It was already shocking to Liu Qiaos.h.i.+ when she got paid more than others. She could not react and was even more confused when Su Binglan said she would be a manager and give her a raise next month.

She was in a daze, and her eyes and mouth were wide open. She could not believe it but felt that what she had heard was trueo

Shen Qiuhua found Liu Qiaos.h.i.+’s reaction rather amusing because Liu Qiaos.h.i.+ was not typically like that. Liu Qiaos.h.i.+ would usually be more steady-going, and Shen Qiuhua felt at ease, leaving many things to Liu Qiaos.h.i.+.

“Qiaos.h.i.+, take your pay,” Shen Qiuhua said softly.

Liu Qiaos.h.i.+ suddenly returned to her senses when she heard Shen Qiuhua’s words. She quickly took the money and said incoherently, “Thank you, thank you.”

She held the money and felt a warm sensation in her heart. She looked at her earnings with s.h.i.+ning eyes but did not expect Su Binglan to offer her the manager position.

No matter how steady-going Liu Qiaos.h.i.+ usually was, she could not help but smile. Her mouth opened as she smiled, slightly revealing her neat teeth. She was overjoyed and could not wait to go home and share the good news with her family. She knew her parents and brother would be proud.

Su Binglan looked at Liu Qiaos.h.i.+ encouragingly. “Good luck, and do your best.”

“Yes, yes.” Liu Qiaos.h.i.+ nodded vigorously. She took the money and gulped her saliva, unable to hide her smile.

After giving out the workers’ salaries and bonuses, Su Binglan said, “Continue working hard, everyone. Our tofu factory’s business will only keep improving.

You’ll get more bonuses by then.

“Yes. Thank you, Miss Su. Thank you, Miss Shen.” “Thank you all for your hard work,” Su Binglan replied.

Everyone thanked Su Binglan excitedly.

“Liu Qiaos.h.i.+ will be our tofu factorys manager from now on. Manager Liu will help my mother manage the factory. Do your best, everyone. We will promote those capable and willing to help others in the future,” Su Binglan said a few more words of encouragement and left the factory.

Then Shen Qiuhua called Liu Qiaos.h.i.+ over and gave her some instructions. Shen Qiuhua would no longer have to do so many things alone because she could arrange for Liu Qiaos.h.i.+ to do them. After all, she trusted Liu Qiaos.h.i.+’s attentiveness and competence.

Energy filled Liu Qiaos.h.i.+’s body, and her eyes s.h.i.+ned brightly. She would listen attentively whenever Shen Qiuhua gave her instructions.

At that moment, everyone in the tofu shop relaxed. They could not suppress their excitement and started talking amongst each other.

“We just received a one silver tael bonus. Even though I’m holding it, I still can’t believe it.”

“I can’t believe it either. I don’t even know where to put it now. I just want to get it back home for lunch.”

“Miss Su is too kind.”

“If this gets out, people will be envious of us.”

“Getting a job at the Su family’s tofu factory is difficult. If we weren’t in Su Teng village, we wouldn’t have been able to work here.”

“I agree. In the past, people from our village fought to get information about the factory and work here when they heard about the 150 coin salary. If they knew how much we received as a bonus, they would freak out.”

“Miss Su takes care of the people in our village. Even if the tofu factory expands in the future, people from other villages will have to queue up to work there.”

“Let’s work even harder in the future.”

“It’s better to learn to read. Liu Qiaos.h.i.+ is already a manager.”

“Everyone can see what Liu Qiaos.h.i.+ does daily. She should be a manager.”

“It would be great if we could read too.”

Most Su Teng villagers could not read, so even if they wanted to help make notes, they could not. Many people realized the benefits of being able to read and write.

Some even thought of letting their children learn to read and write at school since they were illiterate. However, school fees were too expensive, and no one dared to think in that direction in the past.

But after receiving their bonuses, the villagers felt it was enough to pay for

their children’s education.

“We can send our children to private schools when we earn more money. Some private schools are cheaper with one silver tael a month as the tuition fee.”

“I just don’t know how much my bonus will be next month. I must save it and allow my family to eat their fill before thinking about anything else.”

“I’m so happy after getting my pay today. I’m going to have a good meal tonight.”

“We can go home and have some good food this afternoon. Our families will be thrilled when we go home and tell them about it.”

“I plan to come back to work after lunch. I’ll prepare dinner during my afternoon break.”

“By the way, I’ll take a day off in a few days. Is anyone going to town to buy things? I plan to go to town to buy a pound of meat and some desserts for my child. ”

“I’m going to town to buy some cloth and make new clothes for my family. I don’t have to make clothes for myself. Our tofu shop has custom-made uniforms for me, which look good on normal days.”

Su Binglan had ordered two sets of uniforms for each worker in the tofu factory. Of course, these two sets of uniforms were new to everyone. The villagers did not have much to wear on average days, so they wore their work clothes.

Moreover, the people from other villages would know the Su Teng villagers were working in the tofu factory when they saw them wearing their uniforms. The people from other villagers would be envious of them.

Being looked at with envious eyes was not a bad feeling.

“I want to buy salt, but it’s too expensive. My family has used up all of it and couldn’t bear to buy more, but I can buy more soon.”

“My father likes to drink, but wine is too expensive. I usually can’t bear to buy it. Since I’ve received a bonus, I can give my father two bottles of wine.”

“I want to save up so I can buy more things at the end of the year and have a good New Year.”

“If we can get this much money monthly, we’ll have a good New Year. We can wear new clothes this year and buy many New Year goods.”

Everyone was excitedly discussing this as they worked with smiles on their faces. The atmosphere at the tofu factory was lively at that moment. The workers looked forward to their lunch break so they could go home and share the good news with their families.

However, they felt a little uneasy carrying so much money with them that they dared not move.

It was almost time for a lunch break when Liu Qiaos.h.i.+, Shen Qiuhua, and Qiu He went in with a tofu cart. One said, “This is also a benefit of working at our factory. Everyone will receive a pound of tofu to bring home for your families to try.” “Whoa!”

“That’s great!”

“I want to pinch them to see if they’re real.”

The tofu shop was in an uproar as everyone was ecstatic. Receiving money and items felt different. Receiving items was a surprise for everyone The workers stepped forward to receive their share of tofu.

Tofu typically costs six coins per 500 grams. Although it cost one coin less to the people of Su Teng Village, no one was willing to buy it because it ultimately cost money.

Initially, many people wanted to buy a pound of tofu with their earnings to cook and try, but they did not expect the Su family to gift them the tofu. It was a pleasant surprise for everyone.

‘Everyone can go home after claiming their pound of tofu,” Shen Qiuhua said,

“You can go home and rest earlier today.”

These were the people on the morning s.h.i.+ft. The people on the night s.h.i.+ft would come to work in the afternoon and change s.h.i.+fts. Su Binglan would then give the night s.h.i.+ft their wages and tofu in the afternoon..
