Chapter 165: The Old and Weak Soldiers

Ignoring Dong Furu's mournful expression, Wei Ling took the others away as usual.

The voices of Mrs. Qian and Lu Qinqin's "quibble" were still faintly transmitted.

Chu Xujun watched them leave, turned to the crowd of onlookers around him and said, "Everyone has heard it, and these people can't believe what they say. disturbed everyone's interest in coming to Phoenix Tower. Today, in addition to a free glass of ice drink, each person can also get a free piece of straw paper on the second floor.

Shopkeeper Meng, give them a chip in order."

"Great......

"Thank you, owner."

Shopkeeper Meng: "Don't squeeze don't squeeze, come one by one, there will be one."

The martial arts hall and others who escorted the paper returned to the Phoenix Tower on time before noon, but the visitors were crowded, and it was too late for everyone to take turns to eat, so the original meeting had to be postponed first.

After 15 p.m., the retail paper on the second floor was sold out, and the flow of people began to ease a little.

After welcoming 30 large orders, the tea room peach nameless also hung up the sign of "sold out today, please be early tomorrow".

plus Uncle Wu and Shopkeeper Meng, they participated in the meeting together.

When everyone drank tea and took a sip of relief, Wei Ling also came back.

Chu Xujun looked up at him.

Wei Ling took the initiative to say, "It was indeed the three of them who instructed them, the time and place were all right, and they had no evidence to prove their bodies. The people from the Qian Mansion and the Royal Mansion took them back, and the rest were fined and imprisoned as usual."

Since they are noble women, they naturally have their own fate after they go back, and the top priority is that the Phoenix Building is seriously understaffed, so they should solve the internal worries first and then start the external troubles.

Xu Jingqing opened his mouth: "Shopkeeper Meng, the staff on the first floor is the most mixed, and a lot of manpower is needed inside and outside the cabinet, you see?"

Shopkeeper Meng got up, still restrained: "If you go back to Xu Dong's house, my husband didn't dare to speak casually before. Now the business is booming, if the owners have a request, the previous helpers in the restaurant are quite smart, and the net worth is also clean. The old man went to ask them, and they were willing to come back."

Chu Xujun: "Very good. The wages will be given to you for three months, and then according to your performance, and then according to your performance, the number of people can be five or ten."

Shopkeeper Meng saluted: "Xie Dongjia. My husband will do it."

Chu Xujun: "Uncle Wu, Mr. Tao said that your side is also short of manpower, and you are not familiar with the boundaries of Zhen'an County, do you have any ideas here?"

Uncle Wu said calmly: "The eldest lady of the Chu family, in terms of manpower, there were some people in our martial arts hall who were quite good before, and they went outside to find other errands, I can talk to them, are you willing to do it with me." As for the problem of road conditions, in fact, it is not only Zhen'an County, the paper is unique to Phoenix Building, and it is inevitable that it will be sold all over Zhongzhou in the future. I think we'll have to spare a dedicated person to make a map......

Wei Ling spoke: "Uncle Wu, Rong said a certain sentence, in terms of road conditions, I think there are corresponding manpower in the army. It's just that most of them ...... It's inconvenient."

The battlefield is ruthless, and it is the blessing of God who can come back with all the beard and tail, and there are also disabled people with missing arms and legs, deafness and eye injuries, and a little pension may not be enough to treat the disease. They served the country and the people, but they ended up with no one to take care of them and disliked by their families.

Wei Ling has been committed to solving the problem of the old, weak and disabled soldiers, but he is only relying on him, and he can't do it in the end.

Uncle Wu first praised: "Wonderful, there are scouts in the army, they are first-class good players, let them follow us as bodyguards, I wonder if they will feel wronged?"

Uncle Wu smiled honestly, and everyone praised this person for being able to speak and do things.

Wei Ling's expression was also relieved, he came to discuss this matter today, he didn't discuss it privately with Chu Xujun, because he didn't want to hurt the interests of the other co-owners, he looked at Chu Xujun and said, "Don't worry, what has been introduced is just a small problem, and you can't go into battle to kill the enemy, and you have all the strength, military discipline, and knowledge."

Chu Xujun said: "There is an orchard that is still empty, if you can find some people to help grow bamboo, take care of the housekeeper, and add some popularity, it is also very good."

Wei Ling nodded: "Yes, yes, I'll let people go first."

Bring a batch and have a look."

Hua Jin'er thought silently: "So, cousin, in fact, I also know some little girls who have good skills, but the family refuses to let them come out to be embroiderers......

Chu Xujun: "If the craftsmanship is really good, we can also let them live in an orchard. You think about it."

In this way, when there is an orchard, it is necessary to divide the front and back, and the place where the men and women live separately.

Hua Jin'er was very pleasantly surprised: "Okay, I'll do it seriously."

After a period of discussion, the first batch of emergency personnel and reserve manpower have been settled, Chu Xujun said: "People are always the most important, no matter how first they come, they must promote each other and make progress together. I am inexperienced, I am young, and you can also mention to me what I have not done well."

"My cousin is wise, and I admire him so much." Hua Jin'er was the first to praise her.

Xu Jingqing said: "I am a few years older than you, and I am not as far-sighted as you, so we should help each other."

Wu Cai: "Sister Xie Chu gave me the opportunity to travel everywhere. By the way, after the dean of Shanyue Academy returned, the two stewards were dismissed. The dean said he would come over soon and talk to you about the paper himself."

Chu Xujun nodded: "Okay, got it."

"Adjournment."

**********

After the meeting, Chu Xujun dragged Wei Ling to another southeast mountain villa, where tea and beets were grown, as well as a small amount of black-skinned sugar cane.

It was named "Milk Tea Villa".

As soon as Chu Xujun came, the steward of the villa greeted him: "Son-in-law, there is just a new tea today, and the taste is better."

"If you have sugar, you can make it?"

"Yes, according to the method that the son-in-law said, both sugar beets and sugar cane produce brown sugar. It's just that the sugar cane lives less."

"It's okay. Let's take a look at it first."

Chu Xujun invited Wei Ling into the house, and the two sat opposite each other and tasted tea.

The steward brought in a new pot of tea, Chu Xujun sniffed it, took out a handful, poured it into the clay pot, added hot water, washed the clay pot and clay cup for the first time, and poured a cup for the second time, and served it to Wei Ling.

Chu Xujun's tea art is actually average, but she is in the realm of the later world, whether it is entertaining guests or after meals, she is used to drinking tea.

Wei Ling took it and learned from Chu Xujun to smell it: "Fragrance."

What is fried here is green tea, Chu Xujun slowly took a sip, and finally had a sweet taste: "This is good, just follow this method, collect more tea to fry."

"Yes, son-in-law."

"Wheat, reward."

Mai Zi understood, took the person out, and closed the door.

Wei Ling hadn't yet tasted the taste of tea, but he felt that it was quite aftertaste, and he couldn't help but drink a few more sips.

Chu Xujun said, "Wei Ling, there will always be a shortage of people in the paper mill, do you still have someone to send over?"
