“Yes.” Uncle Fu quickly replied after writing it down.
“Also, starting from tomorrow, we will expand our house and build a workshop. 1 will have a book to record the materials, labor, and so on.” Lin Xiaoyue looked at Zhao Fu. “I’ll leave this to you.”
“Yes, Miss!” Zhao Fu replied happily.
She trusted him!
“Get undergarments, outerwear, shoes, and socks for the servants, we will buy fabric for two sets per person. The inner clothes will be made of cotton cloth, and the outer clothes are made of coarse cloth.”
Two sets of cotton-padded winter clothes for each person. Five sets of thin quilts, and mattresses.”
Zhao Fu and Zhao Shanshan were both shocked.
Five sets of bedding? Did that mean they were going to have five rooms?
Could they live separately in the future? Moreover, even Dabao had his own room?
Lin Xiaoyue ignored the two of them and continued, “every servant will get two sets of summer clothes, three pairs of shoes and socks, and one set of winter clothes per person every year. The bedding is changed every three years.”
“We’ll make one set of clothes for one person each month. Arrange for someone to take their measurements.”
“Yes!” Zhao Fu quickly agreed.
“Next, five oil lamps and ten catties of lamp oil. The servants’ rooms will get one oil lamp with two catties of lamp oil every month.”
“My family’s rooms also get two catties of lamp oil every month.”
“Yes!” Zhao Fu was pleasantly surprised and quickly replied.
“For the meals at home, each servant can have one and a half catties of rice and noodles per day. There will be two meat dishes for lunch and dinner, and six vegetarian dishes at most.”
“My family will have fine rice and fine flour for our meals. The meal should be light in the morning. There should be at least three meat dishes for lunch and dinner, and at most six vegetarian dishes.”
“Yes!” Zhao Fu was already pleasantly surprised to have meat dishes.
“As for the monthly allowance…”
Zhao Fu and Zhao Shanshan froze.
“This month has only started a few days ago. You don’t have money on hand, so you can use the money I gave you to buy whatever you need.”
“Thank you, Miss!” Zhao Fu said excitedly.
Lin Xiaoyue waved her hand.
After some thought, she took out 100 silver notes from her pocket.
“Starting from tomorrow, the expenses of repairing the house and buying materials will be quite high. Also, when they officially start work, there will be more people eating at home, and there will be a lot more expenses.”
Zhao Fu stepped forward to receive the banknotes.
She had given him 200 taels of silver. She really trusted him!
Lin Xiaoyue thought for a moment and looked at Zhao Shanshan.
“Shanshan, go and call your eldest brother and second brother over. 1 have something to tell them.”
“Yes, Miss!” Zhao Shanshan hurried over.
Lin Xiaoyue told Zhao Fu about the arrangements, and then Zhao Shanshan brought Zhao Kang and Zhao Qiang over.
“Miss!” The three of them bowed to Lin Xiaoyue.
Lin Xiaoyue nodded.
“The two of you will come to town with Shanshan and me later. Bring the list and money to buy some things.”
“Yes!”
Lin Xiaoyue nodded and asked Zhao Kang to set up the ox-cart and pack the cold cakes.
Zhao Fu handed the matter over to Zhao Qiang.
After a while, Lin Xiaoyue brought Zhao Shanshan onto the ox-cart.
Zhao Kang and Zhao Qiang rode the ox, and the four of them went to town together.
After arriving in town, Lin Xiaoyue first went to Liu Shi’s Eatery to deliver the cold cakes, then asked the two of them to ride to the ox and horse market.
Now that there were many people in the family and she had a manor in her hands, one ox-cart was not enough for the family.
Li Xiao’s horse was for his own use. She did not know how to ride a horse, so she might as well buy another carriage.
Coincidentally, they were going to build a house again. After buying a carriage, they could use it to transport the bricks.
Having money in hand was convenient. After choosing a horse and bargaining with the seller, she could bring the carriage home.
Then, the four of them split into two groups.
Zhao Qiang rode the ox-cart alone while Zhao Kang rode the horse carriage, bringing Lin Xiaoyue and Zhao Shanshan to the shops in town to purchase goods.
Lin Xiaoyue sat in the carriage and pointed the way to Zhao Kang. At the same time, she introduced the area to Zhao Kang and Zhao Shanshan.
After they arrived at the shops, she introduced Zhao Qiang and Zhao Kang to the shop owners.
This was the only time she would come with them. In the future, she would arrange for the two of them to do the shopping.
This time, she brought them along to show them the way and what to do.
Zhao Kang and Zhao Qiang were very touched. They felt that their Miss treated them well!
By the time they finished shopping, it was already late.
Lin Xiaoyue then returned to the eatery, picked up Lin Xiaozhi, and brought the group back to Daishi Village.
Back home, Lin Xiaoyue realized that Li Xiao and Hei Gang had returned..
