Carefree Scholar

Chapter 114: understaffed

Views:

In less than half a day, the new batch of Ruyilu was sold out again, and even the prepaid orders were queued for seven days. Li Yi closed the shop door as usual, and went back to the village with the little maid.

Not long after, a carriage got out of the garage, drove out of the gate of the mansion, and went straight along the official road. After more than a quarter of an hour, it came to the foot of Green Willow Mountain.

If you don't continue along the official road, you will be on a rugged mountain road ahead, and the carriage will be difficult to drive. The young man who drove the carriage jumped out of the carriage, turned around and said loudly: "Guest officer, we have arrived!"

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Li Yi took Xiaohuan's hand and got out of the car, took out ten cents from his waist and handed it to the guy, saying, "Tomorrow is still the old time, remember to wait here."

"Okay!" The guy put away the copper coins, and with a simple smile on his face, he said, "Don't worry, guest officer, I will definitely wait for you here tomorrow morning, and I won't delay your business!"

For this guy, the son in front of him is already a regular visitor.

The business of the car dealership was not very good, and he was naturally satisfied with such stable customers who rented carriages twice a day.

Li Yi waved his hand, and watched the guy drive away, and walked towards the stockade with the little maid.

From Liuye Village to Qing'an Fucheng, except for this section of the mountain road, most of them are flat roads that can be traveled by horse-drawn carriage. Renting a carriage can save more than half the time compared to pure walking.

Although it was said that after leaving Fucheng, the carriage was a little bumpy on the official road, but it was not too violent. Since Li Yi knew that there was such an industry as driving in Fucheng, he used this kind of transportation more often.

For ordinary people, in order to save ten cents, they would rather choose to walk, but now that Ruyifang's business is so good, with tens of taels of silver coming in every day, there is no need to save money in these places.

What's more, the time saved is enough for him to create wealth far more than ten cents.

After walking the mountain road for less than half an hour, the stockade could already be seen. Not long after entering the stockade, I saw Lao Fang surrounded by several young girls, with a distressed expression on his face, not knowing what happened to him.

Today's Lao Fang seems to be the most successful man in Liuye village except Li Yi, and the envy of countless people.

Li Yi has a lazy temper. After the affairs of the candied haws and the workshop were on the right track, he completely let go. It was Lao Fang who took care of it. Now even Liu's direct lineage also depends on Lao Fang's face. From the perspective of others, it is naturally Majestic.

Li Yi has seen several women get together more than once, talking about how much virtue the old Fang's mother-in-law and aunt had accumulated in their previous lives to be able to follow such a capable man. It looks like an older fan girl.

Of course, Li Yi never mentioned this matter to Lao Fang, lest he get carried away and harm other married women, and don't cause another human tragedy and destroy the harmony and stability of the village...

However, this is only limited to those women, when even these young girls...

This made Li Yi a little unimaginable in his heart. Could it be that he really underestimated Lao Fang's charm before

"Uncle Fang, just help us find a way..." several girls looked at old Fang and begged.

Lao Fang has never been good at dealing with women. Surrounded by so many girls, he couldn't help but feel a little bit dizzy, and said with embarrassment: "It's not that I don't help you, but there is no shortage of people in the candied haws. If you go, you can help." Nothing to do, the work in the workshop is not something you little girls can do."

"We are idle at home all day long, Uncle Fang, please help us..."

"There's a lot we can do..."

"Yes, Uncle Fang, please..."

Only Uncle Fang can help them in this matter, and the girls continued to beg without giving up.

The voice sounded in his ears, and Lao Fang's head grew a little bigger again. He turned his eyes and suddenly saw a familiar figure walking towards him.

"Uncle, you are back!"

"Brother-in-law..." Seeing Li Yi, the girls bowed reservedly.

"What's going on?" Li Yi looked at Lao Fang and the others, and asked with some doubts.

"These children don't want to stay in the stockade, so they insist on asking me to find some work for them." Lao Fang looked at Li Yi and said helplessly: "There is no shortage of manpower at the candied haws, and at the workshop, my uncle, you can do it too." knew… "

Li Yi nodded. After Liu's direct lineage joined, the candied haws business has reached saturation. As for the workshop, people are not allowed to approach it on weekdays. The biggest reason is confidentiality, and part of it is because of safety issues. It's all about working with alcohol and fire, and it's not suitable for these women.

"If you want me to say, this woman should stay in the village well, cook and cook, and take care of the house. It's really not suitable for going out to show her face." Lao Fang looked up at Li Yi and asked: "Grandpa, do you think so?"

When the girls beside Lao Fang heard the words, disappointment appeared on their pretty faces, and they lowered their heads involuntarily.

Uncle Fang is right. As a woman, especially a woman who has not left the cabinet, she should respect women's virtues and should not show her face, but the parents at home are busy, and even sister Qin Qing is teaching those children in the school. It seems that everyone There are things to do, except that they are idle at home all day, and they naturally feel uncomfortable.

Li Yi cast a glance at Lao Fang. These girls are more pursuing than Lao Fang for making such a request. He turned to look at them and said with a smile: "It just so happens that Ruyifang is busy recently. If you want to If so, go there and help."

"Master, this..." Lao Fang looked up at Li Yi with surprise.

"Really?" Several girls raised their heads, also showing disbelief.

Li Yi nodded and said, "The shops in Fucheng are too busy recently. You clean up today, and you can go to the shop tomorrow."

It was beyond his expectation that a few girls had such thoughts, but he had planned to hire someone. These girls were all his own, and they were trustworthy. Instead of hiring a few outsiders, it would be better to let them go.

"Thank you, brother-in-law!" Several girls were overjoyed, with smiles on their pretty faces, and thanked quickly.

"Of course, you must first obtain the consent of your family members for this matter." Seeing their cheering, Li Yi added.

A young girl said with a smile: "Don't worry, brother-in-law, they have already agreed."

Now that their family members have agreed, Li Yi naturally has no objections. He went to the workshop to have a look, and asked Lao Fang and the others to hurry up the production of a new batch of Ruyilu. Enough, when the production of spirits can be started, such a small workshop may not be able to meet the production requirements...

At that time, I am afraid that even the manpower will be insufficient...
