After traveling through time, I led the whole village to become rich!

In the end, Shopkeeper Qian didn't give Zhang Hulan up. Shopkeeper Qian invited Zhang Hulan to have lunch, but Zhang Hulan didn't stay, saying she had a lot of things to do and had to go back.

After leaving Yiweixuan, Zhang Hubing said gloomily, "If you think the silver is too much, you can give it to me. Fifteen taels..."

"What do you know?" Zhang Hulan rolled her eyes at Zhang Hubing, then took him to the market to buy pig heads and offal. She also bought some lamb chops and some more, planning to make steamed lamb chops and pearl meatballs for the children that evening.

Zhang Hubing's eyes lit up when he saw Zhang Hulan buying lamb chops, lean pork and glutinous rice. He would have something delicious to eat in the evening.

I bought two buns for each person on the roadside and hurried back.

Back home, the family got busy again. Wang and her family cleaned the pork and offal, while Zhang Hulan prepared dinner in the kitchen.

Zhang Xingyue stood next to Zhang Hulan, very close to them.

Zhang Hulan looked down at Zhang Xinyue and asked, "What's wrong, Yueyue?"

Zhang Xinyue shook her head, "Nothing!"

Zhang Hulan squatted down, touched Zhang Xinyue's face, and asked, "Yueyue, do you have something to say to your mother?"

Zhang Xinyue still shook her head, "No. I just want to be close to my mother."

Zhang Hulan looked at Zhang Xinyue's big, watery eyes. This girl was the one who was most attached to her. She must have been too busy recently and not at home most of the time, which made the little girl miss her.

Zhang Hulan asked in a low voice: "Do you miss your mother?"

Zhang Xinyue's mouth pursed, and her eyes turned red. The little girl hugged Zhang Hulan's legs and said, "Mom, when you go out again, can you take me with you?"

Ouch... This made Zhang Hulan very sad.

Holding Zhang Xinyue in her arms, Zhang Hulan comforted her softly, "Don't cry, Yueyue. Mom will spend more time with Yueyue in the future."

Zhang Hulan wondered if someone had bullied Zhang Xinyue. She held Zhang Xinyue's shoulders and asked, "Yueyue, did your brothers and sisters bully you?"

Zhang Xinyue shook her head, "My brothers and sisters didn't bully me, I just missed mom!"

Zhang Hulan helped Zhang Xinyue wipe away the tears from her eyes and said, "Then Mom, please try to get out of the fever in the future and stay at home with Yueyue."

Wang came in and saw Zhang Xinyue's red eyes. She asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhang Hulan smiled and said, "Yueyue missed me."

Wang was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "This girl is very close to you. Every time you go out, she will come to the door from time to time to check on you, and every once in a while ask when you will be back. No, take her with you when you go out again."

Zhang Hulan said, "It's inconvenient to carry around. It's exposed to the wind and sun, and sometimes even rain, which can easily damage your health."

Zhang Hulan thought for a moment, then said, "Forget it. I'll just hire more people. I'll stay home more often to accompany Yueyue and the others. Money is important, but Yueyue and the others are more important to me."

Zhang Hulan coaxed Zhang Xinyue for a while, and then Zhang Xinyue moved a small stool and sat beside her to watch Zhang Hulan cook.

At dinner that night, Zhang Hulan said to Zhang Hujun and Zhang Hubing, "Brother, you will be in charge of Manfulou from now on. Tomorrow, I will buy two more basins, two pots, and two cauldrons."

"Okay!" Zhang Hujun nodded in agreement.

"Hu Bing, Yi Weixuan, you are responsible for delivering goods and buying pig heads every day."

"Oh!" Zhang Hubing also nodded.

Zhang Hulan then said to Old Man Zhang, "Dad, I need to trouble you with something."

"What's going on?"

"Please help me find two people to build a shed next to the kitchen, and then build a stove. One stove at the back is too busy."

Old man Zhang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll find someone to fix it tomorrow."

Zhang Hulan then said, "Dad, I have to go to the Tan Family Restaurant in Yangshan County tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. But I don't plan to deliver the goods myself every day. I want to find someone to help me deliver the goods, collect the money, and buy things. Who do you think is suitable?"

Old Man Zhang wanted to say he would, but now he had to dig the fish pond and couldn't leave. So he asked, "Do you have a suitable candidate?"

"I have three candidates. One is Zhao Cheng, and the other two are Liu Yongquan and Liu Yonggui. Who do you think is suitable?"

Old Man Zhang said, "Let's go with Zhao Cheng. When it comes to money, the village head's character is impeccable, so Zhao Cheng is more trustworthy."

Zhang Hulan nodded. "I also think Zhao Cheng is more suitable. Then I'll go to the village head's house and ask if he's willing to do it."

Xiang Chunhua wanted to speak up several times, she wanted to ask her father to do it, but she didn't say anything in the end. Although her mother's last visit was very unpleasant, Xiang Chunhua still thought about her mother's family and hoped that they would live well.

After dinner, Zhang Hulan took some braised meat to Zhao Guoliang's house.

Seeing Zhang Hulan coming, Zhou quickly greeted her, "Hey, Hulan is here! Come in and sit down."

Zhang Hulan handed the braised meat to Zhou and said, "Aunt, I'll bring some braised meat for you and the village head uncle to try."

Zhou said hurriedly, "Oh, go sell it. I heard from Chunhua that your braised pork is selling for dozens of coins per pound. You already have a pound of this, so it's worth dozens of coins."

"It's okay, Auntie. It's not a big deal." Zhang Hulan stuffed the braised meat into Zhou's hands and asked, "Auntie, where's Brother Zhao Cheng? He's not home?"

Zhou said, "He's gone to fetch water and will be back soon. What do you want to see him about?"

Zhang Hulan nodded. "Uncle Lizheng, Auntie, I came here today to ask Brother Zhao Cheng about this. I'd like him to help me deliver goods for nine hundred coins a month. I wonder if he's willing to do that?"

Zhao Guoliang asked, "Delivering goods? Are you delivering braised meat to the restaurant?"

"Yes."

"Where are your brother and your younger brother? Can't they be sent?"

Zhang Hulan said: "My brother wants to help me deliver the goods to our county. I went to Hekou County to talk about family these two days, and Hu Bing wants to help me deliver the goods to Hekou County.

I have to go to Yangshan County to look for restaurant cooperation tomorrow, and there is no one at home to help deliver the goods, so I would like to ask Brother Zhao Cheng to help me deliver the goods.

In addition to delivering goods, I also have to collect money and buy things every day. And this is a long-term job. I don’t feel comfortable leaving it to others.”

Zhou's eyes lit up. "You mean long-term? Nine hundred wen a month?"

Zhang Hulan nodded. "Yes, long-term work, nine hundred wen a month, which is thirty wen a day."

Zhou immediately said, "He's willing, he's willing. It's such a good thing, he's definitely willing."

Zhao Guoliang said, "I know Yangshan County. It takes half a day to go there and back. You don't need to pay such a high salary."

Zhang Hulan smiled and said, "Uncle Lizheng, I pay you monthly. If Brother Zhao Cheng does it, he'll have to deliver it every day, without a single day's delay. Of course, there are exceptions to this rule. If there's something else I need occasionally, I'll ask Brother Zhao Cheng to help, and I won't charge him any more wages."

As he was speaking, Zhao Cheng came back carrying water.

Zhou quickly told Zhao Cheng that Zhang Hulan wanted him to deliver the goods, and Zhao Cheng agreed without hesitation.

If you do this for a long time, you can earn 900 coins per month, which is more than 10 taels of silver a year. This is much better than farming at home.

A person who works hard as a farmer for a whole year and does not eat or drink can still not earn ten taels of silver.
