Traveling through ancient times

Gu Dalian had a very awkward meal!

With beauty in front of him, he felt that he could eat more because of her beauty, and then he glared at Qin Mo!

Qin Mo just thought this girl was cute and ate half a bowl of rice more than usual!

The space could also hear the noise outside when everyone came in. Qin Mo reluctantly left the space after hearing someone enter the room!

"What a monster! Beauty can lead people astray!"

Gu Dalian muttered to herself while patting her red face! ...

In the blink of an eye, it’s March!

The grass is lush and the warblers are flying, the trees are full of peach and apricot blossoms, and the flowers are in full bloom!

On this day, in front of Shannan Academy, several scholars surrounded Gu Wenzhi!

"Brother Gu, tomorrow is a day off. We have been busy preparing for the exams these days. It's very tiring! How about we go on a picnic? It will be a good way to relax and unwind. What do you think?"

Everyone agreed to Li Shaohua's proposal!

All five of them passed the county exam and were close to each other on a daily basis, so now they appreciate each other even more!

"Where are we going to play?"

"I heard that Cuiyu Village where Brother Gu is is doing very well now!"

"The day before yesterday, my cousin went to my grandmother's house to play. After returning, she praised the place highly, saying that it was clean and the scenery was beautiful!"

"She doesn't easily say good words, but if she can, it must be right!"

Pu Qing said this, his eyes full of longing!

"Okay, okay, in that case, let's meet at the city gate tomorrow morning and go to Cuiyu Village together!"

After the discussion, everyone went home to prepare!

Gu Wenzhi returned home and saw that his eldest sister was not there. He didn't know whether she had returned to the village!

After dinner, he returned to his room, closed the door, and then entered Room 601. He left a note on the table and went out to read!

Gu Dalian, who has returned to Cuiyu Village, is now counting the accounts!

The fruit workshop is now running in an orderly manner. Zhao Qinqin now manages the workshop in perfect order. If it weren't for the insufficient supply of fruits, she would like to suggest to the owner to recruit more people to expand the scale!

The clothing workshops don’t even have inventory. Every time a new style comes out, the workers in the workshops work around the clock and they can’t be driven away. They say the overtime pay is high and they can earn more money. The men in the family treat them like ancestors!

However, the vermicelli workshop, which had always been ignored by Gu Dalian, now had a constant stream of customers and actually made considerable profits!

The jewelry building and clothing store have established a firm foothold in Shannan County, with astonishing monthly profits. It can be said that the Xiao Gu family has become one of the wealthy!

The housekeeper Xu Wenhua managed the whole house properly, and the accountant He Laikun's accounts were also clear!

“Although it’s a little low this month, it’s still not bad!”

Gu Dalian was delighted and said to the two of them!

"Uncle Xu, Uncle He, you two have worked hard. I will raise your wages! From now on, each of you will get 30 taels of silver per month!"

The two were immediately overjoyed, if their boss didn’t hate to see people kneeling, they would have knelt down and kowtowed a few times!

He bowed and thanked her hurriedly: "Thank you, sir. We will work diligently and loyally for you!"

"The Laikun family will be loyal to the Dong family and will never let the Dong family down!"

"It's time to raise the wages of our vermicelli and fruit workshops! How about this, Uncle He, the monthly salary of the manager will be raised to 1200 taels, and as for the workers, the junior manager will get 800 wen per month, and the workers will get 500 wen! The full attendance bonus will be an additional 200 wen!"

When He Laikun heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Boss, is this... is it reasonable to ask for so much at once?"

Gu Dalian knew that he was thinking about the little Gu family, so she said:

"Uncle He, remember this saying: If you want a horse to run fast, you have to let it eat more grass! Look, are our workers working very hard?"

After hearing this, He Laikun suddenly realized: "I understand, the boss is very wise!"

As a result, everyone in the workshop worked harder, and they earned much more than the men outside!

After dinner, Zhang Lizheng came over with a piece of meat in his hand. His face was full of smiles. He seemed to have gained some weight, and even the wrinkles on his face had decreased a lot!

"Boss Gu, this is the venison that several of the village elders hunted in the mountains yesterday. Everyone shared it out and said they would send some to the young Gu family. Thank you for doing so much for the villagers!"

"Before you came last year, the village was so poor that we couldn't even get enough to eat. After you came, everyone had meat every other day, and the children were able to go to school and learn to read!"

Zhang Fa's eyes turned red and filled with tears:

"This is something that no one dares to dream of! Now, people in the surrounding area have a better life following the Gu family!

All the village chiefs wanted to come visit, but unfortunately they couldn't meet me! "

Gu Dalian thought for a moment and said:

"Uncle Lizheng, how about this? I just happen to have something to discuss with everyone. Please notify them and ask them to come over the day after tomorrow morning!"

"...Okay...Okay...There's one more thing..."

Zhang Fa hesitated for a moment and then said:

"Well, we have cleared a lot of wasteland. I want to ask Mr. Gu if there is anything that can be planted now?"

Gu Dalian smiled, confidently and flamboyantly:

"Uncle Lizheng, don't worry, this is what I'm going to talk about the day after tomorrow!"

Zhang Fa was delighted and was about to leave, but Gu Dalian hurriedly said:

"Uncle Lizheng, don't leave so quickly. I also want to discuss something with you!"

Zhang Fa sat down again. You know, he is not only the head of the village, but also the manager of Xiao Gu's family. The three taels of silver he gets every month is equivalent to nearly a year's income for others!

"Uncle Lizheng, our village is developing very well. Although the roads in the village have been repaired and made smoother, they are still difficult to travel on!"

"I want to invest in widening the road in our village and build it into a road like the official road. If more villagers maintain it every year, it won't be long before our village becomes the number one village in Shannan!"

Zhang Fa's eyes lit up. Boss Gu was the one who paid the money, and as the head of Cuiyu Village, he had made great achievements and was proud of himself, so he naturally supported him!

"No problem, I'll arrange it tomorrow!"

"This time, we'll hire more workers, provide them with a lunch, and pay them 20 cents a day, but they need to be diligent and hardworking, so please keep an eye on them!"

"This time we will use bricks and gravel to pave the road and compact the foundation so that we don't have to make any major changes in the next few decades!"

Zhang Fa was a little surprised:

"Boss, this brick is not cheap. If we want to build it outside the village..."

Gu Dalian didn't wait for her to finish and waved her hand:

"Uncle Lizheng, just make the arrangements. Don't worry about the money!"

Ever since the first time she drove out to deliver vegetables, Gu Dalian has been thinking about repairing the village roads. People with martial arts skills would feel two out of seven souls shaken all the way, let alone ordinary people!

After everything was settled, Gu Dalian drew some more leather boots, then yawned and returned to her yard and into the house!

When Yuzhu saw that her master had taken off his coat, she went out as usual, closed the door, and returned to the side room where she rested!

The eleven-year-old Dahan was embroidering insoles, with a peaceful and calm expression on her pretty face!

"Master, have you taken a rest? Sister Yuzhu, why do you think the magpie I embroidered looks weird?"

Ever since Dahan followed Gu Dalian, he wanted to do more to repay her. He just learned how to embroider, and whenever he had time he would embroider insoles, hoping to make his master walk more comfortably!

Yuzhu's face is now chubby from eating so much, her almond-shaped eyes are watery, and her little fangs are exposed when she speaks, which is very festive!

"Dahan, are you a magpie or an owl?..."
