Chapter 2644 Immortal Realm Workers 12
Once the person was found, things became much easier.

Ningxin took the lead and first went to the steward in charge of their group. The steward then helped to ask the deputy chief for instructions, and finally a courtyard in the inner palace was given to her.

Although 30% of their income will have to be given to the Imperial Concubine in the future, having the Imperial Concubine as a backer will allow them to go further in life.

The benefits soon became apparent. Originally, there were only ten groups and about a hundred fairies in their area, but now the entire Yegong Palace, including the three junior stewards and thirty senior fairies, all knew about and were allowed to come to her for work.

The palace also sent people to clean the courtyard. The courtyard was quite large, and thirty or forty people could move around comfortably inside.

She was even allowed to choose a new name for the hospital, and a plaque was made and hung up.

When the "Serving the Emperor" plaque was hung up, the head of the inner palace, the two deputy heads, the three junior stewards, and the thirty senior fairies were all present. It was probably more complete than a general leadership meeting.

After offering words of encouragement, the headmaster prepared to leave. Xining quickly presented him with the plaque gift, a small red bag containing a voucher for three pairs of free fasting insoles. Though small, the headmaster accepted it with a smile.

Everyone who came received a gift bag, and everyone who came was very happy, showering each other with compliments.

From then on, Xining became an unofficial manager of one of the three newly established industries in the inner palace, and she started making insoles.

On another day off, Xining brought along the body-shaping fairy, who was also responsible for cutting and carrying things, as well as a huge package that was taller than a person.

Because the female cultivator moved the mountain, she eventually achieved perfect merit and ascended to immortality, so she took "Mountain Moving" as her immortal name.

Watching the petite female cultivator carry a huge bag taller than a person, walking with ease and without any sign of strain, Xi Ning felt that the world was full of wonders. Even after living for so many years, there would always be things that would overturn one's understanding.

First, I arrived at the teleportation array, opened my package, handed over the previous order, and then started doing business.

"We won't be taking any more orders. I'll just come once a week for now. All sizes are available, so come and buy if you need them. If you miss it, wait for the next time, or go directly to the Imperial Palace to buy them."

Once the news spread, the once quiet place became lively.

The number of people queuing to buy insoles in front of Xining was several times greater than the number of people queuing at the teleportation array.

Seeing at least thirty people in line behind her, she quickly called out, "One order of three sets per person. Those in line right now, please don't add any more. Come back next time. Hey, hey, hey, don't add any more! We're out of stock!"

Afterwards, he took half of the goods to the North Gate, and when he returned, not a single pair remained in the package. Several orders were left, some small and some large, mostly large sizes, all for tall, muscular cultivators. The Giant Spirit God earned a lot; he could have custom-made shoes from embroidery shops, at prices beyond the reach of the heavenly soldiers.

On the way back,
Back at the palace, many fairies bowed to her along the way. Although she was not even a senior fairy like Ningxin who managed ten people, she already had a courtyard, which was a place where she could make money.

A person who does not plan for the future will have trouble in the present. Even emperors sometimes lack money. No one wants to turn down money.

Xi Ning returned the greeting. Even immortals should keep a low profile. Only when one's status becomes official can one be exempt from returning the greeting.

Upon entering the courtyard, three fairies were spreading out freshly starched insoles. The Mountain-Moving Fairy quickened her pace and went inside to cut the dough.

Although five fasting pills a day are a bit pricey, they are definitely worth it.

After the insoles were laid out, a water fairy dehydrated them. Then they were gathered up and distributed to the fairies who came to take on the work.

A fairy was preparing a batter nearby, pouring flour and water into a vat and then vigorously stirring it with a bamboo pole. The flour was delivered by the shopkeeper, who now delivers it almost every two or three days. Inside the room, besides the fairy, there was another person cutting fabric. Twenty or thirty layers of cloth were cut into the same size, and a stack of cut fabric could make two or three insoles. Quality had to be guaranteed; the fabric had to be thick and durable.

Now, linen is purchased centrally, and many people with surplus linen are willing to exchange it for money or use it as insoles. Although the cost has increased, the volume has gone up, allowing them to succeed by increasing volume.

Judging from how fast the Mountain-Moving Fairy is, she helped carry bags and sell goods this time. She can endure hardship, so it seems we should raise her salary. If she continues like this a few more times, we'll poach her with a high salary and make her a full-time employee.

The deputy chief had already hinted that anything could be considered on a case-by-case basis, as long as it was permitted by higher policy. For example, if she paid a certain amount of tax, she would be given a quota for hiring long-term workers.

Walking into another room, the fairy inside was using a branding iron to heat the sewn insoles. As the iron touched the insoles and the smoke dissipated, the two seal characters "奉君" (Feng Jun, meaning "Serve the Emperor") were burned onto the insoles.

That's what branding is all about. The name "Feng Jun" is quite good, so we used it.

A month later, Xining paid the tax of five crystals. The deputy chief informed the chief, who was overjoyed and immediately granted her a quota of up to ten long-term workers to be recruited in the name of the inner palace.

First, consider the existing fairies in the inner palace. Many people have signed up, since they sometimes suffer mistreatment outside, such as having to stand guard for Fairy Jinhua. It's better to stay in the courtyard and work. Even if the salary is the same now, with development, there's always the possibility of a raise, or even becoming a senior fairy and a team leader.

Soon, people from ore yards, transport stations, and various low-level laborers came upon hearing the news. Some not only bought for themselves but also helped others carry the goods, while others gave them as gifts as a favor.

Just as Xining finished negotiating a deal with a restaurant on the commercial street, the restaurant wanted to order a batch of insoles with their signboard printed on them, so they could give them to their employees as a benefit and also to their customers.

The restaurant's owner is the Wine Immortal, so naturally he won't come. There's no need to worry about the manager demanding kickbacks; in the Immortal Realm, no lie can escape detection, unless there's no intention to investigate in the first place.

However, Xining still sent the manager over a dozen pairs of insoles, claiming they were for trial use. The manager accepted them with a smile.

No sooner had the restaurant manager left than an invitation arrived.

It is Dongming Prefecture that is going to hold a flower viewing banquet.

Even though shoe insoles have been selling really well lately, I know my place; I'm not worthy of attending such a high-class banquet. What on earth is going on?

Just think of a fool like Fairy Jinhua. She's like the daughter of a department head, yet she's more pretentious and attention-grabbing than the daughter of a high-ranking official. She keeps wanting to marry the loveless Emperor Dongyue. It's ridiculous.

By the way, has the good medicine that Fairy Jinhua found been used on the Great Emperor of Dongyue yet? It's been so long.

She probably wanted to have a foolproof plan. After all, if she messed up and offended that big shot, she would lose more than she gained, and even her father's position would be over.

Xining was unsure, so she went to discuss it with Ningxin. Ningxin had been given two spots in the fairy recruitment drive as a way of repaying her for her kindness; Ningxin had become a fairly good friend to her.

Ningxin looked at the invitation and couldn't help but frown: "What are they planning?"

The Imperial Palace and Dongyue have absolutely no connection. If they did, they'd just hire hourly workers. It wouldn't be her turn to be invited; there's a chief minister and two deputy ministers above them, and a whole bunch of senior officials behind them—all of whom are far more worthy of invitation than her.

"Don't make excuses about being busy and not going?" she asked tentatively.

Ningxin thought for a moment and said, "It wouldn't be good if we didn't go. Usually, we can bring one person with us, and I'll go with you then."

"Thank you so much, Sister Ningxin." She quickly expressed her gratitude.
