Now Yipinxiang has hired a few more people. There are a lot of sweet potatoes in the workshop, so we can start producing sweet potato flour.

With children at home, the house is lively all day long.

Zhou takes care of the child at home, and sometimes the diaper is wet again just after she changes it.

Mrs. Zhou didn't feel annoyed at all and happily served her eldest grandson.

Wei Xin was at home recuperating after giving birth. Zhou felt sorry for her and let her stay at home for the full two months.

When Li was in good spirits, she would keep her great-grandson by her side so that Zhou would have time to do other things.

The child grows fast. When he is one month old, he is white and plump, like the dolls in New Year pictures.

This is the first child in the family, and several family members will take time out every day to come and visit.

The little child was watching with great interest even with frowns on his face. Ye Qing held his nephew tightly and would not let go. Whenever he had free time, he would hug his little nephew and kiss him.

During the day, the fat boy’s parents couldn’t even get in line to hold their child.

Wei Xin needs to breastfeed, so she can still take a few glances at her baby every day.

Ye Dalang was not so lucky. He could not even touch the child during the day.

"Dad, have you thought of a name for the baby? I can't call him baby every day. When people ask me what his name is, I don't know what to say." Ye Dalang looked at Ye Lao Da and complained.

Boss Ye and Old Man Ye thought about it for more than a month, but Old Man Ye disliked the name that Boss Ye came up with. Boss Ye disliked the name that Old Man Ye came up with.

Old Man Ye was so angry that he went to stay at Old Man Ye's house for a few days.

Old Man Ye saw his son start to hesitate again and directly told him the name he had chosen.

"His nickname is Ping'an. Their generation is called Jing, so we call him Ye Jingping." After saying that, he glared at Boss Ye.

Boss Ye touched his nose and finally stopped objecting.

"Ping'an, this name is good. I don't ask him to be rich, but I hope he can live in peace and safety all his life." Ye Dalang was very satisfied.

Old man Ye was very happy to see that his grandson liked it.

Ping'an's name soon spread, and Ye Qing asked someone to make a pair of silver bracelets for his nephew.

Zhou gave a pair of silver locks, hoping that the child would be carefree and live a long life.

Ye Erlang gave the child a pair of silver bowls and chopsticks, hoping that the child would never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

Ye Chenjing is still studying, so it is not convenient for him to use the family's money to buy gifts for his nephew.

He observed his nephew for a month and drew pictures of him sleeping, crying, and smiling, saving them for him to look at when he grows up.

Ye Dalang liked these paintings very much, and he had someone frame them and put them in a cabinet, taking them out to look at them from time to time.

Ye Qing has been concentrating on the winery recently. There is nothing fancy about making sweet potato noodles, so he just has to follow the steps.

The winery has recently brewed several new varieties, and Ye Qing wishes he could live in the winery.

"Qingya, this place is a bit small. Now there are so many people buying our wine that the warehouse can't hold it all." Master Li came to Ye Qing with a worried look on his face.

Ye Qing followed Master Li to the warehouse, which was full of wine. At the current rate, it should be full in a few days.

Ye Qing came out of the warehouse and went to the accounting office, where he used an abacus to calculate the funds in his hands.

After calculating the undivided profits, I had an idea in my mind.

"Sister-in-law Xiufen, take a break. You're sweating all over." Ye Qing handed over a clean towel.

Xiufen took the towel, watched the wine being moved away, and followed Ye Qing into the accounting office.

"Qingya, is there something wrong? I see you seem to have something to say."

"Master Li just came to me and said that the warehouse was running out of space and asked me what to do."

Xiufen put down the towel in her hand and said, "I thought it was something else. If the wine shop brings the wine this afternoon, the warehouse will be cleared out."

Ye Qing picked up the account book on the table and turned to the order page, which recorded the wine to be shipped in the afternoon.

Ye Qing's frown relaxed, and his impatience lessened a bit.

"Sister-in-law, this is not a long-term solution. We still need to build our own winery and cannot keep renting a house in the village."

Xiufen felt a little distressed because she now had a son to raise and she had a burden.

Ye Qing knew Xiufen's thoughts. "Sister-in-law, you also know the profits of our winery. As the reputation of our wine grows, we earn more and more every day. Now, while we have time, buy a piece of land near the mosquito coil workshop. It will take several months to move in after the construction is completed."

Xiufen knew that what Ye Qing said made sense, and she lowered her head to think about the money in her hand.

The house has been rebuilt, and the food is all grown in the fields. Now I still have ten taels of silver in my hand, which is enough for the family to live for a long time.

The family has not been paying any money for half a year and has been able to make ends meet. There is also Tian San’s monthly salary, which is enough for the family to spend.

After thinking about this, he made up his mind and looked up at Ye Qing.

Ye Qing didn't know what Xiufen was thinking, so he proposed another plan, "I'll pay for the construction of the house, and the winery will rent it from me for one or two taels of silver per month."

Xiufen listened quietly to Ye Qing before expressing her thoughts.

"Qingya, I was able to gain a foothold in Kaoshan Village thanks to your help. Since this is a profitable business, I can't let you suffer any loss. Use the money in the account to build the workshop as soon as possible before the ground freezes."

Ye Qing looked at Xiufen excitedly. They were in a partnership and they still liked to settle accounts clearly.

Ye Qing built a workshop, but she had little money left, so she used all her money to buy land.

The three workshops ship and receive goods many times every day, and all the money in hand is tied up in the goods.

With Xiufen's consent, she asked Ye Xuan to find the village head to buy the land, and it would be better to find an expert to come and dig more cellars underneath.

Ye Xuan is very efficient now. He chose the address on the same day and the title deed was delivered the next day.

Ye Qing took the deed, which had her and Xiufen's names written on it. She looked at it again and handed it to Xiufen who was leaning over to take a look.

Xiufen took the title deed and read the words on it word by word. This was the first time she had earned a title deed in her life.

There were still about seven or eight days before the time for charcoal burning in the village, so Ye Qing found someone to start the work.

This time the wine shop is different from the mosquito coil shop. The mosquito coil shop boils mosquito repellent water in the summer, and it is actually cooler under the pavilion.

The winery needs to block light and meet temperature requirements, so it has to be built slowly and the cellar dug bit by bit.

Ye Xuan is in charge of building the winery, and Ye Qing comes to the winery every day, so there won't be any big trouble.

As soon as the foundation was laid, the young men in the village went up the mountain to look for trees to burn charcoal.

This year is a little different from other times. The trees on the mountain move less.

The head of the village didn't allow people to cut down too many trees. Just as Ye Qing said, if all the trees were cut down, it would rain heavily in the summer and the soil on the mountain would be washed down the mountain. Over time, the village relying on the mountain might be buried.

The head of the village took some people to Ji Village, ordered two thousand trees from them, and helped them make money.

Seeing that Kaoshan Village was making a lot of money by growing medicinal herbs in the forest, Xu Lizheng also led the villagers to buy forest land and make money with Kaoshan Village.

It is winter and there is not much work to do in the fields, so the men and boys in Ji Village take machetes and head into the mountains.

Some families who were reluctant to buy the forest land were beating their chests in regret, not expecting that they could make money as soon as they bought it.
