Ye Tang took Jamel Xiao for a walk around the periphery of Ziyan Mountain, and finally chose a location with fewer trees and weeds: "The soil in this location is very suitable for growing dragon fruit."

She made a preliminary estimate and found that she could open up more than one acre of wasteland in this place and use it to grow dragon fruit. Then she could reclaim other wasteland next to this land to grow grapes. There are many kinds of grapes, such as crystal grapes, thumb grapes, jasmine grapes...

She plants all the varieties available in the seed space.

It would be a shame not to grow anything on such a big mountain!

"What exactly is a dragon fruit?" Jamel Xiao yawned. He was forced to get up early. He was in a bad mood. If the other person wasn't his wife, he would have kicked her away.

"I can't explain it to you clearly now. You'll know after the crops are grown." Ye Tang waved the hoe and outlined the area that needed to be reclaimed. "This much is enough for the time being. Husband, I'll leave the matter of digging the wasteland to you."

"You want me to open up new land?" Xiao Jingxuan's eyes widened, and he didn't have time to refuse.

Ye Tang smiled and said, "How can I ask you to come and open up the wasteland? I want you to find someone to do it. In addition to opening up the wasteland, you also have to plow the remaining land of our family. I can't handle it alone."

Jamel Xiao breathed a sigh of relief instantly: "I'm scared to death. Just don't let me open up the wasteland. Leave the task of finding people to me. I don't have anything else. I have many nephews and grandchildren. They are all hardworking and capable."

Ye Tang stopped him: "You can ask them to do the work, but you have to pay them."

"My family..."

"Family members should be clear about accounts." Ye Tang said seriously, "This piece of land is not big. I will pay you 300 coins, but I don't include food. You can find people by yourself. No matter how many people come, the price will be the same. You must cultivate this piece of land within two days. As for plowing the land, I will pay you 25 coins, but I don't include food either."

This piece of land doesn't look big, but there are quite a few stones, as well as some trees and grass, so it's a bit troublesome to clear it.

The money she gave was not much, but not less either. It was calculated based on the wages for working in town.

Those who come to work can all come together as a family.

Jamel Xiao snorted: "It's really troublesome. If you ask me, it's enough to plant the few plots of land at home..."

Ye Tang crossed her arms and looked at him: "Don't you want to eat more delicious fruit ice powder?"

Jamel Xiao turned and left: “I’ll go find someone right away.”

Ye Tang walked behind him carrying a hoe, and picked some golden needle flowers to make soup in the evening.

Daylily, I eat it every day recently

After leaving the mountain, Xiao Jingxuan went to look for someone, and Ye Tang went home to make breakfast. When she got home, Wang Chenggong and his team had already come to work and were working hard. When they saw her, they greeted her with a smile.

Ye Tang went to the kitchen and cooked two large bowls of dumpling soup. Today's soup was made with bok choy.

When the dumpling soup was ready, Jamel Xiao ran back on time.

He was sweating profusely, and it was obvious that he was running all the way to look for someone.

"I'm starving."

Jamel Xiao drank the soup in big gulps.

Ye Tang sat opposite him holding a large bowl and asked:

"I went to my fifth brother and told him about the land reclamation project. When he learned that we were willing to pay 300 coins, he called his three nephews over to discuss the matter. He asked them to work together and split the wages equally, with each family getting 100 coins. Tiemu was the best at plowing the land, so I gave the task to him."

Ye Tang nodded: "The three brothers can eat together if there is meat, it won't hurt the harmony."

After a pause, she continued, "I'm going to town in a while, do you want to go with me?"

Jamel Xiao shook his head: “No.”

"Oh." Ye Tang said no more and ate the dumpling soup quietly.

After dinner, Jamel Xiao washed the dishes again.

Jamel Xiao was very dissatisfied: "Why do I have to wash the dishes every time?"

Ye Tang looked at him: "Because I really don't like washing pots and dishes."

She loves cooking, but really hates washing dishes.

"We are husband and wife, we need to support each other. I cook and you wash the pots and dishes. Men and women work together, so the work won't be tiring."

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr.

Ye Tang took a backpack, gave Jamel Xiao a smile, and went out.

Jamel Xiao’s shoulders slumped again and again.

He, the great sixth great-grandfather of the Xiao family, became a dishwasher.

Not long after Ye Tang left, the families of Master Xiao Wu's three sons also came to work.

Except for the young and strong Xiao Wenchao, Xiao Wenle, Xiao Wenwu, Xiao Wenhe and a few others who went to the town to find work and were not here, the rest of the people came, most of them were women and children.

Jamel Xiao didn't say a word and directed them to Ziyan Mountain: "This is the area, just open it up."

Xu Meilan glanced at other places and said, "I think the places next to these are good too. We can definitely grow something there after digging them up. Why don't we dig them together?"

Xiao Jingxuan: "I don't have enough money."

Xiao Tieshan opened his mouth to say something, but Xiao Jingxuan raised his hand and said, “I won’t let you work for nothing, just dig here.”

Xiao Tieshan and others found it unbelievable and thought they had heard it wrong.

In the past, Xiao Jingxuan relied on his status as an elder to make his nephews and grandchildren work for nothing. Today, he actually had a conscience, which was incredible.

This is all thanks to Ye Tang. Because of her, Jamel Xiao has become a human being. He was not a human being before.

Xiao Jingxuan had no idea what his nephews and nieces were thinking. After explaining everything to them, he waved goodbye and left Ziyan Mountain.

Xiao Tieshan and his companions thought that he was just being lazy again and wanted to go back to sleep, so they paid no attention to him and started working with hoes and sickles.

......

Not long after Ye Tang left the village, he hailed a ox cart and went to town. The driver was from Wenggang Village, and everyone called him Old Man Xu.

Arriving in town, Ye Tang went straight to her father's pork stall.

Sure enough, she saw her father and brother were here.

It's a hot day today and I sweat profusely after taking two steps.

Ye Ping'an's ice jelly business is so prosperous that he can't handle it all by himself.

Ye Peng’s braised meat and fresh meat business is also very good.

After not setting up their stall for a few days, their regular customers missed them father and son.

Ye Tang came to Ye Peng and put down the backpack: "Dad, did everything go well today?"

"Why are you here?" Ye Peng smiled and said, "It went well. Nothing happened at the moment."

Feng Tianbao's men did not come to cause trouble for the time being.

"That's good." Ye Tang nodded and went to help Ye Ping'an.

"Sister, ice jelly sells very well, so I prepared less." Ye Ping'an said regretfully.

In order to sell ice jelly, he prepared two small tables and ten small stools, as well as a dozen wooden bowls and wooden spoons, so that customers could eat here conveniently. After eating, he would wash the bowls and spoons and continue selling.

The guests are very conscientious. After eating the ice jelly, they will consciously return the bowls and chopsticks. If there is not enough space, they will just find a place to squat or stand and eat.

"The customers didn't dare to buy at first, after all, they didn't know what it was. It was only after I ate a little in front of them and put some samples in a bowl for them to try that they dared to buy." Ye Ping'an was busy and sweating, but he enjoyed it.

"You still can't do it alone, call Chengye next time."

Half an hour later, all the ice jelly was sold out.

Customers who didn't buy any were dissatisfied: "It's sold out so quickly, and I haven't bought any yet, little brother, why don't you make more?"

Returning customers also looked regretful.

"I should have bought two more bowls."

"Brother Ping An, are you coming tomorrow?"

Ye Pingan nodded heavily: "Come, I will definitely come."

One hundred bowls of ice jelly, three cents a bowl. Except for the sugar being a bit expensive, the fake nightshade and wild fruits are free. It’s a sure win!

Ye Ping'an once again regretted that he had not done enough.

The braised meat and fresh meat had not been sold out yet, so Ye Ping'an closed his stall and went to help out at the meat stall.

Ye Tang saw that there was nothing else for him to do, so he picked up his backpack and went to buy some goods. Before he had taken a few steps, he saw a group of people coming towards the pork stall with great momentum.

Those people were carrying a stretcher with a man lying on it, holding his stomach and screaming.

"It hurts so much! The Ye family's braised meat is killing me!"
