Chapter 166 Something Happened in Yue Manting
Su Hanchu suddenly came back to his senses.
"Well, I was just thinking about a question. Most of these people are very hardworking, so why do they live in such a tight financial situation? Perhaps we can consider increasing grain production by using seeds like rice, millet, and corn. However, this will take time to research. For now, we need to solve the problem of mass production of vegetable oil."
Jun Moye listened and spoke slowly.
"This vegetable oil you mentioned tastes fragrant and isn't greasy at all. If the cost can be controlled, it will be a benefit for the people. From a businessman's perspective, this is definitely a profitable business. If you want to mass-produce it, the workers you hire must be reliable."
The two walked to the chairs in the yard and sat down. Su Hanchu slowly leaned into Jun Moye's arms.
"It's not that I'm afraid of others copying my methods. We can all make money together. Competition is more motivating. If others can do it, that's their ability. But I will never hire someone who is disloyal.
So how about we buy some people who sign indentures, and then for the development of our business and future power, we might have to move to the county. Anyway, we are not short of money.
We can buy a manor in the county and use it exclusively for producing vegetable oil. The county has a large population and many business people. Perhaps our peanut oil can be sold throughout Tianyuan and even Beiyi and Xuanyuan."
Jun Moye's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Chu Chu, you are truly a blessing to the world."
Su Hanchu spoke with a smile.
"That's because you don't even know whose wife I am. We can also wholesale the curved plows and make them available to the people as soon as possible."
At this time, it was in a private room in Yuelai Building.
Fang Zhitong and Aka were drinking and eating.
A-Ka spoke in a deep voice.
"How's your plan going lately?"
Fang Zhitong spoke with a smile.
"Brother-in-law Aka, don't worry. This matter is almost settled. We will take action in the next few days to ensure that Yue Man Court is put to an end. From now on, our Yue Lai Tower will be the only one in power."
After hearing this, Aka smiled and picked up his wine glass.
"Brother is truly amazing. He figured out a plan so quickly. But, brother, we still need to be more cautious. We must make good use of the girl who met you the other day. She said something about Miss Tian, but the one who was able to persuade the government officials is not named Tian. It's the county magistrate's daughter, Hua Tiantian. The character 'Tian' in her name sounds the same as 'Tian'."
Fang Zhitong raised his glass and clinked it with Aka.
"I've also found out about this. Recently, while I was planning things, I was also looking for someone surnamed Tian who had a grudge against Su Hanchu. It was Miss Hua. And Miss Hua should have fallen for Jun Moye. But this Su Hanchu is a bit surprising. Not only did he use all kinds of tricks during his exile, but now he can even open a restaurant."
Aka listened and gave a suggestion.
"This Su Hanchu is indeed extraordinary. Our waiter packed up some of those dishes a while ago and I tried them. They are indeed delicious. Big brother, you don't have a formal wife yet. You need to make this useful person your own. It just so happens that Miss Hua has taken a fancy to Jun Moye. You two will both benefit from working together."
After hearing this, Fang Zhitong remembered Su Hanchu's face and her clever and cunning look. He had seen her several times on the road of exile. Perhaps when she was abandoned by Jun Moye, he could take advantage of the opportunity. This former prince's consort must be more interesting to him than a married woman in the northwest.
Busy days always pass quickly. Two days later, as Zhang the blacksmith had made two oil-pressing tools, Su Hanchu also took Ping'er and Jiang Like to buy a lot of servants, and Jun Moye found a nice farm on the outskirts of the county and bought it.
Because it was a manor bought from someone else and there were some simple houses in it, Su Hanchu led people to move several peanut oil-making equipment over and named the manor Suiyue Villa. At the same time, he asked Uncle Zhou to bring people to help build a yard in the villa, as well as several greenhouses for making vegetable oil, so that there would be a place to operate for mass production in the future.
Lin Xiuzhi shouldn't have said that Su Hanzhi also came to Su Hanchu, and Su Hanchu took her to visit the production of peanut oil.
"Zhizhi, this is our vegetable oil. It's fragrant but not greasy. We've already supplied it to Yue Manting a few days ago, and it's been praised by both new and old customers. For now, take Ping'er with you to wholesale our mushrooms to vegetable shops in various towns. Then, we'll start selling our vegetable oil to various food stores."
After hearing this, Su Hanzhi spoke confidently.
"Don't worry, Madam. I've been involved in mushroom cultivation in the past few days while I was in the mountains. I've been eating mushrooms for many days. Our mushrooms are so good, those vegetable shops must be vying for them. As for this vegetable oil, it's something so novel and affordable, naturally everyone will be vying for it."
And at this time in Pei Mansion.
General Pei displayed his spear skills with great vigor and power, and there was a row of weapons beside him.
Li Xiao was brought to the yard by the housekeeper, and the housekeeper left.
Li Xiao did not disturb General Pei, but watched General Pei's marksmanship with respect.
General Pei didn't speak until he finished his marksmanship.
"Do you know how to use a gun or a knife?"
Li Xiao answered truthfully after hearing this.
"General, my name is Li Xiao. I'm skilled with the sword, and I also know a thing or two about spearmanship. I've just seen your spearmanship, and I'm afraid I'm showing off my skills in front of you."
After hearing this, General Pei put down his gun, picked up a big knife and a sword and handed them to Li Xiao.
"I will not take advantage of you. Let's test our skills with swords today."
Seeing this, Li Xiao looked at the sword in his hand and then bowed.
"I'm sorry, General Pei."
Then the two of them started fighting back and forth.
As the swords collided, wisps of cold light emerged in the sun, and the flashes of swords and knives were thrilling to watch.
At this time, something big happened in Yue Manting.
I saw a woman with two men, carrying a corpse covered with a white cloth, wailing at the door of Yue Manting.
"Oh, God, how could you be so blind? My husband died after having dinner at Yue Manting. How am I going to live alone from now on? Who will make the decision for me?"
Seeing such a scene, the people quickly gathered around to watch.
"My dear lady, what's going on?"
The woman spoke while wiping her tears.
"There's something wrong with the stuff in Yue Man Ting. My man was poisoned to death after eating it."
