Bab 98: Planning

The next morning, Li Yu asked Butcher He to help her buy two big fat pigs and dozens of fish. She also bought cloth and brown sugar from Tongzhou.

Li Yu smiled and said to everyone, "We'll start the holidays from today onwards. I've given out the salary and prepared some New Year goods for everyone. The people of Phoenix Village will have a good year this year."

Everyone looked at the fish, the big fat pig on the chopping board, and the cloth and sugar. They all smiled. "Thanks to Xiaoyu and Mr. Zhou, everyone will have a prosperous fat year."

"Alright, I'll give everyone their wages and New Year goods."

The highest wage received 15 taels of silver given to Chen Yaohui's family. The lowest was seven to eight taels of silver. Li Yu even distributed meat, fish, two pieces of cloth, and two packets of brown sugar to every family.
