Su Qi didn't suffer any hardship in the Gu Mansion. The main reason was that those people were scared after being beaten, and they all knew that the accidents were caused by the Su family who protected their own people.
It wasn't that others thought of bullying her when they were on the road to exile, it was just that they didn't have the courage before.
Zhang Yunyu's nephew had his arms broken several times. Once, he was hit by a mad horse hoof and couldn't get out of bed for half a month.
These people originally thought that Su Qi had lost his support during his exile.
Start to vent the accumulated anger and resentment.
I didn't expect that she would cheat.
Full of fighting power.
There is also Gu Beiheng next to him who is ready to fight at any time.
This is what gives people a headache.
Baizhi regained her previous feeling, running happily and laughing happily.
Su Qi was so breathless that she finally caught her breath. "Baizhi, slow down a bit. I almost couldn't catch my breath. I was running so fast I thought someone was chasing me."
Bai Zhi paused and awkwardly tried to calm Su Qi down. "Madam, I see those people are like drowned dogs, and I feel inexplicably happy."
The two walked slowly for a while, and Xiao Liuzi ran over panting.
"Ma'am, I heard some grunting in the bushes just now on the road and thought it was a wild boar. I used a stick to poke it a few times and found out it was the old man over there.
I had no choice but to send him back. He kept cursing and swearing along the way, saying he had been kicked by someone. He also said that sooner or later he would find out who had done it, and he would kill the guy who did it.
Xiao Liuzi was talking with a cheerful expression and making gestures.
His eyes and eyebrows couldn't hide the pride of watching the fun.
"Don't talk about other people's business. He is also a big shot, don't say these things in front of the villagers." Su Qi suppressed the curve of his lips and walked towards the charcoal kiln not far away.
Xiao Liuzi chuckled, "Then I definitely won't tell you."
Gu Changgui was talking to several people from Mengjiazhuang next to the charcoal kiln.
He gestured with his hands from time to time and discussed the charcoal kiln seriously.
"Dr. Su is here."
Among the workers, there was a cousin of Meng Dagui. He quickly stood up, brushed off the dirt on his body, and looked at Su Qi and the others with a humble attitude.
The others were standing well too.
He secretly looked at the miracle doctor his wife mentioned, to see how he was different from an ordinary mortal.
Is such a young woman really a miracle doctor?
Aren't all miracle doctors white-haired? Even a woman should be an old lady. She looks so young, probably not even 20 years old.
Did you start learning medicine in the womb?
Everyone has a question in their mind.
"Madam, two charcoal kilns have been built, and the cave here has started to burn charcoal. The cave entrance was just sealed today. According to the experienced Meng Dachui, the kiln can be opened in two days." Gu Changgui pointed to the person who had called the miracle doctor earlier and introduced him to Su Qi.
"This is a veteran we found in the village. He used to work in a charcoal kiln."
Meng Dachui was about 25 years old, and looked quite old. He had dark skin and a simple and honest smile.
"Madam, although I was fired by the boss, my craftsmanship is really amazing." Meng Dachui was afraid that Su Qi would also fire him. He had been looking for a job all year long and had a few clumps of white hair.
The humble workers are afraid of having no jobs.
He blurted out that he was fired. His wife repeatedly told him to say that he quit his job and not that he was fired by his employer.
He thought of his wife's advice, and now he rubbed his hands together and smiled awkwardly. Is it too late to take back what he just said?
Su Qi didn't care about what he said about being fired, as long as his character was good, it would be fine.
"Do a good job. I don't want anyone who is cunning or dishonest here. If you do a good job, you will get a reward at the end of the year." Su Qi stood here with a serious face. His cold face was indescribably beautiful under the warm winter sun.
"Madam, we will work hard." Meng Dachui took the lead and agreed loudly.
He heard Su Qi say that this job was definitely safe. But didn't he have to behave well in front of the boss's wife?
Su Qi arrived at the newly built cave dwelling where workers were laying bricks. The charcoal kiln was already halfway built, and at this rate, it would only take two or three days.
The man who did the bricklaying work envied the man who burned the charcoal.
This is a long-term job, unlike these people who have nothing to do after doing this work.
"Madam, if you need us, just tell us. We can do any kind of heavy work." The thin old man said flatteringly.
He held the bricks in his hands and with a mason's knife he spread mud of clay mixed with water on the bricks.
Smooth the mud and pile it on top of the laid bricks.
Then another brick was covered with mud and piled on top.
Su Qi looked at the old man's hands, which were like dry branches, repeating the same movements over and over again. Her eyes were dark. "Don't worry. Once you're done here, Manager Gu will naturally arrange for you to do other work."
Watched for a while.
Su Qi went to Meng Dachui to ask about the charcoal problem.
According to Meng Dachui, the first kiln produces high-quality charcoal used by wealthy families, and ordinary charcoal will be produced after the other cave is built.
Su Qi pondered for a while.
"Let's build a few more cave dwellings."
"Madam, we are in Jinyang Prefecture. It's not that cold here. I'm afraid we won't be able to make money from burning too much charcoal. If we ship it to other places, the transportation cost will be unpredictable."
When Meng Dachu heard that Su Qi was going to build a charcoal kiln, he hurried to stop her.
Even if you have money at home, you can't waste it like this.
"Just follow my instructions. The weather this year is different from previous years."
The old farmer grinned.
"However cold it gets, can it snow heavily? In Jinyang Prefecture, we mostly only get frost. Snow is rare, and only wealthy landlords would need charcoal."
Su Qi looked over coldly and saw that most people were nodding.
Only two or three people were looking at the sky thoughtfully.
This is because no one in Jinyang Prefecture paid attention to it according to the thinking of previous years. According to the description in the book, the snow was more than three feet thick and countless people froze to death.
Su Qi planned to make a public announcement in advance.
This can serve as a warning to those who are aware of potential risks so that they can make preparations.
"You should stock up on food and warm clothing at home. It's best to store some in your cellar. You never know what the weather will do. What if there's a severe cold snap that only happens once in a century?"
The farmers were all stunned.
The boss's wife was talking nonsense, and she really looked like a miracle doctor. Most of them didn't care, thinking that Su Qi was a bit like a street vendor selling fake medicine.
After Su Qi said that, she naturally stopped caring about them.
Life and death are predestined, wealth and honor are bestowed by God.
She couldn't force others to believe her, but Meng Dachui's heart skipped a beat. He thought about going back to Meng Dagui to discuss it and see how true Su Qi's words were.
Unexpectedly, his decision saved their whole family.
Ever since Su Qi saved his wife, Meng Dagui has regarded Su Qi's words as imperial decrees.
Naturally, Su Qi followed his lead and began to get busy preparing furs for the winter, as well as charcoal and food in the cellar.
The exhaust holes were also made. Of course, this is all later.
After looking at the terrain here, Su Qi arranged for Gu Changgui to build six more charcoal kilns.
It doesn’t matter if it can’t be sold now. When the cold wave hits, I’m afraid some people will come with money to buy it.
Su Qi was thinking about renting a shop in town.
I have been in Mengjiazhuang for a few days, but I haven't been to the town yet.
He also gave some instructions to Gu Changgui and Meng Dachui, asking them to find as many people as possible to build the charcoal kiln.
Build another warehouse here, a bamboo warehouse.
After the first batch of charcoal is burned, it will be sent to the Gu family courtyard.
After Su Qi finished her instructions, she and Bai Zhi went back. Xiao Liuzi stayed behind to talk for a few minutes, then caught up with Su Qi and followed her back.
