Chapter 930: Buying Land and Building Roads
Editor: Henyee Translations

The weather was cold and there was nothing to do in the fields. Chen Liang did not want to go out either.

Now that Niu Dan was going to the county city to study on the Gu family’s carriage, there was no need for him to wake up early in the morning to take him to school. This made him feel much more relaxed.

When Gu Yundong came in, he was warming himself in front of the brazier and talking to Madam Zhou, who was doing needlework.

Hearing the sound, Madam Zhou hurriedly stood up and came out to welcome her. “Yundong, why are you here at this time? Come in quickly. It’s cold outside. Come and warm yourself by the fire.”

Gu Yundong smiled and sat opposite Chen Liang. Madam Zhou poured her a cup of hot tea and she placed it in her palm.

“I’m here to see Uncle Chen. I have something to discuss with him.”

“What is it? Tell me.”

“I want to buy some land at the foot of our mountain.”

Uncle Chen was stunned. “Your house isn’t big enough?”

Gu Yundong smiled. “Of course not. Uncle Chen, you also know that I’ve found my aunt. Their household registration has already been moved to Yongfu Village. It’s just that they came late, unlike back then when we could directly be given land. So if we want to build a house, we have to buy some land, right?”

Chen Liang nodded. “That’s true.”

“There’s also my uncle. Although I haven’t found him, I want to buy some land first. It’ll be convenient for us to be neighbors in the future. Oh right, Shen Sitian wants to buy a piece too. The land she wants is next door to the Zeng family’s house. It’s not very big.”

Shen Sitian made a few large embroidery pieces and Gu Yundong brought them to the prefectural city to sell. Their price was quite beautiful.

Hence, she had some savings now. She had the money to build a house. Gu Yundong was worried about her living alone, but that did not stop her from buying the land first.

Chen Liang was speechless. Why did she buy so much in one go?

When did the foot of the mountain become so popular?

He swallowed and nodded silently. “Sure.”

Gu Yundong looked at him with a smile. Chen Liang acted quickly. In the afternoon, he went to the government office to settle the matter and gave Gu Yundong the title deeds.

After everything was done, Chen Liang thought that everything would be fine.

Unexpectedly, Gu Yundong came to visit again the next morning.

“Uncle Chen, I have one more thing.”

“What is it?”

Gu Yundong said, “I want to build a road in the village.”

Chen Liang was stunned and suddenly looked up at her. “What did you say just now?”

Even Madam Zhou, who had just walked in, widened her eyes.

‘Build a road in the village?’

This, this, this, this was a great thing.

The Yongfu Village had always been poor. Otherwise, the refugees would not have been arranged to come here. Later on, it was thanks to the Gu family that many families could live a good life. Seeing that their lives were getting more and more popular, he did not expect Yundong to actually want to build a road.

Gu Yundong smiled. “But the road I want to build is not the road in the center of the village.”

Chen Liang was stunned and calmed down a little. “Tell me slowly. How do you want to build it? Where do you want to build it?”

“I’m not afraid to tell Uncle Chen the truth. Other than wanting to make the journey in Yongfu Village easier, I’m doing this for my workshop. As you know, our workshop is getting bigger and bigger now, and we’re transporting more and more fruits. The village road is really narrow, and it’s not convenient for carriages to pass through. Therefore, I want to build another road from the workshop to the village entrance for carriages.”

The last time Nie Shuang came over, she said that Yongfu Village was quite good, but the road was too difficult to walk.

Gu Yundong had thought about it a long time ago, but she had forgotten about it when there were many things to do.

Now, it was not good to delay any longer. Wasn’t there a saying that said ‘if you want a place to be rich, you have to build a road first’?

When the road was built, it would greatly increase efficiency.
