Neither of them spoke for a long time. They both knew the answer in their hearts, especially Shen Jia, who was even more shocked. Shen Ci looked at his sister who was worried about this, turned around and left, leaving her alone to think quietly.
After Shen Jia saw the three girls again, he felt that their dirty appearance was indeed a good disguise. Just by washing their faces, he could see that the three girls were skinny, with sunken eye sockets and no flesh on their cheeks, as if there was only a layer of skin attached to their skulls.
When the three men saw Shen Jia coming, they couldn't help but step back guiltily, obviously still wary of Shen Jia's harsh attitude just now.
Fuqiu looked at the three people who were frightened and stepped forward and said, "They were just scared by you just now. Don't take it too seriously. Seeing them like this reminds me of how you took me away from the street before.
If it weren't for you, I don't know what would have happened to me now. They are in a dilemma now and have no choice but to steal."
Shen Jia felt a little uncomfortable listening to Fuqiu's praise. She looked carefully at the three people who were trying to stand upright and said:
"I won't hold you accountable this time. In light of Fuqiu's plea, from now on, the three of you can come to our workshop openly to take away the remaining bean dregs. I will report this to the person in charge of the bean dregs.
Just think of it as me being kind and wanting to do a good deed. You just need to come to the workshop on time at the beginning of each day. Apart from what we need for the workshop, you can take everything else back with you.
However, when you bring the food back, you must be a little more discreet. You also know that it is a crime to possess a treasure. If people find out that you have so much food, it will definitely attract other people's attention."
"Thank you, thank you!"
The three of them kowtowed again, having never expected such an encounter. Because Shen Jia had ordered them to wait until all the workers in the workshop had finished their work, they would not leave the house until they had taken enough bean dregs from Yang Shu to feed everyone in their dilapidated temple for a day before leaving.
Because the workshop's output has been increasing recently and the new products are being loved by more and more people, a lot of waste is actually generated.
There is almost no place to put the waste from the workers and mules, and the victims in the ruined temple can be considered a small place to go. She now wants to make the bean dregs directly into fertilizer, otherwise it would be too wasteful.
Nitrogen fertilizer made from bean dregs can greatly promote the growth and development of plants, thereby increasing yield.
It seems that such a small space is not enough for her to display her talents, and the matter of opening branches must be accelerated.
Shen Jia's frantic movements these days were so intense that it was hard not to notice. Especially when Shen Ci was questioned by Shen Jia that day, she thought that Shen Jia was stimulated after seeing too many limitations of the times, and she secretly hinted at her, trying to find out her inner thoughts.
So when Shen Jia told the Shen family that she had bought several plots of mountain land around the workshop and planned to use them to expand the workshop and develop other businesses, he was not surprised at all.
On the contrary, he felt that if this was Shen Jia's active pursuit of breakthroughs after encountering problems, then he would definitely try his best to support her.
Now, no one can give Shen Jia any advice on her business affairs, mainly because the business is getting bigger and bigger, and no one in their family has ever done it before.
Apart from applause and congratulations, she had to work hard on everything else, so the expanded meeting of Shen's Tofu Workshop was a complete success.
Because of the previous experience, when expanding the two buildings with similar external structures this time, Shen Jia only got the blueprints from the system for the oil press workshop that she had been thinking about. The fertilizer workshop had to be imitated from the previous one, but it really did not require very high technical content.
But when Shen Jia looked at An Yun who had suddenly come to find her, her doubts were clearly revealed. Seeing An Yun hesitant and unable to speak, she was the first to speak:
"I wonder what's the matter with Brother An that you've come to see me about? If there's anything I can help with, I'll definitely lend a hand."
Considering that the two of them can ignore worldly views and still work hard to live in this era, she will definitely not be stingy wherever she can help.
If she hadn't been shocked by the group of displaced girls last time, she might not be so proactive now. But she knew that in her eyes, the An couple were just a normal family from beginning to end.
An Yun nervously pinched the hem of his clothes with his hands. In fact, he knew that it would be better for people like him not to go to the Shen family. People like them who are full of stains should hide in the corner and live a miserable life.
But he really had no other choice. Hui Niang was seriously ill and the money in the family could not last long. Now the whole family was hiding in a dilapidated temple and struggling to survive.
A few days ago, he heard that someone was doing odd jobs in a tofu workshop and could get some bean dregs every day to barely survive. He became interested, and when he heard the news that the Shenfu workshop was going to expand, his legs began to become uncontrollable.
By the time he realized that he had walked in front of the Shen family, it was too late to regret. Hearing Shen Jia's words of willingness to help, he felt even more despicable.
He had only let someone stay for one night, and now he was eagerly looking for a reward. However, thinking back to the family trembling in the dilapidated temple, he hardened his heart and begged:
"Miss Shen, I'm really sorry. I came to you because I really had no other choice. We've reached the end of our rope. Hui Niang is really ill at home, and I'm lame, so I can't find any work.
I came to you today to ask if I could come and work in your soon-to-be-expanded workshop. The wages are paid daily, and I want to feed my family first."
Looking at An Yun's conflicted look, Shen Jia knew that if it had not come to this point, An Yun would never come to him for help.
"No problem, it's all a small matter. It's just that you and sister-in-law are no longer next door to the Shen residence. Where do you live now? If I had known earlier, I would definitely come to your house. Hui Niang is also a lovely child."
"To be honest, we're living in a dilapidated temple right now. Hui Niang has a high fever that keeps coming back, and we're really worried. The doctor said we should give her a few more doses of medicine and see how things go."
It turned out to be a dilapidated temple!
This place name once again appeared in Shen Jia's ears. Looking at the haggard An Yun, and recalling the situation when he stayed at his house before, Shen Jia said:
"Since Brother An is willing to work, why don't you come to our workshop and give us a hand? By the way, you can help our workshop deter those scoundrels. We are currently gaining momentum, and there are many people who are secretly watching us.
A dilapidated temple isn't a good place to cultivate yourself. Bring your whole family with you when you return. We have several beds in the workshop for you to stay in."
An Yun had never expected Shen Jia to extend an olive branch to him, and even let his family live in the workshop. He had never thought of such a good thing. Looking at the serious Shen Jia, he quickly said:
"Thank you, thank you so much for your generous help. From now on, I will follow Miss Shen's lead!"
"Go and bring my sister-in-law here first. We can't stay in this cold and dilapidated temple any longer."
Seeing An Yun bursting into tears of gratitude and even wanting to kneel down on the spot, Shen Jia quickly stopped him. Seeing that he was so excited that his originally disabled legs could not even be seen, Shen Jia's eyes were full of smiles.
I hope I can help some people, especially those who are more courageous than me. I hope I can draw more strength from them.
