Huang nodded in agreement.

"Yes, I should mention it."

However, we still need to use the tiger's skin and the banner, borrowing the identity of our prince's grandson-in-law or princess's daughter-in-law.

Otherwise, I doubt the county magistrate would take it seriously.

We could put up a warning sign by the roadside saying that there might be robbers in the village ahead.

Passersby are advised to avoid staying overnight in that village, and to exercise caution along this section of the road.

Daya sat to one side, pondered for a moment,

“Great-grandfather, great-grandmother, what do you think about us opening some inns along this official road?”

They specifically chose to open shops in areas with no one in the middle; surely they'd find business there.

At the end of the day, there were actually quite a few people walking on the official road.

The desolation we felt as we walked along was simply because we were just passing through.

People are generally not very familiar with the surrounding area, but it's different if you open a guesthouse in this area.

There's a lot of wasteland along the roadside; we can buy up large tracts of it.

Growing vegetables and grains, and raising some poultry and livestock on the side, is enough to meet the shop's needs.

"If we also get a horse-drawn carriage, it will be more convenient for the shopkeepers to buy groceries and seasonings."

Upon hearing this, Huang felt there was a chance.

"What you're saying isn't entirely impossible. It's something we can consider."

What we have in abundance is people.

Every year, many children in the orphanage reach a certain age and learn such excellent skills; they need a place to be placed.

When we get to the capital, we should discuss this matter thoroughly with your third aunt.

She is the richest and most influential person in our family.

As for how to invest, you two can discuss that later.

Daya laughed, revealing her small, white teeth, which were neat and tidy, making her look especially festive.

"Yes, yes, I'll discuss it with my third aunt then."

Over the years, I've only managed to save three hundred taels of my own money, and my third aunt is definitely going to pay the lion's share of it.

All I need is for my aunt to let me get involved. My aunt never loses money in business.

Mrs. Huang looked at her great-granddaughter's money-loving appearance and felt very affectionate.

This granddaughter is considered lucky in the family.

Although I experienced a short period of hunger,

But as Zhao Qingyan's soul returned to its place, the family's life got better day by day, and the girl's life also got better day by day.

Although she was raised to be a bit brash, she was also well-educated, polite, and knew how to assess situations; she was quite intelligent.

"I don't know what kind of feng shui our Zhao family has."

Whether it's a wife they marry into the family or a daughter born into the family, they all seem to have a knack for making money.

These guys seem to be lacking in this area.

Putting aside everything else, there's your third grandfather...

If he hadn't gotten married, he'd probably be lucky to have a hundred or two hundred taels of silver left over.

I've never seen an official as poor as him.

It's wrong to talk about elders in front of children, but Mrs. Huang really couldn't help but complain about her third son.

Da Ya covered her mouth and laughed.

"My dad is the same, he only knows how to do official business all day long."

He had no idea how much money his family had, or even how many servants they had.

He said that women should take care of things at home.

For a grown man like him to get involved in those things, wouldn't that be too beneath his dignity?

My mother scolded him, saying that it's right for a grown man to earn money, but he should know about the family's annual expenses, right?

If you don't know any of these things and only remember how much money you made,

When the accounts are being tallied, if there's less money at home, wouldn't people assume the wife has embezzled it?

It's fortunate that my mother's family wasn't around, otherwise, it might have really been thought that I was supporting my mother's family.
