Ding Erzhu and his wife, as well as Madame Zhou, Land Officer and his wife were all helping them out, so everything went well there.
Ding Erzhu and Ms. Zhou were down-to-earth people and the Land Officer and his wife might try and do some tricks on them. But Madame Zhou was smart, and she was older than everyone else. So, if she said something as an elderly woman and was reasonable enough, no one would dare counter her.
The Land Officer and his wife were both people who understood what was best for them. They were not able to trick the couple and simply decided to work hard and devotedly instead.
Therefore, everything went on smoothly.
When Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan went over, it would take three more days before the land was settled.
Shao Yunduan expressed his gratitude and appreciation towards the Land Officer with a smile. “You are very reliable. We will probably need you to hire some more people to help us with the tea tree planting, also for weeding, trimming, picking and so on.”
The Land Officers eyes sparkled, and he said with a smile, “Okay, okay, Young Master Shao! Don’t worry, as long as you entrust us to do the work, we will definitely make sure all is done well, and you will be satisfied.”
The Land Officer could not help but feel relieved that he did not cause any unpleasantness in this task, otherwise the long-term work work would not be entrusted to them again.
Due to this assignment, almost every household had managed to earn some money. They were able to afford a few new clothes, blankets, snacks and some other things, which were very beneficial for them.
Shao Yunduan nodded at him with a smile.
The Land Officer was definitely going to tell the Zhang Village about this.
In order to have a long collaboration, they knew clearly what they should do.
After the Land Officer left, Shao Yunduan, Qiao Xuan spoke with Ding Erzhu and Ms. Zhou about building a new house.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan already had the plan ready. They were going to build two yards and two wing yards.
The smaller wing yard was for storage of farming tools and food.
The bigger wing yard was to be used as the processing workshop and storing tea leaves. The creeping figs could be processed here, so the house needed to be built well.
Qiao Xuan even decided that when the house was constructed, they would buy two guarding dogs for Ding Erzhu to keep for patrolling and safeguarding the area.
Moreover, the front yard could be spared for Ding Erzhu’s family to live in.
Outside the yard, she wanted to make a vegetable garden where a patch of fruit trees would be built, as well as a 2 mu pool for fish, lotus roots and water chestnut.
They could even raise some ducks and geese.
Some chicken as well.
They would even come over to enjoy a few leisurely days.
When the house was finished, the craftsmen could come and start the construction here. They were definitely going to finish the construction before the New Year.
Ding Erzhu and his family did not need to worry about the hut that would leak wind.
At that time, Madame Zhou could help to take care of the grandchildren and keep an eye on the workers.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan believed that it was a good plan.
Madame Zhou was smart and capable. She could watch the workers for them whilst teaching Ms. Zhou how to deal with the situation, so Ms. Zhou could learn these skills for future tasks..
