Chapter 1058 Entering the City
Zhang Juexia urged Li Yulan to get the embroidery, "Yulan, even if it's just to make up for it, I have to see the product!"
At Zhang Juexia's urging, Li Yulan took out the embroidery, and the two of them looked at and compared it.
"You know what, it's really good."
"It's a pity. If the market was good, these things wouldn't be left here with me."
"Then you keep it safe first!"
Li Yulan raised her head and looked at Zhang Juexia with bright eyes, "Okay, I'll listen to my sister-in-law and keep it for them first!
When they come tomorrow, I will teach them well.
Once they have learned it well and our business is booming, they will be able to take over."
"Well, that's right. Now is a good time to learn a craft."
Li Yulan pondered Zhang Juexia's words carefully, "Sister-in-law, I will tell them what you said tomorrow."
Zhang Juexia thought for a moment and said, "Yulan, we are idle now anyway, and the men are competing to learn martial arts.
So can we teach everyone to read?"
"This is indeed a good idea. I mentioned this a while ago, but Eryong rejected it outright."
“Why?
Teaching everyone to read is such a great thing! "
"Eryong said that everyone is busy farming and has no time."
“Now that the crops are planted in the fields, we have time.
Yulan, I have made the final decision on this matter."
With Zhang Juexia's strong efforts, the Zhangjiazhuang literacy class was soon opened.
At first, only children came, and gradually adults and women came. Zhang Juexia taught everyone while making promises. It was nothing more than that when the outside world became better, he would recommend whoever knew more words to work as a clerk in the shop.
Stone, who had the most say, spoke first and told everyone, "What the boss said is true. If you learn it now, it will definitely be useful in the future."
Shitou also told everyone how much a clerk in the shop earned a month, how much an accountant earned a month, not to mention the monthly salary of the shopkeeper.
Now, while there is someone to teach you and you have time to learn, you must study hard.
It will definitely come in handy in the future.
As a result, everyone in the village worked hard, some learning martial arts and some learning literature.
To know what was going on outside, Qin Eryong had to inquire from time to time, and sometimes Shen Liang would also bring some news.
The days passed slowly. Everyone was looking forward to the end of the year, hoping that the shops would be able to open for business as usual.
But at the end of the year, it is no different from any other day.
On the contrary, it is not as peaceful as usual. Shen Liang is a little unwilling to accept this. Zhang Juexia is concerned about the safety of everyone. He waves his hand and says that it is almost the New Year anyway, so why don’t we just stay closed for the time being and have a good New Year!
Wait until after the New Year before making plans.
Although Shen Liang was extremely unhappy, he still reluctantly agreed.
Zhang Juexia and Ye Ben spent the New Year with everyone in Zhangjiazhuang, and Ye Beixiu did not send any news back.
Zhang Juexia was quite certain in his heart that no news at this time was good news.
Anyway, it’s enough to know that he is in Qinglan City. As for other things, just wait patiently!
She originally wanted to bring some things back from Yejia Village and Shunhe County, but she couldn't find anyone to deliver the things, so she had to give up.
After the New Year, Chen Liang lost his patience again. Seeing him like this, Zhang Juexia wanted to find him a job. "Chen Liang, do you think that doing business is somewhat risky?
Although I earn a lot of money, it doesn't feel good when I don't make any money.
I remember I told you something and asked you to find out if there was anyone who wanted to sell the farm."
Shen Liang slapped his forehead with his hand, “If Madam hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten about it.
I'm going to the brokerage shop right now. To be honest, this is the best time to buy a house."
Zhang Juexia found a job for Chen Liang, so he stopped nagging her, and she finally had some peace and quiet.
A few days later, Shen Liang came excitedly, "Madam, the little emperor was driven off the dragon throne by King Cheng, and King Cheng ascended the throne."
Zhang Juexia frowned, "When did this happen? How come I haven't heard anything about it?"
“It’s normal that Madam didn’t hear it.
You usually hide in the farm, so these news spread faster in the city.
Madam, I have good news. I haven't told you yet. The court has just issued an order encouraging everyone to open their shops as soon as possible.
Over the past few days, Qingfeng City has gradually become lively.
Madam, can we open our shop now?"
Shen Liang had just said that Zhang Juexia was hiding in the manor and didn't know the situation outside, so she seemed to have no say, "Shen Liang, you can handle this matter."
Shen Liang did not refuse. He had been feeling very depressed recently. As long as the shop could be opened, he would be able to cheer up again.
"Madam, I have some clues about the matter you asked me to look into Zhuangzi.
But when the situation outside gradually improved, the man changed his mind and raised the price that had been agreed upon.
I was so angry that I turned him down."
"He's back, he's not meant to be with us anyway.
The farm is doing very well now, and everyone is taking good care of the crops.
As long as the new grain comes in, no one will go hungry."
"I've already told the pawnbroker's shop owner to keep an eye out for it.
Madam, I have to go to the city to do some work first.
If anything happens, I'll come back."
After Shen Liang left, Zhang Juexia also thought about returning to the city.
She discussed it with Qin Eryong, and Qin Eryong also supported her to return to the city.
“Eryong, I have enough people with me, so it shouldn’t be a big problem.
If it's as messy as before, I'll come back."
The people in the village reluctantly sent Zhang Juexia out of the village. Zhang Juexia repeatedly promised that she would come back.
These people all stopped, and taking advantage of this opportunity, Heizi whipped his horsewhip and the group rushed towards the city.
On the way back to the city, Li Yun kept talking, "Madam, to be honest, the village is good, but I don't think it's as good as the city."
The wet nurse holding Ye Ben looked at Li Yun with a smile, "Sister-in-law Yang, you are telling the truth. Of course, the city is better than the farm.
However, we cannot say that Zhuangzi is not good.
These days, it is thanks to us that we are living in the manor."
The carriage entered the city. Zhang Juexia looked at the familiar streets. Although they were still as deserted as before, at least they looked a lot cleaner.
There was a notice from the imperial court posted in front of the shop. Zhang Juexia jumped off the carriage and went over to join in the fun.
"It seems the imperial court is serious this time."
"If the imperial court doesn't intervene, we're going to be in dire straits."
"I don't have time to chat with you guys, I have to clean up the shop quickly and try to open it tomorrow.
That way you can save half a year’s worth of taxes!”
"I'm going too!"
Of course, there are also those who are pessimistic, worrying that the notice is a scam. "I mean, what if, what if it's like before the Chinese New Year, and we open the store but have no business!"
