It was definitely much more than they were gossiping about.
The hearts of all the wives present were beating like drums. It was really scary to think how much they actually had.
For the past two months, all they heard was how Dafu’s family had made a lot of money by selling ice. Many people paid one or two hundred silver for ice.
They had never seen that amount with their own eyes, so they thought the word of mouth being exchanged was exaggerated. Now, just by calculating the wages of the people they hired there… They had no choice but to believe it.
“Look, look, isn’t that Master Gu standing behind Xue Yan’s house? He looks handsome.” One of the wives suddenly saw Shao Zhongxi standing behind the house with his hands behind his back. His looks were so alluring that it made the other wives executed when they looked at him.
When the other wives saw this, they all giggled and smiled.
It was obvious that he was not from their village. He was too good-looking.
“I’ve never seen a man like that around before.” One of the wives laughed.
“Didn’t he bring his wife here? Isn’t that red-clothed girl holding Jiang Yue’s hand, his wife?” The other woman didn’t understand why everyone was speaking about him like he was unmarried.
“Of course not!” The wife immediately said, “I heard from Guixia that she’s just a maid! She isn’t his wife!”
“Really?” No one was convinced that she wasn’t.
“Then why were they wearing red? Shouldn’t that mean that they’re a couple?”
“It’s probably because everyone in Master Gu t s family wears red clothes.
Anyway, they aren’t a pair. Stop spreading nonsense..”
“Oh, oh. Okay.”
Shao Zhongxi was actually not far away. Moreover, these wives did not know how to control their voices, so Shao Zhongxi heard everything. However, he did not say anything and continued to look over the area as if he had not heard anything.
Qi Yin really didn’t hear them, because she had already led Jiang Yue to the other side of the village. Xue Yan was running at a very slow speed so she would not have heard much.
Jiang Yue stopped and looked at Xue Yan. Not only was he already drenched in sweat, but he looked like he could collapse at any moment. However, he still held on, wanting to see where his limits were.
Xue Dafu, Xue Yifu, Xue Erfu, Liu Guixia, and the others were at home discussing the matter of starting the rice noodle workshop again tomorrow. The chief had already hired 40 people for them and said that these 40 people would start working in the workshop tomorrow. The content of their discussion included what work to assign to these 40 people. This was to ensure that there would be maximum efficiency and to reduce miscommunication and overcrowding.
They had already discussed who would be responsible for buying early rice. The early rice at home had been used up long ago, so they were going to buy it from the others.
“Who is responsible for grinding the early rice into early rice in the huller room(
“Who is in charge of soaking the early rice?”
“Who is in charge of grinding the soaked early rice into poqrder in the water mill?”
“Who will mix the powder into a pulp?”
“Who will make them into silky noodles?”
“Who will take the rice noodles that have been cooled in the cold water and bring them to the village to be dried?”
“Who is responsible for sending the dried rice noodles to the shop?” Many questions were thrown around to ensure that each task was covered.
The workshop would not be drying the rice noodles. Drying noodles would take up a lot of space. It would be hard for the 40 people to maneuver around the noodles that were being dried.
Since that was the case, they decided to utilize the yard in the workshop instead to dry the noodles. They built some tents, some stoves, and a few pots. They planned to station a few workers to make rice noodles here to ensure there was enough space for everyone to carry out their tasks efficiently..
