Su Binglan left the shop renovation entirely to her uncle and gave him enough silver to do it.

Su Zhengde looked at the money and said, “We don’t need that much.”

“I’ve done the calculations, Uncle Zhengde. That isn’t much silver, especially since the money you receive from others is more than this. I consider this amount too little. You can’t charge me less than you would others, Uncle

Zhengde.”

Since Su Binglan said so, Su Zhengde had no choice but to accept the money.

Su Binglan told her family about the follow-up to the hotpot restaurant during dinner. The family typically discussed these things together, after all.

After some thought, Su Binglan said, “We’ll need a lot of charcoal, pork, mutton, and vegetables when we open this restaurant. We’ll be busier than ever when that time comes, so it would be best if one of us were responsible for buying what we need.”

Su Fengmao said, “The charcoal shouldn’t be a problem since your third uncle is making more. He said he was planning to make and sell more charcoal when he was busy harvesting. After all, winter is nearby. Nonetheless, Fengzhi is selling his charcoal at low prices.

“Fengzhi said he’s selling the charcoal cheaper since you taught him how to make it, and he has benefitted from his barbecued lamb skewers. The villagers can afford more charcoal to keep themselves warm during the winter. We can buy charcoal from Fengzhi, so that’s not a problem.”

Su Binglan’s expression changed. She did not expect her third uncle to be such a passionate person. She also felt it was better to have charcoal at a lower price so the villagers could afford it.

The price of charcoal in the market was too high. In the past, everyone was reluctant to burn charcoal during the winter. Instead, they would burn more firewood.

However, the air would remain cold while their beds were warm. Also, firewood would not last as long as charcoal, which could keep the villagers warmer for longer.

Ads by Pubfuture Su Binglan nodded. “Okay, you can talk to Uncle Fengzhi about it, Father.”

Su Wenwu saw everyone discussing and hurriedly added, “Binglan, I can do something too.”

Su Binglan said, “Don’t worry, Third Brother. I still need your help with many things. ”

She noticed everyone’s enthusiasm and felt like they were not opening a shop but doing something much more enjoyable. Everyone was eager to participate, and this enthusiasm made Su Binglan laugh. She was willing to do many things with such a family.

Su Wenwu said anxiously, “Quick, tell me what I can do, Binglan. I will make arrangements immediately!”

He only realized what changes had happened in the family and the village when he returned from the capital. Initially, he found it hard to believe. He felt like he was dreaming during his first few days after finally returning home. He thought everything he saw was just an illusion.

Su Wenwu only realized everything was real after bringing home their rice harvest. Indeed, his family’s conditions had improved, and it was beyond his imagination. No wonder his mother was much calmer when she received the two silver taels from him.

Even Su Wenwu was calmer when he saw two taels of silver now. After all, his sister paid Lin Zheng, Li Shi, and Zhou Shan to work at her shop, which did not even include bonuses.

Sometimes, Su Binglan would pay more than one silver tael in bonus, primarily if they worked well.

Su Wenwu was envious of the trio as he saw how excited they were when he went to help in the shop once. The trio looked at Su Binglan with gratitude, and Su Wenwu would too if he were that excited.

Nonetheless, Su Wenwu knew he had to work with his sister because he could learn a lot and eat delicious food.

Su Wenxiu also wanted to work with his sister, but he was still determined to study medicine. After moving to the big house, he would grow herbs in the backyard. Then he could better understand the medicinal properties of each herb.

Moreover, he could sell the herbs he grew and earn money to contribute to the family. If his sister helped others, he wanted to help her. After learning medical skills, he could also treat patients and save people.

Su Wenxiu felt his life would be more meaningful if he could help others, especially after what he had experienced in the capital. He had many feelings about it and knew what he needed to do. @@novelbin@@

Ads by Pubfuture Su Binglan continued, “Since we’ve had hotpot before this, everyone should know what we need for the shop. We’ll have plenty of customers after opening the restaurant so we will need a lot of ingredients.

“Still, it’ll be a waste of time if we have to shop for ingredients daily. If we can negotiate with the local merchants and ask them to deliver the goods daily, we can save time and effort and do other things.”

Everyone thought Su Binglan’s ideas were perfect.

After some thought, Shen Qiuhua said, “You make a lot of sense, Binglan. Although we’re not as big as, let’s say, Drunken Cloud, I think it’s more convenient if we can ask others to deliver the goods to our restaurant.

“If others prepare and deliver the goods daily to us, it’ll be much more convenient. However, we need many things, so hopefully, several people will be willing to deliver what we need.

“We have plenty of vegetables now, but they won’t last us through the winter.

At most, we have radishes and cabbages.”

Su Binglan did not have to worry about vegetables since she had been growing them in her pocket dimension. The vegetable overgrew in her dimension, so she would have enough to last a long time.

Even so, she would not have enough if she planned to open a chain store in the future, so she had to think of other ways to grow vegetables in a greenhouse. Nonetheless, opening a store was enough for the time being.

Su Binglan said, “I have ways to grow enough vegetables. My main concern is pork, mutton, and chicken.”

Su Wenzhe thought about what he had eaten when he tried the hotpot. He remembered eating tofu, saying, “You don’t have to worry about tofu either, Binglan. Yinyin and I can prepare as much as you need.”

He did not care whether or not he could handle it because he felt his sister’s matter was more important. He knew he had to prioritize her needs.

Su Binglan looked at Su Wenzhe and said, “You can’t handle that much work, Big Brother.”

Liu Yinyin said smilingly, “It’s okay, Binglan. We can handle it. What’s most important is for you to open your hotpot restaurant.”

The whole family supported Su Binglan no matter what she did. Liu Yinyin was most grateful to Su Binglan when she thought about the changes in her family.

Liu Yinyin wanted to ensure her sister-in-law had enough tofu for her hotpot restaurant, even if it meant serving less haggis soup and sesame buns in her shop.

Su Binglan knew Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin genuinely wanted to help and that it would be impolite to refuse. Moreover, she needed to have tofu to increase the variety of ingredients in the hotpot. After all, tofu was also a delicious food source.

After pondering for a while, Su Binglan said, “Big Brother, Sister-in-law, you can open a tofu factory for yourselves since it’s called Su’s Tofu. You’ll have more time if you hire more people..”

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Wenzhe and his wife fell silent upon hearing Su Binglan’s words. Even Su Fengmao and his wife thought deeply because they knew how delicious, nutritious, and cheap tofu was. Most people could afford it too.

In addition, the family also made dried tofu, tofu skewers, tofu pudding, etc. However, they would need to grind a fixed amount of soybeans daily, and the number of tofu products they could make was limited.

The family could earn a lot of money if they made tofu all day. Still, they could not handle it if that were the case, mainly because there were many steps to making tofu.

Su Binglan and her family were the only ones who knew how to make tofu, but what if they hired people and taught them?

Everyone gave it some thought, but Shen Qiuhua voiced her doubts, “Binglan, that’s a good idea, but we can’t handle that much work. I know we can hire people, but I fear they will leak our tofu-making methods and start making it for themselves.’

Shen Qiuhua knew hiring someone would not cost much, but she did not want others to steal her family’s business.

Su Binglan said, “There are many steps to making tofu, so we can start an assembly line production if we hire people.”

“W-What’s ‘assembly line production?”‘ Liu Yinyin asked, resembling a curious child. She discovered a new term from her sister-in-law, but she asked about it since she did not understand it.

Su Binglan patiently explained, “It kind of means a person can only learn and master one step from the many of making tofu. For example, we must wash, cut, fry, and add seasoning when we cook, right?

“We can hire some people for washing, some for cutting, while the others are responsible for the first cooking process, and the remaining people will do the second.

“That means certain people are only responsible for one thing while not knowing the other processes of making our tofu. For instance, the person in charge of cutting tofu won’t know how to cook it even if we ask them to.”

Ads by Pubfuture Su Wenzhe quickly understood what his sister meant. He smiled and slapped his thigh. “Aha! Why didn’t I think of that?! We can hire a few people to soak the soybeans and some to grind them. Everyone will be limited to mastering one step but won’t know or see the other steps.”

Su Binglan said smilingly, “Yes, then the core methods will still be in our hands. Hence, we need reliable people to do only one step.”

Su Fengmao thought about it, looked at Su Binglan, and then said, “There’s a place in town where one can sell or purchase enslaved people. We won’t have to worry about them betraying us if we have a contract, but they must be expensive. One person could cost more than a dozen silver taels.”

Su Binglan looked into her father’s eyes and suddenly remembered that her family had purchased Luo Jin’an from the town. However, he was not expensive because he had a scar on his face.

Su Binglan fell silent when she heard her father’s words and decided she did not want to purchase enslaved people. Still, this was how things were in this prn

She said, “We can just hire the village. Then they can earn extra money and have a better Chinese New Year. If so, they also need to sign a confidentiality agreement.”

Unbeknownst to the other family members, Su Binglan knew this method was not as safe as she said. She felt others would figure out how to make tofu in a few years. After all, people could learn things, and she thought the Su family could not be the only ones to run a tofu business.

Shen Qiuhua nodded and said, “All right, we’ll do whatever you suggest, Binglan. ”

Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin also nodded.

Liu Yinyin said thoughtfully, “I think what Binglan said makes sense. If we think about it from a broader perspective, we can open up the tofu factory and hire more people to make our products indefinitely, and then we might earn a year’s worth of money in a month.

“That way, we don’t have to be afraid of others learning our trade. We can earn more than we need if the tofu factory is big enough. Also, we can relax a little and do something else since your parents can find the time.”

Su Binglan looked at Liu Yinyin admiringly. She knew her sister-in-law was intelligent since Liu Yinyin always thought long-term.

Su Wenzhe also had a sudden realization as his eyes lit up. “Yeah, it’s better that way! Then let’s hurry up and open a tofu factory!”

Shen Qiuhua knew the family had a lot of work to do if they genuinely wanted to open a tofu factory. “Hmm, where should we open the factory? How big should it be?” @@novelbin@@

Ads by Pubfuture Su Binglan said, “We’ll open it in the village. Didn’t we buy a large plot of land in the back? We can’t fill up that much land to build another house, even if it has a massive courtyard.

“I initially planned to enclose some of that land, but now I feel it’s just suitable for building a large tofu factory. We can hire the villagers because it’ll be more convenient for them to go to work and go home to rest.”

Shen Qiuhua sighed and said, “Everyone will be thrilled when they find out about this.”

Su Fengmao added, “That’s right. Since the autumn harvest is over, the villagers have ample free time. It’s already hard to find a job in town, but everyone will be delighted if we can provide jobs in the village.”

He could even imagine what it would be like after opening the factory. Su Wenxiu grinned and said, “You’re always helping others, Binglan.”

Su Binglan said, “It’s called a win-win situation. I only thought of opening a tofu factory in the village because it’s close by, making it more convenient for the villagers. Father and Mother won’t have to go to town since they can keep an eye on the factory.

“Then Big Brother and Sister-in-law can set up their shop without worry, and if anyone needs tofu products, we can send them to town.”

Su Wenzhe said happily, “That’s a good relationship to have. In the past, Drunken Cloud’s owner wanted to order tofu from us, but we didn’t have enough. If we open a big tofu factory, we can finally supply some to Drunken

Cloud. ”

Liu Yinyin nodded. “That’s right. Many people tried making a deal with us about getting more tofu, but we had no choice but to disagree. The factory idea is perfect since we can make more and sell them to whoever wants to strike a deal with us.”

Shen Qiuhua looked at Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin, saying, “You two won’t have to worry about spending silver since you made a lot of money in the past. I saved it, so you can open a big tofu factory.”

Su Wenzhe’s blood immediately started boiling as he could not wait to open the factory as quickly as possible.

“Little Sister, can you help me draw the blueprints? I want to know what you think is the best way to build a tofu factory.” Su Wenzhe trusted his sister the most.

Su Binglan said, “Okay, I’ll come up with the blueprints, but you can ask Uncle

Zhengde and his construction team to help build it.”

Su Zhengde had many people working for him currently, and most had some experience building houses. After all, many wanted to work for Su Zhengde. He even had two or three teams under him now.

Su Fengmao thought of something and said, “Don’t get ahead of yourselves, everyone. We need to move into the big house tomorrow..”

Su Fengmao patted the table, his eyes filled with eagerness because he and his family were about to live in a new, big house.

Su Binglan had gone to look around in the new house, and Su Zhengde had slightly modified a few places. Hence, delaying the house’s building process. Moreover, the house was expansive and required a lot of furniture.

Initially, the furniture was ready in advance, and the family had moved them in, but Su Binglan said she wanted to let some air in before their big move. Although no one understood why Su Binglan did that, they listened to her and decided to move in a day later.

Su Fengmao kept track of the time and reminded everyone that they were moving into the new house tomorrow. Everyone stopped talking about the factory when they heard they were moving the following day.

“Oh, right, we’re moving in tomorrow. I almost forgot about that.” Su Wenwu was the first to react. He was the most excited and active when he thought of living in a big house and having a big room to himself.

Shen Qiuhua smiled. “I’ve been so busy for the past few days that I almost forgot about it.”

Indeed, she had been swamped recently, but being busy made her feel at ease since she had more money. She even ate and slept well.

Liu Yinyin’s eyes were sparkling. “Binglan even got me a dressing table, but I haven’t gone to look at it.”

Su Binglan said the dressing table had drawers and cabinets in which Liu Yinyin could put things she used daily. For example, things like combs, makeup, and cosmetics.

Liu Yinyin did not have many things. She only had a box of ordinary makeup and stuff like wooden hairpins and combs. Even though she did not have much, Liu Yinyin still liked having a dressing table.

She imagined putting more things in her dressing table cabinets and drawers, as she could remove and use them daily.

Their house now felt crowded, and Liu Yinyin could only put some of her things in the cupboard. Fortunately, she did not have many clothes and could fit them all in.

Ads by Pubfuture However, the new house had separate yards and rooms with heated platforms and beds. Su Binglan said they could sleep on the heated platform during the winter and on the bed when it was hot during the summer. They also had several cupboards to store many things.

The most important thing about the new house was its many yards and rooms, so Liu Yinyin’s sons could stay there even when they married. Nonetheless, the family would be harmonious and united, making Liu Yinyin happy. “Time flies, huh? I didn’t expect to move into the big house so soon.”

“Yeah, our family just keeps improving.”

Su Wenzhe thought of his children having their own rooms. Then he would not have to share one and sleep on a brick bed again since it was too crowded. He used to be like that with his two brothers.

Therefore he was happy that his two sons would have their own rooms. Sure enough, Su Binglan was thoughtful.

Su Wenxiu did not have a strong concept of where to live since he had suffered in the capital. Still, he was satisfied when he returned because he felt content sleeping on a warm bed at home.

Nonetheless, he was thrilled that he could move into a big house with his family. Su Wenxiu realized he had grown dependent on his family because he felt safe with them.

He looked forward to planting medicinal herbs in the new house’s backyard the most since it was huge. His sister had bought all that land and surrounded it with a wall, so he would not have to worry about others stealing his medicinal herbs.

Su Wenxiu said, “I can also grow my medicinal herbs now.”

Even Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai were excited, especially Su Xuexuan. He wanted to live in the big house because Su Binglan said there would be a special study room. He could read and study there, so he was delighted.

Su Xuexuan was only four years old and had a lot of fun whenever he got home from school.

Su Binglan could feel how excited everyone was and could not help but laugh. She was a beautiful young lady, predominantly when she laughed. Everyone thought she looked adorable.

All the Su family members were good-looking, especially since Su Binglan had been adding spiritual spring water to the house water tank. The family drank it daily, causing their skin and mental states to improve.

Even the white hair on Shen Qiuhua’s head became less, and her skin was much more delicate, making her look much younger. Since everyone was together daily, none of them noticed these changes.

Ads by Pubfuture However, Su Wenwu noticed that his parents looked younger when he finally returned home. Even his brothers looked better.

After discussing the matter of moving, Su Binglan said, “Let’s continue talking about the tofu factory and the hotpot restaurant.”

Shen Qiuhua said, “Yes, let’s talk about the restaurant first. After all, we could afford that big house because we made money from doing well with our businesses. Still, we can’t forget our roots even if we have that big house.” Su Wenzhe hurriedly said, “Don’t worry, Mother. We know that.”

Su Wenxiu added, “Mother, I’ve been studying medicine at Hundred Herb Hospital, and Doctor Wu has been enthusiastic about teaching and guiding me.”

Su Wenwu said, “I’ll also do my best, Mother. I’ll go and help Binglan since she’s opening a hotpot restaurant.”

Shen Qiuhua nodded in satisfaction. “Yes, I know you three will work hard. I’m just afraid that you might get arrogant. No matter what, you must always stay grounded.

“The three of you must work hard to live good lives and never be lazy. Don’t think I’m lecturing you because it’s for your sake.” Shen Qiuhua knew her three sons well, but she wanted to remind them to be humble.

“We don’t think you’re lecturing us, Mother. We know you’re saying those things for our good,” Su Wenzhe expressed his stance with his two younger siblings.

Su Wenxiu and Su Wenwu nodded in unison. “Big Brother is right, Mother.” @@novelbin@@

Everyone ate their fill while talking. Then the family cleared the dishes together before sitting on the brick bed again.

At that moment, Shen Qiuhua took a basket and placed it beside the brick bed. Afterward, she poured the corn cobs onto the bed. If the family slept late, they would do farm work and talk.

“Let’s peel the corn and prepare the noodles so we can put them aside.”

Everyone sat on the brick bed and started to work. Su Binglan wanted to help, but everyone agreed to let her rest. The family could not bear to let Su Binglan do these things.

Su Binglan said, “I’m not tired. Besides, I’ve already gone to work in the fields in the morning, so peeling corn is nothing.”

Shen Qiuhua’s heart ached for her daughter. She said, “Peeling too much corn will hurt your hands. You still have many things to do and can’t afford to exhaust yourself.”

“Mother is right, Binglan. You should rest.”

Su Binglan knew that peeling chestnuts, corn, and rice relied on manual labor in this era. Indeed, after working too much, her hands would hurt. Everyone felt sorry for her, but she also felt sorry for them.

Still, Su Binglan insisted on helping. “Don’t worry. I’ll just do a little bit of work. I won’t exhaust myself. Besides, I won’t feel at ease if I don’t do anything while you’re all laboring away. Let’s work together as a family so we can afford more food and clothing..”

Su Fengmao took the iron skewer and stabbed it through the middle of the corn cobs to make it easier for everyone to peel the husk. He also agreed with his daughter, “We will have enough food and clothing if the whole family works together. ”

Su Xuexuan blinked and said, “Grandpa, our teacher said that a harmonious home brings prosperity to all things.”

When Su Fengmao heard this, he was so happy that he almost stabbed his hand with the iron skewer. “Yes, that’s the truth, Xuexuan. As expected of my precious grandson, you’re so knowledgeable.”

Su Xuexuan smiled shyly after his grandfather praised him.

Su Binglan could see how much Su Xuexuan enjoyed reading and studying. She knew he would be a brilliant man when he grew up.

However, she could not figure out what Su Xuehai liked, so she thought of letting him study at the academy alongside his brother for the time being.

Liu Yinyin started to think seriously about opening a big tofu factory. She thought of a key problem and asked, “Binglan, we always pick soybeans from the mountain. Although there are plenty, there might not be enough for us to make tofu products when we open the factory.

“Besides, the villagers would also pick them if they knew there were soybeans in the back of the mountain. However, no one has discovered it since that place is remote.”

Even though there was not much food in the past, the family could rely on soybeans. When spring came, enough soybeans would grow, but now it seemed that the number of soybeans might not be enough.

Su Binglan also thought of this problem before, but she guessed that her family could not make much tofu or use that much.

There were many soybeans in the back of the mountain to last until next spring, and when the time came, they could plant more. If that were the case, the family would have enough to use in their factory.

However, the demand for soybeans was too high because the family was going to open a tofu factory.

Su Binglan pondered this problem when Su Wenxiu said, “We can only plant these things during spring, right?”

Ads by Pubfuture Shen Qiuhua disapproved and said, “I saw many soybeans in the back of the mountain, but it’s almost winter. Even though there are many, it’s not the right time to plant more.”

Su Fengmao sighed and said, “The weather is getting colder, so we can’t plant anything. ”

“Is it still possible to open a factory, or must we wait until spring? That’ll take a long time, so won’t it delay things?”

“The main thing is that Binglan wants to open her hotpot restaurant. She’ll need plenty of tofu products too.”

Su Fengmao did not think about opening a tofu factory before, so he did not mind it. He had just learned of the factory and got excited, but he felt disappointed after learning it was no longer possible. One could only imagine the sadness in hig heart

Since the weather was getting colder, the villagers knew it was impossible to plant anything because their crops would freeze when it snowed. Even if they planted seeds, it would be a waste of effort.

Everyone had experienced this in the past and no longer wasted their time. If that were not the case, no one would be idle after the autumn harvest if they could plant things. Instead, they would actively plant more.

After all, everyone hoped to harvest as much as possible from the fields. If it were not for Su Binglan, the family would not have known about soybeans and that they could make tofu out of them. @@novelbin@@

Now that the family thought about it, they felt it was magical. Although their family’s conditions had improved, soybeans held a special place in their hearts because it was the first thing that helped them earn money.

Therefore, the whole family wanted to run a big tofu factory so many more people could taste it and know how delicious it was. That would bring more happiness to the family.

Su Binglan knew soybeans had different sowing times depending on the weather. Still, the soybeans on the mountain might not survive if the family planted more during autumn.

However, if she planted the soybeans she had improved in her pocket dimension, Su Binglan believed they would survive the harsh weather.

Although it was still autumn, it was not too cold and suitable for sowing.

Moreover, Su Binglan knew she had to try. After some thought, she said, “Are

First Granduncle and the others asleep at this time?”

Ads by Pubfuture Su Fengmao suddenly felt energized. ‘Will my daughter pull off another miracle?’

He said in high spirits, “Don’t worry. Your first granduncle is the village chief, so he usually sleeps late. It’s just after dinner, so he must still be awake.”

Everyone looked at Su Binglan in unison as she said smilingly, “We should buy more land and grow soybeans.”

She peeled the corn in her hand and put the cobs into a stack as she spoke. She would use the cobs later to grind them into corn flour. After peeling the cobs, she could also dry them as firewood.

After all, the villagers were reluctant to waste anything as they would use whatever dried-up foliage from their crops as firewood.

Shen Qiuhua returned to her senses and said, “Our family has enough land,

Binglan. Do we still need more?”

Su Binglan replied, “Yes, we do. We built a house on one and encircled it with walls, but that’s for Wenxiu to grow his medicinal herbs. We could still use another large plot to build our tofu factory. Besides that, we need to reserve some of that land for later use.’

That piece of land would be enough for the family to build another factory or a dormitory for the employees.

“However, we don’t have enough land for our family to grow food crops. We need to grow more soybeans, right? If we grow too many, we’ll hire more people to make more tofu products,” Su Binglan continued.

Su Wenzhe’s blood boiled again. “Yes, we’ll do as you suggested, Binglan! Still, I feel you’re doing everything, so the tofu factory should belong to you. We’ll just help Binglan make it a reality.”

Su Wenzhe thought he and his wife barely did much since his sister arranged everything. After all, how could he have the nerve to ask his sister to help with everything?

Su Binglan did not care about these things, saying, “It’s nothing, Big Brother.” She was willing to help her family because they were sincere.

Liu Yinyin said thoughtfully, “We won’t feel at ease if we continue doing things like before, Binglan.”

She felt her consciousness was in turmoil. She could not sleep peacefully if she took advantage of her sister-in-law.

Everyone in the Su family was honest. Since Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua had spoken, they would follow Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin’s wishes. Nonetheless, everyone knew Su Binglan deserved all the credit.

If it were not for her, the family would not have known these things, let alone recognize soybeans and make tofu.

Su Wenzhe and his wife easily felt satisfied because they sold haggis soup and other things in their shop, and business was excellent. Moreover, Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai would not have been able to attend school if it were not for Su Binglan.

Su Wenzhe, his wife, and his sons knew they could not be greedy..

Su Binglan felt helpless since everyone insisted. However, she could not take back the fact that she had taught her brother and sister-in-law how to make tofu.

She argued, “You don’t have to feel bad, Big Brother. I’ve said it before. It’s better to teach someone how to fish than to give it to them. I only hope that our family can live good lives.

“That tofu factory belongs to Big Brother and Sister-in-law, so I won’t have to worry about you two anymore. I have plans for Wenxiu and Wenwu too. I will nurture their skills so they can also live good lives.

Su Wenzhe and his wife almost cried because of how touched they felt, but they still insisted. Ultimately, they decided to split the tofu factory’s profit 50-50.

After everyone agreed, Su Binglan and her father went to First Granduncle Su’s place to discuss buying more land.

Su Teng Village was expansive, and there was a lot of empty land behind it. However, those plots of land were not suitable for growing crops, so no one wanted to spend money on them. Thus, most abandoned those lands.

When Su Binglan said she wanted to buy 50 acres of land, First Granduncle Su was stunned. “Are you honestly going to buy that much land, Binglan?! Most of them are useless since you can’t grow crops on them.”

He said that for Su Binglan’s sake because he saw Su Binglan as his own.

Su Binglan said smilingly, “There’s nothing wrong with the wasteland, First

Granduncle Su. I have a use for them.’

“Binglan is right, Uncle. Don’t worry. Since they’re useful to us, we won’t end up with losses from buying that land.”

Su Fengmao trusted his daughter very much because he knew she was capable. The wasteland might not grow crops in the hands of others, but it would for Su Binglan.

After all, the Su family harvested more rice than the rest of the villagers, even though they used the same land. It was just that Su Binglan would occasionally help in the fields, and Su Fengmao felt that the rice had overgrown thanks to his daughter.

Ads by Pubfuture Su Binglan’s abilities wildly convinced Old Madam Su. She said to her husband, “Yes, others might not buy that wasteland, but I believe in Binglan’s ability to make it useful.

She was fond of Su Binglan. Old Madam Su had warmly welcomed her since she entered the house. She even made tea that she was reluctant to brew for Su Fengmao and Su Binglan.

First Granduncle Su said, “Okay, since you insist on buying that land, it’ll cost one silver tael for two acres, making a total of fifty acres for twenty-five silver taels.’

Although he was curious about what Su Binglan wanted to do with that land, he did not pry. Nonetheless, he was happy to see his family doing well.

Su Fengmao was in disbelief. “That’s too cheap, Uncle!”

Su Fengmao knew his uncle would side with him whenever he looked for him. Su Fengmao feared affecting his uncle’s prestige in the village if the other villagers discovered this. @@novelbin@@

First Granduncle Su waved his hand and said, “Most of that land is uncultivated, anyway, and the villagers know that. No one would object to my price, even if they discovered how cheap it is. You can rest assured.”

Then he stamped the documents and the land deed.

The following day, Su Binglan and the others went to the administrator’s office to settle the documents, and the land finally belonged to Su Binglan.

After bringing Su Binglan and Su Fengmao back to the village, Old Master Su sighed.

Old Madam Su said, “Was there something you wanted to tell them?” She understood her husband well, so she knew his thoughts.

Old Master Su said, “Winter is coming soon, so the villagers can’t predict whether or not they have enough food to survive. I hope it won’t get too cold this time around, so no one will freeze to death.’

If the snow covered the mountains, the village would become colder.

Therefore, it was usual for some to freeze to death if they did not have enough to eat or warm clothes to wear.

Of course, Su Teng Village fared better than others, and Old Master Su was a good person as he would give the villagers his family’s belongings, blankets, and other things to use.

Ads by Pubfuture However, that was not a proper solution either. The surrounding villages’ situation was even dire as people would freeze to death once winter came. That was why Old Master Su was concerned.

Old Madam Su immediately understood how her husband felt. “Don’t you remember that Binglan is our family’s lucky star? Don’t you think she has ways to help the villagers become rich?

“When everyone’s conditions improve, they will be more willing to buy blankets and other things to survive the winter. Then they will no longer be afraid of the cold.’

Old Master Su nodded. “I know that, but I can’t allow it. We can’t let Binglan shoulder those responsibilities just because she can. She’s our family treasure, but she deserves to be happy too.”

Old Madam Su laughed. “You’re overthinking again, and Binglan is a good child. If something terrible happens to the village, she won’t just ignore it. Let’s just wait and see. The villagers will bask in her glory even if she doesn’t do anything. ”

Old Madam Su’s joyfulness brought up her husband’s mood. He relaxed slightly and said, “Are you that confident?”

“Of course I am! Haven’t you seen how many people Binglan has helped with just her ideas? Take the bricks, for example. Those bricks that Zhengde made were affordable, and the villagers went and bought a lot of them so they could repair their houses.

“Fengzhi is doing well, too, because the charcoal he makes is affordable. Now the villagers can afford to buy some to survive the winter. They won’t freeze to death,” Old Madam Su became more enthusiastic as she spoke.

She continued, “Those two are good people. They knew that Binglan was the one who brought them success, so they offered her 30% of their profits, even though she did not want to accept them. Ultimately, she had to because they insisted.

“Still, Binglan buys charcoal and bricks according to the real prices instead of a discount. She follows the rules, so it’s fair to everyone. With Binglan around, our village will only improve over time.”

Old Master Su smiled when he heard these things. “Well, you do make a lot of sense.”

Old Madam Su said, “See? You were overthinking.”

After all, Old Master Su had to think about these things since he was the village elder. “I still don’t know why Binglan bought the wasteland.”

“Don’t worry. Binglan will find a use for it, and we’ll know why when the time comes.” Old Madam Su was also curious but knew what she should and should not ask.

When Su Binglan and her father were on their way home, the family did not sleep. Even Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai were so excited that they did not want to sleep.

Liu Yinyin told them to sleep, but the duo insisted on waiting for their aunt to return. She said smilingly, “These two like their aunt very much now.” At that moment, Su Binglan returned.

Su Wenwu could not wait to ask, “Did you guys get the land, Father?”

Su Fengmao said excitedly, “Yes, we bought 50 acres! We must go to the office tomorrow and finalize the paperwork.”

Su Wenwu was so surprised that his jaw almost hit the ground..

Su Wenxiu was also stunned. He dug his ear and said, “Father, am I mistaken? Did you just say ‘fifty acres?”‘

When he finally returned to the village, he learned that his family had bought ten acres of land where their new house was. He thought it was a lot and that it was unbelievable.

However, he had just heard that his sister had bought another fifty acres, and he was simply in awe. His family owned so much land now. Of course, he knew it all belonged to his younger sister.

After all, his sister did all this for them, the Su family. They were all grateful to her from the bottom of their hearts. Even Liu Yiniyin could not fathom what she had heard.

Su Wenzhe’s ability to accept this was potent. He grinned and said, “Now that we have so much land, we can plant many soybeans!”

Su Binglan sensed everyone’s good mood and said smilingly, “Yes, we can. Also, we’re moving tomorrow, and after that, we’ll go to the mountain to pick soybeans. We’ll pick as much as possible.

“Our new house is massive, and there will be a big warehouse inside, which we can store our soybeans in.”

Shen Qiuhua sighed, “Finally, we’ll have ample space to store our things,” she saw her husband and Su Binglan were still standing as she spoke, so she hurriedly pulled them and continued, “Quick, let’s talk on the heated platform.”

It was warm on the platform, and everyone had grown accustomed to sitting on it. The family could feel its warmth when they covered themselves with blankets and talked.

When Su Binglan sat on the platform, everyone looked at her unanimously and listened to her following arrangements.

Liu Yinyin was very observant as she poured a glass of water. “You’ve said so much, Binglan. You should drink some water first.”

Su Binglan had already drank water at her grandparent’s house, but after seeing how caring her sister-in-law was, she knew it was not polite to brush her off.

She took the water and drank a few mouthfuls before continuing, “I remember the first time we picked soybeans in the mountain. It was two months ago, and summer had just passed.”

Ads by Pubfuture Shen Qiuhua also remembered that. “Yes, autumn had just arrived then.”

She felt emotional after reminiscing. It felt like ages ago now. Ever since they brought the soybeans home, their days drastically changed. The family relied on tofu and Su Binglan to make snacks and earn money.

Then they opened shops in town and bought some land. The family had gone through a lot lately.

“Since so much time has passed, the soybeans have continued sprouting and growing in the mountain. That’s why there are so many now.”

“Since there’s a lot now, we should have enough for the factory.”

“We need to plant more, but even our whole family can’t manage growing so many soybeans. Since that’s the case, I plan to hire the villagers to help after we move to the new house.”

Shen Qiuhua said, “That’s a good idea. It just so happens that everyone has finished their autumn harvest and has nothing much to do. They will be thrilled if we hire them to help with our soybeans.”

“The main thing is that the villagers won’t have to travel too far, and we will pay them.” Su Fengmao could understand how everyone felt.

His family had worked so hard when his food was still injured. He never stopped thinking about earning more money. He even thought it would be great if he could earn money without leaving the village.

Nonetheless, those were just thoughts, and there would be villagers who thought the same as him.

The villagers of Su Teng Village were not afraid of hard work and were willing to do work and earn money. They would even fight for work if they had to.

Su Wenzhe seemed to have thought of something and said, “I saw many people fighting to be a part of Uncle Zhengde’s construction team, but Uncle Zhengde can’t just accept everyone.”

Su Fengmao also knew how popular Su Zhengde’s construction team was. “Yes, but your uncle also has to consider whether or not some people are suitable for his line of work. After all, they will be part of a team and can’t drag down the others.”

Shen Qiuhua added, “Zhengde’s family also hired honest people from the village to cook grilled chicken and roast duck for his construction team. Some villagers also made money along with Zhengde’s family.

“Although the Mooncake Festival has passed and the sales of grilled chicken and roast duck are not as good, many restaurants and prominent families have gone to order a lot from them.

Ads by Pubfuture “Fengzhi also hired people to help him, and now the villagers can get busy too.

I went to your grandparent’s house a few days ago, and they were delighted.” @@novelbin@@

Shen Qiuhua was around her daughter a lot and started speaking as Su Binglan did. In any case, everyone in the Su family understood what she meant.

Su Wenzhe said passionately, “We must hire our villagers to help grow our soybeans so they can also earn money. When the time comes, they can work at our tofu factory. When the villagers have enough money, they can better prepare for the winter too.”

Obviously, no one wanted to go hungry or freeze during the winter. If the villagers had money, they could buy things to survive the winter. However, every family had to work hard because they did not have much money.

Su Wenxiu said, “Now we can help ourselves and the villagers. I will work hard and learn medicine to treat the villagers if they get sick during the winter.”

He started thinking about his childhood immediately after speaking. It was a harsh winter then, and he had a close friend. However, Su Wenxiu’s friend did not survive, which greatly affected him.

Moreover, he discovered it was easy for people to get sick during the winter, and most could not afford to treat their illnesses, so they would use local remedies to cure themselves.

It would be fine if the remedy worked, but one could only leave it up to fate if it did not. That was why Su Wenxiu always wanted to learn medicine. He could cure many people if he learned medical skills.

Su Wenxiu felt inspired when he saw his eldest brother earning money and knew what he must do, to study medicine resolutely.

However, Su Wenwu still did not know what his passion was.

Su Binglan patted Su Wenwu’s shoulder and said, “You’re still young, Third Brother. Don’t worry. You’ll eventually find your passion and what you’re good at. You will also achieve greatness when the time comes.”

Su Wenwu immediately became spirited when he heard his sister’s encouraging words. “Yes, Little Sister. Oh, right, what about your hotpot restaurant? You’ve been busy handling the tofu factory planning, so won’t it delay your hotpot restaurant opening?”

Su Wenzhe responded, “Yeah, your hotpot restaurant is the most important thing, Little Sister.”

Su Binglan explained smilingly, “There’s no delay at all. I’ve already rented the shop, but Uncle Zhengde’s team still needs time to renovate it, so there’s no rush for the next few days.

“Still, we’ve settled on the tofu products, and it’s just a matter of ingredients like mutton and pork. I thought of leaving these matters to you, Third Brother.”

Su Wenwu felt that his sister had placed him in an important position, so he hurriedly expressed his stance, “Just tell me what to do, and I will do it well, Sister!”

He was excited but also remembered what his sister had said. He thought of some details and said, “Didn’t you say it’s best to get someone to deliver those goods? How should I do that? Do I discuss it with the people who raise pigs and sheep and get them to deliver the goods? We still have to deal with that, which also requires time..”

Su Wenwu thought he should at least process the sheep and cows to turn them into pork and mutton.

Su Binglan patiently explained, “You can also think of ways to find a good source of goods, Third Brother.”

She knew Su Wenwu might not understand her unfamiliar vocabulary, so she tried using simpler words, “That means you can search for places to buy these things and place orders with those places. Tell them how much we need daily, and we’ll buy more or negotiate prices in advance.

“However, we won’t buy anything if the price is too high. Then we can think of other ways to get the needed goods. You can form a team, for example. That is to say, find people from each village and put them in charge of collecting a certain amount of pork and mutton.

“They can send those things to us afterward. Of course, we will set the prices for your team. They can earn the price difference when they buy pork and mutton.

“Still, the people we hire must have good characteristics and integrity. Only then can they do business longer. Oh, they also need to collect wool and keep it.

I have some uses for those later.’

Su Wenwu’s eyes lit up when he heard his sister’s words. “That’s a good idea,

Sister. Then the other villagers can have jobs too.”

Ads by Pubfuture Su Wenzhe added smilingly, “Wenwu has been the wild one since he was a child. He gets along well with his friends, and everyone calls him the boss whenever they follow him.” @@novelbin@@

Su Wenwu scratched the back of his head and felt embarrassed. “I was a child then, Big Brother. I ran a group from town and got to know a few boys my age when I went to the capital. They were from the surrounding villages and were pretty good people, but they were also poor and had no choice but to work and earn money.

“They even risked their lives doing so. We went on a trip once and encountered some problems along the way. Two members got injured, but we did not have enough money to treat their wounds.

“Those boys also wanted to earn and buy things for their families so they would not starve and freeze during the winter. Nonetheless, we had no choice but to work outside the village.

“They wouldn’t have needed to do that if they had a job nearby, and they wouldn’t be afraid of exposure. Still, those boys wouldn’t have been able to help their families without risking their lives.”

Su Binglan listened to her third brother’s story and felt a little uneasy. It seemed Su Wenwu had suffered a lot during his trip.

However, no one would have known this if Su Wenwu had not mentioned it. After some thought, Su Binglan said, “You can ask for those boys’ help finding goods for the hotpot restaurant.

“Of course, we can collect mutton and pork if they raise them. Those boys can also earn money buying those things anywvay.”

Su Wenwu understood what his sister said. He responded, “That’s something we can do.”

Su Binglan smiled at Su Wenwu and said, “You don’t have to worry about that, Third Brother. We need to hire more people when our business grows, after all. Still, our prerequisite is that the workers must possess good characteristics.

“We’re doing business and need to hire others. If we can help our villagers, we’ll help ourselves in the process, but we also can’t cheat ourselves, correct? So, we must keep our eyes open and hire those who are good people. That would save us a lot of trouble.

Ads by Pubfuture Su Wenwu said thoughtfully, “I understand, Sister. Although I’m familiar with those boys since we’ve experienced much together, I will be careful when hiring them.”

“Yes, Third Brother.” Su Binglan knew Su Wenwu had listened to her words. She realized her third brother was a wild spirit, but he had a good heart, and it was apparent that he was passionate and loyal.

Su Fengmao patted Su Wenwu’s shoulder, saying, “I know you want to help as many people as possible. I also dreamed of being a hero when I was young, but one must act within one’s capabilities.

“Nonetheless, you have your sister with you, and we believe Binglan will be able to help everyone in the future.”

Su Wenwu felt highly motivated as he said, “I know that, Father. I will work hard and do more because I also want to become a capable person.”

Su Fengmao felt gratified when he saw Su Wenwu like this. He knew his son had grown up.

Everyone talked for a long time that night and went to bed late.

After a busy day, Su Binglan returned to her room at night and fell asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow. She was in a daze as she saw a white mist appearing before her tired eyes before falling asleep.

Then she heard a voice, “Sister. Sister?”

It was a young boy’s voice, and he was calling out to his sister. The voice sounded warm and familiar.

Su Binglan did not know why, but she could not help but walk toward the voice’s direction. Then the fog parted and disappeared before her.

See What Personalised Content We Have Based on Your Browsing History See What Personalised Content We Have Based on Your Browsing History DiscoveryFeed Ads by Pubfuture She appeared in an enormous house with many maids and servants in the courtyard. Everyone was busy as Su Binglan continued walking forward.

However, no one could see her as she seemed to be transparent.

Then, a mysterious force sucked Su Binglan into a big, beautifully decorated room. It seemed to be a little girl’s room. A little girl, about six to seven years old, was lying on the bed, sleeping soundly.

Her hair was messy, and Su Binglan could not see her face.

“Sister?” A little boy’s voice approached. Then a handsome boy ran into the room, waking the little girl as she opened her eyes in a daze.

When the little girl saw the boy, she revealed a worried expression, “You’re not well, Brother. Stop running around.”

The little girl quickly got down from her bed and pulled the boy over as he looked back at her with a gentle gaze. Even at such a young age, the boy’s eyes were full of affection. One could tell he adored his sister.

“Didn’t you say you enjoy reading various books, Sister? Here, these are the ones I bought for you.” The boy held a few miscellaneous books in his hands.

Su Binglan looked at the book titles and realized they were about folk and Chu Country customs.

The boy seemed interested, but Su Binglan looked at the girl’s appearance and was surprised because the little girl looked just like Su Binglan when she was a child.

Su Binglan felt puzzled and continued reading the book titles.

Then the little girl said thoughtfully, “Thank you, but it’s not safe for you to run around, Brother. Please stop running around.”

“I know, but I just wanted to get you everything you like.”

The two siblings read the books together smilingly when a gentle female voice sounded, “Ruozhu, Roubing?”

A gorgeous and gentle young lady who looked to be in her twenties walked into the room. “Ruozhu, I knew I’d find you here with your sister.”

The little girl stood up and said, “Don’t scold him, Mother. I was the one who called him over.”

The young lady smiled helplessly and said, “You’re always protecting your brother, Roubing. Don’t worry. I won’t scold him.. However, your father will soon lead his troops into battle, and I will follow him since I don’t know how long we’ll be away this time, but you two must behave yourselves, okay?”

The little girl realized something and said, “Aren’t you going to bring us along, Mother?”

The young lady gently explained, “It’s too dangerous at the border, so you and your brother should obediently stay safe here.”

The little boy grabbed his mother’s hand and said, “Neither you nor Father should go since it’s dangerous.”

He was only a few years old but looked so severe that the young lady’s heart melted. “Don’t worry. Your father and I will be okay since you and your sister are safe at home. You’re a boy, so you must protect and care for your sister. Do you understand?”

The little boy nodded and said thoughtfully, “Don’t worry, Mother. I will take care of Roubing.” @@novelbin@@

The little girl added, “I’ll protect Ruozhu too, Mother.”

The young lady helplessly shook her head and said, “Just don’t be mischievous again you two.”

The little girl said, “I’m not mischievous, Mother.”

“Oh, you aren’t? Do you honestly think I don’t know that you sneak out a lot?”

“Mother, didn’t you arrange for people to protect me secretly? Nothing will happen to us.”

The young lady was surprised. “The people protecting you usually hide in the shadows. How did you find out?”

The little girl said, ‘i l can feel them around me.”

Ads by Pubfuture The little boy looked at his sister with widened eyes and said, “You’re so strong, Sister.”

“That’s why I’ll protect you, Brother.”

“I’m a man, so I should be the one protecting you, Sister.”

The little girl said, “I will find someone to cure you, Brother. Then you can run and jump as much as you want.”

The little boy’s body was weak ever since he was born, and although the little girl was just a child, she knew many things.

The young lady held her children’s hands, feeling immensely gratified. “It’s all my fault. I got poisoned, and it affected Ruozhu too.”

The scene changed, and it seemed like a long time had passed. The weather had also turned cold.

The little girl was sleeping and suddenly dreamt someone had led her brother to a pond in the backyard and pushed him into the water. The pond was slightly remote, and it was night, so no one else was around.

No matter how much the little boy shouted, no one went to save him. Ultimately, he drowned and died.

The little girl’s dream immediately startled her as she looked at the sky outside and hurriedly got down from her bed. Then she shouted, “Shadow One!”

However, Shadow One was not around, and the little girl’s expression changed. She did not care about anything else, as time was of the essence. She even ran out of the house barefoot, even though it was late autumn and frost had built up at night.

The little girl’s clothes were also thin, and she shivered when the cold wind blew. However, she did not bother about anything else and ran toward the pond. She shouted, “Someone! Quick, help!”

When the little girl arrived at the pond, she saw the footprints and splashes of water on the ground.

“Brother?! Brother!”

Ads by Pubfuture The little girl jumped directly into the pond. She could swim, even though she was just a child. She realized her brother had been in the water for a long time, so she forcefully pulled the unconscious little boy out of the pond.

After pulling him out, the little girl started shivering uncontrollably. Many people ran over immediately after. Everyone had heard her screams when she shouted earlier.

The little girl’s teeth even started clattering from the coldness. She looked at her unconscious brother and noticed his face was ashen, so she began performing first aid.

Someone quickly reacted, saying, “Quick, someone call for the physician!”

The little girl finally saved her brother, and the physician finally arrived. She

dared not rest, but the maidservants carried her back to her room and changed her into clean clothes.

She insisted on seeing her brother, but the physician said the little boy was okay and that his condition had stabilized. Only then did the little girl heave a sigh of relief.

However, the little girl fell severely ill that night and only woke up three days later. After waking up, her body became weak, and her brother became weaker.

When the little boy woke up, he supported his weak body and went to see his sister. “Please be okay, Sister.”

He was terrified, but the little girl opened her eyes and smiled to comfort him,

“Don’t be afraid, Brother. I will live on and find the person who harmed you.”

After waking up, the little girl asked Shadow One and the other shadow guard where they were when her sister fell into the pond. Only then did she learn that a highly skillful assassin had infiltrated the imperial residence that night.

The assassin had lured Shadow One and the other shadow guard away before going for the little boy.

It was also at that moment when the little girl’s expression changed. “We have too few Shadow Guards, so I want to train more members myself. I want to take my revenge.”

Take a Sneak Peek at Our Latest Recommendations Here Take a Sneak Peek at Our Latest Recommendations Here DiscoveryFeed Ads by Pubfuture The little boy noticed the change in his sister’s eyes and knew she seemed different.

Su Binglan’s dream unfolded. She did not know why, but her mood changed along with the little girl, especially since the little girl i s style of doing things was similar to hers.

She began to think the little girl was Lan Roubing.

‘Was that how everything happened?’ Su Binglan was doubtful. Then the mist spread again, and she continued sleeping.

She remembered the little girl and boy in her dreams when she awoke the following day. Su Binglan thought about the little boy and felt worried, but she did not know why.

She wondered how the little boy was doing and thought, ‘Right, their names are Lan Roubing and Lan Ruozhu. So, were they Princess Lan and King Lan?’

However, she knew Princess Lan had died three years ago, and King Lan was still alive in Dingzhou. For some reason, Su Binglan wanted to visit that place and check it out. It was not until breakfast that she felt absent-minded.

Liu Yinyin carefully noticed Su Binglan’s strange behavior and said, “Did you not sleep well last night, Binglan? You seem distracted. Is something on your mind?”

Su Binglan returned to her senses when she heard her sister-in-law’s voice.

She smiled and shook her head, saying, “I-I’m fine, Sister-in-law.”

After breakfast, she started getting busy and did not have the time to think about meaningless things anymore. After all, Su Binglan had to go to town in the morning to get the documents for the new land she bought.

She swiftly arrived at the town because she rode her horse. Moreover, the administrators were polite and quickly settled her paperwork when they saw her. Ultimately, it did not take all morning for Su Binglan to settle her business.

She also noticed the flow of people had increased again when she rode past her dessert shop. Previously, everyone was busy with the autumn harvest, so fewer people went to the dessert shop.

People still went to buy and eat mooncakes, even though the Mooncake

Festival had ended. However, there were not as many people as before the Mooncake Festival.

The haggis soup and sesame buns were still as popular as ever. Su Wenzhe and his wife were already busy when it was almost noon, but the weather was getting colder, so the young couple placed more tables in the shop.

If one wanted to beat the cold, one would eat in the shop, and if one enjoyed eating out, one would eat at the shop.

Su Binglan passed by her third uncle’s skewer stall and greeted him and his family.

Su Fengzhi and Liu Shi were as busy as ever but still warmly greeted Su Binglan when they saw her, “Quick, come here, Binglan. You can have some freshly barbecued lamb skewers to warm yourself up..”

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Madam Liu enthusiastically handed the barbecued lamb skewers to Su Binglan.

Su Binglan could not decline Madam Liu’s kind offer, so she took the skewers and started eating. She asked, “Uncle Fengzhi, Madam Liu, has business been good?”

Madam Liu explained smilingly, “It’s perfect. Our lamb skewers are famous, and many people from other villages and towns have come to eat them. I can’t talk much at noon since it’ll get busy soon. Your uncle and I have hired someone, and he will come and help us in the afternoon.”

Su Binglan nodded. It seemed that business was indeed good. Otherwise, her third uncle and his wife would not be willing to spend money just to hire a helper.

She seemed to have thought of something and asked, “Is there anyone else who sells lamb skewers around?”

She knew it was easy for others to learn how to make lamb skewers. Everyone could learn just by watching.

Su Fengzhi was busy with his lamb skewers as he said smilingly, “No one else sells lamb skewers. As far as I know, we’re the only ones in town that do. I think it’s because they can’t copy our seasoning and high charcoal prices.

“Our skewers will be more expensive if we include the charcoal prices. Hence, people think it’s not worth it, so no one has imitated our business yet.”

Su Binglan nodded.

Ads by Pubfuture However, if a foreigner saw the lamb skewers and imitated them, the foreigner would sell them at a higher price in their local area. The wealthy would still buy them as long as they were delicious. After all, skewers were unique from other foods.

Su Binglan looked around and said, “The weather is getting colder, so it’s not wise for others to eat lamb skewers in the open. You should set up a shop

instead. I ‘

Madam Liu said, “We’ve thought about that. We can afford it now since we’ve earned quite a lot of money. Still, we can’t barbecue the lamb skewers indoors, can we? There’s too much smoke.’ @@novelbin@@

Madam Liu was worried she would burn down the building if they rented a shop and barbecued their lamb skewers indoors.

Su Binglan said, “That’s a simple fix. You guys can rent a shop with a backyard, so you and Uncle Fengzhi can barbecue the lamb skewers outdoors. Then you can bring them into the shop and serve them on the tables inside.

“When the time comes, not only can you sell lamb skewers, but you can also sell other dishes that go well with wine. Then you’ll earn even more money.”

Madam Liu became excited when she imagined that scene. “You’re right. That is an excellent idea! Previously, many customers said that our lamb would go well with wine. However, wine is expensive, and it might be too much of a risk.

“Still, I think it’s no problem to cook some dishes with wine. Your third uncle was a chef, so he’s great at cooking with these expensive ingredients.”

Madam Liu knew she and her family could earn more if more customers came to eat their lamb skewers and vegetables. Indeed, they were too busy, but they could always hire someone to barbecue the lamb skewers since it was a simple task.

As long as the new workers mastered the barbecuing method and seasoning, others could not imitate their business even if they wanted to.

“Wenlin learned how to cook from Fengzhi, but Wenlin and Wenchi are busy making charcoal and preparing the skewers at home.”

Ads by Pubfuture It was no wonder Su Binglan did not see Su Wenlin and Su Wenchi when she visited town these past few days. It turned out they were busy preparing other things like charcoal at home.

Su Binglan said, “More people will buy your lamb skewers when winter arrives, and charcoal becomes cheaper.”

Su Fengzhi thought of something and said, “By the way, Binglan. My second brother told me you need more charcoal because you’re opening a hotpot restaurant soon. You can take ours and use them.

“You were the one who taught us how to make charcoal, so it also belongs to you. There’s no need to buy any from us; you can just take as much as you want.”

Previously, Su Fengzhi insisted on giving Su Binglan 30% of his profits from the charcoal his family sold.

He and Madam Liu were very insistent, and they said that if it were not for Su Binglan, their family would not know how to make charcoal, let alone make barbecued lamb skewers.

The older couple tried persuading Su Binglan then, but she only accepted the 30% profits. Still, Su Binglan refused to use their charcoal at no cost.

She insisted, “I won’t argue with you, and you don’t have to argue with me either. I need a lot of charcoal, and I will feel more at ease if I pay for the charcoal. I would feel too embarrassed to take your charcoal for free Uncle

Fengzhi, you and Madam Liu should do as I say if you want to help me.” Since she had said so, Su Fengzhi and his wife could not refute it.

“Okay, we won’t argue. Your cousins will make more charcoal at home, so don’t worry. You can use as much as you need.”

“Okay,” Su Binglan seemed to have thought of something and said, “Uncle Fengzhi, Madam Liu, you can cooperate with the people from the winery if you need to buy some. They might lower the price since you’ll buy more. I know many wine sellers in town who will happily cooperate with you.”

Su Binglan had thought of opening a winery, but she was too busy with many things and could not do that for a long time.

Su Binglan rode her horse back after talking to her third uncle and his wife for a while. In the meantime, Su Fengmao and his wife did not slack off in the morning as they moved their things to the new house.

Even though the family had gotten new furniture to replace the old ones, Shen Qiuhua could not bear to throw the old ones away, so she took them all to the new house.

The family also had cows and donkeys, so Shen Qiuhua tied them up in the new house’s shed since it was big enough and had a special place for livestock.

When Su Binglan returned, her father and the others had finished moving. There were still a few miscellaneous things in the old house, but the family had quickly moved them.

Su Binglan had packed hers and her husband’s things when she woke up, and Shen Qiuhua went over to pick them up and send them to the new house.

Su Binglan went to the old house when she rode her horse home, but she realized it was empty. Honestly, it was tough to adapt to moving houses so suddenly.

She felt that way because she had stayed in the old house for a long time, and changing environments seemed like a significant change. Nonetheless, Su Binglan led her horse to the new house.

Su Wenxiu did not go to Hundred Herb Hospital in the morning because he helped his family with the move. He only planned to go to the hospital after lunch in the afternoon.

Su Wenwu had been helping at home as he wanted his sister’s hotpot restaurant to open soon so he would have something to do.

“Sister, you’re back.”

He was drying clothes and bedding in the yard. Most of the clothes he hung out to dry had been in the cupboard for a long time, so he had to take them out to bask in the sun. Otherwise, they would smell stale.

Su Wenwu was delighted when he saw Su Binglan had returned because he knew there would be good food for lunch.

Su Binglan looked at the yard the family would use to hang clothes. She had made a drying pole and asked Su Zhengde to make some clothes racks to make it more convenient for the family to hang clothes and dry bedding.

The old house’s yard was too small, so Shen Qiuhua tied a rope to hang and dry clothes. Every family in the village did that, as they had no clotheslines or hangers.

Su Binglan noticed Su Wenwu’s excitement and smiled. “Did you guy’s finish moving all our stuff?”

“Yes, we’ve moved everything. Since we didn’t have much, I started doing housework after breakfast. I’ m just waiting for lunch now that I’ve finished my housework.. “

Shen Qiuhua was getting firewood when she heard the conversation between the siblings in the distance. She laughed and said, “Your third brother must be hungry. He must be in a hurry to eat lunch.”

Su Binglan responded, “Since we’ve moved, we naturally have to eat delicious food for lunch, so I’ll make it soon.”

Even Su Wenxiu became energized when he heard his sister saying she would make lunch soon. He was holding a hoe as he walked over. “I wasn’t hungry yet, but when I heard Binglan would cook soon, I became famished.”

Su Binglan’s cooking skills were apparent to her family. The family knew they could eat delicious food if Su Binglan was cooking.

Although the family had watched and learned how to cook from Su Binglan, their food would taste different even if they followed her methods to a tee.

Moreover, Su Binglan always came up with different ways to cook delicious food, and the family simply could not learn all of them.

Shen Qiuhua took the firewood and approached her daughter. “Have you completed the paperwork after going to town?

Su Binglan revealed the documents for the land deed and said, “It’s all here and stamped.”

Su wenwu said excitedly, “Our family has gained fifty acres of land this time. It’s magnificent!

Shen Qiuhua’s eyes overflowed with joy, saying, “Put the documents away safely. We’ll go to the back of the mountain to pick soybeans after lunch.”

“Okay.”

Ads by Pubfuture After some thought, Su Binglan said, “I’ll make fried meatballs for lunch today.

She had never made fried meatballs, so no one knew what they were. Still, the family believed it would be delicious, no matter what it was. Hence, they got excited when they heard Su Binglan would make fried meatballs.

Su wenwu took the firewood from his mother and said, “You can rest, Mother. I’ll go and light the fire.”

Su Wenxiu added enthusiastically, “What can I help you with, Sister?”

Su Binglan said, “You can help me while mother washes the radishes and wild vegetables. We’ll make normal meatballs and vegetable ones since they’re both delicious.”

“Okay, I’ll go wash the vegetables now.” Shen Qiuhua quickly ran to get the wild vegetables and radishes.

Su Fengmao came home then, and Su Binglan noticed his happy expression. She asked curiously, “Where did you go, Father?”

Su Fengmao replied, “I went to your granduncle’s house and told him our plans for the fifty acres of land. He was thrilled and said we had helped the village enormously.”

Su Binglan frowned. “Father, you told him so quickly?”

“Yes, but didn’t say what we would do exactly. We should let your granduncle arrange for people to clear and reclaim the land. Then it’ll be easier for us to grow soybeans.”

Shen Qiuhua glared at her husband. “You’re just as impatient as ever. Why did you tell him so quickly?”

Su Fengmao said unwillingly, “I was just thinking of quickly clearing the land so we can plant soybeans earlier.”

Shen Qiuhua said unhappily, “Still, you can’t be in such a hurry. You should stick to Binglan’s plans instead.”

Su Fengmao lowered his head and looked like a guilty child. “B-But I only wanted to help.”

Ads by Pubfuture Su Binglan sighed and helplessly comforted her father, “It’s okay, Father. All right, I’ll just say it. I went to town to do something else.”

“What was it?” Everyone looked at her and waited for her to continue.

Su Binglan noticed everyone looking at her, so she did not keep them in suspense, saying, “I bought that mountain back there.”

Su Fengmao was flabbergasted. “D-Daughter! Y-You bought that mountain too?!”

Shen Qiuhua pinched herself and realized she did not mishear her daughter’s words. She asked anxiously, “I-Is that true, Binglan? Did you buy the mountain where we usually get our soybeans? It’s so big, yet you bought it?”

Su Wenxiu was dumbfounded. “It should have cost you a mountain of money!”

Su Wenwu’s eyes were wide open, looking shocked. “My sister is the most capable person in the world!”

‘Not only does my family have fifty more acres of land, but we now have a mountain! Binglan is incredible!’

Su Fengmao finally returned to his senses and said, “Our village doesn’t own that mountain; the county government does, so buying it would require their approval. Did the county government honestly sell the mountain to you?

Su Binglan looked at everyone’s reaction and thought it was pretty interesting. She revealed the land deal for the mountain and said, “The mountain only cost a hundred silver taels, so it’s not expensive. Here’s the land deed and documents.”

Everyone approached Su Binglan to take a closer look at the documents. Indeed, she had bought the mountain.

Su Fengmao said happily, “I have the most capable daughter ever! That mountain is all ours!”

Shen Qiuhua sighed, “Yeah, it’s a treasure trove back there, especially inside the mountain. It contains many edible ingredients.”

She remembered her daughter finding chilies, chestnuts, and soybeans in the mountain’s depths. She did not know what else the mountain held.

Everyone in the village valued land, and whatever grew into their housing area would belong to them. They would consider it as stealing if others were to harvest things on their property.

Su Fengmao waved his hand and said, “There are also wild animals in the mountain. The villagers would never risk going inside and only scoured the outer perimeter to hunt chickens and rabbits.

“However, our villagers are united, and everyone is efficient. If they knew the mountain belonged to us, they would not go and harvest things there without our permission.”

Su Binglan was very busy, and it had been a while since she had gone to the mountain to check things out. She said, “I’ll go to the mountain and see what else is there.”

After all, She did not buy that mountain for no reason since she had a plan. She knew the mountain would be useful to her family.

“I’ll go with you, Sister!” Su Wenwu had become his sister’s follower these days.

Su Wenxiu wanted to say he would follow her, but he thought he should go to Hundred Herb Hospital to study medicine after lunch instead.

Shen Qiuhua echoed, “Your father and I will come along after lunch.”

Su Binglan nodded. “Let’s have lunch now.”

The family felt energetic when they thought about how much land they had and the mountain they now owned.

The family moved briskly and busied themselves in the new house’s main hall. Su Fengmao and his wife lived in the central area with a sizable kitchen. The kitchen had ample space with a wide stove.

Su Binglan designed the new house to imitate those in a modern era, which could accommodate many people. Now everyone could help in the kitchen.

Under her guidance, everyone cut the meat and washed vegetables. Su Binglan also put the green onions, ginger, and meat finely. Then she put these things into the basin and added wine, salt, seasoning powder, and other spices before stirring them.

She also added eggs and starch. After evenly stirring these things, she told her mother and Su Wenxiu to help roll the mixture into small balls.

“Is this enough, Sister?”

“Yes, you can eat the meatballs after I’ve fried them.”

Su Wenxiu looked at the meatballs and thought they looked good. “These look similar to dumpling fillings.” @@novelbin@@

Su Binglan nodded. “Yes, they’re similar, but there are minor differences. This mixture is a little thinner, so they taste different after I’ve fried them.]’
