With the words of Wu Laosan and others, the strong men of the construction team felt a little relieved.

In addition, Chang Xi ordered people to kill two pigs to entertain the construction team. With delicious food, everyone felt more at ease, and there were smiles on their faces. They all looked forward to eating this meaty meal.

Master Zhou saw everything Chang Xi did, and took another high look at Chang Xi in his heart, and finally gathered people's hearts together, so he said to Chang Xi in private, "Miss Chang has a heart."

"Your Majesty Zhou is being polite. This is for the smooth progress of the textile workshop project. Besides, what they are asking for is just three meals a day for enough food and clothing."

After hearing this, Mr. Zhou took it for granted, but being an official also has a lot of helplessness. It is not easy to achieve the state of political integrity and harmony among people. It was difficult for him to silence these voices.

"The next step is to see the performance of the construction team. Mrs. Chang, I will leave this to you. I will ask the master to bring someone to supervise the monthly salary calculation."

As soon as Chang Xi heard it, he understood that Mr. Zhou didn't want to hand over the money again, so as to save the part that was embezzled in the middle, and strive to let these guys get more wages, and also make a name for the construction team. Once the rules are established, it will be easy to handle later, after all, there is a template.

"Master Zhou, don't worry, Minnv will take care of this matter."

With Chang Xi's solemn promise, Lord Zhou returned to the city with peace of mind.

Chang Xi temporarily transferred Wu Laosan to manage the construction team here, and then promoted a loyal villager to temporarily take Wu Laosan's original position. Of course, she also raised Wu Laosan's salary along the way.

Everyone was happy now, and the nearby villagers didn't feel hostile to the arrival of the construction team, thinking that they were here to steal their jobs. Instead, they welcomed them happily. After all, more people brought consumption, and some Villagers who run small businesses can take the opportunity to earn a little more money.

When Xie Jin came to look for Chang Xi, he happened to see the picture of the men of the construction team working in full swing, and their mental outlook was clear at a glance.

He stopped and watched for a long time, until Chang Xi received the news and came to find him, then he moved his position.

At this time, he looked deeply at Chang Xi, "You still have a way to make this group of people energetic." The more he saw it, the deeper he felt about it.

Chang Xi didn't take it seriously, "As long as you treat people as people and treat them accordingly, they will feel that life has a purpose, and people are naturally people."

Xie Jin nodded. He has been educated on this point. This is what an ideal society should look like. It's a pity that the Daewoo Dynasty is very big, and there are still many people struggling between food and clothing. There is still a long way to go in the future. long.

When Xie Jin and Xie Jin walked towards the tea brick workshop, Chang Xi took the opportunity to say, "I heard that Master Xie Si is here."

Last time, Mrs. Qin left in a hurry. Master Xie Si would definitely come to the other courtyard to find Xie Jin to explain the misunderstanding after knowing Yuan Wei, so she didn't go back to the other courtyard these days, and stayed directly in the tea brick workshop, so as not to hinder her understanding of the fourth master. In my eyes, I think she is a troublesome beauty.

Xie Jin didn't deny that Jiehe had been to the other courtyard, but said indifferently, "He took the tenth brother back, and this time he took him back directly to Datong Academy to continue his studies."

Xie Xu went back, and Chang Xi breathed a sigh of relief. She really couldn't bear the young man's passionate pursuit. Knife her.

Xie Jin saw Chang Xi's slightly imperceptible expression, and now there was a smile on his face, and he said that Xie Xu, a boy with no hair at all, was not his opponent, and it was true.

Chang Xi didn't ask how Xie Jin was talking with Master Xie Si. In this case, some things are better not to know than to know, especially since the Xie family bet their treasure on knowing Jin, so they would not want to fall out with Xie Jin.

Xie Jin also talked about this topic again, but chatted with her about the spinning workshop.

Chang Xi took the opportunity to summon Bai Shi. As the actual manager of the spinning workshop in the future, she paid great attention to the training of Bai Shi, and naturally gave her more opportunities.

The further south you went, the weather was still cold, but it was not so unbearable. Han Yongzhu tightened her cloak and hugged the heater tightly, and then felt that the cold wind was not so biting. Tao Nanny beside her carefully wrapped the cloak for her. Pull up the hem of the clothes.

"We're almost at Yiyang City, Miss Renren."

Han Yongzhu nodded. Although the climate in the southeast is not as cold as in the capital, she still feels uncomfortable. If she was not thinking of her fiancé Yuan Hao, she would not be able to persist.

Yuan Hao looked at the letter sent from home, and tore up the letter in anger, which made the messenger exclaim, "Master, this is a letter written by the eldest princess..."

"You, get out." Yuan Hao pointed directly at the door to let this person get out.

The long follower Zhan Xin next to Yuan Hao directly snatched this person out, he could see that Yuan Hao was on the verge of anger, so it's better not to add fuel to the flames.

"Why are you dragging me?" As soon as we got outside, the messenger sent by the eldest princess immediately yelled at Zhan Xin, "I haven't said what the eldest princess ordered. The mansion wants to tidy up her residence, this is the future eldest young lady, she can't be neglected, otherwise it will be difficult for the eldest princess to explain..."

Hearing this, Zhan Xin took a look inside, and sure enough, he heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. The Eldest Princess beheaded and then played the move to marry her master. It's no wonder that the master couldn't accept it, and it would be difficult for him to accept it. What's more, when he was in Beijing, his master didn't like this girl from the Han family. If he really liked her, he would have sent someone to propose marriage two years earlier.

The sender was directly dragged away by Zhan Xin, but he didn't know that he couldn't breathe, and shouted, "The eldest princess also said that if the uncle has a housemate or something, he will be dismissed immediately. At least I have to give the girl of the Han family some face." ..."

To put it bluntly, it was to give the mighty Marquis's house a little face, after all, it was a grievance for the well-behaved daughter to be Yuan Hao's successor.

When Yuan Hao heard these bastard words, he immediately rushed out from the back room, "Zhan Xin, send this man back to Beijing directly, I don't want to see him again for a moment, let alone listen to him, let's go."

Zhan Xin covered the messenger's mouth and pulled him away immediately.

Manager Du came to report the accounts of the tea brick workshop to Yuan Hao on a certain day every month. Although Yuan Hao said that there was no need to do so, he still enjoyed it. In his opinion, this also showed his identity.

As soon as he got out of the carriage, he saw Chang Sui Zhanxin next to Yuan Hao leading a shouting person over, he took a closer look and immediately recognized the person from the Chang Princess' Mansion, and hurriedly said, "What's the matter? Zhanxin, if you have something to say, please speak up."

"Guard Du, come quickly to comment. I'm here to convey the eldest princess' oral order. Instead of persuading the uncle to listen carefully, he even helps the uncle to drive me away. How can I do business with the eldest princess?"

To be honest, it was a divorce between mother and child, and he couldn't afford to be accused of such a crime, let alone, if something went wrong in the future, he couldn't afford it either.

Seeing that Zhan Xin was about to speak, Du Guanshi hurriedly stopped him, "Okay, let me tell him a few words, you go to wait on the uncle first, don't let the uncle and the eldest princess have mother and son, otherwise it's the fault of us servants. "

Zhan Xin was not afraid of Steward Du, but what Steward Du said was reasonable, he couldn't refute it, so he cupped his fists at Steward Du, "Then Lao Du will be in charge, and I still have to listen to what I say."

"I know." Du Guanshi responded.

Only then did Zhan Xin turn around and go back, and he also planned to take the opportunity to persuade Yuan Hao that the marriage decree had been issued, and this marriage would be irreversible, since the person came, he should be received well.

Without Zhan Xin at the side, Du Guanshi asked the sender carefully, and only then did he know that the eldest princess decided to marry Yuan Hao on her own initiative. His eyes blinked, and it seemed that the secret letter he had sent back before played a role.

"Did the eldest princess say anything else? For example, about that lady?"

The sender shook his head, "The eldest princess didn't mention anything about Chang Niang, just to let the uncle treat the girl of the Han family well. It's best to cultivate feelings, and I will return to Beijing to hold a wedding next year." After a pause, "Oh, yes, The eldest princess also ordered the uncle to clean up the women around him..."

Guanshi Du was a bit disappointed at first, but when he heard the last part of the sentence, his eyes sparkled, and he took the opportunity to ask for details.

It wasn't until he had inquired all the information he could get, that he sent the messenger away with unsatisfied intentions. Of course, he also took the opportunity to say a lot of bad things about Chang Xi to the messenger, and asked him to take the words back to the eldest princess.

The sender blinked his eyes when he heard this. With these words at the bottom, he was very grateful to Guanshi Du for how he would reply to the draft he had in mind when he returned.

Zhan Xin is still trying to persuade Yuan Hao to accept his marriage with Han Yongzhu. After all, everyone has come, and it is not appropriate to drive them back. It is better to accept the matter.

Yuan Hao took a sip of the wine in a depressed mood, "You go to Yuelai Inn to reserve a Tianzihao yard for Han Yongzhu to live in. It's not suitable for unmarried men and women to live in the same house. I also think about her reputation."

Even Zhan Xin can't say badly about the high-sounding words, but, "Would it be wronged by the girl of the Han family?"

He came here in disregard of the etiquette, but was treated like this. Where does this make Han Yongzhu's face?
"What's there to be wronged? It's not proper for her to come here, so why are you feeling wronged?" Yuan Hao vented all his dissatisfaction on the sudden appearance of his fiancée, and sneered at the other party's bold pursuit of love.

Zhanxin couldn't do it now, so he had to answer the call to make arrangements.

When Han Yongzhu and his party passed by the village on the outskirts of Yiyang City, they saw a bustling village and couldn't help being stunned. "Although I heard that Yiyang City is quite prosperous, but it hasn't entered the inner city yet. Why is it so lively?"

Nanny Tao couldn't answer this question, how could she know why it was so lively?This is very different from the Yiyang City in her memory.

However, she was still young when she was sold, and her memory of her hometown has long since faded. Now that she has returned to her hometown, she can't tell what it feels like in her heart.

When her thoughts were diverging, she heard the girl beside her pointing at a huge building with people coming in and out and asking in surprise, "Nurse, what is that?"

Tao Nanny looked over curiously. The buildings in the valley, just looking at the exposed corner, knew that the inside must be quite big, and it didn’t look like a rich man’s residence, because this was against the regulations, and ordinary people would not dare to built.

"The old slave doesn't know..."

"This is the tea brick workshop." A passer-by passed by and heard the conversation between the master and the servant, and replied with a smile.

Mother Tao Dingqing looked at the speaker, she was a woman, she didn't look like a countryman in clothes, but she didn't look like a city person either, but the most attractive thing about this woman was her mental outlook, which was different from other peasant girls in the countryside. Compared with his expression, this person's smile is very bright.

In this way, Han Yongzhu knew, because when she left Beijing, a thing called tea bricks became popular in the capital. She also drank this kind of tea, and the taste was very good. Admired, "Is it the tea brick we drink?"

"Yes." The woman smiled, "I won't tell you, I have to go to work."

"Wait, what do you mean by that? Women are also recruited here to work?"

Seeing the young girl in the carriage who didn't know much about the world, the woman smiled heartily, "That's right, all the people in the nearby villages work in the tea brick workshop, and now they have recruited a lot of people from the city. Thanks to Mrs. Chang, we women also have the opportunity to make money."

Miss Chang?
Han Yongzhu fumbled with these words, she didn't know what kind of woman she was, and she became somewhat interested in it.

"Can you tell me about Mrs. Chang..."

Before she finished speaking, she saw several women riding out from the Tea Brick Workshop. The leader was a young woman wearing improved riding clothes. Everyone who saw her would greet her with a smile, and she responded to them one by one with a smile. , and even let the horse stop and chat with people.

This woman is so dazzling that no one can ignore her existence.

It's just that what really shocked her was not the ease with which the other party rode a horse, nor her kindness when chatting with others, nor the high spirits of the woman talking about her, but the other party's face, where did she seem to have seen it before?It was so familiar.

"Nurse, look at that lady Chang, does she look a lot like..."

She was turning her head to talk to Nanny Tao, but she saw that Nanny Tao looked at the lady Chang as if seeing a ghost, and her body was trembling subconsciously, which frightened her.

"Mommy, what's wrong with you? What's wrong?"

It took a while for Tao Momo to come back to her senses. Seeing the worry in her girl's eyes, she hurriedly covered the panic in her eyes and said, "It's nothing, I just feel very cold, girl don't need to worry..."

At this time, Chang Xi was frowning and looking at the master and servant in the carriage. Looking in from the window of the carriage, she couldn't see the faces of the people in the carriage clearly, but she did feel that there was a line of sight staring at her all the time. If it was an ordinary gaze, she would not pay much attention to it, but this person's gaze gave her a complicated feeling, as if it contained a wave of hostility.

Tao Nanny was talking to Han Yongzhu, but when she turned her head, she saw that face that she didn't want to see appearing in front of her. When did this person come over? She looked at him defensively for a moment .
