Early in the morning, while Xiaoduo was still sleeping, Aunt Zhou came.

"Xiao Duo, you are still sleeping. I have returned from sending Mimi off."

"I slept late last night, I'm getting up now."

"I called a few good farm workers nearby. Two are from the Li family across the village, and two are distant cousins ​​from my natal family. You can rest assured that they will do their job."

"That's great, thank you Aunt Zhou."

After a while, several big farm men came.

Xiao Duo looked at their strong muscles, and she thought that she had suffered a big loss when she and Aunt Zhou opened up wasteland last time.

The leader, a round-faced man in his early forties, began to introduce himself.

"I am Li Xinhua, and this is my brother Li Jianguo."

Aunt Zhou also introduced her distant cousin.

"This is my cousins ​​Zhou Jinshan and Zhou Yinshan."

"Hello, uncles," Xiao Duo said.

Xiaoduo took them to the barren mountain behind and introduced,

"This is a barren mountain contracted by me. I will prepare Chinese medicinal materials in the back. However, there are many rocks on this mountain. I need your help. Transport the large stones down the mountain and then pave some easy-to-walk roads up the mountain. I don't know the work done in the village.

You can decide what the price is."

"Two hundred yuan a day, no need to provide food for us, I'll see if we can finish it in about a week." Li Jianguo often does casual work for others and is very experienced.

"No problem, thank you uncles for your hard work. I also need to build a fence. What materials do I need to buy?"

"Build a fence?" Zhou Jinshan was puzzled. "Although your mountain is not big, it still has forty or fifty acres. How can anyone build such a big fence? Moreover, this mountain is behind your house and no one goes there."

"I have a place where I want to grow some precious medicinal materials. Is it safer to surround it?"

"You just need to open a place where precious medicinal materials are grown and surround it with a fence. And you also have to pave the road, which is very expensive." Li Xinhua said.

"It makes sense, just do as you say. Let me know what materials you need to buy later," Xiaoduo said.

"By the way, you have to rent an excavator for land reclamation. It can plow an acre of land in two hours. It takes almost 100 hours to plow 50 acres of mountainous land."

"What about the price?"

"There is an old Liu family in the west end of the village. Let me ask you." Li Jianguo started to call.

"Two hundred and one hours, 20,000 yuan together, do you think that's okay?" Li Jianguo said.

“Does the excavator require labor fees?”

"No need, he will provide labor."

This is still a quite large project, and it will cost about 25,000 yuan not counting the cost of materials. Fortunately, I found someone to do it, otherwise Li Xiaoduo wouldn't be able to finish it even if he had to wait until the end of the year.

Xiaoduo gave them thirty thousand yuan.

"A lot of it is a deposit for materials. When you see something good, buy it from me."

***

After arranging the land reclamation, Li Xiaoduo rushed to the store without stopping. Shen Cangzhu was coming to collect ginseng today.

Xiaoduo was very happy when he thought that he would soon earn three million yuan.

After a while, Shen Houpu came in.

He looked around and smiled innocently when he saw Li Xiaoduo.

"Sister Xiaoduo, you are quite good. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs."

"This is just a small shop that sells simple medicinal materials. It can't be compared with your shop. Where is your brother?"

"Oh, my brother went to the provincial capital for business and asked me to collect the ginseng. I will transfer the money to your account, okay?"

"No problem. Here are the medicinal materials, please keep them." Xiao Duo took out the medicine box and contained ten large ginseng plants wrapped in paper.

"Sister Xiaoduo, I also graduated from a university of traditional Chinese medicine. I followed my grandfather in the shop and collected a lot of medicinal materials since I was a child. Your ginseng is really good."

"It's great that your brother lowered my price." Xiao Duo smiled.

"Here, I don't understand business matters, hehe. But last time, the ginseng seemed to have been sold for two million." Houpu scratched his head and said with a smile.

"What!" Xiao Duo screamed. This Shen Cangzhu is really a profiteer. He looks so gentle on the outside!

"Did I say the wrong thing?" Hou Pu looked at Xiao Duo and his expression changed.

"It's okay, just put the medicine away." Xiaoduo gritted his teeth and said.

"Sister Xiaoduo, you can bring any good medicinal materials you have in the future. We are going to expand our business in the future."

"Really? You made a fortune selling ginseng?" Xiaoduo said sourly.

"No, it's us..., it's a long story, I'll tell you slowly in the future." Hopu thought that he couldn't say anything else.

Hou Pu was holding the medicine and preparing to leave when a beautiful woman with long hair reaching her waist and charming silky eyes walked in.

"Hey, beautiful girl, when did the handsome guy come to your store? Please introduce me to him."

Xiao Duo took a look and saw that this was not Hu Lichun.

"This is my customer, here to buy medicinal materials."

"What medicinal materials are they? Can I take a look?" Hu Lichun said and came close to Shen Houpu, staring at him with her big sparkling eyes.

Shen Houpu smelled the fragrance of Hu Lichun's body and looked at this strange beauty, his face turned red and he could not speak.

"Okay, okay." He said and was about to open the medicine box.

Li Xiaoduo immediately pressed the medicine box.

"You can't look at it, it's a business secret. Are you okay?"

"Can't you come and take a stroll if you have nothing to do?" Hu Lichun twisted her waist and walked two steps in the store.

"Handsome guy, can you add me on WeChat?" she said to Shen Houpu with a smile.

"Of course." Shen Houpu said and immediately took out his mobile phone.

After adding WeChat, Shen Houpu went back in a daze.

"You're here to talk about handsome guys, right?" Xiaoduo said angrily.

"I came to see you but you still didn't add me as a friend. I'm so sad." After saying this, Hu Lichun seemed to have no bones and lay on the counter.

"What's going on?" Li Xiaoduo said seriously.

"I know you have good stuff. I want the ginseng he bought. The price is up to you." After saying that, he winked and looked at Li Xiaoduo.

"How do you know?" Xiaoduo was surprised.

"Of course I have my own channels." Hu Lichun looked at Xiao Duo, "Hey, it seems you don't know yet."

"It has spread among the rich circles in Jiang City. Shen Qianshan, the chairman of Shen's Pharmaceuticals, was about to die. Who knew that the century-old ginseng found by an illegitimate son saved his life? Now everyone is looking for ginseng in private. .You still don’t know who Shen Cangzhu and Shen Houpu are?"

Xiaoduo was dumbfounded, no wonder they were so generous, it turned out they wanted to sell it at a high price!

"It just so happens that I also have some rich friends who want to buy ginseng. You can sell me some."

Seeing Li Xiaoduo's embarrassed look, she said, "You won't sell everything to them, right?"

"I can sell it to you, but you can't tell me where I bought it from. The price is 600,000 per plant, and I only have two."

"No problem." Hu Lichun agreed readily.

"Do you have any more powerful medicinal ingredients?"

"More powerful? What effect do you want?"

"The kind that can heal human flesh and bones?"

"Are you kidding me? Where can I find such medicinal materials?" Xiao Duo felt confused.
