Chapter 207: Relying On (1)_1
"Ziyin, are you trying to recruit people to farm?" Back in the courtyard, Lou Zheng hesitated for a moment before finally asking.
"Apart from farming, we also need people to raise chickens and ducks. The house will be opening new workshops, and we’ll need people for everything." Lin Ziyin replied.
Opening new workshops? Lou Zheng was taken aback.
However, concerning business secrets, he didn’t feel it was appropriate to ask what kind of business the Lin Family was planning to do.
Regardless of what business the Lin Family was doing, as long as his family continued to earn silver, that’s all that mattered. With the thought in mind, Lou Zheng felt completely reassured.
But the returning villagers were all uneasy. Despite their loud clamoring in front of Lou Zheng, once they returned home and shut the doors, thinking back to Lin Ziyin’s words, regret was their main emotion.
Not because of anything else, but their regret was not being able to work for the Lin Family, let alone the benefits mentioned by Lin Ziyin. Not being able to enjoy any advantages was distressing. Even rural kids could attend school for free. That was a great honor, and they had missed it. What could they do now?
However, those standing on the right were overwhelmed with joy. Most of these people were honest and hardworking families. With the thought of getting employment soon, they all had cheerful expressions, secretly determined that no matter how tough, they would work hard for their children and their families. What was the big fuss about men and women practicing martial arts together? It wasn’t just them who would lose face; many villagers were joining them as well. In any event, even the Lin Family servants, including the Lins themselves, were training too.
