Chapter 509: Catching the Vegetable Thief

ver ten li from the town, and you have to go over this mountain. It takes half a day to go there and back, so it's important to rest well.Zong Bai persuaded Zong Yu again and again, and Zong Yu nodded...Tie Zhu was pressuring Fang Jinxiu to buy new farming tools. In fact, Tie Zhu had mentioned buying new tools before, and Fang Jinxiu knew about it and had made arrangements accordingly.

Zhao Xingzhou has now taken over the Luoshui City Chamber of Commerce. In a few days, materials for building the villa will be transported from the county town. Fang Jinshi plans to have Zhao Xingzhou also solve the problem of farming tools and send them together with the building materials after purchasing.

I hadn't even gotten a chance to tell Tiezhu, but he came to ask me himself today.

Fang Jinshi deliberately withdrew her hand and stood aside, waiting to see how Hu Ailan would resolve the situation.

"Speak up! If you won't pay for new farm tools, are you expecting us to go up the mountain and dig with our bare hands"

"I don't care about delays, the grain I've been preparing to plant has already sprouted. By the end of the month, if this field isn't cleared yet, you'll be responsible for wasting all the seeds."

Hu Ai-lan forced herself to appear calm, but inside she was already in a state of utter panic.

Is it so difficult to just keep a ledger and take care of some trivial matters

She seemed quite at ease before looking at Fang Jinshi. She hardly did anything, spending her days either tinkering with herbs or taking her maids out for strolls.

She would frequently go to the village head Wang's house and they would chat for hours on end. I never saw her do anything else.

How did she end up here, with so many problems and no money!

"Urge urge urge, urge what"

"I need to figure out a solution. There's no money in the account right now, I can't just conjure some up for you."

"No money Impossible." Tiezhu said, his face full of disbelief.

"You wouldn't have swallowed all the money from Big Brother Zong's house just after you came, would you!"

Hu Ailan felt for the first time what it meant to be utterly exasperated, to have a perfectly valid point but be unable to make it understood.

She did want to keep it for herself, but she didn't have the ability to do so!

"You! You, you, one who's in charge, does it even concern you to question me here"

"If it weren't for Zhao Shannu's face, I would have torn you to shreds, you head administrator!"

Tie Zhu was not afraid of her. Jinxiu's sister-in-law would never allow him to be removed from his position, nor would she let Hu Ai Lan run wild.

"Before tomorrow, I will either see new farming tools or the money to buy them."

"If neither of those options works, then the group will just have to go on strike and take a break. You can go up the mountain and do it yourself."

"If you can't finish the land-clearing task by the end of the month, I want to see how you explain it to Big Brother Zongyu!"

When Hu Ailan heard the name Zong Yu, she was jolted. Only then did she remember that even though she had taken over Fang Jinshu's position, these things couldn't completely belong to her. To put it plainly, she had worked herself to death, taking on such a huge risk, and this was still the property of the Zong family.

It belonged to the Zong brothers, Zong Yu and Zong Bai, even Zong Yulian had a share, but she, she was just an outsider.

If Shan Tou really made a lot of money in the future, would her three siblings divide it equally among her and let her continue to be in charge

Hu Ailan was not that naive.

"Alright, alright, no need to remind me. Go back first. I know what to do."

After Tiezhu left, Fang Jinshi turned and left, continuing back to her room to tidy up.

In the small medicinal herb garden in space, many herbs can be harvested and processed. Although these herbs do not lose their efficacy if they are not processed and left in the space, processing them makes it more convenient to use them directly or sell them outside.

That's all right for now.

As for Hu Ailan outside, after a while she fell silent. Fang Jinshu also didn't bother to care what she was doing anymore.

In a moment, she heard Yu Lian’s urgent cries from the courtyard. Fang Jinshi thought something had happened at home again, and her first thought was that Hu Ai Lan might have argued with someone again.

She rushed out of the room, as soon as she opened the door, she was pulled by Yulian's wrist and dragged towards the back of the house.

"What's wrong What's so urgent"

Yulian pointed at the back, her expression very excited.

"Got you! Sister-in-law, got you!"

"Xiao Hua is amazing!"

At that time, Fang Jinxiu hadn't reacted yet, to what he had grabbed.

Took two steps and suddenly remembered, "Oh, did you catch the vegetable thief"

Yu Lian hurriedly nodded.

"Yes! Come quickly, sister-in-law."

Fāng Jǐnxiù followed after her, Yúlían's commotion was quite a stir. Even Mùshì in the room heard it and put down her embroidery. She came to the back of the house with Jīn yù.

Everyone wants to find out who this vegetable thief is. He came to steal at night, but now it's broad daylight! He's really bold to come during the day.nd him slowing, he stopped in his tracks and waited until Fang Jinxiu caught up."Do you, do you like men who can cook"He suddenly asked this question out of the blue, leaving Fang Jinshu somewhat conf...
