Chapter 549 The Lady's Box Exploded
Qin Yao glanced at him and said, "After dinner, wash up and come to my room."
"Ah, this, this." Liu Ji looked at the children and Yin Le Awang on the table, and said to Qin Yao awkwardly, "The children are here, it's not a good idea to talk about this."
Qin Yao's face darkened, and someone immediately shut up, smiled and nodded, "Got it, my lady, please eat quickly."
If he doesn't eat, he'll go crazy with hunger!
Qin Yao shook her head, too lazy to look at the sloppy appearance of this farmer, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
After dinner, Qin Yao went back to her room first. Everyone in the family finished their own work and went back to their own rooms.
Liu Ji was the last one to come out of the shower room. After a careful wash, he felt two pounds lighter.
Taking a deep breath towards the night sky, Liu Laosan finally came back to life!
Looking up at the main house opposite with the lights on, Liu Ji lowered his head to straighten the folds on his white robe. After thinking for a while, he pulled the collar slightly outwards, revealing his collarbone.
Whether or not the evil woman can be completely appeased and restored to her former status depends on tonight.
With a heart full of bravery and determination, Liu Ji strode to the door of the main house and knocked lightly on it.
"Ma'am, can I come in?"
"Enter."
The door was pushed open and then closed gently.
There was only one candle lit in the room, illuminating the small area in front of the table.
Qin Yao was sitting at the table, calculating with one hand and recording with the other. On the table were the land, houses and shops sent by the Shen, Deng and Qian families.
If you take someone's things, you have to do it well. Qin Yao didn't even raise her head, pointed to the empty seat opposite and asked Liu Ji to sit down, and said:
"Go to the city tomorrow and settle the affairs of these three families. Since we have received benefits from them, we should not let them rush us."
As he said this, he handed the land, house and shop he had calculated to Liu Ji for a look, "The Shen family gave us a small courtyard with two entrances in the suburbs and a 15-square-meter street-facing shop on East Street in the city."
"The Deng family gave us ten acres of top-quality paddy fields and thirty acres of forests, all located in Lanxiang Town."
"There is also the Qian family. This cloth shop is the largest in Kaiyang County. They sent ten rolls of silk and twenty rolls of cotton cloth. These are items that can be clearly priced and are the most convenient to circulate."
Qin Yao prepared five rolls of silk to be sent to Lianyuan in the name of Liu Ji as there were not enough for her family to wear.
Five pieces of cotton cloth were given to the old house, one piece each for the two elders, and one piece for the rest of the family.
Qin Yao plans to rent out all the shops and yards given by the Shen family, and collect a lot of rent every month.
As for the paddy fields and mountain forests given by the Deng family, we have to go on an on-site inspection before making any arrangements.
The paddy field is easy to deal with, just rent it out. I heard that there are fruit trees planted in that mountain forest. If there is any yield, Qin Yao plans to ask Song Yu to find a local farmer to help take care of it.
Liu Ji listened to the crackling sound of the abacus in the room and was stunned. So, his wife asked him to come to her room at night. Didn't she want to do something improper?
"Did you hear everything I said? Or do you want to continue farming?" Qin Yao raised her eyes and asked dangerously.
Liu Ji quickly gathered his thoughts, took a deep breath, and summarized everything she had just told him.
Qin Yao nodded in satisfaction, cleaned up the table, and found that Liu Ji had not left yet, so she asked coldly: "Do you want to stay?"
"No, no, no, ma'am, you take a rest. I'm leaving now." Liu Ji quickly stood up and said flatteringly before leaving: "Ma'am, don't worry. I will go to the city tomorrow morning and complete all the tasks you have asked me to do. I will make sure there will be no mistakes or omissions."
After saying this, he pushed out quietly and closed the door carefully.
The wind was strong at night, making Liu Ji's neck cold. He quickly tightened his collar, which he had just opened, and walked towards the study with his arms folded. The corners of his mouth could not help but gradually rise.
The wife has assigned him another task, which shows that she still trusts him very much!
Thinking of this, Liu Ji's mouth grinned even wider, and the painful internal injuries in his body seemed to have all healed.
Returning to his own little world, Liu Ji took out a mirror and looked at himself. Seeing his haggard handsome face, he felt mixed emotions.
This evil woman was so cruel when she attacked, but she also knew to avoid his stunningly handsome face and not let him be too embarrassed in front of outsiders. She preserved his face as a scholar. She was also considerate of him, right?
Relying on his imagination, Liu Ji's mood returned to normal. He had a good sleep and changed from his previous decadence. He went to the city to do business in a refreshed mood early in the morning.
Qin Yao stood in the yard, looking at the figure walking away with ease, her brows slightly furrowed.
He recovered so quickly. Was it because he was careless or did he not take the lesson to heart at all?
Without giving Qin Yao time to think about it, Liu Bo came to her house with a letter sent from the capital.
It was a letter from Qiu Yan. Qin Yao opened it and glanced at the contents, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Liu Bo asked curiously, "What's the good news?"
Qin Yao handed him the letter and said with a smile, "The Lady's Box is selling like hot cakes in Beijing. Qiu Yan asked me how much I could give him before the New Year. The more the better."
Liu Bo was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly took the letter and read it carefully. The literacy class was not in vain, and he could already understand 70% to 80% of the content.
He returned the letter to Qin Yao and said excitedly, "Then we must tell Manager Song about this so that the factory can produce at full speed. According to our previous speed, we can produce two to three thousand."
Qin Yao raised her hand, "Not so much."
Without noticing Liu Bo's puzzled expression, Qin Yao instructed, "Brother, go back to the factory and tell Song Yu about this matter first. Ask him to call the managers to the meeting room. I will come later."
Liu Bo quickly agreed and trotted away.
Qin Yao went back to her room and changed into decent clothes. She told Li, who stayed at home, that there was no need to save lunch for her, and then she strode to the stationery factory.
The factory upgrade is nearing completion, and the entire land has been bought by the stationery factory. Now the new factory building is built next to the original stationery factory.
Most areas of the old factory have been demolished, and the branches have moved to the new factory, leaving only the cafeteria.
Qin Yao had no plan to continue demolishing this place. It would be a good idea to separate the canteen. Anyway, the distance between the new and old factory buildings was less than 50 meters.
Moreover, two rows of large courtyards will be built on the vacant land after the demolition to serve as dormitories so that workers who work from far away can rent them in the future.
The new factory is similar in structure to the original one, but the production lines are divided into two.
A small scale line for producing the original Shenli book boxes and gift boxes.
One large-scale one, and the most important one at present, is used to produce ladies' boxes.
In addition, there are two important raw material divisions, the embroidery room and the jade factory, located outside Liujia Village.
The embroidery room is responsible for all fabric products, and the jade factory is responsible for the production of all jade accessories. After production is completed on site, they are finally sent to the Liujiacun Stationery Factory for unified assembly and shipment.
With Song Yu and Yun Niang in charge of factory affairs, Qin Yao basically didn't have to worry about anything and only controlled the major directions.
For example, if Qiu Yan wrote to her today, she would come in person to announce the next production tasks.
Since it concerns the subsequent branding of the new product, Qin Yao has to personally supervise the implementation of the matter by all the managers before she can feel at ease.
