In the following days, people came in droves for interviews. Even people from neighboring counties came to interview after hearing that Canghe Li Ji was recruiting a lot of talent.
Many successful business owners are also very cautious, fearing that the talents they have painstakingly cultivated will be poached by Canghe Liji.
However, this is not something that can be solved by worrying. With the benefits offered by Canghe Li Ji, not only are the shopkeepers and accountants tempted, but even the owners of some small shops are tempted.
However, it gradually decreased over time.
After all, Chengyang County has a limited population, especially talented individuals like this.
Yan Qingqing also breathed a sigh of relief, as the few dozen people they had hired should be enough for the time being.
All that's left is to provide standardized training.
This training program included not only the newly recruited staff, but also the management personnel who had been promoted from the previous workshops.
Yan Qingqing was going to give them a comprehensive training, covering everything from bookkeeping methods to business models and the operating philosophy of Canghe Liji.
After hearing about this, Xu rushed to Yan Qingqing's house.
Without bothering with formalities with Yan Qingqing, he went straight to the point and said, "Second sister-in-law, I heard that you are going to provide comprehensive training for the people in the workshop."
You can't favor one over the other. Xinniang and Yueniang aren't here, and Huiniang is busy with housework.
I had no choice but to swallow my pride and go to my second sister-in-law.
"We have several promising young women in our embroidery workshop, all of whom Yue Niang and I have our eye on and want to promote in the future. Let them come and learn together."
It was rare for Madam Xu to be so attentive to the embroidery workshop, so how could Yan Qingqing refuse?
She immediately agreed, and upon hearing this, Xu happily returned to the embroidery workshop to announce the good news.
Yan Qingqing personally led this training session.
In fact, Li Xiang'an would be the most suitable person to handle this matter. Unfortunately, he is currently far away in the prefectural city.
However, Yan Qingqing's involvement also has its advantages. Given her current status, her personal training of them not only greatly enhances their concentration but also makes them feel extremely honored.
If this skill develops, one can later claim that it was Mingzhao Shuo Ren who taught them.
Having such a powerful mentor is a great source of bragging rights.
A month passed quickly, their training ended, and the next step was job placement.
After investigation and comprehensive consideration, Yan Qingqing dispatched a small group of people to the prefectural city.
The rest of the staff stayed in the various workshops in Canghe Town to familiarize themselves with the situation.
That day, Yan Qingqing was in the workshop explaining to Li Sanniu the things the new recruits should pay attention to after entering the workshop.
A large group of people entered Canghe Town and headed straight for Yan Qingqing's house.
Soon, Ruyi rushed in and said, "Madam, hurry, hurry home. An imperial decree has arrived from the palace. Madam, you have been promoted again."
Yan Qingqing was taken aback when she heard this. More than half a year had passed since that great disaster.
Even Ling Ziyuan has been in the capital for several months now.
The imperial court's reward for her was delayed. She had already given up hope. Unexpectedly, the emperor was still thinking about it.
Seeing Yan Qingqing standing there silently, lost in thought, Li Sanniu was so anxious he stamped his feet. How could his second sister-in-law be so calm?
That's a promotion! Yan Qingqing is already a fourth-rank imperial consort, a third-rank title. If she gets promoted again, she'll be in a very high position.
The Li family is truly blessed with good fortune.
So Li Sanniu urged, "Second sister-in-law, hurry home to receive the imperial decree!"
"I'll go with you too. No, this is a big deal. I need to tell Dad and Uncle Mayor."
Without waiting for Yan Qingqing's reaction, he ran away in a flash.
Yan Qingqing looked at Li Sanniu speechlessly; why was Li Sanniu even more excited than she was?
However, she had to hurry back after receiving the imperial decree from the palace; she could not afford to delay.
So Yan Qingqing hurried back with Ruyi.
The entire Canghe Town was in an uproar, with most people seeing the palace officials enter Yan Qingqing's house.
Everyone was speculating about what big event had happened to the Li family this time.
Based on the experience of the past few years, it seems that someone is about to be promoted and make a fortune.
Everyone was incredibly envious, but they were also genuinely happy for Yan Qingqing's family, because they all knew that without Yan Qingqing, there would be no Canghe Town as it is today, and certainly no them.
In other words, Yan Qingqing is now the guardian deity of their Canghe Town.
When Yan Qingqing arrived home, she found the courtyard filled with things, and all the guards and the eunuchs who delivered the imperial edicts were standing in the courtyard.
Li Xiangping and Yuan Huiniang stayed by his side.
In the past, when eunuchs from the palace came to deliver imperial edicts, they were always invited to sit in the seat of honor or wait in the flower hall while drinking tea.
Yan Qingqing wondered why Li Xiangping and the others were standing in the courtyard this time, thinking it was because they hadn't been hospitable enough.
Yan Qingqing was about to step forward to greet them.
Unexpectedly, the eunuch who delivered the imperial decree had sharper eyes and spotted Yan Qingqing at a glance.
He quickly walked up to Yan Qingqing, bowed, and said, "This servant greets Madam Mingzhao."
Yan Qingqing was startled upon hearing this, but she remained calm and said, "Father-in-law, you are too kind."
I am merely a concubine bestowed the title of "Shuoren" by the Emperor; I am unworthy of being called "Madam" by you, Eunuch.
Although the servants in the house would privately call Yan Qingqing "Madam".
But this lady is not that lady.
This lady is vastly different from Lady Mingzhao.
The young eunuch smiled and looked up. Yan Qingqing recognized him immediately.
The eunuch who came to deliver the imperial decree this time was still Eunuch Yue, Eunuch Xiang's apprentice.
Then Eunuch Yue said with a smile, "You are no longer Lady Mingzhao, but Lady Mingzhao, bestowed by the Emperor himself."
Yan Qingqing's face finally lit up with joy. She cupped her hands and said, "Your Majesty's grace is truly beyond repayment."
Turning to Li Xiangping, he asked, "Xiangping, is the incense table ready?"
Li Xiangping quickly nodded and said, "Mother prepared it a long time ago; it was Hui Niang who prepared it herself."
Yan Qingqing nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this. Having received so many imperial edicts, she had become familiar with this process.
Even Yuan Hui can operate it skillfully now.
Eunuch Yue also smiled and said, "It's really rare to find people like Madam Mingzhao's family who are so polite and follow the rules."
Some princes and nobles in the capital, especially scions of prominent families, would privately waive these formalities when receiving the imperial decree.
Naturally, no one would dare to gossip or spread rumors in front of the emperor.
Yan Qingqing just smiled and didn't say anything.
It's always good to maintain a sense of awe. After all, better safe than sorry.
When things are going well, no one will say anything, but once you lose the emperor's favor, everyone will push you down when you're down.
These are all pieces of evidence of disrespect, and Yan Qingqing would not leave such leverage for anyone.
Yan Qingqing looked at Eunuch Yue and replied, "These are the most basic etiquettes. When Eunuch Xiang came, he specifically instructed me on them."
Now that we are all prepared, we would like to trouble you, Your Excellency, to announce the imperial decree.
Upon hearing that it was his master who had specifically instructed him, Eunuch Yue's smile grew even brighter.
