Chapter 41: Win-Win Cooperation

In the early morning of the next day, Ye Qingge got up early. She had no choice but to do it. Lin'er caught her writing ancient prose last night and tortured her until her brain became dizzy. She went to bed early and got up early.

Lan'er has already made breakfast, and the workers are arriving one after another.

After breakfast, Lan'er sent Lin'er's little ones to the church as usual, Xianghua went to the street to buy tributes for tomorrow, and Ye Qingge stayed at home to watch the construction.

The Prime Minister's Mansion has been busy with the Furong Poetry Club for the past two days. Although the old lady and Shen Mengrou knew that Ye Qingge was renovating the house, no one came to interfere.

Firstly, this house already belongs to Ye Qingge, and what to do with it is her business. Secondly, the old lady and Shen Mengrou estimate that Ye Qingge has no other money except the one hundred taels of silver rewarded by the emperor, so interfering would be passive, so it is better to stay out of the matter.

Good.

When they acted like this, Ye Qingge felt very comfortable.

Lan'er came back to cook after sending Lin'er a few babies. After buying the herbs as tribute, she also came back to cook with Lan'er. Ye Qingge chatted with the workers for a while and then went into the kitchen to help. After all, there were many people eating.

I made steamed buns and rice at noon, and Ye Qingge also helped to fry several dishes. Since the last time there was a big fuss in the teaching hall, the masters arranged an hour's rest time for the students, so Lin'er and the others could go home and eat by themselves.

.

"Miss Ye, are you there?" Shortly after lunch, Blacksmith Zhao and Fan Jing arrived at the small courtyard and came to Ye Qingge to tell Ye Qingge about the opening of the iron shop. Fan Jing was followed by a boy who looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old.

Look.

"Is Miss Ye going to repair the house?" Fan Jing came to Ye Qingge's courtyard for the first time and asked casually.

"Well, the house is old." Ye Qingge had just instructed the workers to dismantle it when he heard Fan Jing's voice, and immediately patted the dust on his body and came out to answer.

Seeing Ye Qingge's disgraced look, Fan Jing was a little dazed for a moment.

I heard from Blacksmith Zhao that this Miss Ye is the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Palace, but aren't the ladies from wealthy families always stay away from home?

But the Miss Ye in front of him not only knew how to smelt iron and start her own business, but she could also do it herself and command the craftsmen on the construction site. This was something he had never seen before. Fan Jing couldn't help but be more impressed by Ye Qingge.

admire.

"It just so happened that you two came over. I have all the money ready here." Ye Qingge originally planned to go find these two people later, but he didn't expect them to come over on their own.

"This is why we are here." Fan Jing heard Ye Qingge's words and did not hesitate to talk about something.

"Well, there's a lot of dust here, let's go into the house and talk." Ye Qingge immediately called Fan Jing and Blacksmith Zhao into the house, and the boy behind Fan Jing also followed them.

"Miss Ye, this is my servant, named Ashun, who came to the capital with me." After Fan Jing entered the house, he immediately introduced the servant to Ye Qingge.

"Hello, Miss Ye!" Ah Shun immediately stepped forward to greet Ye Qingge.

"Yeah" Ye Qingge nodded in response. Ah Shun is indeed just like his name, he is very pleasing to the eye.

"You just came to the capital, do you have a place to live?" Ye Qingge asked casually, remembering what Fan Jing said before about coming to the capital not long ago and presumably not settling down yet.

"Currently, we rented a house on West Street and barely moved in." Fan Jing did not expect Ye Qingge to care about them, so he hurriedly replied after hearing what he said.

"Well... it's not a good idea to rent a house. Let's do this. When you look for a shop, look for one with a yard. From now on, you and Master Zhao can live there directly. It's easy and convenient."

"This is not appropriate, it will cost..." Blacksmith Zhao was interrupted by Ye Qingge before he finished speaking.

"Don't think about the money in advance. Let's settle down first." Ye Qingge saw the expressions of resistance on Fan Jing and Zhao Blacksmith's faces and knew that they were afraid of spending too much money, so he said immediately.

"Thank you, Miss, for the arrangement." Fan Jing immediately stood up and thanked Ye Qingge with his hands.

Looking at these two people, one is honest and the other is sincere and loyal. They are both very good people. Ye Qingge immediately said: "From now on, we will be a group. There is no need to thank you. We can only work together and move forward together."

.”

"Yes!" Tiejiang Zhao and Fan Jing responded with a smile.

Looking at these two people, Ye Qingge suddenly thought of the man in brocade he met on the street yesterday, and said: "Being a woman is very inconvenient. From now on, when I come to you, I will go there as a man and call me 'Mr. An Ling'."

Come on! As for my current identity, you two don’t need to mention it from now on."

"Yes, boss!" Blacksmith Zhao and Fan Jing quickly responded.

They understand better than Ye Qingge how strict the requirements for women are in this society, so they are happy to accept the matter of male status.

Ye Qingge changed her name after joining the organization, and changed it to An Ling to follow her maternal nature. However, she is both Ye Qingge and An Ling, and her name is just a title.

After explaining his identity, Blacksmith Zhao handed Ye Qingge a list: "My boss, these are the items I have sorted out for purchase. Take a look."

Ye Qingge took it and looked at it. Most of the purchases above were various iron-making tools and iron-making raw materials. The total cost was sixty taels of silver, but it was a little less than Ye Qingge expected. It was enough to tell that Zhao

The blacksmith is also worried about how to reduce costs.

"Well, you can buy everything here. It's up to you, Master Zhao. This is the money. Use it first, and then worry about it if you don't have enough." Ye Qingge said as he took out the money he earned yesterday and gave it to Blacksmith Zhao for six months.

Twelve.

"Okay, then I'll go buy it as soon as possible." Blacksmith Zhao immediately put the silver away.

"Boss, these are the shops I found yesterday. Take a look." Fan Jing hesitantly gave Ye Qingge a few drawings in his hand. These are the shops he found yesterday, but they don't have a yard.

Does not meet the owner's requirements.

Sure enough, Ye Qingge took one look and refused continuously, "Let's find a few more rooms according to the requirements just mentioned." Ye Qingge gave the picture to Fan Jing and said.

"This is ninety taels. You can rent a room that suits you." Ye Qingge handed Fan Jing the silver and said. She inquired yesterday and found that a shop in a good location costs twenty or thirty taels of silver a month. She needs it.

The location of the shop can be a little off, but it needs to be large, so the price must be more than 30 taels.

"My boss, that's too much!" Fan Jing replied.

"It's not much. I'll pay two months' rent first and buy some daily necessities with the rest."

"Thank you, boss!" Fan Jing collected the money and couldn't help but sigh that Ye Qingge had thought carefully about them.

The next few people chatted for a while. Blacksmith Zhao has conducted experiments based on the shaft furnace diagram modified by Ye Qingge today, and it is expected to be effective soon.

Fan Jing also worked out detailed store rules and showed them to Ye Qingge, including staff wages, sales system, reward mechanism, etc. Ye Qingge couldn't help but admire him. He really has business and management talents.
