The three men received the money, feeling rather excited.
What Miss said was true. She gave each of them 1,000 taels.
Previously, when they were managing the manor, although they had handled money before, they were never given so much!
How much food could 1,000 taels buy?
Wasn’t she afraid that they would run away with the money?
However, with the people from Ruyi Restaurant and Third Master Zhou watching, the chances of them escaping were very small.
Moreover, if they were captured, their outcome would definitely be very bad.
Even if Miss was willing to let them go, Ruyi Restaurant and Third Master Zhou would want to punish them.
After all, even though the manor belonged to the Miss, Ruyi Restaurant and Third Master Zhou were too involved.
Regardless, her actions showed that she trusted them.
Even for the rich, 1,000 taels was not a small amount.
Lin Xiaoyue instructed the three men again before continuing to explain about the blueprints.
The trip to Mao’er Manor ended in half a day.
At noon, Lin Xiaoyue and the others returned to Daishi Village with the Zhao father and son.
The next day, she went to Meng Manor.
Only then did she manage to tour all three manors.
Another two days pa.s.sed.
The workshop was finally completed.
Lin Xiaoyue took Zhao Shanshan to tour the workshop and then asked the servants to clean the workshop.
“This workshop is built better than 1 thought.” When she came out of the workshop, Lin Shaoyue’s face was full of joy.
“Uncle Fu, send someone to inform Manager Liang and Third Master Zhou. If they are interested, they could come over and take a look.” Lin Xiaoyue said to Zhao Fu.
“Yes, Miss!” Zhao Fu’s face lit up as he quickly agreed.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled and looked at Zhao Shanshan.
“Tomorrow, I’ll go to town with you to see Zhou Shi to tell her the good news.”
After the workshop was built, Zhou Shi would definitely want to come and take a look.
“Yes, Miss!” Zhao Shanshan said.
The next day.
As planned, Lin Xiaoyue went to town with Zhao Shanshan.
Zhao Kang and Zhao Qiang were sent to Manager Liang and Third Master Zhou to report the good news.
At this moment, in the Hei residence in Qingshi Town.
Zhou Shi saw the braised pork and chili sauce that Lin Xiaoyue brought, and her face was filled with joy.
“You came at the right time! I just finished the braised pork and chili sauce. I was just about to go to Daishi Village!”
She and her husband both liked to eat braised pork. Moreover, ever since they ate the braised pork that Lin Xiaoyue had added seasoning to, she would do the same.
During this period of time, they never stopped eating braised meat. They even added chili sauce to it when stir-frying.
The jar of chili sauce that she gave her previously had already been used up. She had also finished the braised pork yesterday.
“If you like it, just get someone to go to Daishi Village and let me know.
Shanshan comes to town almost every day. 1 can ask her to send it to you.” Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
After chatting with Zhou Shi for a while, Lin Xiaoyue told her about the completion of the workshop.
She was overjoyed.
“Of course 1 have to go and take a look! I’ll pack up now. 1’11 go to your house for lunch!” She said excitedly.
It just so happened that it was quite busy at the dock recently, and her husband would not be back for lunch today.
“There’s no hurry. We still have to go grocery shopping. When we’re done, we’ll come get you.” Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
Zhou Shi’s eyes lit up.
“I’ll go grocery shopping with you! I’ll buy more and ask the cook to make braised meat for me in the afternoon.”
Zhou Shi grabbed Lin Xiao Yue’s arm.
“Not only does Hei Gang and I like to eat braised pork, my father also likes it very much. He even asked someone to tell me to send more.”
“I’m going back to my mother’s house in two days. If I didn’t bring him back the braised meat, he will accuse me of being unfilial!” Zhou Shi said half-jokingly.
Lin Xiaoyue was amused.
“Since he likes it, I’ll get them to make more in the afternoon.”
Old Master Zhou had given her a manor. Speaking of which, she had not thanked him properly.
Zhou Shi asked Lin Xiaoyue to wait for a while, then went to pack her things.
Then, she left with Lin Xiaoyue and Zhao Shanshan after giving a few instructions to the servants.
After leaving the house, the three of them went to the west market.
“We have enough pig offals. Let’s buy some chickens, ducks, geese, and so on. Bring them home to let your father try them.” Seeing that Zhou Shi was going to the next meat stall to buy pig offal, Lin Xiaoyue pulled her back.
If they ate too much, they would get sick of it.
Zhou Shi’s eyes lit up.
“Sure! Then I’ll go buy a few more! I haven’t eaten braised chicken, duck or goose yet!”
