Xu Jing pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Could it be that Mr. Zhou gives them a generous housing subsidy?"
However, upon further consideration, it seemed unlikely. Everyone who opens a business aims for profit. With so many employees at Tianyi Hall, the majority of whom Zhou Qi had brought from Anping County, providing each with a substantial housing subsidy would significantly cut into their profits. It's not that the Zhou Family couldn't afford it, but doing so would reduce their profits by a large margin.
In such cases, the employer usually gives a small stipend. After all, there are many ways to rent a house. Those housing subsidies might not suffice for an individual, but pooling together to rent a courtyard might just be enough.
However, according to Cheng Xiao, after Li Shiheng and Shi Wenfeng went home, no one knew what they did, indicating that they were not sharing a rental with people they knew.
