Chapter 634: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 634: Growing Vegetables and Cultivating Helpers (4)
Tang Xin’s idea of growing and selling vegetables was quite good. She could use the spiritual spring water to help the entire village grow greenhouse vegetables, which would lift them out of poverty. This would not only generate merit but also reduce the envy and trouble directed at her family.
The more Mo Yan considered it, the more feasible it seemed. She was eager to discuss it with the village chief but decided to wait until morning due to the darkness outside and instead discussed it with Mo Qingze.
Mo Qingze usually supported his daughter's ideas, but given that this involved over a thousand villagers, he had to voice his concerns: “Last year, families that grew greenhouse vegetables ended up losing a lot of money and are still facing famine. If you urge everyone to start growing greenhouse vegetables now, there might not be many willing to take on such a risk.”
Mo Yan was not worried about this issue. She smiled slightly and said, “We earned this house from growing greenhouse vegetables in just one year. There will definitely be bold people willing to try it with us. As long as those who grow vegetables this year see success, they will be more willing to plant them next year. Why would we worry about the rest not growing?”
Mo Yan’s confidence seemed to indicate that she was fully prepared to grow greenhouse vegetables. Mo Qingze merely smiled and said, “If that’s the case, I’ll go see the village chief tomorrow. You can handle the arrangements based on how many families are willing to join in.”
Mo Yan agreed and turned to the excited Tang Xin, saying, “Once we confirm which families will grow greenhouse vegetables, I’ll plan and arrange things. By this time next year, you’ll be in charge of overseeing the arrangement of the vegetables. What do you think?”
Large-scale greenhouse vegetable cultivation required understanding the market and planning the planting area wisely. Otherwise, if supply exceeded demand, not only would they fail to make money, but the vegetables could rot in the fields. Mo Yan had seen such waste happen more than once in her previous life and did not want to repeat it.
Tang Xin looked at Mo Yan in disbelief, not understanding at first. After a while, she stammered, “I-I’m afraid I might not do it well!”
Mo Yan encouraged her, “This task isn’t difficult. I’ll work with you this year, and if you don’t understand something, just ask me. You’ll definitely learn.”
Once the winery was completed, there would be more and more tasks at home. If she handled everything herself, she would be exhausted. Since Tang Xin was so interested in growing and selling vegetables and had already signed a contract, it was perfect to entrust this task to her.
Tang Xin was so excited that she didn’t know where to put her hands. Li Yan nudged her with her elbow and reminded, “Quick, respond! Since Sister Yan is so trusting in you, what are you hesitating about?”
Tang Xin snapped to attention and gratefully said to Mo Yan, “Sister Yan, you can rest assured. I will definitely learn well. If I don’t learn properly, you can hit or scold me. Just… just…”
After stammering for a long time, Tang Xin couldn’t quite articulate what she wanted, and her face turned red.
Mo Yan understood what she meant and couldn’t help but laugh, saying, “As long as you’re willing to learn, I’ll teach you as many times as needed. I don’t want to be the fierce ‘mother tiger’!”
Hearing the term “mother tiger,” the fluffy ball of fur eating vegetables looked unhappy and ran over to nudge Mo Yan’s leg, unwilling to let go.
It was a tiger, but it was very gentle and not fierce at all. Not only could it protect Mo Yan, but it also warmed her bed in winter. It was Mo Yan’s “warm man”!
Everyone, just coming out of Mo Yan’s humorous analogy, couldn’t help but laugh at the sight of the fluffy ball’s insistence. Even Tang Xin, who had been moved to tears, couldn’t help but smile.
