This price is better than doing odd jobs in town, and what's more, the whole family can work in the workshop.
For a family of three, that’s ninety days!
It’s just too good.
After this was decided, Muramasa wrote a written agreement, and the heads of every household in the village put their fingerprints on it.
In this regard, Old Lady Huang did a good job, but she was worried that people would regret it if they saw her making money in the future.
Old Mrs. Huang placed the book in the space.
"Now, everyone is busy with their work, so I'll find someone to build the workshop. As for the site, the empty space at the back is just right."
Everyone agreed with what Old Lady Huang did.
After this matter was settled, Muramasa started talking about Huang Youwei again.
He said that everyone's life has become better and the children should not be delayed.
"Many poor children have become high-ranking officials through imperial examinations. I believe that the children in our village will also have a bright future."
There are so many children in the village, if one of them becomes a juren, it will be an honor for the whole village.
In his previous life, Huang Youwei was the only one. After passing the imperial examination, he took part in the autumn examination. Later, he won the championship after overcoming all obstacles.
I never thought that such a gifted child would be an ungrateful wolf trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful.
At Muramasa's suggestion, Huang Youwei came to his side and said, "Dear fellow villagers, I, Huang Youwei, have the confidence to teach the children in our village to become scholars, juren, or even the top three in the imperial court!"
The villagers were stunned for a moment, and then they applauded loudly.
He is Old Lady Huang's son, so everyone gives him face.
Then, Huang Youwei told everyone about the salary increase. Although some people had doubts, most people said they could accept it.
As for the school, Huang Youwei originally wanted to rent one in the village, but Old Lady Huang thought that since she was going to build a workshop, she might as well build two more and rent them to Huang Youwei later.
Huang Youwei listened, blinked, and said nothing in the end.
He originally thought, isn't it natural to ask his mother for a house?
Why are you still thinking of asking him for rent?
However, he thought again, it is possible that his mother was just talking casually and did not really want his rent.
In the end, all twenty boys in the village wanted to go to school, and Huang Youwei smiled and said that they could go there once the house was built.
To be honest, the tuition of one or two taels of silver a year is really cheap. Given the conditions in the village, it is too expensive and probably no one will go.
Huang Erniu also came. He huddled in the crowd, looking at the energetic Old Lady Huang and the high-spirited Huang Youwei in the middle, he felt deep regret.
If he had not been so confident before, he would now be like Huang Dalong and Huang Youwei, with no worries about food and clothing.
Maybe I can even take a concubine.
Anyway, Old Mrs. Huang was able to build a pastry workshop, so she should have a lot of money in her hands. If things were the same as before, all the money would be his!
And now...it can only be divided between Huang Dalong and Huang Youwei.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.
If he was living a good life now, it would be better, but he is living such a bad life now.
He glanced coldly at Tao Chunhua beside him. It was all this woman's fault!
If she hadn't been instigating him to ask Old Lady Huang for the family property, he wouldn't have really severed his relationship with Old Lady Huang.
He secretly made up his mind to reverse the situation. Old Mrs. Huang's money could only be his!
A vicious idea came into his mind.
