Xue Darong could not help but whisper to his father, Xue Da, “Dad, are you really not going to persuade Dafu to reject the contract? There are so many people in the village, Look at everyone’s enthusiasm. In a year, how many acres of barren land do you think will be cleared? How will we be able to buy all of that?”

To be honest, he was a little shocked when he heard his brother agreeing to the contract.

Xue Da also whispered, “What are you worrying about? I’m not worried. Don’t worry, I’ve asked Dafu. Dafu said that Sifu, Xue Yan, and Jiang Yue all agreed to it. We all know that nothing will happen when these three agree to something.”

When Xue Darong heard that Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Xue Sifu all agreed, only then did he relax.

The three smartest people in that family must have not seen a problem with it. Since there was no reason to worry, he finally felt at ease.

Although Xue Darong and Xue Da’s voices were very soft, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were not far from them, so they managed to hear everything that these two said. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at the mountains in the distance.

As long as it was a shallow mountain area, there were many people happily exploring the land and cutting down wood.

There were also people who were exploring the barren areas that weren’t on the mountains.

There were so many people that it looked as busy as a bustling street.

It was no wonder that their uncle was worried.

Seeing that their uncle was relieved because of what Xue Da had said, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan did not feel the need to speak up and explain why they wanted to agree to it. They just subconsciously looked at each other and smiled.

They waited for Erfu to tie up the carriage and rush over before they boarded the carriage.

They were sitting in the same carriage as Hongyan, Xue Shi, and Hongguo. This carriage was driven by Erfu, but Xue Shi, this little brat, did not stop crying. When Hongyan carried him, he stretched out his two little hands towards the two kids with all his might, wanting to escape. It was as if he was playing a game and he wanted to catch them. His eyes were brightly sparkling as he mumbled. They were silent for a long time, but they still cooperated and got closer.

The little brat — who was about to fall out of Hongyan’s arms — finally caught them. He immediately giggled and was extremely happy.

The smile in her eyes immediately disappeared.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other, and then, they looked up at the sky in unison.

When they arrived at Xue Ji t s shop in the county, it was already lunchtime.

The firecrackers would only be set off at noon for the real opening.

Sifu had already arranged everything. They were just waiting for the right time to open.

Dagui was also there because he was transferred here by Sifu. This shop had more people. Sifu was confident that Dagui’s shop in the county can sell more rice noodles than the shop in the town. He placed Dagui here because he knew Dagui would be able to attract customers well.

Sifu had even transferred He Jinshan’s mother, Yunxin, over. They had to transfer someone who was proficient in making all kinds of rice noodles to oversee the process.

Although the shop was small, it was not enough to have two reliable staff handling the management. Sifu also transferred two people from the workshop, a man and a woman. The man followed Dagui, and the woman followed Yunxin.

Now that Xue Daxi and Hongguo had come to the shop, Sifu would also stay in the county for the time being. The shop in the county should have enough manpower.

Since Dagui and Yunxin had come to the county, the shops in town were now not short of manpower. Sifu also transferred people from the workshop to work in the shops in town.

It wasn’t noon yet, so Xue Dafu and the others went to look around the place as soon as they arrived.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan also followed behind and looked around.

This shop was quite small and it only had two tables. There was also a counter beside it, where one could sell rice noodles and collect money. This shop was also two-story, and there was a small attic above..
