Chapter 297 Business Comes to You
"What are you crying about?"
A familiar little baby voice was heard, and everyone raised their tearful eyes, only to see Ye Buwei walking towards them holding Xiao Jiuer.
"Master Xiaojiu!" Everyone cried even more excitedly.
"Don't cry, just cry!" The little dumpling shook his head anxiously, "Crying is ugly! Don't be sad, you are so cute!"
"Listen to Master Xiaojiu and stop crying!" The village head wiped his tears with his sleeves and walked to the little dumpling with red eyes.
"Don't worry, little treasure! We're all so happy! We're crying tears of joy!"
"Huh?" The little dumpling tilted his head in confusion.
"It's only been two days since we built the inn in our village, and every household will receive 24 taels of silver! We never even dreamed of receiving so much money before. We were so happy that we couldn't help crying!"
"Oh! It's a chicken road!" Little Dumpling blinked her big eyes with long eyelashes, "You have to get used to it! Just keep calm!"
The villagers said with tears in their eyes:
"Master Xiaojiu, happiness has come so quickly. We feel like we're dreaming and dizzy! You said before that every household would have a good house. We thought it would take years at least, but we didn't expect it to come true so soon!"
"Now every household in Heihe Village can build a large tiled house! From now on, our houses will no longer be drafty or rainy!"
"Yes!" Xiao Jiuer nodded, "We'll have a house! We'll have money too! My dear, everything will get better and better!"
"Okay, we believe what Master Xiaojiu said, and we will always believe it, woo woo woo..."
The villagers' tears, which had been held back, burst out again.
"Master Xiaojiu, you are a savior sent by God! We must have done great good deeds in our previous life to meet you, Master Xiaojiu, in this life!"
"If it weren't for Master Xiaojiu, how could we have earned so much money! Our good life is given by Master Xiaojiu! Our lives are also given by Master Xiaojiu!"
The villagers knelt down one after another as they spoke, "We are willing to follow Master Xiaojiu forever!"
"Always obey Master Xiaojiu's orders!"
"Don't kneel!" Everyone's kneeling made Xiao Jiuer feel uncomfortable. "You fool, that'll make him look cute!"
Ye Buwei said: "Everyone, please stand up!"
The villagers were reluctant to get up, “We would like to take this opportunity to thank the Ye family!”
"If it weren't for the Ye family, who knows where Master Xiaojiu would have ended up! How could this great blessing never reach our Heihe Village?"
"Get up!"
When the little dumpling waved his hand, everyone felt a force coming from the bottom up, lifting them up, as if someone was holding their bodies steadily, and everyone stood up involuntarily.
"Thank you, Master Xiaojiu!"
Everyone was excited but didn't dare to say it out loud. They all understood that this was the magical power of Lord Xiaojiu.
At this time, the villager on duty on the city wall ran over and said, "Master Xiaojiu, Fan Jieqiang, who made a bet with you, insisted on seeing you. He said he had something to discuss with you!"
The villagers said, "Isn't this guy looking for trouble again?"
The village head laughed, "No! He's been frightened by Master Xiaojiu!"
Little Dumpling touched Ye Buwei's face, "Headache, are you going to have a rough time? You haven't had a rough time in a long time!"
Ye Buwei smiled faintly, "I won't go, can you let the teacher accompany you?"
"Okay!"
The little girl agreed obediently, but she was a little confused. Why didn't she want to go out?
Could it be that he doesn't like the prostitution in the capital?
Zhao Xingjian came over, hugged Xiao Jiuer and walked out.
After leaving the city gate, Fan Jie Qiang was indeed waiting at the door. When he saw Xiao Jiuer, his eyes lit up and he walked over with great interest.
"Auntie, I've finally got you here!" She said as she wanted to hold the little girl's hand.
Zhao Xingjian calmly avoided the approach and asked, "Master Fan, what do you want from Xiao Jiuer?"
Fan Jieqiang looked at Zhao Xingjian and asked, "Aren't you the waiter?"
Zhao Xingjian nodded, "Yes, I am Xiao Er, and also Xiao Jiuer's family member."
After saying this, Zhao Xingjian was suddenly stunned.
What's going on? He actually said he was a waiter?
How could he be content to be a waiter?
As he was examining himself, a beam of sunlight seemed to shine into his heart, and a door slowly opened with a creak. Zhao Xingjian suddenly felt enlightened, as if waking from a dream.
For so many years, he has been blaming all the injustices on the dark and corrupt officialdom, using escape to numb his disappointment with reality, but he has forgotten to face his own weakness.
Over the years, he has been wandering around, never stopping. He thought he was unwilling to associate with darkness, but in fact, he was not brave enough!
He didn't have enough courage to challenge and change, he was afraid of losing more, so he chose to give up!
Today's sentence "I am a waiter" made him get rid of the arrogance and self-admiration in his heart for the first time. At this moment, Zhao Xingjian felt unprecedented ease and freedom!
It turns out that titles have always been a shackle for him.
Heihe Village changed him. He finally stopped looking down on criticism and being cynical in vain. He learned to be down-to-earth and earnestly help people solve their most practical difficulties.
It turns out that if you unconsciously calm down and become an ordinary person, you can experience unprecedented happiness.
"That's great, Xiao Jiuer, this is life!" Zhao Xingjian said with a smile in his eyes.
Fan Jie Qiang was completely confused by this inexplicable remark. "Well, Brother Xiao Er, I don't know what you're so happy about, but I just want to discuss this matter with my aunt!"
"He's a waffle!" Little Dumpling hugged Zhao Xingjian's neck affectionately, "It's your turn to rob him!"
Fan Jieqiang was startled: "Little aunt, you can't call me that! I'm from the Kaiyang Fan family. I want to do business with you. Is this okay with you?"
"Young Master, are you from the Fan family of Kaiyang?" Zhao Xingjian said with a smile. "My apologies, I never thought that the young master of the largest merchant family in Dayu Dynasty would come to Heihe Village!"
Fan Jieqiang waved his hands and sighed, "I'm ashamed. That was the family business that my father and my eldest brother built. I'm just a nobody who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun!"
Zhao Xingjian was even more surprised. He didn't expect that the seemingly unreliable Fan Jie Qiang was actually a direct descendant of the Kaiyang Fan family.
"However, I discovered something incredible in Heihe Village! This is a huge business opportunity!"
Fan Jieqiang beamed with joy, "Once this is accomplished, my father and my eldest brother will definitely look upon me with new eyes! Then, I'll be a contributing member of the family!"
Zhao Xingjian smiled and said, "I wonder what business Mr. Fan is referring to?"
Fan Jieqiang lowered his voice and said, "To tell you the truth, your Heihe Village is guarding the treasure without knowing it.
Your inn, your beds, your fruits, your toiletries, your vegetables... all are unique to Dayuchao. I can use my family's sales channels to sell Heihe Village's specialties all over the world!"
