"It's all settled, why do you still want their piglets? They're definitely not going to pay for them, and we don't need the money right now."
"Mom, Sister Zou is a very strong-willed person. If we just let it go, she might get upset. I'm afraid it will cause a rift between us and our family. Two piglets aren't worth much. We just need peace of mind."
"Did your second sister-in-law look for you before she left?" Yan Bingfa suddenly asked Chunxiao.
"No." Chun Xiao looked at Yan Bingfa in confusion, "What does Second Sister-in-law want me to do?"
"I heard from your second brother that your second sister-in-law's family came to her about planting cotton. I thought she would tell you, but forget it. She's already gone to Pengdong. I'm afraid nothing will happen."
Zhang had some prejudice against her family, and no one knew how she would work with them. She would go look for Duo'er and the others when she had time. "My second brother and sister-in-law are not here now, so Duo'er and Pan'er are the only ones at home. I thought I would bring them to live with me when my house is finished."
"That depends on your ability." Zhou smiled. "Your sister-in-law asked them to come and stay, but they refused. She told your second brother about it before she left."
"They're surrounded by villagers, so it's okay. Everyone's helping to keep an eye on them." Yan Bingfa wasn't too worried. "They're nearby, so we can all go check on them more often."
"Dad, I heard from the villagers that the headman seems to be planning to flatten the mountain from the village to the end of the village. Is it true?" When Tian heard it for the first time, she didn't quite believe it. After all, this was not something that could be completed by one or two people in a few days.
"Yes, the clan held a meeting a while ago and called me over to discuss this matter. The land in the middle is actually considered the village's residential land, but it's all small slopes and can't be used to build houses or grow crops. Now that the conditions in the village have improved, there's not enough land, so they thought of clearing the land at the back. It's a huge piece of land, so I naturally agree. If it's cleared, more houses will be built there in the future, and the area around Chunxiao will be more lively, so there's no need to worry about anything happening."
"Then I'm sure many people in our village will want to buy it. We can just grow cotton instead of building a house."
"That won't work. We've agreed that the land will be sold to villagers to build houses. Each household will be granted a maximum of two acres. I was thinking about whether my family should buy another two acres. Now that the sale hasn't even started, many people have already expressed their intention to buy. I'm afraid I won't be able to win."
Yan Bingfa found the scene at that time a little funny. "I think we can only discuss this matter after the cotton seeds are planted."
"Let's not join in the fun. I heard from the Fang family's sister that many families want to buy land for their younger generations who are getting married, but there are only two pieces of land at most."
Chun Xiao was a little surprised to hear them talking about this. Perhaps she had been too busy these days and hadn't heard the news. "When did this happen? How come I don't know about it?"
"It's not a secret. Many people in the village know about it. If you don't know, just ask and spread the word and you'll find out. You're very busy building the house over there right now, so you don't have time to listen to these gossips. By the way, how long will it take for your house to be built?"
"I don't know either, maybe two or three months." Her project is a big one, and it may not be completed in two or three months.
Dongsheng returned on the 25th. Soon after arriving home, he went to the end of the village to find Chunxiao and gave her a shop deed.
"Has the point in the county been set up?" Chunxiao took the title deed and looked at it carefully, and was very impressed by his efficiency.
"I've found it. The location is pretty good, and the price is fair." Chunxiao was right. Stores in this county town are indeed expensive. The one they bought cost 1,200 taels. According to her, the front of the store is average size, but the back is large, which is quite convenient. "Brother Wangfu is watching over there now. We'll hire employees after we set up everything."
"Our previous planning has been very thorough. If you do as we planned, there shouldn't be any mistakes." She looked at Dongsheng with a smile, "Are you leaving again?" It would take a month or so to set up branches in several state capitals, not to mention running the business. Time is very tight nowadays, and the wasted rent for the shops is also a cost.
"I originally didn't plan to come back. I was going to go directly to Wei County. This time I came back to send the person I bought back. I have sent him directly to Zhuangzi." After saying that, he handed her the six deeds.
"Hey, now I feel more and more that it would be great if you could be my steward. I can worry less."
Dongsheng smiled and said, "I can be your manager now. When our horse farm is built, I can report to you regularly on the affairs of the farm and the horse farm.
Chunxiao went back to the house and took out 5,000 taels of silver notes for him. "You have so many places to set up shop, and ten thousand taels is not enough to buy shops everywhere. Take these. After all, the shops will be my property. The more the better."
Dongsheng took the money, and every time he received it, he felt a little unhappy. "I'm just starting out, and I don't want to expand too much. If you want to buy a shop, we can choose a few with good locations and good prices. I plan to rent the rest. I only realized after buying a shop this time that shops in this county are really not cheap."
"We agreed that you have full authority. We'll look at the proportion and decide the profit sharing after the business is officially up and running." Chun Xiao didn't really care what proportion Ma Hang owned. It would be great if she could help build Ma Hang and make money.
"If I come across some nice rocks or trees for the house while I'm out there, I'll bring them back for you. I just don't know if the house can wait any longer."
"That's great! My house won't be finished in a few months. It would be great if you could find some good stuff for me. Just deduct it from my money.
