Chapter 198: Discussing business with Jiang family

Bai Yi Yang immediately enter her workshop after returning from the jungle with her siblings. They went to pick mushrooms just now, near the orchard area. They went to look around the orchard after finished picking mushrooms and met with Second Li who is cleaning the orchard area with grass cutting machine. It was the one they bought last time.

Bai Yi Yang continue making stuff for the greenhouse. As for the things that she have finished, she already installed it there but she haven't start planting anything yet, she wanted to finish this job first before start planting. As for the seeds, she already bought it in advance.

'Yang Yang, when your greenhouse is finished, I want a bed over there too.' TongTong said. TongTong also start calling Bai Yi Yang names now, sometimes 'Yi Yang', sometimes 'Yang Yang' and it also use 'host', depending on its mood.

"Okay, I will add a pet door for you. Don't bring your friend inside though." Bai Yi Yang said.

'Okay I won't. I won't even bring the puppies.' TongTong said and jump excitedly.

Bai Yi Yang work in her workshop while chatting with TongTong until they were interrupted by the guest. It is Jiang Yu Zan and his family, they came with their old car and everyone is there including Jiang Yu Zan's old mother-in-law.

"Is anyone at home?" A voice call.

Bai Yi Yang came out, actually she already heard the loud old car sound but she was tidying up the stuff. Bai Yi Yang call TongTong to go out together.

"Eldest uncle." Bai Yi Yang came out and open the other side of the gate.

"Ah, it's Yi Yang. Where is the rest?" Jiang Yu Zan ask with a smile.

"Inside. My gege should be at the vegetables field, I will call him. Please come inside first." Bai Yi Yang said. She called out 'eldest aunt' and 'elder' then pat the boy's head while welcoming them inside.

Not long after, her three siblings also come out. Even though Bai Yi Mo and Bai Yi Ling don't really like the the husband and wife pair, they don't discriminate against the small boy Jiang Rui and the old lady.

When they enter the house, both Cheng Qiao and her old mother have the same reaction as Jiang Yu Zan initially. They have heard about the children house, actually not only the house, they also heard about the orchard, the source of the children's money. They were shocked at first, the mountain and old courtyard house that they wanted to avoid before is transformed this much. Their fertile land is very good, but when they heard how profitable the orchard is and how beautiful the courtyard house is, they feel like they are fool for choosing the paddy field in the village before. Well, it was a story from long time ago.

"Ah Rui, come and play game with us." Bai Yi Mo pull the boy who seems to be a bit shy. The adult smile at this, they have seen Bai Yi Mo and Bai Yi Fang at Old Zhou house a few times since they settled down last Sunday, but when the children saw them husband and wife, they will only greet politely. However they are thankful that the two children seems to like their son a lot, even the old lady have better treatment than them husband and wife.

"Jie, I will go get some drinks." Bai Yi Ling said after greeting the guest.

"Okay. Call gege to return home." Bai Yi Yang said to Bai Yi Ling and Bai Yi Ling nod. She can just shout from the kitchen window.

"Eldest uncle, have your family settle down now?" Bai Yi Yang ask.

"Yes, thanks to everyone's help." Jiang Yu Zan said. Bai Yi Yang smile and nod.

"Ah, you may have heard this but this is your eldest aunt's mother, my mother-in-law. You can call her Grandma Shen." Jiang Yu Zan finally introduce the old lady. As what TongTong said, she really look thin and a bit sickly.

"Hello Grandma Shen, I am Bai Yi Yang." Bai Yi Yang smile.

'She looks better today. The village must have suit her well.' TongTong said.

"I know, I heard a lot about you from your Grandma Zhou." Grandma Shen said.

Bai Yi Yang chat about light topics with Jiang Yu Zan family. She didn't dare to say anything else or day something serious, wait until Bai Yi Chen is here bah. She also ask about Grandma Shen health and about Jiang Rui, but only light topic.

When Bai Yi Ling came to serve the tea, Bai Yi Chen also come in from outside. He greet everyone and excuse himself for a while to change clothes. He return not long after that. Bai Yi Ling don't want to mingle with the noisy children so she sat next to Bai Yi Yang and play with TongTong on her lap.

"Eldest uncle, what is your plan now? It's still not late to plant paddy now but your field is not ready yet." Bai Yi Chen said.

The village usually plant paddy 2 times a year, once during the early part of the year and harvest is between March to April. As for the second half, the harvest is usually between August to September. The villagers has started planting since late April or early May.

"That's what I am worried about. I am the only one who can work so I won't be able to catch up, but to hire people..that will cost a lot." Jiang Yu Zan said. They barely able to settle down with the money left, they really are short of money.

"If you want to catch up, then hiring people is the only way." Bai Yi Chen said. It has passed the planting season for most people, so they are not that busy, many will have time to do side job.

"Or, I am thinking of planting other things for example vegetables." Jiang Yu Zan said. At the same time, he look at the twins reaction, if he plant vegetables, that's mean they will be competitors since the siblings is planting vegetables too. Their vegetables field is quite big, there is no way they are eating it themselves.

"That is also a good idea." Bai Yi Chen nod.

"But, you siblings are also planting vegetables. We husband and wife has talked about it, the two of you are still studying, we also got the idea of planting vegetables from seeing you, in the future we can also help you." Cheng Qiao said.

"That won't be a problem, our vegetables are already supplied somewhere. Eldest uncle, eldest aunt, feel free to do as your plan." Bai Yi Chen said.

"Oh my..you also sell your vegetables? To Natural Grocery too?" Cheng Qiao ask.

"Yes. So there is nothing to worry." Bai Yi Chen said.

"Then, I will feel at ease." Jiang Yu Zan said.

"Eldest uncle, may I know what is your further plan?" Bai Yi Yang think that growing vegetables won't go far if they just sell it to villagers or nearby village.

"I wanted to open a stall then slowly save money and open a store in town." Jiang Yu Zan said. He wanted to start a business again, a small business. Just enough for his family to eat good meals, healthcare and for their son to have education. He is too afraid to have too much big dream, didn't their business fail because he have too big ambition, in the end they lose everything. He at most just suit to do small business.

"That's also good. Eldest uncle have a vision, how about this. We will also invest in this, we are family, you still need money to start something even from below." Bai Yi Yang smile.

"That.." Jiang Yu Zan look at Bai Yi Yang.

"Eldest uncle try asking around first, no matter what a land that big can be done alone. You can always hire people when it comes to the difficult job." Bai Yi Yang said. Jiang Yu Zan may have work at a construction site for a year, but she don't have experience in agriculture, he need to learn from the villagers.

"We have hired the villagers before, try asking between 200-300 yuan per day." Bai Yi Chen said.

"If we hire 10 people, then the salary will be between 2,000-3,000 yuan per day, that will be too much. Your eldest uncle don't have that much money." Jiang Yu Zan said. To be honest, their money is only left with 10,000 yuan or so. They still need to survive for the next few months with this much money ah.

"That's why we said we will contribute too, when eldest uncle store start gaining money, we will get some profit too." Bai Yi Yang smile.

"Then..wait until I made some paperwork to show you. I can't take advantage of you my nieces and nephews." Jiang Yu Zan said.

"That will do." Bai Yi Yang nod.

After that, they talk a bit more about the details. Bai Yi Yang suggest a lot of ideas, this is something that she borrowed from Zhang Yong, Zhang Yong often talk about stuff like this to her. Since her original world is also a bit more advance, she also have a little idea about business.

Jiang Yu Zan is enlightened by his eldest niece, she has such a brilliant mind. When he saw her when she was a child, she is very mediocre, just look at her now. Even the business with Natural Grocery happened because of her.

He have heard a bit about Bai Yi Yang relationship with Natural Grocery from Second Zhou who work for them, he can only applaud Bai Yi Yang for having the ability to make this kind of connection. The exact amount, Second Zhou didn't tell her, but judging from the price of Bai Mountain's fruits sold in Natural Grocery, the purchase price can't be low. His younger sister's children is more established than anyone in the village now. They can even hire someone for 4,200 yuan as a base salary, he was shocked when he heard Second Zhou's salary at first, that was much higher than his salary at City Shan. He heard that many people envy Second Zhou for landing that job, unfortunately the Bai siblings doesn't need more worker.

"Eldest uncle, you brought your car today, how about staying for dinner." Bai Yi Chen suggest.

"That won't be appropriate." Jiang Yu Zan remember the steamed buns and swallow his saliva, that was so delicious that he still remember it now.

"No problem. It's still early, eldest uncle you can walk around first if you want. You can ask gege about the vegetables field too, he is the one who handle it." Bai Yi Yang said. It is only 5.00 pm now, should they have barbecue today?

"That is also good." Jiang Yu Zan immediately agree.

"Grandma Shen, I will bring you to my room to rest. You can take a nap while waiting for dinner." Bai Yi Yang said.

"Good, good. I don't have the energy like you young people." Grandma Shen agree. Bai Yi Yang bring her to her bedroom and let her lie down to the bed, she adjust the right temperature before leaving her to rest.

"Thank you, yatou. My daughter and son-in-law have wronged your mother before, but they also have got their punishment, thank you for accepting us like a family." Grandma Shen hold Bai Yi Yang hand.

"Grandma Shen, the old stories os just the pass now. My mother also has long forgive them. We only have each other now." Bai Yi Yang smile kindly. This old lady, she still worried about her grown up child.

"Good. Good child." Grandma Shen said. What a sensible child, she praise inside.

"Grandma Shen, have a rest. We will call you later. Do you have anything you wanted to eat?" Bai Bai Yi Yang ask.

"Anything is fine." Grandma Shen said. Bai Yi Yang nod and come out after turning off the lamp.

When she come out, Jiang Yu Zan is gone with Bai Yi Chen, only Cheng Qiao still in the living room, watching the children play video games.

Bai Yi Ling is showing off her talent to the children. Bai Yi Ling only play a few times but she is better than Bai Yi Mo who play the most. Bai Yi Ling still don't like the Jiang couple, but she is also kind to the innocent Jiang Rui, she also know who she should dislike and who she should treat well.

"Eldest Aunt." Bai Yi Yang call out.

"Oh. Come, I will help you prepare dinner." Cheng Qiao stop looking and follow Bai Yi Yang out. They head to the kitchen together.
