Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 1160 The First Year of Fu'an Province

Lu Jiayi took a few breaths.

Then he took the water bottle from his waist and took a sip: "Young master, why won't you let me call you master?"

Are you afraid I'll marry you?

Chu Chen coughed a few times after hearing this, choked by the smoke.

This girl is great in every way: she's a good shot, has fair skin, a great figure, and is beautiful. It's just that she talks like she has no self-control.

"Young master, I also heard that you and Sister Mu Qing are living together. When are you two going to have a baby?"

"Many people wanted to live with Sister Mu Qing before, but none of them succeeded."

"But you've already married Sister Muqing, so marrying me now wouldn't be much of a difference."

"My brother already has four wives."

Chu Chen choked on the smoke, tears streaming down his face.

He turned and glared at her: "The most important thing for a sniper is to be quiet. Can you please stop talking?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jiayi immediately clung to Chu Chen's arm in a coquettish manner, saying, "Young Master, please don't be angry."

Oh dear, this old man can't take it anymore! It seems that modern clothing still needs to be widespread, and we need to wear glasses!

Yes, yes, I'll go back and find Ji Muqing and ask her to explain it to me.

After observing from the hilltop for a while, Chu Chen led Lu Jiayi down the mountain and back to the villa in Fu'an.

Inside the villa, Chu Chen, Ji Muqing, and Lu Jiayi sat around a table after dinner.

Chu Chen said to Ji Muqing, "Is the weaving factory back to normal? And the garment factory too?"

“Young master, everything is normal. We can now meet the needs of most people. All the clothing styles you brought out are being produced one after another.”

After listening, Chu Chen had a thought and took out a set of clothes that looked like an eye mask.

"Um, you can take a look at this outfit; it suits you quite well."

After saying that, Chu Chen went up to the rooftop alone, brewed himself a pot of tea, and leisurely drank it.

Ji Muqing held the set of clothes, looked at them from left to right, and was about to ask Chu Chen what they were when...

Suddenly, he saw Lu Jiayi in front of him and immediately understood.

Then, blushing, she said to Lu Jiayi, "Jiayi, come with me to the room so I can help you try on some clothes."

"Trying on clothes? Sister Muqing, what clothes?"

"Oh, you'll see once you come with me."

A short while later, seeing Lu Jiayi's flushed face and the perfectly fitting clothes, he asked, "Jiayi, did the young master take your measurements?"

"What are you saying, Sister Mu Qing? I'd like to, but Young Master seems quite afraid of me!"

Ji Muqing nodded in agreement. This Chu Chen seemed to have always been lukewarm towards her.

She felt very close, but almost a year has passed and their distance is still positive, which she finds hard to understand.

Little did she know that Chu Chen went back to water the fields every few days, leaving no extra water.

A month later, a new type of clothing was added to the garment factory, which made all the women cheer.

These clothes not only allow them to wear light clothing in hot weather, but also make them more upright, and they look much more energetic.

Three months later, Chu Chen counted the days and called Ji Muqing over.

Do you celebrate the Chinese New Year?

What is Chinese New Year?

Okay, there's no such thing as Chinese New Year in this world. In that case, I'll celebrate Chinese New Year with you.

So I immediately explained to him the origin of the Chinese New Year.

However, he didn't mention anything about the Nian beast; instead, he made up his own story.

Upon hearing this, Ji Muqing immediately considered the benefits of celebrating the New Year.

"You mean, through this Spring Festival, everyone can take a break, and we can promote it to make people feel happier and encourage them to work harder in the coming year."

"Um...that's roughly the idea."

Ji Muqing acted very quickly. After confirming the date with Chu Chen, she sent people to promote the policy extensively throughout Fu'an and also established an annual leave system.

At Chu Chen's suggestion, the annual leave was extended from December 26th to January 16th.

For a full twenty days, under the arrangement of Ji Muqing and Chu Chen, all kinds of products with a festive atmosphere were scattered all over the streets. Everyone also took out the money they had earned in factories, the army and various other fields to exchange for all kinds of supplies.

Previously, everyone in the small basin lived a communal life.

Over time, many people became complacent, leading to a severe lack of productivity and a poor standard of living.

However, this change began after Ji Muqing and her classmates finished their classes and started implementing reforms.

After more than half a year of trial and error, coupled with the experience gained from the Galaxy Realm, the results were quite significant.

Those who are willing to work hard gradually adapt to the life of "the more you work, the more you earn," and they enjoy it immensely.

The development of the times will always eliminate some people, and those eliminated are those who are lazy, greedy, and want to take advantage of the collective.

At this moment, because of a year, the difference between hard work and laziness is completely clear.

Those lazy people, seeing others carrying large and small bags of things into their own homes, are slowly changing their mindset.

On New Year's Eve, inside the villa, Chu Chen and a group of people were drinking and having fun, and the drunkard was so drunk that he was dancing wildly in front of the table.

Ji Muqing and Lu Jiayi both looked at Chu Chen with rosy smiles, which made Chu Chen feel uneasy.

During the meal, Ji Muqing leaned close to Chu Chen's ear and said, somewhat drunk but with concern, "Chu Chen, if this continues, we'll still be short of people."

Chu Chen nudged her: "I already have a plan. Tonight, we won't talk about work, we'll just have fun!"

"Hahaha, good, I'm happy, look at Young Master Qingxuan!"

Just then, Lu Jiayi also came over: "Master!"

"Don't call me master."

"I know you're afraid that if I call you 'master,' you won't treat me well..."

Chu Chen quickly covered her mouth after hearing this: "Alright, alright, stop talking. Come on, everyone, let's have another drink."

"Hey, don't talk... listen to me..."

As night deepened, Chu Chen broke free from his arms, thinking to himself that if they hadn't been so drunk, the night wouldn't have passed so easily.

Looking at the two women sprawled out on the sofa, Chu Chen shook his head. He should have known better than to persuade them to drink so much. Now, they can go to sleep!

The next morning, Chu Chen was woken up early by Ji Muqing and Lu Jiayi.

Then, following the usual practice of the Galaxy Realm, they drove around the streets, handing out red envelopes to the children and expressing their appreciation to the staff who were still working on the front lines.

Seeing that everyone outside was dressed in the clothes of the Galaxy Realm made Chu Chen very happy.

This means that he took his first step into this world, stepping out into the world, in just one year.

After the Lantern Festival, Chu Chen officially answered Ji Muqing's question from New Year's Eve, which was to solve the population problem.
