Kang Yueran admired He Yifan's acumen. "If the imperial court wants to requisition it, none of us can resist. The key is how to requisition it."
"What are your plans?"
"I haven't made up my mind yet. Uncle, please don't tell anyone else. I'm just guessing. Besides, Dayong has so many docks, and it's not certain that Anzhou will be chosen."
He Yifan smiled and said, "Yueran is right. They may not choose us. Oh, by the way, Yueran, I have something else to ask you. I have a friend who also wants to build a soy sauce workshop and wants to buy a house from you. He said he will sell it in the south..."
Of course Kang Yueran is willing to sell it. Soy sauce is such a good thing, so production must be expanded.
She followed He Yifan's words and diverted the topic elsewhere.
After giving and receiving holiday gifts, it was already the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month.
Kang Yueran thought he could rest for a few days, but unexpectedly, Kang Youzhao came.
"The clan leader and my father asked me to come and ask you to return to the village for the New Year. My mother has cleaned up Yuan Chen's house so you can live there comfortably."
Huang looked at Kang Yueran and asked, "Didn't my house collapse? Yueran, have you had it rebuilt?"
"It was the village head who helped rebuild our houses. My house is occupied by my uncle and his family, and yours has been empty ever since."
Kang Youzhao added, "When we left Dayan Mountain, Yueran left us two hundred taels of silver. This silver was very useful. Many houses in the village were rebuilt with this money."
Ye asked Kang Yueran, "Shall we go back?"
Although she couldn't empathize with him, Kang Yueran understood that it was hard to leave one's hometown. "Go back!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Huang said, "I've almost finished preparing the New Year's goods. Shall we take them back?"
Ye replied, "I'll go prepare it right away. You Zhao, you stay one night and we'll leave together tomorrow."
Kang Youzhao nodded and agreed, "Okay!"
Going home is a happy thing. Ye, Huang and others are in a very good mood and chatter like little magpies.
Kang Yueran told He Zhengchu to look after the house, then jumped on his horse and left.
Hu Dacheng felt a little disappointed. "The New Year is not lively without girls."
He Zhengchu tried to cheer everyone up, "The girl will be back on the fourth day of the New Year, let's go home!"
Li Erbing was not at home for the first time to celebrate the New Year, and he felt even worse. He tried to comfort himself and others, "In a few days, everyone will be back, and the house will be very lively."
The servants hired by Kang Yueran could not go home, so they all came to her house to celebrate the New Year.
Everyone was eager to go home and arrived at Lu'an Town at the beginning of the afternoon.
Everyone in the village knows that Kang Yueran is rich now, and he can't go back to the village empty-handed.
She asked Kang Yuanchen to drive a horse-drawn carriage to the grain shop and order 5,000 kilograms of rice, and then went to the cloth shop to order 150 pieces of coarse cloth. After paying the deposit, she asked the two shops to deliver the goods to Fengtou Village the next day.
When we arrived at Fengtou Village, it was already dark.
Kang Hong stood at the entrance of the village and looked out. When he heard the sound of a carriage, he shouted, "You Zhao, is that you? You Zhao!"
"Dad, it's me. I'm back with Yue Ran, Yuan Chen and the others."
Kang Hong walked towards them quickly, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"
Kang Yueran and the others got off the carriage and walked quickly towards Kang Hong. "Grandpa Lizheng, slow down!"
Kang Hong recognized Kang Yueran at a glance, his throat tightened a little, "Yueran, you're back!" He was actually a little worried that Kang Yueran would be unwilling to return to this poor village.
"Yeah, I'm back! Let's go home!"
"Hey, go home!"
The six newly built adobe houses of Kang Yuanchen's family are still in their original locations.
I opened the door and lit the oil lamp. The house was very clean and the bedding was new.
Kang Hong introduced: "There is a main room, three bedrooms, a kitchen, and a toilet. If you think it's too crowded, I can spare another room."
Kang Yueran replied, "We can squeeze it open. Thank you, Grandma Hong, for your hard work."
"Put down your things and go to my house for dinner. I've prepared everything. There's food at home."
This is Kang Hong's intention, so he shouldn't refuse. Kang Yueran nodded, "Okay, let's put down our things and go over."
Kang Hong wasn't sure they would be back today, so he hadn't prepared the food yet. "Then you guys clean up, I'll be waiting for you at home." After saying that, he took Kang Youzhao away.
Kang Yuanchen pulled the carriages into the yard and put the items in a simple order. Ye and Huang took some of the New Year's goods they had brought with them, and the group went to Kang Hong's house.
Wang welcomed them in with a smile on her face. Kang Yanshun was also there. After some pleasantries, everyone sat in the main hall to talk while Ye and Huang went to the kitchen to help Wang with the cooking.
Kang Yanshun asked, "Yueran, is your mother's illness completely healed?"
"I think she's fine now. She speaks and acts the same as before, but there are still some things she can't remember. But it's okay if she can't remember them. As long as she's fine, that's all that matters."
"You're right, as long as you're well, that's all that matters." Kang Yanshun laughed a few times and then began to sigh, "I'm really happy that you guys can come back!"
Kang Yueran asked, "Is the village okay?"
"Okay, I got the sweet potato seedlings from you and planted them this year. The yield per mu is over 1,600 kilograms. The fields in our village were flooded, so this yield is already very high. No household will go hungry."
Kang Yanshun's smile flashed with a hint of bitterness, and he added, "It's just that many people want to sell sweet potatoes for money, which makes them a little unhappy."
Kang Yueran had thought about this problem before she came. She built houses for disaster victims she had never met before and gave radish seeds to villagers she had never met before. Now it was the turn of her fellow clan members, so she couldn't help but lend a hand.
"There's wasteland in our village and in the neighboring Beiguan Village. I plan to buy it and grow cotton. Any male between the ages of fifteen and forty-five can claim two mu of land and receive five hundred wen a month. After five years, the two mu will become his property."
