Su Fengmao raised his brows. “No, that’s a good thing. It’s best to tell everyone immediately, especially because news spreads quickly here.”

This scenario made Su Binglan recall her experience in the modern world. She remembered the first half of the third year in high school being tense.

The schools of that era would arrange for their students to study for the after-winter exams only two days before the New Year. Everyone accepted this rule when the teachers came in and handed out the holiday forms.

The students discussed whether or not they should take an early vacation. Everyone was excited and wanted to go home early for the holidays.

It was not until the evening self-study sessions that the cla.s.s teacher came to tell the students that the winter vacation would start on the following day. The cla.s.s burst into an uproar, and everyone was ecstatic.

Su Binglan’s smile grew even wider when she recalled her time in the modern world.

“We just thought everyone would be thrilled to hear the news, so we couldn’t help ourselves and told them. 1 told Liu Qiao and Lin Dahua about it yesterday afternoon, and they were excited.

“Lin Dahua was the most excited since she kept smiling all afternoon. The people in the street could help but ask her what she was smiling about, so she probably told everyone about the early vacations.”

Su Binglan explained, “l didn’t want to tell everyone about their vacation yet because I also wanted to announce their early salaries, bonuses, and gifts. Also, since the winery profited a lot, every employee there will receive more bonuses.

“The embroidery shop and tofu factory did well, too, but I still need to calculate their bonuses. Let’s carefully calculate our profits and try to give everyone their bonuses and gifts tomorrow.”

Then Su Binglan handed a large number of silver notes to Shen Qiuhua, saying, “Mother, you and Father will be responsible for exchanging these into small change at the bank this afternoon since I don’t have enough copper coins. ”

Shen Qiuhua’s hands trembled when she looked at the many silver notes she held. “Binglan, this… That’s too much. I don’t dare to walk around with all this.”

Su Binglan wanted to summon her Shadow Guards to accompany her parents, but that would be too conspicuous and might even scare her parents. After all, Shen Qiuhua and Su Fengmao still did not know their daughter was once Princess Lan Ruobing.

Suddenly, Luo Jin’an said, “I’ll go with them, Bing.”

Su Binglan could not feel more at ease with her husband accompanying her parents. After all, she knew how good her husband was at martial arts.

She could initially accompany her parents but had to go through the accounts in the afternoon. She had several accounts to check and calculate every one’s bonuses.

Fortunately, she had a photographic memory and could do mental calculations. Although she had many people’s bonuses to settle, she could calculate everything in just one afternoon.

Shen Qiuhua and Su Fengmao looked at their son-in-law suspiciously. Their impression of him was still that of the past, thinking he was weak and wondering if he could keep them safe.

However, the older couple considered it and realized their son-in-law had recovered exponentially. Ultimately, they knew they would be safe with him around. The older couple believed in their daughter’s arrangements, too.

Meanwhile, Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian attentively listened to Su Binglan’s arrangements.

Su Fengzhang asked, “Cousin Binglan, do we have to take an early break? I heard from the big guy that frequents the winery that he plans to buy from us during the New Year.”

Since staff could get discounts on alcohol, the workers planned to do so. Some of the staff’s relatives even asked them to buy wine using the staff discount. However, every worker was limited to how many bottles they could buy. Also, they could not buy alcohol from the winery at discounted prices to resell them. The winery imposed such a rule immediately after establis.h.i.+ng the staff discount.

Nonetheless, the workers dared not do such a thing as resell the alcohol. After all, they could not earn as much as they did working at the winery. Moreover, no one would risk losing their coveted jobs at the winery just for a few extra coins.

The workers preferred saving money instead of buying alcohol at the winery. Even so, it was different when the New Year was approaching.

Since everyone had money for the celebration, they planned to buy some alcohol and store them at home for when the holidays began.

Moreover, the workers could buy alcohol at the winery at discounted prices, making it more cost-effective for them to entertain their guests during the New Year celebrations.

“Everyone will receive two bottles of wine as a year-end gift. So, the workers won’t have to buy alcohol.”

Su Wenxian and Su Fengzhang were shocked when they heard that. They realized how generous Su Binglan was to her employees. The father- son duo could imagine their employees’ excitement when they delivered the news the following day.

The duo would also feel good when giving the employees their year-end gifts.

That was because Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian were in charge of the winery.

Su Binglan had other vital matters she would usually handle. She would usually leave the winerys management to her uncle and cousin. Moreover, the duo did their jobs well, making Su Binglan feel more at ease.

Meanwhile, Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin were responsible for the noodle shop. They were curious as to what Su Binglan would offer their workers. “Binglan, will you be giving the noodle shop workers gifts, too?”

“Of course. I plan to do the same for the noodle shop, tofu factory, embroidery shop, and hotpot restaurants. Everyone will receive two bottles of wine, a box of instant noodles, a set of bedding, and a box of tofu products.”

Everyone in the room was stunned when they heard that. They thought it was too much and that those who did not work for the Su family would be envious.

“All that?!” Su Wenxiu was astounded.

Su Binglan looked at him and suddenly remembered something. She said,

“Your apprentices will receive those gifts, too, Second Brother.”

Fortunately, Su Binglan had included many things in her inventory. If not, she would not have enough for that many employees.

Su Wenwu returned home in the middle of the night and heard his sister’s arrangements. He said, “Sister, is that why you told me to prepare more hotpot seasonings?”

Su Binglan had sent a letter to Su Wenwu long ago. Although Su Wenwu did not know the reason for his sister’s letter, he did as his sister asked. Still, he did not expect her to prepare this many things just to give to the employees as

“It’s also a form of advertising, even though they’re gifts, you know?” Su Binglan smiled. “The best time to visit relatives is during January. No matter how far one’s relatives are, everyone will visit and show off how good our products are.

“That way, it’ll be more convenient for us to promote our businesses. We’ll also expand our market after New Year. Wenwu, you’ll have to open more hotpot restaurants outside of Tenghe Town.”

In the past, Su Binglan had many concerns and had to protect her husband.

She also did not want anyone to know Luo Jin’an was in Su Teng Village. However, she no longer had to worry since regaining her memories and learning about her true ident.i.ty.

Su Binglan wanted to help Lan Ruozhu develop Dingzhou. The duo also wanted to do their best to control the power of other states through economic means.

Su Wenwu felt more motivated when he heard his sister’s words. He said, “Don’t worry, Little Sister. Our hotpot restaurants are popular enough to expand even further.

“Even the Ye family’s young master in the south wants to talk business with me and wants me to open a hotpot restaurant there..”
