Chapter 121 Plowing



When Li Yun returned home, the sun had already set.

After dinner, I helped Dabao, Erbao and Sanbao wash up and then went to bed.

Because everyone was very tired today, they fell asleep quickly.

Early in the morning, everyone got up. Li Yun helped Qin Lanlan make breakfast, while Dabao and his two siblings went back to their room to recite subtraction formulas.

After breakfast, Li Yun went to find Ye Shan and Fang Xiaowei. Ye Shan and Fang Xiaowei both lived in the second house.

When he arrived at the door of the second house, he was seen by Ye Shan.

"Master, why are you here? If you have something to ask, just call us over. There's no need to come here in person." Ye Shan said.

"It's okay. It's just a few steps away. I want to discuss something with you and Fang Xiaowei. Let's talk inside." Li Yun said to Ye Shan.

"Master, please." Ye Shan made a gesture of invitation.

After Li Yun went in, Xiao Fang Wei also came out.

"Master, do you have something for us to do?" Fang Xiaowei worked as a maid in a wealthy family and was very good at reading people's expressions.

As soon as she saw Li Yun's expression, she knew that there was something for them to do.

"Yes, let's go inside and talk." Li Yun said and went into a room.

Ye Shan and Xiao Fang Wei followed him in. Before entering, they asked someone to prepare tea for Li Yun.

Li Yun sat on the bed and said to Ye Shan: "Ye Shan, I bought a shop in the county town and plan to open an embroidery workshop.

You lead the embroidery team to prepare and make the skirts according to these drawings, as well as the skirt you wore for the first time and the skirt you wore yesterday. Make ten sets of each style.

Five sets of each style were made for the old lady to wear twice, twenty sets of each style were made for the young master and the young lady to wear two sets, and five sets of each style were made for the old man to wear.

According to those drawings, we made twenty sets of each design.

Can it be done?

Do you have enough manpower?

If it’s not enough, ask Manager Cui to accompany you to the county town to buy some people tomorrow. The people in town don’t have the best skills as those in the county town.”

"Master, we don't have enough manpower. If we had enough manpower, we could have made it." Ye Shan calculated that there were 260 sets to be made, and with only a few people, they would not be able to handle it.

"Tomorrow, have Manager Cui accompany you to the county town to buy people. Also, I plan to make custom clothes. I will give you five drawings every month, and only make one set for each. These will be made according to the sizes of the ladies after they have chosen them. I will only make five sets per month.

This custom-made suit will be left to you. I will also find four people with good skills, good character, and a tacit understanding with you to help you complete the customization.

Each of you will be responsible for one set of custom-made clothes each month, and I will give you a commission of 100 taels." Li Yun said to Ye Shan.

"Master, don't worry. I will take care of this. I will definitely find someone trustworthy to make the custom-made clothes." A commission of one hundred taels. They had never seen a commission of one hundred taels in the master's house before.

They only provided them with food and clothing, and gave them ten cents a month.

"Okay, I trust you. I'll leave this matter to you." Li Yun was still very confident in Ye Shan's ability to do things.

"Master, I won't disturb you, Xiaowei, from talking about things." Ye Shan said and left the room.

Li Yun took a sip of tea and then said to Fang Xiaowei.

"Xiao Wei, I plan to open a milk tea shop and a fruit and vegetable shop in town. Both shops need waiters, and the embroidery workshop also needs waiters. Please prepare and gather them together. I will teach them some skills in a few days.

The embroidery shop needs five waiters, the milk tea shop needs six waiters, and the fruit and vegetable shop needs six waiters. If you are short of staff, go to the county town with Ye Shan tomorrow to recruit more. Li Yun said to Fang Xiaowei.

"Master, it's not enough to have so many people." Fang Wei calculated and found that the manpower was still not enough to meet the master's requirements.

"Tomorrow, you, Ye Shan and Manager Cui will go to the county town to buy people." Li Yun said to Fang Xiaowei.

"Yes, master." Fang Xiaowei said.

"You go and do your work, I have to go back too." After saying that, Li Yun left the house and went to find An Yi.

"Master, why are you here?" An Yi asked in confusion when he saw Li Yun coming.

“An Yi, do you still have brothers without masters?

If there are, bring them here. Yueyin is the same as you.

The people you bring here must be loyal. I don't want any betrayers." Li Yun said to An Yi.

"Master, I need to contact someone to find out. I can't reply to you now." An Yi said to Li Yun.

His brothers are secret guards. There are many of them. They have to ask the master before they can come.

"Okay, An Yi, this is the decoration plan of the embroidery workshop in the county. You can give it to Xu Kun tomorrow and then go do your business." Li Yun handed An Yi a decoration plan of the embroidery workshop with the address of the shop on the back, and then gave An Yi a bunch of keys.

"Yes, master." An Yi took the decoration drawings and keys.

After Li Yun finished explaining, he went home.

After Li Yun left, An Yi went to find Shangguan Feiyun.

"Master, the new master said that there are not enough people and asked his subordinates to find secret guards. What do you think we should do?" An Yi said to Shangguan Feiyun.

"An Wu, go call Fifteen to Twenty over and hand them over to your new master. Tell them not to reveal that I am your master, and teach them a lesson. Don't judge people by their appearance. Otherwise, treat them as traitors in the Dark Guard Camp and make them sign a contract to sell themselves." Shangguan Feiyun said to An Yi.

An Yi was surprised that his master would treat the person who made the mistake as a traitor in order to punish the new master.

The Dark Guard Battalion dealt with traitors in a way that was worse than death. They had to endure forty-nine lashes every day. An Yi was horrified just thinking about it.

"Yes, master, I will do it." After saying this, An Yi left the yard.

The next day, Li Yun got up and had breakfast with his family. Xu Kun sent a plow, and Li Yun asked Tian Ji to lead the peasant team, carrying the plow and the oxen to the wasteland.
