Chapter 126
The emergence of double skin milk has amazed the taste buds of countless customers. But Xiao Yue couldn't see...
The emergence of double skin milk has amazed the taste buds of countless customers.
However, Xiao Yue couldn't see it. As soon as she packed the food, Fu Xunzhou came to the store and helped her carry the lunch box.
Afterwards, the two left together and headed for the restaurant on South Street.
These days, Xiao Yue continued to run back and forth as usual, and Fu Xunzhou, as he had said that day, became the coachman of the carriage.
Xiao Yue opened the curtain in front of the car, looked at the broad back and thought to himself: Quite competent.
Until the carriage stopped, Fu Xunzhou turned around and noticed her gaze: "What's wrong?"
"It's okay." Xiao Yue said, and was the first to get off the carriage from the back door.
The two men came to the back door of the restaurant carrying lunch boxes.
Compared to the previous few days, there were some changes inside the restaurant, and people were no longer as surprised as they were at the beginning about the two people coming in and out together.
Uncle Meng glanced at Ah Cheng, whose eyes followed Xiao Yue, and laughed: "Come on, are you still watching?"
“No, no.”
Ah Cheng scratched his head, recalling the scene when he first met the man, and thought: Perhaps only this kind of man can catch the eye of Madam Xiao.
While everyone was eating, Xiao Yue took Fu Xunzhou for a walk.
Now there is a change every day. The place that was empty yesterday will be filled with something new today.
Fu Xunzhou asked: "After this place is completed, will Yueting Self-help Association move here?"
"No." Xiao Yue said as he looked at it: "Yue Ting is still on her own over there. As for this side..."
She snorted.
Fu Xunzhou didn't know why, but he particularly liked seeing her like this. Knowing that she wanted to remain mysterious, he didn't ask any more questions and instead asked, "Then the manpower required should be quite a lot, right?"
"Well..." Xiao Yue looked at him with a half-smile: "Of course, Xiao Ran has been asking about this for me for several days, and I don't know when there will be any results."
Fu Xunzhou's eyes shifted: "It should be soon."
"Yeah?"
"Um."
Xiao Yue snorted.
However, things turned out just as Fu Xunzhou said. When the two returned to Yueting Self-service Home together, they learned the follow-up of the incident from Lu Ran.
"I asked someone and found many sisters of the same age. We can come to the store together later."
Xiao Yue nodded, thinking casually, he didn't say how many people he wanted, only that the more the better.
many?
How many can there be?
Half an hour later, Xiao Yue, who was busy in the kitchen, heard Lu Ran calling her, wiped her hands and walked out.
Then she watched a group of women file in through the back door one after another.
Xiao Yue was stunned and realized that something was wrong.
After a moment, she looked at the women who were spontaneously lined up in three rows, quietly not talking but with curious expressions, and fell into deep thought.
It’s confirmed, it’s really wrong.
Aren’t there too many people? !
Xiao Yue originally thought that it would be good to have ten, and then he would train them in the backyard for a few days to see how the situation went.
The result now is... three rows, eight columns, a total of twenty-four people!
These twenty-four people are all well-proportioned in body shape and height, or rather, more than that, there are similarities in certain aspects, such as expressions and movements.
Their faces were full of curiosity about this place, and there was also a hint of scrutiny and movement on their faces. It was clear that everyone's posture was different, but if anything happened, they would definitely be able to react in time.
Xiao Yue recalled that when Lu Ran, Sun Wen, Hua Jinjin and Hua Cancan arrived, she was so surprised that she didn't notice this at all.
Now that I think about it, I am indeed the same as these people.
Xiao Yue felt that it could be summed up in one sentence: trained and professional.
She wiped her face, glanced at Fu Xunzhou who was standing in the corner, and looked away and walked forward before he looked over.
Now that we have "recruited" the people, the next step is naturally to follow the previously agreed process.
"I think everyone has heard that I'm recruiting people. If you can join Yueting Self-help, I can guarantee that each person will receive a basic monthly salary of thirty taels of silver, at least five days off per month, and will not be treated unfairly in terms of food..."
Xiao Yue now simply regarded this group of women as people that Yueting Self-help would soon recruit.
Therefore, she first talked about the treatment she could give, especially the monthly salary, which made these women open their eyes wide.
Little do people know that this has already been increased once, and it is still the lowest amount one can receive at present.
Xiao Yue changed the subject and said, "But the people I am recruiting now are for future preparations. There may be transfers at any time, so you need to undergo half a month of training and assessment in all aspects... especially the most basic cooking skills."
Including in the future, Yueting will recruit people independently, but they will not be able to take up the position immediately. They will all need half a month of training - if they are capable, they will pass, and if they are not, they will be eliminated.
"Of course." Xiao Yue looked at the women in front of him and chuckled, "After all, it took you half a month. From now on, whether you pass or not, Yueting Zizhu will subsidize each of you five taels of silver."
As soon as these words were spoken, not only were there exclamations from the backyard, but even Fu Xunzhou and Fang Sanhong looked over.
Xiao Yue waited quietly.
Sure enough, a mature-looking woman in the crowd was the first to say, "I can accept this training and assessment."
"So can I!"
"This is too good to be true, who wouldn't want to continue?"
“Oh my god…”
As soon as one person started talking, the rest of the people started whispering to each other, no longer as calm as when they first arrived.
After all, no one told them that the treatment was so good!
Xiao Yue's expression remained unchanged: "It seems that no one wants to quit, so the training will start from tomorrow. The gathering time is 15:30. I will make detailed arrangements then."
The main reason was that she didn’t expect so many people, and she had originally planned to conduct the training and assessment in this backyard.
But there is not enough space now, so we have to find another place. After much thought, the only suitable place is the restaurant on South Street.
Xiao Yue sighed, not for any other reason, but because he was just one step slower.
The kitchen of South Street Restaurant was just demolished today and the stove and cabinets were all moved out. Otherwise, it could have been kept and there would have been time for renovation in the last few days.
In this case, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble Uncle Meng and the others...
"I have to go over there." After dismissing the group of women, Xiao Yue said this to everyone before dinner.
Fang Sanhong knew what she wanted to do and wanted to drive the carriage to go with her, but before she could say anything, she heard -
"Let's go." Fu Xunzhou walked up to Xiao Yue and said naturally, "We should be able to make it in time for dinner after a round trip."
"Should." Xiao Yue nodded and waved to Fang Sanhong without realizing it.
Fang Sanhong frowned and took a step forward, then retracted his foot.
Fortunately I didn’t say it, otherwise I would have been called a “clown” by Xiao.
Although Fang Sanhong didn't quite understand the exact meaning, who made this guy say such weird words all the time?
The sun is setting.
Xiao Yue arrived at the restaurant on South Street before the old craftsmen got off work and quickly stated his request.
Uncle Meng scratched his head: "...Build a row of trading stoves with 24 pots?"
"Yes, that's fine." Xiao Yue said apologetically, "I won't let Uncle Meng and the others work in vain. I'll come over tomorrow to settle tonight's money. How about one hundred and fifty taels?"
Uncle Meng's small eyes immediately widened, revealing his black pupils.
There were sounds of people gasping for breath all around, and one of his old friends was eager to agree on his behalf.
One hundred and fifty taels? ! !
This is nearly half of the money for this project, not to mention just building a row of simple stoves in the backyard!
Feeling everyone's gaze, Uncle Meng came back to his senses and clenched his fist and said, "Madam Xiao, you are too polite. Don't worry, I will make sure it is finished before you come over tomorrow!"
"That's great, thank you all!"
Xiao Yue naturally knew that this kind of stove was simple, and it was even easier for this group of experienced old craftsmen to make it.
She felt bad for delaying work.
Fortunately, no one has a grudge against money. If you have money, everything will be in place.
After saying that, Xiao Yue said goodbye to Uncle Meng and walked back with Fu Xunzhou.
It's a little dark. This is the first time I'm here so late.
The carriage stopped a little ahead and there was no one around. Xiao Yue and Fu Xunzhou got on the carriage and headed out of the alley.
However, after traveling for a short distance, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Because the speed was not fast at the beginning, Xiao Yue's balance was unstable and he looked forward in confusion.
"What's wrong?"
Before Fu Xunzhou could answer, several figures appeared on both sides in front of him. They looked strong and fierce, tall and strong. They stood in the middle of the road like a wall, blocking their way.
Xiao Yue's heart skipped a beat, remembering that Uncle Meng said a few days ago that there was a thief on South Street.
Could it be that I ran into him?
But at this moment, Xiao Yue’s first thought was - is this an "individual"? Aren’t they in a group?
Just as he was thinking about it, Xiao Yue heard a sneer coming from Fu Xunzhou.
She looked back and could only see his profile from this direction.
There was not much expression on Fu Xunzhou's face. His dark brown eyes could not reveal their original color because they were in the dark, but it was enough to see the disdain and danger beneath his black eyelashes.
The slight nervousness in Xiao Yue's heart miraculously calmed down.
"Hand over all the money you have!" Just at this moment, the person blocking the way in front spoke. He was a relatively thin man with a scar on his face.
Fu Xunzhou glared at him and said in a bland tone: "I have never seen anyone who dares to rob so blatantly."
After he said this, Xiao Yue realized that this group of people were a little too arrogant.
After all, this is inside Liuyun City, not some mountain road outside the city, and the way these people are dressed...
Xiao Yue quietly moved behind Fu Xunzhou and found that his broad back could cover her. She whispered, "You can fight..."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Scarface drew out his knife and said, "Either give me money or I'll live!"
He rushed forward directly, and the strong men behind him twisted their wrists and stepped forward with a sneer.
Who knows——
"ah!"
As soon as the scarred man approached, Fu Xunzhou kicked him out with such force that he flew far away.
The group of strong men were dumbfounded.
Xiao Yue only heard Fu Xunzhou let out a "huh" and then he tiptoed and flew over directly from here.
The sound of my robe brushing against the wind is still ringing in my ears.
Xiao Yue was a little dazed. When he came to his senses, all he could hear were the wailing on the ground and the figure of Fu Xunzhou walking back.
"What did you want to ask just now?"
"…Nothing, I just want to praise you for your calmness in the face of danger."
