Chapter 172 One in, one out, breaking through the air
Zhao Chen looked anxious, but his eyes lit up when he heard Lin Xi's words!
"Brother Lin, are you saying the villagers have other things to do?!"
Lin Xi nodded. "Yes, we're going to build a duck farm. We'll start construction once the oil mill and the courtyard house are finished."
Since Mengli has made other arrangements, you should go to the restaurant today to get the money and take it back so your father can arrange for the villagers to work.
The pay remains the same, 25 coins a day.
So, broaden your perspective and don't just focus on those few coins and feel bad about the cost.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Chen was so excited he almost jumped up. "Brother Lin, this is wonderful! If the people in our village knew there was work to do and money to be made, they would be overjoyed!"
No wonder Gao Mengli made arrangements for the villagers; it turns out she was replacing manpower to make big money!
Zhao Chen realized he had misunderstood the two of them and felt a little embarrassed.
He scratched his head sheepishly, "Hehe, Brother Lin, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
Lin Xi smiled and waved her hand, "It's not your fault, we haven't had a chance to tell you yet."
When Jiang Shuzhi saw that her family was going to build a duck farm in their big house, she also had the idea.
After all, with the increasing orders for household paper towels, we should build a paper mill and hire some trustworthy people to work together.
She was thinking to herself that she would go home after work today and discuss it with her family.
At this moment, village chief Zhao Hua arrived at the gate of Pingyao City with his second son pushing a tricycle.
They looked at the dense crowd at the city gate, all staring at him.
The village chief felt a chill run down his spine.
He just came to haul away some sewage, so why are these people staring at his sewage truck with such bright eyes?
Are they trying to steal his sewage truck?
Realizing this, the village chief quickly stood in front of his own tricycle, stretching out his arms to protect it.
Seeing this, Zhao Chen quickly got off the carriage and pulled his bewildered father aside to chatter for a while.
The village chief went from being completely bewildered to feeling the pinch, and finally to beaming with joy!
He immediately pointed to the two people at the front, "You two, come here, I'll hire you!"
Du Hao, who was called out, looked pleasantly surprised and excited.
He jumped three feet high and ran over in two steps!
They readily agreed to the village chief's request, saying, "Yes, yes, okay! We'll do our best!"
As he spoke, he and another person quickly pushed the tricycle and followed Zhao Chen's brother, Zhao Ye, to the outside of the West City Wall to transport fertilizer.
The others saw that their leader had found a job!
Not wanting to fall behind, they quickly...
They followed the villagers of Wangyue who arrived at the city gate one after another to transport fertilizer.
As for being the leader of an alliance, that's not appealing anymore!
The area around the vast sea instantly became deserted; everyone had gone to work!
Pang Dahai's lips twitched at the sight.
Seeing that everything was arranged, Gao Mengli climbed back onto the carriage and called out to Zhao Chen, who was excitedly introducing the "heroes" to the villagers, "Zhao Chen, we should go."
Hearing Gao Mengli's call, he hurriedly replied, "Coming!"
As he spoke, he leaped onto the carriage like a nimble stone monkey and drove it towards the west of the city.
Lin Xi opened the restaurant, and Gao Mengli quickly went to the bedroom in the backyard, pulled out the copper coins from under the bed, took out two hundred strings of copper coins, and asked Zhao Chen to take them back to buy materials first.
Lin Xi quickly made two jianbing guozi (Chinese crepes) and handed them to Zhao Chen, asking him to take them to his family's Da Niu and Pang Da Hai at the city gate.
As for the foundation of the duck shed, we can only go to the county government office after the restaurants close.
The group then got busy at the restaurant!
Qian Yan'er, Bucktooth Jade, and Missing Tooth Dad also came to work, and the restaurant suddenly became much busier.
That same day, Gao Mengli sent Jiang Ya, along with Da Jun, his wife, and Queya's father, to Pingding County to clean up the shop.
The man with the missing tooth was the best choice to keep order in the past!
Dajun also knows some basic kung fu, so Gao Mengli and Lin Xi are not worried about security in Pingding County.
If we tidy up today, we can open for business tomorrow!
He placed double the order for pork for his relative Zhuangzhuang, and sent half of it to Pingding County next door.
Tang Guangjun was overjoyed to see the group of people who had finally arrived to open the restaurant after much anticipation, and he helped them with everything.
Only Wen Chou looked at his master with a complicated expression.
He always felt that there was a "conspiracy" going on at this restaurant!
Unfortunately, Tang Guangjun simply wouldn't listen.
He'd be happy even if it was an open conspiracy!
After all, it did boost the economic development of his county. With more people coming to the county, in addition to buying food, other shops also benefited!
Meanwhile, Gao Mengli and Lin Xi, who were about to head to the county government office after closing time, saw Dou Weiyi walking over with a grin on his face, accompanied by the icy Qin Shen.
Before even entering the door, Dou Weiyi started calling out, "Brother Lin, Brother Lin!"
Gao Mengli peeked out from the backyard and saw Dou Weiyi run into their restaurant.
He picked up the water glass on the table and gulped down two big mouthfuls.
Gao Mengli quickly led Lin Xi out, "Lord Dou, what brings you here?"
After finishing his water, Dou Weiyi wiped the moisture from his mouth and said, "I just wanted to tell you that the oil has arrived!"
"Huh? Oil?" Lin Xi looked at Dou Weiyi with a puzzled expression.
Qin Shensheng quickly stepped forward and said, "When the oil mill was being built, Dou Weiyi arranged for people to transport oilseeds from his hometown. These included rapeseed, peanuts, and sesame seeds."
Dou Weiyi quickly added, "These are all from the past few years; the new rapeseed from this year will be shipped over later!"
He was not only happy that the oil had arrived in time to help him get to the county town, but he was even happier that the carriage that had taken his uncle back had also returned!
Finally, he no longer needed to rent an oxcart.
Recalling this incident, he burst into tears.
Gao Mengli and Lin Xi exchanged a glance, their faces filled with surprise!
Lin Xi nodded happily, "The village's oil mill is almost finished, and the oil has arrived just in time!"
Gao Mengli echoed, "Lord Dou, then have someone transport the oil to Wangyue Village. Oh, by the way, we have something else to discuss with you; we want to buy land."
Dou Wei's eyes lit up when she heard "buy land foundation," "Buy land foundation? What are you going to do?!"
"Oh, it's just opening a duck farm. I'm planning to buy two acres of land!"
Upon hearing Gao Mengli's answer, Dou Weiyi beamed with joy, "Then let's go, let's go, let's go to the yamen right away to write the contract!"
With that, he let the two of them get into his carriage, while he used his light-footed skills to run back with Qin Shen.
After all, Gao Mengli was a woman, and they were men, so it was inconvenient for them to ride in the same carriage.
Gao Mengli watched Dou Weiyi disappear in the blink of an eye and clicked her tongue twice, "Did your master strike it rich? Why are you so happy?"
Ruan Dan looked in the direction where Dou Weiyi had disappeared, her expression complicated. "My master has indeed made a fortune recently, but it's no different than if he hadn't."
After all, although the reward money was divided into 1,500 taels, 1,000 taels were used to redeem Dou Zhan.
The remaining five hundred taels were given to Pang Dahai, Qian Yan'er, and the yamen runners.
His family members came in and went out, but they only managed to get air out of him!
However, while being debt-free brings a sense of relief, his family has simply returned to their original state of poverty.
