Currently, after the land in Qingshan was cleared and measured, it totals 615 mu (approximately 42.7 hectares).
She divided it into three areas.
The largest area, more than 300 acres, is entirely used for planting fruit trees.
One hundred acres of land were used to build a breeding farm.
The remaining 200 mu will be used to grow other vegetables and fruits.
She transformed the green hills into a terraced field pattern, resembling an inverted spiral mountain.
The fruit tree area is divided into three sections.
They are located at the top, middle, and bottom, respectively.
The pattern is roughly as follows: several circles of fruit trees at the foot of the mountain, then several circles of livestock farms, then several circles of fruit trees, then several circles of vegetables and fruits, and then several more circles of fruit trees.
The fruit trees that grow like this can completely cover the entire mountain.
To avoid the situation where half of the land is lush and green while the other half is bare.
The livestock farm and vegetable and fruit farm are placed in the middle section, which also makes it convenient for free-range grazing and irrigation.
She selected a total of thirty kinds of fruit trees.
Since people accept the unusual fruit tree, the King Melon, so well, there's no need to hide other fruit trees that haven't appeared before.
She chose all the fruits she liked to eat.
Plant one type of plant in a circle, and it will be a spectacular sight when they bloom and bear fruit next year.
She has also added many new varieties of vegetables.
However, we'll have to wait until next year to start planting vegetables; for now, we can only fertilize the fields.
Starting next year, Liu Dashan will also need to be stationed in Qingshan permanently.
He's now considered a semi-professional; he has to oversee the fruits and vegetables.
For the vegetable garden in the village, just choose a long-term worker who has been farming with him for a year to take over.
As for the breeding farm, she doesn't plan to do anything too exotic.
Plants and animals are fundamentally different.
The chickens, ducks, and pigeons are still the same.
Dig a few more ponds to raise some aquatic products.
It just so happened that the lake was overflowing with aquatic products, so she picked out some ordinary-looking fish, shrimp and crab seedlings to raise.
Just add one-third of the supernatural water to the water.
So now, in addition to planting fruit trees, people are also building houses, fences, and digging ponds on the mountain.
Yun Zhiyi only took a quick look to make sure there was no problem, and then left it to its own devices.
She has something new to do now.
"You made all of these yourself, stitch by stitch?"
Two long gowns were laid out on the table at this moment.
One is a women's rushan (a type of traditional Chinese dress), and the other is a men's round-neck long gown.
What she asked Li Chengzhi to bring back was brocade, which itself had intricate patterns.
She suggested making clothes and embroidering some patterns, which would also be one of the challenges.
Because people usually make clothes directly from brocade, and rarely embroider on it.
Only those with superb embroidery skills, exceptional aesthetic sense, and keen eye would dare to place their embroidery on it.
Otherwise, mixing it with the original pattern of the brocade will not only destroy the original beauty, but also make it look messy and cluttered.
So even if Li Erhua handed in two sets of clothes without embroidery, she wouldn't say anything.
As long as the clothes have a good cut and style, they can pass the test.
She didn't expect that she would just randomly pick a top-notch costume maker.
Of course, Li Erhua is indeed not yet at that level.
However, she has a lot of ideas, a great sense of color, and her embroidery skills are also very skillful.
There weren't many embroidered patterns on the clothes, just on the cuffs, collar, shoulders, and hem.
The patterns are also very simple: peony patterns for women and auspicious cloud patterns for men.
The overall color scheme is the same, but the former, with its pink and white embellishments on the flowers, appears playful, delicate, and lively.
The man appeared composed and elegant.
It can be said that although the craftsmanship of these embroideries is not the best, it is still of a good standard and serves as the finishing touch.
Next, let's look at the styles.
Although they are all common styles, the other party has clearly made some changes.
The woman's sleeves and hem were lined with faux ruffles, as was the collar.
When paired with embroidery, it further accentuates its delicate and graceful beauty.
The man only slightly cinched his waist, so he didn't appear so stiff.
The changes are minor, but they are still noticeable.
You can tell Li Erhua's personality and abilities just from her two outfits.
No wonder she's the kind of girl who would chase after someone to demand justice for her.
They are bold, have ideas, and dare to present them.
The embroidery and garment-making techniques are somewhat rough, but these can be corrected later.
Her talent in this area is surprisingly promising.
Moreover, you could tell from her eyes that she really liked the job.
Passion is the best source of inspiration.
I must say, Yun Zhiyi was quite pleasantly surprised.
She tested more than just Li Erhua, but Li Erhua was the one she was most satisfied with.
Li Erhua stood to the side, her body stiff, her fingers twisted together, barely daring to breathe.
My heart has been racing ever since I arrived, and I'm even more nervous now that I've met my employer and started to see the results.
She made some changes to this work.
These changes were absolutely unacceptable in the embroidery workshop in the past.
People are used to what they have and don't want the risks that change might bring.
She originally intended to follow the rules and regulations.
But just before starting to sew, he tore up all the manuscript paper.
She felt that since she was going to work for her employer, she should present her most authentic self.
Hiding things might help you get a job.
But I always felt that it was a deception and betrayal of my employer.
So in the end, I decided to do it according to my own true thoughts.
It would be best if I could stay; if not, I'll look for other opportunities later.
Upon hearing her employer's question, she swallowed hard and composed herself.
"Yes, it wasn't done by anyone else."
Yun Zhiyi nodded and then looked at the other matching pants and belts.
After a short while, she put down her things and turned to look at Li Erhua.
Li Erhua's heart was pounding, and she didn't dare to look up, unsure if her employer was satisfied. She was extremely flustered.
Have you ever made clothes before, besides for your family?
Li Erhua quickly replied, "I used to work at the embroidery workshop, but I was always an assistant. Back then, I was mainly responsible for embroidery."
"I heard you've been working in the embroidery workshop for several years. Did you have a mentor?"
“I did it for three years. In the early years, I learned some needlework from Aunt Zhou, and then practiced on my own. When I was selling embroidery, I was noticed by the embroidery workshop and became an apprentice. I learned it by secretly watching other embroiderers…”
By the end, she had almost buried her head in her chest.
Stealing someone's skills is never a respectable or honorable thing to do, and it might even make your employer dislike you.
But she was unwilling to deceive her employer.
Yun Zhiyi nodded. "So, you didn't have a proper teacher to guide you, and you were all self-taught?"
Li Erhua stammered, "Yes, you could say that."
"Alright, tomorrow you will go to Yunshu Clothing Store and work as an assistant to Youniang for the time being. I will have her teach you embroidery. How much you learn depends on yourself. When you go tomorrow, she will tell you about the salary and specific work."
Li Erhua froze, looking up at her in astonishment.
Then, realizing what was happening, her cheeks twitched slightly, and an overwhelming sense of surprise and excitement spread across her face.
"Master Dong, I...I...can I?"
Yun Zhiyi found it somewhat amusing to see her so excited that she was rambling on and on.
"Your idea is good, and your bold and innovative spirit deserves praise. However, there are some flaws in your skills, so you need to work hard in the future. You have a three-month probationary period, and the final result depends on yourself."
