In the end, based on their trust in their granddaughter and the fact that all the money in the family was earned by her, the three of them nodded in agreement.

"Okay, girl Yan, whatever you say is okay. You always have your own ideas. We will do whatever you say. We will listen to you."

There was no rebuttal or questioning, and the family gave unanimous and warm support.

Leng Yan felt quite encouraged after hearing this. The unity of her family standing on her side instantly calmed her somewhat uneasy heart.

At the same time, I am more determined to do this well so as not to let down the trust and support of my family and partners.

After things were agreed upon, Leng Yan took action immediately.

She put some rice dumplings in a basket and wrapped two large bags of spicy potato chips, then went to Village Chief Lan's house with her grandfather to finalize the location of the foundation.

Village Chief Lan heard that they were going to buy land, build a factory, and then recruit people from the village to work.

It was really a surprise over and over again. This is a great thing.

He can lead the villagers to become rich and make the village famous.

Taojing Village, which is famous for its porcelain, is the best example.

Every household had a kiln that could make porcelain. They became famous through porcelain and promoted the travel of caravans, so their business was booming.

Nowadays, when people mention porcelain or want to buy porcelain, the first thing they think of is Taojing Village. Therefore, every household in Taojing Village has become rich by making porcelain.

If their Lengzhan Village could also make a name for itself with the soap that Leng Yan mentioned, it would be the second Taojing Village.

By then every household will be able to have enough food to eat and will no longer go hungry. As the village chief, he will be pleased and will also make a breakthrough in his political achievements.

In other words, the soap that Leng Yan mentioned would not achieve any significant results.

But just for this reason, it can allow the villagers to earn some money to supplement their family income in their spare time, which is a good thing.

Therefore, Village Chief Lan immediately provided a suitable location for the foundation and sold it to the Leng family at the best price.

The next day, he went to the county government office in person and signed the contract in one go.

Leng Yan was very happy holding the deed. She felt relieved as she had accomplished something important.

The winter wheat in the field will be harvested in two days, and she plans to start building the factory after the Harvest Festival.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, especially during the wheat harvest days when the sun is extremely scorching.

The villagers all wore straw hats, bent over with sickles in their hands, and sweated profusely as they cut wheat in the fields.

The weather is like this. If the sun is shining, it's too hot. If it rains, we're afraid the wheat will fall over and get soaked in water.

Combining the two, the villagers work in the fields every day under the scorching sun.

The Leng family's food store has been closed for the past few days due to the wheat harvest holiday. The aunts have to go home to harvest wheat, and the Leng family members are doing the same.

Getting up early in the morning, when it was still dim, Mr. Leng took his second and third sons to the fields to harvest wheat while it was still cool.

After that, Zhang Cuiniang and others who had prepared breakfast at home, after eating at home, brought the breakfast of the three grandfathers to the fields and gave it to them.

Harvesting wheat is a big event, and every household has to take part in it.

Each family member wore a straw hat, carried a basket on his back, and drove a ox cart with a sickle, heading to the fields in a mighty procession.

The Leng family has a total of eight acres of land, all of which are planted with wheat. The adult labor force in the Leng family is composed of Mr. Leng, Leng Xun, and Zhang Cuiniang.

As for Gu Yin, Zifeng and the other man who were recuperating at the Leng family, their injuries had not fully healed and they did not look like they could do farm work.

So they were left at home to feed the chickens, ducks and rabbits, and water the vegetable garden in the backyard.

It's hot now, so the vegetable garden needs to be watered once in the morning and once in the evening, so that the vegetables won't wilt.

It would probably take three or four days to harvest eight acres of land without the help of any machinery.

After the family arrived at the fields, they divided the work. Grandpa Leng, Leng Xun and Zhang Cuiniang were responsible for harvesting the wheat.

There were two ox carts in the family, Leng Huai and Leng Cang each drove one, and were responsible for loading the harvested wheat onto the carts and transporting it to the threshing ground.

Leng Su and Leng Yan were also responsible for helping to load the truck, and also took on the tasks of making tea, delivering water and cooking.

The two younger ones, Leng Qi and Leng He, were responsible for picking up the fallen ears of wheat.

Farming is not easy for farmers. Every grain of food is hard-earned and they are reluctant to waste even a single grain.

The whole family worked enthusiastically. After an ox cart was filled with wheat, Leng Huai and Leng Yan quickly secured it with hemp ropes.

Finally, the two of them got on the ox cart and drove to the village threshing ground.

The threshing ground in the village is very large, and each household has its own area. The Leng family's area is on the outer edge, so it is very convenient to come and go.

When the ox cart arrived, the two men jumped off the cart nimbly, untied the hemp rope, unloaded the wheat and spread it on the threshing ground, and then threshed it together.

After the two men finished unloading, they saw from afar Aunt Liu and her son Zhan Jiang pushing a wheelbarrow full of wheat towards the threshing ground.

A wheelbarrow is not as light as an oxcart, nor can it pull as much as an oxcart, and it is very laborious to use, but it is an indispensable tool for every household because not everyone can afford an oxcart.

A few days ago, many villagers came to the Leng family to borrow ox carts.

Some wanted to borrow ox carts to transport wheat, some wanted to borrow oxen to plow the fields, in short, there was an endless stream of people coming.

Old Man Leng loves his cows, but he cannot ignore the villagers.

Therefore, he just said vaguely that he would lend it out after he had used up his own money.

"Hey, Huai'er, it's Yan."

When Aunt Liu saw them, she wiped the sweat from her forehead and greeted them with a smile.

"Are you tired? Look at your little face, it's all sunburned."

Even wearing straw hats couldn't block the sultry weather. Everyone was sweating profusely and their cheeks were red.

"It's okay, Auntie, Brother Zhan Jiang, we'll go back to the fields first."

After unloading the wheat, the two men climbed onto the ox cart and headed back to the field.

We were busy all day long until noon the next day.

The weather was unusually hot, and experienced elders noticed that it was a precursor to heavy rain.

When the villagers heard this, they all sped up their wheat harvesting.

After a year of good weather and finally the wheat is ripe and ready for a good harvest, we can’t let heavy rain ruin it.

Even though every household is busy, they still have to eat.

Therefore, seeing that the time was almost up, Leng Su and her nephew Leng Yan carried their water jugs and went home to cook.

The weather was hot. I worked all day yesterday and had no appetite when I got home.

So Leng Yan wanted to make some cool and refreshing cold noodles today.

She picked half a basket of fresh and tender cucumbers from the vegetable garden and then put them in well water to cool.

After that, she kneaded the dough and started washing the gluten, which was a complicated and time-consuming process.

Leng Su took advantage of this time to boil several pots of mint water, poured it into clay jars, let it cool, and took it to the fields to drink.

The weather is hot and we sweat a lot. To prevent heat stroke, we must drink mint water.
