If they hadn't all been convicted of crimes and had no way to buy a house in the city or leave Yancun to settle down, he would definitely take Luo Shuyan and fly away.
However, this is fine now.
He is not alone. With the Zhao family as an ally, he feels much more at ease.
Naturally, the fact that the Zhao family acted as a "middleman" to buy land for the mysterious big boss to work on could not have been kept hidden from Yancun. Even if the news in Yancun was kept secret, it slowly spread.
The villagers are all envious.
After all, not everyone can have this kind of opportunity, and the Zhao family's luck is really too good.
The Gu family is particularly frustrated. What kind of big boss really has no vision? I wonder if the Gu family is the first family to have the final say in Yancun? If you have anything to do with the Gu family, why should you contact the Zhao family?
The Gu family was unwilling to give in and secretly investigated, hoping to find the big boss behind the scenes and intercept Hu.
It's a pity that the Gu family is not very smart, so they started to investigate secretly, and the Zhao family discovered it.
Zhao Liya and the others are so amused, let them look for it, they will win if they find it!
"However, the villagers can't make any money from this matter, so they will inevitably feel uncomfortable. Although logically speaking, we have done nothing to offend anyone. We don't need to consider others about what we want to do with sugar cane and potatoes.
But from a human perspective, we are all from Yancun after all, so we have to let the big guys get some benefits."
Zhao Liya said again.
Hu Ling was in a dilemma: "There are so many families in Zaihu Village and Bajiao Village, and the work is not enough, how can there be more for others? Besides, not every family in Yan Village is good, who can give these countless jobs?
It won’t be easy to handle if you don’t give it to anyone.”
Zhao Xiang: "What you said makes sense. It would be nice if we could just ask the villagers to do something else alone."
Zhao Liya's heart moved, and she smiled and said, "When dad said that, I really thought of something."
Zhao Xiang asked quickly what it was?
Zhao Liya said: "Now that the rice has been harvested, aren't the fields free? Why not let everyone plant some vegetables, cabbage, white radish, lettuce, celery, spinach, etc., pick three or four kinds and wait for the harvest.
If we transport it to the provincial capital and sell it, wouldn't we be able to make a fortune?"
Zhao Xiang's eyes lit up, he nodded and smiled: "This is a good idea, but it is easy to grow these vegetables, but it is not easy to sell them, unless our family buys them and sells them."
Zhao Liya: "That's exactly what I had in mind!"
In fact, she didn't really want to go to such trouble to earn such a small amount of money, but if she didn't bring the villagers to play together, problems would easily occur, especially when the Gu family was involved.
Nowadays, Sister-in-law Gu, a trumpeter who is full of lies, has told countless lies about sugar cane and potatoes. Even if the villagers don't necessarily believe her, I'm afraid they won't feel too good about it.
In their eyes, the Zhao family is from the same village as them, but the benefits are taken by people from other villages. Who can have no objection?
More importantly, the vast majority of villagers are friendly to the Zhao family.
Hu Ling couldn't help but worry: "But there are dozens of families growing vegetables. How much will they get? We are willing to buy and transport. Is there anyone in the provincial capital who wants it? What if we can't sell it?"
"Let's think of a way, it will work!"
Zhao Liya's heart moved, and she suddenly thought of Zhong Jing, and she became more confident: "This thing can probably be done, we will wait for two days to make plans."
Zhao Xiang nodded and said, "Ya'er, if you think you can do it, then do it."
Zhao Liya smiled: "Thank you, Dad!"
As soon as she said it, Zhao Liya went to Zaihu Village and Bajiao Village first, and told Li Zheng from the two places that she had something to do at home in the next two or three days, so she might not be able to come over, so she asked them to take care of the land reclamation.
There is nothing we can solve until they come back.
Both sides patted their chests to reassure her!
Zhao Liya planned to go to Suixi County with Hu Ling to find General Zhong Jing at the garrison base camp and ask him if he needed food in the military camp.
If he needs it there and can consume some of it, then it will be much easier to transport it to the provincial capital.
When she and Hu Ling go out, they will not let Qu Yutao go to Zaihu Village or Bajiao Village alone. Although they are only seven or eight miles apart, if something happens, won't they regret it for the rest of their lives?
Zhao Liya doesn’t think the Gu family and the Hulu ones can do anything bad.
Over at the military camp, Zhao Liya and Hu Ling met Zhong Jing smoothly.
After hearing what they said, Zhong Jing immediately called the leader of the Huotou Army.
When the leader of the Huotou Army heard this, he pulled out the purchase list, calculated it, and said with a smile: "We have already reserved the vegetables radish, cabbage, winter melon, and pumpkin here. If we have lettuce, spinach, chrysanthemum, celery, garlic sprouts, shallots, etc.
Okay, I wonder how much quantity you two have? How do you plan to supply it?"
Half of the vegetables used by the garrison are grown by themselves, and the other half are purchased from four locally selected gentry and landlord families who have carefully checked their backgrounds. Very few vegetables are purchased from the market, for the sake of safety.
However, in the past few years, due to peace and tranquility, this rule is usually not strictly followed, as long as the source of various vegetables and foods can be found.
During the acceptance inspection, we will also randomly check some sheep and rabbits that are fed to the trial to further confirm safety.
Zhao Liya also wondered if there would be a regular supplier in the military camp, so she came to ask with the idea of giving it a try. She had agreed with Zhong Jing from the beginning that if there was a regular supplier, then forget it.
After hearing these words, the leader of the Huotou Army had a good impression of the two of them. Since they were introduced by General Zhong personally, they must be reliable. Although General Zhong was young, he was always meticulous in what needed to be done. The leader of the Huotou Army quickly made a decision.
,he wanted some leafy vegetables.
If you can buy it, let the sergeants grow less vegetables. These people are not reliable in growing vegetables and their crops are not good.
But there is another problem: money is limited, and the seller’s profit will be relatively thin.
Zhao Liya doesn't care about thin profits. If the quantity is large, she will make money. As for how much? She can't say at the moment. How to supply it depends on the military camp.
After some discussion, Zhao Liya decided to plant five kinds of spinach, celery, lettuce, chrysanthemum and garlic sprouts. The supply time was determined to be from December to early February. It doesn’t matter a few days earlier or later. It will be delivered once every six days, and all kinds of crops will be delivered at once.
The total amount of vegetables is about 50,000 kilograms.
The small leader of the Huotou Army was also a master of calculations, because the military camp also cultivated land, and he had a rough idea of how much these vegetables could be produced per acre. He quickly calculated that based on this supply, Zhao Liya would need to plant about 80 acres of vegetables.
Eighty acres can be planted in the village. Zhao Liya agreed.
Zhong Jing smiled and said: "Miss Zhao, there is no need to feel pressure. It doesn't matter if you have more or less."
