Farming and reading family

He felt that He County might become a place of right and wrong, and those involved in it would either rise to prominence or be reduced to dust.

These have nothing to do with him. If he forces it, he will probably die without a burial place.

Gao E didn't care about these things. She wanted to wait and see. As long as she could guard her own territory, she would be able to defeat anyone who came with one blow.

That day, Gao E was leading people to collect chili peppers. She thought that Lei and Wu would definitely not be able to use up all of them, so she would make chili oil, which would be delicious no matter what you eat it with.

Gao E plans to be busy over the next two years, planting economic tree species around the slopes and on both sides of the road, such as chestnuts, walnuts, and jujube trees, to increase the variety of food and store it at home as grain.

Since this is the case, we need to put finding tree species on the agenda and discuss it with Xiao Chuyun when he comes back.

While she was thinking about this, Jin Ruyi called her from the ground.

Gao E told the villagers to continue picking and walked towards Jin Ruyi: "Why are you here?"

"My father has returned with the craftsmen." Jin Ruyi looked at Gao E wearing an apron and asked, "Why are you still working in the fields?"

"Let's take a look." Gao E stamped the dirt on her feet. "Where have the people been settled?"

"I brought them all." Jin Ruyi said directly.

Gao E was stunned for a moment: "Those are all masters. Would they be willing to stay after seeing this place?"

She thought Jin Ruyi would be arranged to live in Hexian's courtyard first.

"There must be no problem with the people my father found." Jin Ruyi assured.

Gao E was skeptical, not because she wanted Jin Ruyi to lie to her, but because sometimes even Jin Ruyi didn't know the truth.

When Gao E returned home, she saw more than a dozen people sitting in the yard, and Tian and He were adding water for them.

"Boss." Jin Gusheng immediately stood up and saluted when he saw Gao E coming back.

"Uncle Jin, you are so polite." Gao E hurriedly returned the greeting.

"There is a difference between master and servant." Jin Gusheng said seriously.

Naturally, he didn't want to be a servant, but as long as the Jin family didn't overturn the verdict, they would always be slaves, and it was a blessing to follow a good boss.

Gao E did not force it. She looked around at the people in the yard. Although they were all craftsmen, they were dressed neatly and even more elegantly than Gao E.

Those people also pretended to look at Gao E casually. After all, they would follow Gao E to work in the future, and some people couldn't help feeling disappointed.

They came for Jin Gusheng's sake, and Jin Gusheng also told them the details of the situation. They thought Jin Gusheng was low-key, but they didn't expect it to be true.

"Has Uncle Jin explained the situation here to them all?" Gao E saw disappointment in some people's eyes.

"I've made it clear." Jin Gusheng also knew that some people were disappointed. "But there are still some discrepancies when they actually see it. If the boss offers good conditions, I will take them to see it. If they really don't want to stay here, please give them money to send them away."

Gao E nodded: "Just follow Uncle Jin's advice."

When everyone heard Gao E say this, they felt a little relieved. She was quite magnanimous.

Jin Gusheng knew all of these people well, so it was easy to discuss things with them.

Gao E offered them a salary based on a base salary plus commission, but she also told them that if they got up early, they might not get any commission.

They are temporarily living in He County, and they can decide where they want to live after the houses are built.

Everyone was very satisfied with the conditions. All that was left was to go to Yaoshang and Guikui Mountain to take a look.

"It's almost autumn, why haven't Mr. Du and the others come back yet?" Jin Ruyi asked worriedly.

"Mr. Du has written back and will definitely be back before Double Ninth Festival," Gao E explained.

"Where is your husband?" Jin Ruyi looked at Gao E.

"This is his home. Where else can he go if he doesn't come back?" Gao E said with a smile.

Jin Ruyi did not expose the truth. Du Weiqing knew that he had written two letters back. It was hard not to suspect anything about Chen Keyi's departure.

"Actually..." Gao E knew what Jin Ruyi meant. "As long as there's someone like this, it doesn't matter where he is."

Jin Ruyi laughed when she heard Gao E say this: "I think too much."

The two chatted about Chen Tao's property again, and it was almost time for Chen Tao to go back and look at the account books.

Chen Tao has changed a lot during this period. Before, I had no idea how many industries his family had, but now he can understand the profits, but he is not very good at calculating.

Another thing is that he has grown a lot taller, and when standing in front of the Chen family's servants, he looks a bit like the head of the family.

"By the way, Gong Zhinian sold all his properties and left He County." Jin Ruyi said suddenly.

"Ah?" Gao E thought Gong Zhinian would do something else.

"Well, when I left, I hosted a banquet for the outsiders from He County in Yueyuan, and I even went to toast them." Jin Ruyi knew that Gong Zhinian had poached Gao E's long-term worker before.

"If he hadn't made such trouble, relying on the properties he bought at low prices during the flood, he would have become a wealthy man in the county in a few years." Jin Ruyi felt regretful.

"Human greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant." Gao E also thought so.

If you think about it carefully, there are not many outsiders left who came at that time, and they are all peacefully running their own businesses.

After chatting for a while, Jin Gusheng finished his discussion and returned to Hui County with Jin Ruyi.

Gao E watched them leave. She did not tell Jin Ruyi about the Ghost Crying Mountain.

Now that the stonemason has just arrived, Ghost Mountain may not be able to be defended. It feels like fate is playing tricks on us.

However, Gao E did not give up. The Tao family's reach was so long, what if they were powerless?

Two days later, Liang Jiange and the others came back, but Wang Bin did not come with them. Both of them looked a little haggard.

Xiao Chuyun came to report to Gao E about going out.

"Why did you go out for so long?" Gao E asked directly.

"Mr. Wang was bitten by a snake and was injured. They came back after resting well." Xiao Chuyun said solemnly, "I think Mr. Wang is not a simple person."

"Why?" Gao E asked curiously.

"His servants carry excellent medicine for wounds and detoxification pills with them." Xiao Chuyun said directly.

It is normal to bring medicine when you go out, but what kind of medicine you bring depends on your status.

"Look at Mr. Wang's clothes and his entourage, and you'll know he's either wealthy or noble," Gao E said with a smile. "And he's close friends with the eldest son of the Mo family. The Mo family is quite prestigious."

Xiao Chuyun wanted to say that he didn't mean that, but the boss was right, so he nodded.

"How about Mr. Wang?" If Gao E wanted to do something bad, Liang Jiange would probably be implicated.

Liang Jiange is now Lu Qingluo's apprentice, and Lu Qingluo is also a protective person.

"Much better." Xiao Chuyun was uncertain. "He lives in Yueyuan."

Gao E felt relieved when she heard that they were living in Yueyuan. With Jin Ruyi there, nothing should happen.

After talking about these, Gao E and Xiao Chuyun talked about planting economic tree species. Xiao Chuyun thought it was a good idea and agreed to it.

As soon as Xiao Chuyun left, Liang Jiange came up. He had changed his clothes, but his face looked much darker.

"Where is my master?" Liang Jiange now called him master so naturally.
