"What do you say?
Didn’t you say it loudly just now? "

Wang Cuihua felt relieved when she saw that the two village men didn't dare to talk to Li Shiyue.

Li Shiyue shook his head and said to the village man: "I paid for the construction of this school, and I hired the teacher, and he teaches the children from our Liujiatun. Why?

Do you people from the Zhao You family have any problem with how I spend the money in my pocket?"

Li Shiyue was talking to the two villagers like this, and Wang Cuihua's voice was also very loud, which attracted other people who were resting in the shade nearby.

When the brothers Zhao Youcai and Zhao Youtian looked at each other, they quickly got up from the ground and came towards Li Shiyue.

Li Shiyue watched as more and more people gathered around her. She waited for the brothers Zhao Youcai and Zhao Youtian to come over, and then she said to them directly, "As a woman, I don't think of myself as a money-loser.

I let the girls in the village go to school because I believe that education is as beneficial to girls as it is to boys.

There is no tuition fee to attend this school. I have already paid the teacher's tuition fee.

If the men in your village think that coming to work for our village, ah no, coming to work for Li Shiyue, who they call a money-loser, and the money they earn is very pitiful, then don't come!
Let others who don’t think I’m a money loser make the money.”

After saying this, Li Shiyue didn't wait for the brothers Zhao Youtian and Zhao Youcai to explain anything. He just turned around, nodded to Wang Cuihua, and left.

Only a group of Zhao You's family members were left to ask why Li Shiyue said that.

Among the onlookers were people from Sunjiayao and those who had watched the whole thing. They told the whole story of what had happened between Wang Cuihua and the two villagers before Zhao Youtian and Zhao Youcai arrived.

In this case, Zhao Youtian thought about it and realized that the words of these two talkative men must have displeased Wang Cuihua, who only had a daughter. It just happened that Wang Cuihua took the opportunity of Li Shiyue's visit to do this.

Li Shiyue didn't care at all what Zhao Youtian and Zhao Youcai would do. After her inspection, she went to the paper mill.

The second major event that happened in Liujiatun during this period was that the paper mill finally produced high-quality paper!
In order to open up business for Li's Paper Shop in the capital, Li Shiyue also experimented with adding juice extracted from grass roots, leaves or flowers into the paper pulp. This way, the paper would have a colored base.

Three colors have been produced so far: brown, lavender, and peach pink.

Li Shiyue had thought it through. The yellow color would be sold exclusively to calligraphy and painting dealers, while the lavender and peach pink colors would be sold in high-end quantities, limited to big merchants who could buy large quantities of mid- and low-end paper.

What's this called?
It’s about matching goods!

Hey!

If you want high-end products, you have to buy enough mid- and low-end products!

Li Shiyue looked at the dozen or so boxes of cut paper in the paper mill's storage room and thought it was time to go to the provincial capital.

She decided to go as soon as she said she would. This time she planned to take Li Qiutian, Li Xiatian, Shitou, and the dog Lao San with her.

The reason for taking the third dog with him was not for anything else, but also because it was time to open a shop in the capital.

Gou Lao San initially tried to refuse Li Shiyue, saying, "Shiyue, what should I do?

I can't read, my hands are clumsy, and I've never done business before. What can I do?
Ask Ma Zi to go, he is smart and will definitely get the job done."

Li Shiyue explained to Gou Lao San: "Third brother, don't think too much. I'm taking you there just to let you get familiar with the road. Stay in the shop for a while." Li Shiyue thought for a while and continued: "Stay for ten days first. You can support the shop first. After ten days, I will bring Brother Mazi over.

From now on, each of us will take turns for ten days.

Later, when the business is on track, we can look for a manager.

Third brother, please take the trouble to be the first person to look after the shop."

After hearing what Li Shiyue said, Gou Lao San couldn't refuse anymore, "Okay! Ten days, that's ten days, I'll let you take care of the shop!" "Third brother, that's our shop, not mine alone.

If this shop gets an order and makes money from selling goods, it will belong to the entire paper mill, to us."

"Well, I'll do whatever you say."

This time on the way back to the provincial capital, there were more than ten boxes of various sizes on the carriage. In addition to the ones for Yan Jiuniang and Liu Tan, Li Shiyue also prepared a small box of paper specifically for Li Shiyang.

This has already made things peaceful on the surface with Li Youfu and the others, so Li Shiyang's relationship must be maintained.

It's just a small box of paper, just give it what you should give.

Following the instructions of Li's mother and Zheng Meiniang, the four of them drove two cars and left Liujiatun.

Gou Laosan drove his own mule cart alone. After all, since he had opened a shop in the capital city, there would always be times when he would need a cart, so he would drive his own cart over first.

They first went to Sanshan County to find Li Shiyang, left him a small box of paper, and then took the official road to the provincial capital.

At night, they stayed overnight at their father-in-law's house in a village outside the city. At dawn the next day, they hurriedly drove to the official road.

After delivering a large box of paper to the gate of Liu Tan's house, Li Shiyue wanted to leave after leaving her name, but when the gatekeeper heard her name, he bowed and asked, "Are you Mrs. Li Shiyue from Liujiatun, Sanshan County?"

Li Shiyue nodded and said, "It's me!"

"Madam Li, please wait a moment. Madam has instructed that if Madam Li comes, we must report it and invite Madam Li into the mansion for a cup of tea.

Madam Li, please."

Li Shiyue had no choice but to tell Li Qiutian and the others to go to the shop and settle down first, and she would go and meet them later.

After following the maid who led the way into the mansion, Li Shiyue was invited into the inner courtyard just as he had drunk a cup of tea.

Then she saw Jiang Huijun standing at the door and smiling at her.

"lady!"

"October, come on, come in and sit down."

After having a meal with Jiang Huijun and chatting about Jiang Huai's teaching in the village, Jiang Huijun waved her hand and asked the maids in the room to leave. She then stood up and took out a letter from the side hall for Li Shiyue.

Li Shiyue was just wondering, when she looked down, she saw that it was her name written on the envelope. From the handwriting, she knew at a glance that it was a letter from Yan Jiuniang to her.

Holding the envelope, Li Shiyue looked up at Jiang Huijun in confusion.

"It was Jiu Niang who sent the letter through my mother's family.

The prince has his eyes on Xingsheng Tower. This letter was sent from Dongmu by a small boat from my mother's family.

I'm in the side hall, October, you sit here and watch."

Li Shiyue was still puzzled, so Jiang Huijun sighed and said to her, "You will understand after reading the letter."
