Chapter 1169: Buy that village
Chapter 1169: Buy that village
Yu Dong of course knew what Shen Li was thinking in his head and chuckled softly. She flicked him on the forehead after she was done washing her hands and then said, " What are you even thinking? Do you think that I will release something that will not sell in the market? When have I ever done that?"
Shen Li raised his hand and then rubbed the spot where Yu Dong had hit him. Though he hated to admit it Yu Dong was right, she had never done anything that would not sell well in the market but as her husband how could he stop worrying?
He sighed and then looked at Yu Dong who was heading inside the house before following her in the house. He then said, " I agree. However, where are you thinking of growing these many trees? I mean the villagers are already growing vegetables and berries, and the farmlands are completely full already. Where will you grow these plants when there is no space?"
When Yu Dong heard Shen Li's queries, she paused in her stride and then hummed lightly. She had to admit that what he said was indeed right. The space in the village was already filled with vegetables and berries, where was she supposed to grow an orchid and cocoa plantation?
" Is Madam Yu home?" Just as Yu Dong was thinking about the problem at hand, Xiao Gu's voice came from outside, snapping Yu Dong from her thoughts. She blinked her eyes and then turned to look at Shen Li before asking, " Did someone call me?"
" I guess," Shen Li nodded as he turned on his heels and then walked over to the front door which he pulled open and greeted the woman outside with a gentle smile, " Little Gu, you are here."
" They are just waiting for the mall to open and see for themselves," Yu Dong muttered as she took a look at the slave deeds and nodded after skimming through most of the deeds. Just as expected of Madam Song and Gu Ke Jin, they had done an excellent job. " It's fine. Even if they refuse to sell the pickles, it's not going to be a loss.
By the way, Ke Jin can you look for a village with fertile farming lands? "
Gu Ke Jin frowned as she tilted her head to the side and asked Yu Dong," Madam Yu, are you thinking of buying a village?"
Shen Li turned to look at Yu Dong and so did Chen Mi and Ye Liu who returned from the river. The two of them took the children to the river because they wanted to pick snails and fish from the river. With the water level dwindling it was not difficult for them to pick up snails and fish as they could easily catch them without the fast water flow.
" You can say that," Yu Dong ignored her three husbands who were looking at her in shock and horror after hearing that she wanted to buy another village and then said to Gu Ke Jin, " I would prefer it if you bring me a list of villages that are suffering, I do not want any sort of trouble. As long as they are willing to sell, I am willing to buy their village."
Gu Ke Jin's brows furrowed upon hearing Yu Dong's words but she still nodded and then said to Yu Dong, " I will take a look at the villages around the Big River Village then. Do you want the village to be close or a bit far from the river, Madam Yu?"
" It will be better if it's closer to my village, that way I will be able to join the two villages," stated Yu Dong. She hummed and then said, " Take a look at the Big Stone Village, though their lands are not as fertile as the ones in my village, I can make it work."
