The Farmer‘s Eldest Daughter Has a Spatial Pocket

Zhao Dafa shuddered and hurriedly explained, “I didn’t. I didn’t do anything.”

“I don’t really believe it.”

“Really, I swear.” Zhao Dafa was about to cry. “That woman from the Chen family asked me to visit your house more often. I didn’t agree. I rejected her. I didn’t think of stealing. I’m different from a hooligan like Hu Liang. You, you can’t hit me.”

Zhao Dafa was really afraid of Gu Yundong. Not only did he see how Gu Yundong dealt with Hu Liang and the others, but he also saw the scene of Hu Liang’s legs being broken.

He remembered that because Hu Liang had scolded Gu Yundong a few more times, he had been tortured to death by the Peng family’s servants.

That day, when he was in the county city, he saw it with his own eyes. When he returned, he had a nightmare. When he met the Gu family, he avoided them.

Zhao Dafa was certain that Gu Yundong was definitely related to the Peng family and was not someone he could offend.

Gu Yundong could roughly tell from his words that Madam Fang and her daughter did want Zhao Dafa to cause trouble for her family, but Zhao Dafa was afraid of her and rejected them.

It was not difficult to understand what Zhuangzi had said about the two of them quarreling.

She had heard before that people who hit their wife and children at home were usually cowards outside. They bullied the weak and feared the strong.

Zhao Dafa was one of them.

“Can, can I leave now?” Zhao Dafa asked in a low voice.

Gu Yundong looked at him and did not know what to say. He nodded and ignored him. He got back into the carriage.

She was very busy. When she got back, she started recruiting people to prepare sugar.

She had also chosen a temporary address. Chen Liang had helped her find it. It was a family with the surname Liu in the village.

That family was a young couple who lived with their father. There was a huge courtyard at home. It was said that it had been used to raise chickens a long time ago. However, a few years ago, there was a chicken plague and more than half of the chickens died.

Not only did the Liu family suffer a huge loss, but they also owed an external debt. Last year, they had just paid off all their debt before their son married a wife.

When they heard that the Gu family wanted to rent their courtyard, the three of them agreed.

Due to the size of the courtyard and the noise of sugar making, Gu Yundong’s rent was 800 copper coins a month.

She had a place, but she was short of manpower.

Gu Yundong began to recruit openly. At first, she considered the people who had built a house for her family. However, these people weren’t free now and followed Feng Daneng everywhere.

Chen Liang was enthusiastic and helped her pass the message yesterday.

Therefore, when Gu Yundong returned home from the county city, there were many people gathered at the entrance of the Gu residence. Not only were there people from the village, but there were also many people from the neighboring village.

Upon seeing her return, all of them rushed forward and asked, “Yundong, is your family really going to hire someone to help with the work? How much is the salary?”

“Yundong, are you really going to build a workshop?”

“Yundong, what do you think of me? I’m very strong. I can do anything you want me to.”

“Yundong…”

Gu Yundong was surrounded and almost pushed through the door. All of them were calling her so affectionately. They had clearly not spoken before.

She coughed lightly and stood on the steps. “Everyone, listen to me. I do want to set up a sugar workshop, but the workshop can only be built after spring. At the moment, I can only borrow the Liu family’s courtyard to use for the time being, so I won’t hire many people. About ten people will be enough. The salary will be set at 500 copper coins a month. If you do your job well, it will naturally be increased.”

500 copper coins was a lot.

“Of course, the workers have to be diligent when I hire people, and…”

“Miss Gu, what do you think of me? I’m very efficient.”

Gu Yundong was interrupted before she could finish speaking. She frowned slightly and looked at the person who spoke. She did not recognize him. He did not seem to be from the village.

However, Dong Xiulan’s expression instantly turned ugly when she saw this person..
