The Valiant Farmgirl's Blackhearted Husband Wants a Hug

Chapter 71 - 71 Chapter 71: Plan



71 Chapter 71: Plan

Qin Xiaoyao looked at Big Girl Li with a smile.

“I’m thinking of doing some business.”

...

“Business?” Big Girl Li looked puzzled.

“Yes.” Qin Xiaoyao nodded.

As she said that, she looked at the handcart she was pushing.

“We’ll use this handcart.”

Big Girl Li was still puzzled.

“Just like what I am doing in the village now,” Qin Xiaoyao explained. “I’ll buy goods at a low price, then raise the price, and sell them in town.”

“In addition, we can also import some goods from the town and do business as a street vendor.”

“Of course, we can forget about Brook Falls Village. With this handcart, we can go further. We can go down the main road to other villages and make a few rounds there.”

“This…” Big Girl Li began to understand somewhat, but she was a little worried that she couldn’t do it.

Qin Xiaoyao looked at Big Girl Li with a smile.

“In the early stages, we’ll collect the goods personally to test the market.”

“If this business can be done, you can ask your Daniu to come back and help.”

Big Girl Li was stunned.

Then, her eyes were filled with joy.

“Didn’t you say that you hated the fact that Daniu was working in town and couldn’t stay at home to be with you every day? If he comes back to help us, at least you two can see each other every day.”

“Great!” Big Girl Li immediately nodded.

After that, Qin Xiaoyao started discussing the next step with Big Girl Li.

Although it was called a discussion, it was actually just Qin Xiaoyao talking. Big Girl Li simply perked up her ears to listen.

After knowing that Qin Xiaoyao had made so many plans, Big Girl Li’s heart felt more at ease.

She felt that even if she couldn’t find any Chinese yams in the mountains, or if the business of Chinese Toon shoots had ended, she could still follow her Sister Sanya to make money.

When they were about to reach Brook Falls Village, she heard that Qin Xiaoyao had finished weaving the fishing net, and they could go and cast the net in the afternoon. Big Girl Li was happy again.

“I’ll look for you after lunch. Let’s go to River Ringwaters together!” Big Girl Li said with some excitement.

“Alright!” Qin Xiaoyao was also looking forward to it.

Back at the Song family’s house.

Madam Liu had already prepared lunch.

At the dinner table, before Qin Xiaoyao could say anything, Madam Liu told her about the situation of collecting eggs in the village.

Qin Xiaoyao wasn’t surprised when she learned that Madam Liu had only received 30 eggs.

“It’s fine. Just take as much as you can. In addition, if the quantity collected is low, it may be because not everyone knows that we’re starting to collect eggs.”

“There’s no need to find someone to promote this to the outside world. If someone comes to sell vegetables or mountain products, you can just tell them directly. The news in our village spreads quickly, so everyone will know about this soon,” Qin Xiaoyao said.

“Alright.” Madam Liu agreed to her idea.

Qin Xiaoyao paused for a moment and seemed to have thought of something. She turned to Madam Liu and asked, “By the way, were there many people who came to our house this morning to make appointments to sell vegetables? Yesterday’s incident with the Wang family…”

“It didn’t affect us much,” Madam Liu replied with a smile.

“In fact, there are even more people here today than before. They even comforted me and told me not to bother with the Wang family’s mother and daughter-in-law.”

Now that she thought about it, this was the first time the villagers had cared so much about Madam Liu and said these words to her.

Although she knew those people were only telling her these things because they wanted to sell more vegetables to their Song family, she still felt very relieved when she heard it.

Qin Xiaoyao felt relieved to see her mother-in-law smiling so happily.

“That’s good. In the future, when we interact with the villagers, we should have more dealings with those who are kind and good. If anyone tries to pick a fight with us, just tell me. We won’t accept their goods in the future, and we won’t have any more dealings with them.”

“Okay!” Madam Liu agreed with a smile.

In the past, she had always thought that she should not offend the villagers easily, but the actions of her daughter-in-law yesterday and the reactions of the villagers today changed her mindset totally.

It wasn’t a good thing to be constantly giving in and being weak.

With her daughter-in-law around, the Song family was different from before.

Suddenly, Madam Liu asked Qin Xiaoyao, “By the way, the villagers are all giving feedback to us, saying that it’s too little if we only collect 100 catties of vegetables every two days. They asked if we could collect more.”

There were quite a number of families selling vegetables to them in the village. In order to allow more people a chance to come to their house to sell vegetables, Qin Xiaoyao set another rule.

That rule was each family could only sell 20 catties of vegetables at a time, and only once every four days.

However, even so, there were already more than 20 families who came to register and queue up to sell vegetables.

Qin Xiaoyao was quite surprised.

“Then increase it by another 50 catties,” she continued.

Madam Liu’s face lit up.

“Great! I’ll have Ye’er go and inform two more families later.”

Qin Xiaoyao glanced at her mother-in-law. “Actually, Fortune Mansion had already informed me. They said that if I can go to town and deliver vegetables to them every day, they’ll give me a quota of 150 catties of vegetables a day.”

Madam Liu was stunned.

“So much?” she asked in surprise.

Qin Xiaoyao nodded.

“The vegetables we send to town are all collected in the evening or evening of the previous day. If we send them to town early in the morning the next day, we can guarantee that the vegetables are fresh.”

“There’s not much difference between Fortune Mansion arranging for staff to buy from the market and buying directly from us. Or rather, it’s more cost-effective to buy it from us, and it’s more convenient.”

“With Uncle Zhao around, it’s not difficult for us to take control of this business.”

Madam Liu’s eyes wavered.

“Every household in our village grows vegetables. It won’t be a problem to gather 150 catties a day,” she said immediately.

According to the current unit price, they could earn 5% per catty, so 150 catties would be 75 copper coins.

In addition to the mountain products and the poultry that the villagers occasionally came to sell, even if she didn’t count the Chinese yams and Chinese Toon shoots, it wasn’t difficult to make a hundred copper coins.

It was more than a hundred copper coins. Even a strong laborer wouldn’t be able to earn that much money by doing hard labor.

At this point, Madam Liu wished she could go to the town herself to help deliver the vegetables.

The main thing was that this wasn’t a one-time deal. It could be done on a long-term basis.

However, she also knew that she couldn’t do it at all.

Her only regret was that her eldest son’s leg had not healed. Otherwise, he could also help her daughter-in-law.

Sigh! Their family’s manpower was still too limited.

She was useless, and her eldest son was injured.

Her daughter and youngest son were still young, so she could not count on them.

Otherwise, with their daughter-in-law’s ability, they did not need to hire outsiders to do things.

That was right. From Madam Liu’s point of view, her daughter-in-law had hired Big Girl Li and before that, Liu Daniu too, to work for her because they lacked labor at home.

Of course, that was the truth.

Qin Xiaoyao muttered to herself.

“It’s hard to say what’s going to happen in the mountains. But I’ve already told Big Girl that we’ll have to search the mountains on the outskirts of the deep mountain area.”

“If we don’t find anything valuable, I’ll have to find another way out.”

Qin Xiaoyao looked at Madam Liu.

“We have a handcart. When the time comes, we can push the handcart around the villages and buy some goods. We should still be able to make some money.”

“When the time comes, if it is just me and Big Girl, we may not be able to handle it.”

“However, Big Girl has already agreed. If the business can be done, she can ask her Daniu to come back and help.”

“My plan is to let the two of them, or Daniu alone, go to the countryside to collect and sell goods. Or I can bring Big Girl along and go to town to sell goods every day.”
