The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

Chapter 38 Little Six's Prayer

About half an hour later, Mo Liuyun arrived at a large courtyard in the suburbs. He knocked on the door, and a girl of about twelve or thirteen years old opened it. When she saw that it was Mo Liuyun, she blushed and said, "Please come in, young master."

Then he turned around and shouted, "Everyone come out quickly, the young master is here." Then he closed the door, took the bamboo basket, and led Mo Liuyun inside. Mo Liuyun looked him over, and Xiao Liu trotted over from inside.

Leading Mo Liuyun, he introduced, "Master, this is a three-courtyard house. There are two rows of side rooms next to the entrance. The layout is quite good. The house is divided into two courtyards, east and west, separated by the central walkway. There is one courtyard on the east side and one courtyard on the west side. The western side is a continuous courtyard with roughly the same structure."

“Every time you pass through the central moon gate, you will arrive at the eastern courtyard. First, there is an empty small garden with a small pond. In the northeast corner of the garden, there is also a well.”

“Each courtyard has a main courtyard and two guest rooms. Passing through the front hall, there is a large courtyard on the west side connecting the two courtyards.”

Mo Liuyun thought to himself, "Not bad, we can use this as a processing area, and the front yard can be used as a warehouse!" He praised, "Little Six, well done."

Xiao Liu then said, "Master, look, this is the house deed. It hasn't been officially registered yet. When will you go? The house and household furniture cost 468 taels. This is the remaining 532 taels."

Mo Liuyun took the 500 silver notes and exchanged them for a 200 silver note, saying, "These are for daily expenses. We can reconcile the accounts at the end of the month. Have you taken stock of the people and arranged their accommodations and clothing? Don't skimp on food. Focus on getting your health back first."

Xiao Liu said, "The statistics have been compiled. Please take a look, Master." He then took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Mo Liuyun with both hands. Mo Liuyun took it but did not rush to look at it. Instead, he said to Xiao Liu, "Take me to see your elder brother."

Xiao Liu said happily, "Master, my brother is much better and can get out of bed now, but he is still a little weak. Please come with me."

Xiao Liu led Mo Liuyun toward the west side of the courtyard. He introduced, "This is the main courtyard in the east wing. We don't live here. Master, would you like to add any furniture? What are your preferences?" Judging from his tone, he intended to leave it for Mo Liuyun.

Mo Liuyun said, "It's fine as you like. I might not even come to stay. Do you have enough room?"

Xiao Liu said, "That's enough for now. There are 25 people in total: 10 people aged 10 to 20, 6 people under 10, and 9 people over 40. There are 17 women and 8 men in total."

"Oh, I brought some steamed buns and mantou. You can distribute them to them later. After lunch, we'll meet at the outer courtyard so I can check them to see if they have any illnesses that require treatment," Mo Liuyun said.

They arrived at Wuming's residence as they spoke. Xiao Liu knocked on the door, and it opened from the inside. Wuming bowed and said, "Young Master, you've arrived?"

"Okay, sit down first, let me take a look at you." Mo Liuyun sat down at the desk and gestured for Wuming to extend his hand. Wuming did so, and Mo Liuyun took his pulse. The pulse was steady, but there was some deficiency of qi and blood. He said, "It's alright. Continue taking your medicine, and pay attention to rest and nutrition!"

"Thank you, young master. May I ask what your plans are for us next?" Wuming asked.

"Let's rest for three days first. I'll check everyone out later to see if anyone is sick and needs treatment. Also, we need to renovate this house and build a workshop. I'll come back in three days to teach everyone how to make seasonings. I have a partnership with Wangjianglou."

I just want to sign a contract with everyone, stipulating that they must not disclose anything about the workshop or the operating procedures to others without authorization. Wages will be paid on the 15th of each month. The workshop will pay one tael of silver per month, and there will be bonuses for good performance. If anyone is found to have leaked secrets to outsiders, they will be fined fifty taels of silver and handed over to the government for handling!

Other miscellaneous tasks will pay 600 coins per month. Xiao Liu can inform everyone in advance if anyone is willing. Those who are unwilling can leave after three days with one tael of silver each! The contract is for three years; upon renewal, the wage will double!

Wuming and Xiaoliu looked at Mo Liuyun with shock and gratitude in their eyes. The wages the young master paid were far higher than the market price. He even gave money to those who didn't want to stay and provided medical treatment. He was simply a living bodhisattva!

Xiao Liu said, "Master, I will arrange it immediately. But Master, I have a request." After saying that, he knelt down before Mo Liuyun and said, "Master, I want to sign a death contract and follow you for life!"

Mo Liuyun and Wuming were both taken aback, never expecting that Xiao Liu would volunteer to sell himself into slavery!

Mo Liuyun said, "How about this, you first learn to read and write and do abacus with Wuming, and take charge of the personnel procurement here. Wuming will be the main person in charge of the work. Your salary is five taels of silver per month. If you still insist on working after three months, we will sign a contract!"

Wuming nodded to Xiao Liu, who then nodded in agreement and left.

Mo Liuyun then looked at Wuming and said, "Your temporary amnesia needs to be addressed gradually. I will give you acupuncture once your health is restored."

"I'll leave everything to your arrangements, young master," said the nameless man.

Mo Liuyun then talked to Wuming about how to renovate the house and how to arrange everyone's living quarters. Before they knew it, it was noon.

Xiao Liu knocked on the door and came in carrying a tray with two bowls of rice, two steamed buns, and a mixed vegetable stew with pork cracklings. The mixed vegetable stew consisted of several kinds of vegetables and smelled quite delicious. There was also a roast chicken, which he must have bought on purpose. Xiao Liu put the food and rice down.

He said apologetically, "Master, I didn't know you were coming, so I didn't prepare anything. This is some lard I bought, and I used the cracklings to stir-fry some mixed vegetables. It tastes really good. The roast chicken is freshly bought, so please make do with this!"

Mo Liuyun washed his hands and said, "Have you eaten? If not, we can eat together."

Xiao Liu quickly waved his hand: "I've eaten, I've eaten, I'm going out now!"

"Wait a minute," Mo Liuyun said, tearing off a chicken leg with his hand and placing it on the rice. He then tore the remaining chicken apart, leaving a wing on the rice, and handed the rest of the roast chicken to Xiao Liu, saying, "Take this and share it with the children!"

Xiao Liu looked at Wuming, who nodded. Xiao Liu then carried the roast chicken away. Mo Liuyun placed the bowl of rice with the chicken leg in front of Wuming, gesturing for him to eat. Wuming looked at the chicken wings and said, "Young Master, you should eat the chicken leg. I'll eat the chicken wings."

Mo Liuyun picked up a chicken wing, took a small bite, and smiled, "I like to eat chicken wings."

Wuming looked at Mo Liuyun's bright smile, momentarily stunned, and began to eat. A closer look revealed Wuming's red ear tips. The two ate in a very private manner, and Wuming's eating style was quite pleasing to the eye. Mo Liuyun couldn't help but wonder about Wuming's true identity. His gestures were refined, neither arrogant nor humble, and his words subtly carried the air of someone in a superior position!

The two finished a dish, and Mo Liuyun drank a cup of tea. Xiao Liu came over and asked Mo Liuyun to go out and take everyone's pulse. Mo Liuyun followed Xiao Liu to the outer courtyard, where dozens of people were standing. There was an old table and two stools.

Mo Liuyun sat down, and everyone came up one by one. After a quarter of an hour, Mo Liuyun withdrew his hand. Several elderly people suffered from old ailments, and one had asthma. Mo Liuyun wrote out several prescriptions and handed them to Xiao Liu, asking him to get the medicine. As for signing the contract, they would discuss it in three days.

After taking Mo Liuyun's pulse, Wuming escorted him out and bowed deeply to him, saying, "On behalf of the family in the courtyard, I thank you for your great kindness, young master."

Mo Liuyun waved his hand and said, "The world is tough, I'm just doing what I can!" He was about to head back when Ling Jiu's voice rang out, "Congratulations, Master, the space has gained 785 Faith Points!"

What a surprise! The space can be upgraded tonight, but it's too late to go to the Treasure Pavilion now! I should just go home.
