After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 321: Work and Housing [2]

The men from the five families, Yan, Zhang, Liu, Wang and Liu, were all delighted. They told the Qin family about their visit to Da'an Coach House and their half-day trial work.

Yan Da: "My Dalang, Wang's Dalang, Uncle Zhang's Baodi, Uncle Liu's Chengdi, all of them were accepted as apprentices because of their good eyesight and steady hands, and were able to learn the skill of driving."

"Now I am still an apprentice, and I get 500 coins a month, but after I become a master, I can get one or two taels of silver a month. After that, it can increase to one or two taels of silver, one or two taels of silver, and one or two taels of silver. After I become a master, my monthly salary can increase to two taels of silver!"

When the father and his two sons worked as porters, they worked very hard for a month, and the highest they earned was only one or two taels of silver. Now Yan Dalang alone can earn so much monthly salary.

"My elder brother Wang, Uncle Zhang and Uncle Liu and I have poor eyesight, so we can't learn to drive. So we got a job as a laborer, moving goods and taking care of livestock for the carriage and horse inn. We get 600 coins a month, and we get a full meal. In winter, we get a coat and two pairs of shoes."

This means a new set of winter clothes every year. After having children, he hasn’t dared to make new clothes for almost ten years. Unexpectedly, the inn would give them coats for free.

Yan Da almost cried when he thought about it.

"Brother Liu Sheng can read and do accounting, and his brain works well. He can tell how many pieces of goods have been received and how many have been shipped out at a glance. Shopkeeper Tang likes him very much and has asked him to be the accountant... With the old accountant guiding him, he now has a monthly salary of one tael of silver. If the accounts are correct in half a year, his salary can be increased to one tael and five cents. If the accounts are correct in three years, he can get a monthly salary of two taels of silver. He is really amazing."

Yan Da said excitedly, and pulled the youngest boy over: "This is Fang Ming, brother Liu Sheng's brother-in-law. Although he is only ten years old, he can read and write, so he got a job as a handyman, and now he has a monthly salary of 300 coins."

Even though the monthly salary is low, as long as he holds this position, this guy can be promoted to a senior engineer in five years.

Little Fang Ming felt a little embarrassed, and said, "I will work hard and will not embarrass you guys."

Liu Sheng said, "You can't neglect your studies. You must study hard to get opportunities. Just like today, if you can't recite the Three Character Classic and count the goods in eight carriages, Manager Tang wouldn't make an exception and give you a job."

Xiao Fangming assured: "Well, brother-in-law, don't worry, I will study and do homework every day, and I will never be lazy!"

Liu Sheng was relieved after hearing this... He had received great favors from his father-in-law's family, so after his father-in-law passed away, even though his family was not well off, he took his brother-in-law home to raise him. Now that he had found a job for him to make a living, he felt that he had done his father-in-law a favor.

Grandpa Qin and Uncle Qin were very happy for them: "You five families now have jobs, so you don't have to worry about your future."

Yan nodded, but he was still deeply worried: "From now on, my family will set up an altar and burn incense on the first and fifteenth day of every month, praying that the Da'an Inn can continue to operate for a long time."

But it must not go bankrupt. If Daan Coach House went bankrupt, they would lose their jobs, so he was very afraid.

Haha, Grandpa Qin laughed out loud when he heard this and comforted him: "Manager Tang is such a powerful person, but he is only the manager of Da'an Coach and Horse Inn. It can be seen that the owner of this coach and horse inn is more than ten times more powerful than Manager Tang. With such an owner supporting it, it will be difficult for the coach and horse inn to go bankrupt."

Nowadays, people and goods need carriages to travel, and carriage inns sometimes undertake the job of transporting supplies to government offices or military camps. This is an excellent business that will not go bankrupt easily.

After hearing this, Yan Da felt relieved, but he also thought that they were too poor, and if they stayed in the inn for too long, it would bring shame to the Qin family, so he stood up and said goodbye.

Grandpa Qin saw their reservedness and did not stay for long. He gave the persimmon cakes hanging in the guest house to several families as gifts: "The inn hangs them here for guests to eat. It's free. You can take them home and eat them without worry."

Yan Da and the others hesitated for a while, then accepted the persimmon cakes: "Thank you, Mr. Qin... Brother Qin, your father is so kind, you must be filial to him."

They heard that Qin Er was reluctant to go home, so they gave him some advice.

"Don't worry, I'm a well-known filial son!" Uncle Qin said, calling Yan Da and the others: "Come on, I'll take you to a good place and get you some good things."

This guy took several families to the inn kitchen, took a bunch of leftover chicken, duck, fish, meat, and flatbreads, put them in five food boxes, one for each family, and stuffed them into them: "These are all good things. I will come here to eat every day, and the guys in the inn will also take these meat and vegetables home to treat their families."

Although it was leftovers, it was a delicacy for poor people who seldom had meat.

The families didn't mind, they were just afraid that Uncle Qin would be gossiped about by the people in the inn.

Uncle Qin waved his hand and said, "Shopkeeper Xue Liu won't care about these things. He just doesn't want to waste food. He'll be happy if you guys eat it."

After hearing this, several families felt relieved to accept the food. After being sent out of the inn by Uncle Qin, they happily went home with the food boxes.

……

Three days later, the much-talked-about case of Boss Ma suddenly came to an end.

"I heard that Boss Ma was found to have committed a murder. He admitted it himself and provided evidence. The adults quickly sentenced him to beheading. His two adult sons were also involved and were the main culprits who secretly took the money for self-defense. They were also sentenced to beheading."

"His youngest son is fine, but the Ma family was raided. The youngest son and his female relatives were kicked out of the Ma family. The government office ordered them to leave the city within five days. The youngest son of the Ma family will never be able to move into the city to live again in his lifetime."

The people in the city gathered together, chattering about the Ma family's gossip.

Someone said: "The Ma family has offended so many people. If the Ma family leaves the city, they will probably die!"

"No, we are under strict control now, no one dares to kill people at this critical moment... However, being beaten, harassed, or even being sold out is unavoidable."

Someone said in a hateful voice: "The Ma Yongbiao family has committed many evil deeds. They have harmed so many families with their gambling houses and brothels. The families of innocent people who were fed with their flesh and blood were only sold as slaves. It's a bargain for them!"

"But don't gambling houses and brothels have their own backers? The Ma family is at best a lackey."

"Hey, Zhang boy, are you going to die? How dare you say such a thing? Shut up now, or you won't know when you will die!"

Why do you think Boss Ma suddenly pleaded guilty?

Why do you think there was suddenly no news about Boss Ma’s case?

It was because the boss behind the scenes took action to quickly cut off Boss Ma in order to preserve the boss's property in the capital. Otherwise, just the fact that Boss Ma asked the gangsters to find beautiful girls and forced them into prostitution would be a big deal!

Therefore, the boss behind the scenes wanted to kill Boss Ma as soon as possible to prevent the government from finding out more.

The three officials in the government office all preferred to play it safe, so they accepted that Boss Ma was the main culprit.

After several efforts, the case came to an abrupt end.

"Go away, go away, it's almost New Year, don't let your mouth send you to jail!"

After hearing this, everyone stopped talking about Boss Ma and dispersed.

……

Although the government handled the case in a rough manner, they still had some conscience. They returned the protective silver that had been taken from Wei Zhai for nearly twenty years and also issued rewards to several families. Several families made a fortune.
