Chapter 200: I was outdone by my daughter? (Update 1)

"What do you think?" Yang Xiangwei did not rush to answer, but guided.

"I think... I don't know... I just did a little bit, it's not that great. When I was in charge of recruiting refugees, it was my cousin who helped me..."

What this means is that the work of recruiting refugees was not actually done by her alone. When she was recruiting refugees, she didn't even know how to read and it was Qu Haidong who helped her.

Later, it was the Whiting brothers and sisters.

The safety issue is her cousin Yu Zhongdou and Wei Xingze and others from the neighboring village.

All in all, there is help in every aspect.

"You are right. You did have someone to help you when you did those things. But who does the work without help?" Yang Xiangwei said with a smile. "Many things cannot be accomplished by one person. Knowing how to use people and putting them in the right positions is also a talent. I want you to be the village chief of Wanjia Village because of your outstanding performance in recruiting refugees."

Yang Xiangwei briefly talked about the situation in Wanjia Village, saying that the villagers who settled there were basically refugees, and most of them were recruited by Xu Runiang.

She went over to arrange the work and they would definitely be convinced.

"You and your mother are different! If it were your mother, do you think she would be in charge of the refugees?"

Xu Runiang hesitated.

Her mother certainly wouldn't.

After all, when she first wanted to do this, her mother actually disagreed.

I only stepped back because I loved her.

"Do you think that besides you, there are other girls who would argue with their parents and say that they want to be in charge of the refugees?"

"Yes...right! Aunt Qu and the others are them."

"Your Aunt Qu has no choice. She has no husband, no son, only a daughter. If she doesn't stand up on her own, who will protect her daughter?"

Xu Runiang: “…”

"So, you see, your path is different from most people's. You can be your Aunt Qu, or you can be your mother. The key is to see what you choose now." Yang Xiangwei said, "So, what do you want to choose? Do you want to be like your aunt, self-reliant, and be able to support yourself and your children even if you are alone? Or do you want to be like your mother, have a husband who loves you, give birth to a son in the future, and raise your husband and children?"

Xu Runiang thought for a long time, and then she said, "Can't I get married, take care of my husband and children, and work at the same time?"

"Sure!" Yang Xiangwei said, "But you have to be mentally prepared. Your future husband may support you, or he may not. When you have a conflict with your husband, your in-laws, or even your mother's family because of work, how will you deal with it? Will you give in, or will you insist?"

"I have no idea."

This was Xu Runiang's answer, but after leaving the mountain temple, she still went to Wanjia Village.

She stuck with this choice even though her mother objected.

She said to her mother, "Mom, I want to give it a try. I don't want to give up my husband's family and my job. I just don't believe that I can't stick to both."

Mother Xu looked at her and sighed softly: "Okay, no matter what you want to do, I support you. I just hope you won't regret it in the future."

"Mom, if I make this choice, I won't regret it."

…

As soon as Xu Runiang arrived at Wanjia Village, she saw an old acquaintance - Liang Sui, who was now one of the persons in charge of recruiting refugees.

"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be in Quanchun Town?"

Liang Sui saw her, smiled and scratched his head, and said, "I came back to see my wife and children. Manager Xu, thank you. I heard from my wife and children that you have always taken good care of them. Even when I was away, you didn't let others bully them."

Xu Runiang laughed: "You help us, so of course we have to help you with the logistics, otherwise how can you work peacefully outside? But why did you change your mind? Didn't you say before that you wanted to settle down in Qinghe Village?"

"That's what I thought at first, but when I heard that you were going to be the village chief of Wanjia Village, I discussed it with my family and moved here." Liang Sui said, "This is a newly built village, and all the people here are refugees. I think we can do a lot."

In fact, he felt that Xu Runiang was younger and more energetic.

Unlike her mother, who is already very old and wants to do everything step by step.

But business is something that requires drive, so what’s the use of just being steady?

Being so focused on maintaining stability, all the good business was snatched away by others.

At this time, Xu Runiang did not know that in the future someone would encourage her to take the villagers to do business and compete with her father's "Mountain God Caravan".

The Gilded Caravan will also become one of the caravans that is famous far and wide, or even world-famous.

With Liang Sui's help, Xu Runiang quickly took over the work in Wanjia Village.

Not only that, the Ma Sancai couple, the Liu Cai couple and others who were already familiar to him also supported their work.

If several big families are willing to support her work, her work will be easier.

Referring to her previous work of recruiting refugees, Xu Runiang also "hired" Liu Zhen, the son of Liu Cai and his wife, Ma Jinshan, the son of the Ma family, and Xu Li'niang, the married daughter of the Xu family who had worked as a housekeeper for a wealthy family, to form a working team.

Xu Runiang was responsible for the overall work, Liu Zhen was responsible for running errands for Xu Runiang, Ma Jinshan was responsible for the daily work in the village, and Xu Liniang was responsible for "women's work".

As for the account book, Xu Runiang is responsible for it herself. Wait until she has someone to rely on, then hand it over.

Xu Zhong: “…”

No, why is his daughter so idle?

They are both village chiefs, but why does he look so busy and overwhelmed? His daughter is busy recruiting refugees and also takes care of the work in Wanjia Village, so how come she does both well?

Xu Runiang heard her father muttering and laughed, "Dad, I'm not like you. I'm not like you who keeps all the work in my hands. I give the work to others."

"Are you confident in handing the work over to other people? Aren't you afraid that they might cause trouble?"

"What kind of trouble will happen? As for the refugees, Liang Sui is my elder and he has been in charge of the refugee work. In the village, Liu, Ma and Xu are the three major surnames, accounting for almost three-fifths of the village's population. As long as I manage these three surnames, I can basically manage the entire village."

Xu Zhong frowned: "You handed all those jobs to these three big families. Aren't you afraid that they will seek profits for their relatives and bully others?"

"How could that be? I used other surnames for the village grocery store, the captain of the work team, the captain of the farming team, and the captain of the self-defense team, and I didn't use the three major surnames." Xu Runiang said that this is called "checks and balances of power."

For daily management, we must use people from the three major surnames. Only then will they live more comfortably. The minority must obey the majority.

But when it comes to specific interests, we need to use people who can check and balance the three major surnames, so that everyone can be "harmonious" and discuss things properly.

No one takes advantage of anyone!

She has been in charge of the refugee recruitment work for so long, and she also knows that there is no absolute fairness in this world, and that many things require turning a blind eye.

As long as they don't go too far and don't touch her bottom line, she will pretend not to know.

Xu Zhong: “…”

It turns out that I was outdone by my daughter?
