After lunch, Lin Xiaoxue wiped her hands, stood in the yard and took a deep breath.

She turned to Father Lu and her eldest brother Lu Jingshu and said, "Then shall we go to the village chief's house and ask about the land?"

Father Lu nodded in agreement and even changed into a clean and tidy shirt.

"Look more presentable," he said with a smile.

The three of them walked out of the house side by side and crossed the dusty village road.

At this time, the sun was shining brightly, casting warm light and shadows on the yellow mud walls.

Although most of the houses in the village are simple huts made of adobe bricks, hope shines in the eyes of the villagers whenever they talk about how the Lu family workshop has driven the development of the entire village.

Soon they arrived at one of the few red brick and tile houses in the village.

This is the village chief’s house, which is in stark contrast to the surrounding simple residences.

"Ah! Brother Lu, Xiaoxue!" Seeing the Lu family coming, the village chief greeted them with a big smile on his face, "Please come in, please come in!"

As he spoke, he led the way into the living room and personally poured tea for everyone.

"Why did you think of coming to sit with me today?"

You know, the Lu family is too busy, and he rarely gets to say a few words when he passes by.

Lin Xiaoxue smiled slightly: "Village Chief Yang, we want to discuss with you about buying land and building a factory."

Hearing this, the village chief became even more enthusiastic: "Oh! You want to expand the workshop? That's great! Xiaoxue, you are really capable!"

He nodded repeatedly, "Old Lu! You must have such a daughter-in-law! Your ancestors have done a lot of good things for you! If you have any questions, just ask."

Lin Xiaoxue was filled with emotion: If she could successfully expand the factory and help the whole village become rich, it would be one of her greatest merits.

"We plan to choose a location closer to the existing workshop." Lu Jingshu interrupted, "It will be easier to manage and transport goods."

"Okay, okay!" The village chief made the decision and picked up the measuring tools in the house: "I know a few suitable locations to choose from. I'll take you to have a look."

The village chief led the Lu family there, thinking about it in his mind.

The Lu family workshop is truly the famous golden hen in the village, as it built the factory in just a few months.

When he thought that the completion of this factory would enable more villagers to find jobs, his heart that was dedicated to the welfare of the entire village was filled with a heavy sense of accomplishment.

"Old Lu, your Xiaoxue is really a capable person from our village!" The village chief couldn't help but praise as they walked. "Last month when I went to the township for a meeting, our whole village was praised! If your factory is built, it will really bring glory to the whole village."

Lu Jingshu and Lin Xiaoxue smiled at each other, their eyes flashing with longing for the future factory.

Father Lu was an experienced person, and he said a lot of polite words: "How could that be possible? It also depends on the support of the village chief, otherwise it wouldn't be so smooth."

This is the truth. Those who had previously criticized the Lu family workshop were all given ideological education by the village chief.

The village chief smiled and said, "Don't worry, I fully support your Lu family's factory. If there is anything I can help with, just let me know."

Soon, they came to an open space near the village entrance.

"Take a look." The village chief pointed to several plots of land of different sizes. "You can choose any of these."

But in Lin Xiaoxue's eyes, every piece of land seemed cramped.

After a brief discussion, although it was a little over budget, Lin Xiaoxue still made a decisive decision: "We will choose that piece of land, which is located at the entrance of the village, has a large enough area, convenient transportation, and is close to where our Lu family lives."

The village chief was a little surprised. "You want all that land? If we use it to build houses, we can build at least a dozen!"

"That's right." Lin Xiaoxue answered affirmatively: "The factory I'm building will occupy about 200 square meters."

From a long-term perspective, we have to build bigger, after all, the variety of food will continue to increase.

Moreover, the business will cover towns in the future, so the factory building cannot be too shabby, otherwise it will be difficult for others to be attracted by it when they come to inspect it.

This is the facade.

Lin Xiaoxue thought that this was far beyond the budget. The land alone would probably cost tens of thousands.

It's true that money is only spent when it is used.

Anyway, it will take two months to build a factory. During this time, I can accumulate a lot of money and I can definitely sustain it.

Hearing this, the village chief was stunned for a moment.

Then his eyes showed excitement and excitement. This factory was even more spectacular than he expected and was enough to change the fate of the entire village.

"Okay, I'll do as you say. I'll measure and register for you."

He quickly took out his measuring tools and began to measure the land area.

My hands started to shake because I was so overwhelmed with excitement that I couldn't control myself.

"Hold on!" He signaled himself to adjust the size repeatedly until it was accurate.

After the measurement was completed, Village Chief Yang Ming immediately asked Lin Xiaoxue to fill out a written application.

"After the brigade stamps the document, we'll go to the town to submit the application. Once it's approved, we can start building the factory right away!"

Lin Xiaoxue took the pen and the note and filled in the information fluently.

The village chief smiled and took the application form and hurried to the brigade office.

In this small village in the 1980s, the process was simple but had to be followed step by step.

But for the Lu family, everything went smoothly.

"Xiaoxue, let me take you to the town." The village chief offered enthusiastically, "I'm familiar with the procedures there and can help you get it done quickly."

Lin Xiaoxue smiled slightly: "Thank you for your concern, Village Chief, but I have already asked about these procedures, and I can handle them myself."

After all, she had run many factories in her previous life, so these were easy tasks for her.

Seeing how confident she was, the village chief did not insist.

"Okay, okay, okay! If you need any help, just let me know." He turned around and called his son who was resting at home: "Go, drive the tractor out and take Xiaoxue to town."

Yes, there are only two families in the village that have tractors, and one of them is the village chief’s family.

When Lin Xiaoxue boarded the tractor, she heard the village chief tell her, "Drive carefully!"

"Got it, Dad."

As the roar of the tractor faded away, Father Lu and Lu Jingshu were preparing to go home.

They had only taken a few steps when they were surrounded by villagers who had been watching for a long time.

"Old Lu!" a spirited middle-aged man asked, "I heard your family is going to build a factory?"

Someone immediately responded, "This is not just hearsay! Village Chief Yang just confirmed it himself."

Father Lu nodded and smiled: "Yes, yes, we do want to build a factory."

"That's great." Another young man interrupted excitedly, "When they need cement workers, carpenters and the like, they will give priority to people from our village, right?"

"Of course!" Father Lu said firmly and proudly, "Our Lu family has always been thinking about the common development and prosperity of all our fellow villagers."

At the same time, Lin Xiaoxue arrived in the town and completed the procedures very smoothly.

The documents were quickly stamped and the land use rights certificate was obtained after payment.

Looking at the freshly acquired piece of land in her hand that cost her ten thousand yuan, a hint of determination flashed in Lin Xiaoxue's eyes.

"Cash flow is tight..." She calculated the accounts secretly.

Suddenly, an idea struck her.

Some time ago, an old customer who frequently placed orders expressed willingness to cooperate and even gave her her address, asking her to visit her when she was free to talk.

Look, I was so busy that I almost forgot about it.
