Chapter 237: Playing with your own life?
After listening to this, He still felt a little sad. Isn't this just playing with his own life?
"Aunt, you may not know that the neighbor who heard the shouting yesterday and rushed to the Li family said that he saw Uncle Li outside the courtyard wall."
"ah?"
"Then why doesn't he go in? Even if Sister Li is not a good person, after all, a husband and wife should be bound by grace for a hundred days, right?" He asked.
"Hey, don't be fooled by Uncle Li's honest appearance. Before this, my family's head saw him getting close to the widow Wu at the entrance of the alley. But we only saw him that one time, so Uncle Li came back and told us about it, but we didn't take it seriously. I guess..."
Little Li's wife, Sun, did not say it explicitly, but He and others understood it.
So this...
Sun asked again: "After rescuing the man from the well, did anyone from the Li family come to visit?"
He shook his head.
"That's right. I guess people are still blaming us for meddling in their business. I heard that Li Quan went to chase Liu Ying that day, and then he came back and took all of their belongings to Liu's house. I'm afraid he won't be back." Sun continued.
After hearing this, He really didn't know what to say and could only sigh.
It's really hard to explain this kind of thing. No one can empathize with you unless it happens to you.
Xu Qing dreamed that He's face didn't look good, so he quickly changed the subject: "Sister-in-law, why are you here today..."
When Sun heard this, she smiled and said, "Little Li told me when he got home that you wanted him to take charge of things. We discussed it and wanted to ask when he can come to work, right?"
After hearing this, Xu Qingmeng immediately smiled with satisfaction.
"We can start working anytime. We just need someone to help us. However, we are now in the yard of the Zhou family next door. The place is still too small. If we want to be formal, we still need to rent a yard."
"Sister, don't worry about this. Master Gu has said that Little Li has found a place. If you think it's good, we can go and take a look now."
Xu Qingmeng and He were both very surprised.
After all, he just said it this morning. I think after Gu Yunyi said it, Little Leo ran out with his still-unhealed body.
Xu Qingmeng and He then followed Xiao Lizi and the other man and went to the yard.
As they walked, Sun said, "The yard is quite close, not too far away, but it's quite empty inside and hasn't been properly repaired. It's quite old, but the yard is still quite large."
They arrived after walking for a short while.
After passing the Fang family's yard and turning into the small path next to it, I saw a yard after walking a few steps.
It was indeed as Sun said, the yard was rather old, but the place was indeed large, and the yard was very spacious, but the rooms were still nice. There was also a large warehouse in the northeast corner that could be used to store things.
Because it is located inside, it is very quiet, which is quite good and meets the requirements of Xu Qingmeng's workshop.
Little Li said: "This was also a workshop before, but it didn't make food, it was for dyeing cloth, but later the business was not good, so it was closed and this place was left empty."
"This place has been cleaned up. The previous owner didn't plan to stay in the city anymore, so he wanted to sell this yard. It has only been vacant for a short time."
Xu Qingmeng was very satisfied. Little Leo was indeed reliable and never let her down.
She asked about the price and it was okay. It was much cheaper than the previous courtyard. Xu Qingmeng was also quite satisfied, so she decided to buy it.
Once the yard was decided, the rest became much easier.
Little Li was originally in this business, so he was naturally very familiar with it. The other party had been very generous before, and after Little Li's persuasion, he actually reduced the price for the Gu family by another two hundred taels.
He became even more friendly towards Little Leo.
After coming out of the government office, the former boss took the silver and left without looking back.
The workshop has been decided, so the newly bought servants will no longer have to squeeze into the servants' rooms of the Gu and Zhou families.
After returning, Xu Qingmeng asked them all to move in. The yard was very big, and there were many rooms. With so many people, there were still enough rooms for everyone.
Of course, there were not enough quilts and mattresses, so He went to buy a lot more, and the rest of the things were also prepared one by one.
Among these people, many have worked in wealthy families before, but they have never received such good treatment, so they all want to work hard.
Before Xu Qingmeng left, he held a small meeting with everyone.
"Everything has been prepared, including food, clothing, shelter, and charcoal. I will try my best to make everyone comfortable. If you have any needs, you can also tell the manager. I have no other requirements. Just this one thing, you can't do evil, sneak around, or play tricks. There is no need to say more about these. If you want to work in the workshop, I will definitely not keep anyone who doesn't know how to work."
"Also, if anyone is deceived by a few words from outsiders, the Gu family will never let him go. The Gu family never sells slaves. Once found, they will be beaten to death."
Although Xu Qingmeng usually looks weak, when she frowned and glanced at everyone, there was coldness in her eyes, and no one dared to underestimate this new boss.
He was listening at the side and felt a little trembling.
"Did you understand everything?"
"Understood."
"Speak louder, haven't you eaten?" Xu Qingmeng said with a frown.
"I understand!"
This time the voice was very loud.
Xu Qingmeng nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, I hope you can really listen to it and remember it firmly."
"Another point is that we are in the food business. These are things that are to be eaten, so they must be clean. It is necessary to clean up neatly every day. Also, the hygiene in this workshop must be kept clean. Only in this way can the food produced be guaranteed. Do you understand?"
Since Little Li had already agreed to be the manager, he was naturally there at the moment, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Boss, I will tell them about these and will definitely keep the workshop clean."
Xu Qingmeng nodded.
Of course, we spoke harshly, but we might as well say something encouraging. We cannot just punish people, we need to give rewards.
Coming from the modern era, he is well versed in the ways of holding meetings in these large companies, and knows how to give a sweet date in exchange for a slap in the face.
After the meeting, everyone started to pack up their things, and He wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Wow, she really didn't know that her Meng Niang had such a powerful side.
Previously, in the hot pot restaurant, because Xu Qingmeng was pregnant, most of the hard work was done by Gu Yunyi, so it was the first time that He had seen such a daughter-in-law.
