Chapter 109 Boss Yan Wants to Make Money
A man next to him patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't let these thoughts get into your mind. Have you forgotten Liu Qi from before? He was such a vicious man. He went to rob Gujia Village, but ended up putting all the people in jail, and he himself disappeared without a trace."
The man was reminded by the person next to him and then he remembered why this Gujia Village sounded so familiar, and the thought that had just arisen in his mind was immediately put to rest.
However, although they and Liu Qi were all refugees, they were not in the same group. In the past, they were often oppressed by this group of people and suffered terribly. Any food they had would be snatched away. Now that this group of troublemakers has been eliminated, they receive relief food from the government and wealthy businessmen every day, and their life is not too difficult.
When Zhao Qiqi heard their discussions, he felt that this was a good thing. Liu Qi and others had suffered losses in their village, so others would not dare to act rashly. It would be a good idea to kill one to warn the rest.
The carriage stopped in the yard. As soon as Zhao Qiqi and others got off the carriage, they saw Boss Yan unloading goods next door.
Zhao Qiqi: Why do I feel like he really wants to make his own money?
"Hey, Madam Zhao, you're back. I've already made two trips back and forth. I've brought the person to you, and we've already started working."
Zhao Qiqi: I always feel that she is right.
"Thank you, Boss Yan, for your concern for our business. But why are there only six workers?" Didn't we agree to have seven people working together? Could it be that they couldn't find that many people?
Boss Yan chuckled, looked mysterious, and pointed at himself.
"Boss Yan, you're joking. There are only six people, so it shouldn't make much difference."
Zhao Qiqi looked at his serious expression and finally felt that he was not joking.
"What about Boss Yan's shop?"
"My wife is taking care of it. Oh, Mrs. Zhao, I won't say any more. I will quickly unload this batch of blue bricks so that he can go back and transport the blue bricks. It's not good to waste time here and take the wages you paid for nothing."
Zhao Qiqi didn't expect that Boss Yan was so obsessed with money. Moreover, judging from his initial attire, he didn't look like he was short of money. Now that he had changed into a coarse linen shirt, she thought he was going to unload bricks.
Boss Yan is really hardworking and will definitely make money.
Leave this place to Gu Yanyan, there shouldn't be any big problems. Zhao Qiqi felt relieved and unloaded everything from the carriage.
"Mr. He, oh no, I should call you Mr. He now."
He Xiucai had obviously never heard anyone call him like that before. He was a little dazed for a moment, and when he saw Zhao Qiqi leaving, he hurriedly followed him.
"This school has just been built, and today is my first time here. If there is anything inconvenient or you don't like, you can let me know. I will try my best to satisfy you."
He Xiucai nodded and shook his head repeatedly. Although he had not arrived yet and had not seen what it looked like inside, his guess must be good, at least much better than before.
Before, they had been huddled together for mutual warmth, and had to be on guard against anyone coming to steal their things. Fortunately, the Beggars' Sect was united and had a great reputation, so no one would easily attack them. With their protection, He Xiucai felt much safer.
"Mrs. Zhao, you are joking. It is good enough to have a house that can shelter us from the wind and rain."
As they were talking, two people arrived.
Pushing open the door, the whole school is basically a wooden building. The main hall is where the teaching takes place. The entrance is made of two wooden pillars, which can be engraved with words later. The two rooms on the left and right are smaller places, suitable for Master Qu to teach Gu Yanyan.
There are two pieces of land on each side for planting flowers. Two green pines have been planted and several red ropes have been hung.
The backyard is where the teachers live. There is a kitchen, a toilet, and everything from water tanks to pots and pans. There is also a stone table where the teachers can drink tea and write.
There are five rooms in total. One is for Mr. Qu, one is reserved for the invited teacher, Mr. He, and there are two rooms as study rooms for the teachers to read books and correct students' homework. One is for the maid who serves Mr. Qu, and there is one room that is left empty for use.
"Miss Zhao."
When Mr. Qu heard the sound, he came out of the study. He had been living here for a day.
When Mr. He saw Master Qu, his eyes widened. This... isn't this Master Qu from Qixian Academy?
There is no mistake, there is no mistake. He has been copying books for students outside Qixian Academy for a long time. He has seen Master Qu several times, and every time he wanted to go up, he was stopped.
Now, he actually appeared in a small village and taught here. Was he going to teach with Master Qu? He Xiucai felt like he was about to faint and was hesitating to go.
Seeing him stunned, Zhao Qiqi patted him on the shoulder and said, "Why are you standing there? Why don't you say hello to Master Qu?"
He finally reacted and bowed to Master Qu with excitement but restraint: "Greetings, Master Qu."
Master Qu frowned, as if he remembered something: "Have I seen you before? You look familiar."
"I once attended the teacher's class." He felt a little ashamed to say it. He naturally had no money to attend the class. It was just a chance for him to teach for others.
"I remember now, that song Farewell Spring Sleep was written by you."
Mr. He was a little surprised. How did Mr. Qu know this? It was a poem he wrote for someone else.
Master Qu chuckled and said, "I am old, but my heart is not. You were teaching for someone else that day, but I just didn't expose you. I found that the style of the homework you asked me to do was similar to that of this poem, so I guessed a little."
"Okay, Master He, I'll be leaving first. If you need anything, just tell me."
Seeing that they were getting along well, Zhao Qiqi left some space for them as she had to hurry to the workshop to launch new products.
The workshop currently produces unscented and colorless soaps. She plans to cultivate some talents who can make fancy soaps, that is, to draw beautiful patterns through soap liquids of various colors.
Pigments are precious in this era, but she has a system to support it, and she can produce many colors that are not available now. This will be the unique advantage of their soap.
Zhao Qiqi bought essential oils with scents of rose, laurel, jasmine, camellia and lavender. When she added them to the soap and added pigments, the soap would look both beautiful and fragrant.
"Xiao Cao, come with me."
Zhao Qiqi called Gu Xiaocao over who was working, gave her all these things, and told her the proportions: "These have different scents, but the proportions are the same. Because this essential oil is more refined, so a little bit will be different. You have to strictly control the amount."
Gu Xiaocao nodded, poured some on her hand and smelled it: "Aunt, this smells really good."
The fragrance gathers in the hands and spreads from them, lasting for a long time.
"This not only has a nice fragrance, but it can also nourish the skin, so soaps with essential oils are just right for washing hands. By the way, you have to match different essential oils with different colors so you don't make mistakes easily."
Gu Xiaocao nodded seriously and memorized the proportions carefully.
This job is not only easy, but also pays well. These days, her mother has been more and more friendly to her. In the past, she only knew how to take advantage of her aunt-in-law, but she doesn't know why she now repeatedly reminds herself to do well all the things her aunt-in-law has asked her to do.
If her aunt had told her not to tell anyone about something, she had to keep it to herself. I don't know whether her grandmother had explained it to her or she had realized it herself.
But it doesn't matter. She will definitely listen to her aunt-in-law. Her aunt-in-law is simply the most capable person she knows, so she must also work hard and learn from her aunt-in-law, strive to be independent as soon as possible, and not let her aunt-in-law worry about her too much.
