The Eldest Sister Who Struck It Rich

The entire village shakes their heads at Zhuang Qingning - an orphaned girl who, after recovering from illness, stubbornly registers as a female household head instead of living with her uncle.

Chapter 335: Angry

Chapter 335: I’m so angry

Every day I work hard from morning till night, working diligently and conscientiously to accumulate hard work points.

She is already such an extremely motivated host, but a certain Five is still not satisfied and keeps making sarcastic remarks about her. It's really infuriating.

To be realistic, you haven't issued any tasks that would help her quickly accumulate diligence points during this period of time. This is pure incompetence.

How can an incompetent system have the nerve to say such and such things about the host?

Zhuang Qingning questioned his soul, but nothing happened in his mind.

Obviously, a certain Five escaped again.

Just... so angry! Zhuang Qingning clenched his fists, and after returning home, he made several snowballs in a row, and his mood improved a lot.

At noon, after stewing braised pork, eating a bowl of braised pork rice, and nibbling on two crispy sweet peaches, Zhuang Qingning felt that he had regained his due happiness.

I just processed some leftover peach pits and buried them in a corner of the flower bed to see if they can sprout and grow a new peach tree.

Just when they finished all these, Ding Gaochang arrived, bringing with him Miao Village Chief, Miao Hongjin.

"Sorry to bother you, Miss Zhuang." As soon as Miao Hongjin got off the carriage, he bowed and saluted to Zhuang Qingning repeatedly, being very polite and respectful.

How can we not respect him? He is the God of Wealth in the village from now on, and we have to worship him.

Ever since Ding Gaochang went to find him, told him about the sweet potato vermicelli, and asked him to taste the clear soup vermicelli and the hot and sour vermicelli, Miao Hongjin felt that there was hope for the future of the entire Miao Village.

Especially when he heard Ding Gaochang talking to him about the joint venture to build a workshop in the village, Miao Hongjin felt more and more that this was smoke coming out of the ancestral tombs of the entire Miao Village, and that the Miao ancestors had appeared in heaven.

Such delicious noodles will surely have no trouble selling in the future. Moreover, the noodles are dry and can be stored and transported. You can sell them wherever you want in the future. If they are made well, it is not impossible to sell them to the capital.

This workshop sounded very complicated and it was probably not easy to run, but Miao Hongjin heard the most important information - silver shares.

What does "silver shares" mean? It means that every villager will have a share in the future. The more you invest, the more you get, and the less you invest, the less you get. But no matter how much you get, you still get a share. In other words, if the villagers work in the workshop in the future, it is equivalent to working for their own family. The harder they work, the more silver they earn. Don't they have to work hard? In the early stage, it is equivalent to everyone adding fuel to the fire. It doesn't take much for each family to invest in order to start the workshop first, which saves a lot of trouble. To put it bluntly, even if the workshop really can't be built later, it won't cost much. The villagers do the math and dare to do this.

More importantly, Zhuang Qingning was willing to share the recipe with his family and help their village set up a workshop.

Let’s not talk about whether Zhuang Qingning got a share of the money or not. Even if she did, it was what she deserved. The fact that she was willing to run the workshop with Miao Village instead of looking for another village was a great favor to Miao Village.

Miao Hongjin understood the difference between duty and favor, so besides admiring Zhuang Qingning for being able to make such delicious sweet potato noodles and thinking of such a wonderful way to set up a workshop, he was more grateful to her.

"Miao Lizheng is so polite. Please come in." Zhuang Qingning led the two people into the courtyard, asked Zhuang Qingsui to bring a stool over, and made a pot of tea for them. "I don't have anything to offer you two. I'm really sorry."

"No, no, you are too polite, Miss Zhuang. I am disturbing you by coming here without permission. I hope you don't mind." Miao Hongjin said with a smile, "And Miss Zhuang's tea is very good. I haven't had such a fragrant tea for a long time. Miss Zhuang's craftsmanship is really amazing."

"We are not strangers, Lord Ding and Miao Lizheng, you don't have to be polite." Zhuang Qingning brought over the crisp peach that had been cut into pieces, "It was brought over from my aunt's house. It's refreshing and sweet. You can have a taste too."

Ding Gaochang and Miao Hongjin did not hesitate to try a piece each.

"I came here today because I have discussed the details of this workshop with Miao Lizheng in the past few days, and I also came to discuss it with you, Miss Zhuang." Ding Gaochang didn't exchange too much pleasantries and went straight to the point.

"Yes." Miao Hongjin nodded. "I also briefly told the villagers about this workshop. Some people are skeptical and are waiting to see, but most people are very supportive and have already asked how much silver shares they can get from the amount of sweet potatoes."

"These past two days, I have also looked at a piece of land in the village. It is a wasteland at the entrance of the village. It can be used as a workshop after clearing the weeds. However, it is an empty lot after all. It needs to be fenced in, the ground needs to be leveled, and a shed needs to be built. It will take at least half a month at the fastest."

"So I was thinking, if Miss Zhuang has time here, why not teach the method of making sweet potato vermicelli to the people doing the work while you build the workshop?"

"Yes, this way we can do many things at the same time and save a lot of time." Zhuang Qingning agreed with Miao Hongjin's proposal.

It's just right to start early. By the time the sweet potatoes are harvested in autumn this year, the workshop will be on track and the skills of serving people will be quite proficient. Then I can let go and work, and wait to earn some money for the New Year before the New Year.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

For her personally, the sooner she starts, the sooner she can earn hard work points to pay off her debts.

Zhuang Qingning agreed straightforwardly, and Miao Hongjin was overjoyed. "It's great that Miss Zhuang agrees. I will quickly count the people and things that will become shareholders in the village in the next two days, and select those who can work in the workshop. We need to ensure that the people in the workshop are diligent and capable, and there will be no unqualified people."

"After I have counted and prepared everything, I will ask Miss Zhuang to come over and teach everyone how to make sweet potato vermicelli. Of course, if it is not convenient for Miss Zhuang to come here, I can bring people over to learn from her every day."

In order to ensure that the reputation of the kidnapped people, including Zhuang Qingning, would not be damaged, Ding Gaochang specifically instructed that the matter should not be spread. Miao Hongjin did not know about this, but felt that since Zhuang Qingning was helping their village to prepare for the workshop, he had to show sincerity and due courtesy.

"I'd better go. This way I can take a look at the workshop and discuss it with Miao Lizheng. As the saying goes, three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. If everyone talks about it, maybe there will be a good idea."

Having so many people come here to learn how to make sweet potato vermicelli is a problem. The travel back and forth is a problem, and the venue is also a problem. Moreover, leaving the familiar place and going to an unfamiliar environment will affect the learning effect.
