The whole family travels through time and space, and the three of them struggle together

This time, Master Chen was certain that he had heard correctly.

"No, what are you going to plant when you buy the mountain?"

"I haven't thought about it yet. I was just about to discuss it with Xiuying. I just mentioned it and you guys came in."

Chen Mingyuan stood aside, looking expectant. "Dig a fish pond at the foot of the mountain and connect it to the Hetao River. Then we can not only sell fish but also eat them at home." After saying that, he swallowed his saliva. He was craving for pickled fish.

Zhou Dajiang: "That's a good idea. I also plan to plant fruit trees on the mountain. Now that we have a fish pond, it will be convenient to water them."

Master Chen continued, "If we plant lotus roots in the fish pond, we can enjoy the scenery in the summer."

Well, it emerges from the mud without being stained, and washes itself in the green lotus without being evil.

Chen Xiuying nodded and said, "Lotus roots not only have flowers, but we can also harvest them in autumn, which is also good." Then she can make lotus root stewed with pork ribs and lotus root with honey glutinous rice, which the children will surely love.

Xu Wu also said: "I know a veteran who is good at beekeeping. Raising bees in the mountains is also very good."

Chen Xiuying: "Beekeeping is great! This way we can have honey at home."

She can also make a lot of honey-related snacks, such as honey hemp flowers, honey cakes, honey chicken legs, honey yams, etc. More importantly, with bees, fruit trees no longer need artificial pollination.

Zhou Dajiang scratched his head. "Apart from these, are there any other options? I'm worried there won't be enough saplings."

Chen Xiuying thought for a moment and said, "We can also grow herbs. In our climate, we can grow herbs like fangfeng, licorice, Panax notoginseng, aster, and scutellaria. I don't know how to grow them, but I'll ask my master and senior brothers later."

Zhou Dajiang's eyes lit up. "That's great! Based on the properties of herbs, we can use every last bit. Besides, we don't have to worry about where to sell them. Besides your eldest brother's military camp, our brother-in-law's pharmacy can also sell them."

Zhou Dajiang has even thought of the sales channels.

Zhou Sisi added, "Whether it's trees or herbs, plants all love sunlight. Now that the sunny side of the mountain is taken care of, the shady side can't be left empty, right?"

Chen Xiuying: "Then raise chickens and pigs!" In modern times, those free-range chickens and free-range pigs are very expensive.

After thinking for a while, he added, "Besides, the manure from chickens and pigs can be used to fertilize the soil and serve as topdressing for fruit trees." The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

This is really the case that one person's plan is short, two people's plan is long, and three people are better than Zhuge Liang. The problem was solved after a few people discussed it.

After discussing what to plant, Zhou Dajiang thought of a key issue, "Everything we are talking about requires investment, and I have almost spent all my family's money." His voice became smaller and smaller, and it was almost inaudible at the end.

At this time, Zhou Sisi smiled, "If you have spent all your money, don't you still have me? Besides, I will pay you every month, and I can lend it to you."

When Zhou Dajiang heard this, he said, "That's great. Then my parents are relying on you."

Zhou Sisi replied, "It's not free, you have to pay me 10% interest at the end of the year." Isn't this much better than buying a shop? She can still see it.

Zhou Dajiang gritted his teeth and said, "This little girl only knows how to plot against your parents."

Chen Xiuying made the decision and said, "Okay! I'll give you 10%." Anyway, the child doesn't spend money recklessly, so 10% is 10%.

Chen's father and son, Xu Wu and the other two looked at each other in surprise. Not only did they divide the money, but they could also calculate it like this!

Now that the funding issue has been resolved, the next issue is employment.

With such a big mountain, there won’t be enough manpower to come and go.

Zhou Dajiang and his family of three are newcomers here and have little experience with population management. They would like to hear what everyone has to say first.

Xu Wu said, "I'll write to the old soldier and ask if he can move here with his family. If he can, we'll have people to take care of the bees, chickens, and pigs."

Chen Mingyuan said, "What are you waiting for? I'll write it for you right now," and then the two of them went to Xu Wu's room with paper and pen.

Master Chen was left alone, ignorant of worldly matters and unable to offer any assistance, so he said, "Da Jiang, go call your mother and your mother-in-law, and we'll discuss this together."

When Zhou Dajiang heard this, he thought, "That's right, how could I have forgotten about my mother? She must have a way to deal with this!"

So I quickly called my mother and mother-in-law over.

When Zhou's mother heard that her second son had quietly made a big fortune, she couldn't help but look at him with a higher opinion. This guy has become more successful than before and even knows how to buy a mountain.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Village Chief Zhang has a hundred acres of land. He either rents it out or hires a farmhand. Your land hasn't been cultivated yet, so it's impossible to rent it out. But you can hire a farmhand. You can first ask the village chief how to hire a farmhand and how to calculate the wages.

Normally, we hire two permanent workers, and when it's busy, we hire a few more temporary workers, and we can get the work done."

Mother Chen pondered for a moment and said, "You guys have to plant trees and farm, dig fish ponds, grow herbs, and raise livestock. Dajiang has to go to school and will go to the provincial capital next year. Xiuying can't handle it all by herself. It would be best if you could find someone else to help you."

Zhou Dajiang looked at his wife. Indeed, he had to go to the provincial capital to study next year, and his wife would definitely be too busy to handle it.

He looked at Chen Xiuying and said, "How about we just listen to our mother and buy someone?"

Chen Xiuying also swallowed her saliva and said, "Well, I'll listen to my mother."

Buying people is illegal in modern times. As a law-abiding citizen, even though it is ancient times now, I still feel a little uneasy about this matter.

Mother Chen: "Okay, leave it to me. Dajiang, when are you going to the capital? It's time for our baby to be delivered."

Zhou Dajiang, who was urged twice in one day, quickly replied, "Tomorrow, we'll go tomorrow!"

The mountain has been purchased, and it is time to prepare the saplings, seeds, and other supplies. Although a batch was bought before the New Year, the slopes in front of the farmers are not enough, and the mountains are even worse.

Zhou Sisi ran out quickly and returned soon with banknotes, a new album, and a letter. She said, "Dad, here's the money for you, six hundred taels. If it's not enough, take this month's pay and tell me the amount later. I've also got a new album, take that with you."

And this letter, please help me pass it to Cheng Yunxiang."

At this time, Xu Wu and Chen Mingyuan also came back. Xu Wu also handed him a letter and a few coins, and said in a cold voice, "There is also mine. Just take it to the Luyuan Escort Agency in the prefectural capital."

Zhou Dajiang held the money in one hand and the letter in the other. Well, I became a courier.

The next day, the four of them, including Xu Wu's family, went their separate ways.

Zhou Sisi and Xu Wu went to school.

Chen Xiuying got up early in the morning, prepared some food, and went to her master's house in the neighboring village with her bag.

Zhou Dajiang went to the factory to call Zhou Dahe and asked him to go home and bring some clothes. He then asked Xue Jin to find someone to install the wire rings. Then he went to his mother's workshop and loaded the dolls onto the cart. Together with Chen's mother, the three of them drove the ox cart towards the provincial capital.

Zhou Dahe couldn't hide his excitement along the way. He looked around, and when there was no one around, he howled towards the mountain, leaving Chen's mother speechless. There was a huge difference between Dahe and her son-in-law. The latter was too lively.

Zhou Dajiang was speechless. You are so excited just by going to the provincial capital. If I take you to the capital tomorrow, you will be so excited!
