In any case, Su Luo's generosity still surprised the villagers of Xiaoyun Village.
There were seven or eight villagers who were still able to work, and they all came to Su Luo to help.
At first they were worried whether Su Luo had some conspiracy, but after everyone received their wages for their help, everyone became excited.
Tang Daniu was shaking with excitement: "Could it be that our Xiaoyun Village has welcomed another good village chief?!"
All the villagers in Xiaoyun Village thought so, but after all, it was only the first day, so no one fully trusted Su Luo.
Therefore, the young men hiding in the mountains were not called back.
Su Luo didn't care. He directed them to first build a simple workshop, and then find what was needed to purify the salt mine.
Once everything is ready, start the operation.
Su Luo was not idle either. He also devoted himself to purifying the salt mines and worked hard.
Even the knowledgeable Si Mingyu didn't know what the overall logic was here, but looking at Su Luo's serious face, her heart moved slightly.
The other six girls also looked at her.
After Ah Yue woke up, Si Mingyu repeated to her what he had said to the other girls last night.
Ah Yue naturally supported this very much, and even took the initiative to say that she wanted Si Mingyu to be the eldest sister.
Si Mingyu knew Su Luo's character to some extent. Since Ah Yue was the first one to follow him, Ah Yue's position as the eldest sister could not be changed.
Therefore, she rejected Ah Yue's proposal and called Ah Yue "sister" instead.
The other girls followed suit, even Delia, who was the most unconvinced, called out "Sister Yue" awkwardly.
Of course, the title of "Big Sister" Ah Yue is just a title. Among Su Luo's seven wives, the real backbone is still Si Mingyu.
"Sisters, Su Luo is working so hard now, we can't hold him back..."
"We will help if we can, and if we can't, we will do what we should do."
Si Mingyu spoke with a smile.
The girls nodded in agreement and went about their own business.
However, when he turned around, a woman with eyebrows like distant mountains flashed a hint of contempt in her eyes.
…
"Ye Hu, do you think that my son-in-law can really make money by putting so much effort into it?"
At night, everyone had dinner and began to rest.
After a busy day, everyone was a little tired. Shen Lao San said with a worried look on his face: "Today's expenditure is more than ten taels, right?"
"We only have 30 or 40 taels of silver. If we continue like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for seven days..."
“What if the money runs out?
Ye Hu looked at the candlelight in the simple workshop and remained silent.
Shen Lao San kept on talking: "Ye Hu, do you think our son-in-law is really capable or just pretending to be capable?!"
"If he really has the ability, he should know that money is the most important thing. He is so generous, but he doesn't have a foundation to support him..."
Ye Hu said: "I think that the son-in-law is really capable."
Shen Lao San hesitated for a moment and sighed: "I hope so."
Turning around, they looked at Zhang Daqiang and the others. Although they had a full meal, they were all a little worried about the current situation.
Su Luo has too heavy a burden on his shoulders. Not to mention the pressure from the Marquis' Mansion and his wives, Langya Mountain is right before his eyes.
The third in command of Langya Mountain died at the hands of Su Luo. I'm afraid that it won't be long before Langya Mountain will also take action against Su Luo.
In addition to the Su family and the Mo family...
Ye Hu and others just thought about it and felt nervous for Su Luo.
If Su Luo cannot do something to break the impasse as soon as possible, he will soon be in dire straits.
But Su Luo placed his hopes on a few stones and worked until late at night, which made them very confused.
"Uncle Tiger! Uncle Shen!"
Just as Ye Hu and Shen Lao San were sighing, Su Luo's voice was heard.
He stood at the door, waved at the two of them, and motioned for them to come to his yard for a chat.
Ye Hu and Shen Laosan were stunned, looked at each other, and immediately walked towards Su Luo's yard.
Candles are not cheap in this Great Xia, and ordinary villagers simply cannot afford them. However, in order to speed up the work, Su Luo lit several courtyards with candles.
The surroundings are made as bright as day.
When Ye Hu walked into the yard, he found Si Mingyu was also waiting, looking curious.
"Uncle, is the thing you want... made?!"
Ye Hu couldn't help but ask.
Shen Lao San followed behind, also looking puzzled: "So fast?!"
"Son-in-law, what on earth can you make to make a lot of money?"
Su Luo carefully closed the door, looked at the three people in the room, and took a deep breath.
"Si Mingyu, Uncle Hu, Third Uncle..."
"Before I take out anything, I have to confirm one thing. Can I trust you?"
In the Great Xia Dynasty, private salt trading was not uncommon, but it was indeed a serious crime.
And, in today's conditions, most of it is coarse salt.
Once Su Luo takes out the refined salt he has on hand, it will inevitably cause a sensation, and some people will inevitably be tempted by the money.
Therefore, in the first step of this plan, Su Luo must confirm that the three people in front of him are trustworthy.
"Uncle, what you said is..."
Old Third Shen wanted to nod directly, but when he saw the seriousness on Su Luo's face, he immediately understood that this matter was of no trivial importance.
His brows furrowed, and he immediately said in a deep voice: "Son-in-law, my grandfather Shen Laosan's generation was in charge of the Si family's accounts. Three generations have grown up in the Si family. We are members of the Si family when we are alive, and we will be ghosts of the Si family when we die!"
"Even if I become a ghost, I will never betray the Si family!"
Ye Hu said: "Me too!"
The two of them turned their gazes to Si Mingyu.
Si Mingyu raised her eyebrows, looked charming, and said with a smile: "Su Luo, it seems that you really made something extraordinary, otherwise you wouldn't say such a thing!"
"But I can guarantee that you can absolutely trust me!"
"Because...my life is a complete failure, and you are my only hope of making a comeback!"
Hearing this, Su Luo laughed and threw a small cloth bag on the table in the middle of the three people.
"What's this?!"
When Shen Laosan opened the cloth bag, he saw a pile of white sand-like stuff sticking out of the bag, as white as snow.
He frowned, stretched out a finger and pressed slightly.
Su Luo smiled and said, "Try it."
Ye Hu was quicker than Shen Lao San and had already put some salt into his mouth. The next moment, his expression changed and he said, "It's so salty!"
"What is this..."
His voice suddenly stopped, and then his breathing became rapid.
Shen Lao San also understood and almost exclaimed: "This is salt..."
Before he finished speaking, he covered his mouth, fearing that he would attract the attention of others outside.
But his eyes were filled with shock.
And Si Mingyu's eyes widened, her body trembling slightly: "Su, Su Luo... Is this your trump card?!"
