Chapter 249 The News Spreads

People from all the mountains and villages sent tea all day long.

Everyone in the family was busy.

Su Qingmei couldn't count the silver after weighing it, so she had to call a few women from the new village to come over.

This solved the dilemma of Su Qingliu, Ruyi and others.

But there was no room for them at home.

All the side rooms were turned into bunk beds. It was packed.

After a few days, many people from other villages also sent tea. Many of them came over several mountains after hearing the news, and they were exhausted all the way.

Su Qingmei didn't refuse because they were outside the alliance.

It was all money, so how could she be against money.

These people from other villages thought that everyone was hiding in the mountains and everyone was the same, so why did the nearby villages suddenly join the 28-village alliance?

And they were making all kinds of moves.

They were trying to leave them far behind.

This wouldn't work.

So they pricked up their ears to listen to the movement over there.

Last year, they were collecting mountain products and tea seeds, but they got the news late and missed the trip.

After the winter, we knew they were building a market town, and everyone was watching with green eyes.

They have a market town.

Why don’t we have one?

Can we go too? Will they drive us out?

We are always watching the actions of this so-called alliance village.

Those who have relatives, friends, or children and in-laws in the twenty-eight villages would ask about it from time to time.

They found out that they are collecting tea!

We can’t leave them behind!

We are all from this big mountain, and we don’t care whether we are in the same territory.

Anyway, we are all from the same mountain. We can’t be left behind.

You eat meat, and we want to drink soup too.

So, the whole family immediately went up the mountain.

They picked the tea leaves and hurriedly transported them here.

Along the way, my heart was in my heart, afraid that they would not accept them.

Su Qingmei treated the tea sent from other villages equally. But perhaps they did not understand her request, and the tea leaves they picked were mixed with a lot of impurities.

Su Qingmei then explained to them while checking.

The people from the outside villages saw that the president of the alliance was young, and they were not repulsive to them. They treated them equally and patiently explained the key points of the collection to them. The key point was...

She counted the silver and was ready to pay!

The villagers from the outside villages received the money and looked in disbelief!

We made money. We made money!

They were excited and happy.

They thanked again and again, picked up the load and immediately turned around and ran home.

They wanted to go back and tell their families and the people in the village that the president was collecting our tea!

So more and more people ran to the mountain.

The mountain was crowded.

Some villages had children who married in the twenty-eight villages, and they got the news early.

And those who were related to them also got the news a little later.

The rest of those who had no relationship also got the news from these people, one by one, ten by ten.

A while ago, the news that Baijia Village was collecting tea spread all over the mountains.

Then, more and more villages knew about the alliance of the twenty-eight villages.

Naturally, they also knew about the news that they were building a market town.

More and more people rushed to the place where the market town was built to check whether it was true or not.

When they came, they saw two-story buildings rising from the ground, and the streets of the market town had begun to take shape.

They were very excited. There is a market town in the mountains!

Then they thought about it again, this is someone else's market town.

Can they also get some benefits?

Why are they not from the twenty-eight villages?

If we also move to live nearby, will they drive us away?

More people were tempted.

And the vast majority of people who got the news were also watching. There is a market town in the mountains, and they can buy daily necessities in the mountains without leaving the mountains.

People outside the mountains have complicated hearts. Some of them have never left the mountains for generations.

And Su Qingmei only knew that not only her family, but also the entire Baijia Village was shrouded in the fragrance of tea every day. I have smelled it for almost half a month, and it has not dissipated at all, and it is getting stronger and stronger.

I see that Su Qingliu has been trained by her and can handle it on his own.

Su Qingmei ran to the new village.

I have to breathe some fresh air. She threw Xiaobao to Su Qingliu and ran with Siyuan.

In the new village, Su Qingmei has already thought of a name, "Xingeng Village", which is not only a new village, but also means the beginning of a new life.

Dozens of people no longer live in the cave. The new village first built a place for everyone to live, with two large bunk beds for men and women, and then recently they worked in the village to build the village.

When Su Qingmei arrived, she saw that her mountain had changed its old appearance.

Originally, the mountain was full of green and bushes.

Now, according to the terrain of the mountain, more than a dozen small buildings and courtyards have been built, scattered and orderly, and the mountain road has been carved out of steps, winding up, and the outline of a village has emerged.

Su Qingmei watched from a distance, very satisfied.

This is her village, just looking at it gives her a sense of accomplishment.

Well, it still lacks a village gate, trenches, and defenses that must be built to be impregnable. She wants her people to live and sleep peacefully.

But this matter is not urgent, first develop the economy, then improve people's livelihood.

Anyway, these several villages surround it, it is quite safe.

Building a village and developing the economy are important.

"Boss."

"Boss..."

Everyone who saw her greeted her. Su Qingmei nodded in response.

I can’t remember so many people, but they are all hers anyway. She has to protect her people.

When she scanned their faces again, they were completely different from when she first met them. They were neatly dressed, well fed and well slept, and their mental outlook was different.

They were also energetic when working.

It was a different feeling to build your own home with your own hands.

“Boss.” Xiang Shang came with the account book, followed by Wei Fuchang.

Su Qingmei greeted the two of them and looked at Wei Fuchang.

Xiang Shang said, “Brother Wei, not only can he calculate and read the account book, but he can also explain the drawings of the house building in a clear and logical way. After his planning, the village is more reasonable, and I have less worries.”

Oh, this Wei Fuchang is still a treasure?

Wei Fuchang said modestly, “Not worth mentioning. There are still many places I need to ask Brother Xiang for advice.”

The two were modest to each other.

Su Qing'an said to Wei Fuchang: "You are different from the people in this village. You are the benefactor of my sister and niece. Just be comfortable. You can stay in this village as long as you want. I welcome you."

"Thank you, Madam Su, for taking me in. I think this mountain is very good, and this Xingeng Village is a place to raise people. I will stay here and not leave."

"Welcome." Su Qing'an and Xiang Shang said to him.

Su Qing'an looked around and said to them: "Everyone looks different."

Xiang Shang had a smile on his face. He used to worry about the safety and food and clothing of his family, but now he is not worried anymore and is full of energy every day.

He glanced at the construction site: "Everyone can eat well during the day and sleep well at night. After more than a month of nursing, they will naturally recover. Moreover, this is a house built by ourselves, and no one spares the effort."

Su Qing'an nodded.

As he walked and looked around, he saw that Xiang Shang arranged the work in an orderly manner and was satisfied with his work ability.

Xiang Shang pointed to a place and said to her: "That is the center of the village. It is the land where the Dong family will live in the future. I have circled out the area according to the drawings drawn by the Dong family and combined with the yard where the Dong family lives now, but it has not started construction yet."

"Now the bricks, tiles and stone strips have to wait until everyone's residence is built, and I will take people out of the mountain to buy them. But in ten days, we can start construction."

Su Qingmei nodded: "Very good."

With her own village, she will probably live in Xingeng Village in the future.

Before the construction started, Su Qingmei did not go to see it, but only looked at it from a distance. The reserved area is quite large, probably much larger than where she lives now in Baijia Village.

She picked up the drawings and looked at them, and discussed the details with Xiang Shang.
