"Yes! I also planned this way. In addition, with the help of the young prince, I feel even more confident!" Zhang Yuanli nodded repeatedly.

Gao Feng immediately grasped the point. "The little prince's help?"

"Isn't that?" Zhang Yuanli said with a smile, "In recent years, Brother Wei and the young prince supported each other in the border area, and the relationship between the two was very good. This time, Brother Yu got engaged and came to have a wedding banquet. By the way, he asked me if he had any plans to open a branch in the provincial capital. I said that he was planning to write a letter for me, saying that when I really went over and tried, I would give this letter to the prefect and the wealthy families in the provincial capital, and they would definitely not obstruct me."

Gao Feng took the letter and looked at it, and nodded. "The little prince is really good at it."

This letter was written in his own name. In fact, the words in his heart were very simple, and he begged these people to help Zhang Yuanli within his ability.

He is the young prince of the Hou of Xining, and he is doing well in the border area now, and the Hou of Xining is still living well in the provincial capital! So how dare these people not give him face?

When Zhang Yuanli went to the provincial capital to start a business, what he feared most was not to struggle alone, but to the obstruction of the nobles. These people had been rooted in the provincial capital for a long time, and they were both strong dragons and local snakes. If they wanted to find trouble, Zhang Yuanli's Zuixian Tower could not be opened for a moment.

So, Zhang Yuanli's letter will definitely help him a lot.

"That's it!" Zhang Yuanli took the letter and carefully folded it up. He squeezed his eyes at Gao Feng, "Brother, it's not me that this young prince is handsome and has a good character. He is worthy of Chen and Xiao. Since that's the case, why should you be so cautious about him?"

Gao Feng's face immediately became darker.

Zhang Yuanli raised his hands high. "Okay, okay, I won't say anything, I won't say anything! That's your daughter. You have the final say for their lifelong affairs. I will never interrupt again!"

Gao Feng's face looked a little better.

"but……"

Immediately, Zhang Yuanli whispered again: "I found that the Nan'an Prince seems to be very interested in the Chen Yatou sisters! Especially Xiao Yatou. Brother, do you want to be careful about him?"

"What did you say?" Gao Feng immediately turned around.

Zhang Yuanli nodded carefully. "I'm serious. Isn't Xiaoyato very good at shooting archery? This prince is also very good at shooting archery, at least Brother Wei and Xiaoyao can't compare. So when they were in my family, they had a good chance to shoot archery skills together. I saw his attitude towards Xiaoyato became warm."

Gao Feng's eyes darkened again in an instant. "I understand."

Then, when Zhang Yuanli had just left, he quickly called his daughter over.

After he asked these words, the two daughters immediately admitted heartlessly.

"Yes! I have fought with them more than a dozen times these days, and we have all lost, but we still win repeatedly in archery!" Chen Yatou looked proud, "Gan Shirui and the second brother are so stupid. They have not made much progress when they go to the battlefield. I have ridiculed them many times!"

"Only the prince of Nan'an can barely fight with me. And we communicated for a while and found that our archery skills were similar." Xiaoyatou also said with a smile.

"By the way, Dad, he told me that his dad's shooting skills are even better! And he is the one with the least talent in their family. His younger brother has shown more skills since he was a child than he was at that age. So, if his father and mother face each other, who will win and lose in the end?"

"I must win." Gu Caining answered without hesitation.

In modern times, her shooting level has reached the peak of the world, and there is no one or two people in the world who can compare with her. So now in this era, those who have not received professional training cannot compete with her!

At this point, she has always been very confident.

When Xiaoya heard this, she stuck out her tongue. "Mom, you are the most amazing!"

"That's more to say?" Gu Caining raised his eyebrows, and a hint of pride appeared between his eyebrows.

She turned her gaze to Gao Feng. "And, no matter whether he comes to me or not in the future, I will go to him. I must defeat him, myself."

She said this to him on purpose. Gao Feng heard it, and he felt warm immediately.

"I'll wait for that day," he whispered.

Of course, Brother Wei only brought out a small wave when he came back this time. After he left, everything disappeared invisible.

At this time, the families in Shuangliu Village who later started raising snakes gradually developed experiences.

After two years, they also paid off their debts and began to make a surplus.

The remaining families saw it, and they couldn't help but come to ask Gao Feng to take them. As long as they spoke, Gao Feng agreed without hesitation.

Before we knew it, Shuangliu Village was named after it and was nicknamed Snake Village. Of course, the scale of the snake circle in Qingshan Town has been expanding again and again, and the important snake vegetables in Zuixianlou are provided here.

There is also the Zuixianlou in the provincial capital. Zhang Yuanli devoted a lot of effort to the purchase of snake meat. He did not dare to be careless at all when purchasing snake meat, so the snake meat in Zuixianlou in the provincial capital naturally came from the snake circle under Wang San.

Wang San has been raising snakes more and more convenient in recent years. With his careful care, so many succulent snakes are fat and strong, and they are very delicious whether they are stewed or braised. These meats are sent to the provincial capital, and no one dislikes the guests of the provincial capital after eating them.

Because of this, their business in the snake circle is getting better and better. Although the unit price of meat snakes has decreased as the output of snake meat increases, its annual income has been rising, and it has earned more than 100 taels of silver a year!

With the income of his sons, the annual income of their family is several times more than the combined total of the past 30 years!

With this money, he built a big house for his family and married his son in a grand manner. Their family suddenly became the third most prominent family in Shuangliu Village.

The second-ranked family is Gao Feng’s family, and the first one is of course the village chief’s family.

However, although the snakes raised by Wang San are popular, they originally wanted to take care of the forest in Qingshan Town to take care of the Black Wind Circle, and the snake circle was built by the way. Until now, they have adhered to this concept, so the scope of the snake circle has not expanded much in recent years.

As a result, as the Zuixianlou branch opened more and more, these snake meat was far from enough. Just so happened that the snakes raised by the villagers of Shuangliu Village were substitutes.

The scraps of snake meat in the Zuixianlou branch and the jerky snake meat transported to the soldiers of the border are mostly from these families.

Because there are more and more people here, Baohetang cannot withstand the pressure of snake gallbladder and snake bones being sent every day, so he simply came to Shuangliu Village to open a medicine shop and placed the base for making snake medicine here. Moreover, it takes up a lot of space! Master Li's son also came here to take charge of the overall situation in person.

By the way, they also opened a small medicine shop next to the forest in Qingshan Town. The main function of this small medicine shop is also to make snake medicine. By the way, they also took advantage of the advantages of the forest to plant some herbs.

Qingshan Town made a lot of money from here again, and Ge Li was so happy!

Therefore, no matter whether he met Fan Lizheng or Gao Feng, he would speak up with a "good brother" and was extremely intimate.

The villagers in Shuangliu Village are getting richer.

Once you become rich, some people begin to be complacent.

On this day, the village chief suddenly asked his grandson to come and invite Gao Feng over. "Grandpa said, please bring more money, Uncle Gao."

Although Gao Feng was not sure about this, he still asked Gu Caining to find him a few silver notes and a pack of broken silver, and then followed the village chief's grandson.

When he arrived at the village chief's house, he saw that the village chief was calm and looked very unhappy.

There was a villager standing opposite the village chief. The villagers' face was filled with embarrassing smiles. When Gao Feng came in, he quickly greeted Gao Feng.

Gao Feng nodded at him and came to the village chief: "Is there anything you have to do with me?"

The village chief immediately raised his eyelids: "Brother Feng, how much more money does your family have now?"

"What happened to you at your family, village chief? How much does it cost? Just speak!" Gao Feng said immediately.

"I don't want money. He wants money." The village chief pointed to the villager opposite.

The villager quickly smiled. "My husband, don't do this. I'm busy raising snakes and have no time to take care of those fields? Besides, now my family has about ten taels of silver for raising snakes every year. This money is enough for our family to live a good life. Why do we waste our time on these fields?"

Gao Feng understood. "Are you going to sell land?"

"Yes, yes!" the villagers nodded, "It's all thanks to you, Brother Feng! If you hadn't taught me how to raise snakes at home, how could we make so much money in a year? Now that we have money, we want to relax for a few years and enjoy it well. So we don't plan to plant this land. Now, today I will take all the land deeds and ask the village chief to help sell it."

Gao Feng frowned. "Land is the foundation of farmers. Even if we have made money by raising snakes now, we can't lose this at all!"

"Hey, there was no other way in the past, and I only ate the root of farmers. But now isn't there any foundation for raising snakes? So what does it matter if I want this root?" The villagers refused to change their minds.

Gao Feng wanted to say it again, but the village chief waved his hand. "You don't have to talk to him anymore. I have said all the things he should say. He doesn't listen to you anymore, so you don't have to say it anymore. Now I'm asking you to come over and I'm not asking you to persuade him."

"What do you mean?"

"I asked you to come, to ask you if you want these places? If you want them, I will give you money and deliver the goods at the same time. Let's get things done now!" The village chief slapped the table.

Gao Feng pursed his lips. "If they don't want it, then of course I'm willing to."

Now, except for snakes, the most money is their family. They are worried that they have no place to spend money!

"Okay, this matter is settled!" The village chief immediately made the decision, and the villagers were happy, so both parties changed the name on the land deed. The villagers took the money and went home happily, and Gao Feng also took the land deed and handed it to Gu Caining.

Gu Caining took these land deeds, and she just smiled. "That's how people are. Since they have a more profitable life, who is willing to work so hard all year round? Moreover, we used to have money, and we could ask the villagers to help. But now almost everyone in the village has money, and they have hired people to do the things in the fields. The labor costs have increased a lot in the past two years! So much money is spent on the ground, but they can't make much money in the end. With this time, they spend on snakes, but they can earn several times as much as they can take care of the fields. If it were you, wouldn't you?"

"I'm not happy." Gao Feng shook his head, "Snakes must be raised, but the land cannot be given up. Since we are countrymen, we must keep our duties as countrymen."

puff!

Gu Caining couldn't help laughing.

"Hey, I understand what you mean. In fact, looking at the gentry, they all have money apart? But they will not abandon their fertile land, but instead try to find ways to build land. They also know very well that the land is real, and other businesses, who knows when a storm comes, it will blow it away?"

"It's just that, they understand the truth, but the villagers in the village don't. They just want to hold the ready-made money in their hands now, and they have long ignored the others. This is the difference between people. Even if we know, we can't control it."

"I understand." Gao Feng nodded, still couldn't help but sigh, "They will definitely regret it in the future."

"People always have to pay a price for their temporary situation. As for the amount of this price, it depends on how God arranges it." Gu Caining said, "But now that there is so much ready-made land in front of us, we should not be fools. Anyway, we have too much money to spend, so let's buy it! Buy more land to lay the foundation for the children in the future."

Gao Feng nodded again, then closed his eyes and stopped talking.

What they didn't expect was that they had just bought a house for their land, and the news immediately spread, and other villagers came to the door and offered to sell their land to them!

They even said, "Now in the village, I believe in Feng Ge'er and you and his wife. I'm not relieved to sell my land to others, so I can only give it to you. I believe you will definitely take good care of them and will not mess around!"

Gao Feng twitched his mouth several times, but in the end he could only swallow all his words back, and then silently took out the money to buy land.

For a time, almost most of the families in the village were moved and took out their own land and sold it to Gao Feng's family. Except for the elderly at home, the elderly held the land deed and refused to let go. As children, they had no choice but to take back the land deed. The rest of the families, the better ones, also left a few acres of food fields for their own homes, and those who were a little bolder sold all the land directly!

They turned around and invested the money from selling land into raising snakes, quickly expanding the scale. In this way, they did make another big profit in the short term.

Gao Feng's family was also inexplicably saved more than a thousand acres of fertile land in their hands one after another.

As a result, Shuangliu Village, the snake-raising village, became more and more famous. Some people from other places even came here to buy meat snakes when they heard the news.

The price they gave was slightly higher than that of Zuixianlou, so some villagers became interested and took the initiative to do business with foreign merchants.

Of course, with the lessons from the family on Saturday before, they went to explain the situation to Gao Feng in advance.

After hearing what they thought, Gao Feng nodded: "Since you can make more money, then you can make money! But every month I stipulate that I should take it out to make snake jerky and send it to the army, which is not small."
