Wow, this rough-around-the-edges pregnant wife is something else, she's incredibly ruthless!

September 3rd.

After nearly a month of traveling and stopping, all the people from Dawn Island finally arrived at Broken Mountain Village.

Wow! This place is so beautiful.

"Yes! Look at those rice paddies over there, so much grain!"

"And this house is so beautiful."

As we walked down the mountain road, everyone's eyes never stopped admiring the beauty of Duanshan Village.

Golden rice paddies stretched as far as the eye could see, along with a beautiful house; everything around was so wonderful.

Sheng Yuanyuan held Xiaosong's hand, the little girl's eyes filled with anticipation for the future.

Sheng Tao was already waiting at the door, with Sheng Zhuzhu, Sheng Bing, and the Lu sisters, Lu He and Lu Yan, standing beside him.

The three were overjoyed to see their clansmen arrive.

Seeing so many people come to the village, the Lu sisters, He and Yan, were quite happy, and they thought the village would be as lively as before.

With her big eyes quickly searching for Lu Chuan and Meng Tong in the crowd, Lu Yan looked up and asked Sheng Yu, who was walking over, "Uncle, where are Father and Mother?"

"They're behind us, they won't arrive for a while."

He knelt down and patted the heads of the two little ones, then picked one up in each arm to comfort them.

Meanwhile, Sheng Tao was talking to Cheng Mian's father, Cheng Jun, and the others.

"From now on, let's live here properly."

"Yes, I am deeply grateful for your kindness!"

Cheng Jun's face showed gratitude and reluctance. They had just had a brief conversation about the situation on Dawn Island.

When he learned that all the old guys who used to argue with him were gone, Sheng Tao's eyes reddened and his whole body trembled.

Looking back at his clansmen, each with their families, their faces weary yet filled with hope, Sheng Tao knew this was not the time to dwell on his troubles.

After arranging for the clansmen to sit down and rest, Sheng Tao asked Sheng Xiu to find a few strong young men to go home and fetch water or food.

The decision regarding the whereabouts of the clansmen will have to wait until Lu Chuan and Meng Tong return.

……

A small courtyard in the valley.

Looking at the thriving medicinal herbs in the valley, Meng Tong's fatigue from the journey vanished at that moment.

Squatting down, Meng Tong plucked a ginseng root and handed a small leaf to Lu Chuan, saying, "Try it."

"Hmm." The man took it without hesitation and put it in his mouth. It tasted slightly bitter at first, followed by a sweet aftertaste.

“This stuff is very nutritious. I’ll pick a couple of plants to take home and occasionally make soup with.”

"it is good."

As he answered, the man prepared to squat down and pull it out as well, but then he felt a burning sensation all over his body and a rush of heat to his nose.

"Well."

"You're bleeding from your nose?"

Meng Tong was greatly shocked to see him suddenly cover his nose and walk towards the waterfall.

Is it replenished that quickly?

Staring wide-eyed at the ginseng in his hand, Meng Tong was somewhat incredulous; Lu Chuan had only eaten a single leaf.

Meng Tong casually plucked two plants and then walked towards the waterfall.

The man was squatting by the stream, washing his face with water.

"How's it going? Still bleeding? You're so full of youthful vigor!"

Squatting down by the stream with him, Meng Tong scooped up water and placed it on the back of Lu Chuan's neck, teasing him as she did so.

Upon hearing this, the man's lips curled up slightly. After the heat subsided, he replied in a low voice, "My wife should know this all too well."

"You...stop being cheeky."

Feeling a flush on her cheeks, Meng Tong stood up and walked outside. Lu Chuan turned around and quickly followed. The man's smiling eyes were tinged with a hint of teasing as he said, "The ginseng that my wife grew... is very nourishing."

"That's true, the results have exceeded my expectations."

As they talked, the two walked toward the herb garden, picking some other medicinal herbs. Meng Tong planted all the fresh herbs he had found along the way, and also infused them with some of his special abilities to maintain their normal growth.

After leaving the valley, the two rode directly back to Duanshan Village on the "green carpet".

……

main hall.

The room was filled with people sitting together, discussing the fate of the Dawn Islanders.

"Tongtong, this is your territory. Where do you think would be a reasonable place to go?"

Sitting in the main seat, Sheng Tao looked at Meng Tong with a smile. No one else had the right to speak, and everyone looked at Lu Chuan and Meng Tong.

To be honest, Meng Tong had considered this matter.

The Dawn Island tribe has nearly four thousand people. It would be impossible for them all to stay in Duanshan Village. Firstly, she doesn't like it because there are too many people and it's too noisy. Secondly, other parts of Laoshan Town also need development.

After much thought, Meng Tong decided to break it up. There are six large villages under Laoshan Town, including Duanshan Village, Xiangshui Village, Zhujia Village, Pingkou Village, Yanhui Village, and Dapozi Village.

These six large villages each have hundreds of acres of land. If the people are separated, it will not only promote the synchronous development of the villages, but also allow them to reclaim wasteland for farming.

Her most important task now is to manage the entire Laoshan Town well. The people of Dawn Island should also contribute. She doesn't like to keep idle people around.

After explaining his plan, Meng Tong asked for the opinions of everyone present.

“I agree with my sister-in-law’s idea. There are still many places in Laoshan Town that need to be developed. It’s unnecessary for all the clansmen to gather together.”

"I agree."

“I have a question,” a man nearing forty interrupted.

His name is Zhou Yuan. He used to be the person in charge of the daily lives of the Dawn Island people. He had no objection to Meng Tong's actions, but he had one question.

"You said."

"After we were assigned to different villages, were we to rely on our own efforts or...?"

"In the early stages, I will provide food and accommodation for everyone. Of course, I will only provide the materials; you will have to build it yourselves."

"I will also provide seeds for planting and clearing land later, but I will take 70% of your grain production."

Don't blame her for taking so much; she could have kept it all for herself. Moreover, she had calculated beforehand that even the remaining 30% would be more than enough for them to eat, and there would even be some left over.

He was relieved that Zhou Yuan was provided with supplies, and he didn't think 70% was too much.

Seeing that everyone was quite satisfied with the arrangement, the next step was to make arrangements for these nearly four thousand people.

Since Meng Tong's family was perfectly capable of handling the task, no one else was assigned to Duanshan Village besides Sheng Yuanyuan, Sheng Zhou, Sheng Fang, and a few others.

Next are the remaining five large villages and the town.

There is also a lot of land around Laoshan Town, and this is where the most people are needed.

More than 20 people, including Wu Biao, who had previously reclaimed land in Zhujia Village, as well as the elderly family they had met at the relief center, are now all in the town.

Besides helping the brick kiln, their mission also included repairing houses in the town.

Some wealthy businessmen's mansions could be renovated and people could move in directly.

When this arrangement was told to all the Dawn Island people, no one complained. Their greatest hope was simply to live well.

Finally, 843 people went to Laoshan Town, the place with the most women and children. Next were 650 people from Xiangshui Village, 520 people from Zhujia Village, 480 people from Pingkou Village, 400 people from Yanhui Village, and 405 people from Dapozi Village.

There were a total of 3,310 people, and the remaining 12 stayed in Duanshan Village.
