Su Fengmao did not know his daughter had told the Taos about porcelain-making methods. Therefore, he did not understand what Tao Eryong meant when he said his elder brother had finally burned it.

However, Su Binglan immediately understood what Tao Eryong said. Her eyes lit up, asking, “Did he finally make the porcelain I told you about?”

There was a significant difference between porcelain and clay pots. Their prices were not even on the same level, as porcelain looked more exquisite and luxurious.

If Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian used porcelain to store wine, they could sell it to the capital at high prices to earn money from its people.

Tao Eryong tried to calm his breathing and said, “Yes, Dayong has been thinking about it and finally completed it. I was so excited that I hurried over to tell you, Miss Su.”

Su Fengmao saw Tao Eryong panting from running so far and hurriedly poured him a glass of water. “Here, have some.”

Indeed, Tao Eryong’s mouth was dry from running so far. After all, he had rushed over to tell Su Binglan about the good news because he was anxious.

He took the bowl Su Fengmao handed him and gulped the water down. Afterward, Tao Erying suddenly recalled the water’s aftertaste and thought it differed from the water he drank at home.

He felt the one he had just drank was more refreshing, causing all his fatigue to vanish instantly. His breathing also became smoother, and he felt like he had regained all his strength after being exhausted.

Tao Eryong was puzzled. He did not know if it was a psychological effect, but he felt Su Binglan’s water was incredibly delicious. He wanted to drink another bowl but was too embarrassed to ask.

Soon after, they started discussing serious matters.

“Ever since you told us the difference between porcelain and clay, my brother constantly thought about how to make it, especially whenever he finished working.

“He first burned it according to your instructions, but the materials he burned either shattered or did not get the right amount of heat. My big brother couldn’t stop thinking about it, but he finally succeeded. The porcelain bottle he made is gorgeous.” Tao Eryong’s eyes lit up as he spoke.

Ads by Pubfuture The porcelain bottle was stunning and had a luster that entirely differed from the jars and wine bottles the Taos used to make. It was smooth to the touch. Of course, the Taos dared not move the porcelain bottle, fearing they would break it.

Tao Eryong, his elder brother, and his parents were too excited. Mr. and Mrs. Tao wanted to tell Su Binglan the good news at the first possible moment, so Tao Eryong volunteered to do it.

Su Binglan was genuinely thrilled as well. She stood up and said, “You didn’t take the oxcart here?”

Tao Eryong was stunned when he heard that. “Huh?”

After his momentary shock, he returned to his senses and scratched the back of his head embarrassedly. “I-I forgot we had one.”

He was in such a rush to tell Su Binglan about the porcelain that he forgot to ride the oxcart over. The Taos had bought an oxcart some time ago because they had to transport their wine bottles and jars to Su Teng Village.

Since it was so inconvenient to transport their goods in the past, Tao Zhenggang and his wife spent ten silver taels on buying an ox and paying a carpenter to make them a cart.

When Su Binglan discovered this, she immediately reimbursed the Taos. Tao Zhenggang and his wife refused her money then, saying they had invested in an oxcart and could not have the nerve to let Su Binglan spend more money on them.

Later, Su Binglan explained what reimbursement was. In any case, she had taken responsibility for the payment but gave the oxcart to the Taos. They were genuinely grateful to Su Binglan.

The Taos did not know what to do to repay Su Binglan’s kindness and could only work harder for her. Meanwhile, Tao Dayong only thought about ways to make more beautiful products to help Su Binglan.

Su Binglan smiled when she looked at Tao Eryong’s honest appearance. @@novelbin@@

Su Fengmao said, “He’s such an honest kid and was probably in a hurry to tell you the excellent news, Binglan.”

He finally understood what the young man meant and became happy. After all, using an exquisite bottle for the wine would make it look more expensive.

Su Binglan nodded and said smilingly, “How about I go to your house to see what your brother made? You can take my carriage back with me.”

Su Fengmao had become interested in the topic, so he said, “Daughter, I want to go and take a look too.” He looked at his daughter with eager eyes.

Su Binglan nodded. “All right, let’s bring Uncle Fengzhang and Cousin Wenxian along, too.”

‘The carriage was big enough to fit everyone, anyway.’

Su Fengmao happily grinned because he knew his daughter would agree. ‘My daughter is so easy to talk to and has a good temperament.’

Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian were still busy filling jars and bottles with wine when Su Binglan went to their house in Willow Village to call them.

The wine they had made before was in a big pot. If they wanted to sell wine, it would be better to sell loose ones. After all, they could just scoop it directly from the big pot.

Still, they had to put the wine into jars and bottles to sell it outside. The father-son duo initially thought they had enough bottles, but Su Binglan got the Taos to make more. Therefore, the duo also put wine into bottles.

Although they did not understand Su Binglan’s specific arrangements, they knew they were right and would simply follow them. Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian were thrilled when they saw Su Binglan.

They thought she had come to tell them she was finally about to open the winery. After all, the construction team had already built the winery, and Su Binglan could open it whenever she was ready.

Su Binglan looked at her eldest uncle and cousin’s bright eyes and could guess their thoughts. She smiled, saying, “Uncle Fengzhang, Cousin Wenxian, I came looking for you to bring you to Willow Village. The Taos have made something cool. We should go and look.”

The father-son duo quickly agreed when they heard that. They also wanted to see what it looked like. After all, it was a good thing to store wine in. The duo tidied up and locked their house door before following Su Binglan into the carriage.

Su Wenxian sat inside and could not help but ask, “When will we open the winery, Cousin Binglan?”

He recalled Su Binglan saying she would immediately open the winery after Su Fengchen and Miao Zhizhi’s wedding.

She knew Su Wenxian was excited and said smilingly, “How about we start hiring people tomorrow? We’ll set up the winery afterward.”

Su Fengzhang happily slapped his thigh when he heard that. “That’s great! I’ll tell everyone this afternoon when we return to the village.”

Su Wenxian also smiled happily.

Su Binglan added, “This time, we’re hiring only men to work at the winery. It doesn’t matter which village they’re from, so men from all over can come and work there.”

Su Fengmao listened on the sidelines and knew he did not have to worry about anything since Su Binglan would leave his eldest brother and nephew to manage the winery.

Still, he was slightly puzzled, asking, “Binglan, won’t you prioritize our villagers?”

Su Fengmao recalled hiring only their own villagers to work at the tofu factory. The embroidery shop also prioritized the Su Teng Villagers, so he knew his daughter wanted to help them first.

Moreover, the family hired the Su Teng villagers to work at the embroidery shop because they knew them well. After all, the family was unfamiliar with people from other villages, especially those living further away from Su Teng Village.

Su Binglan had also thought of prioritizing the people from her village when opening the winery. However, after some consideration, she still felt she could not just prioritize her village.

She said, “It’ll be easier for problems to arise if we always do that. Our villagers will slack off. We’ll mainly hire people based on their abilities and morals for the winery. Those with these qualities will have a likelier chance of getting the job.’

Su Fengzhang had seen the world and knew many things. He agreed with his niece, saying, “Your thoughts are excellent, Binglan. If that’s the case, everyone will perform well if they want to work at the winery.

“The typically lazy ones will become more diligent, and the rest who don’t treat their parents well will become more filial. As time goes by, a better atmosphere will form among the villages. Still, there’s always room for improvement.

“The atmosphere in Willow Village and Stone Village is also improving, not to mention ours. Everyone knows the tofu factory and embroidery shop only hire those with good characteristics.

“If anyone causes problems and gets caught, they will get fired. That’s why everyone is more cautious. Besides, Binglan’s embroidery shop and tofu factory still hire people. Everyone is eyeing these positions.”

‘Who wouldn’t eye the potential salary and bonus they could receive monthly?’

Although Su Fengzhang was usually busy brewing wine, he paid attention to the matters in the village and the tofu factory. He also wanted to do something to help his niece.

‘Who knows what would’ve happened to my family if it weren’t for my niece?’

Ads by Pubfuture Su Fengzhang was still afraid whenever he thought of his wife’s past physical condition. He was pleased now that Ding Wan was happily working at the embroidery shop, and he and Su Wenxian could make wine.

Su Fengmao understood what his daughter meant with his eldest brother’s analysis. “Indeed, it’s good. That way, no one will compare their food and clothing. Instead, they will compare their morals.”@@novelbin@@

Su Binglan looked at Su Fengzhang and smiled lightly. “You understood it more than my father.”

She had a similar thought. Since Su Fengzhang had helped her explain things, she did not speak further. Also, her father would become anxious if he did not understand it.

When Tao Eryong heard these words, his lips moved, and he looked up as if he wanted to say something. However, he was not sure if he should say it. He felt speaking nonsense in front of Su Binglan was inappropriate.

Su Wenxian, sitting beside Tao Eryong, noticed the latter’s expression and asked, “Do you have something to add, Eryong?”

Tao Eryong raised his head, not knowing if he should say it.

Su Fengmao got impatient and said, “If you have anything to say, you can say it. Then it’ll be easier for us to consider things because of your input.”

Tao Eryong mustered his courage and said, “A few families from our village work in the embroidery shop. I heard their families are more harmonious than before.

“Many still want to work there, so they became more dutiful to their parents. They also get along much better with their siblings. They used to quarrel with each other, but that’s all.

“I once accidentally overheard the villagers discussing it. They said some people are pretending now, but some said it would be good if they could pretend for a lifetime. If that’s the case, they can at least support their elders.”

Quite a few people in Willow Village did not treat their parents well. Some even intended to kick their parents out of their homes and abandon them. Some families had split up and did not care about their parents. They were even calculative.

The atmosphere in a few villages had changed, and everyone seemed more serious about who was more filial. Most who lived with their parents would bring delicious food to them, and the passers-by would see it.

Plus, the constantly quarreling families seemed to have stopped. Tao Eryong thought it was strange at first. Still, his mother later explained that Su Binglan’s tofu factory and embroidery shop only hired those who were respectful to their parents and had a good family background.

Therefore, everyone was trying to perform well.

Su Fengmao laughed when he heard that. “That’s good. Daughter, you’ve figured out a way to make that happen.”

Su Binglan shook her head. “That’s not it. My employees must have good moral character. That’s my requirement. It’s just that many want to work, so they have to perform well. Nonetheless, this is a good thing.”

To put it bluntly, it was because her embroidery shop and tofu factory offered higher wages and bonuses, which were very tempting. If everyone wanted to work in the tofu factory, they could only improve themselves.

Su Fengzhang said, “Still, what Eryong said is correct. It’ll be best if people can be dutiful to their parents, love their siblings, and care for their families. Every village will improve if everyone is like that.”

He knew the people from other villages could not compare to Su Teng Village’s culture. He had also heard of some people being selfish. They did not care about their parents or siblings.

Although Su Fengzhang could not stand such things, he knew too many people had it hard. He could only care for his family and not get involved in other people’s affairs.

‘Binglan has helped many people now.’ Su Fengzhang’s heart felt warm when he thought about it.

He became more energized and felt he had to manage the winery well for his niece so she would have the strength to do other things. Su Fengzhang had seen the world and always thought his niece had more power and ability than anyone else.

It was easy for people to get influenced, and it was best to do it positively.

Su Binglan fell into profound thought when she heard her eldest uncle’s words. She knew she had to strengthen herself to help more people. ‘Sometimes, no help can be a form of help, too.’

Then she thought of another rule for the tofu factory and embroidery shop. She would promote those with solid performances and good moral characteristics into managers.

After promoting these employees to managers, she would pay them a higher salary and bonus than ordinary employees.

Su Fengmao sighed, “You’re right, Binglan. A person’s ability and characteristics matter most when hiring people for the winery.”

The group chatted in the carriage and soon arrived at Su’s Pottery Workshop in Willow Village. Su Binglan looked at the workshop and thought it was pretty small.

‘I’ll probably expand the winery after opening it.’

The Taos could make jars, pots, and bottles before the winery opened. However, they would need more tools once the winery’s business expanded. Then they would probably need to hire more people to work at the pottery workshop when that time came..

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

An expanded version of the workshop appeared in Su Binglan’s mind. That way, they could make more tools when the pottery workshop grew.

Not only could they use their equipment for the winery, but they could also sell them to people who needed them.

The Taos could use porcelain and make tea sets or various beautiful cups. However, the technology in this era was limited, and Su Binglan did not know if she could make it.

It was better to improve some things based on this era. Even if Su Binglan wanted to forge something, she could only do it step by step.

She was in the place the Taos made their pottery, and it was pretty dangerous. The villagers did not let the children approach the workshop, fearing they would bump into the furnace and get burned. Therefore, the workshop was relatively quiet.

The workshop’s thick door was usually closed, and outsiders would not enter, but since Tao Eryong had opened it, the group could follow him in. Although it was freezing outside, everyone felt a heat wave when they entered.

Inside, Tao Zhenggang, Miss Li, and Tao Dayong were busy. The trio had carefully placed the porcelain Tao Dayong had just made on the table.

When Su Binglan entered, she saw the bottles on the shelves at a glance. Of course, the shiny bottle was the most attention-grabbing one. She knew it was unique to everything else at a glance.

The others were earthenware, but the shiny one was porcelain.

Ads by Pubfuture She walked over and took the bottle down before looking at it.

Tao Eryong said, “That’s the one my big brother made.”

Even Su Fengmao and the others saw the bottle from afar and went to circle it. Everyone had shocked expressions on their faces.

That bottle is gorgeous! It’s different from the others.” Su Wenxian reached out and touched it delicately. He moved gently, fearing he might break it. He knew they should store their best wine in such an exquisite bottle.

That way, the customers would know the wine was high quality just by the bottle’s unique look.

“Wow, it really is possible to make such an exquisite bottle,” Su Fengmao said emotionally, “Your big brother is a genius, Eryong!”

Tao Eryong chuckled. He agreed that his big brother was indeed brilliant. Tao Eryong also knew he was not as hardworking as his elder brother. However, he would also do things in a down-to-earth manner.

Su Fengzhang looked at the bottle with a stunned expression. “That’s an excellent piece of porcelain. Only high-ranking officials and nobles can afford to use such a thing.”

Su Binglan asked, “Uncle Fengzhang, did you see patterns on that porcelain you saw?”

After all, she had never seen porcelain in a place like Tenghe Town.

Su Fengzhang was stunned. “Patterns? Can these things have patterns? I’ve never seen any porcelain with patterns since I’ve only been to the capital once to send Ding Wan to a doctor.

“The doctor had a vase in his house. It was very smooth, but there were no patterns. Now I wonder whether or not there were patterns on it.”

‘If we could make teacups with porcelain, it would look good even without patterns. Still, a porcelain wine bottle with patterns on it would look incredible. Also, we can advertise our winery if we can put words on our porcelain bottles.’

It would be more beautiful if they could engrave or paint Su’s Wine on their bottles instead of using stickers.

Nonetheless, Su Fengzhang knew his niece would not ask such a question for no reason. ‘It must be because I could’ve seen patterns on the vase.’@@novelbin@@

He also reached out and touched the bottle.

‘It’s so smooth, so how can we draw or paint on it? We can’t engrave it either. Even if we painted on it, won’t it fade after washing? If my hands were sweaty, I would wipe away the painting, too.

‘If that were the case, I can’t touch the bottle either. Wait that can’t be.’ Su Fengzhang was perplexed.

Su Binglan said, “There can’t be patterns on porcelain, but we can make a permanent one that can’t get erased or washed away.”

She needed pomelo or something else to make a glaze. ‘I can search for some natural substances and fuse them to make a glaze with fruit and ash. Then the porcelain’s color will change after dipping it in the glaze.’

She could also use the glaze to draw permanent patterns onto the porcelain bottle.

“There’s such a method?” Su Fengzhang and Su Fengmao looked at Su Binglan curiously.

Su Wenxian was even more excited. He could not help but say, “If we can make such patterns, we can sell the bottle for a lot of money. This bottle alone should be worth a lot.”

Ads by Pubfuture

Su Binglan smiled. “That’s right. In that case, we can also sell bottles to people from other places. Then we need to hire more people to work at the winery and pottery workshop.”

Su Fengzhang happily added, “Yeah, the more people we hire, the more people we’ll help.”

Everyone’s families’ lives would improve if they had jobs and could earn money. That was the most apparent reason for hiring more workers.

Tao Eryong was listening on the sidelines and was stunned. ‘We can make such an exquisite bottle even more beautiful with patterns? Will the patterns also be permanent? I’ve never heard of such a thing.’

Still, he believed whatever Su Binglan said.

She asked, “Where are your big brother and parents?”

She felt Tao Dayong was more talented in this area and might figure it out if she explained things to him. She knew the bottles would look better, even with simple patterns. Then they would stand out more amongst other porcelain items in the market.

Su Binglan could imagine how valuable these things would be if she sold them.

Her heart felt warm when she thought of these things.

“Oh, my parents and big brother are making more of these at the furnace.” Tao Eryong brought them to the other side of the pottery workshop.

The temperature inside was even higher because of the pine wood fire burning in the furnace.

Meanwhile, Tao Zhenggang and the others were busy. The whole family was very excited because Tao Dayong had made the bottle Su Binglan needed. They could not stop smiling at that moment.

Tao Zhenggang and Madam Li were helping their son burn a few more of these porcelain bottles. They were so focused that they did not notice anyone coming in.

When Miss Li saw Su Binglan, she exclaimed excitedly, “Miss Su, you’re here!”

She typically restrained herself whenever she faced Su Binglan. However, she was thrilled that Su Binglan was here this time because her arrival meant there was bound to be good news.

Tao Dayong turned his head and looked at Su Binglan. He hurriedly stood up and placed his hands by his side. He did not know where to put them nor how to stand when facing her.

Su Binglan looked at the young man and smiled. “Don’t be nervous. I saw the bottle you made. It’s excellent. You’re very talented in this area..”

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Tao Dayong typically looked indifferent, but a smile immediately appeared on his face after Su Binglan praised him.

“Miss Su, you were the one who taught me the method of making porcelain, so that’s why I succeeded.”

Tao Dayong knew he would not have succeeded without Su Binglan’s guidance. He also knew what he was and was not capable of.

Nonetheless, he cherished his life even more because of his past sufferings.

After all, he had worked at the docks and almost died from exhaustion. Therefore, he made pottery without fear of hardship or fatigue.

He could not even sleep at night because he could only think of work. He was a person of great perseverance, continuing to make and study pottery.

Tao Dayong never felt discouraged, even if he failed. He also gained some experience and succeeded in making porcelain.

Miss Li felt dignified and delighted when Su Binglan praised her eldest son. ‘Dayong is such a good child. Who would dare say anything bad about him? His ex-wife used to despise him, and I hated that.’

However, her hatred disappeared after seeing her eldest son’s achievements. The Taos could live well now, no matter what, and Miss Li felt content. Now that her family was better off, she had been looking for a good wife for Tao She wanted the woman to be virtuous, considerate, and treat her son well. The villagers knew the Taos worked for Su Binglan and made a good living, so they were willing to give their daughters to the Tao brothers.

Ads by Pubfuture The Taos would accept if the other party were willing to give their daughters, but only if they were not problematic. Their decision to accept would depend on the potential bride’s characteristics.

Su Binglan said, “Don’t belittle yourself. You’re a talented young man, Dayong.”

She knew others might have failed even if she told them the porcelain-making methods. “Also, you’ve done very well. Have you ever considered painting patterns onto the bottle?”

Tao Dayong and his parents were stunned when they heard Su Binglan’s words. Tao Dayong widened his eyes and asked in a daze, “Can I paint patterns on porcelain

‘I’ve never heard of such a thing, but how do I do that?’ He thought about how to paint the patterns. However, he could not think of a way to do it without the paint rubbing off, even after racking his brains.

Su Binglan gave him time to think and let him use his imagination. After a while, she said, “Use a glaze. You can dip a paintbrush in it and then paint something onto the porcelain. After that, you can put it into the furnace, and the pattern will become permanent.

“It will be one with the bottle and won’t fade. Also, you can dip the porcelain into the glaze before baking it in the furnace to retain the color and be more beautiful.

When Tao Dayong heard this, he felt like a new world had opened. After all, he was passionate about these things. He asked curiously, “What is a glaze, Miss

“A glaze consists of a mixture of things. It’s an organic substance of soil, rocks, starch, glycerine, and other things,” Su Binglan answered simply.

However, she felt that Tao Dayong might not understand her jargon and added, “I’ll find these things later and mix them. You’ll know what I mean by then.”

She had been to the back of the mountain many times and knew it was like a treasure trove with countless things inside. She just needed to look for what she needed.

“Do you know how to draw or paint?”

Tao Dayong answered truthfully, “I don’t, but my brother knows how to draw, paint, and write.”

Tao Eryong had attended a private school to study for a few years when he was younger. He did not like reading then but enjoyed painting. However, there was no use for it then, and his work was average. Later, his family’s conditions worsened, and he could no longer attend private school.

In the past, Tao Zhenggang and Miss Li thought they would bring honor to their ancestors if their family could produce a scholar. Nonetheless, they now felt prideful to see their sons like this.

Moreover, it was more reassuring to be together as a family. After experiencing many things, Miss Li became more indifferent to her past. She only wanted her children to live well.

Meanwhile, Tao Eryong felt shy. “I only paint casually, Miss Su.”

After some thought, Su Binglan said to Su Wenxian, “Go to the carriage. I have a box with a brush, ink, paper, and an inkstone. Help me get them, will you?”

“All right, I’ll go right away.” Su Wenxian hurried to the carriage to bring in the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Su Binglan gestured for him to put it on the table, ground the ink on the inkstone, and handed it to Tao Eryong. “Draw something on the paper. Don’t be nervous. Just draw whatever you want.”

Tao Eryong was a little nervous, having never really learned to paint. Still, Tao

Dayong encouraged him, “Just draw as you used to when you were a kid, Little Brother.”

Ads by Pubfuture

He remembered his younger brother saying he wanted to be a famous artist when they were kids. That was because the teacher in the private school had a friend who was a well-known painter who could even earn money from it.

Tao Eryong only said that when he was still a kid and never repeated it later, but his brother remembered it.

“Hurry up,” Miss Li said anxiously, “Miss Su has ground the ink for you. Who else can receive such treatment?”

Tao Eryong looked at Su Binglan, who was currently looking at him with an encouraging smile. Then he mustered up his courage and picked up a brush to paint.

Although he only painted a rabbit, it looked vivid. Su Binglan nodded. “That’s good. You can draw more.”

Then he drew a pig. Su Binglan asked, “I noticed you’re only drawing animals. Why is that?”

Tao Eryong answered, “I always wanted to eat rabbit meat and pork as a kid, so

I would often draw rabbits and pigs.” His face turned red when he said this

Su Binglan did not laugh at him. Instead, she asked another question, “Then do you know how to draw flowers and birds?”

“Yes, I do,” Tao Eryong began drawing and painting as he spoke, and Su Binglan felt his art was decent.

“You can surely draw flowers and birds, so you will be in charge of painting the patterns onto the porcelain your big brother makes. I can also make examples for you to paint based on them.” Su Binglan believed Tao Eryong could replicate her designs with the skills he had.@@novelbin@@

Tao Eryong’s brush-holding hand trembled, and he could not believe what he had just heard. ‘Did Miss Su put me in charge of decorating her bottles?’

The thought of his paintings being on such exquisite bottles and being sold to others gave him indescribable excitement. He never expected to finally be able to use the drawing skills he had learned as a kid. He had a strange feeling at this moment.

“Can you write?”

“Yes.”

Su Binglan wrote the words ‘Su’s Fruit Wine’ and ‘Su’s Rice Wine’ on the paper, and Tao Eryong copied them beautifully. His ability to imitate was also impeccable.

Su Binglan had gorgeous handwriting. Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian would be astounded whenever they saw it. Meanwhile, Su Fengmao had a proud expression on his face..

Su Binglan was relieved when she saw that Tao Eryong could copy her writing. She said to him, “I’ll send over the glaze soon and explain things more clearly when the time comes for you to write and draw on the bottles.

“You will be in charge of writing, and Dayong will make the bottles. Of course, we’ll still need clay bottles, jars, and pots. I’ll think of how to buy the surrounding land in two days to expand the workshop. I’ll hire more workers then, but the core of our process will still belong to us.”

As for the method to make the glaze, only Su Binglan knew it. She had planned to keep that knowledge to herself for the time being.

After giving the family more instructions, she took two silver taels and gave them to Tao Dayong. The young man was stunned when he suddenly received the money from her.

He did not understand what was happening and dared not accept the money. After all, Su Binglan paid him well, and he had received more than two silver taels last month.

“Miss Su, this…” He started to speak incoherently.@@novelbin@@

“That’s your reward,” Su Binglan said directly, “You’ve researched the porcelain and succeeded in making it, even though I only told you the method. That’s why you deserve the two silver taels.

“If you work for me, I will reward you for your merits but apprehend you for your mistakes. You don’t have to worry about anything if you do your job well.”

The Taos did not expect Su Binglan to reward them. They were so grateful they did not know what to say.

The Su family returned to Su Teng Village shortly after, and Su Binglan went to the back of the mountain to look for what she needed to make a glaze. She only needed natural resources to make it.

However, she seemed to feel a summoning power whenever she went to the mountain. Perhaps it was because she was thinking about what she needed. It was as if something was guiding her in which direction to look, making it easier for her to find what she needed.

Ads by Pubfuture Su Binglan placed the things in her pocket dimension and then returned home. She could not be bothered to rest and instead went to draw the pottery workshop’s expansion plan.

It was already evening when she finished drawing. She looked at the sky and decided to go to Su Zhengde’s house. He and his grandson were swamped as they led their construction teams to build houses.

That was why they usually returned home in the evening. Thus, Su Binglan chose that time to visit them to discuss business.

Su Zhengde and Su Xueye were very busy because of the blizzard a few days ago. The snow was thick and heavy, causing many people’s unstable houses to collapse under pressure.

The villagers asked the duo to help with repairs, but some also wanted to take advantage of this time to quickly renovate their houses to survive the winter, making Su Zhengde and Su Xueye swamped these past few days.

The duo had just returned home when they saw Su Binglan. They became spirited again when they saw her. However, they were stunned when she told them about expanding the pottery workshop.

Su Zhengde thought his niece could always surprise him. It was evident that he knew how capable she was, yet she could still do more amazing things.

‘I was already shocked enough when she wanted to build the winery. Now she wants to expand the pottery workshop?’

“Binglan, why do you already want to expand the workshop?” Of course, he wanted to help her, but he did not understand why she needed to expand the workshop.

“I’ll start hiring people for the winery tomorrow. We’ll need equipment to make and sell wine soon, so the workshop will also need more workers. Also, the workshop’s jars and pots aren’t only for wine.

“We can also sell them to commoners and merchants for them to sell elsewhere. That’s why I want to expand the workshop.”

Su Binglan explained it simply, and the duo understood. Su Xueye even looked at her admiringly. ‘My aunt is so amazing!’

“Aunt Binglan, many of our workers also say you will hire people for the winery tomorrow morning. So it’s true after all?”

Su Binglan smiled. “Yes, it’s true. I want to start the winery early and enter the market before the New Year. Then the workers can earn wages and bonuses before the New Year celebrations. I want as many people as possible to have a good New Year.”

Su Zhengde knew his niece was always thoughtful, even though she was still young. She was also very considerate of others. He nodded. “Indeed, people are only willing to buy New Year’s goods if they have money.”

Even he, who had been busy for a year, looked forward to the New Year. He could finally relax during that celebration period.

It was also a time for relatives to walk around town and chat. Furthermore, everyone usually ate better food during the New Year. They were also more willing to eat things they usually could not bear to eat on regular days.

Su Zhengde was also looking forward to the new year. “The upcoming New Year’s celebrations will be especially lively and exciting.”

The main reason was that everyone had earned a good living, so they were probably more willing to buy good things.

Don’t worry, Binglan,” Su Zhengde said, “I just finished my work, so I’ll bring some people to expand the workshop for you.”

Su Xueye was busier than his grandfather. After all, he had made a name for himself. In the past, barely anyone trusted him to build houses because he was too young.

However, after seeing how excellent the tofu factory, embroidery shop, and staff dormitories were, everyone looked for him to renovate their homes. Many villagers even went to the staff dormitory to check it out and thought the structure was bizarre yet unique.

Still, they had to praise him for it. Therefore, Su Xueye built a good reputation among the people.

Su Binglan said a few words to the duo before heading home. Madam Zhou asked her to stay for dinner, but she politely declined. After all, she could not stay for dinner every time she visited to discuss business.

After dinner, Su Binglan told her father about the interviews she would do the following day. She had already explained the interview’s specific process to Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian.

She would need her uncle, cousin, and father’s help during tomorrow’s interviews.

After explaining the details to her father, she went to bed early because she wanted to wake up early the following day to conduct the interviews and hire people.

She remembered seeing the long queue before dawn when interviewing people for the embroidery shop. Hence, she predicted seeing many people showing up to apply for the winery job. She estimated that there would be a long line before dawn.

Su Binglan fell asleep almost immediately after lying down. Then she had a dream about Luo Jin’an the moment she fell asleep.

She saw him in armor again as the youth stood on the battlefield with the city gate behind him. Before him was an army of tens of thousands of men, but he stood there while his entire body exuded the aura of a thousand troops, blocking the enemies before him.

The opposing army’s commander looked at the youth blocking the way.. His expression changed when he recognized the youth, muttering, “That’s the Wei family’s commander of Chu City, a young War God and born Divine General!”

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The city gate behind the young man was dilapidated. The city had just experienced a tragic war, as many corpses were below the city wall.

The tens of thousands of soldiers before the youth thought they could quickly enter and occupy the city. However, the youth stood before the gate, exuding the aura of a one-man army that stopped them.

For some reason, the soldiers’ commander frowned when he saw the youth’s calm gaze. After all, the youth was not ordinary, and the enemy commander quickly realized that taking down Chu City would be tricky.

“I have tens of thousands of soldiers behind me, Young General Wei! Do you think you can stop us all by yourself?!” The commander shouted, “Do you think you can protect this city?!”

Wei Jin’an said coldly, “Won’t you only know the answer after you’ve tried it?”

His voice was frigid. Although it was not loud, it could make people shudder. The enemy commander knew how formidable the Wei family army was. He did not want to fight the young general, as the youth was legendary.

He knew Wei Jin’an had already made outstanding military achievements when he was only ten. Wei Jin’an’s reputation was terrifying.

However, according to the information the enemy commander had received, the Wei family army should not be at the city gate. Otherwise, he would not be the one sent to attack Chu City.

The enemy commander thundered, “If you know what’s good for you, you can leave this place and save your family’s life.

Wei Jin’an asked coldly, “It’s you who wants to save your own life, right?”

His words hit the nail on the head, causing the commander’s face to be pale and him unable to speak.

“If you know what’s good for you, you might save your and your army’s lives by leaving this place. Otherwise, you can die here if you insist on invading my great city’s territory.” Wei Jin’an’s words sounded extremely arrogant to the enemy.

Ads by Pubfuture The enemy commander was enraged, shouting, “Attack! Everyone, attack!” Then his tens of thousands of soldiers launched an attack on Wei Jin’an.

Meanwhile, the youth drew a line on the ground with a spear. The line signified that Wei Jin’an would defend it to his death, as he would not let the enemy cross it.

The scene instantly erupted into a battle. Countless people tried crossing the line Wei Jin’an had drawn, but they all died from his weapon. The youth held a spear in one of his hands and a sword in the other. He also had hidden weapons on him.

Wei Jin’an resembled the Grim Reaper, and no one could cross his drawn line.

The enemy troops charged in batches, and they lost their lives. Hundreds of people had died in a blink, as corpses littered the ground.

However, the youth’s armor was still clean. The blood on the ground was the enemies’, but their blood did not splash on his armor.

The enemy looked at him with fear and horror. They had only heard legends about the youth and knew he was formidable. Still, knowing was one thing, and seeing it was another.@@novelbin@@

Everyone was in shock and forgot how to react. Many felt fearful and no longer dared to approach Wei Jin’an.

“Charge!” The enemy commander shouted angrily. “That’s an order. Anyone who disobeys me will be beheaded.”

The commander thought it would be a great merit if he could kill the youth before him. It would also bring honor to his family. After all, the commander was one of the least valued disciples in his clan.

He had received news that Chu City would be easy to take down, so he got sent there to lead these troops to seize it. Moreover, he knew the city had just experienced a great battle, and only a few guards were around. That was why he wanted to kill the youth and occupy the city.

After threatening his own soldiers, they could only continue their attack, thinking of ways to kill Wei Jin’an.

It was a battle of attrition, and the commander smiled. He thought he could exhaust Wei Jin’an even if the soldiers failed to kill him. Then the commander could kill the youth and return home to claim all the credit.

More soldiers died as time passed, but the young man was still unyielding. Still, the commander would not suppress his pride in the slightest. It would not bend at all.

He looked at the corpses, and his face turned paler and paler. Then the commander decided to use a formation to attack the youth. “Form together!”

However, the youth still looked at the commander with his familiar cold gaze. Wei Jin’an’s gaze was horrifying, and it terrified the commander.

‘How can he still be so calm at this moment? For some reason, I feel like I’m looking at the Grim Reaper.’

Fear rose in the commander’s heart. However, after some thought, he remembered his strong martial arts skills. Moreover, the commander had two assassins protecting him.

The commander believed nothing would happen to him because his two assassins were martial arts masters.

His father was the one who had arranged for the assassins to protect him so that he could contribute to the family by conquering a city.

The two assassins had yet to move, and the commander believed they could kill the youth if they did. Even if the commander structured a formation, his soldiers were no match for Wei Jin’an.

The youth could also use any weapon with ease. Even an ordinary weapon could carry tremendous power in Wei Jin’an’s hand, and he could quickly brake the soldiers’ formation. Moreover, he had hidden weapons on him.

‘If I guessed correctly, his hidden weapon is powerful and seems to have come from the Gongsun family. The Gongsun family is helping the Weis.’

The commander saw no other way of defeating the youth. He became anxious since more and more of his people were dying. Although he cherished his life, he could not let too many of his men die.

Still, hundreds of his men had died, and even a round-robin battle could not do anything to the youth. The commander could only say to the two assassins beside him, “Kill him! Kill him now!”

However, one of the assassins said, “We’re responsible for protecting you.”

“Protecting me is pointless if you don’t kill that man,” the commander said anxiously, “I’ll only be fine if you kill him, so kill him now!”

Then one of them moved and jumped out to attack the youth at breakneck speed. The assassin’s figure resembled a ghost, and the soldiers could not see him.

The man was an assassin and was excellent at killing in one blow. However, Wei Jin’an neutralized the assassin’s killing move with ease. The assassin could not hurt him no matter what moves he used.

On the contrary, the youth’s strength was impeccable, using his spear to shake off the assassin.

Meanwhile, the other assassin stood before the commander, his eyes narrowing dangerously. “Interesting. He blocked my student’s killing move. That man has such power and self-defense abilities even at a young age. I simply must meet him.”

The master assassin made his move and began attacking Wei Jin’an with his student. The soldiers watched the two assassins tangle with the youth and began to swarm forward to join the onslaught.

At that moment, a black shadow appeared on the city wall behind Wei Jin’an and shot an arrow aimed directly at Wei Jin’an’s back. The arrow tore through the air and pierced straight at the youth..

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At this moment, the two assassins and the soldiers were attaching the youth. The arrow behind him pierced toward him with great force. It was swift as it soon reached his back and was about to pierce him.

One could only imagine what would happen to Wei Jin’an if the arrow pierced him.

“No!” Su Binglan immediately shouted after waking up. She quickly sat up, and a cold sweat broke out on her face. She panted, and her heart was pounding when she sat up.

She could not return to her senses for a long time but soon realized she was dreaming when she finally caught her breath. She dreamed of Luo Jin’an but did not know if what she had witnessed was real.

Su Binglan wondered if Luo Jin’an was like that when he was in good health and unaffected by the cold poison.@@novelbin@@

‘He’s so strong and could protect a whole city with his own strength.’ An indescribable feeling rose in Su Binglan’s heart. She was proud of him but also felt a little sad. She did not understand why she would dream of such a scene either.

She covered her chest with one hand and still had some lingering fear. She was worried about Luo Jin’an and wondered how he was doing.

When she woke up, the sky was still dark, and it had not even been two days since he had left. It took a long time for Su Binglan to calm her emotions. After lying down again, images of Wei Jin’an and the arrow filled her mind.

Su Binglan’s heart pounded, and she was concerned about her husband. She laid to rest but could not fall back asleep, no matter how hard she tried.

She was no longer sleepy and had no choice but to get up, light a candle, and sit at her desk to keep herself busy. If she did not do something now, she would only think of Luo Jin’an, causing her heart to ache.

Thus, Su Binglan could only distract herself by getting busy. She took a piece of paper and began writing a proposal. She also wrote what she would do next and other plans like architectural drawings of the land.

Ads by Pubfuture She had bought the land between the town and the village for planning purposes. The embroidery shop, staff dormitories, and winery were already there.

She planned to build more buildings in the later stages. After all, she still wanted another factory, a commercial street, and even a residential area in the future.

That land was substantial, and Su Binglan still had many things to build. She considered that and started drawing architectural designs. She busied herself and did not know that it was already daybreak.

When she noticed the sky brightening, she put down her charcoal pen and went to wash up. Meanwhile, her parents also woke up early.

Su Fengmao helped Shen Qiuhua with breakfast. He started the fire while his wife cooked. Shen Qiuhua looked at her daughter and noticed the exhaustion in her eyes. She asked worriedly, “Did you not sleep well last night, Binglan?” She could tell from Su Binglan’s eyes.

Su Fengmao also looked at his daughter and knew she did not seem to have slept well. “Have you been too busy lately, Binglan?”

Su Binglan had been exceptionally busy recently with many things to do. Since she had many things to worry about and worked from morning to night, she barely had time to rest.

The older couple’s hearts ached when they saw this. Shen Qiuhua and Su

Fengmao wanted to do more for their daughter, but Su Binglan did not want them to worry either. She said, “No, I slept pretty well. Don’t worry.

“Father, we should have a simple breakfast, then go and hire people for the winery.”

Su Fengmao nodded. “Don’t worry.”

It was still a little early, so Su Wenzhe and the others had yet to wake up. Su Binglan had a quick meal with her parents before following her father to the winery.

She guessed many people would come for the interview, but her expectations were still low. More people showed up than when she was hiring for the embroidery shop.

The sky was still slightly dark, but the line was already long. Everyone knew the winery would only hire men, so only men showed up. After all, they had heard the news yesterday afternoon.

They also knew that Su Binglan would not prioritize the men from Su Teng Village this time. Still, she would only hire those based on their abilities and morals.

Everyone tried their best to work at the winery, even those who lived far away from Su Teng Village. They woke up before dawn and walked over. These people did not mind working at the winery, even if they had to walk back and forth for more than four hours daily.

They knew how well the tofu factory and embroidery shop treated their employees, so it was evident the winery would be the same. Everyone was both excited and nervous as they lined up.

They all looked at Su Binglan in unison when she appeared. Everyone’s eyes were full of nervousness and excitement.

Su Fengmao looked at them and was shocked. “There are so many people here. We don’t need this many people, so I wonder how many will feel disappointed if we don’t hire them.

He understood how everyone felt about wanting to find a job to earn money. He knew everyone was looking forward to the interview. Still, they would be sad if they got rejected.

Su Binglan said, “You don’t have to worry too much, Father. The production of potatoes and sweet potatoes will be high soon. As long as everyone works hard, their families’ conditions will improve.

“Also, we hire people based on their abilities and morals. It’s fair and just. If we don’t hire someone, it just means they lack something the others have.

“I will also build another factory in the future, so there will be other opportunities for everyone. One can always earn money if they have the smarts, abilities, and diligence.”

After developing all the land she had bought, there would be more opportunities for others to work. Besides, the income would be much higher than in previous years if everyone planted high-yield grain.

It all depended on whether or not everyone was diligent enough.

Su Fengmao felt much better after hearing his daughter’s words. After all, he had also experienced poverty. That was why he knew what these people felt. However, he was still afraid. Therefore, he still worked hard daily, even though his family’s conditions had improved exponentially. He helped his daughter look after the tofu factory and ensured he delivered everything correctly.

The winery also had a dedicated office with two tables outside. Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian also arrived, and Su Wenxian was responsible for everyone’s registration.

Meanwhile, Su Binglan, Su Fengmao, and Su Fengzhang made the final decisions. They decided on the spot who could work at the winery because some people lived too far away, making it troublesome for the trio to inform them later.

Moreover, the trio would fire those who gave false information about themselves. However, no one who came to apply for the job faked anything because they knew the Su family would find out.

The villagers would also report them if they faked their information. That was because everyone had their eyes on the winery’s location and wanted to work there.

If anyone were to fake their way in, it would be unfair to others. Therefore, no one even thought of pushing their luck and faking anything. Everyone was sincere and answered all of Su Binglan’s questions truthfully..

The people who got hired on the spot were ecstatic. Some were so excited that they started crying because they could finally work for Su Binglan. They could not believe what they had heard.

Su Binglan also told the ones she hired about the winery’s benefits, “You will earn fifty copper coins a month. There are morning and night shifts, and you will have eight rest days a month.

“You will also receive bonuses if the winery does well. I will give everyone holidays for their busy spring and autumn harvests, so you won’t need to worry about not having time. Those living far away or getting off work late can stay at the staff dormitory.”

Those hired became even more excited after hearing about the benefits they could receive. They could also make money like those working at the tofu factory.

Everyone knew how well the tofu factory treated its staff, but they were still excited when they heard they could also receive such treatment.

Some were still slightly nonplussed when they exited the winery. They only realized it was true by looking at their wooden tags.

Meanwhile, those who did not get hired walked out with their heads lowered, looking discouraged. They sighed and were in no mood to talk as they went home with still-lowered heads.

Those who got hired came out with a different state of mind. The people in line looked at these people’s expressions and became even more nervous.

Since everyone shared their nervousness, they began discussing things softly.

“It’s evident those who got hired are happy.”

“Yeah, they have wooden tags that someone asked about. They said it’s a registration tag, signifying they can start working at the winery tomorrow.”

Ads by Pubfuture “I came here to line up early in the morning, and many others were already waiting.”

“You might not know this, but most people here didn’t sleep much last night.

That’s why they’re here earlier than others.”

“They should also receive good treatment that the surrounding villages don’t offer.

“Aren’t the Su family’s tofu factory and embroidery shop the only places to provide such benefits and treatment? Those two places only hire women, and the winery is the only one that will use all male workers. Of course, everyone wants to perform well.”

“Who wouldn’t want to? Especially since we can potentially earn so much money in a month. It’s almost as much as our annual crop income.”

“We work all year to get crops and then sell them just to see some income.

However, we can get monthly pay working at the winery.”

“Uncle Yang’s daughter works at the embroidery shop. She got a silver tael last month, making Uncle Yang and his family very happy. The family can live well for a year with that one silver tael.”

“I can potentially get paid monthly and have eight rest days a month. There’s also the staff dormitory, so I won’t have to worry about living too far away.”

“Everyone knows that. If we can get the job, it’ll improve our living conditions.

That’s why everyone is lining up.”

“Exactly. ”

Soe discussed in low voices as the line continued moving forward. Even Lin Chai lined up for the interview. He could speak better now and no longer stuttered. Hence, he showed up to the interview confidently with a straight back.

Still, he was nervous when he went in for the interview. He feared stuttering again when he spoke, but Su Binglan only asked him two questions before telling him he could start working tomorrow.

Lin Chai was in disbelief when he heard Su Binglan’s words. He thought it was just a dream. He stuttered nervously, “M-Miss Su, can I r-really start work tomorrow?”

He noticed his stuttering and became annoyed, but Su Binglan knew he was nervous. “Don’t be nervous, Mr. Lin. You heard me right, so come to my uncle tomorrow, and he will get you settled.”

“Yes, Miss Su,” Lin Chai nodded vigorously, his voice choked with sobs.

After exiting the office, he could not wait to run home and tell his wife the good news.

The Su family needed many people to work at the winery, but too many people showed up for the interview. Ultimately, the Su family had to decline many people.

Su Binglan and the others were busy the entire morning and finally decided on their name list. Su Binglan gave the name list to her uncle and said, “Uncle Fengzhang, Cousin Wenxian, I’ll leave the winery’s management to you.”

Su Fengzhang carefully held the name list and said, “Don’t worry, Binglan. We’ll take good care of it for you.”

Su Wenxian was excited, too. He felt like he was about to do something big as he rubbed his hands together, saying, “Don’t worry, Cousin Binglan. My father and I will tell you everything that happens at the winery.”

After lunch, Su Binglan spent the afternoon preparing the glaze at home. She had returned to the back of the mountain yesterday afternoon to find the natural ingredients she needed.

Then she mixed them according to a specific ratio to make the glaze and told Su Wenxian to send it to Willow Village.

Su Zhengde was leading his team to expand the pottery workshop when Su

Ads by Pubfuture

Wenxian arrived at Willow Village. Su Wenxian smiled when he saw Su

Zhengde, asking, “Are you working on the workshop, Uncle Zhengde?”

“Yeah, Binglan gave us the blueprints last night, so we’ll expand the workshop according to it. The workshop will be much bigger soon.”

After expanding the workshop, Su Zhengde knew the family would need to hire more people.

‘The families surrounding Teng He Town are improving, and Binglan is responsible for it. That child is so young and has so much energy.’

After exchanging a few pleasantries with his uncle, Su Wenxian entered the workshop and handed the glaze to Tao Zhenggang and the others. Tao Zhenggang did not expect Su Binglan to make the glaze so quickly.

The family followed Su Binglan’s instructions and placed the porcelain into the glaze before baking it in the furnace. The result was colored bottles and jars that looked exceptional.

The Taos’ eyes lit up when they saw the colorful bottles. They could not regain their senses for a long time as they looked at the beautiful colors. @@novelbin@@

Meanwhile, Tao Eryong began to paint flowers on the bottle carefully. After painting and baking the porcelain, the bottles looked even more exquisite and luxurious. The family’s excitement only grew.

Su Binglan was heading to town for a look after finishing some tasks, but Su

Fengmao brought someone to the house. “Binglan, this is Geng Song, a merchant who buys our tofu products.”

The young lady looked at Geng Song and had an impression of him. He had bought something from the accessory store in town before.

Su Binglan first knew about this person because her father had brought home a jar of wine to drink and was especially happy. Su Fengmao said he had received the wine as a gift from a foreign businessman.

Geng Song said carefully, “Miss Su, I was wondering if I could buy some of your wine. I’m interested in selling it where I live. Your father gave me a taste of your wine, and it’s exceptionally delicious. It’s better and cheaper than ours, so

I want to buy more.”

Geng Song lived in the north and far from Su Teng Village. He had to go out and make a living because his family’s conditions were not good. He wanted to earn money for his family to live a better life.

However, he did not expect to come across such a business opportunity in Su

Teng Village..

At first, Geng Song had little money, so he only bought some tofu products, preserved eggs, and salted duck eggs to sell to his people. With these, he could instantly earn a lot.

He would then use his earnings to buy and sell more. Step by step, Geng Song earned quite a bit of money. Only then did he start to order larger quantities of goods and also buy products from Su’s Accessories.

His business was booming when he brought those things to his local area. People practically snatched his products away.

However, ordinary people could only afford tofu, preserved eggs, and salted duck eggs, while the dignitaries bought the accessories. The locals in that area also enjoyed eating stinky tofu and liked the embroidery shop’s accessories.

Geng Song profited and built a big house for his family. He also bought his parents and younger siblings new clothes and thicker quilts.

Then he bought charcoal from the Su family as it was cheap. That way, his parents, younger brother, and younger sister would not suffer from the cold. His family would not be afraid of winter with warm clothes and food to eat.

If there were anything delicious in Teng He Town and Su Teng Village, he would bring them to his parents and younger siblings.

He also planned to bring his family to Teng He Town to eat hotpot when the weather improved in spring because he could not bring hotpot to his home to eat.

Su Binglan nodded and said, “You’ll need wine jars to buy wine and bring it to your local area. The price of rice wine is fifteen copper coins per 500 grams. I calculate the jar prices separately, so a standard one is three copper coins, and a small one is one copper coin.”

Geng Song knew how good Su Binglan’s wine was. His people would buy it at several times the original price if he sold it to them. Of course, he would only sell the wine at a higher price to the rich and lower to ordinary people.

He knew he could collaborate with the Su family, and they sold him things because they knew he was a businessman with morals. He would not cheat ordinary people as he was also from a village. He knew the struggles of an ordinary villager, after all.

Geng Song had earned money for himself and had no reason to return to his village to harm its people. Therefore, he had principles in doing things.

Su Binglan understood this and agreed to sell her wine to him.

Ads by Pubfuture Geng Song was a little curious. “What does a small bottle look like?”

He knew about jars but did not know what the small bottles Su Binglan mentioned looked like. He also wondered if it was for wine.

Soon after, Su Binglan brought him to her eldest uncle’s house to look at the small bottles, and he was stunned when he saw them. @@novelbin@@

‘These small bottles look exquisite! Everyone will know how good the wine is at a glance if I use these to store wine. I can sell such exquisitely packaged wine to wealthy families at a higher price.

‘I’ll sell the wine in wine jars to ordinary people at the price of loose wine. It’ll be fair and cheap, so everyone can buy some to try.’

Geng Song planned to open a small shop at his village’s entrance. Although it would be a small shop, its business would be excellent. People from surrounding villages, including those from the town and country, would go to his shop to buy things.

Then his parents could help him oversee the shop without leaving the village, and life at home would be much better.

“These small bottles look perfect, Miss Su. Can I buy more of these from you?” Su Binglan asked, “Do you only want these small bottles?”

“I also want a few jars to make it more convenient to transport them back.

Then I’ll fill the small bottles with the wine from the jars when I reach home.”

Su Binglan thought about it for a while and said, “We use these specific bottles to store our own wine, so it won’t look the same if you only want the bottles. The price can be a little higher. It’s two coins per bottle.

“If you can wait a few days, the winery will put the wine into bottles. They’ll pack it tightly, so you won’t have to worry about dropping your cargo on the road. There won’t be a problem if you don’t drop it on purpose.”

Geng Song heard Su Binglan’s words and said, “Then I’ll do as you suggest, Miss Su. I’ll buy ten jars and twenty bottles of wine.”

He wanted to buy these first to test the waters. Then he would buy more later. Geng Song started small, so he was more cautious when conducting business.

“All right, tell my Uncle Fengzhang and the others about this later.” Su Binglan was relieved to leave the winery to her uncle.

“Yes, Miss Su.” The merchants respected Su Binglan because they could do business and profit from the things she had developed. They also admired her from the bottom of their hearts.

Geng Song felt Su Binglan’s capabilities and thought she was legendary.

When the villagers heard they could finally buy wine, they took their money and went to Su Fengzhang’s house to get some. Meanwhile, he and his son were preparing to move some things to the newly-opened winery.

When the villagers arrived, the father-son duo put down their things and went to get the wine for the villagers. Su Wenxian collected the money while his father weighed the wine for everyone.

Someone could not help but praise, “The wine smells so good!”

“Yeah, come and smell the fragrance. It’s quite enjoyable.”

Most came to buy rice wine, and very few bought fruit wine, mainly because fruit wine was more expensive. Everyone was still reluctant to spend that little bit of money.

The people who brought their wine home praised it after tasting it. Even Miss He spent fifteen coins to buy a jar of wine. She wanted Lin Chai to buy it, but he said saving as much as possible was best.

Miss He knew she could earn back the money she spent since she worked at the embroidery shop, so she wanted to treat her husband better.

Miss He thought she could earn money by working in the embroidery workshop, so she wanted to treat Lin Chai better. Now that Lin Chai could work at the winery, she was thrilled.

Therefore, she secretly bought a jar of wine and planned to cook some dishes so the whole family would be happy.

Although Lin Chai was reluctant to buy wine, he felt touched when his wife brought a jar of it home. “I told you that we should save more money. I know how hard you work at the embroidery shop.”

Since Miss He earned most of the money for the family by working at the embroidery shop, Lin Chai felt sorry for her and could not bear to spend her hard -earned money.

Miss He said, “This wine is cheap and tastes good. Everyone is buying it, so we should try it, too. We’re happy you got the winery job, so let’s eat some good food tonight.”

The couple’s two sons were home, but not Lin Shu. He was Su Wenxiu’s apprentice, learning medicine with him, so he could only come home at night. Therefore, Miss He got busy and started cooking first.

Lin Shu returned soon after his mother finished cooking, saying, “Father, Mother, I’m back.”

“You’re home a little later than usual today, aren’t you?”

“I was helping my master tidy some things up. Miss Su wants to take in female apprentices and set up a medical school.” Lin Shu habitually told his parents about his day whenever he got home.

He also wanted to make his parents happy and show them everything he had learned..

Lin Chai and Miss He were relieved to know Lin Chai was studying medicine under Su Wenxiu.

Miss He asked him why he had returned later than usual because she worried he had gone elsewhere after leaving the Su family’s house. She hoped her eldest son would be righteous. She did not want him to have wicked thoughts when studying medicine.

Still, she did not expect to hear such news from him. “Miss Su is looking for female apprentices? She’s also starting medical school?”

Miss He was stunned and suspected she had misheard him.

Lin Shu nodded. “That’s right, Mother. When Miss Su sets up the school, we’ll attend classes and learn things together, but when it comes to certain things about women’s anatomy, only the girls will be allowed to listen in.” Since this era was still conservative, Su Binglan considered many people’s thoughts and decided to do that. Nonetheless, it was necessary to accept female apprentices for this reason.

If these girls’ parents were open-minded, they would let their daughters learn, and if they did not want to send their daughters to medical school, they could choose not to.

Lin Shu did not think much about it and was quite happy he could have many more people to learn with. Moreover, they could listen to Su Binglan’s lectures and learn more medical knowledge.

He was excited just thinking about it, but he noticed something amiss with his mother’s expression and asked, “What’s wrong, Mother?”

Miss He sighed, “If you had a younger sister, I’d want her to learn medicine from Miss Su, too.’

‘I would want my daughter to learn from Miss Su if I had one. It would be good, even if she could learn just a little. Miss Su is my benefactor. I know my family wouldn’t be where we are without her.

Miss He was perturbed about Lin Chai and felt a lingering fear when she thought of her family’s past situation. However, her body had recovered, and Lin Chai stopped stuttering because of Su Binglan.

Moreover, Miss He was now working at the embroidery shop and even received more than one silver tael last month. Lin Chai could also work at the winery soon.

Meanwhile, her eldest son, Lin Shu, studied medicine with Su Wenxiu. Whenever Su Wenxiu gave consultations, Lin Shu would assist him. The family’s neighbors were envious because Lin Shu could learn medicine from Su Wenxiu.

Miss He felt proud when she thought of how successful her son would be in the future. Still, she wanted to have a daughter when she heard the news from her son.

‘If I had a daughter, I would let her learn from Miss Su.’

In the past, others said a woman without talents was virtuous, but Miss He felt that a girl with skills would live a good life. For example, many people working at the embroidery shop got hired because they knew how to sew and

embroider.

Therefore, one’s family’s conditions would be excellent if one had a skill. That was Miss He’s understanding. @@novelbin@@

Lin Shu said thoughtfully, “I want a sister, too. I’d treat her well, play with her, and teach her medicine.”

Miss He smiled gently after hearing her son’s words. Now that she was in good health, she should still be able to have children. Although she already had three sons, she genuinely wanted a daughter.

She knew women were capable and not inferior to men. ‘Just look at Miss Su. She has helped many people.’

Everyone working in the embroidery shop was grateful to Su Binglan from the bottom of their hearts.

News of Su Binglan looking for female apprentices to learn medicine quickly spread throughout Su Teng Village. Many thought it would be a great fortune if their children learned medicine from Su Binglan.

However, some also thought it would be bad for their reputation and harm their children if girls were to learn alongside boys. Therefore, they hesitated and waited to see what others would do.

Everyone considered whether or not they should send their daughters to study medicine.

Some felt that if their family’s conditions were good, it would be better if their daughters worked at the embroidery shop or tofu factory in the future.

Even if they could not get a job at the two places, the family could earn enough, prepare dowries, and marry off their daughters. They decided there was no need for their daughters to study medicine. Otherwise, they would not feel at ease if their daughters studied with boys.

Nonetheless, Su Binglan made it voluntary when recruiting females as medical apprentices. She did not force anyone to send their girls to study. Besides, she would only recruit ten girls.

Even if some were to send their daughters to study, Su Binglan might not choose them.

Li Dazhuang and Li Erying returned home at the same time at night. The family finished cooking and sat around the dining table to eat.

After dinner, Li Dazhuang said, “Grandma, I heard Miss Su wants to accept female apprentices to study medicine. But she intends to establish a medical school where they will learn alongside boys.”

Old Madam Li and Li Erying stopped peeling their corn and looked at Li

Dazhuang when he said that.

Li Erying’s eyes lit up. “Is that true, Brother?”

Li Dazhuang answered, “It’s true. I’ve asked Wenwu about it, and he confirmed it. His family has already cleared a room and will turn it into a medical class soon. Miss Su and Wenxiu will take turns teaching when the time comes.”

Li Erying opened her mouth to say something but hesitated and stopped herself. However, Old Madam Li had always been the decision-maker in the family. She asked, “Do you want to study medicine, Erying?”

Li Dazhuang followed Su Wenwu around and gradually became more knowledgeable. He knew it was always good to learn something.

Now that his sister was working at the embroidery shop and could earn much, he did not know what his grandmother and sister’s conversation meant. After all, he was just passing on the news.

“That’s Erying’s decision to make,” Li Dazhuang said, “She has to decide for herself.’

Old Madam Li asked again, “So, do you want to learn, Erying?”

“I-I… But I work at the embroidery shop and can earn money to improve our lives.” She looked like she wanted to learn, after all.

She had wanted to learn to read since childhood but never dared to consider it fully. Even though she had the chance to now, she felt restrained.

She knew her family would have to rely on her brother if she did not work at the embroidery shop. Then her brother would be under a lot of pressure.

Although she had a younger brother, he was still young and could not work.

As the boy’s elder sister, she could not be too selfish.

Old Madam Li looked at her severely. “Don’t worry about whether or not you work at the embroidery shop. Just tell me if you want to study medicine. Tell me the truth, okay?”

Li Erying finally answered, “Y-Yes, Grandma. I’d like to study medicine and be as capable as Miss Su. I admire her a lot because she has helped so many people. She also cured you and developed the hotpot restaurants. If not for that, Big Brother wouldn’t have a job.

“She’s amazing. If I study medicine, I can also treat and save people. I want to help others.” Li Erying knew her family’s situation the best. She was always on tenterhooks, worried her grandmother would suddenly pass.

She also felt like a burden to the family. However, the family improved since Su

Binglan helped them..
