Seeing Liu Ji jumping away like springs on the soles of his feet, it was announced throughout the courtyard that he was also a man with pocket money.
Qin Yao curled her lips, it was embarrassing.
Hold your head and continue taking stock.
Just recently completed the order for the Shenli Book Box from Fulong Trading Company. Song Yu went to Fucheng to settle the subsequent accounts. After excluding various costs and taxes, Qin Yao personally received 650 taels of silver.
This time, Song Yu failed to bring in more orders. The demand from Fulong Trading Company was greatly reduced, and they only ordered 2,000 pieces, which were to be delivered within half a year.
On average, stationery factories will only receive about 60 taels of orders per month in the first half of next year.
If it weren't for the new product Lady's Box, Qin Yao would have taken a breath.
In this way, the three old people, who thought they would not survive the spring, lived well until the winter.
After a few days, Zhen Yubai basically did not go to Lianyuan during the day. Qin Yao observed secretly at night and only caught him once.
After all the villagers voted, Liu Dafu, Liu Yang, Liu Qi and Liu Zhong were finally selected as village assistants.
As for this plan, the old village chief and clan chief are very supportive and are helping to lobby the villagers. If optimistic, it can be implemented in the beginning of next spring.
Many people in the village had objections to what Qin Yao did, but Qin Yao said: "In the future, all villagers in Liujia Village will be treated like this when they become old and weak."
There was no surprise, he was shouted away again by Gong Liangxiao without mercy.
Another hundred mother-of-pearl ladies' boxes will be delivered at the end of this month. If everything goes well, another huge sum of money can be received before New Year's Eve.
Song Zhang's family will leave after the new year. Based on this calculation, the new county magistrate will be in place within two months of the new year. When the time comes, prepare a small gift and let Liu Ji take him there to try out the new county magistrate's idea.
The remaining 10% are all lonely old people who have lost their labor force. There are three in total.
After settling the accounts, Qin Yao felt comfortable again.
There has been an increase and a decrease. Counting the original amount, Qin Yao now still has 2,736 taels of cash in hand, as well as a warehouse full of grain.
The money and food in her hands now give her a great sense of security. If she can continue to cooperate with the new county magistrate, her life as a landowner will be much happier.
As soon as this request was made, it received strong support from all the villagers in Liujia Village.
Thinking about it from his perspective, if she was so disturbed by someone, she would probably have wanted to kill him.
“There are also the three old people in the village. When it snows, we arrange them to live in the same house for the winter. They can take care of each other. The charcoal fire in the village can also be saved, and it will be easier for the village to take care of them.”
The villagers no longer complained, but felt at ease with having someone to rely on. Qin Yao also plans to use part of the dividends to the villagers as pensions for the villagers in the future, and also encourages other villagers who have not participated in the shares to hand over a part of the clan's money every year for pension security.
Qin Yao guessed that someone in the capital might want to call Gong Liangliao back.
Even though there are many doubts about Zhen Yubai, it cannot be denied that his teaching quality is excellent and he is very patient with his students.
Forget it, let's talk about it later, there's no point in thinking about it now.
Qin Yao has not been idle these days. With Liu Ji greeting Song Zhang's family, she does not need to worry about interpersonal relationships. She takes this opportunity to form a team of village assistant leaders in Liujia Village in the village.
But the old man obviously didn't want to get involved in the disputes in the court anymore, and he didn't even want to hear Zhen Yubai mention the people behind him.
However, with these 650 taels in the account, the 170 taels required for the annual gift does not seem so painful.
It's going to snow. She has to inform every household to get ready, take a look at the widows and elderly people in the village, pay attention to the temperature changes, and prepare enough warm materials.
Liu Yang: "Okay."
Dang Ji told Song Yu Yunniang and others to continue to develop new products and not to slack off.
But after Qin Yao became the village chief, she allocated part of the clan's public funds to distribute free food and vegetables to the three old people every month, ensuring their basic livelihood.
Thinking of this, Qin Yao felt that she couldn't be too optimistic. Even if the new county magistrate and Song Zhang were Jinshi in the same class and behaved like a gentleman, people would change.
After all, this is a legitimate position, and it feels completely different from the previous years when the village chief and clan leader just called someone casually.
Thick clothes are needed for winter, and they still come from the public house. Qin Yao asked Liu Yang and other young people in the village to help repair the house of the three of them, so that it is no longer ventilated. As long as the charcoal fire is sufficient, spring will come again.
Qin Yao also had some insidious discussions with this aunt and found that apart from her liking to visit Lotus Courtyard at night, there was nothing unusual about Zhen Yubai. She was just a teacher who really liked children.
On the contrary, Qin Yao, the 'Evil Ghost Empress', has an even worse reputation on the road. Don't let the new official take office and set her on fire.
There were originally five, but two froze to death in the past few years, and now there are only three.
So the unofficial position of village assistant was specially added to assist the village chief and patriarch in managing everything in the village.
"That's right!" Qin Yao remembered an important thing and told Liu Yang: "At the foot of the mountain, arrange for two idle people from the village to go there when they have nothing to do to prevent wild beasts from coming down the mountain and hurting people and animals. "
Because the children at home always say how good the master is, the villagers are also very enthusiastic about the master. Anything good at home is sent to the school.
However, for this kind of thing, you have to ask "you want me to have it." Nowadays, the folk customs in Kaiyang County have become extremely good. There is only one Wang Mawu left who is a tortoise who can't make trouble.
Because they are unable to work, two of them also have chronic diseases. In the past, they would have basically waited to die.
This year, people in the village have become richer. 90% of the villagers have enough supplies for the winter, so Qin Yao no longer needs to worry.
Qin Yao inspected the village and called all the four people who could be called over, asking them to find someone to trim the branches extending out by the roadside to prevent the weather from getting colder and freezing, and the ice falling down and injuring passers-by.
After the money in this unified account reaches a certain amount, she plans to hand it over to the young people in the village who are good at business and let them make money.
After the two of them dispersed, Qin Yao went to the school again.
Zhen Yubai didn't know how to cook. After he recovered from his illness, he hired a village lady to prepare two meals a day for him, and also helped with cleaning, laundry, etc.
While maintaining the original organizational structure of village chiefs and clan chiefs, due to the increasing number of problems and conflicts caused by the increasing number of floating people in Liujia Village, there is a serious shortage of management personnel in the village.
After closing the account book, Qin Yao stood up, stretched, picked up the small charcoal jar that could be held in her arms, and went out to inspect the village.
The only ones who could come were Liu Dafu and Liu Yang. The old man and the young man carefully wrote down the village chief's instructions.
“Village chief?”
Zhen Yubai walked out from behind the school room, carrying a bamboo basket in one hand and a small **** in the other, as if digging wild vegetables.
I was a little surprised to see Qin Yao standing blankly outside the classroom door. (End of chapter)
