Xia Quan and Zhang were stunned the whole time.

Is this Xia Chuntao their daughter? That cowardly girl who's afraid to talk to people?

Looking at the frightened eyes of the people around her, Xia Chuntao twitched the corner of her mouth. Was she too frightened?

Xuan Er watched it with great interest on the carriage, only a handful of melon seeds were missing.

I'm afraid these people don't know Madam Xia's true fighting power. Are they stupid now? Should!

But having said that, Mrs. Xia ends the battle so quickly every time, which makes her look superfluous!

Xia Chuntao felt that it was a mistake to go back to her parents' home this time. Even if she didn't have a reputation as a foxy girl, she still had a reputation for being violent and fierce. After all, it wasn't a good reputation. I wonder if it could be saved?

"Fellow folks, this was my hometown, and you are my mother-in-law. If you want to work in my workshop, I welcome you. As long as you are down-to-earth and willing to work, work quickly, and don't mess around, I welcome you."

The crowd finally came to life because of these words.

Someone tried in a low voice: "Ms. Xia, what you said...is it true?"

Xia Chuntao smiled and said, "Of course, I keep my word. Those who want to go, please ask your chief to be your guarantor. I will go and talk to the chief later."

Someone asked: "Ms. Xia, are our wages the same as those in your village?"

"Equal pay for equal work, of course."

The crowd began to become active, and someone asked again: "Ms. Xia, how much can you get for a day's work?"

"The wages will naturally vary depending on the job, but it will definitely be better than if you travel far away to work."

People in the crowd kept asking questions, and Xia Chuntao also picked some questions and answered them cheerfully.

Finally, an old man interrupted everyone, "Chun Tao is back to see her parents. What are you guys doing here?"

Everyone turned around and saw Li Chang approaching, so they all gave way.

"Chuntao has already said that we are her natal family. Is this how you treat your natal family?"

The chief looked at the frightened woman, frowned and scolded, "Daughter-in-law of Changshan, why are you everywhere? Go home quickly, don't embarrass yourself here!"

The woman was quite aggrieved. Didn't she just say a few words casually? How could she be like Xia Chuntao? She was scared to death as if she was about to beheaded!

"Everyone, go back. Let's discuss the matter of recruiting workers for Chuntao Workshop. Anyway, it will be after the New Year. Let's go back and wait."

After a few words, the onlookers quickly dispersed.

Xia Chuntao invited the manager: "Since the manager is here, come in together. I will talk to you about recruiting workers."

Xia Chuntao's parents looked at a loss when they saw the mayor coming in behind them.

"Mom, help the mayor get a cup of hot water."

"Oh, oh, okay, I'll go right away." Mrs. Zhang turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

Xia Quan didn't know whether he should sit or stand. The chief had never entered his home.

"Dad, please sit down and listen."

"Hey." Xia Quan responded and finished.

"Chuntao, don't hide in front of me. If you don't need anyone, don't force it."

Xia Chuntao smiled and said to the director:

"Uncle Li, I won't hide it from you. I am actually very short of people. Next spring, I will build a workshop near Rongcheng. The location has been confirmed and the scale will be larger than the current one. In addition to local workers, there are also We have to send some people from the workshop here. We need to stay there permanently, so it is best to go with the whole family. If you are a young man, you can also take your family over after you have settled in. Spring workshop and workers' houses Construction will start at the same time and be completed in a month at most.”

"In addition, my shop in the county also needs helpers, but the requirements will be higher."

"Uncle Li Chang can introduce any suitable candidates to me."

Xia Chuntao introduced the workshop and shop to the manager, and explained in detail the treatment of employees and the requirements for employees.

The director nodded frequently.

Xia Quan was confused as he listened. The more he listened, the less he could believe that this person talking so eloquently was his daughter!

"When Uncle Li chooses someone, he can send them there in person and take a look at my workshop."

"Okay, okay!" the chief replied cheerfully.

"As for my parents, I would also like to ask my eldest uncle to take care of me more. You also know that I am a widow and it is not easy for me to run to my parents' house often."

"Don't worry about that," the chief raised his head, looked at the silly Xia Quan, and said, "Daquan, you have a good daughter!"

Xia Quan only nodded numbly.

After discussing the matter, Xia Chuntao said goodbye to Xia Quan and Zhang directly, put away the New Year gifts, got into the carriage and drove away.

The headmaster looked at the carriage going away and shook his head. Xia Quan and his wife were so confused that they would not hesitate to have such a wonderful daughter!

Xia Quan and Zhang didn't slowly recover until there was no one left at home.

The couple looked at each other for a while, but Xia Quan spoke first.

"Tell me, was that person just now Chuntao?"

"right."

"Why has she changed so much? She was not like this before."

"It's not good! I even took a sneak peek at her wrist, and the mole is still there."

"I see that the mayor is smiling when talking to her. Is she so awesome?"

Xia Quan sighed, "She is just a girl, no matter how powerful she is, what's the use? It would be great if she were a son!"

The couple fell into the sorrow of not having a son again.

……

The 29th day of the twelfth lunar month is the redemption day for the "points return gift", and preparations for "Gathering Good Things" begin an hour in advance.

Half an hour before the opening, a long queue formed outside the door of "Juhaowu". Seeing this situation, Xia Chuntao asked Chunsheng to open the door and welcome the first wave of guests today.

Xia Chuntao and Liu Quan checked the points, Zhao Chunsheng and Yang Zhi were responsible for distributing gifts and redeeming point products, and the two sisters-in-law were responsible for helping. Xia Chuntao pulled over the second brother Wang, the coachman, and asked him to maintain order and not cause chaos.

From dawn in the morning, I have been busy until it is dark in the evening, and the "points return gift" for this day is all over.

Our throats are broken from shouting, our mouths are dry, our stomachs are so hungry that we can’t feel anything, and everyone is exhausted, but this is not over yet, because we have to settle the accounts. Tomorrow is thirty, and "Juhaowu" will close the store and rest until the end of the day. It only opened on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Xia Chuntao had already ordered a table of sumptuous dishes next door. Everyone ate together and came back to continue inventorying the warehouse.

Everyone is starving. Everything tastes delicious, let alone a table full of good meat and vegetables.

The young men all ate deliciously, but the two sisters-in-law were embarrassed to eat.

Xia Chuntao gave each of her two sisters-in-law a large crispy chicken drumstick, and said with a smile: "Sisters-in-law, you're welcome. We all worked very hard today, and we deserve to eat something good. Besides, isn't this the Chinese New Year? Just treat it like me. Let’s have a New Year’s Eve dinner with everyone in advance. We can order whatever we want to eat. If it’s not enough, we’ll order more, but if there’s more than a little, we can’t drink it.”

The young men laughed, and the two sisters-in-law felt relieved and started eating.
