Chapter 564: Building a Noodle Workshop
Zhong Ruiyu and Zheng Zhiyuan laughed and walked out with their arms around each other's shoulders.
The girls following behind them couldn't help laughing when they saw how they looked.
A group of people strolled in the front yard, enjoying the beautiful scenery and feeling the fresh air.
They walked and talked, sharing each other's interesting stories and feelings in life.
Time passed quickly. After more than half an hour, everyone felt that the food in their stomachs had been almost digested, so they decided to return to the flower hall to continue discussing the next work.
The maid came forward with tea. Zheng Sisi looked at everyone, told them all the plans, and then asked, "What do you think? Is there anything else to add?"
Zhong Ruiyu touched his still round belly and said with a smile: "Sister Sisi, just do it. You don't need to ask for our opinions. Just look at how we look now and you will know how good the effect is."
Others also nodded, expressing their satisfaction.
Zheng Sisi couldn't help but shook her head and laughed, thinking: "This is really mysterious confidence!"
Since everyone wanted to start production right away, she explained in detail what needed to be done next and arranged the work that each person needed to be responsible for.
Finally, Zheng Sisi said: "I plan to provide the first batch of goods to the students participating in the Spring Examination and the teachers in charge of the examination in the Imperial Academy."
Everyone nodded in agreement. They knew that Zheng Sisi's ideas must have their reasons, and they always supported her decisions unconditionally.
Zheng Sisi continued, "This time it's free!"
Everyone still nodded without any objection.
He Qianqian smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Even if it's provided for free, the cost won't be too much. But through the publicity of these students, our reputation will definitely get better and better!"
Zheng Sisi decisively gave a thumbs up and sighed, "People with culture still have a longer-term vision!"
He Qianqian lowered her head shyly, a blush appearing on her face.
Zheng Sisi said: "Now that we have made the decision, let's take action! Once the workshop is open, we will produce more goods. I believe we will receive many orders after the Spring Examination. Especially those business people will definitely like it."
After saying that, Sheng Zhen took Zhong Ruiyu and Zheng Zhiyuan, and the three of them went out to find a house to set up a noodle workshop.
Originally, Zheng Sisi suggested placing it in the Princess's Mansion, as there was space there and it would be convenient for her to manage it nearby.
But Sheng Zhen thinks this is not a good idea. He believes that business and life should be separated so that they can develop better.
Moreover, as production increases in the future, there will be many people coming in and out to transport goods, and it will be difficult to manage. Moreover, this is the inner city close to the imperial palace, and some merchants cannot come in. It would be more convenient to buy a separate house.
Only then did Zheng Sisi realize that she had thought too simply before. She only considered her own convenience but did not fully consider the actual situation.
After Sheng Zhen and others left, Zheng Sisi asked housekeeper Chen to send a message to Grandma Zhou, telling her that they needed to buy some workers.
After completing these arrangements, Zheng Sisi finally had time to rest. After a long period of busy work, she also wanted to relax, so she played mahjong with her three little sisters.
As night fell, Zheng Sisi stayed alone in the room, her thoughts gradually drifting away.
She thought of what Sheng Zhen had told her about spies from other countries, and felt extremely aggrieved.
Is it impossible to even live a free and easy life?
These people came here quietly and silently, making it hard to guard against them.
She decided not to sit there and wait for death anymore. She had to be prepared and not just passively take the beating and escape.
Zheng Sisi suddenly thought of an object she had seen before, which might be a tool for her self-defense.
So she couldn't wait to enter the space and went straight to the second floor.
She went back and forth from room to room, searching, and finally found the item in the cabinet in the last room.
It was a crossbow and a musket.
Zheng Sisi looked at the crossbow and musket in front of her, and an indescribable surprise surged in her heart.
She never imagined that these precious treasures were still well preserved.
The musket brought back memories of her childhood.
When she was a child, she remembered that she often saw wild boars in the fields of the village.
This musket was purchased by my grandfather at that time. He was paid for teaching and was considered a wealthy man in the village.
After owning the musket, my grandfather brought great help to the village and successfully killed several wild boars that came down the mountain to destroy crops.
However, as time went by, the number of wild boars decreased, and the state regulations prohibited even the hunting of sparrows, let alone wild animals such as wild boars, which were all listed as protected objects.
