The Rough Hunter’s Little Lucky Wife

360 Stuck

“I want to take you to Shangjing.”

Zhao Zhan decided to make use of this day to reveal his plans.

“Although our family’s wealth can be ranked among the top in Huai County, if we go to Shangjing, this amount of money would be considered very little.

“There, I can’t let you just enter a shop and buy it without even asking for the price.

“Besides this, you also like the environment here in Willow Village, so if we go to Shangjing, I also want to buy a house in the suburbs of the capital. This way, we can take turns living in the two places, and it’ll be up to you where you want to live.”

He looked at her carefully.

Although Yue Jiaojiao didn’t like to go out, it didn’t mean that she didn’t need to go out at all.

However, although she would occasionally feel bored during her year in Willow Village, she was very happy most of the time. This was because Zhao Zhan had brought a lot of new things in Willow Village to her.

“Jiaojiao,” Zhao Zhan held Yue Jiaojiao’s hands and massaged them a few times. He raised his head and looked at her with a gentle gaze. “In half a year’s time, we should be able to set off for Shangjing.”

“That soon?”

“It’ll take a lot of preparations. I just sent a letter to Bei City last month. I asked them to send people to Shangjing already. Before opening the workshop, I have already used Wagler’s trade route to open up the things in our workshop in Shangjing.

“The buyers are stable. If we manage the workshop over there, we can stabilize the supply and also pave the way for the opening of the restaurant.”

“It’s possible to bump into a few second-generation heirs just by going out in Shangjin,” Yue Jiaojiao analyzed the pros and cons to Zhao Zhan. “We have no power or influence there. If we rashly open a restaurant and steal business from others, you might be targeted by people with ill intentions.”

“I’ll have to depend on County Magistrate Zheng’s influence. Long before the harvest season ended, I had already estimated the harvest and reported it to County Magistrate Zheng.

“The higher-ups have been keeping an eye on the growing of soybeans and chilies in Huai County. After County Magistrate Zheng reported the harvest, I heard that the officials were very happy with the result.

“A few days ago, I converted the harvest into profit. After calculating it, I also told County Magistrate Zheng.

“He told me that the official appointment will come in a few days. At that time, he will go to Shangjing to take charge of agricultural promotion. This is a hard job, but it is also a lucrative job.

“County Magistrate Zheng is not alone in Shangjing. It’s my first time opening a restaurant in Shangjing, so I’ll keep a low profile. I won’t compete with others for the limelight.

“In addition, I’ll be giving County Magistrate Zheng ten percent of the profits from the business. So if anything happens, we’ll be in the same boat.”

Zhao Zhan had completely shed his image of a taciturn hunter.
