Lucky Farmer Girl: I rely on metaphysics to support my family

Chapter 740 Thank you for your trouble
The next morning.

After Tang Wan finished taking care of her family affairs, she had Chen Da drive her to the prefectural capital.

Tang Wan got off the car at the Zhao residence, and Chen Da went to find someone to expand the cellar.

When the gatekeeper of the Zhao residence saw Tang Wan, one of them went to inform the master of the mansion, while the other came out to greet her, saying, "Master, you've arrived?"

Tang Wan nodded slightly and asked, "Is Master Zhao here?"

"Yes, please come with me!" the disciple replied respectfully.

Without hesitation, Tang Wan followed him into the mansion.

After all, in the past, when they came to the Zhao residence, they would just walk straight in, which clearly indicated that the family had given prior instructions.

Before they had taken two steps, they saw Young Master Zhao hurrying towards them.

Before the man even arrived, Zhao Si Gongzi's voice could be heard: "Master, why have you arrived so early? I am so sorry for not greeting you properly!"

Tang Wan smiled and replied, "Fourth Young Master, there's no need for such politeness. I came uninvited!"

Young Master Zhao stopped within two zhang of Tang Wan, cupped his hands and said, "It is an honor to have you here, Master. I hope you can come every day!"

He was not lying; everything he had now was thanks to the man before him.

If it weren't for this person in front of me, I would not have been in danger several times, nor would I have discovered that doing business is so interesting.

If the master hadn't asked him to transport grain, my father wouldn't have given me the opportunity to train.

After all, in the eyes of the world, he was so ignorant and incompetent.

It was only through this opportunity that I was able to discover my potential and that my father was able to see my abilities.

"Alright, let's go. I need to see your father." Tang Wan smiled and changed the subject, not wanting to continue praising him.

"Yes, yes, please, Master!" Young Master Zhao hurriedly stepped aside to lead the way, bowing slightly, his expression becoming increasingly respectful.

Tang Wan walked forward, and Zhao Si Gongzi followed her, keeping a half-body distance, so that they could talk easily and remain respectful and polite.

Zhao Si Gongzi, who was always thick-skinned and familiar with Tang Wan, asked, "Master, what brings you to see my old man today? Could you give me a heads-up?"

Tang Wan glanced at Zhao Si Gongzi, raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "Want to know? It's nothing, it's just about the canned goods business we talked about earlier. The peach harvesting season is coming soon, and I want to put a small quantity on the market first to test the waters."

Young Master Zhao suddenly realized and immediately said, "Oh, I see! My father will definitely listen to you on this matter. The shelves are all ready! Everything is prepared, and we're just waiting for your canned goods!"

As they spoke, the two arrived at the reception hall.

Before even entering the hall, they heard Zhao Si Gongzi's voice: "Father, the master has arrived!"

Master Zhao stood up and greeted him with a broad smile: "Master! A rare guest indeed! Please have a seat! Serve tea!"

"You're too kind, Mr. Zhao," Tang Wan replied with a smile, and then took her seat in the guest area.

After the servants served tea and left, Master Zhao asked impatiently, "Master, what brings you here today?"

Tang Wan didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "The canned goods we had stored were temporarily taken away due to the needs of the War King's army, which was unavoidable. Now, the canned peaches at the workshop are piling up like mountains. After thinking it over, we can't wait until late autumn and winter, so we need to start selling them as soon as possible. I wonder if things have progressed as agreed with Master Zhao before..."

"Agreed! Of course I agree!" Before Tang Wan could finish speaking, Master Zhao clapped his hands and laughed in response.

Master Zhao's joy was visibly evident as he said in a loud voice, "Don't worry, Master! The shelves have been reserved for you! It's spacious and in a prominent location, just waiting for your good stuff to be put on the shelves! I've already instructed the shop assistants to make sure they sell it beautifully for you!"

He had prepared the shelves last time, but all the canned goods were taken away, which he regretted for a long time. He had tasted those canned goods before; they tasted good and could be stored for several months. They were definitely a rare item, and putting them in the shop should attract a lot of customers.

Mr. Zhao's enthusiasm reassured Tang Wan, and she replied with a smile, "That's wonderful, thank you for your trouble, Mr. Zhao. I will arrange for someone to deliver the first batch of goods tomorrow. As for the specific quantity and price, we will proceed according to the previously agreed terms."

"Good! Good! I'll follow the master's arrangements!" Master Zhao nodded repeatedly, as if he could already see the canned goods selling like hotcakes.

Tang Wan was very happy that the matter was settled.

She suddenly remembered something and said to Master Zhao, "Oh, right, there's something else I wanted to tell you, so you can rest assured. In about ten days, it will be time to repay the grain this month. We previously promised to repay 500,000 catties every month. This month's 500,000 catties will definitely be delivered on time, so please don't worry!"

Upon hearing this, Master Zhao felt reassured. He picked up his teacup and drank tea instead of wine, saying, "Master, you are reliable and admirable. With that, I am even more at ease."

The two then discussed the specific details of the canned goods being put on the shelves, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Young Master Zhao listened with great interest, occasionally interjecting with suggestions.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Tang Wan stood up to take her leave: "Master Zhao, Fourth Young Master, I'm sorry to have troubled you today. I have other matters to attend to at home, so I'll take my leave now."

Master Zhao and his fourth son quickly got up to see Tang Wan off, escorting her all the way to the gate of the mansion.

On the other side, Chen Da also spent the entire day with his feet barely touching the ground.

After leaving the Zhao residence, he headed straight for the south of the city.

We're looking for that bricklayer surnamed Wang from the last time we worked on the cellar project. He's skilled and honest.

Chen Da found his place familiarly.

As soon as Master Wang saw the man, he knew a job had come and hurried to greet him.

After Chen Da finished saying that the sooner the better, Master Wang hesitated a bit: "I still have two small jobs to finish, and we don't have enough manpower."

Chen Da understood his concerns and directly held up two fingers: "Master Wang, we'll increase the wages by 20%! As long as you can immediately mobilize manpower and give us priority! Just ask for materials and tools, and we'll cooperate fully."

Upon hearing about the "20% increase" in wages, Mr. Wang's concerns vanished instantly.

He slapped his thigh hard: "Alright! Manager Chen is so generous! I'll take this job! Don't worry, I'll go and arrange for the apprentices to finish the other two jobs right away. I'll personally take the best master craftsmen to the mansion! We'll measure the site and prepare the materials this afternoon, and start work first thing tomorrow morning!"

Chen Da was overjoyed and quickly said, "Great! That's exactly what I wanted to hear! Then I'll have to trouble you, Master Wang! Please prepare your tools and materials and come directly to the Tang residence to find me. I have some things to take care of, so I'll take my leave now!"

After finalizing the details with Master Wang, Chen Da immediately went to the dental clinic he had visited before.

As Tang Wan instructed, he carefully selected women and strong men who looked nimble, had bright eyes, and were physically robust. He bought six of them in one go and signed a life-or-death contract with them.

He instructed the slave trader to deliver the person to the Tang residence that afternoon.

After Chen Da finished these two important matters, he dared not delay and hurriedly drove back to the vicinity of the Zhao residence.

Just as they reached the street corner, they saw Tang Wan coming out of the Zhao family mansion gate, with Master Zhao and the fourth young master of the Zhao family seeing her off at the gate.

Chen Da quickly drove the carriage over and whispered, "Second Miss, everything has been taken care of."

Tang Wan was very satisfied with what Chen Da said.

Then he bid farewell to Master Zhao and the Fourth Young Master Zhao, and asked Chen Da to drive him home.
