The three people left the village and headed straight for the next village.
In the car, Liu Feiyang looked at Kexin's depressed face and comforted her: "If you don't like this manager, replace him with a new one. There are many obedient ones, so this one won't make a difference!"
Ke Xin frowned, "Hmm?" She belatedly realized he had misunderstood her and said, "No need to change him. Manager Le is a sincere man. I was just thinking about other things!"
"Thinking about something else?" Liu Feiyang raised his eyebrows: "What could possibly make you look so embarrassed?"
Ke Xin sighed, sat up straight, looked at the trees flashing by outside the window, and said helplessly: "Aren't you worried about handing such a huge family business over to you and me?"
It would be fine if you make money, but what if you don’t make money and even lose money?
Today, she saw that Ruyi Villa alone had over 200 people to support. And that was just one villa... If all the villas were added together, how many people would the Liu Mansion need to support in a year? How much land would be cultivated? How many villas would there be? How many shops would there be? How much money could they earn?
Or does every shop make a profit instead of a loss?
Questions popped up one after another. This was just the expected ones. What about the unexpected ones? Was there a spy planted by someone else in this huge family business?
Oh my god, she is really overwhelmed now!
Facing Kexin's gloomy face, Liu Feiyang was not in a hurry at all. Instead, he crossed his legs and said leisurely, "That's easy enough. At the end of the year, we'll collect the debts and see which shops are losing money. We can just close them down. If we have time, we'll go check them out. If we don't have time, we can sublet the shops and collect the rent!"
Ke Xin looked at him blankly. Is it possible to do this?
What can I say about him?
He just lay down where he fell, just for fun. It was also a blessing that his father-in-law did not hand over the family business to him in advance, otherwise... he would have become a rent collector now.
"You... that's a good idea, but don't brag to me next time about following your father-in-law into business when you were only a teenager. You don't look like that at all!"
Liu Feiyang playfully hooked her chin and said, "Because I've known about the troubles of those businesses since I was a child, I've avoided them. But now that Dad has set his sights on you, I can step down!"
My wife is still quite new to the business world, but when she gets involved in the family business in the future, she will know how huge it is, how troublesome it is, how helpless it is, and how much she wants to escape.
Just looking at the number of words in those account books would make him dizzy for days, just like being two months pregnant and vomiting non-stop. Those account books stacked together would not be as high as a five-story building, but at least three stories. It’s scary to think about it!
When Ke Xin heard this, she immediately felt something was wrong. Could it be that she had accidentally fallen into her father-in-law's trap? But then she thought again, it wouldn't be possible. The family business was so huge, what if she really let him play Barbie Q?
Thinking of this, she comforted herself that her father-in-law would never joke about the family business, but when she turned around and saw Liu Feiyang's smiling face, she immediately understood that if she couldn't do it well, there would be someone else who could do it, so... she was the tool.
Shadowmoon Villa.
The manager is called Miguel, who is about the same age as Shui Yimao and Le Wanqing, all between 30 and 40 years old. However, Miguel looks rougher, has a very cheerful personality, and a loud voice.
As soon as he saw them, he said with a smile: "Hello, Master, Madam. I heard from the master yesterday that you two would be here today. I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
Jiang Kexin smiled and asked him, "Since you've been waiting for a long time, have you prepared anything?"
Miguel was startled, scratching the back of his head in embarrassment. "On my farm, besides food, there are only cabbages and potatoes. I don't have any money, but I have prepared food. If the young master and young mistress don't mind, you can eat here!"
Ke Xin quite likes this carefree personality. It is absolutely not oppressive to be with such a person. He speaks his mind and is definitely not the kind of person who hides his thoughts.
Ke Xin smiled at Liu Feiyang and said, "Then let's stay for lunch before leaving. I also want to take a look around the farm!"
Liu Feiyang nodded: "My wife has the final say!"
After saying that, he turned around and looked at Miguel. After walking around for three days, it was the first time that Miguel made his wife smile on her own initiative. It seemed that his wife liked this kind of sloppy guy?
He touched his smooth chin with his backhand, wondering whether he should grow a beard when he got home. Would that make him look rough? Maybe this was the sense of security his wife was talking about!
At that time, Miguel was by Kexin's side, introducing the situation on Zhuangzi.
"Shadow Moon Villa has 750 acres of fertile land and 170 permanent workers. The rest are ten handymen and three cooks. One is my wife, and the other two are widows. They fled famine last year and came to me with their children. I took pity on them and took them in. I provide them with food and shelter, and the monthly allowance is only a hundred coins. The two children are only six or seven years old, and they usually help with collecting firewood, fetching water, and other chores within their abilities."
Ke Xin nodded slightly and didn't say anything, but when it came to fleeing famine, she was a little confused.
The weather in Daliang State is good now, so why would there be people fleeing famine?
Walking on the fertile fields, the wheat was growing in the same way as in the previous two farms. It would be fine if it were for growing grain, but she didn't plan to grow grain this year.
"Seven hundred and fifty acres?"
Miguel nodded, confused, "It's 750 acres, not including the vegetable patch at the back!"
Ke Xin secretly calculated that in addition to the fact that Ruyi Villa was one thousand acres, the land on this villa was also large. If an orchard was planted, it would also be a considerable area.
Spring is suitable for brewing strawberry, peach and mulberry wines, summer is suitable for brewing cherry, plum, grape and watermelon wines, and autumn is suitable for brewing pomegranate, pear and apple wines.
These fruits are all suitable for making fruit wine, but how is it possible to grow so many of them in such a small area?
It seems that I have to select a few kinds of fruits to plant here. Just thinking about throwing away that kind of fruit wine makes me feel sad. Walking in the ridges, Ke Xin observed the soil while selecting the kind of fruit trees to plant in her mind.
Lunch was ready, and when they came to call them to eat, Ke Xin realized that she had actually been in the field for half an hour. She smiled awkwardly at Mig and said, "Let's go, eat first!"
Miguel looked at the young lady again. Honestly, this was the first time he saw a lady from a wealthy family like to run in the fields. She didn't mind the dirt, scratching around, and even picking up dirt and sniffing it...
How come she drives like an old farmer?
There was no so-called canteen for lunch at noon. Instead, everyone went back to their own rooms after getting their meals, chatting and laughing in groups of three or five, and occasionally playing around.
