Li Zheng agreed, and the county magistrate praised him repeatedly: "That's right, your Daling Village is now at the forefront. Look at your other villages, which one can keep up with Daling Village's pace? This matter is not only outstanding in the county, but it has also earned praise in the palace, especially from our Lady Cha."

Liang Shuyan felt a little embarrassed to hear the magistrate praise her, and didn't know what to say. She then said, "Magistrate, you flatter me. This is what we should do! It will probably take some time for these infected people to return to Daling Village. When that time comes, I will work with Lizheng to arrange their resettlement."

The magistrate nodded: "Yes, among these people today, besides you, there are also some people from Daling Village who have been infected. You can return to the village in three days."

Li Zheng looked at the magistrate with gratitude and said, "Yes, thank you, sir. If it weren't for your cooperation with Madam, we disaster victims would probably all be dead."

Inside the tent, a woman's surprised voice came: "Oh dear, where is Madam? We wanted to thank her properly, but we can't find her anywhere!"

A moment later, Liang Shuyan came in. She looked at the women in front of her, waved her hand and said, "These are things we should do. Now that you are all better, I am naturally happy. As long as you can recover and go back to live your lives, that's enough."

The woman who was leading the group immediately knelt on the ground and said in a pitiful voice, "Madam, please, all these people can go to your village, but what about us? Although we are not from Bald Head Village, we are beggars on the street. Now, we want to follow you to find a job and live a good life. Is that alright?"

Liang Shuyan hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to say. After thinking for a while, she realized that her cosmetics company was about to open and would need a large number of workers. Since these women insisted on following her, wouldn't it be a good thing to take them in?

"Alright, if you think you can endure hardship, then follow me. Our workshop needs reliable and conscientious people. If you are willing to listen to me, then stay. I will teach you how to work in the workshop later."

Upon hearing this, the woman exclaimed happily, "Really? You really agreed? In that case, we can become your workers and live in Daling Village, right?"

Liang Shuyan didn't understand why everyone was so eager to live in Daling Village. Right now, life in Daling Village wasn't enviable enough.

Men from the other villages stepped forward and approached Yu Lizheng, pleading with him and offering gifts, all in an effort to persuade him to let them stay in Daling Village.

Yu Lizheng hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm sorry, but our Daling Village has limited space. We haven't even settled all the people from Guangtou Village yet. If you come again, how are we supposed to make arrangements?"

Hearing that everyone wanted to come to Daling Village, Liang Shuyan came up with a solution: attract investment! Only by attracting investment could Daling Village maximize its benefits. She pulled Li Zheng aside and said calmly, "Sure, why not? As long as you have money, you can invest in Daling Village. The roads in Daling Village were built by imperial decree, and the shops are top-notch. Moreover, there are orchards and farms on the back mountain. The future commercial prospects are not to be underestimated! Anyone who wants to settle in Daling Village can register here, provided that you prepay 3,500 coins as your start-up capital and rent in Daling Village."

Many people were so frightened by the number that they backed away, and more than half of them no longer wanted to consider going to Daling Village. However, a small number of people, upon hearing about the business prospects of Daling Village, took out the money they had invested in the town and decided to invest it in Daling Village.

"We can invest, but what else besides shops? Can we sell land?"

"That's right. If we can sell the land, can our whole family move to Daling Village?"

"My lady, I'd like to open a coal yard in Daling Village. The people of Daling Village burn coal, and the price will definitely be lower than the market price!"

Liang Shuyan wrote carefully on the notebook, stroke by stroke, writing down the names and amounts of money in order, and finally marking the scope of investment and project plan, writing each word clearly.

The one who started it was Wei Dayong, who is 25 years old this year. He wanted to open a breeding farm and processing point in Daling Village, and the amount of investment was five hundred taels of silver!

The remaining merchants wrote down their names in order, and Liang Shuyan was in charge of collecting the money. This time, even more people came over, including those who owned pastry shops and clothing stores. Liang Shuyan opened her door to these people because they had money in their hands. If this matter was handled well, Daling Village would be the richest village. In the future, no matter what projects they had, they would be able to succeed.

Upon seeing Liang Shuyan's idea, the county magistrate nodded with delight: "Hmm, this is a good idea. I really didn't expect you to have such a thought, Madam."

Three days later, the epidemic situation had clearly improved. The county magistrate reported the latest situation of the epidemic to the emperor, and also told the emperor about the relocation of the bald village, as well as Liang Shuyan's investment promotion project.

Zhao Heng looked at Wang Xuehua with some reluctance and said, word by word, "Xuehua, don't worry. After I've explained things to my aunt and my father and aunt have discussed it, we'll find a suitable day to get married."

Wang Xuehua blushed and gently rubbed her clothes with both hands: "Well, Zhao Heng, I think it's best if we postpone our marriage. The pandemic isn't completely over yet. We can consider getting married after the pandemic is over."

Liang Shuyan pouted and said, "Well, Zhao Heng, you can't wait to marry Xuehua, do you want me and your father to have a grandson?"

Zhao Heng couldn't resist saying something in defense of his father: "Wouldn't it be wonderful if my aunt agreed to marry my father? That way, we'd be family, wouldn't we?"

Liang Shuyan seemed completely unresponsive this time, and then said, "We are family now, so how can we not be family?"

Zhao Heng was silent for a moment, then turned around and said, "Auntie, you're right. We're family. Family doesn't need to say two words to each other. Now that we're together, nothing can stop us."

The county magistrate glanced at Liang Shuyan somewhat embarrassedly: "Don't listen to that brat Zhao Heng's nonsense!"
