"I also want to buy some land, the one on the outskirts of the city. Is there a bigger one? I want to build a workshop." Shen Li said.

Zhao Liang didn't expect that this friend of his boss was actually a big customer and needed big business. It was a pity that their dental shop couldn't make money from her, otherwise he would have received a lot of salary this month. Although he didn't have any money, the performance he achieved would still be counted as his.

He thought about it seriously and said, "There is a piece of land for sale on the outskirts of the city, about three acres."

"No, it's a bit small. I need about eight acres of land. You know where my house is. It's best if it's nearby." When Shen Li bought the house, he found that it was close to the outskirts of the city.

"There's no land for sale nearby yet, but I can keep an eye out for you."

Shen Li knew that land was the hardest to buy, but she had to move the workshop to the provincial capital later, otherwise it would be too inconvenient to keep it in the village. This was also the only way for development.

"Zhao Liang, not only do you have to help me keep an eye out, you can also go to the families that own land there and see if anyone is interested in selling. The price can be negotiated. If you can get this done for me, I won't treat you unfairly, and you don't have to worry about your boss finding out. As long as you get the job done for me, he won't say anything."

Shen Li felt that with Zhao Liang's ability, he should be able to buy her the land she wanted.

Zhao Liang hesitated for a moment and said, "I understand, Miss. I will do my best." In fact, the boss had told him before that he would help her with all his strength and listen to her instructions, so he naturally would not refuse.

"Then I'll wait for your news and let you know at the shop where I bought it."

Shen Li came out and saw Shen Xing waiting by the carriage.

"Is this the slave you bought?" Shen Xing asked, looking at Donggua and Gaoliang.

"How's it going, Third Brother? Does it look okay?"

"What kind of work can that skinny guy do?" Shen Xing looked at Donggua with some disgust.

"Don't they all need to work? Sometimes, people with brains are also needed. It's easy to find people who can work, but it's hard to find people with brains."

"You're right, so where are we going now?"

"Go to the inn and pick up my second brother. Then we will go to the new house and pack it up. When we come to the state capital next time, we can stay there directly."

Shen Li brought two newly bought servants, Shen Xing and Shen Liang, and cleaned up a few rooms together. They didn't clean up all of them because they were too big and they couldn't clean them up in a short time.

She bought some more things she needed and then went to the store.

"Sister Daya, we will go back to the village tomorrow. Is there any problem here between you and Sister Erya?"

Li Daya shook her head: "No more."

At this time, Li Erya hesitated and said, "Ali, when there are not many people in the store, can I go out and hand out some flyers or something?"

Shen Li was a little surprised. She didn't expect that now, she could take the initiative to find things to do: "Of course."

Li Erya was happy: "Then what should I write on the flyer?"

"It's up to you. If it doesn't work, you can discuss it with Sister Daya. For example, where to sell it, that is, the location of our shop, and if there are new flavors, or if the stock is running out, you can also write that there are only a few boxes left and those who want to buy should come quickly, but you need to change the place where the flyers are distributed."

"I understand." Li Erya began to think about it.

"Sister Daya, Sister Erya, your wages will increase from now on, 20 taels of silver per person per month, and if the sales are good, you will get bonuses." Shen Li said, looking at the two of them standing there in a daze, not happy: "What's wrong?"

"Ali, we never thought about asking for a higher salary." Li Daya said.

"I know, but as your employer, isn't it normal for me to give you a raise? Anyway, just listen to me. Besides, isn't it good to have money? You can buy whatever you want."

"Of course it's good to have money. You can eat well, dress warmly, and buy beautiful clothes." Li Erya said.

"That's fine, and you deserve it."

"That's right." After Li Erya finished speaking, she saw that Li Daya still didn't say anything, so she said, "Sister, just listen to A Li."

Li Daya always felt that Shen Li had helped them so much, and now he wanted to pay them money. She did these things because she liked it, not for the money, but she couldn't say anything now.

"Sister, you are making it very difficult for Ali."

"I didn't say I disagreed."

Seeing that Li Daya finally spoke, Shen Li said, "Sister Daya, Wu Zhong will deliver the goods regularly. If you have anything, you can ask him to pass it on."

After Shen Li and his friends left, the two Li sisters managed the store on their own.

When Li Erya came back that day, she saw that Li Daya seemed to have a cold expression on her face. This was not common. In this store selling perfume, Li Daya had never had such an expression before.

"Sister, did something happen?"

"Sun Sheng just came."

Li Erya didn't react for a moment: "Who?" Then she looked at Li Daya in surprise and said: "Sun Sheng? What is he doing here?"

"No, I was chased away."

"Sister, he is not here to get back together with you, right? You have already divorced, how dare he come to you?" Li Erya said angrily.

"I don't know what his purpose is. He may be here to ask for money again."

"It's not over yet. I won't be out distributing flyers these days. If he comes again, I'll beat him to death."

"Erya, if you cause trouble in the shop, it will affect the business. He always bullies the weak and fears the strong. Just scare him away when the time comes." Li Daya said.

Li Erya also understood that it was better not to act rashly in the shop: "I understand, sister."

Although Sun Sheng was driven away, neither of the sisters knew when he would come back, so they kept this matter in mind.

……

After Shen Li returned to the village, he asked Wu Zhong to take the winter melon and sorghum to deliver the goods.

The rest stayed at home to make ointments.

After such a long time, Shen Li felt that Wu Zhong was a useful person, but he was still needed for delivery now. However, if there was someone here for delivery in the future, she planned to let him do the distillation.

When Shen Liang has nothing to do, he would go to Xiucheng to learn things. Sometimes, it might take him several days to make one thing.

In addition to practicing martial arts, Shen Xing would also go to the workshop to help with work during his occasional rest time.

During this period of time, Shen Li had some free time. She thought about the prefectural banquet she attended with Jin Duobao. The ladies here all had some talents. She felt that she should learn from them. Even if she didn't become proficient in them, at least she could improve her temperament.

So she found a woman who sang in a teahouse in the county. This woman was not like the one she met in the teahouse with Jin Duobao last time. She was not a girl from a good family who was forced to perform to make a living.

Shen Li asked her to come to his house every two days and teach for two hours each time.
