Chapter 373: Master Jiang is here

Yayi Zhang smiled and said, "The boy is here to thank the head of the village. I can make the decision on this matter. With three meals a day, everyone will have more energy to work."

The head of the village took Patriarch Wang back home with satisfaction. There was no time to deliver food today, so he sent their luggage over first.

That night, the village head asked Ye Laosan to help him find ten people to cook for the people who were doing labor service.

The money is paid by the village, and it is used to prepare two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes every day, which are large enough to fill you up.

A chef was also hired to cook for the yamen runners. Every meal was a table full of wine and meat.

A few yamen runners received benefits, and when they saw people working during the day, they would raise their hands and let them take a few more breaks.

The villagers are not ungrateful. They work hard every day and complete their daily work with guaranteed quality and quantity.

This official road at the gate is the only way for their village to go to Wu'an City.

The road was built to a higher standard than that set by the government, which made the yamen runners supervising it very satisfied.

For those who have not gone to the village, we will arrange people to go to various villages to collect firewood. This year, there is no time to cut down trees in the village, so we can only buy firewood from outside.

It will be in time to start burning charcoal again when those who are doing corvée labor come back.

Ye Qing went to the city early every morning and stayed in Linglong Pavilion.

When she arrived at the shop, she did not arrange every corner of the shop like Ye Fan did.

When she arrived at the shop, she went straight to the cashier's office. She picked up several picture albums in the bookstore and was fascinated by them.

All matters concerning Linglong Pavilion were handed over to Xiaobei. If he encountered any difficulty in making a decision, he would come to Ye Qing.

Although Ye Qing seemed to be not concerned with anything, he actually kept an eye on the business of the entire store.

Xiao Bei was a little panicked at the beginning, but when something really happened, he would learn from Ye Fan and solve it bit by bit.

After a few days, Xiao Bei became familiar with the place and came to see Ye Qing less and less often.

Ye Qing came to the store later and later, sometimes he just stayed for a while and then left, but Linglong Pavilion's business was still good.

Ye Xin, Ye Fan and Ye Xuan were assigned to the same group. Because of Ye Xuan's health condition, the Ye Xin brothers took good care of him.

After being busy for a few days, they found that the materials used for road construction had to be purchased, and the price was not cheap.

Ye Xuan and his colleagues had helped build workshops before, so they had some understanding of the prices of these materials.

While the villagers were delivering food, he took the letter back to Ye Qing.

When Ye Qing received the letter, he was still a little confused. He wondered what difficulties they had encountered that required someone to help.

When he opened the letter, Ye Qing had a smile in his eyes.

My brothers have been following me for a long time and can always find business opportunities.

Ye Qing thought about it and understood that this job was not easy to get and required connections.

They were planning to use the eldest brother's connections, as the eldest brother was a well-known figure in the government.

Ye Qing used an abacus to calculate and found that if the price was really what they said, he could make a lot of money.

The profits must be shared with the people in the county government. It is impossible for them to monopolize the profits.

When Ye Dalang returned home, Ye Qing went to ask for his opinion.

Ye Dalang thought about it and realized that the person who took the job was the county magistrate's brother-in-law, so they should not interfere.

Ye Qing backed off, as this should be the county magistrate's business.

When Ye Xuan and his companions received the reply, they were somewhat disappointed. They thought they could make a fortune from this.

Ye Qing quickly put the matter behind him. Master Jiang had already agreed to come to the village to teach.

The brothers were a little hesitant, as their original plan was to go to Bailu Academy and study with Ye Chenjing and others.

Now Master Jiang’s junior fellow apprentice may come to teach. He is an official who passed the imperial examination.

But Bailu Academy should not be underestimated, as it produced many Jinshi (Jinshi) scholars.

The family didn't understand these things and couldn't help them with any advice, so they went to see Master Jiang for advice.

Master Jiang likes these apprentices very much. "You should go to Bailu Academy. That academy has teaching experience. Although my junior brother is a Jinshi, he has not studied the examination questions for many years, and he is still not as professional as Bailu Academy."

The few of them suddenly realized something, thanked Master Jiang, and said goodbye and went back.

They were packing their bags and preparing to take the entrance exam to Bailu Academy.

Ping An was the happiest when Master Jiang came to the private school. He had met Master Jiang several times with his uncles, and Master Jiang liked this chubby boy very much.

Ye Qing followed Wei Xin to pick up Master Jiang. His younger brothers and sisters were not at home, so they had to help take care of Master Jiang.

Master Jiang came with his wife. They had just arrived when Wei Xin and Ye Qing arrived.

Wei Xin had come in advance to help clean the room, and the bed was new and very sturdy.

The two men helped Mrs. Jiang get familiar with the yard, then helped her make the bed, and then helped her put things in order.

Mrs. Jiang brought an old maid to take charge of the housework and cooking.

Madam Jiang liked Wei Xin and Ye Qing very much. "Good children, follow Qiao'er and call me grandma, don't call me Madam Jiang."

The two agreed in unison and invited Grandma Jiang to their home for a visit.
