Half of them learned storytelling, and the other half learned opera singing.

The Dragon Guards said that their master promised that as long as they were willing to learn opera and storytelling, and once they reached a level where they could perform on stage, they would be provided with food and lodging every month, as well as one or two taels of silver!

They provide food and lodging, plus a tael of silver!

And you don't even need to plant chili peppers in the fields...

Where can you find such a good deal?

Many people signed up in a short time.

The private school hadn't even started operating yet, but the students in the opera troupe had already begun practicing their singing.

Every morning, the sounds of people learning opera, singing "ee-ee-ya-ya," are like a reveille, waking everyone in the valley—a truly unique experience.

Guan Tao indeed sold the shop to Sun Xiang.

When they heard that Guan Tao and his wife had gone to work for Shen Qingyu, they dared not make things difficult for them and offered a high price of one thousand taels of silver.

Guan Tao didn't care about acting impulsively anymore. After taking the money back, he first compensated Doctor Mo for the leeches.

Then he asked Doctor Mo to continue treating Lady Guan's illness.

Having received the compensation, and upon learning that the family had sold their ancestral home to raise the money, Doctor Mo felt a rare sense of responsibility, realizing he hadn't reminded Madam Guan beforehand...

So Doctor Mo agreed to provide the remaining treatments for free.

Since Guan Niangzi was still unable to do anything, Guan Tao needed someone to help him shovel and knead the mud...

As a result, ceramic workshops also began to recruit apprentices.

The people of Hengshui Town gradually accepted the reality that Yu Ji's business in Shenjia Village was booming and needed a lot of manpower.

If anyone has someone strong and agile who needs help, ask Yu Ji or the village head of Shenjia Village. As long as they are honest, they can usually find something to do.

The biggest fear for people in the countryside is not working hard, but running out of energy and still not being able to afford food.

Therefore, when Yu Ji provided everyone with various ways to do things and make money, everyone was extremely grateful.
