Transmigrated into a farmer's lucky charm, all the villains in the family panicked.
Chapter 426 Old Man and Old Woman
Jinquan Villa is very large and is nestled against the mountains and beside the water, with superb scenery.
The hot spring pools are located in various excellent locations, each with hot spring water drawn into it, and each has a heated pavilion built next to it.
Yun Shengsheng also built accommodation areas, restaurant areas, and a playground for children. It can be said to be comparable to a modern hot spring resort.
During this time, Yun Shengsheng also met an interesting person.
The man's name was Chai Lie, and he was the owner of a porcelain shop.
While Yun Shengsheng and Princess Yongjia were shopping, they happened to run into Chai Lie, who was looking down at them arrogantly and about to punish two servants who had made a mistake.
Chai Lie said, "You two broke one of the owner's vases today, and you don't have the money to pay for it. A beating will settle the debt!"
He then had two boards brought over, ready to take action.
Princess Yongjia looked at the two people who had made mistakes; they were both old women, nearly fifty years old, wearing patched clothes.
At such a young age, to still be beaten.
Princess Yongjia was furious and went to stop her.
"Stop! How much did that vase cost? I'll pay for it."
"Stop hitting them with the paddle."
Yun Shengsheng didn't have time to persuade him.
All I could do was watch as Princess Yongjia spent fifty taels of silver to buy a pile of broken porcelain shards.
Of course, the two old women weren't beaten or kicked out of the shop; they could continue working there.
The two old women were extremely grateful to Princess Yongjia, their gratitude reaching tears.
Chai Lie also invited Princess Yongjia into the shop with a fawning expression, saying that they had some new porcelain in stock.
Princess Yongjia thought that Chai Lie was an opportunist, greedy for money, and a bully who abused his power.
They wouldn't give him a friendly look.
She glared at Chai Lie and left.
Yun Shengsheng sighed and quickly followed her away.
That night, Yun Shengsheng and her friends went shopping late and unintentionally wandered into a secluded alley.
They were followed by guards, so they didn't need to worry about their safety.
As they walked, they discovered a group of ragged old people sitting or lying in a corner deep in the alley.
There was a man standing in the alley.
The man was pushing a cart with two large buckets on it.
He was using a large ladle to scoop rice from the bucket into rough porcelain bowls, then handing them one by one to the old man.
He was still muttering to himself.
"Old Zhang, everyone says you should go out and get some sun during the day. Look at you, you stink."
Old Zhang awkwardly accepted the food and straightened his clothes.
"Okay, I'll go sunbathing tomorrow."
The old woman next to him glared at him.
"You stink! Don't come near me. Get lost!"
As the man served her rice, he said with a smile, "Grandma Li, please stop scolding people. It's bad for your health. I can't afford the medicine if you get sick!"
As Yun Shengsheng and Princess Yongjia listened, they quickly realized that the rambling man was actually the shopkeeper they had met during the day.
His words were still unpleasant.
But the movements of his hands were very gentle.
They not only served the elderly bowl after bowl of rice.
Occasionally, he would see the elderly people spilling their food, and he would help them clean it up and then give them a fresh bowl.
An old man coughed, and he even squatted down to take the old man's pulse.
"Uncle Wang, I told you to keep your back to the wind at night. You always lie at the intersection, and now you're coughing again, aren't you?"
"Old Zhang, why don't you switch places with him tonight? His cough is affecting your sleep, isn't it?"
Yun Shengsheng's eyes lit up, and she immediately asked Xiao Maotuanzi to check the person's specific information.
After checking, Xiao Mao Tuanzi smiled and said.
"Haha, this is quite a character."
"This person is named Chai Lie. He is an orphan whom these elderly people picked up and raised together."
"Chai Lie has a particularly sharp tongue, but he is also very reliable and meticulous in his work. He is also very smart and good at handling things. At only twenty-two years old, he was able to become the manager."
"During the day he said he was going to beat those two old women up. But actually he had already given his men a look, so it was just a pretense."
"It's just so the employer won't fire two old women."
Yun Shengsheng narrowed her eyes, resting her chin on her hand as she pondered.
"How can a hot spring resort like mine function without a capable manager?"
The little dumpling smiled.
"Are you planning to steal her away?"
Of course, talented people are rare and hard to find. Especially those with a conscience.
Since we've come across it, we should naturally dig it up.
Thus, through Yun Shengsheng's machinations, Chai Lie, who was very talkative but kind-hearted, became the head manager of Jinquan Manor.
He still does things the same way.
He talks on and on all day long, but everyone below him just watches him with smiles and listens to his rambling.
She looked at the group of elderly men and women in front of her and asked Chai Lie.
"Is this the talent you recruited for me?"
Does this person think this is a nursing home?!
Chai Lie wore a fawning smile.
"Absolutely! They're all incredibly talented!"
Yun Sheng rolled her eyes at him: [You'd be a fool to believe that!]
However, she still wanted to hear how he planned to fool her.
If it's plausible, she could turn a blind eye.
Chai Lie then began his charade, pointing at Old Wang.
"Master, don't let Old Wang's age fool you, he used to be a renowned carpenter."
"If any of the furniture here is damaged, you can hand it over to Old Wang to repair, and he'll make sure it's as good as new."
Old Wang quickly nodded and bowed.
"Yes, yes, boss, I'm a top-notch carpenter. I can definitely fix all the furniture here perfectly."
Yun Shengsheng rubbed her forehead. "Alright, what about the others?"
Chai Lie immediately pointed at Granny Li and said.
"Grandma Li is exceptionally good at embroidery."
"We can have her and the maids embroider a batch of handkerchiefs with our manor's name on them, and give one to each guest who comes and leaves."
"From now on, whenever young women and married women see our handkerchiefs, they'll think of Jinquan Manor! Business will definitely be booming!"
"And there's Grandpa Wang, he plays the pipa beautifully. He can play a tune while the guests are soaking in the hot springs. It's guaranteed to make them feel relaxed and comfortable."
"And Aunt Liang..."
He went on to explain the uses of the products for more than a dozen old men and women, and then added a final sentence.
"The key point is that they don't want wages, they just need food and lodging..."
After saying that, Chai Lie looked at Yun Shengsheng nervously, and a group of old men and women also stared at her nervously.
Yun Shengsheng was being watched by more than a dozen pairs of eyes, eyes filled with the desire to live.
She sighed, and finally nodded...
