Su Wenxiu was also stunned. He dug his ear and said, “Father, am I mistaken? Did you just say ‘fifty acres?”‘

When he finally returned to the village, he learned that his family had bought ten acres of land where their new house was. He thought it was a lot and that it was unbelievable.

However, he had just heard that his sister had bought another fifty acres, and he was simply in awe. His family owned so much land now. Of course, he knew it all belonged to his younger sister.

After all, his sister did all this for them, the Su family. They were all grateful to her from the bottom of their hearts. Even Liu Yiniyin could not fathom what she had heard.

Su Wenzhe’s ability to accept this was potent. He grinned and said, “Now that we have so much land, we can plant many soybeans!”

Su Binglan sensed everyone’s good mood and said smilingly, “Yes, we can. Also, we’re moving tomorrow, and after that, we’ll go to the mountain to pick soybeans. We’ll pick as much as possible.

“Our new house is massive, and there will be a big warehouse inside, which we can store our soybeans in.”

Shen Qiuhua sighed, “Finally, we’ll have ample space to store our things,” she saw her husband and Su Binglan were still standing as she spoke, so she hurriedly pulled them and continued, “Quick, let’s talk on the heated platform.”

It was warm on the platform, and everyone had grown accustomed to sitting on it. The family could feel its warmth when they covered themselves with blankets and talked.

When Su Binglan sat on the platform, everyone looked at her unanimously and listened to her following arrangements.

Liu Yinyin was very observant as she poured a glass of water. “You’ve said so much, Binglan. You should drink some water first.”

Su Binglan had already drank water at her grandparent’s house, but after seeing how caring her sister-in-law was, she knew it was not polite to brush her off.

She took the water and drank a few mouthfuls before continuing, “I remember the first time we picked soybeans in the mountain. It was two months ago, and summer had just passed.”

Shen Qiuhua also remembered that. “Yes, autumn had just arrived then.”

She felt emotional after reminiscing. It felt like ages ago now. Ever since they brought the soybeans home, their days drastically changed. The family relied on tofu and Su Binglan to make snacks and earn money.

Then they opened shops in town and bought some land. The family had gone through a lot lately.

“Since so much time has passed, the soybeans have continued sprouting and growing in the mountain. That’s why there are so many now.”

“Since there’s a lot now, we should have enough for the factory.”

“We need to plant more, but even our whole family can’t manage growing so many soybeans. Since that’s the case, I plan to hire the villagers to help after we move to the new house.”

Shen Qiuhua said, “That’s a good idea. It just so happens that everyone has finished their autumn harvest and has nothing much to do. They will be thrilled if we hire them to help with our soybeans.”

“The main thing is that the villagers won’t have to travel too far, and we will pay them.” Su Fengmao could understand how everyone felt.

His family had worked so hard when his food was still injured. He never stopped thinking about earning more money. He even thought it would be great if he could earn money without leaving the village.

Nonetheless, those were just thoughts, and there would be villagers who thought the same as him.

The villagers of Su Teng Village were not afraid of hard work and were willing to do work and earn money. They would even fight for work if they had to.

Su Wenzhe seemed to have thought of something and said, “I saw many people fighting to be a part of Uncle Zhengde’s construction team, but Uncle Zhengde can’t just accept everyone.”

Su Fengmao also knew how popular Su Zhengde’s construction team was. “Yes, but your uncle also has to consider whether or not some people are suitable for his line of work. After all, they will be part of a team and can’t drag down the others.”

Shen Qiuhua added, “Zhengde’s family also hired honest people from the village to cook grilled chicken and roast duck for his construction team. Some villagers also made money along with Zhengde’s family.

“Although the Mooncake Festival has passed and the sales of grilled chicken and roast duck are not as good, many restaurants and prominent families have gone to order a lot from them.

“Fengzhi also hired people to help him, and now the villagers can get busy too.

I went to your grandparent’s house a few days ago, and they were delighted.”

Shen Qiuhua was around her daughter a lot and started speaking as Su Binglan did. In any case, everyone in the Su family understood what she meant.

Su Wenzhe said passionately, “We must hire our villagers to help grow our soybeans so they can also earn money. When the time comes, they can work at our tofu factory. When the villagers have enough money, they can better prepare for the winter too.”

Obviously, no one wanted to go hungry or freeze during the winter. If the villagers had money, they could buy things to survive the winter. However, every family had to work hard because they did not have much money.

Su Wenxiu said, “Now we can help ourselves and the villagers. I will work hard and learn medicine to treat the villagers if they get sick during the winter.”

He started thinking about his childhood immediately after speaking. It was a harsh winter then, and he had a close friend. However, Su Wenxiu’s friend did not survive, which greatly affected him.

Moreover, he discovered it was easy for people to get sick during the winter, and most could not afford to treat their illnesses, so they would use local remedies to cure themselves.

It would be fine if the remedy worked, but one could only leave it up to fate if it did not. That was why Su Wenxiu always wanted to learn medicine. He could cure many people if he learned medical skills.

Su Wenxiu felt inspired when he saw his eldest brother earning money and knew what he must do, to study medicine resolutely.

However, Su Wenwu still did not know what his passion was.

Su Binglan patted Su Wenwu’s shoulder and said, “You’re still young, Third Brother. Don’t worry. You’ll eventually find your passion and what you’re good at. You will also achieve greatness when the time comes.”

Su Wenwu immediately became spirited when he heard his sister’s encouraging words. “Yes, Little Sister. Oh, right, what about your hotpot restaurant? You’ve been busy handling the tofu factory planning, so won’t it delay your hotpot restaurant opening?”

Su Wenzhe responded, “Yeah, your hotpot restaurant is the most important thing, Little Sister.”

Su Binglan explained smilingly, “There’s no delay at all. I’ve already rented the shop, but Uncle Zhengde’s team still needs time to renovate it, so there’s no rush for the next few days.

“Still, we’ve settled on the tofu products, and it’s just a matter of ingredients like mutton and pork. I thought of leaving these matters to you, Third Brother.”

Su Wenwu felt that his sister had placed him in an important position, so he hurriedly expressed his stance, “Just tell me what to do, and I will do it well, Sister!”

He was excited but also remembered what his sister had said. He thought of some details and said, “Didn’t you say it’s best to get someone to deliver those goods? How should I do that? Do I discuss it with the people who raise pigs and sheep and get them to deliver the goods? We still have to deal with that, which also requires time..”
