“Ouch!”
“Ahhh!”
The black bear and the Bengal tiger said they knew.
Li Yun took out two large buckets of space water from the space, placed them on the ground, and then said to the black bear and the Bengal tiger.
"This water is your reward. Drink it slowly and don't give it to other animals. If they drink it, their intelligence will be activated and you won't be able to beat them. Do you understand?" Li Yun said seriously to the black bear and the Bengal tiger.
“Ouch!”
“Ahhh!”
The black bear and the Bengal tiger said they understood, then happily walked away with the bucket in their mouths.
Li Yun looked at their expressions and suddenly burst out laughing. They were so cute, and their proud movements made her feel instantly adorable.
"Yun'er, what's so funny? Tell me." Shangguan Feiyun looked at the woman in front of him who was laughing heartily, and asked her with a confused look on his face.
"Don't you think the actions of the black bear and the Bengal tiger are funny?" Li Yun said to Shangguan Feiyun as he looked at the black bear and the Bengal tiger going away.
"It's really funny!" Shangguan Feiyun looked over and was also touched by their proud actions. They were indeed interesting.
"Okay, let's go back!" Li Yun said to Shangguan Feifeiyun.
Li Yun got on the carriage, and Shangguan Feiyun drove the carriage into the capital and returned to the Princess's Mansion.
Li Yun returned to the Princess's Mansion and went to see Lu Shao with the blueprints of the amusement park and holiday villa.
"Lu Shao, take a look at these drawings and see if they can be built." Li Yun handed the drawings to Lu Shao.
"Yes, master!" Lu Shao took the blueprint and looked at it carefully.
"Master, there are a few things I don't understand. I hope you can teach me!" Lu Shao looked at it for half an hour and roughly understood how it should be built. However, there were still a few things he didn't quite understand!
Li Yun explained one by one until Lu Shao understood clearly.
"Lu Shao, come with me to recruit people tomorrow. We will start work as soon as the land deed comes down." Li Yun said to Lu Shao.
"Yes, master." Lu Shao said.
Li Yun left and returned to his yard.
The next day, Li Yun took Lu Shao and Manager Cui to the most prosperous area of the capital to recruit people.
A recruitment sign stood aside, with a table and a chair next to it.
"Dear fellow villagers, we are here to recruit workers. We are looking for ten master bricklayers and one hundred laborers. As long as they are men with good character, diligent, dedicated to their duties, willing to work hard, and dedicated to their work, we want them all. Master bricklayers will receive fifty taels of silver a month, and laborers will receive fifty cents a day, and wages will be paid every ten days. Recruitment will begin now. Those who meet the requirements, please line up and sign up with me." Manager Cui stated the recruitment requirements and remuneration.
"Wow! Fifty wen a day, that's one tael of fifty wen a month. I want to sign up."
"Yes, I want to sign up too!"
"Wait, this isn't a lie, is it? How can something so good happen?"
"What did you say? You mean they're recruiting illegal workers?"
"No way? Why would we be fooled? Look at his clothes. He must be the steward of a wealthy family. Why would he lie to us?"
"That's right, if you want to cheat, you should cheat women. Why would you cheat us rough guys?"
"What's wrong with a rough guy? A rough guy can work. Haven't you heard of a black coal miner or a black iron worker?"
"You mean, he wants to recruit us to work in the coal mines? No way, recruiting illegal workers under the feet of the emperor, in full view of the public, isn't he afraid of being thrown into jail?"
The people in the capital were talking about it, some believed it, some did not.
Many people believed in him, after all, the treatment was so good. Soon, a long line formed in front of Manager Cui.
Lu Shao asked some questions to the people who registered. Those who passed the test were registered by Butler Cui, and those who failed were asked to leave.
Li Yun had certainly heard the people's discussions, but she didn't explain. The opportunity had been given, and whether they could seize it or not was none of her business.
Seeing that Manager Cui and Lu Shao were working in perfect harmony, Li Yun left the recruitment office and returned to the Princess's Mansion. He went to find Manager Qian and Construction Teams 15, 16, and 17, and took them to the outskirts of Beijing to recruit workers.
With Manager Qian, they boarded a carriage and went to the largest open space in the suburbs of Beijing. They put up a recruitment sign and started recruiting workers.
The villagers in the suburbs of Beijing didn't think too much about it. When they knew that someone was coming to recruit workers, they all ran around telling each other and their relatives and friends.
"Sir, is it really fifty cents a day?" A burly man with big eyebrows and thick eyes asked the shopkeeper Qian.
"Of course it's real. It's in the open space and hilltop not far ahead. Any man who meets the requirements can go to work. We provide a meal at noon and pay wages every ten days." Manager Qian said to the strong man.
"That's great. How many people do you want to recruit? I want my relatives to come as well. Is that okay?" The burly man asked Manager Cui nervously.
"Let's do this. We'll recruit people from nearby first. If there aren't enough people, we'll consider villagers far away. After all, safety is the most important thing!" said Manager Qian.
"Okay, I understand." said the strong man.
So the villagers began to line up to sign up.
The 15th, 16th, and 17th members of the construction team began to look at the villagers' hands and ask questions about the construction. Those who answered correctly were registered by the shopkeeper Qian, and those who could not answer were asked to leave.
Seeing that there was nothing for Li Yun to do, she asked Changjiang to take her back to the Princess's Mansion. Tomorrow was the palace banquet, and she wanted to see if the child's clothes were ready.
Back at the Princess's Mansion, Chen Mei brought back clothes.
"Sister-in-law, Dabao and the others' clothes are ready. Do you really want to take Xiaohua to the palace?" Chen Mei asked Li Yun with some concern.
"Of course, Dabao and the others are going to the palace banquet, and I'm worried about Xiaohua being left here alone," Li Yun said. Indeed, this time, Li Yun was taking Xiaohua to the palace banquet; she and Shangguan Feiyun had secured a spot. Arranging Xiaohua with Sanbao would allow her to see the world while also keeping Sanbao company, ensuring they wouldn't be lonely.
"But Xiaohua isn't my sister-in-law's child, so this doesn't make sense," Chen Mei said, still a little worried. She usually kept quiet wherever my sister-in-law took Xiaohua. She knew she was doing it for Xiaohua's own good, hoping she could get out of her shell and become cheerful and active. This time was different; she was entering the palace, and the slightest misstep could lead to her own death. She was also afraid that Xiaohua's personality would bring shame to my sister-in-law!
"Aunt, I know what you are worried about. Don't you have confidence in your daughter? Xiaohua has changed a lot, you have to believe in her." Li Yun said to Chen Mei earnestly.
"Okay, sister-in-law is right." Chen Mei felt that Li Yun was right and she should trust her daughter more.
Chen Mei showed Li Yun the clothes for her four children. Li Yun was very satisfied. These were imitations of ancient clothes from Haoduoduo. She drew the blueprints and asked Chen Mei to make them.
In the evening, the children came back and Li Yun asked them to try on the clothes. They all fit well and looked like noble princes and princesses, which made everyone happy. Especially Li Yun, seeing that his children were so beautiful and cute, he couldn't help but kiss each child on the forehead, which made them embarrassed.
There was only one person who was jealous and glared at Li Yun angrily.
