Chapter 211 Workshop Fight
Two months passed in the blink of an eye, and the paper mill produced its first batch of paper.
Because of the experience gained, these papers were all successful.
Moreover, in the past two months, Xiao Siyue has expanded the workshop, dividing it into four areas. In addition to papermaking and book printing, she has also added pen and ink manufacturing, aiming to be a comprehensive enterprise.
However, we haven't done this with brush and ink before; it's still in the experimental stage.
Xiao Siyue, accompanied by her maid and bodyguards, went to the county to look for a shop to open a bookstore.
Things went smoothly; they offered a high price, and the shop was easily purchased.
The shop opened in no time.
This shop became incredibly popular in Anyuan County. Thanks to the promotion by Xiao Siyue's brothers, and the fact that the students in the academy already knew about Xuan paper, they went on a buying spree after learning from Xiao Sining and the others that a shop had opened in the county.
The Xuan paper in the workshop sold out in just a few days, leaving Xiao Siyue somewhat dumbfounded.
It wasn't this exaggerated when we were in Qianyuan County.
She had originally planned to open branches in other counties, but this plan had to be put on hold for the time being, otherwise there would be nothing to sell when the shops opened.
Xiao Siyue increased the wages of the workers in the workshop and asked them to speed up production.
After that, the shops in the county limited the number of purchases.
That's how they managed to keep the shop afloat.
Gradually, the shop added writing brushes and ink to its inventory, and the students gradually got used to using them. With the products from Songyue Study, Songyue Study retained its customers.
Everything was going smoothly until this day brought her a big surprise.
Xiao Qinian had just woken up from his afternoon nap when a maid rushed into Xiao Siyue's room.
"Something terrible has happened, Miss." The voice came back before she even arrived.
Xiao Siyue frowned and asked, "Lan Yi, go and see what happened that's causing all this shouting."
Before long, Lan Yi led the person in.
"What happened? Why are you in such a hurry?" Xiao Siyue asked, looking at the unfamiliar maid in front of her.
"Miss, something's happened at the workshop. A fight has broken out, and people have been injured." The maid knew the situation was serious and quickly spoke up.
"What? They're fighting like this? Who's injured?" Xiao Siyue was shocked. Her eyes, which had been a little dazed from just waking up, suddenly widened.
The workshop is full of familiar faces from the village, how could a fight have broken out?
"Miss, I don't know either." The maid was told by others and then asked to speak with Xiao Siyue.
"Okay, I see, you go down first."
Xiao Siyue quickly had Lan Yi do her makeup and then hurriedly left the room.
I ran into Grandpa Xiao as soon as I went out.
"Yue'er," "Grandpa," the two exchanged a glance and then headed toward the workshop.
When Xiao Siyue arrived at the workshop, she was furious.
The workshop was in complete chaos, with the two sides still fighting.
"Stop it, all of you! Pull them apart!" Xiao Siyue shouted.
Perhaps seeing Xiao Siyue and her group arrive, the fighting finally stopped.
Looking at them, Xiao Siyue realized that she recognized the two who were fighting the most fiercely, and they were quite familiar with each other.
It was Xiao Ming's wife and Granny Liu from the village. He just remembered that there weren't any of these two working in the workshop. Why were they here instead of at home?
"What happened? Why are they fighting? Can anyone tell me?" Although Xiao Siyue was a junior, because the workshop belonged to her, even if she spoke in a bad tone, these people didn't dare to say anything.
No one answered Xiao Siyue; everyone kept their heads down.
"Are you all not working properly? Is the work too easy? Or do you just not want to do it anymore?" Xiao Siyue's words startled everyone. Such good workers, and the pay is high, how could they not want to work?
Everyone looked at Xiao Siyue with concern, wondering what would happen if she didn't want them anymore.
I felt really regretful. How could they have been so impulsive? How could they have started fighting?
"Neither of you want to say, right? Then you two tell me, if you're not workers from the workshop, what are you doing here?" Xiao Siyue asked, pointing at Xiao Ming's wife and Granny Liu.
The two looked at Xiao Siyue's serious face and dared not speak.
Seeing that the two were not speaking, Xiao Siyue directly called out to Xiao Ming and Liu Pozi's son, Liu happy, who were both workers in the workshop.
"What's going on? Why did your family come to the workshop to fight?" Both men were young and tall, but although they were much taller than Xiao Siyue, for some reason, Xiao Siyue seemed to be much shorter.
"Yue'er, what happened?" In the end, it was Xiao Shan, the village chief's son, who came out to explain the whole story.
It turned out that today, while they were working, Granny Liu barged in, rushed up to Xiao Ming, and slapped him across the face.
Everyone was stunned by this scene; no one expected that Granny Liu would do such a thing.
"Xiao Ming, you bastard, don't you care about your wife? How dare she beat my daughter-in-law so badly she can't get up!" Granny Liu said, continuing to punch and kick Xiao Ming.
The crowd quickly went up and pulled Granny Liu away.
Xiao Ming was also completely bewildered, not knowing what had happened.
"Old Liu, what are you saying? How could my wife hit your daughter-in-law? What nonsense are you spouting? You're the one who hit me!" After realizing what had happened, Xiao Ming touched his bleeding lip and glared at Old Liu.
At this moment, Granny Liu's son rushed over: "Mother, what are you saying? What happened to my wife?"
When Granny Liu saw Liu happy, she immediately cried out, "Son, it's Xiao Ming's wife! She beat your wife so badly that she can't get up from the ground! You must avenge your wife!"
Upon hearing this, Liu happy's anger flared up, and ignoring Granny Xiao, he raised his fist at Xiao Ming.
"How dare you let your wife hit my wife? I'll beat you to death!"
Xiao Ming had just been beaten by Granny Liu, so how could he wait for Liu happy to beat him up? Besides, he didn't even know if the matter was true or not, and he was beaten for no reason. He was not willing to be outdone and started fighting back with Liu happy.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the others quickly went to find Xiao Ming's wife.
When Xiao Ming's wife heard that Granny Liu had hit her husband, she couldn't stand it anymore and rushed over.
Upon seeing Granny Liu, they were like enemies meeting again, and the two began to fight.
Seeing that the fight was getting out of hand, others rushed to break it up. Somehow, those who were trying to break up the fight ended up getting involved and started fighting themselves.
In the end, it turned out like this, and some people were even injured.
Having no other choice, they hurriedly went to the Xiao family to report the incident, fearing that further fighting might result in someone's death.
