Quick wear: She has turned over the big guys from all walks of life

Chapter 1303 Famine and Natural Disaster 462

If we divide the family property and leave some money for them, how can we not be able to survive?

Mingyi felt heartache and had a headache.

How to accommodate so many people?

Two hundred jobs is not enough.

Butler Luo saw her dilemma. There were too many people and only a certain number could be arranged at the moment. With more than 2,000 people waiting to be assigned jobs, it was obviously impossible for a newly developed wool workshop to provide support to all of them.

"Young lady, can you help me with something?"

His almost pleading voice brought back Ming Yi, who was heartbroken and distracted. "Butler Luo, no matter how hard it is, we will not ignore them. But we can only arrange for 200 people at present. Others who are willing can be recalled to Fucheng and rent a big house to settle them temporarily, or sent to the manor for a while. When the colored glaze I have is produced, the workshop will need more people, and we should be able to arrange some people by then."

Mingyi's eyes were full of contemplation, and he asked again: "How many manors does the palace have in Fucheng?"

"Three big manors and eight small manors." Butler Luo told the truth, not daring to hide anything for fear of delaying her work.

Miss Cheng was obviously making plans for the soldiers. The royal palace only had eleven manors purchased in the city, no more.

The entire Fucheng is neither big nor small; it is a city in an important frontier area and cannot be compared with the provincial capital.

"How many people can be accommodated in eleven manors?"

After she asked, Steward Luo weighed it in his mind and said, "A large manor can accommodate 300 people, and three large manors can accommodate 900 people. A small manor can only accommodate about 100 to 200 people. They can be accommodated, and they don't have to worry about food and drink. Each manor has a certain amount of food stored."

"Then you can stay at the manor first. You can personally select two hundred people to work in the wool workshop. You can discuss the following matters with Madam Rong and Madam Xiangyu."

"Thank you, young lady. I'll go right away." Butler Luo nodded excitedly.

It's rare to see an old man so excited.

Mingyi understood and respected that Chaosheng was lucky to have a loyal master, a steward who was considerate of his servants and could see the suffering of the common people and the hardships of retired soldiers.

"Two hundred people need to be in place as soon as possible." Seeing how excited Butler Luo was, Mingyi mentioned it.

Butler Luo nodded and said, "Don't worry, it won't delay the wool workshop."

"Then go and get busy." He waved his hand and sent the man away.

"Yes, the slave will leave."

Butler Luo's emotions fluctuated greatly, with gratitude, joy and excitement intertwined; his legs were weak when he walked out of Tao Yiyuan, and his hands hanging by his sides were shaking uncontrollably.

Five days later.

The first batch of disabled retired soldiers arrived in Fucheng. Steward Luo, along with a dozen guards and two stewards, went to meet them in person. They settled them on the farm and selected two hundred honest and hardworking people from them and sent them to the wool workshop.

As for the families of the selected soldiers, they were settled on the farm and their families would be picked up after arrangements were made for the men to work in the wool workshops.

Butler Luo led two hundred people into the city and went straight to the wool workshop.

Since only the northern part of Fucheng is relatively desolate, the wool workshop and the glass workshop were built in this area; the wool workshop currently covers an area of ​​three acres, including housing for employees.

There are rows of small blue brick bungalows, without too much decoration, and no buildings with various symbolic meanings to show one's status; according to Mingyi's requirements, everything is based on reality, with the wool workshop and the houses facing each other from a distance, and a drying shed in the middle.

Arriving at the wool workshop, Rong Mama and Yu Xiangyu had been waiting for a long time. "Butler Luo."

The two saw Butler Luo and his men coming over and stepped forward to greet them. "Are they the ones you chose?"

"That's right. They are both responsible and capable people. The two maids, please take some time to make arrangements." Butler Luo looked at the two of them with a smile. The gratitude and expectation that unintentionally revealed in his eyes made both Madam Rong and Yu Xiangyu stunned for a few breaths.

Quickly regaining her composure, Yu Xiangyu looked at the two hundred wounded soldiers. They were ragged and emaciated; although they were in a state of disgrace, they tried their best to keep themselves clean. She was satisfied with such people who loved cleanliness.

"The master has instructed that they will be arranged to work in the workshop when they arrive. We will arrange their accommodation. If they have families, they can report to me. I will allocate housing based on whether they have started a family or not."

After hearing this, the two hundred disabled soldiers said nothing, but just stared at Yu Xiangyu and Rong Mama; they could tell at a glance that they were the housekeepers from wealthy families, with a dignified demeanor and capable actions.

"That's good. I'll leave them to you. Please make sure they are settled. I have to go back and report the progress to the young lady."

"Okay." Madam Rong said concisely.

Yu Xiangyu echoed, "Leave the people to us, and you can rest assured. We all know that they fought for the country on the battlefield before. As long as they behave themselves and work diligently, the master will never treat them unfairly."

These words were from the heart of Butler Anluo, and they were also meant to tell the two hundred soldiers who had just arrived; if they worked hard and did not harbor any unrealistic thoughts, their master would make their lives better and better.

Butler Luo was relieved. "Then I'll trouble you."

"It's my duty." Nanny Rong and Nanny Yu nodded in unison.

Butler Luo looked at them with gratitude, then turned to look at the group of people behind him.

  "I respect you all very much. You should work hard and don't let me down." It was difficult for disabled people in ancient times to find jobs. Why did people have to hire disabled people when they had people with good hands and feet to hire?

Using disabled people means slowing down progress and also means carrying certain risks.

Which merchant is willing to take this risk and slow down the progress?

Therefore, Butler Luo admired Miss Cheng's courage and character very much. He was far beyond her level.

"Here!"

Two hundred people, holding endless hope, spoke at the same time, and their voices were loud and clear.

Butler Luo was pleased and told them to do their best and bring their families over after settling down so that the family could be reunited. After several instructions, he left because there was really nothing more to say.

Madam Rong and Yu Xiangyu listened patiently until Butler Luo left. Then they divided the work and began to record the identity information of these people; those who were married were written into one booklet, and those who were not married were written into another booklet. After making the statistics, they allocated housing for them.

Those who are married will be allocated a two-bedroom apartment, while those who are not married will live in a dormitory.

"For those who have not been allocated separate housing, don't worry. The housing problem is only temporary. If any of you have made achievements, those who have families can get a three-bedroom house, and those who have not can live alone in a one-bedroom house."

The soldiers were very satisfied with having a place to live. Not only could they have enough food and clothing, but they also had a brick and tile house to live in. What else could they be dissatisfied with? They were very satisfied.

"Thank you, both ladies."

"Thank you for taking care of us, ladies."

The soldiers began to express their gratitude one after another. They saw the two maids busying around. They were grateful for their kindness and at the same time developed a great liking and curiosity towards the masters they mentioned.
