The business of the two grew bigger and bigger, and they did not do any housework. They hired others to do the housework. They were a bit like modern hourly workers. They would come to their house to work when the time came, and they would leave after cooking. You can go home.

Several families were not used to having outsiders living at home, so they hired people to come to work and did not sleep at home.

As for the cost of inviting people, of course the whole family must pay for it together.

"Third brother and sister, what did you think about it?" Fang Chunmei asked Li Dafeng, who was still eating.

"Me?" Li Dafeng raised his head and looked at Fang Chunmei confusedly.

She put down the bowl and chopsticks, thought for a while and said, "It's okay not to open a shop now, but if the weather gets cold, maybe we still have to open a shop for convenience."

She must find more people to open a shop, otherwise she will be too busy at all. Then she can recruit some of her sisters-in-law. Li Dafeng has his own Xiao Jiujiu in his heart. He has to recruit people anyway, and of course he will recruit his own family members. More assured.

"I just have an idea. If you want to open a shop, you can open it. You don't have to open it if you don't want to." Wang Xiujuan said.

……

When Ning Hu gives birth, he usually goes home with Village Chief Ning if nothing happens.

The two men supported each other and walked home together. Suddenly, a yamen servant walked up to Ning Husheng and whispered to him. Ning Husheng's expression changed, and then he said a few words to the waiting village chief Ning and left.

"Pay attention to safety." Village Chief Ning said.

Ning Husheng ran and said, "I know, dad, go back quickly and leave some food for me."

Ning Husheng hurried towards Ning's house, knocked on the door, and was led by the guards at the door to Ning Changrong's room.

"Why are you here? What's the matter?" Ning Changrong asked doubtfully.

Recently, he has been going to the county government office in the morning and teaching at the cadre school in the afternoon, and he has come back earlier.Not on the same path as Ning Husheng.

Ning Husheng took a breath and said, "Changrong, didn't you ask me to help you look after those families before? They seem to be packing their luggage and want to leave."

"What? Are you sure?" Ning Changrong asked.

"I asked people to keep an eye on them, and my men came to report. They were packing their luggage and bought a lot of dry food. They should be ready to leave."

Ning Changrong nodded to show that he understood, and waved his hand to let Ning Husheng continue to stare.

It seems that those three families have finally lost their patience and are ready to leave.

Or maybe they figured it out. Chang Yuan was rejecting them, but they just didn't make it clear.

Whether the three families leave or not has no impact on Ning Changrong.

It was just that he wanted to prevent these people from causing chaos in the city, so people stared at them. Ning Changrong was relieved when they left.

Previously, the young man named Zheng Yang from the Zheng family had caused him a lot of trouble. Fortunately, he didn't cause any big trouble. He only fined Zheng Yang a few taels of silver. But to the Zheng family, even if it was a failure. It saves people's face.

After Ning Husheng left, Ning Qingxi and Wang Xiujuan came over.

"What's going on? Why did Husheng suddenly come to find you just now? I see that he is still out of breath. Is there something urgent?" Wang Xiujuan asked with concern.

Ning Qingxi also looked at Ning Changrong with concern.

This is the bad thing about living in troubled times. If there is any disturbance, the whole family will be at war.

Ning Changrong comforted him: "It's okay, it's okay. Didn't I tell you before, does anyone want to cooperate with General Chang? General Chang doesn't plan to cooperate with this group of people anymore. He still wants to use his own people, and those people will go on their own. Yes. Husheng is here to report this matter to me."

Ning Qingxi asked: "Will this offend them? Will they stumble us behind our backs?"

Ning Changrong smiled and said, "What are you thinking about? If they really have the ability to hinder us and send talents to our doorsteps? Although they are from a thousand-year-old family with profound heritage, it does not mean that they can control us." Ning Changrong Rong guessed that these people might eventually become sacrifices for Chang Yuan to ascend to the throne of God.

"What they hold in their hands is nothing more than money, food and talents. We are all in short supply. We can even make our own weapons. How can they hold our lifeline?"

After Ning Changrong explained this, Ning Qingxi felt relieved.

Except for Ning Qingxi's family, no one in the world values ​​those craftsmen more than Chang Yuan.

Chang Yuan had many craftsmen under him and received generous salaries. Naturally, his craftsmen worked hard to build various weapons and armor for him.

Chang's army has no shortage of weapons.

Ning Changrong thought about this contact with these aristocratic families. Chang Yuan currently looked magnanimous and courteous to the virtuous corporal, but that was also forced by the situation.

He believed that the butt determines the head, and a person's position determines his thoughts. When the great cause is about to be achieved in the future, these proud aristocratic families will be a stumbling block in Chang Yuan's road, but Chang Yuan will not be soft-hearted at that time.

"Dad, Master Lu said that the blast furnace experiment will be successful tomorrow. He asked me to go up and see if you want to go too?" Ning Qingxi asked, remembering the business.

"Of course I have to go. How could I miss such an important thing?" Blast furnaces are related to ironmaking, and ironmaking is related to weapons. To a certain extent, money and food are not as important as weapons.

"I didn't expect Master Lu to be so powerful. I just drew a simple drawing and he made it with his hands."

Ning Qingxi’s role in the workshop is irreplaceable, but others are also indispensable.

"You, you, don't underestimate the ancients." Wang Xiujuan tapped Ning Qingxi's forehead.

Ning Qingxi rubbed his forehead and said: "How dare I underestimate the ancients? Don't people today just stand on the shoulders of the ancients to see the world? No matter how many achievements we have in the future, shouldn't it be the predecessors who laid the foundation? That's me It’s just a sigh of relief.”

The three looked at each other and smiled.

……

"Dad, are you ready? We are about to set off." Ning Qingxi asked beside the bullock cart.

They still prefer riding an ox-cart to riding a horse-drawn carriage. Black Spot has some wisdom and can pull the cart more steadily.

"Come on, come on, I'll give you some milk later, and then we'll go out of the city on the way." Ning Changrong said.

Ning Changrong was followed by Wang Xiujuan, who also had a small bag on her arm and climbed onto the bullock cart with Ning Changrong's help.

After all three people got on the bullock cart, Ning Daniu drove the bullock cart outside.

"Mom, are you still going to Chengdu Field today?" Ning Changrong asked.

"What else? Can we talk about farming on paper? Of course we have to do it on the ground." Wang Xiujuan replied, "Be careful when you and Xixi go up the mountain."

Ning Changrong responded with a smile, "Don't worry, mother, just go about your business."

When they arrived in the fields outside the city, Ning Daniu stopped the cart. After Wang Xiujuan got off the cart, he continued to drive the cart forward.

In the distance, Fu Linjun took a few steps forward after seeing Wang Xiujuan.

"Here comes Aunt Wang."

Wang Xiujuan said in surprise: "Ah, Mrs. Fu is here so early?"

Fu Linjun smiled and said: "I have nothing to do at home, so I came to take a look." Then she made a piece of jewelry, and the maid next to her came up with a box, "I should have found a place to give this to you. , but we can’t spare time now, I hope aunt doesn’t mind.”

Wang Xiujuan was a little curious as to what could be so mysterious.
