Only this green, not disappointing the spring

This matter is really a headache. Li Shoucai didn't have this plan when he came here. But Zhao Fugui was too cunning and directly took the job for the people in his own village!

This way, it's a bit unethical...

Li Shoucai pointed at Zhao Fugui angrily.

"Good boy, you dug a hole for us to jump into, and now that we're in it, you're playing the good guy again! In that case, let's give half of the vegetable plot we agreed on to Shuying Village!"

That wouldn't work! There were only eight acres of land in total, and there were more than a hundred people in the village, which was not enough to go around. He was already worried about it! If he gave away half of it, wouldn't they be left with nothing?

"Brother Li, look at what you said. I just remembered this too. There are only eight acres of land in total, how can you have the nerve to ask me to give you half! Xiaoxi girl, you are so smart, come up with another idea."

Zhou Xiaoxi smiled and shook his head.

"Two village heads, don't be anxious. You will be busy in the future. As for Shuying Village, the handicraft workshop is almost completed, and they may recruit more people. Let's give this opportunity to their village."

Zhao Fugui felt upset, but he couldn't say anything. Alas, there were many capable girls in their village!

……

As soon as Zhou Xiaoxi and his party entered the entrance of Xiangxue Village, they saw a group of children playing there. As soon as they saw them, they immediately swarmed over and talked about something.

There were too many people and it was so noisy that I couldn't hear anything clearly.

Li Shoucai shouted, "Stop! Be quiet!"

Seeing that the children had finally quieted down, he looked around and found Li Daniu who was squeezed on the periphery, and quickly called out:

"Daniu, come over here and tell me what's going on."

Li Daniu had been squeezing for a long time and couldn't get close to the donkey cart. Now that it was quiet, he was too lazy to move forward and just said loudly:

"The county magistrate is here. He's at my grandmother's house now. He's been waiting for a while. You and cousin Xiaoxi should hurry over!"

Wow, it's really concise! Li Shoucai clearly heard every word, but when he put them together, he was a little confused.

What the hell? The county magistrate came to their village? Was he hallucinating? ! Right? !

Old man Liu, who was driving, didn't give the driver time to get confused. He patted the donkey and signaled it to speed up.

After entering the village, Donkey Deshui was about to see his wife, and he was already very excited. After being prompted by his master, he ran even faster. The children who informed him ran behind him at first, but were soon left behind.

Actually, there was nothing to be surprised about. The county magistrate must have come to their village for the tour. Zhou Xiaoxi had been planning to send an invitation to the other party, so this made things easier.

When I arrived at the door of my house, the gate was already crowded with people, but it was also very quiet.

They were probably afraid of offending the most important official in the county, but they were also really curious so they gathered at the gate to watch the fun.

Zou Shiye came here this time, on the one hand to inspect the preparations for the three villages' cooperative appreciation party, but there was another very important reason -

The reward from above came down, and while he was commended, he was also assigned a task: to secretly reward Zhao and Zhou Xiaoxi who provided clues.

The truth of the matter cannot be made public, so the award cannot be made known to outsiders. What a pity, this family could have risen to prominence.

Before Zhou Xiaoxi came, Zou Shiye had already given the court's reward to Zhao: a reward of 1,000 taels of silver and a jade pendant.

Zou Shiye was jealous of this jade pendant, it was like a gold medal of immunity from death! Although it couldn't be used casually, it could really save lives at critical moments!

However, he also gained a lot of benefits. He only needed to be re-elected for another three years to jump two levels and be promoted to prefect. He left a good impression on the higher-ups, and it was just around the corner for him to be promoted to prefect!

Therefore, Zou Shiye is now very happy because of this family. For this reason, he is also willing to help them more.

Along the way, I realized that there is no harm without comparison. The scenery of Xiangxue Village is breathtaking!

As soon as Li Shoucai entered the yard, he saw the county magistrate sitting in the main hall. His knees went weak and he was about to kneel down, but was helped up by the guards beside Zou Shiye.

"Captain Li, there's no need to be so polite. I'm here incognito this time. Let's just get along freely and don't get bogged down in formalities."

Zhou Xiaoxi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was a good thing. It was really uncomfortable for a modern person like her to kneel down suddenly!

Being interrupted like this, she just bent her knees and tried to get away with it.

"I wonder why you have come here in person, sir? I will certainly cooperate with you to the fullest extent." Li Shoucai said very humbly.

Zhou Xiaoxi felt uncomfortable after hearing this, she couldn't speak in a fancy way!

"You don't have to feel stressed. I just came to see how the village's planned appreciation party is going. On the way here, I took a car to take a general tour of the village. Mr. Li, you did a great job!"

Li Shoucai dared not take credit for it, he hurriedly stood up and bowed, then explained anxiously:

"Your Excellency is too kind to praise me. I dare not take any credit for it. This is all the work of Xiaoxi girl and the two young masters in the city."

Zou Shiye immediately became interested when he heard this and asked:

"Oh? Can you tell me in detail?"

Li Shoucai looked at Zhou Xiaoxi for help, although he was not the one who was most familiar with this matter.

Zhou Xiaoxi immediately answered openly:

"Sir, what the village head said is not accurate enough. This is actually the result of the joint efforts of our entire village. As for the inn at the entrance of the village, it was built by the owners of Shangpin Pavilion and Baicaotang in the city. I just give some suggestions occasionally. I dare not take credit for it."

Zhou Xiaoxi just wanted to earn money quietly and had no interest in being a conspicuous bag. Moreover, this society does not expect women to be capable, because this would threaten the interests of the patriarchal society.

Zhou Xiaoxi is determined not to do anything like an ant trying to shake a big tree.

How could Zou Shiye not see the girl's thoughts? She was not greedy or ostentatious, but was beautiful and intelligent. He saw through her but did not say anything. Following Zhou Xiaoxi's words, he continued to ask:

"I've heard of both of those shops, especially the Shangpin Pavilion, which was very popular a few years ago. I wonder how you got in touch with them?"

Zhou Xiaoxi couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This person really had a hundred thousand questions. Do those in higher positions like to get to the bottom of things?

She could only explain patiently:

"Our village and the two of them are connected because of the Xiangxue pears in our village. Speaking of this, I have to thank the county magistrate's wife. It was because I participated in the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet held by your wife that the pears I brought were loved by everyone. Our village's pears are also sold well because of this. Here, I would like to thank the county magistrate's wife on behalf of the whole village!"

Too lazy to explain too much, Zhou Xiaoxi simply changed the subject and tried his best to flatter the boss.

Zou Shiye was indeed very happy to hear this and exclaimed that it was a wonderful fate.

Later, Zhou Xiaoxi took Zou Shiye to visit their newly built inn. The surrounding brassicas already had yellow buds.

It’s refreshing at first glance!

Zou Shiye even wanted to buy a piece of land here to build a leisure village. But he thought that doing so might be suspected of occupying the villagers' land, so he gave up.

Now he must take good care of his reputation.

When Zhou Xiaoxi came, he brought the sample letter he had prepared earlier and handed it to the county magistrate with both hands very respectfully.

"Before the fair is officially open to the public, we plan to have a three-day trial run. This is the invitation. We hope you will be able to come and bring your family along."

When Zou Shiye took the invitation, he saw that it was made of bamboo, with red paper pasted inside. There was an invitation written in large gold-plated characters, and three flowers were painted next to it: pear blossoms, peach blossoms and apricot blossoms.

He unconsciously recited the most eye-catching words on it - Forget-Your-Worries Appreciation Party.

Zou Shiye looked at Zhou Xiaoxi deeply, and then said solemnly:

"Okay, I will come in five days!
