Manager Liang and Third Master Zhou were very satisfied.
Old Master Zhou was surprised and gratified.
He did not expect that his daughter could do this.
At the same time, Old Master Zhou looked at Lin Xiaoyue with grat.i.tude.
As his daughter’s father, how could he not know her personality?
Her daughter was definitely guided by Ms. Lin/
“That’s right. When the tools are ready, the preparation work will be considered complete.”
“When the chilies in the manors are produced next year, you can start production.” Third Master Zhou said excitedly.
He had already contacted his father. His father had asked a few uncles for help and had already set up some sales channels.
Then, he only needed to wait for the products to be made, and he would be able to arrange for them to be distributed.
Just based on the deliciousness of those chili products, the sales would definitely be high.
Then, as long as the first batch of chili products sold well, he and his father wouldn’t have to ask others to help them sell.
Those chili products would be the start of their comeback.
Even if they couldn’t, with this business, they didn’t have to worry about money for the rest of their lives.
“Hmm.” Lin Xiaoyue replied.
“Thank you for your help in collecting the lands around the Zhou and Mao’er Manors, as well as hiring guards.”
Manager Liang and Third Master Zhou looked at each other and smiled, telling Lin Xiaoyue not to be polite.
“It’s just that…”
Manager Liang and Third Young Master Zhou looked at her.
“Please don’t hesitate to tell us what you need.”
Third Master Zhou also looked at Lin Xiaoyue with a questioning expression.
Lin Xiaoyue revealed an embarra.s.sed expression and then said to the two of them, “the manors are too big. I’m afraid ten guards won’t be enough.”
Manager Liang and Third Master Zhou frowned.
“The chili peppers are of great value. The operation in the manors must not be leaked to the outside world. Otherwise…” Lin Xiaoyue sighed.
She looked helplessly at the two of them.
Otherwise, their business would be in danger.
“How many people do you need?” Third Master Zhou asked.
Previously, he just wanted to keep an eye on Lin Xiaoyue.
Or rather, he wanted to prevent her from colluding with the Liang Family behind his back.
The manor was no longer his property. He didn’t want to pay more for the manor.
However, according to the information he received, Lin Xiaoyue had made many arrangements for the manor.
She wanted to build pig farms, chicken farms, ponds, manure tanks, and so on.
She even proposed to develop the mountains in the Zhou Manor.
Then, she would hire farmers to work there.
She would need a lot of money.
Although he and Liang Yu had given her 5,000 taels each, based on how she spent it, she probably wouldn’t have much left.
She had spent all her money elsewhere, so she wouldn’t have enough for hiring guards.
She obviously wanted them to help her with this.
Since he and Liang Yu had agreed to this before, it was not good to go back on his word now.
Anyways, it was just transferring more people to the manor.
It was indeed not easy for her to gather manpower in a short period of time.
“In terms of manpower, there are indeed too few. What is your plan?” Manager Liang asked.
The head of the family had asked him to try his best to satisfy the demands of Ms. Lin.
Although the three manors were not directly related to the manufacturing process, they were important in the production step.
Since Third Master Zhou had agreed, there was no reason for him to disagree.
Lin Xiaoyue’s eyes moved slightly before she said, “the manor is too big. The guards’ duty is not only to check the people entering and leaving the manor, but also to monitor the work.”
“I estimate we need at least twenty guards. Moreover, I need more people during the harvest season.”
Third Master Zhou frowned.
Each manor needed twenty guards. If he and the Liang Family split half, that would be ten guards each.
He alone would have to provide thirty guards for all three manors, which was twice the number of people he initially provided..
