MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 336 Cut first and play later
The next day.
Qin Yao arrived at the factory early and wrote a simple construction plan for the new production line while the workers had not yet started work.
After the stewards arranged today's production tasks, they called everyone to the hut for a brief meeting to discuss the production of stationery gift boxes.
Once is born, the second is familiar. With previous experience in building new factories, managers such as Liu Carpenter, Yun Niang, Liu Qi, and Liu Zhong have adapted to Qin Yao's style and rhythm. The meeting finalized their respective tasks in less than half an hour.
Everything that could be arranged was arranged. Qin Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief. She did not eat in the canteen with the others at noon and went home to find Awang to start a small stove.
After lunch, I took a short rest and then got up and started packing my luggage.
A set of clothes should be prepared for change, and weapons such as bows, arrows, slingshots and daggers should be carried with you. It should rain in a few days. You should bring a hat and a raincoat just in case. Finally, add a thin quilt in case you accidentally sleep in the wild. Cover it.
By the way, the most important thing is money, which you must bring with you.
All the things to be taken were placed on the table. Qin Yao found a piece of oilcloth alone, packed these things into a net bag woven with hemp rope, and hung them on the horse.
Qin Yao had just finished packing, and Liu Ji’s master and apprentice also drove their carriage back from Xiahe Village.
Early this morning, Gong Liangliao and Qi Xianguan were tricked out by Liu Ji. They followed him to Xiahe Village to order bricks and tiles. They also wandered there in the name of Taqiu. They didn't return until mid-afternoon. .
The three masters and apprentices were in high spirits and got off the carriage. Liu Ji was carrying Gong Liangxiao on his back, Qi Xianguan was holding his husband's quilt, and Shi was carrying the wheelchair. They were still talking excitedly about the water mill they had just seen in Xiahe Village. It feels like the Mo family's mechanism technique.
Leng Buding saw Qin Yao sitting at the door of the hall, eating fried peanuts and drinking tea, looking leisurely. Master and disciples were all surprised.
Because in the past, Qin Yao was always busy from morning to night, so busy that no one could be seen. Seeing her for the first time during the day was a bit unfamiliar.
Inexplicably, the master and disciples who were chatting and laughing just now fell silent immediately. Those who entered the house went into the house, and those who went up to the latrine went up to the latrine. Only Liu Ji was left standing in the courtyard.
"Madam, have you packed everything?" Liu Ji noticed that a pair of raincoats were missing on the wall of the hall, and he had nothing to say to try and ask.
Qin Yao nodded and asked Qi Xianguan, who was about to pass by him, "Do you want to eat peanuts?"
"Mrs. Xie, no need." Qi Xianguan politely refused, and went back to the children's room, intending to take a nap.
I secretly hope that the guest house will be ready soon, so that I can feel more at ease.
It was strange to say that even when Qin Yao was smiling, he felt an invisible pressure hanging over his head. He thought he was the only one who was like this, but when he asked Shitou and others, it was the same.
Gong Liangliao looks calm and composed, but in fact he doesn’t like being alone in a space with Qin Yao. He feels like he’s being scrutinized, which is weird.
Finally, the master and the apprentice concluded that the answer was all because of Liu Ji! This also caused them to be shrouded in Qin Yao's shadow with him!
Right, that is it! If Liu Ji had been tougher, they wouldn't have been like this!
Qin Yao shrugged and asked Liu Ji how big a house he planned to build and how many bricks and tiles he bought.
Liu Ji stayed up all night in the main room last night just to design his new study room. When Qin Yao asked about it, he turned out the drawings and showed them to her.
His control of the size was excellent. It was not larger than Qin Yao's room, but it was much more spacious than the original one. The location is next to the warehouse in the backyard, with windows on the east and west sides. It is adjacent to the warehouse to the north and Qin Yao's room to the south.
To make it easier to get in and out, he planned to open up his original small room and make a corridor so that he could walk directly to the front yard.
However, as a result, the movable area of the backyard is directly reduced by half.
Before Qin Yao could frown, Liu Ji, who knew that she and Dalang were still practicing martial arts in the backyard, immediately added:
"I plan to bulldoze all the wasteland outside our back door and enclose our vegetable plot. This way it will be orderly and tidy. Madam, you and Dalang will have a bigger place to practice martial arts."
Moreover, when there are visitors in the future, the carriages and horses will have a place to park, and they no longer need to be crowded on the flat dam in front of the gate.
Seeing that Qin Yao was quite satisfied, Liu Ji stretched out his fingers and rubbed his thumb and index finger, "That's the fee. It may have to go up a little bit, but two taels more will be enough!"
Qin Yao raised her hand and slapped the outstretched palm, "Liu Ji, have you learned how to chop first and then play?!"
He threatened in a low voice: "Do you think I won't dare to beat you when there are guests at home?"
Liu Ji covered his palms that immediately became red and swollen, hissed and breathed in the cold air, shook his head and coaxed:
"No, no, madam, you have misunderstood me. I am doing this for the good of our family. There are many people and the place is small. It is not easy to start work at once. Why not just do it together, madam, so as not to worry about it in the future."
As he said that, he saw that the coldness in Qin Yao's eyes had faded a little, and she said with a serious face: "I also see that Madam, you are working hard outside in the wind and sun, while I, a grown man, am sitting in the house eating and enjoying. Reading while drinking is really shameful.”
"Madam, if you have anything to do at home in the future, you can leave it to me. For example, if you need to run errands in the factory, if you need it, just give me your order. I don't want more. I'm just as interested as you guys. Just give me some.”
After saying that, he blinked his big eyes with a sincere expression. He didn’t say a word about money during the whole process, but he asked for money every time.
Had she not known his true nature, Qin Yao would have thought that he had become more diligent.
However, I didn’t expose it. It would be boring to tell the truth. Liu Ji, a shameless person, doesn’t know what embarrassment is.
Qin Yao remembered her promise to Carpenter Liu to reopen the literacy class. She rolled her eyes, looked at Liu Ji's expectant eyes, and asked tentatively:
“You have to renovate your old house, build a study room at home, and take care of your husband’s studies. How can you still find time to run errands in my factory?”
“Yes!” Liu Ji responded excitedly.
Hearing Qin Yao talk about the literacy class again, she became even more confident, saying: "The old house is almost finished, senior brother can just keep an eye on it. The study building at home is not that fast. We have just prepared the materials now, so we have to do whatever it takes." We won’t start construction until the old house is finished and my senior brother has moved there.”
"The rest, I get up an hour early every day to read, take care of the teacher during the day, and go to literacy classes in the evening after work at the factory. After class, I can still rush home for dinner, so I don't waste anything."
Qin Yao said to her heart that if you had been so diligent earlier, you wouldn't have been beaten, and nodded, "Okay, follow the old rules. The factory will provide the venue and teaching materials, and you will be responsible for teaching. You will pay the tuition by yourself. The pricing will still be the same as before. Five cents will be charged." One issue, one half month.”
Liu Ji almost couldn't help but laugh out loud. He tried to hold it back. Suddenly, his red and swollen hands no longer hurt. He fisted hard and said, "Yes!" (End of this chapter)
