First Empress Merchant

Chapter 84 The New Deputy Steward (1)
"eat more."

As soon as these words came out, Ah Zhong finally couldn't help but spit out all the things in his mouth, and then slapped his chest fiercely while glaring at Situ angrily.

Seeing this, Situ said indifferently: "I know you like sweet potatoes, so don't be so anxious, there are many more, eat slowly."

"...Thank you." Ah Zhong was very angry, but just as he was about to scold someone, he saw Xin'er handing him a handkerchief, and he could only temporarily suppress the fire in his heart.

Xin'er waved his hand, expressing that you're welcome, and said when he thought of something, "Master Ah Zhong likes to eat this, so you can eat more, and I'll peel it for you."

As he said that, he really started to peel them, and the speed was very fast. In the blink of an eye, he peeled three or four and handed them to Ah Zhong.

Ah Zhong looked at those sweet potatoes, his face was almost turning green, but for some reason, he couldn't refuse, so he ate slowly, mouthful by mouthful.

Lu Lishi looked at it wanting to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, she could only lower her head and eat the food in her own bowl.

He raised his head again after he finished eating, who would have thought that Ah Zhong was still eating, and Xin'er was still peeling, and finally couldn't bear it, "Hey, it's getting late, we should go up the mountain, hurry up, eat Once you finish collecting your things, you will leave."

"Miss is very right! Miss Xin'er doesn't need to peel anymore, the matter on the mountain is important!" Ah Zhong suddenly heard the sound of nature, stood up the next moment, and said to Xin'er very sincerely.

Xin'er thought about it too, and nodded, "Alright then, I'll pack the rest for you and take them up the mountain. I'll heat them up in the stove at noon and bring them to you."

Ah Zhong wanted to cry when he heard this, but he still forced a smile on his face, "...Thank you."

He has already eaten eight sweet potatoes and a bowl full of porridge, so he doesn't need to eat at night, so come at noon?He still wants to live a few more years!

After helping to pack up the things, everyone set off together. When they arrived at Liyuan Mountain, the others did what they had to do as usual. Lu Lishi went to the mulberry garden first to see how the samples were doing. Obviously, the real products satisfied her. When it failed, he ordered them to start formal production, and then took ten samples from each of the weavers and left.

As the owner of Liyuan Mountain, it is naturally the busiest. After Lu Lishi came out of the mulberry garden, she went to various places to see, tea garden, cowshed, garden, medicine garden, and finally the construction site behind the mountain. It was there that she found Shi Liang. .

To be honest, Shi Liang, the semi-supervisor, did a pretty good job. Although she didn't specially arrange a supervisor here, his presence did give the short-term workers a certain sense of urgency, which is why they did it so fast and so well. .

I remember one time when she first came here, she saw a dispute between the mason and the Ziren. After careful questioning, she found out that Ziren decided to remove the mud from a three-story building for the sake of the house's beauty, and used all solid For the sake of safety, the mason resolutely opposed it. Shi Liang was not there at the time, and the other master craftsmen also insisted on their opinions, so there was a stalemate for a while.

Looking back at that time, she was really angry. You must know that this is a mountain rather than a flat land. Naturally, there will be many safety hazards, such as lightning strikes, heavy rains, etc. If you don’t pay attention, it will cause great casualties, so I strictly ordered the beauty It's secondary, safety is the top priority, and cutting corners is never allowed. Once found out, he will be driven down the mountain, and Shi Liang will squat here every day after that.

After finding someone, Lu Lishi was going to take him to the labor market to see what happened to the recruitment notice left yesterday, and suddenly thought of something, so she went to invite Aunt Ye's family again. The reason why she was invited was because she found out that This is the one who is the most receptive and the most calculating among the aunts, and such a person will never be emotional, so asking her to help in recruiting female workers can save a lot of trouble.

When they arrived at the labor market, at first they thought there was an accident and why there were so many people, but when they entered, they found that these people were all for their recruitment notices. After a closer look, they even had packed their bags. The family brought their mouths, and the three of Lu Lishi subconsciously looked at each other, and they all saw the inconceivable in each other's eyes.

Turning to look at those people again, this... What is the situation?
Fortunately, if there are too many people gathered here, the yamen will be disturbed, so when the three of Lu Lishi lowered their heads and discussed how to invite those who came to apply for the recruitment to line up in an orderly manner, they saw a few officials come over, and they saw that it was After Li Yuan's Shandong family came to recruit workers in person, they quickly went back to report to the official.

Not long after, the official rushed over after hearing the news, and brought six more yamen servants. Seeing this, Lu Lishi immediately went over to greet the official. The official smiled and said a few polite words to her, and then waved her hand , so he asked his subordinates to help maintain the order, Lu Lishi thanked with a smile, and then whispered a few words to Shi Liang, Shi Liang comprehendingly approached the lord Guan, and whispered a few more words to him, the lord listened After seeing it, I laughed even more, and finally said that I wish them a smooth job recruitment and then went back to the Yamen.

Lu Lishi sent them off with a smile on her face, and at the same time, she silently felt sorry for the money that was going to be spent in the future. Hey, the lord, the official, came over to help her in person, so she had to return a generous gift, by the way, treat her to a meal or something Well, it's a good thing that she shouldn't spend the money on the sophistication alone, and Zhou Yang has to bear half of it, right?
Because of the help of the yamen servants, according to the requirements in Lu Lishi's notice, the yamen servants quickly arranged all the applicants to line up, with male workers on one side and female workers on the other. Indoor cleaners, outdoor cleaners, dishwashing workers, laundry workers, etc. queues for different duties are clear at a glance, no need to ask one by one, just look at the sign in front of the queue, and it saves time and effort.

Naturally, those who came to apply for the job also came to watch the excitement. As the news of Li Yuanshan's re-planning came out, everyone gradually knew what the new owner was planning to do. Others didn't care, but colleagues were different. I think People who can buy the whole mountain and have people from the yamen as their backers all want to come and see who the rich and powerful Mr. Lu is, and they all keep their eyes sharp.

But when I came over some time, except for the little lady wearing a veil, I only saw Shi Liang and a woman. Shi Liang had some face, so he could recognize it, and the woman could see it too. It was from a local farmer's family, and they all returned disappointed when they found out that the legendary Master Lu hadn't shown up.

Seeing that it was still early, a certain visitor went to a nearby teahouse to drink tea. As soon as he sat down, he saw an acquaintance coming in. His eyes rolled and he understood, so he went to say hello to the acquaintance .

"Hey, Boss Li is also here to watch the excitement, but what did you see?"

Boss Li smiled and cupped his hands and said: "Isn't this Boss Cheng? Please sit down! I'm not afraid of your jokes, I just wanted to see Master Lu, but I still didn't see anyone, but what happened to the veiled lady?" Who is it? It seems that he has a lot of background."
