She would only give a total of 100 spots to the other cities in Anyang County.
The total joining fee for 100 of them was 100,000 taels of silver.
With this sum of money, there was a high chance that she wouldn’t have to go to Young Master Liang or Third Master Zhou.
After all, those two wouldn’t help her for nothing.
As for the Liu Industrial Park, she didn’t want others to take away the benefits.
Thinking of all this, Lin Xiaoyue couldn’t help but sigh.
She had worked so hard for so long and she had managed to build it up so quickly. She felt a sense of accomplishment.
A big brand could not only bring her endless profits. More importantly, there was a lot of additional value. For example, the method she was using to raise funds.
Only the right to join the chain and not the shares. This was the most ideal way to raise funds.
In the future, when the industrial park was completed, she would build another workshop and give out the shares carefully.
If she does well, the Liu family will not have to suffer poverty for generations to come.
“Yes.” Li Jie replied.
The probability of opening 100 chain stores in a year was not small.
Oh right, maybe he had to release this news.
After all, the quant.i.ty was limited, so it was beneficial for the intended customers to make a decision as soon as possible.
Lin Xiaoyue asked Li Jie some more questions before letting him leave.
The next day.
Those in the manor began to change their diet.
The potatoes and vermicelli began to decrease drastically. They were replaced with rice, flour, miscellaneous grains, and some seasonal vegetables.
The potatoes and vermicelli suddenly changed from staple food to side dishes.
Everyone actually liked this change.
The Nangong Army accepted it very quickly.
At the same time, the sausage and bacon workshop started to get busy again.
In each manor, pigs of suitable weight began to be slaughtered one after another, and many were slaughtered every day.
Liang Shi and Zhou Shi got more sausages and bacon respectively, which made Manager Liang and Third Master Zhou extremely happy.
In addition, as the pigs were slaughtered, the vermicelli workshop started working again.
The soldiers of the Nangong Army who did not need to partic.i.p.ate in training entered the vermicelli workshop. The number of vermicelli on the manor slowly increased.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had pa.s.sed.
Liu Wuji, who had rejected the imperial edict to return to the capital several times, finally set foot on his way home.
Before they left, the Liu family members all sent them off. Each and every one of them had a reluctant look on their faces.
Liu Shi kept wiping her tears and couldn’t stop.
“Alright! You’re already the mother of two children, yet you’re still crying like this.” Liu Wuji comforted Liu Shi.
“I’m not returning to the capital, so 1 won’t be coming back!”
“When 1 return to the capital and settle the matter, 1 will take a leave of absence from the emperor and come back.” Although she said that, Lin Xiaoyue noticed that her grandfather’s eyes were also filled with tears.
“Wuwu, Grandpa…” Lin Xiaozhi rushed into Liu Wuji’s arms.
“Grandpa, don’t go!” He pulled Liu Wuji.
In the past month, his grandfather had spent the most time with him. He spoiled him like a baby and brought him to do many things.
He liked his grandfather and did not want to be separated from him.
Liu Wuji’s eyes turned even redder as he carried Lin Xiaozhi up.
“Aiyo! My good grandson!”
“Grandpa is going back to the capital to do something big.”
“Be good and wait for me. When 1 finish my business in the capital, 1 will come back to accompany you every day!”
“In the future, 1 will teach you. You will definitely become the most talented person in Qingshi Town, no, in the entire Great Yan.”
“I am counting on you to be the top scorer in the future!” Liu Wuji laughed.
When Lin Xiaozhi heard this, a little excitement surged in her heart.
Grandpa had told him this more than once.
From his mother and sister, he knew that his grandfather was indeed capable. Therefore, he hoped that her grandfather would stay at home forever and never leave.
However, it was only for a short while, and grandpa was about to leave.
Wuuuu…he didn’t want to be separated from his grandfather.
Liu Wuji reached out and wiped the tears from the little boy’s eyes.
“Ha, men don’t cry easily. Why are you crying like this? Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at?” Liu Wuji laughed again.
Indeed, as soon as he said that, Lin Xiaozhi began to sob and stop crying.
Liu Wuji was relieved.
Then, he looked at everyone.
Finally, his gaze fell on Lin Xiaoyue.
“With you at home, I can leave in peace.” He said.
“However, you have to be busy with the industrial park and take care of your family. Xiao’er isn’t here, so I’ll have to trouble you.”
Lin Xiaoyue hurriedly nodded.
“Don’t worry, grandpa. I will take good care of mother and Xiaozhi.” SHe promised.
Liu Wuji was relieved.
He looked at the crowd again.
“Alright, go back.” He said.
When everyone heard this, they still didn’t move.
Liu Wuji frowned. He then put Lin Xiaozhi down and handed him over to Lin Xiaoyue.
Then, he turned around and got into the carriage..
