Afterwards, the village chief and the villagers had a lively discussion and finally reached a firm consensus: "Let's grow medicinal herbs."
Yan Wanwan looked at them with a smile and confirmed, "Are you sure?"
"determine."
"Butler, bring me the termination document."
The village chief panicked and tried to persuade her: "Ms. Yan, there's no need to go through so much trouble with the paperwork, right?"
"We signed the agreement back then. How can I dare to start the next phase of cooperation with you if you don't terminate the agreement?"
The villagers also pulled the village chief aside and whispered to him, "Village chief, please agree! You can earn more by growing medicinal herbs."
The village chief was upset and had a headache after hearing what everyone said. His initial idea was to get the seeds first and then let the villagers continue to plant them on the barren hills, wanting to have both. Finally, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.
The two parties quickly signed a termination document, and Yan Wanwan terminated the previous agreement with all the villagers.
She held the document and ordered with satisfaction: "Housekeeper, go get the atlas and let them select the herbs."
The housekeeper took the order and left. He quickly fetched a book of atlases and flipped directly to the last few pages. He said, "These are the only few medicinal herb seeds left. Which one would you like to plant?"
"No, we said before, we want the front ones, not these."
The housekeeper said in a firm tone: "As usual, I told you that these are all that are left. If you want to plant, plant them. If you don't want to plant, please go back."
He had been so nice to them before because he thought his young lady was taking special care of them, but he didn't expect that was not the case at all. Naturally, he would not be polite.
The village chief looked at Yan Wanwan for help: "Ms. Yan, can you help us get some other medicinal herb seeds? The growth cycle of these seeds is too long."
Yan Wanwan shook her head helplessly. "I'm so sorry, but these seeds only produce once a year and are now all used up. If you want more, you'll have to wait until next year. How about you come back next year?"
The villagers dared to act rudely towards the housekeeper, but they didn't dare to act rashly towards Yan Wanwan. They said honestly, "Ah! Miss Yan, you didn't explain it clearly before! Then let's go back to the barren mountain and plant trees."
Yan Wanwan was amused by their ever-changing attitude: "We have already signed the contract. Even if you want to go back on your word now, you can't, because I already have a new partner."
"There's no way to recruit people around here right now, and you don't have enough manpower in your village. If you don't use us, who else can you use?"
"Don't worry about that, Village Chief. If you have nothing else, please go back."
After saying that, Yan Wanwan left without looking back.
She was not the kind of nice person who was easy to talk to and did not bear grudges. She was just new here and did not want to bother too much with the unruly people in this remote area.
If they could just go and plant crops on the barren hills honestly, the old account of threatening her with the road issue could be written off. But these people are so greedy. Do they really think she will be afraid of them?
If they were not involved in the herbal medicine planting, they should have known that they were holding a grudge, but they still insisted on challenging their limits. No one in the village could understand the situation.
Unexpectedly, the villagers continued to make trouble, "Ms. Yan, you can't do this!"
Suddenly, a figure blocked their way. Qin Yu looked at them warningly, "What are you going to do?"
"Who are you? Get out of here."
The housekeeper shouted angrily, "How dare you! This is General Qin Yu, you must not be rude!"
"Yan Wanwan is my wife. If this happens again, don't blame me for being rude."
Frightened by Qin Yu's aura, the villagers showed fear on their faces and took several steps back.
At this moment, no one dared to act recklessly and they all dispersed in disgrace.
They didn't know that because of their greed, they missed the opportunity to make a fortune. Years later, as they watched the nearby villages become prosperous one by one, they regretted it and beat their chests, but they could not change the village's decline.
When Qin Yu found Yan Wanwan, she discovered that there were some ragged people standing in front of Yan Wanwan, including the elderly, children, and middle-aged men. These were the people she had found to cultivate the barren mountain.
"When did you invite someone?"
"The first moment I knew they were causing trouble."
Qin Yu looked at her thoughtfully. How did this person know what happened in the village? He was puzzled.
“Did these people also sign the documents?”
He could see that Yan Wanwan was obsessed with documents. After all, they were the only things recognized by the government.
"No, a bought servant."
Yan Wanwan smiled contentedly. Initially, her thinking was limited. After all, this was ancient times, when there was a custom of buying and selling convicted slaves. Those bought from the slave trade had signed indentures, making them much more reliable than ordinary hired laborers.
So, when she saw the villagers making trouble because of those things, she immediately went to the slave trade and carefully selected a group of criminal slaves. She knew in her heart that if these people dared to rebel, she would sell them directly to intimidate them and make them obedient.
Qin Yu frowned slightly. "Although buying convict slaves can solve the problem temporarily, it will also require more effort to manage them in the future. They have special status, so it is inevitable that they will have special thoughts."
Yan Wanwan, however, didn't take it seriously and gently waved her hand. "How difficult is that? I will set strict rules, clearly distinguishing rewards and punishments, so that they know the pros and cons. Moreover, I will give them enough benefits. As long as they work loyally, they will have a good life."
Qin Yu looked at her confident appearance and thought to himself that this woman was decisive and thoughtful, very different from ordinary women.
"Then how do you plan to arrange for them to work in the village?"
Yan Wanwan thought for a moment and said, "I've already thought of it. I'll have them take charge of farming, weaving, and repairs, among other things. I'll assign tasks based on their abilities. Those who perform well will not only be exempted from labor service, but will also receive some monetary rewards. This way, they'll definitely work hard."
Qin Yu nodded and had to admit that her arrangement was quite reasonable.
"But aren't you afraid that they might secretly collude and cause more trouble?"
A fierce look flashed in Yan Wanwan's eyes. "If such a thing happens, I will never let them off easily. I will make them regret it."
Qin Yu was shocked by her aura and was speechless for a moment. He knew very well that Yan Wanwan was not just talking, she must have enough means to deal with everything.
After the matter was settled, she turned to look at Qin Yu with great interest, "Let's go back home!"
Qin Yu was slightly stunned, and ripples appeared in her heart. She smiled dotingly and said, "Okay, let's go back home."
That night, Yan Wanwan was in a good mood looking at a box of hidden weapons, while Qin Yu quietly found Ling Ying.
"General, what's going on?"
"Do you know how to make a woman happy?"
Ling Ying patted his chest and said, "It's not difficult at all. Just buy them the accessories they like."
Qin Yu thought about Yan Wanwan's expression when she saw the hidden weapon, "What if she doesn't like jewelry?"
"Then cater to her preferences, and you'll always be able to win her heart."
Qin Yu nodded in agreement, but Ling Ying came over curiously and asked, "General, who are you trying to cheer up? Does the Madam know?"
Qin Yu was about to deny it when a voice that made him panic came from behind.
"Yes! Who is the General trying to cheer up?"
When I turned around, I saw Yan Wanwan teasing with a smile, and there was no jealousy on her face.
Qin Yu: "No, I..."
"Forget it, you don't have to say anything, but consider that box of things as my apology!"
After saying that, she left happily, cheering in her heart: I made a profit, the treasures in the box are all mine, thank you to the woman Qin Yu wanted to please.
Qin Yu: "..."
Those were originally what he used to coax Yan Wanwan!
