e really hungry! If that pile of grass could be exchanged for food, even a little bit would be better than nothing. At least there would be something to eat. The weather was cold, and they consumed a..."Luo Shen is right, that's what it means. It seems you are very concerned about current events."

The leading man's eyes lit up.

"As an old woman, I have nothing to do at home. I listen to the radio while embroidering. That's all I know; I can't say anything more specific."

"Aunt Luo, do you think the supplies in town are sufficient now Like meat, vegetables, and eggs"

Three people took turns speaking, guiding the flow of conversation.

"It should be enough! I'm from Luojiazhuang, and my family's vegetables, eggs, and grain are all prepared by my brothers on the farm. They don't need tickets, and the things are fresh."

R ripples lowered her voice and said.

"Do you mean the vegetables in town aren't fresh"

"Whether it's fresh or not, you can go and see for yourself. The salesperson's attitude is also very bad. My eldest son came back earlier and complained to me that the food in the unit canteen was bland, but even the vegetables weren't freshly picked from the farm."

He also said that once he helped organize the back kitchen. It was vegetables sent by a vegetable company, and half of them were bad. He had no choice but to throw them away. What a sin!

Ripples shook their heads one after another.

The leading man immediately gave the female assistant a wink, and she understood. She immediately took out her notebook and recorded it.

So, what do you think is a good way to solve this problem

"Oh! As an old woman, I don't understand these things. But I do know that the vegetables in the countryside every year are too much to eat and rot in the fields. Only when a few villages have big markets can they exchange their surplus vegetables and eggs, as well as some mountain goods, at least to avoid needing tickets."

Ripple casually mentioned it.

After the three of them finished their water, they left Ripples' small courtyard.

A month later, the town designated a specific area and, with government funding, built a subsidiary food market. It was centrally planned, with stalls available for rent or purchase, to enrich everyone's "shopping basket".

After the plan was established, the town government immediately took action. Once the news spread, everyone adopted a wait-and-see attitude. However, Ripples had informed the three brothers of Luojiacun beforehand that she would be taking Dabao back to live for two days.

On the weekend, Lian Yi made a day's worth of meals for her youngest son and then, with her eldest grandson, took the tractor back to Luojiazhuang.

After a bumpy ride, she arrived at Luo's village. The youngest daughter of her elder brother's family was already waiting for her at the entrance of the village.

"Aunt, you're finally here! I've been waiting for you for so long."

"Yingzi, was it your father who sent you here"

"Well, Dad said that Auntie came this time for important business."

"Yes, when everyone is here, I'll tell you all the details."

Lianshui supported Yingzi's hand as they walked down from the tractor, holding her grandson's hand and chatting.

"Dabo! You're here!"

"Zhùzi, Sānkuí, Wǔfú, are you all doing well"

Dabao broke free from Lianyi's hand and hopped around to find his friends, looking as if they hadn't seen each other in ages. He even imitated the adults by hugging each other.

"Auntie, you don't have to worry about Dabao. With Zhuzi and them following him, he won't get lost for sure. Let him play for a while first. When it's lunchtime, these little monkeys will come back on their own."

"English," she said, flashing a big smile.

"Okay, this time I brought the eldest here because he said he missed these little buddies and wanted to reconnect. We'll head home first."

When Liang Ri was sitting cross-legged on her older brother's kang, the other two families also arrived, each with their wives and eldest sons. Over a dozen people filled the room, some sitting and some standing, all wanting to know why Liang Ri had come.

"I'm here to tell everyone that a farmers market is going to be built in our town. The government is leading the project. After it's built, we can sell any extra vegetables, eggs, and rice and noodles we have at home there."

What is this now letting private sales do

Luo Erdi spoke first.

"It depends on the situation. In the future, private sales may be allowed. Otherwise, even after the market is built, the stalls will not be sold."

"Big sister, what do you mean"

“You three, it’s best to each buy a stall. Then talk to the people on the farm too, if you can’t afford to buy, rent one. You can sell any excess vegetables, eggs, grain, mountain produce, or fried oil from your homes. As long as the goods are fresh, you’re guaranteed to make money.”

"How much did this cost With the amount of dishes we have, how many days can we sell them for If lots of people buy, it'll be sold out in a few days."

Luo Sandi said.

"Your three families' goods aren't enough to sell, and there are other households in Luojiazhuang. Plus, there are several villages nearby. Wouldn't that be enough"

"You guys will have to work a little harder, going around to collect the goods and then transporting them all to the town. When you're buying, you can try to get a lower price. Then when you sell it, use the prices set by the vegetable company. The difference between those two prices is your profit!"

Ripple reminded.

"What elder sister said makes sense."

Luo Dajie immediately nodded.

"Yes, and all you need to do is ensure the freshness of the eggs and vegetables, you'll definitely be able to sell them. You can also cooperate with other farms in the long term. Our village is near a mountain, and there are many wild fruit trees on the mountain. After they ripen, we can pick them down, which will be another source of income."

"Once we have enough money saved up, you guys can take care of the back mountain, and we can plant fruit trees. We should get an expert to see what kind of trees would grow best here. After three or five years when the trees mature, they'll provide a long-term supply."

Ripples drew a big cake for her three younger brothers.

"That's all I can think of for now. Go back and discuss it with your families. Whether you rent or buy, I think you can both make a profit. It's just a rare opportunity, so I hope you can seize it."

I'll keep an eye out in town and let you know as soon as there's any news. Once you've made a plan, just take action.

“Okay, big sister, let’s all go back and discuss it. We’ll do what we can.”

Luo Erdi chimed in.

After finishing the important matter, Lianyi inquired about the situation of her three younger brothers' families and stayed at Luo's village for a night. The next afternoon, she returned to town.

The next day back in town, Ripple got a new piece of news from her youngest son. Xu Xinya had dropped out of school. Apparently, her family had found a husband for her and she was going to get married and move away.

When Ripples heard this, she sneered secretly. This was a way to leave Qingshan Town and get rid of her to start a new map. That depended on whether she agreed or not.

"I know about this. Just focus on your studies."

The ripples reminded her son to live his life as usual and not seek out Xu Xinyan.

The next day, Lian Yi went to pick up the pre-ordered pork ribs with her basket and met Director Lu Fang.

Both of them had a deep impression on each other. When they met, they greeted each other politely. Ripple was very courteous this time. She first asked about her son's grades and his relationship with his classmates, then casually asked:

"Is Director Lu going to make a home visit now"

"Just came out of Xu Xinya's house."

Lu Fang sighed and shook her head.

"Oh, I remember that girl. My son told me she's dropping out Why would she drop out of school all of a sudden What else can she do at her age besides studying"

"It's because her family situation is difficult and they can't afford for her to continue her studies, so they found her a husband to marry her off."

The town was so small that such things couldn't be kept hidden. So, Lu Fang simply told him directly.

"What Has this child come of age already What was her mother thinking"

Ripple also expressed shock, although she said so. She knew very well that this must be the evil spirit's escape plan.will lend me her body temporarily until I fulfill her wishes. Then, she will return to this body, and I will leave.”"I see.""Do you want to leave here"Instead of dwelling on this issue any further, st...
