Rebirth of a Farmer's Dad

Over the next few days, Zhu Gan and the other two busied themselves in the rented courtyard, while Luo Feng was busy buying furniture and ordering custom-made billboards. It was fair to say that there wasn't a single person idle in the shop for a while. In fact, everyone was busier than before.

Looking at the newly renovated courtyard, Luo Feng was overjoyed. It seemed his wedding planning company would soon be officially established. Unlike later generations, regulations weren't as strict then, especially in this remote county town. You could open a shop anywhere without worrying about registration procedures. At most, when tax collectors came, you'd just pay a small fee and complete the paperwork.

From this perspective, Luo Feng absolutely loved this era. It was precisely because the laws were lax that he had the opportunity to exploit loopholes. If he had followed the rules of later generations, he would never have been able to start a company so quickly.

After tidying everything up, Luo Feng busied himself with the arrangements while simultaneously sending Zhu Gan and the others to fetch Wang Dana. Luo Feng wanted Wang Dana to help him check if there was anything he had overlooked.

A short while later, Wang Dana followed the bamboo pole into the house. Luo Feng looked behind him and realized that his niece had not followed.

"Didn't you say last time that your niece was learning a trade from you? Why didn't you bring her to see it?" Luo Feng said, handing a cigarette to Wang Dana.

"I think it's unnecessary. It's better for her to stay at home. Bringing her here might attract unwanted attention," Wang Dana said, taking a cigarette while glaring at the bamboo pole beside him.

"Suit yourself. Come and see how I've arranged things. Give me some feedback." Luo Feng clearly didn't want to dwell on this topic any longer, since it was someone else's family matter and he had no right to interfere.

"The setup is alright, but what about those wedding planning documents you mentioned? Let me take a look." Wang Dana smoked a cigarette, looked around the room, and then said to Luo Feng. After speaking, he pulled up a chair and sat down.

"Okay, take a look first. I'll get back to work now." After saying that, Luo Feng took something out of the drawer of his newly bought desk and handed it to Wang Dana.

Seeing that Wang Dana took it with both hands and was examining it carefully, Luo Feng didn't disturb him. He planned to go back to his shop first, as he had things to do there.

"You brat, come here and tell me, did Luo Feng really write all this stuff?" After looking at it for a full half hour, Wang Dana suddenly looked up, called over Zhugan, and asked.

"I don't know if he wrote it or not, but when I went to see Brother Feng that day, I did see him organizing these things," Zhugan answered honestly.

"Is there some powerful figure behind him?" Wang Dana asked, stroking his chin.

"To be honest, I don't know." Bamboo Pole spread his hands, shrugged, and made a helpless gesture.

The wedding preparations at the small courtyard have come to an end, while Luo Feng is on his way to a job interview at the store.

Looking at the man and woman standing in front of him, Luo Feng frowned slightly. Judging from their appearances, they were both greenhorns, fresh out of school and inexperienced in the real world. He wondered if they could adapt to life in the shop.

"You can stay here for now. Tiger will arrange the specific tasks for you." Luo Feng thought for a moment. These people were brought by the second brother, so they should be reliable. Let's give them a chance first.

They agreed that they would work as apprentices for two months, receiving 50 yuan a month for living expenses, with three meals provided by the shop. After two months, they would receive 200 yuan a month, the same as Hu Zi's previous treatment. Both were students with little social experience, so they readily agreed, fearing that Luo Feng would refuse, which would force them to go back to farming.

And so, Luo Feng hired two more employees, a man named Ade and a woman named Xiaotian, who were siblings.

Afterwards, Luo Feng arranged their accommodations. The wedding courtyard was ready, so Zhu Gan and the other two could move there immediately. This would free up a room upstairs. Xiao Tian could move in, and Xing Hua could share with her. As for A De, he could stay with Hu Zi. Shun Zi would move in and squeeze in with him. That was all they could do for now. They would rent a place for everyone later when they had more money.

After arranging everything, Luo Fenghe and the three of them carried the things into the wedding courtyard. As soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw Wang Dana sitting alone in the yard, basking in the sun.

"You don't even protect yourself from the UV rays? Aren't you afraid of getting sunburned?" Luo Feng said irritably, pulling Wang Dana into the house.

"Where have you been? I was almost falling asleep waiting for you," Wang Dana said, yawning.

"It's not as exaggerated as you say. I was only gone for a short while." Luo Feng glared at him irritably.

Before he could explain, Luo Feng asked again, "I asked you to help me see what's missing, what do you think?"

"I think your wedding planning proposals are really good. I definitely wouldn't have that level of skill. No wonder your business is so successful." Wang Dana subtly flattered Luo Feng.

"Alright, I'm talking about serious matters. Don't tease me." Luo Feng was clearly not buying it.

“In my opinion, this courtyard is fine. It would be even more perfect if you could put those renderings on the wall so that customers could see them at a glance,” Wang Dana said.

"That was my oversight. I'll take care of it right away." With that, Luo Feng called over Da Zhuang, who was standing nearby, and asked him to do it.

"Is everything alright now?" Luo Feng asked.

"No problem. We'll just wait for the customers to come to us, and then we'll be rolling in money," Wang Dana said confidently.

"Alright, I'll go first. I'll head back now. You can look after things here. Also, by the way, you should probably call your niece over. How can she learn a skill if she's left alone at home?" Luo Feng said, leaving behind these words before walking out.

“I’ll naturally consider this matter; you don’t need to say anything more.” After walking a few steps, Wang Dana’s angry roar came from behind.

Back at the shop, Luo Feng was in high spirits and couldn't help humming a few lines. "I've waited so long, today has finally come; I've dreamt so long, my dream has finally come true."...

Tomorrow is Friday, and Xinghua and the others should have their day off after that. Hmm. The training can be postponed for a few more days; I'll take my daughter back to the village for a couple of days first. I need to make some time to strengthen the bond between father and daughter, too.

Having made up his mind, Luo Feng got busy. He still needed to do business at the shop today. Tomorrow night he'd pack up, and the day after, he'd take his daughter back to his hometown for a few days. Luo Feng was really looking forward to his daughter's summer vacation starting soon, so his own vacation could begin.

"I long to return to my hometown, to be by her side again, to have her gentle kindness soothe my wounded heart." Unable to contain himself, Luo Feng belted out a few lines. This drew stares from the diners around him. Their looks... well, they were practically staring at him like he was crazy.
