"Put your clothes and banknotes aside for now. We need to pay the manager of the manor."
Xiaohua quickly put all the banknotes back into the box, locked it up, and placed them all under the quilt along with the clothes.
"Go outside and call Nineteen and all the managers of the manor over here. Have them come to me to collect their money. Remember, don't miss anyone. If there's anything you need, do it after you've collected the money."
"Okay, this is the kind of thing I'm most willing to do. Please wait, I'll call someone for you." When he went out, he took Chunxiao's bowl with him. Not long after, the managers came and stood at the door calling the boss.
"All of you line up and come one by one."
Chunxiao gave money to them one by one. Not long after, Xiaohua also came to help. Including Nineteen, there were sixty-one people in the manor, and a total of six hundred and fifteen taels of silver were distributed. In fact, if she really wanted to reward them, Chunxiao could give them more, but they had never received so much money before. If they received too much money at once, they would become complacent and their appetites would be big, which would not be suitable for the long-term development of the manor. Ten taels of silver per person was the most appropriate.
After receiving the money, everyone went back happily.
"Boss, have you finished reading the account books?"
"No, I'll go over it again later." Chunxiao looked at Nineteen, "Nineteen, although I've given everyone money and you can spend it however you want, I still want to remind everyone to be careful with your money when you go out, so you don't lose money and get yourself upset."
"Boss, don't worry. I know them best. They wouldn't be willing to spend this much money. The farm usually has enough for everything, and there's no need to spend money. Most of it is saved."
"No matter what, it's always good to give a reminder." Chunxiao walked to the door of the main hall. The snow was still falling outside, but compared to yesterday evening, it seemed to be lighter. I don't know if it will stop tomorrow. The snow in the yard has been cleared, and there is no trace of snow except that the ground is a little wet.
She walked to the gate of the yard and looked around. The fields, trees, and houses were all covered in white snow. It was a beautiful winter scene. Unfortunately, she was in a hurry to go home and had no mood to appreciate the beauty.
Xiaohua came over and put the cloak on her. "Miss, it's snowing now. Look, your hair has turned white. Come in quickly."
"Xiaohua, look, has the snow gotten smaller?"
"It's a little smaller, but miss, even if it stops, we can't leave immediately. We have to wait for a few days for the snow to melt before we can leave. Don't be too anxious."
"I am a little anxious. This is my niece's once-in-a-lifetime wedding. If I'm not there, she'll blame me." Chun Xiao smiled helplessly, "I can imagine how she'll look then."
"You didn't do it on purpose. Besides, there are still about 20 days left. Even if you're delayed for a few days, you should still be able to catch up. At most, you can stay at Pengdong Manor for a day, settle the accounts, and then leave."
"Oh, there's nothing I can do. I'll just take it one step at a time."
