Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

much.
Don’t worry! Everyone is different.
I can tell the difference, you don’t have to be concerned.
Besides, we still have a contract, right?”

Su Jin couldn’t help but laugh.
“Miss Lian is really a cheerful person! Oh, Liu Xia, she is really confused.”

Lian Fang Zhou smiled but didn’t answer this.
“I’m not so petty, its just breaking the contract.
The money has been paid and from now on, I will pull up the bridge.
I don’t want them to take revenge behind my back! As long as they don’t provoke me, I naturally won’t provoke them.”

She still had a lot of things to do.
Did she have the time to be angry with Liu Xia and Tian Si? Even Boss Wang, she didn’t take to heart.

“I didn’t think so,” Su Jin said hurriedly, “I trust Miss Lian!”

Though Lian Fang Zhou was calm while sending Tian Si and Liu Xia away, she was still a little disappointed and lost.

They were ones she had brought in and trusted.

If she couldn’t keep them, it was also her failure.
To say she didn’t mind it at all, it was impossible!

Walking outside to the red locust tree, which was growing better and better, she leaned against the tree and watched the sunset gradually set in the sky.

…

Tian Si and Liu Xia went to Boss Wang one after another.
Boss Wang and Boss Xiao were both very happy and even held a banquet for them, with Madam Wang to accompany Liu Xia.

Tian Si and Liu Xia had never received this kind of treatment and felt very grateful to Boss Wang, secretly vowing to make career.
Not only for their own future but also to repay them with the gift of knowledge.

However, when it was time to get down to business, the four people realized that things were actually not that simple.

They had neither the tools to spin the cotton nor the tools to make the quilts!

In fact, as long as the cotton was turned into a thread, an ordinary spinning wheel could still be used.
The problem was that there was no way to even make cotton thread.

Boss Wang and Boss Xiao looked at each other helplessly, most of their previous ambitions disappearing all at once.

If you wanted to do great things, you must first sharpen your tools.
But they didn’t even have tools, so what could they do?”

“I, I thought you already had tools here…” Tian Si said stupidly, his heart cold.

Liu Xia frowned unconsciously and glanced at him dissatisfied.

Only he would say such a stupid thing!

“We were negligent.” Liu Xia sighed.
“I didn’t expect this.
Cotton is different from linen and silk, so of course it would need different tools.”

Liu Xia’s tone and humbleness made Boss Wang and Boss Xiao’s expressions ease a little bit but though their faces were softer, they were still unhappy in their hearts.

In fact, Tian Si and Liu Xia couldn’t be blamed either.
How could their superiors tell them what was arranged by the master?

When Tian Si and the others were working, all of their tools were ready made.
He had taken it for granted that such tools could be found anywhere.
How could he imagine they had been made by special order?

As for Liu Xia, she was normally quite reserved and typically her nose was up in the air.
Not to mention, Lian Fang Zhou would not have allowed them to be too interested in things outside their own affairs.
All she knew was her own work.

“Since this matter has reached this stage, we can only discuss a way out.” Boss Xiao sighed softly and smiled: “I wonder if either of you have any good ideas?”
