Xiaoguo had always been wary of others.

The other party was a businessman. She could not be swayed by his beauty. If he took her cows away, she would have nowhere to cry.

After Mrs. Yang left, Xiaoguo got started on her grass-cutting work. She led the donkey towards the forest.

The schedule for the day was full. She would cut grass in the morning and go to Qin Manor in the afternoon.

!!

After going to Qin Manor’s fields with Qin Anming that day, Xiaoguo had become obsessed with that place—mainly because of the vegetable crops and melon vines that could be found there.

After the fruits were picked, the remaining vegetation would become a paradise for all herbivores.

It was only then that she found out that most of the villagers in Qin Manor were farmers. The fields were planted with crops all year round. If anyone needed any green seedlings, they could just pay a visit to Qin Manor.

Qin Anming had spoken with a few familiar villagers beforehand. They were all delighted to have Xiaoguo go and pick the vines. Some villagers who saw her even invited her to go to their plots.

After all, the vines were useless to them. Leftover vines in the fields were a hindrance. Since someone was willing to help remove them, why not?

Therefore, Xiaoguo became extremely popular in the fields of Qin Manor. Almost every family was fighting over her. As soon as they saw her donkey cart appear, countless pairs of hands tried to drag her into their fields.

It couldn’t be helped. She was fast and could clear a whole plot within a short time. How could she not be well-liked?

Xiaoguo also enjoyed it very much. She was very satisfied that she had access to a variety of vegetable seedlings from different plots.

This was also why every time she came to this place, the donkey cart was always filled to the limit, to the point where there was no space for her to sit. In order to reduce the burden on the donkey, she had to get out and walk.

In any case, it wasn’t too tiring. She treated it as a form of exercise to help her reduce the weight she had gained in the previous year.

It was killing two birds with one stone.

The green seedlings were already piled up in the corner of her house. Looking at them gave her a sense of security.

Moreover, cows had to eat a variety of grass so that the milk they produced would be plentiful and nutritious.

For the sake of the pregnant cows, Xiaoguo had even written down a food list, such as the types of grass and the dry goods that they ate on a daily basis.

In order to get high-quality milk, she was really doing everything she could.

Every day, she was either on the road looking for grass or transporting grass.

The next day, Xiaoguo still remembered what Mrs. Yang had said about Su Changsheng coming to visit today.

In any case, she had a good supply of grass stashed aside. It didn’t matter if she didn’t collect any for one day.

As she didn’t know the exact time they were coming, she didn’t go out for the entire day. She stayed at home and waited for Su Changsheng to come.

Su Changsheng did not let her wait for long. He came early in the morning.

When Xiaoguo heard a knock on the door, she went out to open it. As expected, a white figure was standing right outside the door. The moment the door opened, he put away his fan.

“Long time no see, Madam.”

“Yes, it’s been a long time.”

Xiaoguo stepped aside and invited him in.

Su Changsheng nodded to express his gratitude before heading straight for the cows.

Jia Bao who was following behind him nodded at Xiaoguo, and gestured for another person to enter.

This time, it wasn’t just the two of them. There was also a bearded old man who came with them.

Xiaoguo looked at the unfamiliar man and muttered to herself, while she followed them to the cows.

“Madam, let me introduce you. This is someone I specially invited to help you check on the health of the cows.”

Su Changsheng retracted his gaze in satisfaction from the cows and introduced the man to Xiaoguo.

“A vet?”

“What was Su Changsheng doing?”

Xiaoguo put away her thoughts and nodded at the vet as a greeting.

“Sorry to trouble you.”

Xiaoguo was also curious to find out if the two cows were healthy. It would be good to have someone take a look.

The vet nodded and rolled up his sleeves before walking towards the cows.

After a series of touching and observation, he nodded in satisfaction and said, “These two cows are very healthy. Their feces are not foul-smelling. They look strong, their eyes are alert, and their cries are loud. Moreover, the female is pregnant. We can expect to see the baby calf in May or June next year.”

Xiaoguo wasn’t the only one who appeared satisfied. Even Su Changsheng heaved a sigh of relief and stole a glance at her.

At first, he was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to raise the cows well. He didn’t expect that his worries were for nothing. It seems that his small building will be opened for business next year. Just thinking about it made him happy.

Before the owner of the cow could feel happy, Su Changsheng was already making plans in his mind. Looking at his smiling face, those who didn’t know better would think that the cows were his.

At this moment, Su Changsheng was already thinking about himself in the next year. He was secretly delighted.

“Silver… Silver… Shiny and shimmery silver… my silver.”

Jia Bao looked at his young master, who was suddenly laughing out loud. He nudged at his master helplessly. He had promised to take care of his image.

Su Changsheng cleared his throat and said, “Jia Bao, go and bring down the gifts.”

“Yes.”

Jiabao knew that his master was intentionally sending him away, so he sensibly left with the man beside him.

The man who came out with him was an honest man. He didn’t understand what was going on, so he rolled up his sleeves and was about to move the box.

“Maybe later.”

Jia Bao stopped him and led him to sit in the carriage. He said lazily with a stalk of grass in his mouth, “You should sit down too. We’ll move it later.”

...

Although the man didn’t understand why, he obediently rolled down his sleeves and sat alone by the side.

Xiaoguo knew that Su Changsheng had something to say, so she invited him into the house. After all, it was not appropriate to talk while standing outside.

“Have some tea.”

Xiaoguo placed her special fruit tea in front of him.

“Okay, thank you.”

Su Changsheng was not in a hurry to get to the point. Instead, he picked up the teacup with interest and sniffed it.

“The fragrance of green tea and the sweetness of fruits. Nice!”

Su Changsheng did not hold back his compliments. First, it was a round of praises, and then he managed to find out how the tea was made. It was a smooth sequence. Unknowingly, Xiaoguo had let him lead her by the nose without even realizing it.

“…”

Seeing Xiaoguo’s speechless expression, Su Changsheng eventually perked up, but he did not feel embarrassed at all.

“I’m sorry. I’m used to it.”

...

Over the years, his habit of wanting to know the recipe whenever he encountered something new had become ingrained in his bones, and it was difficult to change.

Xiaoguo faked a few laughs. If it weren’t for her strong willpower, she would have blurted out the recipe.

“Let’s get back to the main topic.” Su Changsheng was a very serious and organized person when it came to doing business. As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper and placed it on the table. He said, “This is my milk plan. I’ll let you take a look first. If it’s not suitable, we’ll adjust it.”

Xiaoguo was in no hurry to pick it up. Instead, she said, “I have a request too. I’ll speak first. You can decide if you want to collaborate after listening.”

Su Changsheng thought for a moment and nodded.

“I’m opening my own dairy shop in Yonghai County. I’ll only open one store.”

After hearing this, Su Changsheng nodded readily. This was in line with his thoughts. He had never planned to run his business in Yonghai County. He was aiming for the capital and was looking at only one store.

“I thought you were going to open shops all over the Shao Nation.”

Xiaoguo was amused to hear his thoughts.

“That was my initial plan, but after thinking about it, I decided to only open one store in the capital. The rarer something is, the more valuable it is.”

Xiaoguo agreed with Su Changsheng’s words. The capital was prosperous and every family had some money in their hands. Even if he only opened one store, he could still make lots of money.

Satisfied, Xiaoguo opened the paper on the table and looked at the plans inside. The preliminary plan set in the ancient times had been completed.

The money that Su Changsheng offered Xiaoguo was really an astronomical amount. At least, it was a price that exceeded her expectations. It was ridiculously high. Most importantly, he was going to pay her once a year—it was not a one-off payment for everything.
