The Yu family's shop business is booming, and the conflicts and anxiety caused by the drought in Yanzhou have also been alleviated a lot.

Many businessmen began to become jealous and jealous, and often secretly inquired about the source of the Yu family's supplies. Some wealthy people even wanted to directly invest in the Yu family's shops, promising all kinds of benefits.

Naturally, Yu Yalan would not be honest about everything, and it would be impossible for her to enter into a joint venture with outsiders.

These materials all come from the merit dimension. How could she let people know such a fatal secret?

Even Song Xi doesn’t know the existence of space yet!

Of course, she is willing to trust Song Xi and share all her secrets with him, but when talking about space, she must explain her origins. After explaining her origins, she may also introduce modern society, and then explain various things by analogy.

She really didn't know where to start, so she simply let things take their course and waited for the time to be honest.

However, the businessmen's questioning also reminded her that it was time to buy a Zhuangzi.

Buy a few fertile farms near mountains and rivers, and then disguise the goods in the shops as products from the farms. This way, you will have an honest source, and it should not be a problem to deal with doubts from the outside world.

But according to usual experience, most farmhouses are unable to meet her requirements. Yanzhou is so poor and backward, it is even more difficult to find a satisfactory farm.

The best way is to buy a piece of land to build a villa, and then it can be personalized according to her preferences and needs.

The house in the city only has three entrances, and the Song and Yu families with dozens of secret guards cannot live in it. Moreover, there are many people coming and going in the city, and there are many informants, which is not conducive to their discussion and planning.

If they could build a large villa in the suburbs, where all the masters and servants of the two families could live together, there would be a suitable place for daily discussions and training, and whatever plans they wanted to carry out would be more private and safe.

Yu Yalan made a plan and planned to implement it immediately. She took her younger brother and started looking for an ideal mountainous area.

When Yu Hongxuan heard that he wanted to build his own villa, he felt very excited inside. However, his sister's designs were almost all based on Song Xi's needs, so he was a little jealous.

"The martial arts arena, the meeting hall and the secret guard dormitory were all built for my brother-in-law, right? What about me? Why don't you arrange a few exclusive areas for me? Am I not your dearest brother?"

Yu Yalan immediately gave him a blow.

"Why are you so anxious? The land has not been purchased yet, and the design drawings have not been finalized. It is too early to talk about the specific layout. When the construction of the villa begins, a small medical center will be built for you, and it will also be equipped with the most advanced surgeries.

Office and research room, let you give full play to your talents, after all, you are my dearest stupid brother!"

Yu Hongxuan smiled with satisfaction, but his expression immediately changed after he reacted.

"What stupid brother? Do you deserve a beating? If I had come out first, you would have called me big brother right now!"

Yu Yalan looked at him expressionlessly, her dark eyes staring into Yu Hongxuan's scalp.

I'm scared!

He immediately changed the topic to other areas.

"There have been a lot of refugees in Yanzhou recently. I heard they all fled from Longxi. Some have even started selling their sons and daughters. This drought is more serious than we expected."

Speaking of this, Yu Yalan couldn't help but sigh.

"After the fall of Ganzhou, many people were displaced and their livelihood was precarious. Coupled with the raging drought this year and reduced field harvests, even more people were forced to flee their hometowns. Yanzhou is close to the northwest border, only two miles away from the Tatar territory.

Due to the distance from the government, many wounded and disabled soldiers will choose to die of old age in Yanzhou, and there are many orphans and widowers who have lost the support of their families."

Thinking of the tragic situation she had seen these days, she decided to lend a helping hand.

"Why don't we open a sales home and a free school to take in these orphans and the elderly, so that the orphans and widowers can have someone to rely on, and the poor children can learn a skill."

Yu Hongxuan nodded, very much in favor of this proposal.

"In this way, we can accumulate more merit, and we can also use this to cultivate talents for Song Xi. It is not easy to compete with the royal family, and the talent reserve may start here."

Yu Yalan also thought of this aspect.

They really lack all kinds of manpower now. If they can use this as an opportunity to recruit a large number of talents, they will be able to carry out any plan in the future with ease.

Of course, they will respect everyone's wishes and will not force others to serve the Song family. People who are destined will gather together, and their first task is to build a platform.

After making the decision, the two took action immediately.

Sister Yu Yalan is responsible for the preparation of the villa, while Mu Yang and Chi Xue are concerned about the Salesian Home and the Free School.

The two groups of people worked separately to implement the plan as soon as possible.

…

At noon that day, Yu Yalan was preparing to go to Liuhe Mountain to survey the terrain with her brother.

As soon as I walked out of Yujia Rice Shop, I saw the owner of the teahouse opposite walking towards me with a smile.

"Oh! Mr. Yu's family is busy with things, but I have been waiting for a long time!"

Yu Yalan got on the carriage with a cold face, not intending to pay attention to this messy old profiteer.

Yu Hongxuan put on a polite and distant business smile and took the initiative to stand up for his sister.

"If you have any important matters, just tell me directly! If it's a joint venture again, then we'll stick to the answer we gave last time."

This teahouse owner was very arrogant and stubborn. He often came to inquire about the Yu family's sources of supplies. If he failed to inquire, he planned a joint venture. To this end, he even tried to bribe the shopkeeper of the rice shop. His various tricks were really annoying!

The teahouse owner's face stiffened for a moment, but then he smiled more openly, with a shrewd calculation on his face, and still refused to give up persuading the Yu family.

"Doctor Yu, you should give your sister a good advice. The opportunity to make a fortune is right in front of you. How can you waste everything like this? Let's join forces to make this business bigger and stronger. We can make a lot of money within a month.

! When the time comes to lie on the mountain of gold and silver and feel at ease, why do you need to run around and work like this?"

Yu Hongxuan twitched the corner of his mouth with disdain and smiled sarcastically: "Boss Wang, these mountains of gold and silver are made of human blood. Do you really dare to sleep peacefully on them? The world is already so difficult, so there is no need to squeeze the poor people anymore.

Is that right? A gentleman loves money and gets it in a wise way, but it is better to accumulate some evil virtue for oneself."

The teahouse owner looked gloomy, and Yu Hongxuan's sarcasm made him very embarrassed.

"Young students are always prone to have some unrealistic and naive ideas. Only when a disaster is imminent do they regret it! Since you don't want to disclose the sources of food, land and water, I can't force you. If we can cooperate next time

I hope the Yu family can seize this opportunity."

Yu Hongxuan gave the other party a meaningful look, then got on the carriage and urged to set off.

The teahouse owner kept staring at the departing carriage, his sinister eyes seeming to be quenched with poison.
