If you want to order something custom-made, remember to arrive at the store early. There are only ten custom-made skirts. The first ten customers who arrive can order one. Those who don’t order one will have to wait until next month.
If you didn’t order a dress, don’t be sad. Our store still has many beautiful dresses for you to choose from. There is definitely one that you will like.
"We have a big discount! The first 50 people who make a purchase in our store will receive a scarf, also embroidered by our embroiderer," Li Yun said to the ladies.
"Miss, what is custom-made?" Until now, those ladies and young ladies did not understand what custom-made clothes were.
"Custom-made uniforms are tailor-made for you. On the opening day, I will draw five skirts that you have never worn or seen before, and let the ladies or young ladies who have obtained the custom-made quota choose the skirt they like and then pay a deposit of one thousand taels. When the skirt is made, the deposit of one thousand taels is the price of the skirt. That is to say, a set of custom-made skirts will cost one thousand taels." Li Yun introduced the custom-made uniforms to those ladies and young ladies.
The ladies and young ladies began to talk about it. Some thought that a dress costing one thousand taels was not expensive, while others thought it was too expensive and they could not afford it.
Li Yun dropped the bomb and ignored the ladies and girls, leaving with his family and the village chief.
When they arrived at the carriage, Dingxiang had already prepared the carriage and gifts and was waiting for Li Yun and the others at the door.
"Aunt, why did you take so long to come out?" Dingxiang has been waiting for Li Yun here for a long time.
So Li Yun told Dingxiang what had just happened.
"Aunt, please leave a set for my sister-in-law. She should wear it to show off in front of those ladies and young ladies." It was the first time that Dingxiang heard of custom-made clothes. She wanted to wear a unique set of clothes to make those ladies and younger sisters envious.
In fact, in the capital, every official's house has an embroiderer. They only make clothes for the master, the lady, the young master, and the young lady. The clothes are also unique, but the clothes they make are not as beautiful as those made by the young lady.
She also wanted the same skirt that her sister-in-law was wearing today, but she was too embarrassed to say it.
"Sister-in-law, you don't have to compete with them for custom orders. I will give you two sets of skirts that they don't have, which will definitely make your brother's eyes light up." Li Yun had already thought of what kind of skirt to make for her sister-in-law, but just kept it a secret.
"Okay, sister-in-law will wait for my aunt to give me a beautiful dress." Dingxiang knew that her aunt was going to give her a dress, so she gave up the idea of competing with those ladies and young ladies for a custom-made one.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law will definitely like it. It's getting late now, sister-in-law, we have to go back." Li Yun looked at the sky. It was getting late. He wanted to take his family and the village chief to visit Qingshan County later.
"Yes, I almost forgot about this.
"Dabao, Erbao, Sanbao, when you have time, ask mom to bring you to your aunt's house to play?" Dingxiang said to Dabao and his two siblings.
"Okay, when aunt is free, she and uncle should come to our house to play." Dabao and his two siblings said to Dingxiang.
Li Yun helped Qin Lanlan get on the carriage, and then got on with Sanbao in his arms. After saying goodbye to Dingxiang, he sat in the carriage and waited for the coachman to drive away.
Two carriages followed behind, one carrying Chen Mo, the village chief, Dabao and Erbao, and the other carrying the gifts prepared by Dingxiang.
Li Yun asked the driver to wait for her at the city gate, and she took her family and the village chief to visit Qingshan County.
It was the first time that Dabao and his two siblings went out to play. Everything they saw was new and interesting. Li Yun would buy them anything they liked, and he also bought a lot of things for the village chief. The village chief couldn't refuse and had to accept them.
After strolling for half an hour, Li Yun took his family and the village chief to the city gate and took a carriage home.
Everything that happened today had a huge impact on the village chief. Not only did he dine at the county magistrate's house, he also dined at the same table with him. After returning home, he could brag about it to the other village chiefs for a long time.
Moreover, Li Yatou is the sister of the county magistrate. When he returns, he will give the villagers a good warning and tell them not to discredit Li Yatou in their words and deeds.
With the county magistrate as their backer, no one dares to bully Qingshan Village.
Besides, since Li Yatou was able to take out those glass bracelets and give them to the county magistrate in no time, her previous family must be extraordinary. Perhaps Li Yatou could lead their Qingshan Village out of poverty and lead them to live a good life.
Li Yun didn't know what the village chief was thinking. If she knew, she would definitely give him a thumbs up. He was so far-sighted. This showed that he had a lot of abilities.
After returning to the village entrance, he asked the coachman to take the village chief home first, and also asked the coachman to help the village chief take his things down, and then the three carriages drove back home.
When I got home, Manager Cui came with a few servants to move things.
Dingxiang prepared things such as cloth, snacks and candies.
Prepare a small box of jewelry for Li Yun, and a hairpin and a pair of bracelets for Qin Lanlan.
I prepared two sets of dresses, a box of toys for little girls, and some jewelry for Sanbao.
For Dabao and Erbao, I prepared some toys for little boys, some pens, ink, paper and inkstone. The pens were wolf-hair pens, and Chen Mo prepared a crown.
Just as I finished dividing the things, Manager Cui came in.
"Master, the wasteland has been cleared. What should we do next?"
After the wasteland was cleared, farming began.
"Manager Cui, please pay the villagers the remaining wages.
The wages of villagers from other villages also need to be paid.
"It seems those villagers haven't been paid. Go find the old man and get a copy of the list of those villagers. Those who received their wages must sign, and those who can't sign can fingerprint their thumbs," Li Yun instructed Manager Cui.
"Master, do we just press our thumbs on their names?" Manager Cui didn't understand what the master meant by signature.
Yes! What I was talking about was the attendance record of my previous life. These people didn't know what it was.
"Manager Cui, wait a moment. I'll draw you an attendance sheet." Li Yun said this, and without waiting for Manager Cui's response, he returned to his room and drew an attendance sheet from his past life based on his memories. This sheet is suitable for worker assessments at construction sites, factories, and shopping malls.
After drawing up the attendance sheet, he took it to see Manager Cui.
"Manager Cui, this is the attendance sheet. Can you see if you can understand it?" Li Yun handed Manager Cui an attendance sheet.
Manager Cui took it and looked at the lines inside carefully, but he just couldn't understand what it was for.
"Master, what does this attendance sheet mean?" Manager Cui said to Li Yun.
"This is where we record the number of days the villagers worked, the daily price, and the total amount of silver they received." Li Yun carefully explained to Manager Cui what each horizontal and vertical grid on the attendance sheet meant. She explained any unclear points carefully until Manager Cui fully understood them. Then she pointed to the last grid and said, "This is where the villagers sign or press their thumb."
After Manager Cui understood the mystery, he said to Li Yun.
"Master, this attendance sheet is really useful. It can be used in many places, such as shops."
"It's enough for Manager Cui to understand. You will be responsible for teaching the housekeeping team and the Golden Abacus team this attendance sheet. You will use this attendance sheet in the future." Li Yun said to Manager Cui.
After opening the store, I will make some minor changes to the attendance sheet and turn it into a report.
"Yes, master." Manager Cui left to pay the villagers their wages.
