Looking at the open box, Huang Xiaocui and Li Xiuli were both stunned. Neither of them had expected that the box was filled with money.
On the way back, although Li Xiuli had asked what was inside, Zhan Lingfeng did not answer her, telling her to look when she got home. Now seeing that it was a box full of money, she felt a bit scared as they carried the box back.
Huang Xiaocui was even more shocked. Although her son had always been making money, she had developed some immunity to his actions. However, seeing such a large amount of money still frightened her.
"Look at how scared you both are; our family's money will only increase from now on."
"Xiu, how did this come about?"
Zhan Lingfeng did not hide anything from them. After all, if he didn't explain, they would genuinely worry about the source of the money.
After hearing Zhan Lingfeng's explanation, the two women became even more concerned. "Is it really safe?"
Li Xiuli also looked at Zhan Lingfeng with concern. She realized that she truly could not understand him anymore. The current Zhan Lingfeng seemed like a different person—capable in combat, skilled in business, and most surprisingly, his academic performance improved dramatically every day. She even believed that if there were an exam now, she might not score higher than him.
"Mom, don't worry; you know what kind of person your son is. Right now, they are not my opponents. After a while, even if they use guns, they won't be able to harm me."
"You still need to be cautious; both your father-in-law and I are ordinary people!"
Li Xiuli now understood that Zhan Lingfeng was a mysterious Cultivator, and her feelings were complicated.
"Mom, sooner or later I will embark on the path of immortality. I will help you build up our business here. Once the business is established, even if I leave, I will feel at ease."
Saying this, he looked at Li Xiuli and said, "In-law, you know my situation to some extent now. Because of this, I won't treat you poorly. Moreover, I support your education; as long as you can study well, I will support you to any school. If you develop your own romantic life, I won't interfere."
Zhan Lingfeng spoke earnestly. Huang Xiaocui did not say anything in response but nodded and said, "In-law, I agree with what Xiu said; after all, he is no longer one of us."
At this moment, Li Xiuli bravely looked at Zhan Lingfeng and said, "I was born into a Warrior Family and will die as a ghost of the Warrior Family. Right now, I am your woman!"
Zhan Lingfeng was somewhat taken aback and thought to himself that this girl was indeed changing quite quickly.
Huang Xiaocui smiled and hugged Li Xiuli, saying, "Of course I won't let go of such a good daughter-in-law."
At this point, as if suddenly remembering something, she said to Zhan Lingfeng, "Your dad called."
"Ah!"
Zhan Lingfeng was somewhat surprised; he hadn't received any news from his father and really didn't know what kind of situation he was in now.
"I told him about things here. He said he would come back; he's currently working on a construction site laying bricks."
"Okay, let him come back. After he returns, you two can manage together, and then I can rest assured to do other things."
"Well, with this money we have now, it can alleviate some pressure. However, what will we do if we can't ship the goods out?"
"Let's first get those projects started. Tell everyone not to worry about money. Our house is no longer livable, so I plan to build a yard on the contracted land. Next, I also intend to develop further with everyone. Therefore, I plan to set up a lime kiln; lime must be produced. Also, we need to get bricks because we will need a large quantity of them."
"We don't need to do that; there's a brick factory in the neighboring village. We can just buy them. Our village has a kiln for lime as well; it used to be used when needed. Moreover, there’s also a tile factory in the village that used to produce some tiles."
"By the way, your uncle's village has someone who works in the city on construction projects; building houses shouldn't be a problem."
Zhan Lingfeng smiled and said, "Let's wait until Dad comes back before doing anything. After all, he has been to the city and seen construction projects; he has participated in construction work, so we can just leave it to him then."
"But what about the money? Keeping it at home makes me anxious; I don't even dare to go out."
"I'll leave one hundred thousand at home and take the other four hundred thousand to the countryside. I've made arrangements with someone and will go to the countryside tomorrow to buy a yard. I've looked at the situation of the yard and plan to renovate it for use as a receiving point for goods from the countryside. Both my uncle's goods and ours can be stored there, making it easier to transport them from the countryside."
"Anyway, I don't understand this; you just handle it." Huang Xiaocui still showed that infinite trust in her son.
"Yes, walking that long mountain road every day isn't easy. Once the house in the countryside is renovated, my son-in-law and I will stay there and return once a week."
Thinking about her husband returning, Huang Xiaocui nodded and said, "You all take care of yourselves; don't rush the children." As she said this, she pulled Li Xiuli and said, "Come on, Mom wants to talk to you about some things."
Zhan Lingfeng also felt a bit uneasy; it seemed that his mother was worried about him and Li Xiuli having children.
Seeing his mother become more lively lifted Zhan Lingfeng's spirits as well; it showed that he had made many changes for this family.
Standing in the yard and looking at the land he had contracted, Zhan Lingfeng was also contemplating what to do next.
If it were just ordinary farming or breeding, that wouldn't work; there wasn't much competitive strength. What Zhan Lingfeng was thinking about was the means of cultivation. Even if there was no Spiritual Energy on Earth, he could still do a lot of things. Using Feng Shui Formation could actually work too.
Right, Feng Shui Formation could also gather Spiritual Energy. Since Feng Shui Formation can gather Spiritual Energy, it makes no sense that there is none on Earth.
Upon serious reflection, Zhan Lingfeng nodded to himself; it was indeed rare but not nonexistent.
If he continuously infused Spiritual Energy into the beasts he raised, would their meat quality improve and become more popular among people?
The tea garden was actually the most profitable venture; as long as it was managed well, it would be a treasure trove.
With various thoughts racing through his mind, Zhan Lingfeng picked up a bottle of medicinal liquid and walked towards the apricot tree again. This was part of his daily routine for Bone Cleansing and Marrow Washing.
The village had changed from before; smoke was rising from chimneys everywhere. In the past, there were hardly any families with smoke rising during mealtime. Zhan Lingfeng knew that all of this was brought about by him.
