I have been farming since I crossed over.

Lu Jintang smiled and said, "No, I will arrange for someone to handle it here. If there are any problems, I will let Lu Da contact you directly. I have other things to deal with."

Yang Mingxi nodded without saying anything.

After the snack street matter was settled, Lu Jintang took Yang Mingxi to the backyard of the county government office.

Tang Jiahang's attendant saw Lu Jintang and stepped forward, saying, "Master Thirteen, please sit in the study for a moment. I will go and call my master."

Lu Jintang and Yang Mingxi had just sat down, and the servants hadn't even brought their tea yet, when Tang Jiahang came over and asked as soon as he entered the room, "Uncle, are you free? Do you still have time to come to me?"

Without even looking up, Lu Jintang said, "Give me that piece of wasteland at the city gate next to the moat. I want to build a whole snack street there."

Tang Jiahang said, "Tell Master Qin to bring over the county annals."

Lu Jintang said, "Contact Ziqian and find a time to come over and meet. We need to start some planning, otherwise it will be too late later."

Tang Jiahang nodded and was about to say something when Master Qin said at the door, "Sir, I'm here with the county annals."

Tang Jiahang said, "Come in. Show me the wasteland next to the moat in Chengdong."

Master Qin pointed to a small piece of open space between two rivers and said, "It should be here. It's about five acres."

Tang Jiahang said, "It will be turned into a residential plot and put under the name of my youngest uncle."

Master Qin nodded and said, "Yes, I will bring the land deed over later."

Tang Jiahang said, "I'll use the money from my private vault and send it over after it's processed."

After Master Qin left, Tang Jiahang looked at Yang Mingxi and asked, "What are your plans, Uncle?"

Lu Jintang said, "Prepare to set up the grain stores, inns, and restaurants, all in Ziqian's name. Every county must be involved, as well as the escort agencies and carriage companies. First, deploy the manpower. When he arrives, have him come to me to discuss the details."

Tang Jiahang said, "Okay, I'll contact him right away. But he should also know that my great-grandfather and his family will be arriving at the end of March, so he should come over as well."

Lu Jintang said: "Contact him and ask him to come over first. The things that come later are more urgent."

Master Qin knocked on the door and said, "Sir, the title deed is ready."

Tang Jiahang said: "Send it in."

Master Qin presented the deed to Lu Jintang and said, "Thirteenth Master, the deed is ready."

Lu Jintang took the deed and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Master Qin."

Master Qin smiled and said, "It's not hard. I'll be out now."

Seeing that things were almost done, Lu Jintang stood up and said, "Okay, we'll be leaving. Please take care of the rest. The village is about to start planting rice seedlings."

Tang Jiahang waved his hand. Lu Jintang took Yang Mingxi and asked Tang Jiahang for a mule cart. They drove around the county town and bought everything they needed for the stall tomorrow. During this time, Yang Mingxi went to Mingyang Medical Clinic. The medicine boy there said that Wang Mingyang had been away for almost two months and had not returned. Helplessly, the two of them had no choice but to return to Changshan Village.

The Yang family of Changshan Village was bustling with activity, preparing a meal. Almost everyone in the village, young and old, had come to the fifth branch of the Yang family, happily sitting together, drinking and eating meat.

Yang Mingxi and Lu Jintang looked at each other, and then they quietly came to the fifth room of the Yang family, where they happened to meet Wu. They followed Wu out, sat down separately and started to eat.

After dinner, Yang Mingxi greeted a few of her cousins and told them about setting up a stall tomorrow. Since they were short on ingredients, they would focus on fried potatoes, cold noodles, fried chicken, and cold skewers. They would also order as much as they could.

Pea flour and guazhua noodles were simple, so they were given to Aunt Yang Liu. Noodles were given to Uncle Yang Liu. Rice noodles were given to Yang Laoqi and his wife. Yang Mingxi wanted to take care of Yang Laoqi and his family.

Everyone in the Yang family participated and was having a lot of fun.

The next day, Yang Mingxi was ready and took her cousins to set up a stall in the open space at the city gate.
