If you keep making noise, I won’t stand it anymore!

"Uncle village chief, there are four things I need your help with." Meixiang saw Sun Shao and the manager pointing at her, and she lightly mentioned what they had agreed on on the way back yesterday.

"Okay, tell me, tell me." The village chief tried hard to control his excitement and listened to Meixiang carefully.

"First, we want to build the workshop near Liu's house, and the area should be as large as possible; second, we want to rent the mountain land beside the stream behind the village to plant trees and herbs; third, please help us recruit some workers to build the workshop as soon as possible, and also find 20 dyeing helpers first." When we discussed it yesterday, we finally chose the location for building the workshop next to Liu's house, because the dyeing materials are plants and there is no pollution in the process. The residue from boiling can also be made into fertilizer for making herbal medicine. Moreover, it is close to Liu's house and at the entrance of the village, so it is convenient for management and transportation.

"Also, I have a personal matter that I would like to ask for your help. You see, my family is growing in number, and there may be more in the future. I have to expand this house. And I want to try to grow some herbs. We can discuss the money, what do you think?"

Now it was Village Chief Liu's turn to be surprised. He thought that they would just build a northern courtyard of the Liu Mansion. The Liu Mansion was so big, but he didn't expect that they would also rent out the back mountain. This was not something he could decide on his own. "Miss Mei, I can't decide on such a big thing alone. I'll go back and discuss it with a few elders and then get back to you. Is it feasible? Also, how many years do you plan to rent out the back mountain?"

"Let's lease it for 30 years first, and then renew it depending on the situation." Sun Shao looked at Village Chief Liu and said.

Upon hearing this, Village Chief Liu could no longer sit still. He did not dare to stay any longer and quickly stood up to gather the elders to discuss the matter.

Meixiang persuaded the beautiful woman to leave the house, and the group walked around the Liu Mansion twice to decide on the planning and construction of the workshop and the Liu Mansion. Meixiang did not participate too much in the workshop, which was not her specialty. In addition to raising some environmental protection requirements for wastewater and residues, she did not participate in it further based on the principle of "leave professional matters to professionals".

She focused all her energy on the expansion of the Mei Mansion. Although she liked Liujia Village very much, she knew in her heart that her final destination would be the capital city thousands of miles away. Therefore, the Liu Mansion did not need to be built too large for the time being, as long as there was enough space for expansion. She did not like the architectural style of several entrances that Haoyue had continued, which always gave people a deep sense of depression in the courtyard.

Meixiang prefers the modern Beijing courtyard style in her heart. Living in a large courtyard is both lively and safe. So she decided to keep her mother's main house in the north courtyard intact, and the east gate and the two sycamore trees that Nanny Chen said were specially transplanted by her stepfather. She expanded the rest of the house outwards.

It’s just that imagination is beautiful but reality is meaningless. “Oh!” Meixiang couldn’t help but sigh deeply.

"Oh, why is our capable young lady sighing?" Nanny Chen couldn't help but joked as she looked at Meixiang's little face, which was constantly changing with expressions that were sometimes longing and sometimes conflicted.

Meixiang looked at the crowd who were full of gloating and mocking, and decisively gave up making things difficult for herself: "It's always a penny that makes a hero fall."

Everyone was really stunned now. Why was a ten-year-old kid struggling for so long just because of this?

"a ha ha ha......"

“Tsk, hahaha…”

Everyone couldn't hold back their laughter any longer and Meixiang's face turned red.

Young Master Sun tried to hold back his smile and said to Meixiang, "Miss Mei, this is 10,000 taels. Take it first. If it's not enough, tell Uncle Sun." He winked at Steward Sun, who took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Meixiang.

Nanny Chen also took out a piece of paper and handed it to Meixiang: "Young Miss, this is also 10,000 taels. Take it first. If you need it, tell me to get it for you."

Now it was Meixiang's turn to be stunned. How could she become a wealthy woman in such a short time? She flipped through the two pieces of paper in her hand, shaking them: "When did the ten thousand taels of silver notes become so worthless? Each of you is paying ten thousand taels, ten thousand taels!"

Everyone couldn't hold back their laughter, and the beautiful woman even stood up, tapped Meixiang's forehead and called her a "little idiot".

After studying the two ten thousand tael silver notes in her hand, Meixiang straightened her body and said to Young Master Sun and the beautiful woman, "Young Master Sun, I will accept this silver note from mother without hesitation. Young Master Sun can deduct it from the future dividends. If there is no profit, I will find other ways to pay it back to you. The same goes for mother's."

"You're welcome to take it. I can still afford this little money from my own pocket." Sun Shao refused directly.

"I appreciate Mr. Sun's kindness, but brothers should settle accounts clearly and make things separate. Otherwise, I cannot accept this banknote." Meixiang insisted on her principles. The most feared thing between friends and partners is that they may be entangled in money. There are countless cases of brothers falling out over a few cents.

Seeing that Meixiang was so persistent, Young Master Sun and the beautiful woman did not dwell on it any further and followed Meixiang's wishes.

At this time, Village Chief Liu came trotting into the Liu Mansion again with an old man of similar age. Meixiang saw that the two were sweating profusely due to their haste to get on the road, and hurriedly asked them to sit down. Nanny and Aunt Li made tea and brought warm towels to wipe their faces.

Village Chief Liu wiped his face hastily and said without caring about anything else: "This is Liu Sheng, the elder of the Liu clan. The elders agreed to what we discussed this morning."

After Liu Sheng exchanged greetings with everyone, he said, "It's just a matter. Several elders asked me to discuss it with Young Master Sun. The back mountain is where the villagers' ancestors collected firewood and occasionally dug herbs. Young Master Sun, can you reserve a piece of it for everyone in the early stage? We will find a way to rent it to you when there is a real need later."

"That's not a problem. I just didn't explain it clearly to the village chief at the beginning. We can rent a piece of land near the inner circle for trial planting in the early stage, and then make a decision based on the results of the trial planting. But don't worry, we will never affect the normal lives of the villagers." Sun Shao added after looking at Meixiang after listening to this.

After hearing this, Village Chief Liu and the other man sighed, "That would be the best. If there are no other questions, we can discuss the details."

The village could not refuse such a great opportunity. Young Master Sun took a fancy to the frozen green and dragon blood trees as well as the market behind them. The village gave great convenience in land planning. With Liu's Mansion and the area opposite Liu's Mansion as the boundary, no other personnel would be arranged to use the land to the south without the approval of Liu's Mansion. As for the use of the land, normal procedures would be carried out as long as the safety of the villagers was not endangered.

Sun Shao and Mei Xiang are also easy-going and generous people. They offered very fair prices. Both parties in the village were very satisfied with the cooperation this time.
