There are still five days before Chu Ye marries the princess, the palace is already stepping up preparations, and the palace has also rewarded a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, silk and satin, and has made a decree to canonize Wang Xiangjun as the princess of Zunyi.

Yin Le deliberately avoided Chu Ye's wedding, so he took Shoutou to the tea garden to inspect the situation, the tea garden is not yet harvested, it is not busy, most of the tea workers went to drain and irrigate, to prevent drought in autumn,

The newly planted tea garden needs to be built with lime powder to prevent insects, but it is all daytime work, and it can be completed in only two or three hours a day.

Liu Qin managed in the tea garden, saw Yin Le coming, he took Yin Le to inspect around, Yin Le asked about the situation of the tea workers in the tea garden, and said: "We don't need so many people now, we work for two or three hours a day, and some are off-duty and pay wages, which is not conducive to the development of the enterprise, a monk carries water to drink, two monks carry water to drink, three monks have no water to drink, there are too many workers, no one wants to work, but they missed the effort, I suggest cutting some people,"

Liu Qin frowned and said: "But in this case, when it comes to the tea picking season, we are short of manpower, and now we are raising them, just to have enough manpower for the tea picking season,"

Yin Le said: "When the spring tea is picked, it is the first day of the fifth month, at that time, just after the spring ploughing, many people are empty, we can pay double the price to hire temporary workers, which is much more economical than raising them for 365 days a year,"

"Temporary worker," Liu Qin hadn't thought about this problem before, plus the old man has always been kind and very good to the employees, so he would rather spend a lot of money to raise the people in the tea garden than fire the lazy employees among them, Liu Qin listened to Yin Le's suggestion, felt that it was somewhat feasible, pondered for a while, and said: "The idea is good, but I suddenly fired so many people, I am afraid that they will make trouble,"

"Everything in the world, can't avoid a rational word, we really pay out to hire them to do things, but now the workload is light, only one-third of the people do it is enough, who wants to lose such a large amount of money every month, as long as they tell the staff, the employees will understand, if they want to make money, they can come to help when picking tea in the spring and Qingming tea, when the salary is doubled, the rest of the time, they can do other livelihoods, our Liu family's industry is not only a tea garden, but also a lot of coolies are needed on the wharf, If they want, they can go to earn coolie money, although it is hard, but the coolie money is twice as high as in the tea garden, how much to pay, how much to earn, in line with the rules of the market," she has learned before, the Liu family wholesaled tea to all over the place, constantly from the capital to all over the place, so there is a shortage of manpower in this aspect of handling, and even the high price can not be invited, the tea garden is in the suburbs, and the people in the suburbs are willing to do it, but the locals in the capital are not willing to do coolies, and would rather do some other easy but less expensive work, so relatively speaking, There is a serious shortage of manpower to carry coolies.

"Then I'll go back and ask my aunt's opinion on this matter," Liu Qin said,

Yin Le said lightly: "In the future, you will take care of all the affairs of the tea garden, and you will be responsible for me directly, you don't have to discuss with others, your aunt is not from the tea garden, since she chose to help in the store, let her continue to stay in the main store,"

Liu Qin was a little incredulous, and said in surprise: "You mean, in the future, I will manage the tea garden,"

"You think you can't do it," Yin Le asked rhetorically, the tea garden has always been taken care of by Liu Qin before, but there are also many old courtiers who are arrogant here, bullying the eldest grandson of this concubine, the old man is not worried about Liu Qin, so Liu Yanxiang and the old courtiers will put pressure on Liu Qin, he is here, in fact, he is the supervisor of the tea pickers, and many things cannot but be interfered with, I thought that Yin Le would take over the position of the old man, and his situation would be even more sad, but he didn't expect that he would let him manage the tea garden as soon as he came,

He hesitated for a moment and said, "It's better to ask grandpa for this matter first, I'm afraid that his old man will oppose it," he also knew that grandpa didn't pay much attention to him, and always felt that he was not clever enough,

Yin Le said: "The reason why I let you go in the tea garden is because you have a calm temperament, you stay in the store, I don't feel at ease, the shopping mall is like a battlefield, you don't have the qualifications for intrigue, so managing in the tea garden is the most suitable, uncle, you and Liu Ye are brothers, this is the Liu family's industry, you will always take over in the future, now is the time,"

Liu Qin was a little moved, he never thought that he could take over the Liu family's industry, his previous thought was that after his grandfather's death, he could get some family property, and then go out to work alone or put the silver in the money village to collect interest, he knew that it was not a material for doing business, and all of them stayed in the tea garden, in addition to the old man's arrangement, more because he liked tea and liked the atmosphere in the tea garden,

He looked at Yin Le and said gratefully, "Thank you, brother and sister,"

"It's all your own brothers, you will see the outside world when you say this, you go and gather the old courtiers of the tea garden, say I want to have a meeting, and announce this matter by the way," Yin Le said,

Liu Qin said: "Okay, I'll go immediately,"

Before Liu Qin left, he glanced at Shoutou, Shoutou looked at him with a smile, Liu Qin smiled and said, "Fifth brother, are you bored, take you to have a cup of tea, okay?"

Shoutou said happily: "I don't want to drink tea, I want to go up the mountain to see, it's boring to stay in my sister,"

"Okay," Liu Qin said with a smile, called a worker, and said, "Ah Quan, you take the fifth master up the mountain to take a look, remember, watch carefully, what kind of moth is there, only you ask,"

Ah Quan is an honest worker, has been working in the tea garden for more than ten years, the family is all pointing to his wages to live, just now I heard Yin Le say that a large number of employees will be fired, and I heard that going to work as a coolie can earn more silver, so I was a little moved, and now I heard Liu Qin call him to go up the mountain with Shou Shang, so he came up and asked Yin Le respectfully, "Owner, do you really want workers on the dock, how much silver a month,"

Yin Le snorted and said, "You ask the uncle about this, in the future, all the affairs of the tea garden will be handed over to the uncle to manage, and if you want to transfer the type of work, you can apply to the uncle,"

Ah Quan hurriedly bowed down and said, "Okay, thank you, owner,"

"Sister, then I'll go with Uncle Quan," Shoutou said happily,

"Go, Hongyan, you go up with you," Yin Le brought Hongyan over today, as for Moyan to protect Ye Rong, Luhe went to Xing'er's side, saying that it was to renew the past, but it has been reminiscing for several days.

And Yin Le carried out the manpower reform of the tea garden, and the court was also tense.

The emperor insisted on sending troops to recruit Beixian, but Chu Ye thought that Beixian had always been low-key, and had no intention of invading, as a subject country, he entered the palace every year on time, and even the princess of Beixian had married into the palace as a concubine, in this case, Zhao Guo had no reason to attack Beixian, so Chu Ye strongly opposed sending troops,

Now the treasury of Zhao State is empty, once the army is raised, the people's taxes will definitely increase, so if it continues, the people will be dissatisfied for a lifetime, the emperor will lose the people's heart, and he will be more inclined to Chu Ye, but Chu Ye is unwilling to exchange the war for the people's hearts, Zhao is the ancestors of the country, although Chu Ye is dissatisfied with the emperor, but he is not willing to joke about the country,

On the Jinluan Palace, the two parties continued to quote scriptures, telling the pros and cons of going to war and not going to war, when the saber was tense, Chu Kun brushed his sleeves away, he needed such an opportunity to make contributions, he thought that as long as he won Beixian, he could regain the hearts of the people, so although he was afraid of Chu Ye, he was not to be outdone, so that in the end, when he saw that most people were inclined to Chu Ye, he became angry and left angrily,
