The female general of the last days returned to ancient times to raise a young prostitute
Chapter 184 Chance Encounter
Mo Rao didn't feel too disappointed when the escorts said they didn't know him. It wasn't surprising that they didn't know him.
However, the bodyguards travel all over the country and know many people, so you never know, someone might know him.
Things like this are very common in tropical regions, and as long as there is someone who knows about them, there is no need to worry about not being able to get them. Therefore, hiring a bodyguard is the most suitable choice for this matter.
Mo Rao smiled and said, "It's like this. This tree grows in a place that is hot all year round. I wonder if any of you masters have been there, or have come into contact with people from this place. If so, please help me find out. I am willing to pay a large sum for such trees, five taels per tree, up to a maximum of one thousand, and I will take as many as I can."
Mo Rao continued, "The sap from this tree is white. If possible, I'll collect any tree, big or small. I want one with a soil ball at the root, so it's easier to plant."
When the escorts heard this, they realized the upper limit was one thousand trees, and at five taels a tree, that was five thousand taels of silver. What tree could be worth five taels a tree? Wouldn't that be like giving them money? Five thousand taels, that was money they naturally wanted to earn.
One of the escorts said, "Could you please tell us in detail about the growing conditions of this tree? That way it will be easier for us to find it."
After hearing this, Mo Rao smiled and said, "Of course. This kind of tree likes warmth, so we can keep looking south. If you know anyone overseas, you can ask them. Who knows? There might be trees like this overseas."
People from overseas are foreigners. With this news, the escorts had a direction.
Foreign ships often dock at Wuzhou Wharf.
So they could try to find out. If it really existed, they would have earned the money without any problems. It would just be a matter of asking a few more questions. They were escorting goods and the dock was a place they often went to, so they were naturally happy to do so. Therefore, the escorts immediately agreed to do this.
Mo Rao offered twenty taels as a deposit. Although it wasn't much, the escorts were still beaming. After all, the deal wasn't even close, and if they finally got word that the employer had changed their mind, it wasn't impossible. It was a bit of a hassle, but running back and forth was just a waste of time.
With these twenty taels, they felt much more at ease. If they heard that the employer changed his mind, they would not refund the deposit.
The leading escort also repeated these words to Mo Rao.
Master, don't worry, as long as it is what I want in the picture, I will definitely take it.
If you masters don't find out the news in the end, this twenty taels will be considered as my treat for tea.
The leading escort was very pleased with Mo Rao's words. He didn't expect that this girl spoke so openly and was a very insightful woman.
After everyone had an agreement, Mo Rao gave the escorts a copy of the mineral atlas in his hand. If possible, please help me pay attention to the stones in the atlas. If you find any, I will reward you handsomely and will never let you suffer any loss.
The escorts looked at the stones in the album. Each stone was drawn vividly, and some of its characteristics were described in great detail.
The leading escort said generously, "Okay, I'll take this album. If we find the stone in the picture, we will definitely bring it back for the girl."
"Thank you very much, masters. If I can really find this kind of stone, I will definitely pay for it and won't let you come here in vain." Mo Rao said politely.
Although the search for minerals has already attracted people's attention, it is better to have more people searching.
"Okay, then we'll set off first, young lady." The leading escort said politely.
The Mo family and their group only stopped after they sent the escorts to the village entrance.
In the days that followed, Li Lingye often disappeared, and Mo Rao was very busy, so she didn't care about Li Lingye's whereabouts.
However, there are often girls hanging around the Mo family’s door.
Those who come here are all unmarried girls. It goes without saying that they just want to meet the young man Li Lingye by chance.
But the reality is not so good, the expected encounter never happened, mainly because the protagonist is like a dragon that can only be seen from head to tail. It is difficult to run into him.
Not to mention that these girls would not meet him by chance, even she, the real person, would not meet Li Lingye, a busy man.
When Mo Xiaoqiao got married, the man's family did not come to pick up the bride with any fanfare. Instead, they just used a big red sedan to take her away.
Even though Mo Xiaoqiao was extremely reluctant to have such a shabby wedding ceremony, she had no choice but to get into the bridal sedan while wiping away her tears.
The main reason was that the man's family had also heard about what happened to Mo Ertai and wanted to cancel the engagement, but they thought about the money they had paid for the engagement. If they canceled the engagement, the money would definitely be wasted, so they could only reluctantly take the woman back.
But the new bride was not welcomed by her husband's family before she even entered the house. It was obvious that her life in the future would not be easy.
As the days passed, Mo Lianhua was tactful and didn't come to cause trouble, so her life was quite fulfilling.
The Chinese New Year is just around the corner and we have to start buying New Year’s goods. The town is also bustling with people on the streets as the Spring Festival is approaching.
Most of the work in the mountains has been done, and we are just waiting for spring to start working again.
The valley is surrounded by tree stumps, so when working in the valley in spring, there is no need to worry about wild animals appearing.
Everyone can see this, so these people are not afraid to go into the mountains to work in the spring.
Mo Rao was not afraid of paying them wages. They did not come to work in the spring. After all, the preliminary work had been almost done and they were just waiting for the project to be completed so that they could get a red envelope.
If you don't come to work in the spring, that would be truly insane, right?
That day, Mo Rao bought two pigs from the village and some rice and flour in town...
Li Tongsheng is in charge of everyone's wages, so everyone lines up in turn to receive their wages.
The whole process was orderly and there was no chaos at all.
In addition to receiving silver and money, everyone also received two pounds of pork, five pounds of flour, and five pounds of rice.
This made everyone ecstatic. They were originally a poor family. Now that they had meat, rice and flour, they naturally wanted to take them home to feed their elderly and children.
Some men in the crowd were so excited that they were weeping. They were poor people who hadn't had enough to eat just a few months ago, but now they could afford to eat meat. How could they not be excited?
Even the aunt who helped cook for the Mo family received one. This holiday gift was really enviable. The chefs and waiters working in the restaurant also received one. The main theme of the New Year was joy.
The reason why Mo Rao was so generous was because of the dividends sent by the emperor, a thick stack of silver notes, totaling 30,000 taels.
Mo Rao was so happy that she gave everyone holiday gifts.
Milk tea shops and restaurants also started closing two days in advance.
The business of Xiangyun Restaurant was slow only for a while after the incident. After that, the business was relatively stable due to Eleven's careful management, so there were still quite a few red envelopes during the New Year.
Man, the chef looked as happy as if he had won the lottery when he received the generous red envelope.
The two maids who were guarding the door were bought by the Mo family. They volunteered to stay in the store to look after it.
Mo Rao naturally would not treat them unfairly. She gave double the New Year's red envelopes to the two maids.
Mo Erya, and Eleven and his group also came back in a carriage. The carriage was bought by Eleven at the horse shop. After all, it would be inconvenient for a restaurant to be without a carriage, so when Eleven took over the Fucheng Restaurant, he bought a carriage as soon as possible.
The restaurant left two maids to guard the door, and at Mo Rao's suggestion, Eleven also gave the two maids red envelopes for the New Year.
Zhang Lin and his siblings still planned to return to Zhangjia Village to celebrate the festival. After all, that was their home, and Mo Rao had no objection.
After all, it is natural for them to want to go home.
Mo Rao gave Zhang Lin a large red envelope of five taels, and also gave the three siblings a portion of holiday gifts, along with some candies and snacks. Old Lady Mo also gave the siblings a lot of gifts.
Zhang Lin and his two siblings ate well at the Mo family and grew a lot taller, especially Zhang Lin, who looked much stronger.
So Zhang Lanlan was not afraid that her younger brothers and sisters would be bullied when they returned. Because of Zhang Lin's strong physique, the villagers had to take him into consideration.
