Datang: My father is the head bodyguard

"It's not easy to find some money. What kind of lipstick does it cost? One or two for a small person?"

The man's reaction to the woman was not very happy: "Just use it for you, one or two taels of gold... Your man can earn seven taels a month! I'm telling you, it can last for half a year for daily use, it's not expensive."

Women have never used this kind of thing. They only picked amaranth when they were children and rubbed their lips with its juice.

Although she complained about her husband's wasteful spending, the shyness and fondness in her eyes made her man look straight at her.

"Spotting?"

The man held the child beside him who was chirping for toffee and sat on his lap. He stared at his wife without blinking: "Okay, Peugeot."

Peugeot is probably the highest level used to describe a village woman in this era. It includes a series of words of praise such as clean, tidy, beautiful, and beautiful.

In fact, everyone in Chencun is basically related to each other, and when they make money, they inevitably move around. However, this trend quickly disappeared.

Everyone makes the same money, and everyone buys similar things. If there's anything to do, just enjoy each other's lives.

Chen Zhili's home was not so happy and joyful. Chen Zhili sat in the house, holding the order and renderings in his hands and looking at them carefully.

"Other families have bought a lot of bacon, grandpa, it's so delicious."

Chen Zhili pulled his thoughts away from the house and looked at his wife and grandson standing behind him.

"Ah Qing, grandpa only bought a small amount of bacon and other things."

Ah Qing tilted his head: "It's okay, Grandpa must have his own ideas... But..."

Chen Zhili stood up, walked in front of Ah Qing, and put his hand on Ah Qing's head: "Grandpa asked Ah Qing to buy toffee, and I will buy bacon next month, okay? Go find your father." "

Ah Qing was still young, so she turned around and went to ask for toffee from her father. Chen Zhili looked at his old wife and couldn't open his mouth.

The old wife arranged his clothes and said, "We'll discuss it more next time."

Chen Zhili nodded: "Seven taels per person, I and Si Tiaozai, thirty-five taels, and 10 taels will be given to Ashin tomorrow, asking him to let Aqiang teach Si Tiaozai how to build. I bought building materials with 20 taels, and there are still five taels left. I bought some candies, pots and pans, and practical things.”

"Fortunately, Manager Lu from Baoli Trading Company gave me a gift, otherwise... I wouldn't have dared to return home."

Chen Zhili looked at his wife and picked up the renderings on the table: "It's okay, the four sons will listen to you, and you are not wrong. However, the two daughters-in-law also have things they want more or less, so it cannot always be like this."

"Is this the house you want to build?"

Chen Zhili's tone became much lighter: "Yeah, isn't it pretty? It's so pretty. My D lives on the first floor, and my two married children live on the second floor. Ah San and Ah Si are on the third floor. We can store some sundries in the attic. It’s all good too.”

--------------------------------

Chen Zhili found Chen Zhixin before starting work the next day: "Axin, I have something to ask you for help."

Chen Zhixin was stunned: "What happened? Someone robbed you of your wages? Or was your wages underpaid?"

Chen Zhili was also stunned: "No. Oh, that's not the case! I want my Sitiaozi to learn how to build a house from your Aqiang."

Before Chen Zhixin could say anything, Chen Zhili stuffed a handful of small denominations into Chen Zhixin's hand: "No, it's not for free. I'll pay for the tuition, ten taels."

Chen Zhixin frowned and pushed the money back to Chen Zhili. Chen Zhili still refused to take it back, so he just pushed and shoved him.

Chen Zhixin got angry and threw the money directly at Chen Zhili's chest: "Who do you think I am? You want money from Aqiang to learn how to build a house? Aqiang didn't even pay for the school himself, and it was arranged by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Grab the money and get out!"

Chen Zhili was stunned by the yelling. He turned around and was about to leave in confusion when he heard Chen Zhixin say behind him.

"Tomorrow I'll talk to Manager Xiao Lu, and the four of you will work on the construction of the chicken farm. Study hard, read more, and ask more questions. Do you know?"

Chen Zhili turned around and hugged Chen Zhixin directly, with a trembling voice: "Yes! Yes! If you don't study hard, I'll break the four children's legs!"

In the yamen, Li Chengqian sat at the table and frowned: "Qing'er, you mean... you can't cook anymore?"

Zhao Nanqing turned her back to Li Chengqian and said angrily: "Of course! Originally, we could make food for four to five thousand people in a hurry, but now we have fourteen to five thousand people. It's hard to do it!"

Lu Ruan also scratched his head: "There are still shortages of people in various positions. How about expanding the recruitment again?"

Zhao Zhe thought for a while: "Where will this person be recruited from? Why don't you ask Lao Chen? Are there any villages nearby? It's quite uncomfortable not being able to cook this food."

Li Chengqian thought about what Yuchi Baoqi would do, and then he suddenly had an idea: "Women in each village, how should the cooks be paid?"

Lu Ruan thought for a while: "If you can keep up with Qing'er, you can open ten liang, and then reduce it step by step, freeing Qing'er and letting her direct those women to do things."

Su Waner cleared her throat: "There is no need for Sister Qing'er to come in person. The maids I brought can command those women. They have been dealing with the servants in the mansion since they were young, and they have their own way of disciplining people."

Li Chengqian listened and followed suit: "You can discipline, but you can't break the law. And there is a high probability that the village women from the two villages will be recruited, so I'm afraid it won't be easy to manage."

What Li Chengqian didn't expect was that after he told Chen Zhixin and Lin Guan about recruiting village women to work as cooks, they agreed directly.

Li Chengqian asked tentatively: "The women in your two villages won't cause trouble, right?"

Lin Guan and Chen Zhixin both shook their heads: "What's the trouble? Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know. If Chen Cun hadn't been a member of the imperial court... er, workers, we Lin Cun and Chen Cun are family friends."

Chen Zhixin nodded: "When I first invited people to settle down, people from Lin Village also came to listen, but they just didn't want... to come and walk... to work. Many women from Lin Village married into our Chen Village, and there are also many women from Lin Village who married into our Chen Village. She married from our Chen Village to Lin Village."

Li Chengqian's face turned dark: "Can you separate the words imperial court and lackey, and don't tie me too tightly? Then it's settled, you can bring over women who are good at cooking and obedient. "

Lin Guan and Chen Zhixin said in unison: "How much do you want?"

Li Chengqian thought for a while: "Two hundred people each, four hundred in total. Today, Lao Zhao will temporarily find land to build a kitchen nearby. The four hundred people will be able to use it."

Chen Zhixin thought of what his brother Li had asked him to do in the morning: "Your Highness, my relative in the next room is named Chen Zhili. Do you still have any influence?"

Li Chengqian nodded: "If you fart, hurry up."

Chen Zhixin swallowed: "He wants his four sons to learn construction from A Qiang. You see..."

Li Chengqian slapped the table: "That's unreasonable! There are still people who love learning so much! That's right! Tell Lu Ru'an your name and mark the key points. If you want to learn anything new in the future, give priority to them."
