Chapter 366 Making the Best Use of Everything
"Sure, thank you for your help, village chief." Yue Fuli nodded. She had plenty of money in her space. Not to mention buying two barren mountains, even buying hundreds of them would be no problem.
Of course, she couldn't spend her money carelessly. She bought the barren mountain to make more money.
"Okay, prepare the banknotes. Once I'm done, we'll go to the county town to transfer the ownership."
"Then I'll wait for your news." Yue Fuli said as he handed the village chief a fifty-liang silver note. "Take this note and use it for your bribes. If it's not enough, tell me."
"Okay!" The village chief didn't refuse and took the banknote. It would cost some money to do something like this, and even if Yue Fuli didn't give it to him, he would ask her for it.
After talking about buying the land, Yue Fuli told him about her plan to build a bungalow at the foot of the barren mountain.
"You still want to build a bungalow?" The village chief was a little surprised. He knew that Yue Fuli was rich, but he didn't know she was so rich.
This involves buying land and building a house, plus the house she built before, so it is not a small amount of money.
"Yes, village chief. I plan to open up all those barren mountains, so I plan to find some people from outside to live here. Since my house can't accommodate them, I can only build some bungalows for them to live in."
"You want to open up the wasteland, don't you want to find someone from the village?"
As the village chief, he naturally wanted to seek some benefits for the villagers. The people on the north bank were all exiled, and most of their property had been confiscated, leaving them living in poverty.
If Yue Fuli could hire people from the village to work, it would at least be an income source. This would be the best thing for the people in the village.
"Yes, but there aren't many strong laborers in the village, so we have to find some from outside."
"Since you plan to hire someone from the village, how will the wages be calculated?"
"Let's go by the market rate. Not including food and lodging, that's sixty-five cents a day. What do you think?"
"Can."
"Then it's settled. I'll have to trouble the village chief to help find someone."
"no problem."
After finishing the conversation, Yue Fuli didn't stay long and went straight home.
After she left, the village chief discovered that Yue Fuli had left gifts: a bottle of white wine, two packages of pastries, and a piece of meat weighing about one pound.
Looking at these gifts, the village chief didn't speak for a long time.
"Old man, what are you daydreaming about? It's time for breakfast." The village chief's wife couldn't help but shout when she saw her husband standing there in a daze.
After shouting, she followed the man's gaze and looked at the piece of meat on the table. She was surprised and asked, "Where did this meat come from?"
"It was sent by the Yue family."
"The Yue family?" The village chief's wife asked, increasingly surprised. "Why are they sending you meat when all is well?"
"The Yue family wants to buy the two barren hills behind his house."
"Hiss? Is this true? Is the Yue family that rich? Those two barren mountains are not cheap."
"No matter how rich they are, they are still someone else's. Okay, let's go eat."
The village chief was very quick and took Yue Fuli to transfer the ownership the next day. Yue Fuli was very happy to see that there were two more barren mountains under his name.
Afterwards, she gave the village chief five taels of silver as a thank you gift and asked him to help hire someone to build a bungalow.
The village chief accepted Yue Fuli's gift and naturally would not refuse it. He quickly arranged people to do the work.
At this time, the twenty or so men in black came in handy and helped build the house, making full use of their resources.
Regarding the sudden appearance of twenty or so people, except for the old lady who asked about it on the first day, the other people in the Yue family did what they were supposed to do and no one said much.
