"Stop being the butler and just help out for now. We'll deal with tonight's matter later!" Yang Bingshan left these harsh words and strode away.
Liang Mei'er quickly followed, softening her tone and coaxing him until his anger finally subsided.
Regarding this outcome, the Wen Family's disappointment was evident. The situation between Liang Mei'er and Yang Butler was so clear that even Yang Bingshan could choose to avoid it, leaving them speechless.
The troubles at Yang Residence kept piling up, seemingly endless.
At this moment in Ten Li Pu, a festive atmosphere filled the air, presenting a brand new look to everyone.
Zhang Wuliang occasionally patrolled with a pipe in hand, saying, "Big Kid, practice well. The men of Ten Li Pu are all remarkable figures. If you need anything in the future, come find me; White Out is just a butler."
"Qingxi is quite busy and will be responsible for business negotiations. As for me, I'm part of the team too. From now on, we at Ten Li Pu need to present ourselves well and ensure no one can find fault with us."
"More importantly, the houses we build are beautiful, and there’s plenty of work to be done. Big Kid, work hard! Next year, everyone will buy new cars. We're not just building houses in the Village; we also have plans for the town, and there's still half a year to go."
Zhang Wuliang stood tall and confident at the front.
The workers below shared the same spirited demeanor.
"Here with Big Kid, if anyone asks questions, make sure to answer carefully and seriously. We can't be arrogant; we still have business to conduct in the future."
"Yes!" everyone replied in unison.
"Alright, today we will focus on Big Kid's coordination skills. This time, we will assign tasks to Big Kid. After all we've been through, it's clear that while we have many people, we often seem disorganized. Have you thought about why that is?"
Ever since Liu Qingxi's words had awakened him last time, Yang Bingshan was filled with energy. After observing for some time, he noticed issues arising during the construction process.
Most of the time, one person was laying bricks while another needed to put up beams or add structural columns. Someone would drop their tools and rush over to help.
Leaving behind a pile of tasks, when they returned to their main work after helping out, it was already too late, and they were urged to quickly finish building the wall.
Thus, the efficiency was not very high.
Just at this moment, the houses that had started construction were completed. Zhang Wuliang suggested taking a break to reorganize, which led to the bustling scene currently seen at the Threshing Ground.
"From my observations these past few days, I've figured out what Big Kid is thinking and have a general understanding of what skills you all excel in. So today, let's specifically divide the work; everyone can start by making suggestions."
As soon as Zhang Wuliang finished speaking, a lively discussion broke out.
"Hey, I think I'm the best at wall building right now. Can I focus on that?"
"Yes, yes! I'm familiar with adding Structural Columns; you can assign that to me."
"I'm good at..."
Finally, one person summarized, "Village Chief, I think we should let Big Kid choose first. Everyone can select based on their actual situation, and if there's still uncertainty, we can discuss it together."
Zhang Wuliang nodded; after all, Big Kid had more ideas. However, he had already thought of this approach.
Raising his hand, he took out a ledger-like item. "This is for recording everyone's choices. Come on, let's take it one by one."
Zhang Wuliang sat on a stool and began to record each person's selection meticulously with a pen.
In the end, a few people were still uncertain about their choices. Zhang Wuliang glanced at the Class List of applicants and noticed that only the new technique of Structural Columns required more manpower. However, ironically, very few people had signed up for it.
Naturally, based on the distribution situation, they would be assigned to the most scarce positions available.
"I'll say a couple more things. Since we have already allocated tasks according to the plan, unless necessary, there's no need to run around while working. If you want to do this and that, in the end, you won't do either well. Do you understand?"
"Got it, Village Chief, you can rest assured."
After spending so much time on planning, it must be made worthwhile.
Liu Qingxi did not expect Zhang Wuliang to be so serious outside of meetings; he was quite earnest now.
It seems bringing him into the team was the right decision; he could see through the essence of problems at a glance and quickly came up with practical plans.
"Village Chief, don't mention it. Now that you're here, I can relax a lot; you should have come earlier!"
"Haha, Qingxi, don't worry. Since I'm here, I won't give up easily. I'm still waiting for the Construction Team to travel all over the country."
Moreover, news spreads quickly; Ten Li Eight Villages are very curious about Liu Qingxi. More importantly, she is supporting a child’s education, which is not something ordinary people do.
Aside from these villagers, many townspeople are also watching closely. Liu Qingxi's rise brings good news to everyone.
Those who want to build houses are all waiting for Liu Qingxi's results, carefully observing safety issues before placing orders.
With Zhang Wuliang's arrangements, the next phase of construction can obviously proceed smoothly and at a much faster pace.
Looking at the chaotic Yang Family, although Yang Bingshan has deep suspicions about Liang Mei'er, he has not made it obvious.
Yang Butler has taken off his exclusive attire for the first time in years and is forced to step down.
As a handyman, there’s no need for fine silk and satin; he wears the same clothes as the common workers.
Yang Bingshan still went out drinking, drowning his sorrows in alcohol, while at home and work, a mountain of tasks awaited him.
In the Yang Residence, having experienced the life of a true servant, Yang Butler was physically and mentally exhausted.
This was still because he had accumulated a lot of small grievances over time and had not dared to assign him too heavy a workload; he was only responsible for watering the flowers and plants. After this, his round body collapsed onto the bed like a ball. This was truly not work meant for a person.
He couldn't continue like this; if he did, he might lose his life.
Suddenly, he had a moment of inspiration and sprang up. Dressed like a servant, he did not attract anyone's attention.
He quietly circled around from the overgrown area at the back and stealthily entered Liang Mei'er's courtyard.
Inside, Liang Mei'er was calculating accounts when she was startled by his sudden appearance. After recognizing him, she let out a long sigh of relief.
"What are you doing here? Didn't the master already spare you? Why are you back?"
"Hey, why am I here? Where's the money you promised me?" Yang Butler wished nothing more than to bring Liang Mei'er down with him.
Liang Mei'er intended to cut off all ties with him, but how could Yang Butler agree? They had conspired together; why should he not get his share?
She bit her lip hard: "We let you go; you found a secluded place, and I would give you the money. But now, you're safe, and the second one didn't hit."
