Madam, She Has a Tender Heart

Chapter 256: Can it be controlled?

The matter was settled. ReadМ

They don't need food money anymore, and they no longer participate in shop trading.

It is said that this market town in the mountains is run by Su Qingyu, and the profits also belong to her.

Originally, Su Qingyu wanted to ask them about the price of selling the shop and split the money from selling the shop among the three parties, but it seemed that the two of them only wanted food.

He probably changed his mind after seeing the food.

Whether it's Pei Nian or Ma Mingwen, one needs food to make military rations, and the other needs to govern the place and also need to store food.

For them, it should also be a surprise.

Ma Mingwen asked Su Qingyu some of her thoughts, and Su Qingyu also told her frankly.

Her initial idea was to help Ma Mingwen take over the twenty-eight villages and reassure them that there were people taking care of them and no one would give up on them, so that they could live in peace and that no more bandits would come and plunder them.

Then the extra resources in the village are circulated among the villages to meet everyone's daily needs through mutual trading.

Then bring the daily things that everyone needs to buy from outside and gather them in one place for everyone to buy, providing a convenient place for supply and demand, that's all.

She doesn't want to use the money she earns from growing grain to buy grain from outside at high prices, and wants to solve the problem internally.

Unexpectedly, the stall spread all of a sudden, and both Ma Mingwen and Pei Nian noticed this piece of cake.

"Since you have a big stall now, if the outside world knows that you produce food here, I'm afraid there will be no peace."

"Yes." Pei Nian nodded.

"If there are lawless people outside the Twenty-eight Villages, I'm afraid you won't be able to deal with them. I'll leave a team for you to help you guard this market town, and also do other things at your command, otherwise you're afraid No one uses it.”

After hearing this, Pei Nian nodded and said, "That's right. Neither your godfather nor I thought that you would lay out the stalls like this. This is like a small and medium-sized town. No matter how many people there are, it will be as big as one You have to go to the county. Someone needs to help you guard it, otherwise your godfather and I will be heartbroken if someone picks the fruit."

Su Qingyu agreed.

But when I thought about fifty people having to eat, drink, and clothe themselves, and also have to deal with their accommodation problems. What's more important is that I don't know whether I will obey the restrictions in the future.

If you don't listen, it will be a bit of a headache.

"Godfather, do you think I can control this team?" She was a little worried.

She didn't want to worry so much, she just wanted to develop the mountain economy and make a little money.

Pei Nian also realized this problem and glanced at Ma Mingwen.

Ma Mingwen said to Su Qingyu: "Don't worry, the people your godfather gives you will choose loyal subordinates for you. Don't worry, you can use them. You are my daughter and their master. They don't dare to respect you as much as they respect me." Two minds.”

All right. Then try to see it.

Besides, she couldn't refuse, and there was no better way.

"Don't worry, your godfather and I didn't expect you to take out the grain fields. This is different from before. Your godfather and I will not treat you lightly."

Pei Nian told him that the relationship was so important that neither Ma Mingwen nor he would take it lightly.

The three of them discussed some things again before settling on the matter.

Manager Li walked around and came in and said, "Ms. Su, I've decided on the small building next door to you. I'll send someone over in two days. How much money do you think the shop will cost?"

Su Qingyu looked at him, there was nothing here, the flesh hadn't even come off, yet everyone wanted to cut him?

"It's very cheap to sell it to others, but it's not the same price to sell it to you."

"Don't, we are all so familiar, it's not easy to kill someone who is familiar with you."

Finally, several people discussed it, and Su Qingyu also listened to their opinions and decided on a two-story building with a price of one hundred taels.

This price can be accepted by each village, and it can be spread to a price that every household can accept. Manager Li also paid for the small building next to hers.

Finally, the matter was settled, and everyone rushed to Baijiazhai at night.

I simply freshened up and went to sleep.

The next day, Pei Nian, Ma Mingwen, Manager Li and others got up early and left the village.

After Su Qingnao saw them off, she continued to work on spring plowing.

Now we can't take it lightly. The two big guys are eyeing it. You can't do it casually.

Just after busy spring plowing, the fifty-man team Ma Mingwen gave her entered the stockade.

This caused panic among the villagers in Baijiazhai. After learning that they were here to protect them, they were relieved and ran out to watch.

Su Qingyu met them one by one.

The leader is Ma Xin, who was his godfather's former domestic servant and general. He is the same age as his godfather. He said that he has served him since childhood and is the most loyal. He is also very capable in his work, so let him lead this team.

Ma Xin originally followed Ma Mingwen on his expeditions, but he was a little unhappy when he learned that he would be sent to the mountains.

Later, after Ma Mingwen told him that there might be a lot of grain hidden in the mountains, he knew that the matter was serious, so he happily accepted the order and led the team into the mountains.

"Miss."

"Hello, Uncle Xin."

After saying hello, I followed Ma Xin and saw the team of fifty people one by one.

The fifty people were divided into ten corps, each with a corps leader. There are not many, they all obey Ma Xin's orders, and now Su Qingyu is added to the list.

Su Qingnao couldn't remember so many people, she only remembered ten corps commanders, and the others only remembered familiar faces.

Although her godfather said she didn't need to worry about these people's salaries, there were still a lot of things to worry about.

There is no place to live yet.

First we entertained them in Baijiazhai.

Su Qingmei discussed the management and daily life of the team with Ma Xin. After the discussion, she asked Siyuan to take the people to the market town and let them build their own barracks.

She also asked Siyuan to go to the new camp to call Xiang Shang over.

Xiang Shang came with Siyuan the next day.

Su Qingmei directly instructed him: "You and Siyuan go to Fengcheng. Last time, Ling Fenggu said that there was a batch of medicinal materials that needed to be sold urgently. You two should first go to Jian'antang to find Doctor Xiao Song to sell the medicine, and second, get some medicinal seeds from him."

"Third, you two should see if there are some strong laborers willing to sell their own and buy some back. Now there are not enough people. In the future, we will have to arrange people to guard the market town and the village. There are still many jobs in the fields. Pay special attention to those who have skills."

"Yes."

"Before going out, let Wei Fuchang keep an eye on the progress of the village construction, and then arrange the work of tea tree cuttings before leaving."

Xiang Shang agreed.

After the two left, Su Qingmei sat in the chair without coming back to her senses.

Why are there so many things?

She just wants to live in peace and seclusion.

Su Qingliu quietly handed her a cup of tea: "Qingmei, have some tea."

"Sister."

Su Qingmei took it and took a sip.

Now there is no shortage of tea at home. There is plenty for entertaining guests or drinking by yourself.

The same is true in Baijiazhai. Every family has no shortage of tea now. In the past, everyone either drank plain water or did not boil water. They scooped up a handful of mountain spring water outside and drank it.

Mountain spring water is sweet, and Su Qingmei often uses it to make tea, but she always tells her family to boil it before drinking.

Seeing that she was so tired, Su Qingliu sat aside and watched her with some heartache.
