Reborn peasant girl: I became rich overnight by traveling to sea

Chapter 109: Discuss with other nearby villages

In the open space in the center of Guojia Village, people in the village gathered together and noisily expressed their dissatisfaction.

Different from the silence in the morning, at this time, everyone seemed to have completely opposite opinions on the two methods proposed by the "Liu Family".

Guo Songqing had a loud voice. He shouted that he wanted the Liu family to pay for his stall at the port before agreeing to the Liu family's plan: the Liu family would go to the beach to enclose the land, and the people in the village would patrol the area.

After Chang Pingning heard what Guo Songqing said, he couldn't help but want to tell Liu Qingwan next to him that the three of them should try another approach.

Meng Xia, who was standing in the center, snorted coldly after hearing Guo Songqing's words and looked at the others around Guo Songqing: "Which of you has any opinions? Keep talking!"

Meng Xia's voice was calm, and there was no hint of emotion or anger.

Therefore, the people in Guojiacun took it as some kind of encouragement. Then more people clamored that the money given to them was less and they wanted more.

In addition, the processing fee for processing seafood is too small to allow eleven families to charge an extra twenty cents. Meng Xia could simply teach the entire village how to make seafood and charge a high processing fee for the entire village.

Some women complained that they were illiterate and could not record the daily dishes and processing quantities, so they might be fined for nothing.

When Meng Xia began to hear the suggestions of those around Guo Songqing who wanted to take advantage of the situation, he looked disdainful and curled his lips, unwilling to answer.

However, when an aunt mentioned that she didn't know how to read and was worried about recording errors, Meng Xia responded loudly.

"Auntie who says you can't read, I can teach you how to read! It's not just you, anyone else who agrees with my method but is worried about reading can come to me and I'll teach you how to read!" Meng Xia's voice was loud.

After she finished speaking, the noisy surroundings fell silent for a brief moment.

Then the uncle standing next to the aunt smiled and said: "Teach her how to read? Her current memory can't even remember how many conchs she picked up at home today, let alone how to read!"

The happy expression on the lady's face suddenly disappeared. She glanced at her husband standing beside her, lowered her head without saying anything.

"Brother Da Qiang, don't talk nonsense." Aunt Qiuhong stood up again, "Your sister Guangying doesn't go to sea. She cooks and does needlework at home every day. It's normal that she can't remember. I agree with my daughter. I’ve been reading it for a few days, and although it was difficult to remember it at first, it’s easier now.”

"Hmph, your family is doing things behind the Liu family, so of course you have to say something good for the Liu family." A disdainful female voice came from the crowd.

Soon, the people in the village started to make noise again.

Meng Xia wanted to see who was speaking, but there were too many people standing in front of her, blocking her view.

However, she noticed that the village chief standing next to her had a vague smile on his face from beginning to end.

Chang Pingning was a little upset as she listened to the noise in the village. She didn't understand why a business that was obviously a good thing and could make almost every family in the village earn money was so fiercely opposed by everyone.

Liu Qingwan looked at the noisy villagers in front of her coldly, with some impatience on her face.She turned to look at Meng Xia, as if she had something to say to Meng Xia.

However, Meng Xia was talking to the village chief, and it seemed that the conversation between the two was not going well.

Not long after, Chang Pingning heard the village chief shout: "Everyone, be quiet."

Finally quiet down.

Seeing this, the village chief continued to speak loudly: "We are just discussing Ms. Meng's method now. If it can be implemented in our village, can it be feasible? What is everyone's attitude? Why would anyone want Ms. Meng to pass on her family cooking skills? What about our village?
"Even if Miss Meng takes the initiative to hand it over to our village, we still have to discuss it carefully..."

"Yes! When will Miss Meng teach everyone her cooking skills?" A female voice in the crowd asked.

Everyone followed the voice and looked at that person.Chang Pingning followed everyone's gaze and saw the village chief's wife, Aunt Shuzhen.

Then I remembered that when Meng Xia proposed to teach the aunt to read, it was Aunt Shuzhen who interrupted Aunt Qiuhong.

It seems that the two village chiefs are trying to stop Meng Xia and the others from driving to the sea together with the villagers.

Meng Xia also noticed this.

Her previous conversation with the village chief had not gone smoothly. After she finally persuaded the village chief to let everyone be quiet for a while, she saw the village chief's daughter-in-law singing against the crowd again.

Meng Xia snorted coldly.

“Since everyone has so many opinions on the method of making money that we finally came up with, and everyone disagrees, we are not willing to force everyone.

"Just for processing seafood, if we set the original processing fee at 1000 yuan, even if we only cook one meal a day, we can earn [-] yuan a month. If someone is good at craftsmanship and can do four The price of ten cents can still be [-] or two hundred cents in one month.

"But it seems that no one is interested in this item. I said I could teach you how to read, but no one seems willing. In this case, we won't waste everyone's time.

"Everyone has come back from a busy day. You haven't had dinner yet, right? Let's go. It's more important to go back and cook and eat."

Meng Xia said, waving his hand to signal everyone to disperse.

Then he walked up to Chang Pingning and Liu Qingwan with a relaxed expression, and discussed with Liu Qingwan what kind of dinner they would cook for the Liu family later.

Chang Pingning, who was standing aside, was surprised. She didn't expect Meng Xia to give up cooperation with Guojiacun.

Liu Qingwan next to her was not as shocked as Chang Pingning. She looked at Meng Xia and did not answer Meng Xia's topic about dinner. Instead, she asked her about her next plan.

Meng Xia looked very relaxed: "Let's discuss it with other nearby villages?" As he said this, he shrugged nonchalantly.

This was overheard by the village chief who came to see Meng Xia.

He originally planned to privately encourage the villagers to oppose the Liu family's proposal, and then take the initiative to discuss with the three girls when they were at a loss, allowing them to share a portion of the profits with him, and then help them talk to the villagers.

Unexpectedly, the girl surnamed Meng refused to cooperate, and after hearing this, she also planned to find another village to cooperate.

The village chief was a little nervous. His Guojia Village was not engaged in production. The people in the village relied entirely on seafood. When they were lucky, they could make a lot of money every year, but they also went to neighboring villages to buy rice and rice. vegetable.

If the two methods proposed by the Liu family are really used properly, the village will not be as rich as the neighboring villages, but it will definitely be much better than it is now.

But because of their own greed, the two girls from the Liu family wanted to cooperate with neighboring villages.

The land in the neighboring village is fertile, and everything grown grows well. He has been the only one in the nearby villages relying on rice and vegetables.

Now that this girl has a way to catch the sea, it will definitely be better than now.

The village chief thought, feeling a little regretful, and quickly stopped him: "Why bother to discuss with the neighboring villages? Our village will discuss it ourselves first. If you three girls stand here and talk, many people will not listen.

"In this case, I will go to the village for you in the next two days to ask questions and see what different opinions everyone has."
