The people of the Gui family are not only happy about their own family affairs, but also happy that the house has accepted the second batch of girls and daughters-in-law in the village, including the daughter of the village chief's family. More and more people in the village followed Gui Yuxia, and Gui Yuxia's apprentices surged to more than thirty at once.

That's not all, when Gui Yuxia returned to the workshop the day after the wedding, the number of apprentices surged to more than sixty. Cui Xi said to Gui Yuxia: "Sister Yuxia, why did you come here today when you just got married?" ”

Gui Yuxia blushed and said, "Thank you sisters for giving me makeup." As my boss said, we are deeply favored by the county lord, and when the county lord is employing people now, it is better to return to the workshop in time. In addition, a few days ago, the county lord released a new news that we can let the families of those other craftsmen be apprentices to us, and we can also recommend our own brothers to be apprentices to those craftsmen. I'm going to pick up the new apprentice today, and by the way, I'm going to find a master for both brothers. ”

Gui Yuxia's marriage was originally the top priority for these embroidery girls who left the palace, but there were too many jobs in the workshop, and they couldn't leave, so they chose to stay in the workshop, but everyone asked someone to send Gui Yuxia a makeup gift. Most of them are private rooms they saved in the palace. Some are turquoise rings, some are silver hairpins, and some are jade bracelets, most of which are worth a lot of money. Gui Yuxia is very grateful, of course, when the sisters get married, she will also give ≡., she has really accumulated some small jewelry rewarded by the ladies in the palace, which will come in handy at that time. Therefore, although things are valuable, Gui Yuxia also accepted them calmly.

Originally, after getting married. According to the rules given by Wen Hui. At least three days off. However, Da Niu is a sincere person, and he has always thanked Chen Wenhui for his kindness, and he couldn't repay it, so he urged Gui Yuxia to go to work in the workshop. Gui Yuxia also thought about the long future, no more than when she was in the palace before, and now it is more important to repay the kindness of the county lord, and. Give more to the future of your family, and have a prosperous life in the future. So, early in the morning, I tied up my hair and went to the workshop.

Cui Xi listened to Gui Yuxia's words: "I also have brothers there who want to learn art, one is to learn blacksmithing, and the other is to learn carpenter. And the masons'. I also got thirty apprentices. Let's go and pick them out together, and bring them back later, just in time for these people to be able to make the clothes for the workshop while we teach. ”

Gui Yuxia nodded, and beckoned the remaining sisters to go to the place where the craftsmen gathered.

Each chose an apprentice. I brought it back to teach, and I also arranged for my brothers to learn the arts. Guida. Gui Erdu became one of the apprentice craftsmen, signed a contract with the government, and immediately received clothes, shoes and socks, and wages. But the two brothers were very happy.

Chen Wenhui was very surprised when she learned that every embroidery girl now brought fifty or sixty apprentices, and asked: "There are so many, can you teach good quality?" ”

Xia He said: "I was so worried too, so I went to see it." Fortunately, these embroidery girls are the top craftsmen in the palace, not only their own skills are superb, but they are also accustomed to taking small palace maids on weekdays, so they can be said to be experienced. As for their apprentices, they are of different ages. The youngest is twelve years old, and the oldest is in their thirties, especially the older daughter-in-law, who can already needlework, and even the best work in her own village or in the neighborhood. Now it's just a lack of advanced embroidery skills. If you learn from a clever master like this, you will naturally make rapid progress. Such apprentices, the masters teach and save effort. It is those who are young in their teens, because they are all children of poor families, and they have been learning needlework with their mothers since they were children, although they can't make clothes, but the stitches are very skilled, they are young, and they learn quickly, so Sister Yuxia They don't have to work hard at all to teach. I took a look, it's only been more than half a month, and the level of some embroiderers has reached the second-class level. It's just that there is no assessment yet, and it is still according to the salary of the general embroiderer. ”

Chen Wenhui thought it was a surprise.

Xia He said: "But, girl, we now have nearly 300 embroiderers who can go to Nanyang, do we use so much?" ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "Why can't I use it, I'm still too little." My plan was that when I went to Nanyang, I would not only develop agriculture and build cities, but also develop handicrafts and establish workshops. When will you become rich just by farming? I've invested so much, when will I be able to pay back? ”

Xia He laughed, she really couldn't figure out these big things. Anyway, it's good to have a girl plan. Chen Wenhui looked at Xia He's appearance and said: "You can't rely on me all the time, you also have to think independently, you see Sister Feiguang, Sister Yinhong, you have long been alone." and Qiu Bi and the four of them, now they can be on their own, you have to hurry up. However, you have made progress this time, unlike before, I only knew how to do it when I told it, and I knew that I used my brain, so I went to the workshop to see it. It's better to have more of that in the future. ”

As she was talking, Qiu Bi entered the door and said with a smile: "Girl, you got all the people around you out to work, Feiguang sisters left, how long have we been serving you, and you have been assigned to other places to do things all day long." There is no way, so let the jade belt, Xia He and the others come up, how long has it been? You're going to send them out again? After I think it's time for you to get dressed, manage your own jewelry, and comb your hair. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "What do you have to do with your own clothes?" I can do it myself, but I can't do hair problems, it's a big deal to comb braids all day long, I can do this. ”

Qiu Bi smiled and said: "The dignified daughter of the Chen family, she actually braids all day long, you are not afraid of other people's jokes, and those of us who are subordinates are still afraid of other people's jokes." ”

Qiu Bi has been following Wen Hui for the longest time, so when there are no outsiders, she talks to Chen Wenhui very casually.

As he was talking, Chen Wenhui's master Wu Lixia also entered the door and said, "You people, relying on the girl to love you, you have no sense of proportion." ”

Qiubi stuck out her tongue.

Chen Wenhui hurriedly let Wu Lixia into the room and sat down, saying, "Master, you can't control them, they all make me spoiled." Only Mama Zheng is here. ”

Wu Lixia smiled, Wu Lixia was originally a person without a temper, and she was just talking just now.

Chen Wenhui asked, "Qiu Bi, aren't you busy at this time?" Why do you still have time to stumble here? ”

Qiu Bi smiled and said, "Oh, the girl still knows that I should be busy?" I understand, every time the girl has an idea, it is given to us, our legs are thin, and the girl is still leisurely. ”

As soon as Qiu Bi said this, Chen Wenhui remembered that it was really, she seemed to like to be a hands-off shopkeeper, and every time she put things out and handed them over to these capable helpers to do.

Speaking of this helper, Chen Wenhui remembered one of her right-hand man, Wan Shuhui, who is still working as a financial officer in Shanghai. His shares have been returned to the emperor, is it time for Wan Shuhui to retire, it is better for this good talent to follow him to Nanyang. In this way, she can also have better room for development, and she must act a lot smoothly if she gets such a big help.

Just thinking about it, Qiu Bi said: "Hey, girl, come back to your senses, where have you gotten to the fugue again, don't have any ideas, we can't stand the toss now, there are too many things, we have to be tired to death." I've got you up for a while. ”

Chen Wenhui was a little embarrassed. My iQue love problem was brought about by my previous life.

Chen Wenhui asked: "Okay, I know that you are hard, and when you get married in the future, I will give you a big reward, okay." Tell me, what's the matter? ”

Qiu Bi blushed and said: "I have never seen a girl like this, and she puts the word marriage on her lips every day." Okay, I'll cut it short. The eldest young master has already arrived in those three counties and has begun to organize the families rewarded by the emperor to move to our side. Presumably, the first group of people will start their journey the day after tomorrow. The first batch of carriages, doctors, grain, meat, cooks, and clothes needed along the way has been put in place. I just want to ask, aren't we going to leave before these people? When are we going to go, I'll tell the boat man. ”

Chen Wenhui groaned and said, "Can't we finish it all at once?" ”

Qiu Bi said: "You can't go all at once. Although there were a lot of ships in the past. These ships all traveled from the capital to Shanghai along the canal. But I didn't expect that there would be so many people in the capital to take away. The people recruited by the eldest young master in Jiangnan have all gone to Shanghai City along the way. We gathered craftsmen and their families in the capital, with tens of thousands of them, and captives, which was almost 30,000. The previous one could only accommodate 10,000 people. ”

Chen Wenhui hadn't spoken yet, Wu Lixia said, "I'm also here for this matter." I asked Jian Da to recruit the guards who know martial arts, and I have already recruited about four or five thousand people, will this part of the people go first or in batches? ”

Chen Wenhui said: "I have already thought about this, and our guards will still leave in batches, so that they can also escort those who are migrating." As for the 30,000 people Qiu Bi said, let's leave in batches. Qiubi, you still have to contact the boat company more. It is still safe and convenient to take the waterway. The shipping volume is also a bit larger. The cost is also a little smaller. Can our money still hold up? ”

Qiubi said: "There is no problem in supporting this, we still have banks." But it won't work for a long time, didn't the girl say, only 50,000 of these people are ours? The rest are all the black family, the house, and those families? The money of the Hei family has already arrived, and the lady in the house gave it early in the morning. But when will those families give? ”

Chen Wenhui remembered such a reminder and said, "Yes, why didn't they come to me to buy people?" (To be continued......)
