Space Farming: Traveling through Ancient Times to Do Business

Hearing this, Li Yuan was stunned at first, and then responded without hesitation: "I, Li Yuan, really don't have any great abilities, but as long as the lady needs me, I will do my best to serve you!"

Jiang Xue couldn't help but look at the other person in surprise. After thinking for a moment, she slowly nodded.

A Quarter of an Hour Later, Yun County, Jiang's Residence

With the careful arrangement of Mrs. Wang, the plaque of Jiang Xue's house has been completely renewed.

Not only is this house several times larger than any other house in the town, but its interior furnishings are also brand new.

Because of this, Jiang Xue bought it decisively after falling in love with it at first sight.

"Miss, why do we need to hire so many accountants? How can a house need so many people?" Chen Yuxi had this question in her mind when she was at the pawnshop just now, but she had never dared to ask. Now that no one was around, she finally mustered up the courage to ask Jiang Xue.

Jiang Xue was slightly stunned when she heard this, then smiled and said, "Xi'er, our family is about to open a shop in the county. Without a sufficient number of accountants to help, how can we run it smoothly?"

After hearing this, Chen Yuxi nodded in sudden enlightenment, expressing her understanding.

Then, Jiang Xue turned to the servants behind her and said, "Okay, everyone gather here. I have something important to tell you."

After everyone gathered around, Jiang Xue introduced herself: "My name is Jiang Xue, the one on the left is Jiang Chen, and the one on the right is my personal maid Chen Yuxi. From now on, I hope you will work together to take care of the affairs of the house." As soon as the voice fell, the servants bowed and saluted, shouting in unison: "Miss Jiang, Master Jiang!"

"Also, everyone who enters my Jiang family is a member of my Jiang family, so from now on everyone must change their surname to Jiang!" Jiang Xue looked at everyone with a serious face and announced solemnly.

There were voices of response from the crowd: “Okay!”

Then, Jiang Xue spoke again: "The name remains unchanged, just change the surname to Jiang." Her eyes swept over everyone, finally stopping at Jiang Zelin who was standing in the front row.

"Jiang Zelin, from now on, you are the housekeeper of my Jiang family. I will watch your every word and action. I hope you won't let me down." There was a hint of majesty in Jiang Xue's voice.

Hearing this, Butler Jiang was delighted and quickly knelt down to express his gratitude: "Thank you for your trust, Miss! I will do my best to live up to your trust!" He knew that this was a rare opportunity and also a heavy responsibility.

Becoming the steward of the Jiang family not only means an improvement in status, but also requires practical actions to prove one's ability and loyalty.

“Among the shops I purchased, three are about to open for business. Their specific locations are at the main street, the market, and the center of the street.

I have already made a decision on the location of the shop." After saying that, Jiang Xue turned her gaze to Butler Jiang who was standing beside her.

Butler Jiang was from the capital, so he was naturally an intelligent person. He immediately understood the meaning of his young lady's words: "Young lady, you mean that these three places are where the new stores we plan to open are located."

"Then may I ask, young lady, what kind of business do our shops intend to engage in? In addition, what words should be engraved on the signboard? Also, how much do the various dishes on the menu cost?" Butler Jiang continued to ask.

"Well... let's call them 'Jiang's Snack Shop No. 3', 'Jiang's Snack Shop No. 4' and 'Jiang's Snack Shop No. 5'.

Remember, you must write the two words "Jidian" in gold paint." Jiang Xue replied.

Jiang Xue patiently answered all the questions, then turned to Jiang Yuan and gently called out his name: "Jiang Yuan."

Maybe because he had just changed his name, Jiang Yuan did not react immediately. It was not until the person next to him gently poked him that he woke up from his dream.

"Ah? What's wrong, miss?" Jiang Yuan looked at Jiang Xue in confusion.

Jiang Xue looked at him and smiled helplessly.

She pointed at the accountants and said, "From now on, you are the accountant of our Jiang's house."

You will be in charge of the income from the shops in Yun County, and you will also be responsible for the expenses of the Jiang residence."

Upon hearing this important task, Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then immediately became excited.

He bowed deeply and said sincerely: "Thank you for your trust, Miss. I will definitely not let you down."

Jiang Xue looked at him, with a glimmer of satisfaction in her eyes. She knew that she had chosen the right person.

After dismissing the others, Jiang Xue led a few people into the hall, sat upright on an exquisite nanmu chair, and cast her eyes on Jiang Chen who was standing next to her.

"Achen, take two thousand taels of silver and give it to Jiang Yuan. Part of it will be used for daily expenses of the Jiang residence, and the other part will be used for store operating expenses."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen took out two silver notes with a face value of one thousand taels each from his pocket without hesitation and handed them steadily to Jiang Yuan who was standing on the side.

Jiang Yuan took the banknote and a smile of gratitude and respect appeared on his face.

Then, Jiang Xue turned her gaze to the housekeeper Jiang who was standing not far away, her eyes revealing a hint of expectation and trust. "Go and see what the mansion needs. I don't like noise, so you can take care of the arrangements."

Butler Jiang bowed and responded, "Yes, Miss." After that, he turned around and left, starting to get busy.

Jiang Xue looked at Butler Jiang's back as he left and nodded with satisfaction.

Suddenly, she remembered something and asked again, "By the way, where is this academy located?" She planned to go there in person to see and learn about the Jiang family's situation in this academy.

Jiang Yuan immediately replied, "The academy is located on Wutong Street in the east of the city, not far from the Jiang residence. If you want to go there, I can prepare a car."

Jiang Xue nodded in agreement.

Jiang Xue slowly stood up and said, "Then let's set off immediately!"

Jiang Yuan nodded and responded: "Okay, Miss."

Then, he glanced at the people around him, and finally his eyes fell on a young man who looked quite smart and agile.

Jiang Yuan waved his hand, motioning the young man to come over, and whispered a few words to him.

After listening to this, the young man immediately nodded, turned around and walked quickly to the door, ready to drive the carriage.

A quarter of an hour later, the carriage slowly stopped on Wutong Street in Yun County.

"Miss, this is Wutong Academy." Jiang Xiaoliu, who was driving the carriage, looked at the familiar building in front of him and said softly.

He skillfully pulled the reins in his hand, then jumped out of the car, walked to the door, gently opened it, and took out a small wooden stool and placed it on the ground.

Jiang Xue got off the carriage gracefully. She was wearing a light blue dress, the hem of her skirt fluttering in the wind, like a fairy descending to earth.

She nodded slightly to express her gratitude to Jiang Xiaoliu, but her eyes were cast towards the ancient and solemn Wutong Academy.
