Traveling through time as a peasant girl to turn things around

Chapter 686 The Demon Lord in Peach Blossom Village

The Demon Lord had nothing to do, so he came out to take a look. Seeing a car full of children, the Demon Lord got in the car and said, "Let's go, little brothers. Big brother will take you to the county to play." Jia Jia: "Okay, let's go and see our shop." Huang Bao also ran out to play. All the children squeezed into the car. The Demon Lord said: "Sit tight! Let's go!" The car turned around in front of the Chai family's door and drove out. The old people in the village watched, and some saw their own children sitting in the car, and said happily, "Have fun, buy whatever you want to eat, don't be afraid of spending money!" "Thank you, Grandpa!"

The Demon Lord said, "Put your hands in, but don't let your head and hands show! Xiaochen, help close the window!"

The Demon Lord drove fast and soon arrived at the county. The Demon Lord smiled and said, "Play for an hour, then come back here and get on the car to go home!" "Okay!" The children went to play with laughter.

Huang Bao: "Brother-in-law, I'll take you to see our shop!" Mo Zun: "Okay." He took the key and closed the car door. "Brother-in-law, the parking spot is good. This is the county government office. No one dares to come here to make trouble." Huang Bao said to the yamen runner, "Brother yamen runner, please help watch the car. My mother is Guoguo!" When the yamen runner heard Guoguo, he said, "Okay, sure. Is your mother back?" "Well, when I have time, let my mother come to see you and listen to her. You are all old friends!" Yamen runner: "Yes, we have known each other for thirty years. Your mother has been selling vegetables and fruits here since she was very young. I have eaten a lot of them!" Huang Bao smiled and said, "Thank you, brother. We will be back soon!" Yamen runner: "Okay, you can go without worry!"

Huang Bao took Mo Zun to his own shop to check. The first one was for daily necessities. When they walked to the door, Huang Bao said, "There are quite a few people here!" "Yeah, not bad." "That's right."

The shopkeeper inside saw Huangbao, ran out and said, "Young master, you're back!" "Yes, I came back to see you." "Please come in and sit down! We should show you the account book. The master hasn't been back for a long time." Huangbao laughed and said, "I won't look at it. My second uncle can look at it." "Okay, come in and sit down. See how good our shop business is!" Huangbao: "Yes, good. Don't worry about me while you are busy. I'll take my brother-in-law to check it out and leave. It won't affect you, uncle!" The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's okay! Wife will serve tea for the young master." "Yes, husband." A middle-aged woman came out to lead the way for Huangbao and the others. Huang Bao had no choice but to say, "Okay. Hello, Auntie. This shop is quite large. How many people usually look after it?" The middle-aged woman replied, "There are four of us. My husband is a wounded veteran, and there's another man who came here with my husband. He and his wife are out hauling goods and will be back soon. My husband and I are just keeping an eye on it for a while, but it's okay." "Oh, four of us usually?" "Yes. Someone has to go back and haul the goods! We can't keep it together with too few people!" "Indeed, how much do you pay a month?" The woman smiled and said, "The new owner is the second son, and most of the money comes from our own family. My husband and I are currently making four taels of silver a month!" "This shop isn't big, and four people only make eight taels of silver a month. How can we make that much?" Huang Bao thought business was not good. The woman smiled and said, "Business is good! It's a bit busy, but I'm happy to make money and I'm not afraid of getting tired. You guys sit here and I'll go help out in the front!" "Go ahead."

Demon Lord: "It doesn't look like there's much in the shop?" Huang Bao: "Yeah, I don't see much either, I'm skeptical." Huang Bao and Demon Lord exchanged a glance, and Huang Bao produced a few electronic eyes and handed them to Demon Lord. Demon Lord chuckled and dodged, quickly returning! "Let's go!" Huang Bao: Okay. "Uncle and aunt, we're leaving!" The shopkeeper: "Okay." He escorted the two of them out. Huang Bao waved and went to check on his family's other shops: the barbecue shop, the clothing store, the food store, the hotel. These were all crowded, far more than the first one. Huang Bao stopped asking questions and checked on his own. Each shop had several electronic eyes installed. Pinhole-sized, they were impossible to detect, and besides, they didn't even know what they were. Haha.

Huang Bao knew everything overnight. There was nothing wrong with the shop, and the owner's character was fine. It was just that the supply was low, and there weren't many things. After paying the wages, there wasn't much left. Jiaxing had made do with what he could to keep them employed and support their family. When his own income was low, he stopped asking for money. The owner would send him money every month, and Jiaxing wouldn't tell him how much.

Even if he loses money, he still has to pay wages. He still has plenty of shops and can afford it. They are all former veterans! That night, Guoguo, Jiaxing and others were all there. Guoguo felt very guilty, "Oh, it's my fault. In the future, I will try my best to send back daily necessities. In the beginning, I also sold daily necessities, vegetables and grains. Now our whole county has no shortage of these - it's okay. I will go to deliver the goods tomorrow. I will bring back a lot this time!

If it doesn't work out, I'll try something else." Jiaxing: "Yes."

The next day, a truck was delivering goods, and it was driven by Demon Lord again. The truck was full of goods. Guoguo said: "I'll go there."

When the shopkeeper saw Guoguo, tears welled up in his eyes. "Uncle, it's all Guoguo's fault. I forgot to come back to see you more often!" The shopkeeper said, "Don't blame you. We're doing well thanks to you!" Guoguo smiled and said, "Uncle, ask your people to help unload the truck and sell this batch of goods. We'll see how to make money. You are doing it. It's my fault for making you sad." He just let go of everything. The shopkeeper said, "Don't blame you." Guoguo said with a smile, "Uncle, we have been a family for a long time. Let's not talk about this. I have something to talk to you about later. Let's have a meeting to discuss the future direction. I will help you make a lot of money!" The shopkeeper listened, "Okay, okay! - Wife. Niu Wa has gone out to unload the goods! There is work!" "Yes, big brother." The Demon Lord quietly took away the electronic eye. Guoguo went to the warehouse, but there was nothing!

Packages and boxes of supplies were delivered. "Close the shop and reopen it later." The shopkeeper said, "Okay. I'll go hang up the sign and close the shop!"

A large truck of supplies was unloaded into the warehouse, filling up two rooms. Guoguo began to unpack and tell everyone what the original price of each item was and how much it would be sold for in the future, and wrote it down in a notebook. They were all cloth, underwear, and daily necessities. "We sell less vegetables, as everyone has them. We still need to sell grain, as we're afraid that someone might not be able to make ends meet and not let anyone starve." Guoguo went out and opened the box under the truck and put a lot of grain in it. He turned around and came back and said, "Move all the grain in." Huangbao took people out, and Mozun helped move the goods. The shopkeeper: "There's more underneath!" "Yes, Grandpa! If you have any problems in the future, just talk to your family, don't worry about it yourself." The shopkeeper: "Okay, I got it."

Huang Bao: "Grandpa, don't you have a son or daughter?" The shopkeeper: "Yes, I have a son and a daughter. My daughter is married. My son was recruited this time, so I sent him to the army to defend our country. There's nothing much to do at home. His mother and I can take care of the work in the shop and in the fields."

"Oh, I see. What's his name? I once led a group of new recruits! See if I know him?" The shopkeeper said, "Ah, his name is Ma Xiaobao. He's 24 years old." Huang Bao thought for a moment, thinking that this group of new recruits might still be training in the camp outside the capital and hadn't yet seen the battlefield. Huang Bao said, "Grandpa Ma, this group of new recruits might still be in the camp outside the capital, participating in training. I heard there are two types of troops, the army and the navy. I'll help you check it out when we get back. There's also a group of new recruits stationed in the East China Sea. They're not fighting, they're safe, and they're just training them." The shopkeeper was delighted to hear that his son was still alive. He was so happy to know that he hadn't died. He had thought his son was long gone and that the child didn't know anything, even the two tricks he taught him wouldn't be enough. The shopkeeper had forgotten that the children of Taohua Village started learning martial arts from a young age, but they just lacked experience!

Huang Bao: "Grandpa, don't think too much. Have you forgotten that the children in our Taohua Village have been learning martial arts since childhood?" The shopkeeper laughed and forgot about it long ago, and his worries were no longer there. ...

In a short while, the work was done. Guoguo said, "Let's go to our hotel for a meeting. Lock the door and go together." The shopkeeper and the others were very happy and followed Guoguo out with a smile. Guoguo looked at the empty car. "Get in the car, let's go!" "Okay," The shopkeeper had never been in a car before! The Demon Lord laughed. The car was not driving fast because there were many people. But they soon arrived at the hotel. The decoration of the hotel they opened was similar to that of the one in Beijing. It was the best place to stay here. He called all the people from the shops. Sitting in the living room, the Demon Lord stood at the door and listened, hehe!

Guoguo said, "So many years have passed, and I've only been running the business without managing it. I'd like to say sorry and thank you all!" Guoguo stood up and bowed. After sitting down, he continued, "Life in Taohua County has improved, and some shops can't keep up with the trend! Those with good business will continue to operate, and those with bad business will close and do something else. We have no shortage of work, so we can't waste time. We have two daily necessities shops, and we will merge them into one and let the second one run it. Uncle Ma, I'm going to the southeast coast this time. You can come with me, bring your wife and the other two people in the shop. Let's go out and broaden our horizons, and then we'll talk about what to do with the shop in the future when we come back!" Shopkeeper Ma said happily, "Okay, let's go." Guoguo added, "If anyone else wants to go out and take a look, just sign up. We'll set off in two days and treat it as a trip!"

"Okay. Go. If you've never left the house in your life, it's worth it to go out and see the world." Guoguo continued, "You don't have to pay for food or other expenses. Just bring your own water bottle and a change of clothes. I'll take care of everything else. Consider it a benefit for everyone." "Okay, okay." Guoguo chuckled. "I won't say much. When you get back, just sign up with my uncle." "Okay. Great!" Guoguo took her son and the Demon Lord away. Anyone going home took the opportunity to get in the car with them. Haha.

In the car, Guoguo said, "Grandpa Ma has been here for thirty years, right?" The shopkeeper said, "Well, in a few months it will be exactly thirty years. This is the place where I have lived the longest. From now on, I will never leave here, and I will be buried here when I die!" "Well, I remember when you came, I was still a child and just learned to walk. In the blink of an eye, thirty years have passed. Time flies!" The Demon Lord was shocked when he thought that he was not young anymore and was almost fifty years old. Huangbao reminded him, "Concentrate on driving!" Demon Lord: Oh.

As soon as they said this, they arrived at the village. Shopkeeper Ma said, "Stop, let's get off!" Guoguo said, "Are we there yet?" Shopkeeper Ma said, "Yes, my home is just outside the village entrance, guarding the entrance!" "Okay. Stop the car!" Mo Zun stopped the car, and Guoguo sent them off. "See you later!" "Okay!"

Guoguo said proudly, "I didn't expect the buildings would extend this far! There are so many people!" The school playground was packed with people! The sound of talking and laughing merged into one. These past few days, many people had been eating here, enjoying the fun together.

I'm used to the bustle of the whole village, but now it's not easy. There are more people than just a few hundred before, now there are almost 2,000 people! Guoguo thinks that it's not easy for his uncle to be the village chief. Should he take people to the East China Sea?
