having.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan Qi smiled at their happiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It gave him a feeling that he, as the Clan Master, was touching other people’s lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was glad to do so, as long as they worked hard for it and were loyal to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Freeloaders aren’t welcomed, and traitors would be punished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately for him, he didn’t have to take care of such issues yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Words appeared in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Congratulations to host

went to the main hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah Di, prepare the ink and brush.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah Di nodded his head and got to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He unrolled a scroll of paper, laid it flat and held it down with weights, made of jade with carvings of eagles and tigers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he poured some water into the inkstone, used the ink block, and ground the ink in the water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Ah Di did so, Lin Xuan Qi sat down and tried to recall all the rules and regulations he could remember from Earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were rules about basic behaviors that were expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Things like no stealing, fighting among each other and unruly behaviors weren’t tolerated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would be applicable for everyone, whether in the mansion or the factories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And most important of all, everyone had to listen to his orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he thought about the work hours, rest days and remuneration for everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seniority for the workers and servants would have to be established.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not, there wasn’t any motivation for them to work hard, and slacking off would be unavoidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The very first thing he would do was to promote Xue Cong, Yue Jie and Yue Xin to senior servant girls in the mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was going to task them to take care of the new servants after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master Lin, everything is ready.\" Ah Di’s voice brought him out of his thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nodded and picked up a brush.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without much hesitation, he began to write down the rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah Di didn’t know many characters, so he could only watch and marvel at the speed that he was writing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After an incense time, he was finally done.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan Qi put down the brush and stretched his hands, giving out a yawn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood up and took a step back, marveling at his masterpiece.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master Lin, what is this?\" Ah Di asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is something important.\" He said and patted Ah Di on his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah Di’s question reminded him that it had been a long time since they had lessons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master Lin, dinner is ready.\" Xue Cong came into the main hall and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Great timing.\" Lin Xuan Qi said with a huge smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Cong frowned and tilted her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She recalled that he wasn’t feeling that great earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, he was feeling happy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Men are just so unpredictable, she thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted to turn around and walk to the dining hall before she remembered something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her leg froze in midair at the possibility of what would happen when Lin Xuan Qi was happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There would be lessons.\u003C\u002Fp>",1105,"2026-06-03T13:58:56.970Z",1,"novelbin.me","0f7c4dc8ea902f2a1b461c694d1d9123bf3a7b67592169ab6b66dd3c1a5a3dc1","clan-prosperity-starting-with-my-servant-girls-chapter-184","clan-prosperity-starting-with-my-servant-girls-chapter-149",469,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fclan-prosperity-starting-with-my-servant-girls-cover.jpg"]
