"What did you say?" Shangwen stood up suddenly and looked at the person who came to find him in disbelief.
How is this possible
"This is true. I also heard that girls can learn skills and go directly to work in a workshop after they have learned them. They can earn at least one or two taels of silver a month." This was said by the princess herself, so it couldn't be false.
Shang Wen still didn't believe it: "How can this be true?"
"Really, village chief. The princess has chosen a place to build a workshop. It's at least dozens of acres of land. She also said that she would let people from those villages help build the workshop, warehouse and academy, and try to take care of every family. The salary for an unskilled worker is 70 cents a day, and for a skilled worker it's 80 cents, but meals are not provided." Even with such high wages, there are still people who will go.
Before, all these benefits were reserved for those in their village, but now, they have nothing to do with them at all.
Thinking of this, he looked at Shangwen with some resentment.
If it weren't for him, they wouldn't have missed such a great opportunity.
"If everything is fine, Village Chief, I'll leave first." He wanted to go back quickly and tell the villagers about this matter.

Let everyone come together to find the village chief.
Since the princess was willing to give them this opportunity before, it should be possible now.
It should be all right if we just ask the village chief to go and ask the princess for help.
"Go ahead." Shangwen didn't have time to care about this now. All he was thinking about was the news he had just received.
He was very unwilling to give such a good opportunity directly to the people of Jianghe Village.
No, he couldn't just let it go like this.
I must take this opportunity back no matter what.
I just went to the princess to plead for mercy. Since the princess thinks of the people of Shangjia Village first, she should not care too much about these things.
Then Shangwen is not worried anymore.
And his wife also heard the news.
Shang Jie felt a little disappointed: "Mom is really true."
"You said my father..."
"Your father will probably go to the princess to plead for mercy later, but it's no use asking for mercy now." The princess was not someone who was easy to bully, and he would not just follow her every move.
"Will the princess agree?" The people in Jianghe Village said whatever the princess said, but what about his father? He simply perfunctorily dealt with the princess.
How can such an attitude be compared with the people in Jianghe Village
"Let's not worry about this matter. I've already told your father very clearly before, but he just didn't want to listen." She had said everything she should have said very clearly, but he just didn't want to listen. There was nothing she could do.
Shang Jie sighed lightly and said no more.
No matter what, what Mom said is right. What Dad did this time was indeed a bit too much.
Shang Jie originally thought that Shang Wen would go to see the princess immediately after knowing these things, but he didn't go.
At dinner that night, Shang Jie finally couldn't help but ask, "Dad, do you know what happened in Jianghe Village?"

"Do you know what happened?"
"Aren't you going to find the princess?" Shang Jie couldn't help but ask.
"I have to go, but not now." Shangwen has his own ideas.
If they go to the princess now, she will definitely think that they have no choice but to do so. It would be better to go later, so that they can get more benefits from the princess by then.
Shang Jie could see the calculation in Shang Wen's eyes at a glance. He said dissatisfiedly: "Dad, you are still thinking about scheming against the princess at this time. She is the princess, and there are many people who want to find people to do work."
Just like the villages in Jianghe Village, the people of Shangjia Village were unwilling to listen to the princess and plant fruit trees and cotton, but others were willing to do so, and their attitude towards the princess was even better than theirs.
Now the princess only thinks about her father
He wants to make money from the princess and also wants to show his displeasure to her. What is his father thinking
Is this really that difficult
"Dad, doing this will have no effect other than angering the princess." Shang Jie couldn't help but say.
"What do you know? The princess was the first one to come to Shangjia Village, and she was also the first one to find us. As long as I go to find the princess, she will definitely give us this opportunity." Shang Wen said very confidently.
Shang Wen's overconfidence made Shang Jie very angry.
"Dad, what on earth are you daydreaming about?" What on earth was his father thinking
"We are just ordinary people, and she is the princess. We are the ones who beg the princess to give us money. The princess has never begged us to help with work. There are so many villages around, and we don't want this opportunity. If there are, there are people who are willing to take it. If you do this, the villagers will only blame you in the end. Don't you understand?" Shang Jie said angrily.
What happened to his father? Why did he change so much during this period
Shang Jie couldn't help but wonder what had happened during this period of time.
In the end, I only thought that the princess came to find Shangwen and told him something.
Other than that nothing has changed.
But could his father become like this because of this
"Shang Jie, shut up. You don't know anything. I am the first person to see the princess." This gave him a great sense of superiority.

Shang Jie was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He didn't expect it to be just like this
Taking a deep breath, Shang Jie looked a little grim: "Since Dad thinks so, then you should go and try to see if the princess will give you this opportunity and whether the face you get from the princess when you meet her for the first time is really useful."
Shang Jie was really angry.
Shangwen's wife patted Shangjie's arm soothingly. Even if they had a chance, with Shangwen in such a horrible state, there would be no chance anymore.
How could the princess want such an arrogant person to come and help with the work
Anyone with a brain can understand what is going on, but some people just can't understand what is being said.
"Jer, stop talking."
Shang Jie looked at his mother: "Mom..."
"Since your father has said so, let your father do it." Shang Wen couldn't hear anything now. He felt that he was the first person to see the princess, so he had a sense of superiority. He was able to save face in front of the princess and had the right to speak.
But he didn't even think about where this status came from.
Hearing this, Shangwen snorted, thinking that the mother and son were really short-sighted.
There is no style of their family at all.
The villagers became anxious when they learned about the changes that were about to take place in Jianghe Village. They couldn't fall behind, otherwise they would definitely be laughed at by the people over there.
Shangjia Village has always lived better than the other villages over there, and they didn't want to end up living worse off than any of the poorer villages.
After discussing it, everyone came to find Shangwen.
Shangwen stayed indoors and never met anyone from the village.
Shang Jie is now disappointed with Shang Wen. He should have gone to the princess when he got the news, but his father...
