"Boss, why are you here?"
The little yellow-haired boy stuttered when he spoke, and Gu Yan gave him a look, as if to say, why can't I come?
"How are the chestnuts selling today?"
Their team came back too early, Ye Jin asked curiously.
"They're all sold out. Business is surprisingly good. Here's today's revenue. Please take a look."
The little yellow-haired boy took off the small bag from his waist. The bag was bulging and it was obvious that there was a lot of money in it.
Ye Jin quickly counted the money. 500 kilograms of chestnuts were sold for a total of 1,000 yuan. Although this little yellow-haired boy looked nonchalant, he was actually quite reliable.
Ye Jin gave 5 yuan to each of the other four people and gave 10 yuan to the little yellow-haired boy alone.
"I'll just do the same as my brothers. I can't take 10 yuan for just this morning's work!"
The little yellow-haired boy knew how to refuse, and the smile on Ye Jin's face became even brighter.
"I didn't go with you today, but you still sold so many chestnuts. You did a great job. The extra 5 yuan is a reward for you."
The little yellow-haired boy was about to refuse, but Gu Yan suddenly put his arm around his shoulders.
"If you really feel bad, use that 5 dollars to treat your brothers to a meal."
The little yellow-haired boy thought about it and agreed happily.
"Thank you, sister. If nothing else, we'll go out for dinner. If you need to buy something, keep in touch next time."
"Take this."
When the little yellow-haired boy turned around, he saw Ye Jin throwing a key at him.
"You can come and sit here whenever you want. You can also use this place as your base. If I have something to sell, I will put it in the living room here in advance."
"Okay, thank you for your trust, sister."
The little yellow-haired boy nodded and bowed happily. Not long after they left, the two hip-hop generals also came back with a few brothers.
"Sister, all the peanuts are sold out. Your peanuts are of good quality and have a good reputation, so your business is booming!"
The two were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling and quickly took out the money they had earned.
Ye Jin simply checked the amount and found that the total was one dollar short.
She remained silent, but still gave each person 5 dollars.
"Well done, here's your salary for today."
Everyone took it with a smile and left satisfied.
After everyone had gone far away, Gu Yan asked in confusion, "Why did you reward Little Yellow Hair's team with 5 yuan for completing the mission? And this team also completed the mission but didn't get any reward?"
"The reason is simple. Little Yellow Hair's team not only completed the task quickly and efficiently, but also paid a generous amount of money."
"Did this team get underpaid? How much? You need to point this out and not encourage this unhealthy trend."
Gu Yan pretended to chase after her, but Ye Jin quickly stopped him.
"Don't go. It's just one dollar. There's no need to get into a fight right now."
"But this kind of behavior is unacceptable. If we don't speak out now, they might do something even more outrageous later."
"I have a plan in mind. Can you let me handle it?"
Since Ye Jin said so, Gu Yan naturally would not object.
"Okay, you handle it yourself. If you can't handle it, tell me and I'll take care of it then."
"Another 2,000 yuan, I can buy two more houses."
Ye Jin paced back and forth in the hall, wondering how to spend the money.
"Are you thinking of buying a house now that you've made money? I do know of a great project. According to inside information, a train station will soon be built on the land behind the farmers' market. If you buy a house there, you'll make a fortune in no time."
Gu Yan wanted to tell her everything he knew, but Ye Jin just smiled.
"Don't have too high expectations for things that haven't been finalized yet."
When talking about building a railway station, Ye Jin quickly remembered something.
This was the place where the railway station was originally planned to be built. However, due to the villagers causing unrest and two deaths, the railway station was ultimately not built.
Those who received the news and bought houses nearby may not necessarily lose money, but all their funds will be trapped and they will not be able to make money for a long time.
Even if the housing prices in the town soared later, that would be more than ten or twenty years later. Who would be willing to spend their life savings here?
"This is the inside information from a friend of mine who works in the relevant department. It's already a done deal, and there won't be any major leaks."
"Let's go and take a look at that piece of land."
Ye Jin didn't say anything else and immediately took Gu Yan out.
"Are you talking about this piece of land? I told you that we can't build a train station here."
Ye Jin spoke with certainty, but Gu Yan was confused.
"Why don't you tell me the reason?"
"The terrain over there is very prone to landslides. There are quite a few people living at the foot of the mountain. Even if we are very careful, if we move the mountain over there, it will still cause a landslide as soon as it rains."
"If we force the construction there, there will definitely be casualties, and we will have to stop the work. Besides, the families living here are solitary and not easy to get along with."
"Normally, it might seem like nothing, but once interests are involved, it's bound to pop up. The construction team won't be able to continue, and the project will most likely fail."
Seeing Ye Jin's certainty, Gu Yan had to think about this issue seriously.
"What you said makes sense, but you're a little too familiar with the information here. Did you investigate in advance?"
"Some things are hidden in our daily lives. If you really want to find out, you can find out a lot of information by asking around."
Ye Jin said meaningfully, Gu Yan nodded, and looked at her with a deeper gaze.
"Actually, I wasn't entirely reassured. After buying two houses here, I asked around again, and the information I got was pretty much the same as what you said."
"I told my friends about this, and they think someone might have leaked the news on purpose, so I'm a little hesitant now. So where do you think is the best place to build a train station? I think that's it!"
Gu Yan pointed towards the south side of the vegetable market, and Ye Jin also pointed there at the same time.
The two looked at each other and smiled: "We really have a tacit understanding."
"Come on, I'll take you over there now."
Because of the news about the houses in the east, the housing prices suddenly soared, and some people adopted a wait-and-see attitude and did not dare to buy houses here.
But the houses in the south are different. In everyone's opinion, there is no possibility of renovation there. Not only have the housing prices not risen, but there is also a downward trend.
The two of them came to the south together. This side belonged to Yangjia Village. When they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw two old men playing chess.
Gu Yan didn't say anything, just pulled Ye Jin to watch quietly from the side.
Half an hour passed, and after a fierce battle, the two men finally finished their game. One of the old men with a white beard looked up and smiled at the two of them. "Young people nowadays are rarely so patient. What are your thoughts on coming to the village, young couple?"
