Chapter 87 Raising ducks doesn't cost money?
When Aunt Ruan came looking for her, Yan Sui was tinkering around in the courtyard.
The hard furnishings are complete; now she needs to prepare the soft furnishings.
Soft furnishings need to match the decoration style and be comfortable, so I'm afraid I'll have to visit a lot of furniture markets later.
Seeing Aunt Ruan's hesitant expression, Yan Sui quickly guessed: "Has your son caused trouble again?"
How did you know?
"I just saw Gao Wen's car."
Gao Wen rarely visits his hometown, Changqing Village, unless there's a specific reason for his visit.
I usually only come back this frequently when I have a lot of pictures.
When this matter is mentioned, Aunt Ruan feels ashamed.
"He wants to raise ducks in the fields."
Yan Sui laughed, "Raising ducks? He's trying to ruin my lotus pond on purpose."
Aunt Ruan was embarrassed and ashamed, wishing she could disappear into the ground.
"I'm sorry, I can't persuade him."
"Why are you apologizing? This has nothing to do with you." Yan Sui wasn't about to hold a grudge.
Gao Wen is the one who's being inhuman; it has nothing to do with Aunt Ruan.
"He's trying to force me to take over your family's land, isn't he?"
Aunt Ruan nodded. "That's what he said."
So far, this is the only way to break the deadlock.
Yan Sui has always been someone who responds better to gentle persuasion than force; it would be strange if she agreed to Gao Wen's disgusting actions.
I wanted to force her head down and make her swallow this fly; it was just too disgusting.
“Then you should go back and tell him that he can raise ducks if he wants, but I won’t be responsible if anything goes wrong.”
Upon hearing her words, Aunt Ruan suddenly remembered what Zhao Chunrong had done before.
He quickly advised, "Yan Sui, there are some things you can't do; they're illegal."
Yan Sui waved her hand, "What are you thinking? I'm not stupid. I won't do something like throwing an egg against a rock."
She wouldn't risk her life for something so trivial.
"Let him raise ducks if he wants to. It's your land, I'm not so domineering as to restrict even this."
Seeing that she seemed to have a plan, Aunt Ruan stopped talking.
"So you're just going to walk away from this?"
Yan Sui smiled and said, "How can you manage him? Does he even listen to you? You're getting on in years, just live your life and don't worry so much. I've noticed your videos have been getting a lot of views lately, with over a thousand likes each."
Aunt Ruan was a little embarrassed. Ever since Yan Sui mentioned it last time, she had been figuring it out on her own, learning how to shoot and edit videos.
I thought it would be very difficult for someone my age to do this.
But after some practice, I've become more and more proficient.
“I’m just riding your coattails. If it weren’t for you, they wouldn’t watch my videos.”
Yan Sui smiled faintly, "As long as you're willing to film, I'd love for you all to ride my coattails and build up your accounts."
Promoting Changqing Village more is a win-win situation.
"You can also mentor Grandma Zhao and the others, brainstorm ideas, and create new scripts. If necessary, I can even appear on camera; I'm happy to cooperate. Once you have a large following, you can also take on advertising and earn extra money."
Aunt Ruan nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I'll go back and think about it."
Perhaps she can use her own account to help Yan Sui sell peaches via live streaming later.
With Yan Sui expressing her opinion, Aunt Ruan felt much less burdened.
She doesn't care, probably because she has a way of dealing with those ducks.
Gao Wen's plan failed, and his face was filled with disbelief.
"Isn't she afraid that the ducks I raise will eat all her lotus roots?"
Aunt Ruan: "They said that as long as you have the ability, you can raise whatever you want."
Gao Wen's face darkened; this was going to be difficult.
He hasn't actually talked to his brother-in-law yet, since raising ducks requires investment.
Guo Lan was worried. "What should I do now?"
Yan Sui wasn't buying it at all.
Gao Wen snorted coldly, "She's made up her mind. If she thinks we won't really do it, then she'll call your brother over to raise ducks."
"Are you crazy?! Raising ducks doesn't cost money?"
If you want Yan Sui to suffer a loss, you can't buy small ducklings.
You have to buy a big one; big ducks are more destructive.
Moreover, you have to buy a lot, a whole flock of ducks entering the country, to scare Yan Sui.
Gao Wen sneered, "Compared to the money from selling the land, the money invested in raising ducks is just a small amount. Call your brother over and give him a few thousand yuan as a trouble fee later."
Guo Lan thought about it carefully and realized it made some sense.
"Alright, but let's make this clear first: no matter whether this works out or not, my brother has to get all the compensation."
Gao Wen glanced at her coldly, "Don't worry, he'll get his share."
He acted quickly, and the next day he summoned Guo Lan's younger brother to Changqing Village.
The news that Guo Qiang was going to raise ducks in the village spread quickly.
Most people shook their heads when they heard this, thinking it was incredibly immoral.
Yan Sui had just planted the lotus flowers when he said he wanted to raise ducks. Wasn't he just trying to make things difficult for her?
Granny Zhang gloated: "As long as Yan Sui contracts that land, everything will be fine. She doesn't want to pay, but she can't possibly cut off someone else's source of income."
Old Mrs. Zhao clicked her tongue, "How can you be so wicked? What Yan Sui did was to help our Changqing Village make money. Why can't you stand to see others doing well?"
Granny Zhang spat and gave a cold snort.
"Don't portray her as so noble; she's just doing it for her own money! Do you think she'd share any of it with us?"
Aunt Ruan slammed her hand on the stone table, her voice ringing out: "There are plenty of big bosses in the city, and they make money too. Why aren't you envious of them? Yan Sui may not have asked you to work, but take a good look at yourself. If it weren't for what you did before, would she be targeting you?"
Granny Zhang has no good intentions; she's always stirring things up in front of Zhao Chunrong.
Most of the bad things people say about Yan Sui in the village come from their mouths.
"Hmph! Now it's your son who wants to raise ducks in the fields. It's your son who's ruining her plans. You'd better think about how to explain this to Yan Sui."
Aunt Ruan gave her a cold look and said, "You don't need to worry about that. I've already explained it to Yan Sui."
"You should worry more about yourself. Doesn't your grandson want to get married in the future? With your reputation ruined like this, what good girl would dare to marry your grandson?" Old Mrs. Zhao advised earnestly.
But Granny Zhang wouldn't listen to a single word.
"Don't pretend! My grandson is so outstanding, plenty of good families would be eager to marry him! He's not getting married now because he's career-oriented and busy making money!"
Aunt Ruan clicked her tongue. "Whether you're making money or not, I don't know, but you're certainly busy shoveling chicken manure. What, do you treat chicken manure like money? When you propose marriage, are you going to bring a bag of chicken manure to the door?"
Granny Zhang was so angry she bared her teeth. "You're talking nonsense! I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Seeing that the two were about to start fighting, Old Lady Zhao quickly called for people to separate them.
As Grandpa Wang separated them, he advised, "You two ladies are both getting on in years, why do this? We are all civilized people, and civilized people should do civilized things. Don't let others laugh at us!"
