Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

Sheng Xuan admired the girl's business acumen, but it was the first time he saw her sell nearly 500 sheep in just three days. You know, in just three days, Xiao Lan had handled 7,872 taels of silver. As a farmer, he had never touched so much silver in his life. He looked at the remaining eight sheep in the fence, secretly calculated the total value in his mind, and was secretly shocked. These were all silver.

Xiao Lan had no idea what his father was thinking, and even if he knew, he would just smile.

"Uncle Hu, we will go back to Shengjia Village tomorrow. You should pack up and go back to the city tomorrow. But I have to entrust you with one more thing. Pick four fat sheep and send them to General Shen's house. We were able to return from Xingyuan Prefecture smoothly this time, thanks to his help."

Hu Yidao nodded and responded.

The brothers Dajiang and Xiaohe naturally wanted to follow Xiaolan back to their hometown. From this trip to Xingyuan Prefecture, they truly witnessed Xiaolan's methods, which further strengthened their determination to follow Xiaolan.

"Uncle Hu, we will slaughter the remaining sheep in a few days. You can bring Aunt Liu and Xiaobao to eat the sheep's heads and soup." Xiaolan said.

When Xiaolan came back, Zhang, Shen and Xiaoting were turning over dried radishes in the yard. Zhang came over with a large bamboo basket, sat on a stool and turned over the radishes while chatting, "I don't know where Xiaolan has gone. She has been gone for nearly two months. I am really worried. Next time, I won't let her go so far away. Sigh..."

"Mom, Xiaolan is very capable. Don't worry. My dad has gone to the city to pick her up. He will be back soon." Although Xiaoting said this, her face showed worry. She said this just to comfort Zhang. In fact, she was very worried about Xiaolan in her heart.

This was also Sheng Xuan's fault. After he met Xiao Lan, customers came to buy sheep that very day. They were busy for three whole days and he was so busy that he even forgot to send a message to his family to inform them that he had met Xiao Lan.

When the three of them heard the sound of a carriage outside the door, they were overjoyed, thinking that their daughter had returned.

Xiaolan pushed the door open and entered, greeting Zhang, Shen, Xiaoting and everyone else. The family was reunited, and they naturally gathered around Xiaolan to listen to her stories about her experiences along the way, which amazed everyone.

This time she not only came back safely, but also brought a car full of goodies. Last time, Dajiang and Xiaohe only stayed for one night before following Xiaolan to Xingyuan Prefecture. No one was impressed. This time, Xiaolan brought the two brothers back. The two brothers learned a lot along the way and got stronger. The villagers looked at the two energetic young men, who seemed to be very strong, and were extremely envious.

Many people in Shengjia Village envy Sheng Xuan and Zhang, and there are probably some who are jealous and hate them. Xiaolan's family is no longer what it used to be. Their tofu workshop and weaving workshop have hired many people to work. The villagers have benefited from Xiaolan's family, so they naturally protect their family and hope that their family will get better and better, because only when their family is better can the villagers also drink soup and live a good life. You should know that Shengjia Village is the richest village in their town, which makes people in the surrounding area envious. Nowadays, young girls are willing to marry to Shengjia Village, because after coming here, there are more job opportunities than in other villages. After all, Xiaolan's family is in Shengjia Village, and job opportunities give priority to people in the village.

The villagers of Shengjia Village stood at the door of Xiaolan's house with envy, wanting to find out the news, but not daring to go in. Xiaolan's family was no longer on the same level as them, and the villagers had begun to habitually look up to their family, so even though Sheng Xuan brought Xiaolan and two young men back with a cart full of goodies, they were envious and even jealous, but they didn't dare to say a bad word, at most they said a few sour words, saying that Sheng Xuan and Zhang had given birth to a good daughter.

After Xiaolan greeted everyone, she unloaded the things she bought from Xingyuan Prefecture one by one. Zhang looked around and said, "Are you preparing New Year's goods?"

"That's about right. Next time there's a market, we can just buy some incense, candles and firecrackers." Xiao Lan said as everyone followed her to move the things back into the house.

Dajiang and Xiaohe still lived in the manor. When the two brothers came back this time, Zhang and Shen had already made four new quilts and two sets of cotton clothes for them. After all, Xiaolan had said last time that the two brothers would be their family members in the future. For their own family, Zhang and Shen took advantage of their time away from home to make all their quilts.

There was a lot of work to do at home, and the two young men could help Sheng Xuan share some of the work, and the whole family was happy to see them. And after getting to know the two brothers over the past few days, Sheng Xuan also felt that they were good brothers who could endure hardships and stand hard work. Apart from other things, just the dedication to Xiao Lan moved Sheng Xuan.

"Then how much do you plan to pay them?" Sheng Xuan asked.

Xiao Lan had plans for the two brothers. She smiled and said, "Fifty taels a year is the starting salary. If you do well, you can get a share."

The whole family looked stunned. You know, fifty taels is not a small amount of money, and there will be dividends at the end of the year, which is even more incredible.

Although Sheng Xuan's expression was not very natural, he said that he had seen Xiao Lan making money by selling sheep, so he nodded indifferently.

Seeing her mother's stunned expression, Xiao Lan ran over and hugged her shoulders, whispering in her ear with a smile, "Mom, do you know how much money we made on this trip?"

"How much?" Zhang asked mechanically.

Xiao Lan leaned close to her ear and said a number. Zhang immediately held her chest and looked at her with wide eyes. She must have heard it right. Xiao Lan said she earned more than 10,000 taels of silver.

Zhang didn't come back to her senses for a long time. She just mechanically muttered to herself, "Giving someone fifty taels of silver a year is not much, really not much."

After everything was settled, Xiao Lan called the two brothers over and told them about the arrangements. "Come here for meals in the future. If you don't want to come, you can move some food to your residence and cook for yourself. In case you get hungry at night, you can cook for yourself."

Dajiang and Xiaohe quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Shengxuan and Zhang. "Thank you, Third Master and Third Madam."

Sheng Xuan hurriedly pulled them up. He felt their hands were cold, and knew that the two brothers had been hungry and cold since childhood. His heart softened, "Since you are here, just stay here. Our family is easy to talk to. If you need anything, just tell me or my daughter, and we will get it for you."
