Ruan Qian looked at Ruan Meng, and Ruan Meng truthfully replied:
"I have no objection. Brother's analysis is correct; it is indeed the best solution at the moment."
Ruan Meng analyzed, "If the current situation continues, at least someone needs to be on duty every day, and someone needs to stay at home all the time..."
"We have a lot to do the next day, we can't afford to waste time!"
"As for the land for building the house, I suggest we talk to the village chief. The village has plenty of space; we can ask for a little more on both sides of the original area..."
"In this way, the three families can look out for each other, but they won't be too close to each other, so as to avoid conflicts."
The second and third brothers nodded in unison.
The eldest brother agreed, "We just got the village to supply He's restaurant. Talking to the village chief shouldn't be too difficult."
"We can pay a little more for the land. But..."
The older brother paused for a moment, seemingly hesitant.
Ruan Meng asked, "What is Big Brother worried about?"
Ruan Qian said, "The money we have should be just enough to pay for the land and build the houses. But if we let the two families build together, even if we pay for the land together, they may not have enough money to build the houses."
"Besides, more than half of the month has already passed, and next month's deductions for corvée labor will also have to be handed over..."
Ruan Meng smiled and looked at Xiao Kai, comforting her brother and sister-in-law:
With the God of Wealth right here, are we still afraid of not having money?
Xiao Kai immediately looked up, somewhat flattered.
Has he become a god of wealth?
Although it's not true, being valued so highly still evokes a sense of pride.
Ruan Meng laughed, "Aren't you afraid that we're going to use this fat sheep as our first target?"
Xiao Kai laughed heartily, "The fat sheep are the He family, Manager Yu, they're lucrative! Don't be afraid to fleece them! Go ahead and do it!"
Xiao Kai raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself that the He family was quite powerful!
The fattest little lamb is guarding the restaurant, Miss Meng, hurry up and make your cut!
Don't hold back, I really want to see it!
If you dare to use a knife, He Family Restaurant will only make more money!
I believe in you!
Ruan Qian and the others were amused by the conversation between Ruan Meng and Xiao Kai.
As soon as Ruan Qian heard Ruan Meng's words, he knew that she had something in mind.
As expected, Ruan Meng said, "Big brother, why don't you take some time to talk to both families first? If neither of them objects..."
"We'll pay for the land, and the building costs..."
"This will offset the help we received from both companies during this period. Besides, once the project is completed, there will be many more areas where we will need their help."
"I'll discuss the money at He's Restaurant tomorrow."
Ruan Meng turned to look at Xiao Kai, "Make something nice for Xiao Kai at noon. I have something to do this afternoon, so I won't be able to keep you company."
Xiao Kai chuckled. "We've become so familiar that you're starting to kick me out to my face?"
But I was still happy. When I first met Ruan Meng, I thought she was calm and aloof, but after getting to know her, especially after seeing how she got along with her brother and sister-in-law, I realized that she was very kind to the people around her.
Manager Yu took care of them, so every time they made a new dish, they would bring some to Manager Yu.
Although it doesn't hinder things, and there's a sales element involved, the care is genuine.
Otherwise, if they don't sell dishes to Xinglintang, why do they bring them a portion every time?
Because of Ru Meng, He Family Restaurant and Xinglin Hall are now more familiar with each other than they were more than ten years ago.
Xiao Kai laughed and said, "Okay! When are you going to town tomorrow, young lady? Or, when I pick up the goods, Uncle Liu and I will take you into town together?"
"When will you return? Then we'll send you back by carriage."
Ruan thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement.
If the business deal goes smoothly, he won't need to deliver it.
Buy yourself a horse-drawn carriage.
In the future, I will be going to the city more often. Although horse-drawn carriages are not cheap, they can save a lot of time.
The shore became noisy as villagers came out to gather seafood.
Remembering Ruan Meng's promise to provide lunch, I casually asked:
"Miss Meng, what shall we have for lunch?"
Ruan Meng remembered that there were no eggs the previous times, so she didn't make any for Xiao Kai.
I brought twenty eggs this time, which is just enough for the whole family to have a good meal.
Luxury? Twenty eggs in one meal?
What if she sells another menu item for ten taels of silver?
Great deal!
Ruan Meng took the initiative to ask about the food box, and Xiao Kai nodded in approval.
"We sold dozens of takeout meals yesterday, and the rest can last for two or three days."
"However, since you reminded me, I can order some first and let Brother Feng take his time to make them."
So, Ruan Meng and her third brother went to the beach to collect sea urchins, and as a report, she asked her second brother to take Xiao Kai to the Feng family.
As the two descended the mountain, Ruan Meng was stunned.
