The Rough Hunter’s Little Lucky Wife

Chapter 289 - 289 Going Home



289 Going Home

The matters in Huai County had temporarily come to an end. Zhao Zhan planned to bring Yue Jiaojiao back to Willow Village first. As for the house he had bought in Huai County, Master Sun knew their preferences and habits and had experience, so he was responsible for renovating his house.

Master Sun also had a team of apprentices now, and most of them were just providing support by the side.

...

When it came to things like house repairs, he would usually just give a few instructions before letting his disciple do it. However, this was Zhao Zhan’s house, so Master Sun put down his work and personally came to look after it.

After Zhao Zhan and Master Sun met up and explained the matter clearly, they directly got into the carriage and left.

As soon as they left the city gate, they were blocked by another carriage.

Lin Chenzhi came down from above. “Zhao Zhan, I’m going back to Bei City. I’d like to bid you farewell before I leave.”

Yue Jiaojiao, who was lying in Zhao Zhan’s arms, got up.

“I’ll go and take a look.” Zhao Zhan patted her shoulder. “It’s a good thing that he’s leaving. Don’t worry, I’ll handle it.”

Zhao Zhan parted the curtains.

Lin Chenzhi peeked into the carriage, his line of sight completely blocked by Zhao Zhan. “Madam Zhao, aren’t you coming down to say goodbye as well? No matter what, we are all acquaintances.”

“It’s going to be a long journey from Huai County to Bei City. Lin Chenzhi, I hope you have a safe trip back.” Zhao Zhan’s expression was cold, his sharp gaze fixed on Lin Chenzhi. “The people of the North are especially fierce. You must be careful of mountain bandits.”

Lin Chenzhi retracted the relaxed expression on his face and straightened his back quietly. The little bit of affection he had for Yue Jiaojiao dissipated slightly at Zhao Zhan’s words.

He felt that there was a hidden meaning in the other party’s words.

“I’ve left a subordinate here,” Lin Chenzhi stated his intention. “After all, we’re considered partners now, so I can’t just up and leave.”

“Yue San, come here.”

A thin and shrewd-looking man walked over.

“This is how he looks. In the future, when you work with Zhao Zhan, learn from him.”

“Greetings, Zhao Zhan. I am Yue San, and I am in charge of purchasing your items and sending them to Bei City.”

Zhao Zhan nodded slightly to acknowledge the other party. “Your surname is quite strange. I thought that the attendants of large families all follow their master’s surname.”

“My master has a deep affection for my cousin. Ever since my cousin’s accident, my master has been worried because his accident happened in the mountain gaze area. As the person who will be staying here in the future, my master has specially named me Yue San as a way of honoring his cousin.”

Yue Jiaojiao, who was sitting in the carriage, felt extremely disgusted.

Lin Chenzhi was an extreme hypocrite.

He was clearly the instigator, but he could still act so affectionately to win the favor of others.

If he could fake it in the mountain gaze, then he must have used the same method to win the favor of the shopkeepers when he took over his shops.

“Lin Chenzhi, take care. When I’m free in the future, I’ll definitely pay a visit to Bei City.”

Since the Lin family had dared to be so ruthless back then, they should have been prepared for revenge.

“I’ll be patiently waiting.” Lin Chenzhi cupped his hands and bowed, then retreated into the carriage. Through the curtain, his face was as calm as still water.

“Let’s go.”

Zhao Zhan waited until his carriage was far away before he ordered his attendant to shake the reins.

“Zhao Zhan, before we go home, should we go to Lizheng’s house first?”

As soon as Lin Chenzhi left, Yue Jiaojiao felt the gloominess of being stared at disappear.

“I’ll leave the tofu sales in Wangshan to Dashan and Limiao. When they have children in the future, they’ll have plenty of money to use. We’ll leave the pickled vegetable workshop to Xiaoyu. We’re also short of a person for the sauces. We also need a place to do packaging.”

“If that’s the case, there won’t be enough storage units at the back. There’ll be so many people coming and going every day, and we’ll need a special room for registration.”

Yue Jiaojiao told Zhao Zhan everything she knew. When the time comes, those who want to collect the goods should first sign the receipt, then go to the warehouse and line up to collect the goods. “When you receive the goods, you also have to sign the receipt. This way, if there are any mistakes in the future, you can check the accounts.”

Zhao Zhan listened attentively.

Every word from her was like precious gold to him.

He was not born to be a businessman, and the reason why he was able to make his business reach its current scale was definitely because of the help that she had given him.

Every thought she had was different from others, but they were practical enough to bring them profit.

“Zhao Zhan?”

Seeing that Zhao Zhan did not respond, Yue Jiaojiao, who had been lying on his lap, shook his arm. “Did you hear all that?”

“I did,” Zhao Zhan repeated what he had just heard. “I was just thinking about going to Lizheng to buy a piece of land.”

“Have you decided which one to buy? Is it the open space at the foot of the mountain where our warehouse is?”

Zhao Zhan shook his head slightly. He placed his palm on his lover’s face and rubbed his thumb gently.

“There is a large open space in the village, just behind the field. It is an uncultivated wasteland. I want to buy it.

“There will be more and more people in the future, and they will all be staying in the warehouse behind our house. The noisy morning will hinder your sleep.”

Yue Jiaojiao thought about the scene of hundreds of people working together every day and felt a little scared.

“Thank you for thinking of me.”

They were all women from the village, so it was impossible for it to be quiet when they were working and talking about family matters.

“When the time comes, we’ll convert that warehouse into a row of rooms.” Yue Jiaojiao thought of the few people that Zhao Zhan had bought previously. “We’ll let them live there in the future. Our family doesn’t need them to help with any work. You can take care of them by your side. If there are any smart and useful ones, train them and they’ll be your right-hand men in the future.

In any case, these youths were still young and had signed a contract. They could be used after cultivating their loyalty and training. This way, you can also take a break once in a while.”

Zhao Zhan said seriously, “I’ll do as you say.”

The carriage sent the two of them all the way to the village entrance. Zhao Zhan carried Yue Jiaojiao down, and the two of them went straight to Lizheng’s house.

“Zhao Zhan?”

Lizheng had just finished his lunch and was sitting in the courtyard. He was drowsy from the sun rays. When he heard Zhao Zhan’s voice, he instantly woke up and smiled. “Why are you here?”

“Hello, I wanted to ask you if you’ve sold the uncultivated land behind the fields in our village?”

“That piece of land…” Yang Lizheng’s smile disappeared, “You want to buy that land? You want it for…”

“The construction workshop.”

“That won’t do.” Yang Lizheng shook his head and refused, as if there was no room for negotiation. “That piece of land is too close to the fields in our village. If you buy the manure to grow the beans, I can still sell it to you, but I can’t use it to build a workshop.”
