Chapter 164 Are You Willing to Come with Me?

Fuwa brought the group of kids back and said nothing was wrong, and they went back to the pharmacy.

In the evening, Liu Yuhan drew a design drawing in pencil in the space.

Three acres of land have been reserved for pig and chicken farms, and seven acres are available.

The two acres of land are planned to be built into small family suites, with each suite limited to three rooms and within 60 square meters.

The other three acres of land were made into three large courtyards, two of which were similar to dormitories for boys and girls, but there should be at least 20 rooms, each about 28 square meters, with one courtyard for boys and one courtyard for girls.

The layout of the other courtyard is slightly different. In addition to the kitchen and dining room, there are several more large rooms as backup.

She left two mu of land to build a workshop, planning to open a seasoning workshop. In her dynasty, there was no chicken essence, and seasonings were all made from thick bone broth, and soy sauce was mostly made from meat.

Changle County is a coastal city, so dried shrimp shouldn't be hard to find. Shrimp and mushrooms can be used to make chicken powder. Soy sauce can be made from soybeans. You can also make your own five-spice powder. Chili peppers are grown extensively in spring, so you can make your own chili powder. In winter, you can even make barbecue seasoning.

Liu Yuhan gave the blueprints and plans and five hundred taels to his father, and asked him to find a skilled craftsman to recruit more people to build the houses first. He should first build a large yard of three acres for living, then build the workshop, and leave the suites to be built last.

The water supply and toilets must be planned well, and the actual situation must be implemented according to the circumstances when the time comes.

After Liu Guang and others finished their exams, they returned to Fulai Village to study and wait for the results. Liu Lu studied even harder. His goal was not only to pass the Tongsheng exam, he also wanted to take part in the August Autumn Examination.

The boy in the pharmacy has recovered. During this period, Liu Yuhan visited the courtyard to change his medicine. Kuwawa still insisted on giving them ten copper coins every day.

Liu Yuhan came over that day to chat with Grandma Zhang who lived in the courtyard.

"Girl, are you serious? Can you really accept them and take them away?"

"Not just them. If Grandma Zhang is willing, you can go too. After all, they have developed a bond with you and are more willing to listen to you. Little Eleven also needs to be taken care of by someone."

"Girl... I originally wanted to live with Xiaoyi, I..."

"Grandma Zhang, the villagers in our Fulai Village are all very easy to get along with. I've also told you about my family situation. You and my grandma are about the same age, so we're sure we can get along."

"Don't worry about being a burden to anyone. After all, I accepted them, provided them with food and shelter, and asked them to work."

"Of course, of course. These kids are a bit noisy, but they know how to do things. They're not bad people."

"Then it's settled. I'll go find Kuwa."

"Okay, thank you girl."

Liu Yuhan found Ku Wa, who was feeding porridge to Xiao Shiyi, and the two of them sat on low stools. He was very skilled, and it was obvious that he hadn't learned it overnight. Xiao Shiyi was also very obedient, opening his mouth to cooperate.

Liu Yuhan squatted beside Xiao Shiyi, who smiled brightly at her and called her sister. Liu Yuhan picked her up and patted her head.

"I've already told Grandma Zhang, are you willing to come with me? Let's go to Fulai Village and start a new life."

Ku Wa put down the bowl and called all the children in the room and in the yard to come over. He was the first to kneel before Liu Yuhan, and the others followed suit.

"What are you doing? Get up quickly."

"Sister Liu, we've decided to go with you. We don't have any other skills and we're still underage. We don't want you to suffer any loss. We're willing to sell ourselves and serve you as our master. Please agree, Sister Liu!"

"You never considered selling yourself when you were in trouble, so why would you do that now? I'm taking you away, ensuring you have enough food and clothing, because I want to help me. If you truly thank me, just work hard for me in the future. You'll sign a contract when you work for me. Hurry and get up. A man's knees are made of gold, so you shouldn't kneel before others casually."

"Thank you, Sister Liu. We will definitely do our best for you."

"Kuwa, besides you, are there any other children like you in Changle County?"

"Yes, there are many. But I don't know many people who don't steal and work to earn money. They live in the dilapidated temple outside the city. Brother Tiger takes care of them."

"Brother Tiger?"

"Well, Brother Hu is seven years older than me. He knows martial arts, so he brought people to occupy the dilapidated temple. They will help the people in the village work to get food and cloth."

"Oh."

"Can I go meet them?"

"Sister Liu, why don't you go back and wait for my news?"

"Alright."

Liu Yuhan waited for two days before Ku Wa brought people to the pharmacy to look for her.

Liu Yuhan saw that the person next to Hu Wa was in a trance for a moment, and she almost shouted out those two words!

This man not only resembled Jiang Lu in build, but also had a face that was 70% similar to Jiang Lu. She lowered her eyes and calmed her mind.

It couldn't be him, he just looked like her. Her current appearance was already 80% similar to my modern self. If it was him, he would recognize her...

"Doctor Liu, I'm Jiang Hu. There are 73 people in the temple. Five of us are over 50 years old, and I'm the oldest at 5. There are 21 boys and 38 girls. Except for the youngest, a two-year-old girl who can't work, everyone else can. We are willing to follow you back to Fulai Village."

"I haven't even made any conditions yet, so why are you willing to go to Fulai Village?"

"I went to Fulai Village yesterday."

"Oh?" The man went to inquire in person.

"So what did you think of going to Fulai Village?"

"We are willing to settle down in Fulai Village. We just hope that Dr. Liu will treat us the same as the people in the workshop."

"The people in the workshop are all capable, and they've signed five-year contracts. Some have even signed indentures to sell their bodies. How can you expect me to treat them the same way?"

"We won't sign an indenture, but a five-year contract is fine. You can let us try out for a few days first, and then keep us if you're satisfied. We absolutely won't complain."

"Of course, most of our children are between 10 and 13 years old, so half the wages are enough. For children under 8, no wages are a problem, as long as they have food, drink and a place to stay."

"I'm going to the temple to see someone."

"of course can."

"Fuwa, bring the carriage over here."

"Okay, Miss."

The carriage could only stop at the foot of the mountain. Liu Yuhan walked to the temple halfway up the mountain. It was a semi-old temple. Although it looked like they were living a bit crowded, it was quite clean.

There are distinct areas on both sides, separated in the middle by firewood and coarse cloth, which should be the areas for men and women.

An old woman was sitting at the door of the temple, making a fire and cooking. A little girl was playing by herself beside her. The child was very clean and wearing a red, half-new cotton-padded jacket.

When she saw Jiang Hu, she ran over and hugged his legs. Jiang Hu picked her up and grinned with his big white teeth to tease the little girl.

"Tiger boy, what is this?"

"Auntie, this is Doctor Liu I told you about last night. Will the others be back soon?"

"It's almost there. Please take a seat, Miss Liu."

The woman took two low stools, wiped them and gave them seats.

Jiang Hu went to greet them.

Liu Yuhan saw the woman cooking white rice porridge and steaming black-faced buns in another pot, so she started chatting with her.

"We exchanged these grains with farmers. If we eat them sparingly, we can last a while and won't starve."

"When he's craving meat, Hu Zi will go hunting. He can trade his fur for coarse salt and cloth."

"All of us are thanks to Hu Zi. He could have been free and didn't have to worry about us..."

"The little girl in your arms was a child abandoned on the roadside. He picked her up. She was only a few months old and he almost died. It was Hu Zi who did hard labor and exchanged goat milk for others to slowly raise her. The child is very affectionate to him and treats him like a father."

"Girl, have I said too much..."

"No, auntie, I like listening to you talk."

"Yeah. At the beginning, there weren't so many people in the temple, only about ten. In the past two years, Hu Zi has been bringing those orphans who have no one to take care of them in the city to the mountains..."

……

A quarter of an hour later, Jiang Hu came back with a group of people.

It was indeed as he said, most of them were children around 10 years old, and there were also some older ones around or years old. They stood outside the cave somewhat stiffly, secretly looking at the possible future owner.

Liu Yuhan glanced over and saw that they were all wearing tattered cloth shoes and old clothes. They were in much better condition than Ku Wa and his group. Their complexions were also obviously much better. It seemed that Jiang Hu was a capable person.

Liu Yuhan refused their late lunch and left with Fuwa. Before leaving, he told Jiang Hu that he could pack his bags and wait for a day, and someone would come to pick him up the next day.
