not at home in the future, the three of us can have breakfast together. We can also communicate and discuss matters then. Steward, after you have made the arrangements, we will go to the craftsman's residence together." As soon as he finished speaking, Steward Jin took the order and hurried off to make the arrangements.

After Butler Jin left, Jin Shuai turned to Liu Shi and asked, "Is there anyone in your family who is skilled in making clothes or is particularly good at needlework?"

"Yes, but not many," Liu replied.

"Let's gather together first. I'll come find you later; I need to do some things," Jin Shuai replied with a smile.

Soon after, Butler Jin returned, indicating that everything was arranged. Then, he and the butler went to the craftsmen's quarters, where the craftsmen had already gathered. Jin Shuai looked at the craftsmen and asked, "How long does it take to build a blacksmith's furnace? How many people are needed for one furnace opening? How many blacksmiths do you have in total?"
