Chapter 370
Ye Xiuwen and Ye Xiujin led the two children into the ancestral hall together.

Outside the ancestral hall is a large courtyard. Fourth Aunt Ye accompanied Yin Tao and sister-in-law to wander around, telling them that when there are important events on weekdays, people from the clan come here to gather and discuss.

Pointing to the big house next to the ancestral hall, he said: "This is the house where the patriarch lives. It is said that your family paid money to repair it."

Yin Tao knew about this matter, and she sighed: "Grandfather and the others have also paid a lot for the prosperity of the family."

Yang Qinyun didn't know much about the past of the Ye family at first, but on the way the uncle talked about the past, and after the past few days, she also understood a lot, and she also had a sense of responsibility to start a family.

On the other side of the ancestral hall is still a big house, and the plaque hanging at the door says Ye's private school.

It is very quiet here, almost no one walks through this door, it seems that the Ye family is very interested in the education of the family children.

Then came the most profitable business in Yejia Town: silk.

In addition to raising silkworms themselves, the Ye family also collects silkworm cocoons from nearby farmers, weaves them into silk and satin, and then sells them to various places.

As far as the money given by the capital is to support Yejia Town at the beginning, the later development actually has little to do with the capital.

The fourth aunt led Yin Tao and Yang Qinyun in, where the division of labor was very detailed, collecting silkworm cocoons, storing, boiling raw silk, dyeing silk, and reeling silk.

And the last courtyard is for silk weaving and brocade weaving.

The brightly colored brocades are gradually formed under the hands of these weaver girls, and then sold all over the place.

Both Yin Tao and Yang Qinyun were stunned. Yin Tao was fine. She had a textile workshop and often went to inspect it, but Yang Qinyun had never seen it before.

Ever since she was a child, Yang Qinyun has hardly been out of the backyard, and her biggest struggle is not getting married.

Later, God opened his eyes and finally waited for Ye Xiujin to marry her. The sisters in the family even laughed at her, saying that the Ye family had a weak foundation and she used to be a stepmother. She is a powerful figure like a tigress, and her future days will be so sad.

But who would have thought that just after she got married, Yin Tao handed over all the powers of housekeeping to her, and never asked her how to manage the house.

There are two other children who are also very obedient, so don't worry about it at all.

What satisfied her the most was that she had seen a lot when she arrived at the Ye family, especially that there was no rule in the Ye family that women should not show their faces at will.

The siblings have to sleep until they wake up naturally every day. Although she wants the housekeeper to wake up early, she doesn't have her mother-in-law to press her down to set the rules.

In short, Yang Qinyun felt that her life was very comfortable.

Seeing that Yang Qinyun liked it very much, Yin Tao smiled and said: "If you like it, we will also set up a workshop, and then sell the silk to several neighboring countries."

Yang Qinyun blinked her eyes, and then asked: "Are you asking me to participate?"

"If you like it, you can take out a sum of money, and you don't have to worry about it, just wait for the dividends. When you go back later, you will write a letter back to Beijing and ask someone to do it."

Fourth Aunt Ye also understood, and said with a smile: "Where is it necessary to transfer people from the capital? Isn't there a ready-made candidate here?"

"Who?"

"Grandpa Zhou, he was originally helping the second master. He is good-looking and good at doing business. He also married the daughter of the Ye family. He can be regarded as the son-in-law of the Ye family. This can also be regarded as helping his own family."

Yin Tao thought about it in her mind, and nodded, but she was not familiar with Uncle Zhou, so she had to observe and observe. It would be best if he did a few things first to see if he could be used.

Then she saw that Fourth Aunt Ye actually had something to say, Yin Tao probably guessed that she wanted to recommend her son.

But doing business is not so simple, and the amount of funds will increase in the future. If someone can't control his greed, his family will not be easy to punish.

After thinking about it, he said to Aunt Ye: "If the fourth uncle becomes the patriarch, the fourth brother will probably help the fourth uncle handle the affairs of the clan. Then the fifth brother's affairs will definitely be arranged by the eldest brother and Ah Wen."

After listening to Yin Tao's words, Fourth Aunt Ye smiled very happily. What she wanted was Yin Tao's words, as long as her two sons had arrangements.

If the fourth child helps to deal with the affairs of the clan, then he will be the next clan leader.

Yang Qinyun saw her at the side, and she admired how her younger brother and sister spoke happily about Fourth Aunt Ye in just one sentence. It seemed that she still had too much to learn.

The people in the ancestral hall hadn't come out yet, but a group of officials rushed over.

Yin Tao and the others stood talking at the entrance of the silk weaving workshop, and they were immediately attracted by the group of people.

Because they stood out of the way, those people didn't notice it.

Some subordinates went to report to the entrance of the ancestral hall. After a while, Ye Xiuwen came out, but the others and Ye Xiujin did not come out.

As soon as Ye Xiuwen came out, he glanced around and saw that Yin Tao and the others were standing far away, so he nodded and looked at the officials who hurried forward to see the salute, Ye Xiuwen also returned the salute.

Yin Tao and the others watched Ye Xiuwen greet those people from a distance, and then they left with the group. Before leaving, they sent someone over to talk to Yin Tao, and he followed the judge and the county magistrate to the county for dinner. Xi, let the family not worry.

After the people left, the negotiation in the ancestral hall was over soon, probably because the patriarch was waiting for the backer and didn't come, but someone came to respectfully invite Ye Xiuwen to the banquet.

After Ye Xiujin and the others came out, they saw that the yard was full of people, so they announced the decision to split the sect in public.

The Ye family members are divided into two, and Uncle Ye is the new patriarch. The old patriarch wants to give up the ancestral hall and old house, and take his clansmen out to build the ancestral hall and old house by himself.

Anyway, they have a lot of money in their hands, so they can't help it.

On the contrary, the silk workshop in Yejia Town was torn apart for a long time, and finally it was divided into two parts, but the place still belonged to Fourth Uncle Ye and the others.

Some are happy and some are sad, but Ye Xiuwen and others are too strong, even if he leaves, Ye Xiujin will not give an inch, and this seemingly gentle scholar speaks with reason and evidence, and his voice is not loud, but he can always speak in a way that people can't understand. refute.

Of course, the clansmen don't need to move, they only need to build their ancestral halls, and the old patriarchs have to move out of their old houses.

But a dramatic scene happened, no one wanted to follow the old patriarch, and asked to stay.

Who is willing to go out with the old patriarch to build another ancestral hall?
Besides, this Ye Xiuwen is Lord Marquis, they split up with him only because they were out of their minds.

The old patriarch was so angry that he fainted on the spot, and the family hurriedly carried him back.

But that old house only gave them a month to move out.

They were all from the Ye family, and Ye Xiujin and Fourth Uncle Ye couldn't do too much, so, except for the few families who treated the Ye brothers the most, the rest stayed.

Back home, after hearing the whole story, Yin Tao was overjoyed, this is to get rid of the old patriarch, sure enough, Feng Shui turns!
