As for hiring outsiders, they never even considered it!
Right now, they don't believe anyone except those who already know about the existence of the cave.
Even if it's his own son!

Time always seems to fly by when you're busy.
Before we knew it, it was already March 14th.
In the evening, the crops in the fields had already been harvested, including sweet potatoes, potatoes, and a small amount of corn.
As for rice and wheat, they are not planted in large quantities.
They planned to collect it when they went to the county town.
Watching his older brother and younger sister dividing sweet potatoes and potatoes, Chi Erxiong spoke up:
"Big brother, Xiaoyu, Ah Bao and I have discussed it with the child's mother."
We'll go down the mountain with you tomorrow; they'll be fine at home.
The crops in the field haven't been harvested yet, and the cave has expanded so much.
"With just the few of you, I'm afraid the land won't even be properly plowed, let alone planted, by the time you return."
Upon hearing this, Chi Yu subconsciously looked at Chen Xiaomai and Huang Dani.
Seeing that the two of them nodded, clearly indicating that they had already discussed it privately, he nodded and said:
"As long as my second and third sisters-in-law have no objections, I would actually be more than happy to accept it."
It's getting late, I'll go out in a bit.
If there is no one around, I will let you out.
Once we're out, we'll scatter and throw away the vines and potato vines.
Brother, go down the mountain and see if the clan chief has brought his men over yet.
If they're already on the other side of the wooden fence, just bring them here.
In order to produce these things openly and legitimately, Chi Yu and Qin Mu, carrying Zhuangzhuang, went out with their older brother and sister-in-law just as dawn was breaking.
The location was still that remote spot in the Western Hills.
While they were harvesting sweet potatoes and potatoes in the cave, they had Chi Dahu take Qin Mu outside and pretend to dig the ground.
It was getting dark, and the western mountains were dangerous, so Chi Yu felt the time was just right.
Yes, Chi Yu made a special trip to Chi Dong's house when she went out in the morning.
Tell him that the sweet potatoes and potatoes will be harvested today, and ask him to keep an eye on things and prevent anyone from coming towards the western hills.
He also said that when it was getting dark, he should take his men to wait by the wooden fence.
When the time comes, the villagers will have to carry the produce back to share.
Chi Dongyi had been waiting for drought-resistant, high-yield crops, and it could be said that he had been looking forward to them day and night.
Therefore, upon hearing Chi Yu's words, he readily agreed.
When Chi Dahu arrived at the wooden wall, people from every household in the clan came and gathered there.
They brought all sorts of things.
Baskets, crates, and even carrying baskets and cloth bags.
Holding a torch, Chi Dahu said to everyone he saw:
"Chief, Little Fish has already distributed the things to everyone."
Once it's transported back, have someone weigh it to see how much it weighs, and also record how much each household will receive.
"Once everyone has a harvest, we'll return the number of small fish to us according to the records."
The Chi family had heard about this before.
Therefore, without any doubt, they followed behind Chi Dongyi and Chi Dahu, silently walking towards Xishan.
By the time they arrived, it was completely dark.
Fortunately, they were prepared. Several women, each carrying a small basket, raised torches that they had lit at some point.
Even though they were far away, the people on the north mountain could still see what was happening on the west mountain because of the torches in the darkness.
Having already seen the person off, Song Chongjin stood with his hands behind his back, looking towards the direction of the Western Hills.
Seeing the bright firelight over there, he felt extremely envious.
He knew that today was the day when the Chi family would receive a share of high-yield crops.
