The billionaire girl: Daddy and Mommy, love me again

Chapter 107 The God of Wealth Arrives

Some people simply asked the doubts in their hearts.

When Liu heard someone asking her where her village was, her heart skipped a beat.

"Well! Where can we move to? We can move to the mountains, but it's a bit far from here. It's not easy to get out of the mountains. It takes a whole day to walk there.

Life in the mountains is too inconvenient. Fortunately, our house in town has been built and we will move in after the New Year."

Strictly speaking, Liu did not lie to them. If they had not found the shortcut down the mountain and had no tricycle, it would have taken them a whole day to get down the mountain.

After the Chinese New Year, Chengjia Village will open a paper mill and a printing factory at the foot of the mountain, and will also open up the mountain to plant fruit trees.

It will definitely attract more people's attention then.

In order to reduce the risk of exposure in the valley, the village let the young people live at the foot of the mountain and the elders stay on the mountain.

This is not only more convenient for adults, but also makes it easier for children to read.

Anyway, there is a tricycle, and if anything happens in the valley, it doesn’t take much time to make a round trip.

It would be impossible to ask them to abandon the valley and move everyone to the town.

The valley has a wide and flat terrain with abundant water resources, making it most suitable for farming.

Moreover, the valley is located at a high altitude, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack, making it the best shelter in the event of a natural disaster or man-made disaster.

Even if they were breached and the enemy approached them, they could retreat quickly and unexpectedly.

The valley is their last retreat.

In order to divert their attention, Liu hurriedly released the news that the Cheng family had purchased the tree bark and Chu tree bark.

When people heard about this good thing, they no longer had time to worry about the origins of the Cheng family.

"Really? Those things can be found everywhere. What do you Cheng family members need them for?"

"It's true. What good would it do for me to lie to you? Our Cheng family's brick factory is just outside the town. If I lied to you, you can go and ask them to compensate you. They are all my brothers."

After confirming the authenticity of the news again and again, the crowd dispersed instantly.

Although mulberry trees can be seen everywhere, they cannot withstand the large crowds. If you go too late, you may not be able to catch even a hair.

Mrs. Deng's daughter-in-law, Qiu Juhua, was also in the crowd.

She recognized Liu, the wife from Mr. Cheng's family who had sent fish to her mother-in-law.

Thanks to Mrs. Cheng, her son Hu Zi was finally able to eat his fill after drinking the fish soup.

Now he has been raised to be plump and white, and is no longer the skinny monkey he used to be.

Later, Mr. Cheng asked the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to work in the oil press factory. They only had to sit and pick tea seed kernels, but they were paid ten cents a day, and a lunch was included.

The food is not only large in portion and rich in fat, but you can also take the leftovers home.

Everyone knows that the Cheng family is kind-hearted, and this is a disguised way of helping them.

This is because the oil press only recruits the old, weak, sick and disabled people who have no food to eat.

During the most difficult and darkest days of their lives, it was the Cheng family who lit the lamps for them and led them to their bright future.

Later, they received their wages, and the mother-in-law found Mr. Cheng with the money and wanted to return the money for the fish, but he refused to take it.

They were also allowed to keep the money to buy food and build houses.

Now, they have moved out of the dirty and dilapidated shack and moved into a brand new blue brick house.

She had never thought that she could afford to live in a blue brick and tile house, although the house was small and the bricks were bought on credit from the Cheng family's brick factory.

But this was something she had never dared to dream of before. Now that the child is a few months old, she can rest assured to leave him in the care of her mother-in-law.

She went out to find work doing sewing, mending, and washing so that she could pay off her debt to the brick factory as soon as possible.

Although the bricks were bought on credit, hiring someone to build the house had used up all of her family's savings, and they no longer had any money to buy food for the New Year.

She walked through the streets and alleys of Cangwu Town today, but didn't earn a penny.

She was preparing to go home exhausted and dejected, but she felt sad when she thought about the fact that her family would soon run out of food and her lovely son and loving mother-in-law would have to spend the New Year hungry.

Suddenly, a group of smiling and energetic women appeared on the street, and she couldn't help but stop and watch.

Although their clothes are no different from everyone else's, they are also covered with patches.

But the difference is that each of them has a rosy face and a smile at the corners of their eyes. One can tell at a glance that they are living a very comfortable life.

They walked past her, leaving behind a trail of laughter.

She heard them discussing where to buy cloth, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.

Most importantly, she heard them say that the Cheng family collected tree bark.

Her heart was burning with anger. The Cheng family were truly living Bodhisattvas who saved people from suffering. They could have waited until after the New Year to make the acquisition, but they chose to release the news at this very moment.

This must be because they took into consideration that most people had just built their houses and had no money to buy food, so they wanted everyone to earn some money to buy food before the New Year and have a good New Year.

Even though she was filled with emotion, her reason told her to go home immediately to get a sickle and cut down the mulberry tree.

It has to be said that Qiu accidentally guessed the Cheng family's painstaking efforts.

The only cloth shop in the town welcomed a large number of customers. More than a hundred people crowded the small Jixiang Cloth Shop.

The owner of the cloth shop is surnamed Yan. He and his wife run the shop with their daughter.

The flood half a year ago not only took away the elderly in the family, but also destroyed all the hard work of several generations.

This shop was reopened last month, and it was bought from the Cheng family with his wife's dowry.

Business was as slow as usual that day, and the couple was so worried that they didn't even have the mood to prepare New Year's goods.

After the disaster, people could not even get enough food to eat, so how could they have money to buy cloth to make new clothes?

The meager income they earned from selling cloth every day was not enough to maintain basic living.

Early this morning, a magpie was chirping on the branch outside the door, and the owner of the grocery store next door laughed at him, saying that good things would happen to him today.

It was already the afternoon and the shop had only earned a dozen cents. He didn't know whether it was a happy event or not. He only knew that today they didn't even earn enough to feed their family of three. If this continued, they would have nothing to eat during the New Year.

The salt at home was used up, and the wife opened the empty coin box with a sad face. She took out the little money that was left with a sigh and was about to go to the shop next door.

Suddenly, there was a burst of noise coming from the street. The sweet laughter of the women was as festive as the call of magpies on the branches in the morning, which made people feel happy and hopeful.

Shopkeeper Yan's eyes were gleaming with ecstasy. He quickly ran to the door and was delighted to find that they were actually coming for his shop.

Moreover, he recognized the person leading the group. She was the prominent figure in Cangwu Town at that time, Mrs. Cheng's wife, Liu.

"Shopkeeper Yan, the God of Wealth has come to your house today. Your cloth shop has enough cloth and cotton in stock. We want a lot."

Liu joked with a smile.

"Enough! Enough, any amount is enough. If it's not enough, we can always adjust it! Quick! Everyone, please come in."

The shopkeeper's wife, Madam Fang, was overjoyed and quickly responded that although Liu and the others were dressed in shabby clothes, she would not dare to look down on them.

All the shops on several streets in Cangwu Town are owned by them, and these are not enough to sell. Their oil press and brick factory are also doing extremely good business. It is so popular that it is no exaggeration to say that they make a fortune every day.

I heard that they have more industries in Pingyang County.

It is no exaggeration to say that they are the gods of wealth.

"Lian'er, come down quickly and make tea for the guests."

Madam Fang shouted loudly towards the second floor.

"You're welcome, ma'am. Just bring out the fabrics for us to choose from."

Mrs. Xie felt a little embarrassed as she saw her family members crowding other people's shop so much that there was no room for them to turn around. She turned to Mrs. Zheng and the other mothers-in-law and said something.

"Why don't we let the young people choose the fabrics here? We can go buy other things first and come back to pay later. If everyone is crowded here, I'm afraid we won't be able to buy much after dark."

"That makes sense. We've almost run out of salt and sugar. We need to buy some. Let's go to the grocery store next door."

"I plan to buy some flour to make dumplings and buns for the New Year. I'm going to the grain store."

"........."

In this way, everyone dispersed according to their needs, and all the shops on the entire street were visited by the Cheng family today.

It was not until night fell that Shopkeeper Yan sent the Cheng family out of the shop and looked at the empty cloth shop, then he said slowly.

It turns out that the magpie this morning was telling everyone that the God of Wealth would be visiting today.
