When Lin Jiang brought Lin Xing and Lin Ruo home, Li Yu was in Lin He's study, thinking about his new story.
The success of her first book made her hesitant to write a second one, as she might ruin her good reputation at any time.
When she heard the sound of a car stopping, she knew that Lin Jiang had returned.
"Brother, you're back. Sister Xing and Sister Ruoruo are here too. Come in quickly. Sister Qing is here too."
Lin Mei came out of the house to greet them, and while she was talking, Lin Qing also came out.
"I knew the two sisters would come. We sisters can learn skills together."
She said.
Lin Xing asked them, "Hello, sisters. Where is Second Aunt? My sister Ruo and I want to thank Second Aunt in person."
Upon hearing this, Li Yu pushed the door open and walked out.
"I heard everything. Come in now. Why are you thanking me? We're all family, so don't be so polite. I, your second aunt, don't like strangers."
"Look at what Second Aunt said. Why has saying thank you become unfamiliar to me?" Lin Xing said.
"Stop being so polite, you are my nieces, and it is my duty to help you.
Learn your skills well, and bring your men and children to town to live a good life."
"Yes, we'll listen to Second Aunt." Lin Xing and Lin Ruo nodded in agreement.
"Okay, stop standing there and go inside to rest and drink some water. You'll learn from Meimei this afternoon. As long as you work hard, Second Auntie guarantees you'll make money."
She is very confident in her sweater business.
Now most of the people from Li Yu Sweater Shop have been found.
There are four sisters in the Lin family, and two girls, one is Zhao Yue’s niece from her mother’s side, and the other is her neighbor’s little daughter.
Now that everyone has been gathered, Li Yu must set some rules.
She asked Lin Mei to call a few people to the living room to talk.
"Everyone, find a place to sit. So far, most of the people in our store have found a place.
Although we are all relatives, some things still need to be discussed in advance."
"Second Aunt, just tell us what you want. We will definitely listen to you."
Lin Xing spoke. She was the elder sister, and her opinion represented the opinions of her younger sisters.
The other two people also nodded, meaning that they were listening.
"It seems their attitudes are all good," Li Yucai said seriously.
"As you all know, we come here to learn a craft, but our craft is different from embroidery and the like. I can guarantee that there is no one else who can do it in Tianqi Dynasty.
So confidentiality must be maintained and you cannot reveal it to anyone, including your family and friends. Do you understand?
Of course, verbal assurances are meaningless; I want absolute confidentiality."
When several people heard Li Yu's words about absolute confidentiality, they didn't know what she meant and looked at her in confusion.
"Second Aunt, how can we keep this absolutely confidential?"
Lin Ruo asked her.
"It's very simple, just like the workers in the village wool factory. You sign a document. If anyone leaks the secret and I find out, you have to pay 5,000 taels."
When they heard that they had to pay 5,000 taels in compensation, they were all shocked. They had never seen 50 taels in their lives, let alone 5,000 taels.
Looking at everyone's expressions, Li Yu knew that he had scared them, so he softened his voice and spoke.
"Don't be afraid. I know it's a lot of money, but as long as you don't have any bad intentions, you'll be fine.
Don't blame Second Aunt for being unkind. Even brothers should settle accounts. Second Aunt wouldn't dare to test people's hearts with her own interests.
Of course, your wages will not be low. I will give you 150 wen for knitting a sweater, 80 wen for a pair of woolen trousers, and 20 wen for socks, gloves and the like.
If anyone comes up with a new design that is not available in the store, I will reward her with 5 taels of silver.
How about it? If you agree, let’s sign the agreement now and start studying officially tomorrow.
If you can't accept it, I won't force you. I'll let Jiang take you back soon. Think about it carefully."
As soon as Li Yu finished speaking, Lin Xing responded, "I don't need to think about it, Second Aunt, I'll sign it!"
Lin Ruo and Lin Qing then also expressed their willingness to sign.
Seeing that her cousin Zhao Shilan and her playmate next door, Ma Dong'er, were still hesitating, Lin Qing became a little anxious.
"Cousin, what are you and Dong'er still hesitating about? Second Aunt won't harm us, so why don't you agree quickly?"
Li Yu could also understand their concerns, after all, they were not familiar with him.
"It's okay, think about it slowly. If you really can't make up your mind, go back and discuss it with your family.
How about this, you guys go back early today, discuss it with your family, and come back to give me an answer tomorrow."
After saying that, he turned and said to the Lin sisters.
"You three, come with me to the study, and we'll sign a document. Meimei will see the two girls off for me."
After saying that, he got up and left.
