MTL - Hot Farmer’s Wife: Buying a Husband for the Farm

   Chapter 365 365 Go to Nan'an County

  Lin Xiaoyue's eyes turned cold.

   "Step over." Then, he opened his mouth and said.

   Zhao Qiang was startled.

   Lin Yuanshan, who had his eyes closed on the ground, was also startled and opened his eyes instantly.

   Then, without waiting for Zhao Qiang to reply to Lin Xiaoyue, he quickly supported his body and crawled away.

   "Lin Xiaoyue, you bastard, you are so cruel!" While crawling, she cursed.

   Hearing that, Zhao Qiang was so angry that he wanted to get off the carriage and teach others a lesson.

  Lin Xiaoyue stopped him with her eyes.

   "Well scolded. Since I was scolded by you, if I don't do something, wouldn't I be scolded by you for nothing?" Lin Xiaoyue said, and looked at Lin Yuanshan coldly.

   "It's better to be careful recently, don't go to Qingshi Town." Then, he warned in a low voice.

   Immediately, before Lin Yuanshan could reply, Lin Xiaoyue looked at Zhao Qiang again.

   "Go." Shen said.

   Zhao Qiang hurried away.

   Lin Yuanshan was frightened by Lin Xiaoyue's demeanor and voice, and only recovered when Lin Xiaoyue's carriage was far away.

   Then, rushed to the carriage that Lin Xiaoyue left, and continued to curse loudly.

  In the carriage away, Lin Xiaoyue laughed instead of anger when she heard the curse.

   Zhao Shanshan looked at Lin Xiaoyue's expression and didn't dare to say a word.

   The young lady at the moment made her feel a little scary.

   After returning to Liu Mansion, Lin Xiaoyue had returned to her former appearance when she got off the carriage.

   His face was mild and his smiles continued, as if unpleasant things on the road had never happened at all.

   Zhao Shanshan was relieved when she saw this.

   But the next day, when she followed Lin Xiaoyue to Liu's house and heard Lin Xiaoyue's instructions to Li Jie, she was shocked.

  Because, she actually heard that the young lady asked Mr. Li to smash Lin Yuanshan's other leg.

   At this time, she also knew that the death of Lin Lanhua was also related to the young lady. Also, the broken leg of Lin Yuanshan was actually arranged by Mr. Li before.

   Knowing all this, Zhao Shanshan's eyes were filled with fear when she looked at Lin Xiaoyue.

  Lin Xiaoyue naturally found out, but said nothing in front of Li Jie.

   After Li Jie left, Zhao Shanshan poured tea for herself.

  Drinking tea at a suitable temperature, Lin Xiaoyue put down the tea cup and opened her mouth.

   "Think I'm cruel?" asked with a smile.

   Zhao Shanshan's body tensed instantly.

   "No, Shanshan doesn't dare." She hurriedly saluted Lin Xiaoyue.

  Lin Xiaoyue hooked her lips.

   "This is the first lesson you learned from Mr. Li. When doing business, sometimes you have to use some extraordinary means."

   Zhao Shanshan was taken aback.

  Lin Xiaoyue continued.

   "At that time, Young Master Liu was persuaded by Lin Lanhua and asked Mr. Li to find someone to make trouble."

   "After that, I was taught by Brother Hei and Xianggong's people. The troublemakers confessed to them."

   "Then, in order to resolve the incident. To calm the anger of Brother Hei and Xianggong, Mr. Li suggested that Young Master Liu get rid of Lin Lanhua and put the blame on Lin Lanhua."

   Zhao Shanshan stiffened again.

   Lin Xiaoyue brought the teacup to her lips again and took a sip of tea.

"And the reason why he suggested Liu Dashao is because he went to Dashi Village to inquire about the relationship between me and the Lin family immediately after the incident. I also know that Lin Lanhua brought Mrs. Lin to make trouble outside the Liu residence. thing."

   "He thought that because of my kinship, I couldn't do anything to the Lin family. So, he wanted to take this opportunity to sell my favor."

   "Hopefully, for the sake of this favor, I can let Young Master Liu go." Having said this, the corner of Lin Xiaoyue's mouth raised a smile again.

   Zhao Shanshan's mind followed, marveling at Li Jie's ideas and methods.

   "After that, I did accept his favor."

   "After all, when Lin Lanhua died at the time, even if the Liu family didn't take action, I was going to arrange for someone to do it afterwards. He saved me a thing."

   Zhao Shanshan's heart sank.

   I realized that my previous understanding of Miss was really superficial.

   "As for Lin Yuanshan, Mr. Li's shot at him was somewhat unexpected to me."

   "It was only after the fact that I learned that it was because of the husband's reminder."

   "Mr. Li accompanied Liu Dashao to see the husband and brother Hei on the same day. The husband reminded them that Lin Yuanshan was studying at Qingyun Academy, and he might entangle the Liu residence about Lin Lanhua."

   "It should be to eliminate future troubles... After that, Lin Yuanshan's leg was broken."

  Lin Yuanshan has broken his leg, and there is no hope for the imperial examination. With the Lin family's identity as a businessman, how can he still find trouble with the Liu family?

   Li Jie's handling in this way did not harm anyone's life. In fact, it was considered a proper handling.

   And knowing the cause of the incident, it is not surprising that she can guess who injured Lin Yuanshan.

   Zhao Shanshan was shocked.

  Lin Xiaoyue looked at Zhao Shanshan and put the teacup back on the table.

   "Shanshan—"

   Who knew that Zhao Shanshan's shoulders trembled just after shouting.

  Lin Xiaoyue frowned.

   "Go down..." Then, he said with a sigh.

   Zhao Shanshan was taken aback for a moment, then looked up at Lin Xiaoyue.

   saw Lin Xiaoyue wave at her, "Go." Said with some disappointment.

   Zhao Shanshan panicked.

   Before Lin Xiaoyue looked impatient, she finally answered "yes".

   withdrew.

  Lin Xiaoyue waited for Zhao Shanshan to go out, and then closed the door, a look of disappointment appeared on her face.

   She is all about cultivating Shanshan, but this girl has limited knowledge and experience, can she really live up to her expectations?

  Perhaps, it would be more suitable to let her stay in Liu Mansion and be a carefree little maid.

   After going out, Zhao Shanshan already felt Lin Xiaoyue's change in her emotions.

   After suppressing the chaotic and fearful emotions in his heart, he settled down, and then went to Li Jie.

  Lin Xiaoyue doesn't know yet, this little girl has decided to endure the fear and discomfort and go to study with Li Jie.

  This girl is much stronger and firmer than Lin Xiaoyue thought.

   The next day.

  The Liu family's two carriages set off early in the morning for Nan'an County.

  In the first carriage, there were Lin Xiaoyue, Li Xiao and Xiao Qing, and Fan Teng driving the carriage.

   In the second carriage, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Ma sat, and Henry Zhang drove the carriage.

  The carriage swayed all the way. After Shangguan Road, it went to Nan'an County.

  Because we started early and the road along the way was smooth, we arrived at Nan'an County at noon.

   As soon as we got to the gate of the city, someone came to pick them up.

  Fan Teng got in touch with the other party, then drove the carriage and followed the people to the snack workshop in Nan'an County.

When    arrived, Lin Xiaoyue discovered that the snack workshop turned out to be a rather large house.

  Although the location is not in a prosperous area, it is only one street away from the most prosperous street in Nan'an County.

  The front yard of the house was renovated and converted into a workshop.

  The two courtyards in the middle, one is where the workers live, and the other is going to be used as an office in Nan'an County.

   As for the backyard, it is far away from the front yard and is quieter.

   was specially set aside by Zhao Shanshan and others at that time to temporarily stay for important people.

   The group just arrived in the backyard, ready to settle down.

   But suddenly someone came to report that someone from the Anyang Palace was here.

  Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao went to the backyard hall to meet them.

   The person who came was actually the housekeeper of the Anyang Prince's Mansion. He came to the door in person and said that he had been ordered by the Anyang Prince and Anyang Princess to invite the Liu family and his party to live in the Anyang Prince's Mansion.

   Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao looked at each other and discussed, and then came down.

  Please wait a moment for the housekeeper to inform Liu Shi and others of the news.

   Then, he took his family and followed the housekeeper to the Anyang Palace.

   As soon as he entered the palace, King Anyang appeared with Princess Anyang.

   Welcome to Lin Xiaoyue and others.

  Especially Princess Anyang, who was very intimate with Lin Xiaoyue and Liu Shi.

  Just like this, the group stayed in the side courtyard of the Anyang Palace.

   As soon as he settled in, Li Xiao was called away by King Anyang.

   Lin Xiaoyue and Liu Shi, accompanied by Princess Anyang, enjoyed flowers and tea in the backyard.

   Then it was another game of mahjong.

  The next day, after learning that Xiao Qing was going to take the government exam, he even took a group to the Gongyuan and stepped on it in advance.

   Afterwards, he led the crowd to stroll around the streets of Nan'an County.

   Only then did Lin Xiaoyue know that this person knew better than her and was able to get to the locations of the chain stores faster.

   Also, he was even more attentive than her.

   "These chain stores in Nan'an County, the lord said, leave them all to me to take care of." Princess Anyang suddenly said to Lin Xiaoyue.

   "I am now, waiting for your side to be ready, and then open for business." He said with excitement in his eyes.

  Lin Xiaoyue was slightly surprised, but then quickly put away her surprise.

   The chain store in Nan'an County, she can't remember who was assigned to, but she is sure that it is not the king of Anyang.

   However, with the identity of the King of Anyang, it is not difficult to change these chain stores.

   "I can't wait long. The peppers have been fruiting for a while, and in seven or eight days, they should be ready to pick."

   "At that time, the chain stores that have been opened everywhere will be able to open simultaneously." Lin Xiaoyue smiled.

   The training of the chain store waiters and the manpower preparation of the snack workshops have almost been arranged, and the opening time should not be affected by then.

   In fact, not only the chain store owners were anxiously waiting, but she was also anxious.

   Since the return of the Chiwu Army, she has been spending money.

  The food and drink of the Chiwu Army, as well as Zhuangzi's raising of seedlings, construction, and the investment of livestock and cubs these days, almost emptied her family.

   If it weren't for the two snack bars in Qingshi Town, selling braised pork, and a bacon sausage workshop, she would have run out of money long ago.

   However, the hard days should be coming to an end soon.

When    peppers are produced, each chain store can open.

   At that time, all her stores and snack workshops will be profitable.

   Coupled with the simultaneous start of the chili workshop and the simultaneous production of spicy cabbage, bean paste and chili sauce, her current predicament of making ends meet should be eased soon.

   Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoyue felt a little more relaxed, and a smile appeared on her face.

   "It's so good! I'm in the house every day, and I don't have much to do except eat tea and play cards."

   "When the chain store opens, I'll be able to follow suit."

   "And..." Princess Anyang looked at Lin Xiaoyue with some playfulness.

   "My lord and I, we miss your fast-flavored spicy skewers. And that braised pork!"

   Having said this, Princess Anyang's eyes lit up.

   "I heard from Brother Yu that you have already agreed to exclusively supply braised pork, sausages and bacon for Liang's restaurant?"

  Liujia's delicious food is not only like spicy skewers, but also braised pork, sausage and bacon!

  Sausages and bacon, since Dong Lin supplied them to the Liang family, the palace also got some. They are not lacking right now.

   is braised pork, which has a short shelf life.

   Even she and the prince can only occasionally send some to the Ruyi Building in Qingshi Town, but they can't eat it every day.

  The situation will be different when the Shangde Kuai Snack Workshop in Nan'an County opens.

   At that time, the snack workshop will not only prepare snacks such as spicy skewers for the various Shangkuai chain stores in Nan'an County, but also prepare braised pork for Liang's restaurants.

  It would be much more convenient for them to eat braised pork.

   "Yes." Lin Xiaoyue replied with a smile.

   "Because the shelf life of braised pork is not long enough, it was arranged to be made in the snack workshops of the directly-operated stores."

   "As for bacon and sausage."

   "At present, the workers are not skilled enough, and Liang's side has just opened the market. Right now, the production speed is still relatively slow."

   In fact, it was because she really had no money in her hands, which restricted the development of the bacon sausage workshop.

   After all, Liang will only pay her when she picks up the goods.

   She has to bear the cost of purchasing pork in the early stage, and after the bacon is prepared, it can be delivered after at least ten days of drying.

   In other words, she had at least ten days' worth of inventory in her hands.

   If this is rashly increased production, the cost will be more.

   In addition, live pigs in Qingshi are limited.

   Even if she wants to increase the investment in the bacon sausage workshop, it is not so easy when live pigs are becoming more and more difficult to buy.

  Fortunately, Li Xiao had already asked someone for help, got in touch with several big pig farmers in Taohua Town, and ordered several batches of live pigs.

   Now, her bacon sausage workshop is running normally.

   But this is not the long-term solution after all.

   In the future, the bacon workshop will have to rely on them to solve the source of live pigs.

   Twelve villages, all of which had to raise pigs.

   Also, we have to contact some pig farms outside for long-term cooperation.

  In this way, the sausage bacon workshop can develop and grow.

   "Then we must hurry up and make the workers skilled. Brother Yu mentioned to us before that the dishes made with sausages and bacon are very popular after they are served in various restaurants."

   "Because the quantity is too small, there is no way to make all the restaurants in the Liang family serve these dishes." Princess Anyang said.

   Lin Xiaoyue raised a smile in her eyes.

   "In this case, we really have to increase the output quickly." He replied.

  Is the response from Liang's side very good?

  Liang Yu didn't reveal this news to her. He didn't even ask her to ask her for additional orders.

   Of course, she hasn't finished his first order yet.

   However, after that, if Liang Yu asked her to place an order again, she could ask him for some deposit.

   In addition, on the Zhou side, maybe we can get in touch and distribute some sausages and bacon.

   After all, I'm afraid that eggs will be easily broken if they are placed in one basket.

  Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoyue looked at Princess Anyang more friendly.

   It's a loss, Young Master Liang's sister, remind her.

   At this time, Liang Yu, who was still busy in Liang Mansion, sneezed.

   Worrying about whether he has contracted the cold.
