I’m here for the old man, and I’ll give you more rewards. Thank you for your support, thank you for your support!

It's New Year's Eve again.

On New Year's Eve last year, Li Chao had just come out of the Yongzhou prison and no one came to greet him. He was removed from office and returned to Bashang, facing the wind and snow, and was cold and hungry all the way.

On New Year's Eve this year, Li San was already the General of the Left Guard, the Chief Governor of Longyou Road, the Governor of Liangzhou, the State of Shangzhu, the State of Guanglu, and the Duke of Wu'an County.

The Zhang Mansion in Wubenfang became the Li Mansion, and there were also seven gatehouses and seven plaques written by the imperial pen.

Not to mention, there are traffic every day in the mansion, and there are endless people coming to visit.

The whole house is particularly festive.

Early in the morning of New Year's Eve, Li's mansion looked up and down. After lunch, Cui Yingying was responsible for giving rewards to the servants and slaves at home.

The various farms, shops, workshops, etc. outside have already been on holiday. The Zhang family's long-time workers, shopkeepers, shopkeepers, craftsmen, and apprentices have all paid their wages. In addition, they have received an additional month's wage as a reward for the end of the year, and there are also red envelopes sent by Zhang Chao and Cui Yingying.

People in the mansion don’t give rewards until the afternoon of New Year’s Eve.

The rewards were also received by the housekeepers inside and outside the Li family, and the managers, and these people also came to receive a big red envelope.

The Li family made a lot of money last year, and Li Chao was promoted to the title. The Li family's industry has risen and become more prosperous. The family's fields have increased, workshops have expanded, and shops have also increased.

As the family business flourished, Li Chao asked Cui Yingying to take more money to send red envelopes.

How does a family's centripetal force and cohesion come from? Money must also account for a very important proportion. Everyone needs to eat, dress and support their families. If they can get more wages, receive more red envelopes, and even get some dividends for their shareholding, they will be more grateful, and will work harder next year, and will be more proactive in protecting the interests of the Li family in the future.

The accounts have been calculated long ago and the money has been withdrawn.

There are boxes of silk cloth in the yard.

Although Li Chao can directly send them bank tickets to the bank, which is convenient, sending rewards is still more impactful in the physical goods.

Li Chao, his father and Cui Yingying were also sitting in the hall and gave the rewards in person.

The managers have gained a lot this year. Foreign managers all pay dividends. This is a dry stock. They are paid according to the income of the industries they manage, and then they are distributed to them at the agreed ratio.

"Manager Cui, thank you for your contribution to the Li family and Fumanlou for the past year!"

Zhang Chao smiled and said to Cui Cong who stood in front of him that the former restaurant manager of the Cui family is now the manager of the restaurant of the Li family. He is considered to be the manager of Cui Yingying's dowry industry. Cui Yingying's dowry is still hers, but it is still managed uniformly, but the final profit is divided into Cui Yingying's name.

Cui Yingying didn't care about these things anymore, but Zhang Chao still insisted that this was a power for women in the Tang Dynasty. Just like in later generations, after getting married, if you register your wife's name on the property certificate, it will always make your wife happy.

The Li family's current style of conduct is still marked by Li Chao, such as both public property and private property. Public property belongs to the owner of the Li family. Li Chao has a share, his father has a share, and Lan'er, Lian'er and others have a share.

Private property is the private property of each Li family, and has its own industries. For example, Cui Yingying's dowry, Li Chao gave it to the farms and shops under the names of his father and Qi Niang. This is not about splitting up the family, but it is more convenient, and the use of money on private property is more free and convenient.

However, all industries are managed in a unified manner.

The Li family gives the managers very preferential treatment, and they have dividends from their shares. Even apprentices can enjoy certain dividends. Basically, they are the job shareholding, and in the corresponding positions, there will be a corresponding shareholding ratio. After promotion or resignation, they will be adjusted. Those who leave will no longer enjoy dividends.

This kind of job-based dividends is a good incentive method.

The Li family seems to have put out a lot of money, but the effect is very good.

Li Chao handed Cui Liangcong a list, and there were a few accounts on it, which clearly stated the dividends Cui Cong deserved, as well as rewards, rewards and other items, which were very clear.

Cui Cong was used to this kind of table and believed in the fairness of the Li family very much. His eyes were swept to the bottom, and a very pleasant number appeared there, which was much more than he had expected in advance.

Cui Cong smiled with satisfaction.

"Thank you, Mrs. Rongguo, and Mrs. Bo!"

This is a sincere thank you. I worked for the Li family for a year and also took care of Fumanlou, but my income was more than ten times that of the previous one. This income allowed him to live a decent life in Chang'an. He had long been planning to buy a larger house, and now he has money.

After receiving the order, thanking Sanlang, Cui Cong walked aside, where there were accounts and cashiers, one in charge of the accounts and the other in charge of the money, and the two sides were separated. After handing over the order and checking, the servants came with the money.

It is really carried, copper coins, silk, and a lot of them.

The managers of various industries lined up and stood outside the hall, watching Cui Cong lead a few servants to carry out their dividends and rewards, and they all congratulated each other.

Compared with foreign managers, they have clear achievements and directly pay dividends based on profits. The managers in the house do not have this dividend. However, the money they get is not less than them. They directly receive rewards, which is also very generous.

There are also a lot of rewards from the servants, maids and mothers in the mansion.

After the lively reward, the managers did not rush to leave.

Everyone was waiting for Sanlang to give blessings.

Since Li Chao wrote Spring Festival couplets and posted the word "Fu" on Ba last year, this year this trend has swept Chang'an. Chang'an has also begun to post Spring Festival couplets and write the word "Fu".

There are too many managers, and Li Chao can only give each one the word "Fu".

Everyone lined up and excitedly surrounded Li Chao to write the word "Fu". Every time they wrote one, everyone rushed to grab it, and they got the excited thanks.

After everyone got a piece of Fu, Li Chao, his father and the family manager continued to write to the Li family.

There are pairs of couplets, and the word "Fu" is a character.

The managers and servants posted them together with a smile.

On the door and on the pillars, there was a bright red area.

Some servants began to hang red lanterns at home, and the New Year atmosphere became stronger and stronger.

Qiuyue and Dongqing have become the kitchen managers of Zhang's mansion, and are directing the people in the kitchen to stew pig hands and cook New Year's Eve dinner.

After writing the word "Fu" and pasting the Spring Festival couplets, Li Chao asked someone to carry two large boxes up.

"This is the door god newly printed by the printing house. Each of you takes two pieces back and pastes them on the door, so that you can bless you to have a safe and safe year."

The box is open, and there is a bright red door god inside.

Two powerful generals were printed on the red paper.

A literate manager discovered that this god was not the traditional Shentu, Yulei, but Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong.

"These two are my martial gods of the Tang Dynasty. We are protecting your family."

So everyone realized that it was not a mistake, but two martial gods became the new gate gods. Everyone accepted them with a smile, two pictures for each person.

After everyone got the door god, took the word "Fu" and left happily in a carriage and horse loaded with rewards, the mansion became a little quieter.

Li Chao was lying on the rocking chair, happily enjoying the rich New Year atmosphere and family affection.

A whole family is happy, neither lacking clothes nor wearing, nor lacking respect, and not having to worry about being bullied. Such a life is enough.

He even lost the motivation to struggle. He was like this, so what else could he ask for.

"Sanlang, someone from the Zhao family in Nanyuan is here and I want to take Miss Zhao back." The manager reported.

"Well, it's the Chinese New Year, and Miss Zhao should go home and reunite. Arrange a carriage and horse to take Miss Zhao home. Remember to help her transport the money and silk together."

Zhao Siniang has been in the Li family for more than half a year. She is a good helper of Hongshi and maintains the house in Chang'an. Zhang Chao gave everyone a reward and specially prepared a generous gift for Zhao Siniang to thank him, which is a little thicker than an ordinary manager.

"Miss Zhao refused to go back, so she even asked someone to drive his brother away."

Li Chao was stunned for a moment and thought about the reason why Zhao Siniang left the Zhao family and came to the Li family. Because the price of grain rose, the Zhao family came to ask Li Chao to subsidize them for the difference. Zhang Chao refused such unreasonable requests. The Zhao family father and son blamed Zhao Siniang and wanted her to come to talk to Li Chao.

In a fit of anger, Zhao Siniang left home and arrived at the Li family.

Li Chao asked someone to invite Zhao Siniang over.

"They were indeed wrong with the original situation, but the matter has passed. Forget it, after all, you are still a family, and that's your father and brother." Li Chao persuaded.

Zhao Siniang's eyes were red.

"They don't see me, my daughter and sister, who did everything like that in the past. Now they just saw Sanlang, you are famous for your success, so they came shamelessly again. If you really want to pick me up, I'll be in Chang'an for half a year, and they'll come once."

This kind of thing is really ugly.

Zhao Siniang refused to go back to the Zhao family, and she no longer regarded it as the boss in her heart.

"If Sanlang is willing to continue taking in, I will be a manager in the Li family in the future."

"If you want to stay, our Li family will be very happy. But you are still young, so I will pay attention to it and introduce one to you when you meet a suitable one."

Zhao Siniang shook her head and thanked Zhang Chao and left with kindness.

Li Chao called the housekeeper, "You go and tell the Zhao family that you should not bother Si Niang in the future. You also told them that Si Niang is good here, so that they don't have to worry about it. Well, you can give them a few items brought back from Taozhou to them as a New Year gift."

There are actually too many people like the Zhao family.

Therefore, Zhang Chao was too lazy to be as stingy as Zhao Siniang and to be serious with them.

The floor kang was laid, and the hall was warm. Even if you didn’t have a warm kang, you were lying on the rocking chair, which was very warm. It was so warm that it made people sleepy. At this moment, Zhang Chao didn’t want to think about anything and care about it. He just wanted to stay at home and spend the New Year happily with his family.
