Lu Shen felt that this method was feasible, so he went with the village chief to talk to those people.
Those people also felt that it was feasible. This way, everyone could do it. Even the bearded man at the end felt his intestines turn green.
This was because the little scholar that he despised actually knew the person who asked them to dig the mountain. Moreover, he saw that they had a good relationship.
MO Ruyue didn’t care about those things anymore. She asked Wei Yi and the others to go to the town bank to exchange for copper coins. She gave them to the workers and gave them a salary every day. This way, they would be able to work harder with cash every day.
County Magistrate Wu was brought here by Xiao Liuzi along with his official. From afar, he could see the people at the entrance of Xihe Village.
“Quick, quick, quick!”
“You guys go and stop them first!”
When he arrived, he saw that those armed people were actually lining up. There was a table at the entrance of the village, and someone was writing something.
County Magistrate Wu…
Xiao Liuzi…
County Magistrate Wu saw Meng Xun and Lu Shen coming out and quickly went forward to ask what was going on.
MO Ruyue went to the sanatorium.
She found the old man who had learned fried chicken and duck from her.
“Let me tell you, if you have a few more people, you can make pancakes and stew big bone soup every day. The bones are cheap, but the soup is delicious. Sell them to the mountain area every day and you’ll definitely make money.”
“Hey, I’ll listen to Doctor MO!”
The people in the sanatorium were not stupid. Some of them even wanted to mine.
MO Ruyue felt that as long as they were capable, they would do it.
“Oh right, make a lot of rabbit meat. It’s all braised and cut into small pieces.”
“I want all the rabbit skins.”
It was especially white. It would look good if she made a cloak for Tang Tang in winter.
The seasoned soldiers all remembered it and immediately started working.
Those people had to eat dinner at night, and the meal in the middle of the night had to be prepared.
After MO Ruyue had arranged for the sanatorium, she went to Wang Dazhu’s house with Qin Qingfei.
“You two can go and buy some groceries. Small snacks. Small snacks can also make their own. First, make less and prepare more groceries.”
“Also, take Mrs. Chen with you. Remember to bring in different goods.”
“If there are other people who want to get it, just pull them together and don’t buy the same goods.”
“Can this really work?”
Mrs. Wang was also very moved by MO Ruyue’s flattery.
“Even if it doesn’t work this time, when they finish digging the mountain and Gu Ying’s academy opens, it will definitely work.”
“When the time comes, our village will set up a stall to sell everything we can.
When the time comes, I’ll organize a village appreciation meeting and get some new things from the capital.”
“Sisters-in-law, trust me and listen to me. I won’t let you suffer.”
“Alright, let’s do it!”
Mrs. Wang and Qin Qingfei made the decision and called the men to prepare to get someone to stock up in a while.
The old village chief and Lu Shen discussed and assigned those people. They started work on the same day.
The foot of the mountain near West River Village was very lively. In just a few days, many people would come from time to time on the village road.
Some of them were watching their own family work, while others were purely watching the show.
If it wasn’t for the fact that women were weak, many wives would want to do it.
Many people saw a row of neat wooden signs erected at the entrance of West River Village. On them were all kinds of vivid daily necessities, snacks, and small toys. They were very fresh.
“Look, this is a steamed bun. It really looks like it. The wrinkles on the steamed bun look real.”
“It looks even more delicious than the buns in town. This is a painting drawn on a wooden board. Why is it so realistic?”
“This is candied haws, right?”
“Yo, this is a butterfly pearl flower!”
Those aunties and young wives studied the signs thoroughly in front of them.
The few of them looked at one of their wives and especially liked the butterfly on a wooden sign. They felt that the butterfly looked very beautiful and wanted to bring it home.
She looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so she reached out to pull it out.
She had just made a move when she was discovered.
“What are you guys doing?
“If you don’t ask, you’re a thief!”
Gou Dan led his friends to patrol the village entrance. They saw these people surrounding their village’s wooden sign and pointing at it. They even wanted to steal it.
They were the small patrol team in the village. They only took care of dinner because the adults were going home to cook.
Gou Dan was sent to a private school by Qin Qingfei a month ago, and he learned a lot.
He had only learned it today. At first, he did not really understand the meaning, but after asking Da Bao, he explained it to him. He suddenly felt that he was very knowledgeable when he learned it and applied it on the spot.
The wife didn’t expect that she would be discovered before she could do anything bad. Her face turned red and she quickly retracted her hand, squeaking.
“I… Just look at the dust on it. Let me wipe it.” “Don’t you guys not know how to be kind.”
There was no need to mention the guilt.
Gou Dan wanted to say something but was stopped by Tang Tang.
“Aunt, the painting on our wooden token is beautiful, right? This is my mother’s painting!’
“Our village sells these things. If you like them, you can go in and buy them. There are many things!’
“You’re new customers, and we’re giving new customers discounts for the next three days!’
Tang Tang remembered MO Ruyue’s words. If anyone saw it, introduce them to the stall. She introduced it, and she would get a 10% bonus for every item sold!
“Yo, whose little doll is this? She’s really beautiful and has a glib tongue.”
These wives were all here to deliver food to their men. Their village was not far from here. They thought that the men would have to spend money to buy food here, so they might as well walk a little more and deliver it here. It would not cost much and they could save a few wens.
If it was a month, it would be a few hundred wen or more.
There were many people like them.
The reason why MO Ruyue had asked the village to set up those stalls was because there would definitely be people who would come to deliver food and drinks when they saw so many people working. Even if these people did not buy anything, they would just look around. If they saw more, they would know that there was a street of stalls in West River Village.
Moreover, there was no need to pay a stall fee in their village. The cost was not high, and the price was cheaper than in the town. If those people wanted to buy something one day, the first thing they would think of was the stall in
West River Village, which was close to them.
There was also the law of women shopping. If you didn’t buy anything today, you wouldn’t buy anything tomorrow, but if you shopped again the day after tomorrow, you would definitely buy at least one or two things that you liked.
After all, she had shopped a few times and felt that she would lose out if she didn’t buy something.
These wives were good housekeepers. They felt guilty because of what had happened before. Tang Tang’s little mouth was sweet and crisp, and she looked cute. They followed her to the stalls in front of Mrs. Wang’s house to take a look.
They read from beginning to end and even asked about the price. After a round of comments, they did not buy anything, not even a headband.
Mrs. Wang and the others were a little anxious. They had been setting up the stall for a day, but they still hadn’t sold anything. These things had cost them a lot of money.
“What should we do? If we can’t even sell a hair tie, what’s the point of setting up a stall?”
“You can’t just throw these things in your hands, right?”
It was quite a few taels of silver. The funds were deducted from the betrothal gift for his son’s wife..
