The village chief arrived earlier than them, and some fellow villagers also came here early to wait.

After all, it is difficult to find such a high salary for the Wen family.

When they saw the three people coming, they all gathered around.

"Mr. Wen, what kind of windfall did your family make? At first, we didn't believe it when we heard that the Wen family bought such a large piece of land!"

"Yes, if your family gets rich, don't forget to bring the big guy with you!"

Wen Danian smiled and said: "Oh, I am an old man, how can I make a fortune? My granddaughter picked up an important item lost by a wealthy family in the town, and was rewarded."

This was the rhetoric they had discussed from the beginning.

It wasn't that he was unwilling to tell the story about the medicinal materials. After all, Wenxi didn't need the medicinal materials from the back mountain now.

But if everyone in the village thinks selling medicine makes money, everyone will stop farming.

The back mountain is so big, and there aren't many medicinal materials in total.

If everyone tries their luck to collect herbs instead of farming, it will really be a disaster for Daniu Village.

"That's right. We thought your family had some great luck!"

"But it's also luck to be appreciated by noble people!"

Folks, with just a few words, the matter was revealed.

At this time, the sound of horse hooves in the distance attracted everyone's attention. After all, all the people here who can raise horses are wealthy families.

And in Daniu Village, where are the wealthy families?

After a while, a carriage appeared in front of everyone.

A middle-aged man got out of the car.

It's Wang Qing.

A craftsman is so grand.

How did she know that Wang Qing was not an ordinary craftsman, but a craftsman from Prince Zhan's Mansion, who could build even the Imperial City.

If shopkeeper Wang hadn't said it was the prince's request, he would never have ignored it.

After seeing the drawings that he had never seen before in his life, he was willing to work for her.

"Miss Wen." Wang Qing walked forward with a smile on his face.

"Master Wang, I'm done."

He briefly explained the drawings to Wang Qing and determined the steps to build a house.

Wen Xi handed over a group of villagers who had signed up to Wang Qing.

Although I can draw blueprints, I am really a layman when it comes to actually building a building.

After settling this matter, someone informed her that meat and vegetables had been sent to the town.

Wen Xi took a few cooks and moved everything in.

One of the people looked at half of the pigs on the chopping board and said, "Hey boss, have these half of the pigs been cooked today?"

They had never seen such a battle in their lives, and the cooks were frightened.

"That's right!" Wen Xi said with a smile: "Cut some fat and boil it in oil, and cook the rest today! Leave half of the ribs for me." She wanted to take it back to her mother and the others.

"Okay!" After hearing this, several people realized that there was meat to eat today!

It's great to work for the Wen family. You get wages and delicious meals.

It’s more abundant than the Chinese New Year!

"Master, why don't you save some for tomorrow."

A cook said in embarrassment: "Otherwise there will be no meat to eat tomorrow."

Wen Xi smiled and said, "Half a pig is delivered every day, so you guys can just rest assured."

When several people heard this, they instantly became happy.

Such a beautiful thing could happen.

It would be nice if her house could be built for a while longer. They feel like celebrating the New Year every day.

When the meal started at noon, everyone's eyes widened when they saw the bowls of braised pork, and some people started to wipe the saliva from the corners of their mouths.

"I'm such a bitch! There's so much meat, can't I be dazzled by it!"

"Why do you have hallucinations when you're doing this kind of work?"

The people in Daniu Village are basically poor, and those with better conditions have moved to the town.

Therefore, people who have been living in Daniu Village have no access to oil and water all year round.

If there is a natural disaster or insect infestation, it will be difficult to even eat.

Where have you seen basins of meat?

"You guys have been working hard lately, come and eat!" Wen Xi greeted at the table.

I saw people who just suspected it was an hallucination rushing towards the dining table.

"White rice, white flour cakes! Big steamed buns!" People in Daniu Village were shocked again.

This Wen family is richer than the rich man!

How much money do you get for so much grain and meat?

Seeing that the people next to me were already using their chopsticks, I quickly held the steamed bun in my hand for fear of being snatched away.

Wen Kang secretly pulled his daughter aside and asked softly: "Xi'er, how much money does such a good meal cost?"

Wen Xi naturally understood what her father meant and was afraid that she would lose all the money she had finally earned.

He smiled and comforted: "Dad, don't worry, my daughter has sense."

Wen Xi didn't do it to show off her wealth. She naturally knew how much money it would cost to eat like this, but if she wanted to attract a group of people, she had to give them enough sweetness.

Now that she has bought hundreds of acres of land, she cannot farm it herself, so she must hire someone.

She could go to town to buy them through Yapo, but it was difficult to buy someone who knew how to grow crops.

At most, I just buy a few servants and that's all.

Therefore, when it comes to hiring people to farm the land, she still wants to find them in the village.

Now letting them eat and drink well is the first step to win people's hearts.

"Okay, as long as you have an idea."

Seeing that his daughter said this, Wen Kang said no more.

After all, Wenxi is taking care of these things now, but his father agreed.

At this time, a boy came over and said that he was coming to Fubu Village and asked her to go to the town.

"What can happen to this Buzhuang?" Wenxi and Wang Qing borrowed a carriage, and took Wenkang with them to the town.

Arriving at the gate of Buzhuang, Wen Xi told him, "Dad, just wait for me in the car."

Wen Kang nodded, still looking at the carriage he was riding in. This was the first time in his life that he was riding in a carriage.

In the past, let alone riding in a car, I had never even touched a horse.

He couldn't help but sigh that it had only been a few days since Xi'er woke up, but there had been such an earth-shaking change.

I took advantage of my daughter.

When Wen Xi came to Buzhuang, Zhao Fulai hurriedly invited him to the second floor.

"Miss Wen, you are here." Zhao Fulai happily asked her to sit down.

"What's wrong with Shopkeeper Zhao?"

"I'm here to ask you to get the dividends." He took out the account book and the banknotes he had prepared: "Miss Wen, take a look."

Wen Xi flipped through it and closed the account book: "I won't read the account book. I believe that shopkeeper Zhao will not cheat me."

"Miss Wen is a generous person, this is the dividend, you click it, it's seven thousand taels in total." Zhao Fulai smiled so hard that he couldn't see his eyes: "I didn't expect that during this period, Buzhuang made a profit of seven thousand taels, thanks to your idea."

Wen Xi was also a little surprised. She didn't expect there would be so much profit. Giving her 7,000 taels meant a profit of 14,000 taels. Even a cloth shop in the capital would probably not have such a turnover.

Seeing Wen Xi's surprise, Zhao Fulai explained: "There is a cloth shop in the county. Now, we have been ordering from our cloth shop for a long time. Every time we get a lot of goods, there are many dignitaries in the county, and their sales are very good."

So that was it. Wen Xi put the banknotes away and suddenly thought of a good idea.
