421 Judgent was right

Shi Qingluo realized that the northern border was like a sieve, with so many people trying to take advantage of the loopholes.

“I’ll start teaching them how to make canned food tomorrow, as well as candles and soap.”

“You should have found so trustworthy people, right?” she asked.

Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “I’ve sieved out the people in the workshops several tis. I’ll find an excuse to get rid of the spies.

“You can teach those who are trustworthy what to do. I’ll also have people keep an eye on them and not let them leak it.

“If the process can be separated, it’s best to divide it for several groups of people to do it separately.”

“Yes, I think so too,” Shi Qingluo said with a smile.

“By the way, you know a little about the art of invisibility right? Taoist master Chang Wing is better at this. You can talk to him more about this.”

On the way here, Shi Qingluo had co into contact with this Taoist priest and realized that he had his own wisdom and did not desire power.

It was no wonder that he no longer had the intention to help King Jin.

He wanted to travel around and write a travel book.

Xiao Hanzheng’s interest was piqued. “Sure!”

After a while, he cooked two bowls of noodles and even placed poached eggs on top.

He placed the two bowls of noodles on the table. “My wife, try the noodles I cooked.”

Shi Qingluo looked at the face. It was pretty good looking and slled fragrant.

She stirred her own bowl and took a sip.

His eyes lit up. “Brother Zheng, the noodles you cooked are really good.”

Her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were both very good at cooking.

She didn’t expect her little husband’s cooking to be good as well. He had inherited it well.

Xiao Hanzheng liked to be praised by his wife. “I’m glad you like it. I’ll cook for you if you want to eat it in the future.”

“Sure,” Shi Qingluo replied with a smile.

The two of them ate a bowl of noodles each, then held hands and went out for a walk. When they returned, it was already dawn.

Mother Xiao and Xiao Baili were happy to see Shi Qingluo.

The two of them cooked so porridge and stead so dumplings. Shi Qingluo ate so as well.

After eating, she followed Xiao Hanzheng to the workshops built by the county governnt.

When they arrived, the people working in the workshop were already there.

Everyone was hardworking and were looking for work.

Shi Qingluo first pulled Xiao Hanzheng to find a few craftsn.

He asked them to specially make a batch of clay jars and then make a kind of wooden lid. Both of them could be connected and tightened in a spiral shape.

Adding a layer of rubber to the wooden cover would ensure that it was air tight.

The craftsn that Xiao Hanzheng’s father had given them were all experienced craftsn.

What Shi Qingluo had suggested wasn’t difficult for them, so they quickly got a hang of it.

They didn’t have much work to do recently.

Not only did they not feel relaxed or happy, they were even a little worried.

After all, whether or not they could be removed from slavery would depend on their performance.

As for the canned food, they had to wait for a batch of cans and wooden caps to be produced.

Hence, Shi Qingluo went to the candle and soap workshops to teach the people Xiao Hanzheng had selected how to make them.

At the sa ti, she also divided the production process into several steps. After a portion of them learned each step, she would lead another group of people to do it.

Furthermore, the people who did each process were in different rooms.

Shi Qingluo even got the carpenters to make quite a number of flower carving molds.

Ordinary soap without any carvings would be cheaper, so that most people could afford it.

Soap and scented soap that were carved in different shapes and added with different spices and materials would be sold at a dium-high price.

She even openly purchased a few types of fresh flowers that could be used to extract fragrance and dicinal herbs that could be used to make dicinal soaps in the county.

After two busy days, Shi Qingluo finally had the ti to rest.

Then, Zhuo Zheng ca to look for her.

He looked depressed and angry.

Shi Qingluo knew what was going on in his mind, but she still asked with concern on the surface, “What’s wrong with you? Who made you angry?”

“My money bag is gone,” Zhuo Zheng said angrily.

Shi Qingluo put on an appropriate act of surprise. “How did your money bag disappear? ”

“There was an acrobatic performance in the county today, so I went in to take a look. But when I ca out, my purse and money bag were all gone.” Zhuo Zheng replied.

He was really upset because he didn’t feel at ease leaving the silver notes and crushed silver pieces in the inn, so he carried them with him.

There was a pouch on his chest that was specially used to store silver notes, and the money pouch on his waist was used to store silver pieces.

He didn’t expect that after he squeezed in to see acrobatics, they would disappear when he ca out. He didn’t need to think to know that he had been robbed.

Because it had always been crowded before, he was in a packed area multiple tis, so he didn’t know who had stolen his purse and money bag.

It wasn’t good for his n to appear in the open, so they were either disguised rchants or secret guards.

It was very crowded at that ti, and he was pushed to the front, which led to his n not being able to find the thief in ti and catch him.

“It’s easy to be robbed in a place like this,” Shi Qingluo consoled.

“I’ll ask my husband to send a bailiff to help you look.”

Zhuo Zheng nodded, “Okay!

That was the best that could be done.

However, it might be a good thing to lose the money bag.

His mind turned and he looked at Shi Qingluo pitifully.

“Sister, I lost my money bag. I don’t have money to stay in the inn.

“I’ll have to trouble you to take in for a while.

“I won’t stay here for free, I’ll help you with the work.”

When Shi Qingluo heard him say this, she seed to think for a mont.

Only then did she say, “That’s fine. You’ve lost your purse, so you’ll have problems with food and accommodation. I don’t keep idle people here. It’s good for you to work to earn food and accommodation. You can also train yourself to be more disciplined.”

Zhuo Zheng heard her agree and imdiately revealed a big smile, “Yes, I also want to make myself more disciplined.”

“I have two jobs with vacancies here,” Shi Qingluo said with a smile.

“I’m going to the nearby village to teach the villagers how to raise bees and plant so dicinal herbs. It’s very hard to be exposed to the wind and the sun, but it’s also a good exercise.

“If you want to go, you can co with to help. I’ll give you a tael of silver every month.”

When Zhuo Zheng heard that he had to run to the village every day, he felt that it was too tiring and he would get tanned.

When he heard that he would only get one tael of silver a month, he was even more unhappy.

He didn’t really co here to suffer.

“What about the second job?” he asked.

Shi Qingluo said, “The canned food workshop, candle and soap workshop are about to start their operations. We’re in need of manpower.

“If you’re interested, you can go help out in these two workshops.

“It’s not that hard, so the salary will be less. I’m giving others five hundred wen a month, and I can give you six hundred wen, like a preferential price.

“You can see which job you’re interested in,”

Zhuo Zheng uttered under his breath, getting 600 wen a month is called a beggar.

A trinket that he casually buy would cost more than six hundred wen.

Although it was not much, it was to his liking.

“Then, how about I work in the workshop?” he said after being in a dilemma for a while.

“I’m going to take the imperial examination in the future, so it’s not good if I can’t recover from my tan,” he explained.

When Shi Qingluo heard this, she knew that her little husband’s judgnt was right.

She smiled and said, “That’s true. You’re a scholar. If you go out all day, you’ll look rough under the rain and sun. If you manage to sit for the court examinations in the future, your image will be affected.”

“Then you can work in the workshops. Which workshop do you want to work in?” she asked.
