Of course, Mo Yuan didn't intend to explain these things to the villagers. After all, sometimes being feared and deterred from offending others isn't necessarily a bad thing in rural life.
However, this matter then underwent a major change. When Mo Yuan held a grand wedding banquet, everyone was just shocked and didn't have any particular thoughts. But as time went by, anyone in the village who wasn't stupid or blind could see the earth-shattering changes that had taken place in Mo Yuan's family.
Previously, Mo Yuan's family lived in the most dilapidated thatched hut in the village. Now, they dreamed of moving into a brick house, though that hasn't been done yet. However, a pigsty has appeared behind the yard, and they raise a flock of chickens and ducks—everyone knows that's a considerable fortune! Selling them at the end of the year will greatly improve their living conditions. Not only that, Mo Yuan's family's meals have become increasingly lavish, with meat, fish, and other delicacies at every meal, making the rest of the village envious.
Yu Xiu'e became arrogant, her face practically pointing to the sky as she walked, as if she had become a prominent figure in the village. When chatting with the other women, she couldn't help but boast about her family's changes, even revealing some details about their circumstances. While these remarks were somewhat offensive, they reflected the wealth of Mo Yuan's family.
Furthermore, the enticing aromas wafting from Mo Yuan's kitchen every day made the neighbors' mouths water. Many people often speculated about what delicious dishes Mo Yuan had prepared that day, and they enjoyed doing so immensely. Especially after Mo Hongying brought Daya and Erdan to their home, many people began to subtly inquire with Erdan about what they had eaten. Children, often naive, would always truthfully tell him what they had eaten, which only fueled the villagers' envy and resentment.
In short, the changes in Mo Yuan's family attracted the attention of the entire village, who were filled with curiosity and envy about their lives. These changes not only altered the fate of Mo Yuan's family but also had a significant impact on the entire village.
The most obvious manifestation of this was that many people's minds became more active. Inspired by Mo Yuan, although they understood that implementing the household contract responsibility system could bring about tremendous changes to their family situation, they still felt dissatisfied.
This has broadened the horizons of many people, leading some to realize that relying solely on a small plot of land cannot truly change a family's economic situation, as it can only solve basic needs like food and clothing. Therefore, they have begun to consider more possibilities, hoping to find better development opportunities to improve their quality of life.
This mindset fills people with anticipation and hope for the future, while also inspiring their drive to be proactive.
Therefore, as a pioneer who had already succeeded, Mo Yuan became a benchmark in everyone's mind, which made many families in the village see business opportunities.
I recently heard that some villagers have gone to the place where Mo Yuan used to work, which is the same place where Mo Yougan used to work, to buy some homemade food. However, these villagers are very careful and do not dare to have a conflict with Mo Gang and his group. After all, Mo Yougan's experience is still there, and they do not know the specific reasons behind it!
Mo Gang didn't take it too seriously, just telling his family about it as an amusing incident. After all, they were all neighbors, and their business was small, posing no threat to him. The fried bun business had already established a stable customer base, and many employees of the oil factory had come to regard it as their canteen. As a result, Mo Gang even expanded the business, now seriously preparing lunch for many people at noon!
Although those people's businesses weren't as booming as Mo Yuan's, they were still making some income, which made the families trying their hand at business very happy. Similarly, Mo Gang felt that since they were all from the same village, he should help out whenever possible, so he would sometimes help sell some of their produce. People sometimes got tired of the fried dumplings and meatball soup, and occasionally enjoying a change of pace was quite pleasant. Thus, without Mo Yougan, that troublemaker, a positive business atmosphere developed in front of the oil mill, with villagers helping each other and developing together.
This positive interaction led everyone in the village to praise Mo Gang for his honesty and integrity. Unconsciously, Mo Gang became a universally admired good person, with everyone saying he most resembled the honest and kind Mo Youshan. His attitude towards Mo Yuan also underwent a dramatic change.
From initial deep hatred to later fear like a tiger, and now to envy and jealousy!
Those who were initially sarcastic out of jealousy now have to admit that Mo Yuan is quite something!
This is also why Mo Shuisheng praised himself so much!
