Hot Farmer’s Wife: Buying a Husband for the Farm

"Some of the internal worries of the Chu state will no longer exist for the time being."

"I think that Yuchi Tianqiong can be attracted." Zhou Shen said, and bowed to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao nodded.

"it is good."

"Then the matter of contacting Yuchi Tianqiong will be handed over to you. After contacting the other party, I will talk to him in person."

Zhou Shen looked happy.

"Yes!"

Li Xiao discussed with everyone for a while before letting everyone back down.

After the house was quiet, he got up and walked to the window.

The moon was already hanging outside the window.

This month, it seems to be the same as what I saw when I was in Dayan, but I always feel that it is not as beautiful as what I saw when I was in Dayan...

At this moment, his Yue'er has returned to Qingshi Town.

Is the daughter-in-law thinking about him?

Dashi Village, Willow House.

After Lin Xiaoyue finished washing up, she did not go to bed, but walked to the window.

Looking at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, there is also a faint longing in my heart.

I don't know if Xianggong's side is going well and when he will be able to return home.

In these days, she can only use busyness to numb her thoughts, fill her time as much as possible, and avoid worrying and missing that person in Chu country...

Fast forward to the end of November.

The weather is getting colder and the winter vibe is starting to thicken.

Kyoto, the imperial concubine's palace.

Hearing the news that the palace maid came to report, there was a burst of anger on the imperial concubine's face.

"Hmph, a little slut who has only entered the palace, dares to take this concubine's face?!" She stretched out her hand and patted it on the table, and the concubine said angrily.

Immediately, her thoughts changed, and the imperial concubine quickly suppressed the anger in her heart.

"Bring a pen and ink." He said.

The emperor didn't know what kind of evil he was in for a while, but he didn't care about his body and frequently visited the harem.

Especially the talented jade person who just entered the palace, because his appearance is three-point similar to Concubine Shu, he is favored every day.

Now it has reached the point of not giving her face and going against her will.

snort! What kind of storm can a folk woman create without a mother's relationship?

Do you miss Concubine Shu? Well, she will fulfill him...

The pen and ink were sent, and the imperial concubine wrote quickly.

After writing, hand the letter to the palace maid.

"Hurry up and send the letter to the prince." He instructed.

"Yes."

When the palace maid took the letter and left, the concubine raised a sinister smile on her face.

Three days later.

Anyang Palace.

King Anyang opened the letter and saw the content of the letter from the imperial concubine.

absurd!

The father emperor now not only wastes the government, but also declares prostitution with his concubine every day. Even condone a little talented person to bully his mother and concubine.

His eyes sank, and King Anyang's heart quickly turned around.

Then he looked towards the door.

"Come in." Shen said.

He seems to understand the words of the former National Teacher now.

The father's behavior is so absurd now, and his body is afraid that he won't be able to last for long.

Master Guo Shi said that he would return to Beijing in half a month. Is it time?

No, just to be on the safe side.

He had to do second-hand preparations.

Hearing the voice of the prince, the butler pushed the door and walked in.

"Your Highness." He bowed and saluted the King of Anyang.

King Anyang nodded.

"Arrange Wu to come to Beijing." He said.

The mother concubine had already made plans with him, and she recruited Li Xiao from him and promised to send Concubine Shu out of the palace, so she made such preparations.

I found a woman from the people who looked like Concubine Shu.

And after training, now this woman even looks like Concubine Shu.

In the past, he still didn't believe what the concubine said, that the emperor had feelings for Concubine Shu, and his feelings were extraordinary, but now he did.

If the jade talents in the palace were really favored because they were similar to Concubine Shu, then the Wu family, who was more like Concubine Shu, would definitely be able to replace them.

"Yes!" The butler responded with a salute.

Turned around and left.

King Anyang took the letter from his concubine and did not return to his senses for a long time.

at the same time.

Liu's Industrial Park has officially started construction.

Two hundred workers were busy on the construction site, and there was also a foreman directing the scene.

The wasteland is buzzing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Willow House.

Lin Xiaoyue was reading the account book in the study, when Li Jie suddenly came to ask for permission.

"Let Mr. Li come in." Lin Xiaoyue said quickly.

Now the fast-paced expansion is suspended, but there are too many branches. Li Jie spends most of his time in Nan'an County, but he actually came back today.

Li Jie came in as soon as the servant serving in the study went down.

"I've seen the county owner!" Li Jie stepped forward and bowed to Lin Xiaoyue.

Lin Xiaoyue smiled, "Mr. Li doesn't need to be polite, just sit down and talk." As she spoke, she looked at the chair next to her.

"Xie County Master!" Li Jie then went to the chair next to him and sat down.

"Mr. Li has been working hard for a while. I came back this time, but what happened over there?" Lin Xiaoyue asked with concern.

Building an industrial park requires a lot of financial support, and the fast-growing profits are now one of the biggest sources of income for Liufu.

At this time, you can't go wrong if you go too fast.

"Don't worry, the county lord, there is nothing serious." Li Jie said quickly.

"However, the sales of hot and sour noodles and wolf tooth potatoes have surged in various branches now, and the sales plan previously formulated still cannot meet the demand."

He had urged Liu Mansion many times in Nan'an County, but he never replied to him here.

This is also in a hurry, and he hurried back.

Lin Xiaoyue nodded.

"Shanshan told me about this before," he said.

The current wave of rapid sales growth is actually mainly related to the reduction of surplus grain in the hands of the common people.

The fast food snacks are not expensive, and the hot and sour noodles and wolf tooth potatoes are more satiety.

At this time, there will naturally be more people who are willing to go to the snack bar to consume.

When Li Jie heard this, he knew that Lin Xiaoyue already knew, but he was a little nervous.

The county owner knew but did not allocate materials, which can only show that the situation in the rear is not as good as he imagined.

"If...if the stock is insufficient, it is better to raise some price." After thinking about it, Li Jie said.

As a high-level executive of Liufu, the county owner sent sweet potato seeds and potato seeds to Anyang Wangfu, and he also knew.

If these seeds are planted next year, there will be no shortage of these two crops in Anyang County.

But for now, in the entire Anyang County, except for them, there is no vermicelli and potatoes for the time being.

Even if the price rises quickly, there will still be a large number of customers to consume.

It is nothing more than the decrease in the number of customer orders, and the daily sales are less.

Lin Xiaoyue frowned.

"No." Directly rejected.

"Going fast is the cheap route, doing the fast food business."

"Even if you can make more money by raising prices now, it will not have a good impact on the brand."

After thinking about it, Lin Xiaoyue said again: "When it's time to make money, you can't help but make money."

"Well, then triple the supply of hot and sour noodles, and double the supply of wolf tooth potatoes."

The stock of vermicelli and potatoes was huge before, and the Chiwu Army in each village almost used these two ingredients as staple foods.

This has led to the fact that despite the huge output, everyone still feels that there is insufficient food.

The Chiwu Army had been eating vermicelli and potatoes for so long, and it was time for them to change their tastes.

In addition, some of Zhuangzi's fat pigs are about to be released, which can also save a lot of sweet potatoes.

At that time, this part of sweet potatoes will be made into vermicelli, and the output will not be small.

"Yes!" Li Jie looked happy, and quickly responded.

With the words of the county owner, the franchisees will not come to urge him every day.

"Regarding investment promotion, after the new regulations are released, can someone ask?" Lin Xiaoyue thought for a while and asked again.

Although the expansion has been suspended now, there is a huge funding gap in Liu Mansion.

It is still necessary to recruit some franchisees with strong intentions in advance.

"Yes." Li Jie said quickly.

"In the past eight days, there have been no less than twenty people who have come to the door in person or by someone to inquire about the situation."

"Oh?" Lin Xiaoyue's eyes brightened.

"How's it going?" he asked with a smile.

Li Jie's complexion was a lot duller.

"Only two people are willing to sign with us." Some lost.

Actually he can understand.

Because of the new constitution, not only the joining fee is expensive, but also thousands of taels of silver.

Moreover, the opening time of the store has to be postponed to the second half of next year, and the location of the store can only be handled according to the arrangement of the headquarters.

According to the current situation of the headquarters, all chain stores in Nan'an County have been opened.

The next step is to open stores and spread around Nan'an County, blooming everywhere in Anyang County.

That is to say, new franchisees can only go outside Nan'an County to get the franchise.

The two people who signed with him this time were not from Nan'an County.

"Not bad." Lin Xiaoyue said after listening.

"The policy on joining will remain unchanged, and we will continue. In the next year, we can recruit a total of 100 franchisees. Try to ensure this number, of course, do not want more." Lin Xiaoyue continued.

Before, she released a large number of chain stores at a low price in order to support the Chiwu Army.

Seventy or eighty chain stores are opened in Nan'an County alone.

Next, for other counties in Anyang County, she only gave a total of 100 places.

For 100 franchisees, the total franchise fee is 100,000 taels of silver.

With this money, she probably won't have to go to Mr. Liang or Mr. Zhou again.

After all, those two would not help her in vain.

As for Liu's Industrial Park, she doesn't want others to share the benefits.

Thinking of all this, Lin Xiaoyue couldn't help sighing.

She has worked so hard for so long, and she has built it up quickly, and she still has a great sense of accomplishment.

A big brand can not only bring a steady stream of income to her. More importantly, there is a lot of added value. Just like the financing method she is using now.

Giving only the franchise right, not the equity, is really the most ideal financing method.

In the future, when the industrial park is completed, she will build a workshop again, and the equity will be given out cautiously.

Come on, do it well, the Liu family will not have to suffer from poverty for generations to come.

"Yes." Li Jie replied.

One hundred franchise stores are released in one year, and the probability of completion is still not small.

By the way, maybe he has to release the news.

After all, the number is limited, and it is beneficial for prospective customers to make a decision as soon as possible.

Lin Xiaoyue asked Li Jie some quick things before letting Li Jie leave.

the next day.

The villages have started to improve the food.

Potatoes and vermicelli began to be greatly reduced, and replaced with rice, flour and grains and some seasonal vegetables.

Potatoes and vermicelli suddenly changed from a main meal to a side dish.

Everyone really likes this kind of change.

The Chiwu Army accepted it quickly.

At the same time, the sausage and bacon workshop started to get busy again.

In each village, pigs of suitable weight began to be slaughtered one after another, and many were slaughtered every day.

Liang's and Zhou's received more sausages and bacon respectively, which made Shopkeeper Liang and Zhou Ye very happy.

In addition, with the release of live pigs, the vermicelli workshop started again.

Those Chiwu Army who did not need to participate in training entered the vermicelli workshop, and the vermicelli on Zhuangzi gradually began to increase.

In the blink of an eye, it's half a month.

Liu Wuji, who had shied away from the imperial decree to return to Beijing several times, finally set foot on his way home.

Before leaving, the Liu family saw them off, all of them showing reluctance.

Especially Liu Shi, who kept wiping tears, but couldn't stop it.

"Okay! She's the mother of two children, and she's still crying like this." Liu Wuji comforted Liu Shi.

"Old man, I won't come back if I don't go back to Beijing!"

"Wait to go back to Beijing, deal with the matter, take a leave of absence for the father and the emperor, and then come back." Having said that, Lin Xiaoyue noticed that there were tears in Grandpa's eyes.

"Woooo, grandpa——" Lin Xiaozhi said "woohoo" and rushed directly into Liu Wuji's arms.

"Grandpa, don't go!" He pulled Liu Wuji and said.

This month, my grandfather spent the most time with him. Doted on him like a baby bump, and took him to do a lot of things.

He likes grandpa and doesn't want to be separated from grandpa.

Liu Wuji's eyes turned even redder, and he hugged Lin Xiaozhi.

"Ouch! Grandpa's good grandson!"

"Grandpa returned to Beijing to do a big job, how can he delay it?"

"You obediently wait for your grandfather at home. When your grandfather finishes the affairs in Beijing, your grandfather will accompany you every day when he comes back!"

"In the future, grandpa will teach you. We know that we will become the most talented people in the entire Qingshi Town, oh no, the entire Dayan."

"After Grandpa, he still points to you to take the champion exam!" Liu Wuji said with a smile.

Lin Xiaozhi heard a little excitement in his heart.

Grandpa had told him this more than once.

From the mouths of his mother and elder sister, he also knew that his grandfather really had such ability. Therefore, I have been expecting my grandfather to live at home forever and never leave.

But how long has it been before my grandfather left.

Uuuu...he didn't want to be separated from his grandfather.

Liu Wuji reached out and wiped a handful of tears from the little child's eyes.

"Heh, a man doesn't cry when he has tears. What is it like crying and chirping? I'm not afraid of being laughed at." Liu Wuji laughed again.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Lin Xiaozhi began to choked back tears.

Only then did Liu Wuji feel relieved.

Then he looked at the crowd again.

Finally, his eyes fell on Lin Xiaoyue.

"With you at home, grandpa can rest assured." He said.

"However, you are busy in the industrial park, and you have to be distracted at home. Xiao'er is not here, you have to work hard."

Lin Xiaoyue nodded quickly.

"Don't worry, Grandpa, I will take good care of Niang and Xiaozhi," he assured.

Liu Wuji felt at ease.

His eyes turned to the crowd again.

"Okay, let's go back. It's not too cold to stand here." He said.

The crowd listened, but did not move.

Liu Wuji frowned, then put Lin Xiaozhi down and handed it over to Lin Xiaoyue.

Immediately, he turned and got into the carriage.
