Chapter 86: Separate Actions
"But in that case, it's even more cumbersome to deal with. And I also think that Qiu County Order, that is, my cheap father, should not have any official authority. ”
"When I saw him come out that day, there were no people who saluted him respectfully or anything, so even if we ran to him to negotiate, and we were able to sign a contract to prepare for cooperation, it is estimated that not too many people were willing to cooperate."
Qiu Yan is also very depressed now, and the difficulties they are facing seem to be much more than they imagined.
"What can I do? Do you have to rely on us and the people we brought to help in the future? Why can't the local officials do anything at all? At this point, even Ji Feifan felt a little annoyed.
Although their local magistrate is also greedy for money, they maintain close ties with many merchants.
Once a good thing is found that is truly convenient and beneficial to the people, it is also quite supportive.
It's not like the county order here, so I don't pay attention to them at all.
It's no wonder that this Qiguang Mansion has a nice name and a huge area, but it doesn't even have a slightly able industry, which is really embarrassing!
Hearing the discussion of the three of them, Shen Fengxing also walked in from outside.
After learning the ins and outs of the matter, he frowned tightly and looked at Lu Chiye embarrassedly.
"Brother, sister-in-law, what can I do about this? In this way, it is too difficult to develop express delivery in Qiguang Province! And because of the suppression of those people, our business has been affected now, which is not a good sign. ”
Even the young Shen Fengxing was wondering if they had made a wrong decision before.
If only I hadn't come to this inexplicable place of Qiguang Mansion before.
He is a little younger in the end, and his ability to hide his thoughts is not as good as Qiu Yan and the two of them.
Thinking like this, I accidentally said what was in my heart.
"If we are still staying in Qingchuan City now, maybe in this short period of time, we will have developed the express delivery business in other directions."
"And those who are officials may not be able to coerce us!"
"Actually...... I also have a little regret now. Qiu Yan used his index finger and thumb to pull out a little distance, and let out a long sigh.
"I suddenly thought that if we didn't agree at that time, as long as we found a reasonable reason to excuse ourselves, the people above couldn't blame too harshly."
"I really feel a little uncomfortable being like this."
After saying that, he fell silent.
During this time, after she and Lu Chiye led the workers over, they also inspected many places.
To be honest, it took a lot of manpower and material resources.
But I never thought that such a big town would still face a hundred wastes waiting to be rebuilt!
The only thing that can make people feel hopeful is that the people above are also actively trying to find ways to build.
Although the road outside is difficult to walk, the workers who build the road have never rested, and they persevered no matter the wind or rain.
Those villagers who live in remote areas are also miserable, and can only barely rely on the industry in the fields to make ends meet.
Thinking about living better is simply a fool's dream.
Qiu Yan was really unbearable, these villagers had worked hard in the fields all their lives, but they couldn't take out the things they had worked so hard to grow.
If you can't finish it at home, it may rot like this.
Day after day, when is it the end? If we don't actively develop industries, won't we continue to exacerbate poverty?
In the end, the two of them have been together in their past and present lives, and they have been together for so long, and Lu Chiye still knows a little bit about Qiu Yan.
Looking at her like this, you know that she has fallen into a dead end, and she can't get out for a while.
Holding her hand tightly, he didn't care about Shen Fengxing and the two of them were here, gently comforting her.
"It's okay, since we have arrived at Qiguang Mansion, it can be regarded as fate."
"It's all here, of course it's impossible to return in vain! Are you the kind of person who will give up easily? ”
"Not really!" Qiu Yan was excited by this agitation method, and immediately came back to his senses and clenched his fists hard.
"What you said makes sense, since we have come here, we must make a big career vigorously, and we must not smash the signboard of our Lu family!"
"Madame is right to think so, now I have some ideas, we can try it first."
As he spoke, Lu Chiye arranged for Shen Fengxing and them to sit at a table together, prepared paper and pencils, and began to write their plans.
In the first step, he planned to take Shen Fengxing out in person, specifically to find a better place to grow poultry, livestock, vegetables, melons and fruits.
Let's see what the prices are like over there, and it's best to trade with them in person.
Even if you suffer a little more losses in the early stage, you can buy things back and you can't sell them for the time being.
As long as you can convince those villagers that doing business with them will bring you profits in the future.
In this way, in the future, they will find a way to open up this road, and they can send things to other places, so that the credibility of the villagers will naturally be greatly improved, which will facilitate future development.
At the same time, Qiu Yan also had a way to plan to act separately from Lu Chiye.
He took Shen Fengxing to trade with the villagers, and as for her, he went with Ji Feifan to see in person what the character of the workers who were sent over to repair the road was.
If the roads near Keiguang Province can be completed before the construction deadline, then the development of subsequent industries will become much easier and easier.
Therefore, after deliberately returning to the room and changing into an extremely simple azure dress, he brought out some scattered silver and took the initiative to tell Lu Chiye about his plan.
Lu Chiye naturally believed in her very much, and with Ji Feifan by her side, a bodyguard with strong martial arts, there was nothing to worry about.
waved at her, took Shen Fengxing and the two family members by himself, and went to the more densely populated places where the villagers lived.
On the way, Qiu Yan and Ji Feifan were discussing things.
"This time, the most important thing is to convince those workers that we can still start with letters and develop our express delivery business."
"If the first few people who eat crabs find that it is indeed beneficial to do express delivery business on our side, they can spread the news later."
"Madame, you have a point. Moreover, these workers built roads in this area, and the people in the vicinity also had a lot of respect for them. If you let them spread the word, the effect will be better. ”
Ji Feifan has been with Qiu Yan for a while, and now his brain has become much more flexible.
As soon as she finished speaking, she reflected why Qiu Yan did this.
Qiu Yan couldn't help but glance at her approvingly, and praised her generously.
"Yes, you're getting smarter now, that's what I thought. This first batch of people who do business with us must find someone with reliable character, we can't always suffer! That's not a good deal. ”
The two talked and laughed, and then they went to the place where the workers gathered.
As early as when they were still a little far away, they had already heard the sound of ping-pong.
When Qiuyan and the others came over, they found that those workers were already wearing robes and a full set of rain gear, busy with the things under their hands, and they were working together.
Although the efficiency is not very high, they are extremely serious in their work.
After taking a closer look, Qiu Yan couldn't help but be very satisfied.
Therefore, after inquiring around the side, I directly found the leading man who was in charge of building the road here.
After showing him his identity, he looked at him generously.
"Brother Zhao, I won't hide it from you, this time I brought people over with my husband, and I came to help build Qiguang Temple on the orders of the adults above."
"Of course, all this we do is for the sake of the local people, and we hope that Brother Zhao can actively cooperate with us."
However, after all, only Qiu Yan and the two of them came over today.
Ji Feifan was particularly worried that she would be looked down upon by the person in charge, and praised her in front of the person in charge next to her, her face full of confidence and pride.
"Brother Zhao, this is not my nonsense, if you are well-informed, you should know the reputation of the Lu family."
"Since our family master and wife started doing business, they are very famous in the whole Qingchuan City! Several nearby towns also know the name of the Lu family. ”
"Moreover, the courier business that was particularly famous some time ago was made by our family master and wife, and ah, we also cooperate closely with the Qin family, a century-old family in Qingchuan City."
"Many strange things are made by the head of the family and his wife, Brother Zhao should have heard of it, right?"
The person in charge looked at Ji Feifan's appearance of a lotus flower, smiled innocently, and took the initiative to answer.
"I have indeed heard that a relative of my family lives not far from Qingchuan City, and said that I have heard of it before, that magical express delivery business."
"But I don't have anything to give at home, I haven't experienced it before."
"That's a pity, if Brother Zhao's relatives have sent something to the courier point, they will know what a magical thing it is. Make sure you use it once, and you'll all say yes! ”
Ji Feifan chattered beside him, introducing this Brother Zhao.
Qiu Yan took this opportunity to observe the situation nearby.
I found that a few workers were eavesdropping on the movement here with their ears pricked up at this moment, so I deliberately raised my voice and negotiated with the person in charge.
"Brother Zhao, I know when I look at you like this, you are definitely a loyal and honest person."
"It's not easy for you to work here with the workers. As you know, isn't the reason why the above arranged for you to come here to build the road is because although Qiguang Mansion covers a weak area, it is far away from the outside world? ”
"You have taken so many brothers to build roads here, and you must have rarely had the opportunity to interact with people in your family, right? And how can you get your wages back? ”
