Chapter 98: New Industry Development

Taoli Village, Zhao family.

Cui Juxiu hurried into Li Qionghua's room, "Sister-in-law, I heard that Lin Xi went to Dafeng Village again."

Li Qionghua jumped up from her chair in shock, "When did this happen?"

"Just yesterday." Cui Juxiu said.

"No, how did you know?"

"From what Wang Xiaoling said, her family goes to town to sell steamed buns every day."

Li Qionghua frowned, "It's strange, why is there no news from Lamei?"

Could it be that my cousin was busy and didn't have time to tell me, "Do you know what they talked about?"

"I don't know about that." Cui Juxiu said.

"No, I have to go ask." Li Qionghua hurried out the door.

"Sister-in-law, talk to my brother first!" Cui Juxiu shouted from behind.

After a day, Li Qionghua finally arrived at Dafeng Village. With the guidance of the villagers, she successfully found Li Lamei's home.

The little girl at the door led Li Qionghua into the kitchen, and she finally saw her cousin Li Lamei whom she had not seen for a long time.

"Lamei, you're busy." Li Qionghua smiled and helped pick the leaves.

When Li Lamei saw Li Qionghua coming over, she did not receive her warmly. Instead, she took the dish from her hand and said, "I can do it myself."

There was an obvious distance between his words and actions.

Li Qionghua was stunned. She had never expected Li Lamei to react like this. She laughed dryly and said, "Lamei, what's wrong? Are you not living well here?"

Li Lamei raised her head and stared at Li Qionghua. "How can it be bad? I have food and clothes, so what's wrong with that?"

She spoke quickly and a little chokingly. Li Qionghua felt that something was wrong and decided not to talk to Li Lamei about this.

"Lamei, have you got any results on the matter I asked you to find out for me?" Li Qionghua asked.

Speaking of this, Li Lamei once again recalled what happened at the headman's house yesterday, and looked at Li Qionghua, "I said, why do you have to know why Lin Xi came to our village?"

Li Qionghua was stunned by Li Lamei's question, "I, I'm not afraid that she will tell others about the method."

"I think you are not afraid that others will reveal the secret recipe, but you are afraid that our Dafeng Village will make money and that my family will live better than you!" Li Lamei said angrily.

Yesterday she was scolded by several people at the head of the village. She was angry at the time, but then she thought about it.

What Jia Zheng said makes sense. Boss Lin came here to help Dafeng Village. What does it have to do with Li Qionghua?

In addition, Lin Xi said that Li Qionghua had some grudge against her, and Li Qionghua must be using her to deal with Lin Xi, and she was just foolish enough to be used by others.

"Sister, you don't have to say anything. I don't know anything about what happened yesterday." Li Lamei picked up the basket and walked out.

Li Qionghua followed her all the way, "Sister, have you forgotten that we grew up together? I even made clothes for you."

Li Lamei put the basket on the ground and said, "Sister, if you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have remembered that your family learned the cotton-growing technology from my family. You've made some money from selling cotton over the years, and I've done enough for you as your younger sister. Now, you'd better not get involved in our family affairs."

If the two sisters continue talking like this, they might start quarreling.

Li Qionghua came in a hurry and could not stay for long, so she had no choice but to return home first.

Although I didn't find out what Lin Xi was doing, he must have been trying to make Dafeng Village rich, otherwise Lamei would never have treated me like this.

Shuer school, bedroom.

Lin Xi has been living in the county town these days, and Xiao Yongyan naturally stayed with him as well, as the school was about to start its winter vacation.

This system was proposed by Lin Xi, but during the winter vacation, students who cannot go back home can still apply to live in the school.

"Why did you choose to help Dafeng Village this time?" Xiao Yongyan asked casually while holding Lin Xi in his arms.

Lin Xi: "I just said that I could make cotton cloth and sell it, but there's nothing else."

Whether it could succeed or not was not something she, Lin Xi, could do.

"Then why did you introduce Tang Xuyang to the head of the village?" Xiao Yongyan smiled secretly. His wife had obviously done a good thing, but she was too embarrassed to admit it.

"Tang Xuyang runs a security company. When they sell cloth in the future, they will need someone to transport it." Lin Xi said stubbornly.

She thought that Tang Xuyang had strong connections and could serve as a protective umbrella for Dafeng Village.

In short, Lin Xi refused to admit it, and Xiao Yongyan couldn't expose him.

"But the incident in Dafeng Village gave me some new ideas," Lin Xi said, "The conditions in Taoli Village are not suitable for growing cotton, but I saw many mulberry trees growing on the mountains around the village. I think we can develop the silkworm breeding industry."

Xiao Yongyan was always happy to see Lin Xi's efforts and asked, "What's the point of raising silkworms?"

"I can make a silk quilt!" Lin Xi thought that when she moved, she spent more than two thousand yuan on a silk quilt.

If it costs so much in modern times when industry is mature, the value it brought in ancient times must have been higher, not less.

Xiao Yongyan had only heard of cotton quilts before, and had no idea what silk quilts were.

Lin Xi smiled mysteriously, "You'll know once you do it."

In order to start his silkworm breeding business, the first thing Lin Xi did when he returned to the village was to find the head of the village and said that he wanted to rent the hilltop next to the village.

It was also the first time that Zhao Tan knew that the mountain could be occupied, but he couldn't figure out what Lin Xi meant by doing this.

After a moment's silence, Li Zheng Zhao said, "The surrounding mountains belong to the village. I can't make the decision alone. It's winter now and I can't do anything. How about this, let's talk about this matter in the spring."

Lin Xi had long felt that Zhao Tan had been targeting her recently. If this matter was not settled today, she felt that the possibility of it being settled later would be even lower.

Thinking of this, Lin Xi did not force Zhao Tan, but turned around and went to the Ma family.

Now the pig farm in Linxi is mainly managed by the Ma family, who have some influence in the village.

After hearing Lin Xi's idea of ​​renting the mountain, Ma Shanfeng said, "This is a good thing. Why not admit it? Since it is the village's industry, taking the rent can also benefit the village. I agree!"

After saying that, Ma Shanfeng went out to mobilize the people in the factory.

Word of mouth spreads from one person to ten people, and from ten people to a hundred people. There are no secrets in this small mountain village.

When Zhao Tan went out, he saw a lot of people gathered in front of his house.

"What are you all doing at my doorstep?" Zhao Tan couldn't help but ask.

The villagers laughed and said, "Village head, we heard that Lin Xi wants to rent the hilltop. Since it is the village's property, just rent it to her. We have no objection."

"Yes, Lin Xi said that the annual rent is one hundred taels. With this money, can we repair the roads in the village?"

Everyone was talking at once, and Zhao Tan was speechless.

If he said now that he couldn't rent the house to Lin Xi, it would seem that he, as the head of the village, was really against Lin Xi.

Forget it, even if Lin Xi is capable, can't Zhao Tan just admit defeat this time?
