Early the next morning, the four of them set off in a car. The journey from Lan County to Pengdong would only take two days. Chunxiao thought that if she took good care of herself, nothing would go wrong.
Whenever they came across a town, they either ate or went to the doctor's office. They changed the dressings quite frequently, sometimes spending most of the day outside. In the hot weather, she would fetch water from the river and use the stove to heat it for him to wash and bandage. On the morning of the third day, they arrived in Pengdong.
Xiaohua was very happy. She didn't expect to be able to come back now.
"Miss, we have arrived in Pengdong. Are we going back to Zhuangzi directly?"
"Of course I'll go to the carriage and horse shop first. I don't even know what my shop looks like yet."
It was also Lao Wei's first time to visit the Pengdong Coach and Horse Shop. He didn't know the exact location, so Dongsheng showed them the way. Soon, Xiaohua saw the sign of the Chunsheng Coach and Horse Shop on the street. "Miss, we're here, look."
Chunxiao looked over and was surprised to find that the shop was quite large.
"We're here." Dongsheng asked Lao Wei to stop the car. After the car stopped, he got out and helped Chunxiao out. "This is a big shop we bought. There's a lot of space in the back too. Let's go in and take a look."
The guy at the door came forward when he saw him and said, "Boss, you're here."
"Where's Nie Sang?"
"We are short of manpower. The shopkeeper has gone to transport goods and is not here now."
"This is another owner of our horse shop. I'll show her around. You guys go and do your work." Dongsheng sent the people away and took Chunxiao and the others into the shop.
They first looked around the shop, then went to the back to see the yard. Chunxiao originally thought that this shop was large and the yard should be small, but unexpectedly the yard at the back was also large. "2800 taels for this shop is really a good deal."
"It took quite a bit of effort to get this shop, but luckily we finally got it. We even renovated this courtyard, and we didn't have so many rooms before. I should have told you about this first, but I didn't want to waste time, so I just took the initiative."
"You bought this shop for me and rented it to the horse dealer. Naturally, you can modify it however you want. You won't scheme against me." Now there are goods in the back, as well as a lot of cattle and horses. These need to be fed and cleaned every day. "What should I do if I don't have enough manpower?"
"Actually, finding people isn't difficult, but getting them to work wholeheartedly for the Ma Xing without any selfish motives is. I'm thinking I'll have to buy a few of my own when the time comes. Holding the indentures of the people I buy myself gives me the greatest peace of mind."
"You're right. If you need it, buy it. If you don't have enough money, I can lend you some."
Dongsheng smiled and said, "I have money."
"Yes, I almost forgot you have a reward. If you want to hire someone, please help me find a gardener who can plant flowers and trees. My house needs someone who knows how to take good care of it. In the future, the flowers, plants and trees in the house will also need someone who knows how to maintain them. Otherwise, no matter how much money you spend, it will be a waste."
"Okay, if I find what you want when I look for someone, I'll bring it back to you." Chun Xiao looked around the carriage and horse shop inside and out under his guidance. During this time, merchants came in and out from time to time, and the clerk was busy greeting the guests and did not follow them.
"Good guy, very flexible. This is a good place. It will be worth a lot of money in the future."
"If you think it's a good idea, you can buy more shops in Fangzhou in Hejian later."
"Of course." But she was afraid that the banknotes she had on hand were not enough. "When do you plan to come out again this time?"
"We'll be leaving after the wedding banquet, and we need to hurry up over there. Once the construction over there is completed, the whole delivery process will be much easier."
"That's right." Chun Xiao finished looking at the carriages and horses. "I'd better hurry up and go to the manor, otherwise I'll be too tight later. Are you busy? If you are, come with me. It's quiet over there. I'll go back and take a bath and change the medicine. If you can't, you can take a bath first and go to the clinic to get the medicine."
Dongsheng glanced at her and said, "Let's go. I'll take you back to the village."
Xiaohua was the happiest along the way. "Miss, we've been away for half a year. They will definitely be happy when we return this time."
"I don't know whether they are happy or not, but I can see that you are happy."
"Boss, you still have a farm here?"
"Master Wei, you really underestimate our young lady. Our young lady has many farms, and this is just one of them."
He knew that anyone who could run a carriage and horse business was not an ordinary person. "I just didn't expect the boss to be so young and a woman. She is really as capable as a man."
"Come and see our farm later. It's really big. The cotton should be blooming now. It's so beautiful."
As a result, when they arrived at the place in the evening, not only Lao Wei exclaimed, but Chunxiao and Xiaohua were also shocked. They did not expect that there were so many more houses near the village. This area was very deserted before and there was basically no one living there. The village was also a little distance away from the village.
Old Wei drove the cart back to the courtyard. It was getting dark, and there was no one in the fields. However, someone in the village saw them and ran over to ask who they were. Seeing Chunxiao and Xiaohua in the cart, they hurried back and said, "Steward, steward, the boss is here, the boss is here."
Chunxiao looked at the person who was running away and wanted to remind him to slow down, but unfortunately he had already run far away.
After a while, Meiman came out and stood at the door with her hands clasped, watching the carriage approach.
Chunxiao's carriage hadn't even stabilized yet, but she followed it outside and shouted, "Miss." Her face was obviously excited.
"Are you stupid? We have to drive into the yard, what are you doing out here? In this weather, even moving makes you sweat."
"It's okay, miss. I didn't expect you to come here today."
