Chapter 268 Everyone is Different

Not to mention Uncle Hu, Leader Hu and the other managers, even the villagers working in Zaihu Village looked down on those people.

The people in Zaihu Village all work in an orderly and honest manner. They earn the money they deserve and work happily and steadily. How could they be like these people who have so many tricks up their sleeves?

At first, many villagers in Zaihu Village complained to Hu Ling and Uncle Hu. Hu Ling also noticed something and sneered inwardly. Uncle Hu remained calm and gathered everyone together to reiterate the rules and the consequences of violating them.

It would be fine if those people stopped at this point, but otherwise, he would definitely not let them go.

He repeatedly stressed that face is earned by oneself, not given by others. If someone uses clever tricks and is complacent, thinking that others know nothing about it, then when they lose face, don't blame others for being rude.

Uncle Hu was not surprised at all that this situation occurred.

Not long after arriving here, he realized that the villagers of Zaihu Village, Bajiao Village, and Baijia Village were really nice. The master and his family were lucky to have met only nice people.

However, there are many kinds of people in the world. Now that so many villages have joined in, it is not certain that the people in every village are good.

Even if there is a ten or two percent mixed in, it would still be a disaster.

Of course, that's normal.

Just eliminate it.

Within two or three days, they caught several people in the act. Uncle Hu led his men and personally sent each of them back to their original village, explaining everything in detail.

He would rather cause himself some trouble than let these people take advantage of him.

Otherwise, who knows what lies they'll come up with when they get back? It won't be easy to explain then.

Most of the village heads, clan leaders, elders and other people in charge were quite ashamed and apologized repeatedly. They also sent away honest and trustworthy people to help.

There were also some people who refused to admit it and instead started arguing with Uncle Hu. Their families also threw tantrums and shouted that they were looked down upon, that they were being wronged because they did not give any benefits, that they were being framed as honest people, etc. Uncle Hu ignored them all, explained everything clearly and left.

He didn't argue with them. Their families knew exactly what kind of people they were. As for why they were asked to help, it might be because their families were pestering him so much that he couldn't give in. But if something went wrong, he would have a reason to deal with them.

Sure enough, this situation no longer occurred with the second batch of people sent over.

Aunt Li Shiyi, Widow Qu and the others were all very angry, and angrily complained that those guys were ungrateful and self-indulgent, and had no gratitude at all. They really lived a useless life at such an old age!

Uncle Hu found it amusing, but he knew deep down that not everyone in the world was a good person. The vast majority of the people he met were reasonable, so that was good enough.

Of course, this matter still needs to be continued.

Only by expanding the business as a whole and driving all the villages to become rich, will one's own wealth also increase.

Zhong Jing sent people over several times in early September to transport back batches of sugarcane for seeds. At the same time, batches of white sugar were also shipped to Jiangnan through Zhong Jing at the Guangzhan seaport.

Because the process of making white sugar had to be kept secret, there were less than ten people including Zhao Liya who were doing it. They took their time and did a fine job, and the quantity was limited.

But when the snow-white and crystal-clear sugar is made, it is as pure and flawless as frost and snow. It really makes people like it more and more the more they look at it. It is very pleasing to the eyes!

Taste a little and you will find the sugar flavor is richer and purer.

Every batch of sugar is a pile of shining silver.

By the way, they also sent a lot of fruits such as coconuts, longans, mangoes, pineapples, as well as watermelons, peaches, nectarines, grapes, autumn pears, fresh lotus pods shipped from Jiangnan, as well as various cakes, silk fabrics, pens, ink, paper and inkstones.

The bunches of purple grapes were sweet and juicy, the autumn pears were crisp and delicious, and the watermelons and crisp peaches were also very delicious. Everyone in the family loved them. Zhao Xiang couldn't help but smile and sigh, saying that life now was better than when he was in the capital.

After all, even when I was in the capital, these seasonal fresh fruits from the south of the Yangtze River were not available to me whenever I wanted.

After a busy month or so, the sugarcane was harvested and a new batch was planted.

The sugar-making workshop would be busy for another ten days. It would not be until the end of December when the next opening would begin.

After finishing the sugarcane work, potatoes and sweet potatoes can be harvested one after another.

So, another busy round begins.

After all this work is done, the persimmons in Baijia Village can be picked and harvested.

Once the planting campaign begins, the second half of the year will be very busy.

Zhao Liya originally wanted to go to Hainan Island before the New Year and had been waiting for Zhou Hansheng to come.

However, Zhou Hansheng seemed to be held up by some things. He sent her a letter and specially sent someone to bring her many gifts from Jiangnan by fleet to express his apology. It was likely that he would not be able to come from the capital for a long time.

It would be a lie to say that I wasn't disappointed, but since he broke his promise, what he was doing must be extremely important.

Zhong Jing sent people to Hainan Island twice. Li Ying and others brought a message to Zhao Liya and also brought a lot of seafood and mountain products. They told Zhao Liya that they had planted various crops and vegetables such as corn and sweet potatoes that she had sent over, and they grew very well. Everyone loved to eat them and was very grateful to her.

He also told her that they had united several tribes and were reclaiming the land, planning to plant more fruit trees, corn, sweet potatoes, and the like. He said that next time she went there, they would have more delicious food to treat them.

Zhao Liya then wrote a detailed plan and gave it to Zhong Jing, asking him to send reliable subordinates to make good plans for the Guzhu tribe and help them make money and build a fortune together.

In addition, they also harvested a lot of sweet potatoes, corn, various vegetable seeds, and potatoes for Zhong Jing to take over.

Thinking of the huanghuali wood and other precious woods in the deep forest, Zhao Liya asked them to keep their mouths shut and not tell anyone for the time being.

Scarcity makes things valuable. Unless you need it, it is better to keep it. It may be useful in an emergency later.

Anyway, there is a way to make money now, so there is no need to kill them all.

There are many kinds of precious medicinal herbs in the deep mountains over there, which can be developed.

As for those huanghuali woods, Zhao Liya did think so. Secondly, she felt that it was not easy for them to grow so big, especially those that were so big that several people could not hug them. They must have grown for hundreds of years. It would be a pity to cut them down.

It’s better to let it grow.

As for what happens in the future, that is not something she can control.

Zhong Jing didn’t think too much about it, but he felt that what Xiaoya said was absolutely right. Scarcity makes things valuable, so what should be kept should be kept!

The previous batch has not been sold out yet.
