Li Shiyue looked at the men who were quarreling below, but she didn't feel much. She had already understood this a long time ago.

There are as many kinds of people as there are people in this world.

Some people are hardworking and willing to make sacrifices; some people love to take advantage of others and are used to being cunning and sly.

There are many of them, some of them are honest and obedient, some of them are lively and eloquent;
That's how it is, there are all kinds of people;
Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, which is completely normal.

Li Shiyue positions himself as a leader. As a leader, what you should do is to discover the strengths of these people, play to their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, let them play their best role in the positions they should be in, and give them the benefits they want. Then, can't you do what you want to do well?
So, Li Shiyue gave Li Wangshui a look. After receiving Li Shiyue's look, Li Wangshui stood up, turned around and shouted at those whining men.

"What are you arguing about? Just listen to October!"

Seeing that the men had quieted down, Li Shiyue glanced around and began to explain to the paper.

“Before the spring, the charcoal yard and the merchants who stayed at the inn were the biggest businesses in our village.

This trade will be over in about ten days at most, and then everyone can just wait for the New Year.

But I'm just sitting around doing nothing at home, so I ordered twenty or so sheep from Turkic. I'll ask Uncle Wangshui to help you build a simple sheep shed at the back of the village, near the foot of the mountain.

When spring comes and the ground thaws, we can build a good shed.”

When Li Shiyue said this, someone looked at her and wanted to speak. Li Shiyue simply raised her hand and nodded, indicating that the other person should wait until she finished speaking.

“People can’t live without meat. Aunt Sun’s (Erdan’s mother) rabbit farm is doing well, so we have to expand it next year.

If any of you women are willing to work in the rabbit farm managed by Aunt Sun, go and ask Aunt Sun if she wants you.

As you have seen this time, rabbit skins can be sold, and the skinned rabbits can also be sold after being dried. Normally in our village, if anyone wants to eat rabbit, they can just ask Auntie to buy it for them.

As for these sheep I bought?

If anyone is willing to work in the sheep shed, please go and talk to my mother. The income from the sheep in the shed is enough to pay the wages.

I bought this sheep not just for its meat, I also wanted to try to knit sweaters with its wool.

If the experiment is successful, it can become a business in the future, and a business that can make money at home.

Besides, knitting sweaters can be done by both men and women, especially in our area where the weather gets cold early, and the coal mine doesn’t need many people, so the men who have nothing to do at home can also learn it and earn some money.”

As soon as Li Shiyue said this, many people started whispering to each other. Doesn’t anyone think it’s good to lie on a warm kang in the middle of winter?
Why don't you find people something to do?
There are also those who want to earn more money and live a good life, and some people shout from below: "In October, what kind of sweaters can we knit with our rough hands? Don't ruin those good things."

“Don’t worry, it’s possible.

If this deal is successful, you can expect to make a lot of money."

"October, what about this tofu shop?"

Li Shiyue nodded and continued the conversation: "Boating, forging iron and grinding tofu are indeed three tough jobs.

But this tofu shop still has to be opened.

Next spring, I hope we can reclaim more wasteland. It would be a shame to have more money than food!
We don't have to pay taxes in the first three years of land reclamation. There are still two years left, so we can open up more land.

Plant soybeans first, and if there is enough, plant some hemp. The paper mill can start working after the spring ploughing, and more hemp will be needed. After planting beans, the tofu shop can be opened.

I have a way to not only make tofu, but also make tofu into other long-lasting foods.

If our tofu shop does well, it may be possible to open a shop in the county or even in the provincial capital in the future.

As for the hard work of grinding tofu, I know that. I also ordered large livestock from the Turks, including three cows, five mules, and two horses.

If anyone wants to do tofu business in the future, please come to my house and tell my mother, and I will teach you.

If you have money, you can buy this big animal. If you don’t have enough money, you can rent it. I can use it for your own use.”

Families with many children and grandchildren have come to terms with this.

Families with a large population are never afraid of working hard. What they fear is that there is no work and no one needs to work, or that they work hard but get no results.

As long as I can have enough to eat and earn some money to buy some cloth to make clothes, and then save enough to hire a wife, that would be the best life.

"Okay, you all go back and think carefully about what I said, and think about it carefully together as a family.
If you have any ideas, go talk to Uncle Wangshui, or talk to my mother. If you want to enter the rabbit farm, go directly to Aunt Sun. "

Erdan's mother, who was named by Li Shiyue, said "Auntie", and looked at Li Shiyue, "Auntie, you can choose. If you find someone suitable, you can decide to keep him."

"Hey, don't worry, October. I will definitely choose the right person!"

"The second thing I want to talk about is this new clan rule!"

Sisters Li Qiutian and Li Xiatian stood up again and took out a stack of papers that they had copied in advance and distributed them to everyone one by one.

Jiang Huai also got one. He looked closely at the top of the paper and saw slightly larger words written on it - the first edition of Liujiatun clan rules.

"Article 1: Regardless of gender, children over the age of five must go to school. If they do not go, their parents will be punished!

Article 2: If there are people in the village who pass the imperial examination, they can get a share of the examination money. If there are people who pass the examination, they will be included in the village's honor roll! "

Jiang Huai only stared at these two items, and his heart was already somewhat shocked.

You have to know that the Jiang family learned the clan rules, which were left behind by their ancestors who had lived and multiplied in Andong for many years.

But how long have Li Shiyue and his friends been in Anton?

Less than a year!

Jiang Huai read on: "Article 3: If there are people who gamble or whore, the gambler will have one hand cut off, and the whore will have one leg cut off!
Article 4: If there are thieves or adulterers, depending on the severity of the offense, the lighter offense will be punished with 20 lashes and forced to kneel in the ancestral hall for three months, while the heavier offense will have both legs cut off! "

Just looking at these two items, Jiang Huai stared at Li Shiyue who was sitting at the top with wide eyes. You know, the punishment determined by Li Shiyue was indeed a bit too heavy.

Although compared with those crimes, this punishment is not too severe.

However, it must be said that the severity of the punishment is still a bit too great. Just like in the Jiang family, for gamblers, the most they get is thirty lashes and forced to kneel in the ancestral hall.

But when he looked down, Jiang Huai was shocked by the fifth village rule written by Li Shiyue!
