In the fifth year of Zhenguan, October 29th, Chenshi, Qinjiazhuang, Lantian County
After a day's rest, Qin Ming felt refreshed when he got up in the morning.
After he got dressed, he got up and walked out of the room, and started his morning run around Zhuangzi.
Along the way, farmers from the village would greet him from time to time.
Qin Ming nodded and responded without stopping. The farmers were accustomed to this.
Ever since the husband of the Qin family recovered, he would run around Zhuangzi almost every morning.
Everyone was very curious at first, but over time, everyone got used to it.
Unknowingly, Qin Ming ran to the resettlement point on Zhuangzi.
At this time, people in the resettlement site were queuing up outside the house, waiting to get food.
Some sharp-eyed refugees saw Qin Ming's figure.
I shouted from afar
"I've met Mr. Qin."
Immediately afterwards, the crowd was like ants exploding in a pot.
"I've met Mr. Qin."
"I've met my benefactor."
"..."
Qin Ming looked at the crowd gathering towards him and had to stop.
He smiled and greeted everyone, and then asked everyone whether their life in Zhuangzi was good these two days and whether they had any difficulties.
Everyone praised Qin Ming one after another and thanked him.
At this time, a young man squeezed in front of Qin Ming, bowed and said:
"My benefactor is above me, Zhang Wenyuan is below me. I thank you for your great kindness."
Seeing this, Qin Ming hurriedly stepped forward to help the young man up and looked him up and down. He saw that the man was wearing a long gown that was somewhat white from the wash.
There is a wooden hairpin on her head, and she has beautiful features. Qin Ming thought for a while and asked:
"Are you the boy on the roadside the day before yesterday?"
Zhang Wenyuan and Qin Ming recognized him, nodded and said:
"Yes."
When the other onlookers saw that Mr. Qin had met the young man, they immediately stopped saying hello and stood aside to listen quietly.
"Has your grandpa been buried? Are there any other relatives at home?"
When Zhang Wenyuan heard Qin Ming ask about his grandfather, sadness instantly spread to his face, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
The voice was hoarse and said:
"Well, thank you for your concern, my dear benefactor. The people at the young master's residence have helped me bury my grandpa."
"I have grown up with my grandfather since I was a child, and now I have no relatives at home."
When the people around him heard the young man's words, they immediately felt pity.
Many women also shed tears frequently as they listened. It seemed that the young man's experience aroused their longing for their deceased relatives.
Qin Ming thought for a while and said:
"Well, if that's the case, are you willing to follow me in the future?"
The young man raised his head, looked at Qin Ming, nodded heavily and bowed:
"Wen Yuan is willing. My benefactor is very kind to me. If my benefactor hadn't saved me, I might have starved to death on the road."
"Wen Yuan is willing to follow your benefactor, do the hard work of dogs and horses, and repay your kindness."
Qin Ming was also very happy when he heard this. Now the government has a plan to employ people. He can be sent to the orphanage in Zhuangzi first to train him with other people.
"Well, okay, let me take you to a place first. The people there are orphans just like you. When you go there, you have to get along well with them. By the way, you can call me Young Master from now on."
"Yes, sir."
After everyone heard this, they all looked at the young man named Wen Yuan with envy.
In the past few days since they came to Zhuangzi, after inquiring, they already knew that Mr. Qin who took them in was a rare and good man.
Moreover, the Qin Mansion is the largest landlord in the entire Qin Family Village, and the Qin Mansion also pays a lot of wages.
They even heard that the most paid people in the Qin Mansion were the guards.
As long as one person in a family joins the Qin Mansion Guards, they can live a prosperous life even if the others do not work.
And in addition to these, they also heard that Qin Mansion has a field where vegetables can be grown in winter.
Selling in Chang'an City these days, I have made a lot of money.
Therefore, many of them have decided to settle down in Qinjiazhuang.
If they can work in the Qin Mansion in the future, or be lucky enough to join the Qin Mansion Guards, it has now become their biggest wish.
After Qin Ming said goodbye to everyone, he took Zhang Wenyuan towards the orphanage.
Through chatting with Zhang Wenyuan along the way, Qin Ming learned that he had read books before and had an idea in his mind.
The children in the orphanage have not seen Qin Ming in the past two days.
Seeing him coming, they all put down what they were doing and gathered towards him.
After these days of getting along, these children gradually recovered from the grief of losing their loved ones.
They surrounded Qin Ming, and the orphanage instantly became lively.
"Sir, why haven't you come these past two days?"
"Sir, did you come here to tell us a story today?"
"Sir, have you had breakfast?"
Qin Ming looked at these children who had lost their loved ones, looked at their excited and happy expressions, and pressed his hands.
"I brought you a new friend today. His name is Zhang Wenyuan. He will live with you for a while."
After speaking, he turned to the crowd and said:
"In a few days, I will find some teachers to come and teach everyone how to read and write."
Everyone immediately cheered happily.
After chatting with many children for a while, Qin Ming returned to Qin Mansion.
After breakfast, Qin Ming returned to his study.
I experienced it all morning, especially in the orphanage, seeing the orphans whose eyes had color again.
Qin Ming feels that everything he is doing now is worthwhile.
After all, if you do nothing in such a world, you can live a very relaxed life materially, but you may feel empty spiritually.
Furthermore, if I was just an ordinary landowner who didn't bother or go out, then I wouldn't have met Xiao Changxi.
Thinking of this, Qin Ming became determined again in what he was doing.
While eating as much as possible, I also try my best to help more people.
Let more people live a better life.
Then Qin Ming started writing plans for Qingbei University and brewing workshops.
About six o'clock in the morning, Qin Ming asked his servants to find the craftsman god Li Chun and inquire about the progress of the recent workshops and brick kilns.
Through Li Chun’s report, we learned that most of the tea-frying workshop has been completed and is ready to be put into use.
The construction of brick kilns has begun, and the first brick kiln will be put into operation in about two days.
Qin Ming quite recognized Li Chun's ability to do things. He did not expect that he had made such great progress in such a short period of time.
Then he thought about the brewing workshop, so he looked at Li Chuntian and said:
"Master Carpenter Li, I have something urgent to do here, and I need you to arrange someone to do it."
"Sir, please tell me."
Qin Ming picked up the redrawn distillation equipment drawings from the desk and handed them to Li Chuntao:
"This is a device for making high-strength wine in my house. According to the drawings, arrange for someone to bake the device in batches according to the drawing."
"You can take the simple device you have in your house and use it as a reference."
"This matter must be kept secret. Remember to bake the components of the device separately."
When Li Chun heard that it was a device for brewing strong liquor in his house, he immediately became energetic.
He had always been curious about how the wine on Zhuangzi was brewed. He took the drawings in his hands and started to read them carefully.
When Qin Ming saw this, he smiled and said:
"Also, some people from the tea roasting workshop are left to finish the work, and we will start building the brewing workshop today."
"I just gave you the blueprint of the brewery. Just build it according to the drawing."
Hearing this, Li Chun quickly opened the last drawing, and sure enough, there was a schematic diagram of the workshop drawn on it.
The general appearance is similar to that of a fried tea workshop, but it is much larger than a fried tea workshop.
Then he put away the drawings, saluted Qin Ming and said:
"Young master, if you don't have anything else to do, I'll go down and make arrangements first."
Seeing Qin Ming nod, Li Chun walked out of the study door.
