Chapter 139, the scenery of Dog Village After hearing Ji Caiyan's answer, Dahu looked Ji Caiyan and Shang Li up and down.
The first reaction was not excitement.
But doubts.
why? Are these two people planning something?
But Gouzhuang is the poorest village in Shiliba Township. Every household cannot even afford a wife, and no one is willing to marry into this poor village.
You can only find Huoya to buy people.
"We are serious businessmen. Anyway, you won't lose anything if we cooperate. If it succeeds, everyone in the village will become rich."
"This has only advantages and no disadvantages for you."
Ji Caiyan touched Xiao Zhu Zhu on his shoulder and said word by word.
After all, I still want to try to save this village full of evil people.
Changing the folk customs here will not only save more innocent girls.
You may also gain a lot of power of faith.
She lacks this.
"it is good."
Dahu thought for a moment and agreed.
Anyway, in their own territory, the two brothers and sisters in front of them invested money to open a workshop, and it was not the people of Gouzhuang who suffered.
The two people's demeanor didn't look like ordinary people, but like noble people.
If the village really becomes wealthy, it will be easier for the young people in the village to find wives.
"Why don't you take us to the village first and choose a suitable place to build a workshop. When the fruits are produced, the workshop can start working."
Ji Caiyan glanced at the top of the tree in the distance and could see the woman who had just escaped still hugging the tree and shaking.
She wouldn't be able to hold on if the discussion continued here.
"this way please."
Dahu noticed that Shang Li beside him was very powerful and had some skills, so he was very polite to Ji Caiyan.
There is a shortage of girls in the village, but Ji Caiyan, a girl, really can't move.
Ji Caiyan raised her feet and walked in the direction of Gouzhuang.
On the way, he gave a signal to the secret guard.
Let him save the woman in the tree.
After walking through a rugged mountain road, and then walking on a dirt road mixed with mud, we arrived at the Dog Village.
Ji Caiyan took a look at her and Master Shang Li's shoes. They were already stained with a lot of mud, and there was also a lot of dust on the corners of their skirts.
It can be seen that people in the village rarely maintain the roads they often take.
There were no cement roads in ancient times, but rural people also had their own ways of maintaining dirt roads.
Li Zheng of Huai Chai Village once led the young people in the village to pave the road and sprinkled some stones on the ground.
At least it won't be muddy when it rains.
The houses in Gouzhuang are dilapidated. At a glance, none of them are brick houses, and all are mud walls or thatched houses.
Ji Caiyan once thought that Huaichai Village, a place where birds had no shit, was poor enough, but she didn't expect that Dog Village was even worse.
"There is a large piece of land available at the east end of the village, which is also close to the village's orchard. It would be perfect for building a workshop."
Dahu led Ji Caiyan and the others through the village.
It was already noon, and many people were squatting on the road with their home rice bowls to eat.
Their rice bowls are not made of ceramics, but wooden bowls. They are so crude that they look like they were made by themselves.
Just for eating, make do with it.
They squatted at the door and saw Ji Caiyan staring straight at Ji Caiyan when he passed by them.
Forgot to eat the food in my hands.
There were several men who wanted to talk to Dahu but were stopped by Dahu's eyes.
Dahu looks young and junior, but he has become the upright person in the village by his own strength.
Everyone in the village listens to him and he has absolute authority.
With Dahu's eyes stopping him, Ji Caiyan didn't hear any inappropriate words.
However, Ji Caiyan still felt very uncomfortable.
The eyes that fell on her all seemed to be asking the same question - how much money can this girl buy home as a wife?
The last time she was stared at by so many people was when she and her father, queen, mother and concubine had just arrived at Huai Chai that time, the people in Huai Chai Village were still wary of them, fearing that they were heinous criminals who had been exiled.
And Gouzhuang's gaze is one of strong possessiveness.
After passing through the village, we finally arrived at the east end of the village.
That piece of land is suitable for building a workshop.
Ji Caiyan's heart was not on this land, but on the scene he had just passed by the village.
Along the way, almost all the villagers I saw were men.
The population is less than half that of Wastewood Village, but the ratio of men to women is seriously imbalanced.
Everyone has a sallow complexion and is as skinny as a monkey.
A village where it is difficult to eat.
"This land originally belonged to Zhang Gouzi's family. He got seriously ill and died a few years ago. He didn't give birth to a son. He was just a girl. Later, no one took care of it and she starved to death."
"This land will be freed up and returned to the village. Do you think that's okay?"
While Dahu was speaking, he also glanced at several men not far away who were looking this way with warning eyes.
They are all bachelors in the village who have not married a wife.
I saw a girl being brought into the village and wanted to ask the price.
If the big tiger's eyes hadn't twitched, those bachelors would have started fighting and getting ready to rob.
"This place is fine. Just follow the price stipulated by the government and register it tomorrow."
Shang Li stood aside, blocking the sight of the bachelors.
Ji Caiyan took out a banknote and handed it directly to Dahu.
Dahu stared at the banknote in his hand with wide eyes.
This was the first time he had seen such a large amount of money.
"The remaining silver will be given to you to build a workshop. From now on, you will work for me to manage the villagers in the village, and you will receive one tael of silver a month."
While Ji Caiyan was speaking, he vaguely heard the woman's whimpering.
Listen slightly.
It could be heard coming from a thatched house.
Mostly they were bought.
"Good good."
Dahu suddenly became excited and answered three good words in a row.
There was also a touch of greed in his eyes.
The two brothers and sisters in front of them were too generous, giving them so much money before the autumn harvest had even started.
The salary is one tael of silver a month...
What a big fat sheep!
If, he meant if, if he accidentally came into contact with Ji Caiyan, Ji Caiyan's reputation would be affected by him.
Is it possible to just...
Then does he also have what Ji Caiyan has?
Although he had bought a wife before, it didn't affect anything.
She was just bought to carry on the family line, not a legitimate daughter-in-law.
"I believe you can be a good steward, but before that, you and my people need to "learn" for a while."
Ji Caiyan naturally noticed the impurity in Dahu's eyes.
In Gouzhuang, Ji Caiyan was not prepared to trust anyone.
The folk customs are not simple, and they are not as cute as the people in Huai Chai Village.
Because Dahu has an upright status, it is easier to do things in the village.
However, what Ji Caiyan wanted was not just to build a workshop, but also to change the folk customs here.
Changing folk customs naturally starts with Dahu.
Ask for a recommendation ticket.
