Originally, I wanted to take a hot bath and drink ginger chicken soup to catch a cold, but it turned out to be relying on XXOO to catch a cold halfway, don't you say it. After doing it, Zhu Zilong immediately felt that he was sweating all over, and after taking a good bath, the cold really got better.

The next day, because the goods processing room was located in the palace, it was set up separately from Li Sanniang's shop, also for the sake of insurance. Therefore, because he was worried about the lack of inventory, Zhu Zilong left 500 taels of silver for Li Sanniang, and then set a rule and regulations for recruitment and general management of the store.

That's it, go away.

And just when Zhu Zilong temporarily returned to the Wangfu processing room, Li Sanniang's shop. When everyone heard that the store was going to recruit again on the basis of the original dozens of female employees, and expand the scale of employees.

As soon as the news came out, a relative who lived not far from Li Sanniang, Li San quietly found a reason to meet Li Sanniang.

After being polite, Li San said: "Third sister, you recruit foreign workers this time, hire one person a month for fifteen taels of silver, and take care of three meals a day, which is a good shortage." The so-called fertile water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, so you might as well let me go to the elders of the lower ancestors, and let them find a few reliable relatives in the clan to help. What do you think? ”

Hearing this, Li Sanniang frowned, but finally nodded.

is also a member of the Li clan, although Li Sanniang did not receive much help from the elders of the clan before. However, Guangchong did not fall into the well when one of their own women's homes was in trouble, which can be regarded as a kind of affection.

From ancient times to the present, China has been a society that helps relatives but does not help them, and the laws of ancient Chinese dynasties are even more important than the law. Kissing and hiding each other is an unspoken rule that is more important than national law!

"Kiss the prime minister" comes from "The Analects of the Son" "The father is hidden for the son, and the son is hidden for the father, and he is in it".

Most of the Chinese dynasties ruled the world with filial piety, and to varying degrees, they inherited this idea. According to the principle of concealment between relatives, relatives should conceal their guilt from each other, and those who do not report and testify are not guilty.

In other words, if our modern relatives have broken the law, as a family member, we must help the police arrest them, otherwise we will be guilty of harboring crimes.

However, in the past. In any ancient Chinese period, it was the opposite. Your relatives and friends have broken the law, and the first thing you have to do is help them escape, or hide their whereabouts and offer help.

If there is an inquiry from the government, you have to cooperate with the tacit understanding of deliberately lying. Even if it is exposed afterwards, you are not guilty. This is kissing and hiding!

The relationship between relatives and clans is really so complicated to calculate, even greater than all national laws. So much so that when Li San proposed that he hoped to reserve a part of the recruitment quota for the children of the clan, and the elders would recommend some people to come over.

Even if Li Sanniang was a little unhappy in her heart, she couldn't object too much, so she finally agreed.

-

Li San's actions were very fast, and after only half a day, he was out of stock again in Li Sanniang's store, so he had to persuade the customers to quit and close early. It's on the head!

Following Li San was an elder in the Li clan, Li Desheng, who was known as the second grandfather because of his second ranking.

Li Desheng's family was not wealthy, so he walked into the courtyard of Li Sanniang's house with a cane. He was followed by a middle-aged man about forty years old, wearing a melon skin hat and a torn jacket full of patches, this person was a little related to Li Sanniang, she had to call the second uncle.

"Come, come, come, sit down, the second uncle and the second grandfather are here, just eat some meat together, and we will have a big dinner in the evening!" Li Sanniang hurriedly stepped forward to greet her.

has been doing business for a long time, and Sanniang has already practiced the skill of always showing a smile at any time in front of people, no matter what.

Seeing that Li Sanniang understood the taste so well, the second grandfather of the Li family smiled and sat on the main seat with a grin. Li Sanniang's second uncle, Li Si, rubbed his hands with a smile and sat down.

Li San, who was on the side, used chopsticks to cook, pointed to the meat in the pot and on the table and said: "This is fresh mutton, that's beef, here is pork, second grandfather, second uncle, don't be polite, eat!" Eat! This is the Sanniang family, which is so rich, how can you eat so much meat casually on weekdays? ”

Li San's words are indeed true, the elders of the clan are not necessarily rich, that refers to the qualifications that only the wealthy family has.

Most of the clans of ordinary people live their own small lives on weekdays, and the capital in the family is also average. Take the partial branch Li family to which Li Sanniang belongs, except that the patriarch's family is richer. The others are poor families, and there is very little meat at home on weekdays.

It's impossible, you can eat meat every day, let alone all kinds of meat, you can eat as much as you want, and eat like the New Year every day.

"Sanniang, I see that you have changed a lot these days, and you have a future!" After eating for half a time at a separate table, Li Desheng, the second grandfather of the Li family, found a topic and opened his mouth first.

It has always been a habit of the Chinese to say something at the dinner table.

Li Sanniang replied casually: "Second grandfather! What has changed for me? Why didn't I find out? It's just relying on nobles to eat! ”

Li Si didn't go around, and after swallowing a mouthful of mutton on the side, he said on the side: "Your business is so big, now the whole city is talking about your soap, saying that this thing is labor-saving and protective for washing clothes, and it can also be used for bathing, which is really a good thing." It is estimated that in a few days, the news will reach the ears of the officials! ”

Seeing that the matter was completely made public, Li Sanniang hurriedly replied with a smile: "This soap, you can inquire about it." I guess I can know it too. It was from the hand of King Gong - Zhao Ta, and it was said to be transported from Jiangnan. Therefore, if the official family knows, it is normal. It's his son after all! ”

Seeing that this topic stopped here, after a pause, Li Desheng said directly: "Sanniang, I came to your house today to say!" Now your goods are so in demand, and your store also says that you want to recruit people! Nowadays, many children in the family are idlers, if you want to recruit people, it is better to find a few people in the family to help you! The people in the family can't help much, but at least they won't do things that harm their own people, so you can rest assured, right? ”

"That's right, third sister, I'm still the same old saying. This time, you recruit foreign workers, hire a person for fifteen taels of silver a month, and take care of three meals a day, which is a good shortage. Look at this food, the so-called fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, what do you think? Li San's eyes on the side were hot and tight.

In fact, Li Sanniang had already said hello to Jin Shanfat, the housekeeper of the palace, and the other party also said that half of the quota could be reserved to recruit the Li family.

Therefore, things have come to this point at this time, and naturally Li Sanniang can only go with the flow.

Li Desheng saw that Li Sanniang agreed to come down, and blew his beard with satisfaction. After a pause, he directly pointed to Li Sanniang's second uncle Li Si and said, "The first person I recommend is your second uncle Li Si!" ”

Li Sanniang's gaze immediately turned to Li Si, thought about it, and nodded.

This Li Si is almost forty years old, and he has not yet married a wife and had children. Although he is a big generation, he has always been poor, but he has not heard of any bad habits in character. Who to help is not to help?

Li Si and others came over on errands, and the front and back yards were separated, with men living in one courtyard and women living in one courtyard. Men can still keep vigil, and when they are used as security, Ann is okay!
