Village Chief Liu also nodded in agreement: "That's right. We should plant more cotton this year, and when the harvest is ready in the second half of the year, we can send the children to the Princess's Academy. Now the academy hasn't started construction yet, so we can still save some money."
"Whoever says no, and whoever dares to have such an idea, we will be the first to not forgive them." Village Chief Liu snorted and said.
"Are there people in your villages who can build houses? If there are, call them over. It doesn't matter if you don't have a house built at home. As long as you are not dishonest and work hard, you can come and be a laborer. The wage for a laborer is 70 cents a day without meals, and the wage for a master is 80 cents a day without meals." Wang Jinhe really liked this kind of village chief with a positive outlook.
The village chiefs were very happy, as this way they could earn some money during the months of building the workshop and the academy.
"Don't worry, Princess. We can find as many people as you want." Several people said happily.
"Thank you for your help, everyone."
"It's no trouble. We are so happy that the princess has given us this opportunity to make money." Thinking that life will get better and better in the future, several village heads had smiles on their faces.
Fortunately, their ideas are different from Shangwen’s. What would happen if they were the same as Shangwen
Wouldn’t that offend the princess
"Then let's go here. The place I want is big. The workshop alone may take about 50 acres, and then I will have to build warehouses and so on. As for the academy, I will choose another place. If the distance is too close, it will disturb the children's classes." This place is only suitable for building workshops and warehouses, not for building an academy.
Village Chief Jiang thought for a moment and asked, "Princess, do you have any requirements for the location of the academy?"

"The environment is good and the place is quiet." Wang Jinhe said after thinking for a while.
"We also have a place here that can be used. It's a bamboo forest with a large mud pit on the side. If the princess needs it, she can take it directly. You just have to dig out the mud pit." Otherwise the smell will be too strong.
"Come on, take me to see it." This place is really nice.
Several village heads took Wang Jinhe to have a look. The quagmire was at least ten acres in size. There was a bamboo forest on the side and a large piece of wasteland under the bamboo forest.
This place is really quite nice.
"Princess, do you think this place is okay?" asked several village chiefs.
"Of course, this place is really nice."
We dug lotus trees directly into this mud pit and planted them. It would be so nice to enjoy the flowers in summer and eat lotus roots in autumn.
"Okay, you guys help me find someone first, someone who is honest and willing to work. I'll bring them over in three days and then tell you what to do. It would be best if every family could be taken care of." Wang Jinhe said to the village heads.
Village Chief Jiang and the others nodded quickly: "Hey, Princess, don't worry, we will make everything clear to everyone and let those who can work come."
The people in their villages were basically good people. Even if there were some who gave up on themselves, it was because life was hard these days. But now that the princess had given them a chance, they certainly couldn't miss it.
Wang Jinhe gave some instructions for a while before taking Nan Qiao and the others away.
On the way back, Nan Qiao bit a grass root and said, "Sister-in-law, I quite like the village chiefs of these villages."
If the villagers were allowed to open up such a large area, it would not be a small piece of land. In the end, it was given directly to my sister-in-law.
Although their purpose was also to ask their sister-in-law to give them some opportunities to work and earn money in the future, this kind of trust was the same as that of the people in Xiejia Village.
The people over there just do whatever my sister-in-law says, and they never doubt whether what my sister-in-law says is right or whether it can really help them change their predicament and make money.
The same is true for the village chiefs of these villages.
It reminded him of Xiejia Village and the surrounding villages.
"Sister-in-law, someone is following us." Luo Yan glanced at someone not far away and said with a frown.
"They should be people from Shangjia Village. Shang Wen asked him to come. They probably want to know what my purpose in coming to Jianghe Village is. Since they want to know, just tell them." Wang Jinhe said with a sneer.

Do you think you will get any benefit from doing this
These people are so naive and ridiculous.
"Sister-in-law is right."
"Then don't care about it?" Luo Yan didn't like the feeling of being monitored. He would feel very bad whenever he thought about someone staring at him.
Wang Jinhe smiled and nodded: "No matter what, Shangwen will come to see me later, let's go."
"good."
"Sister-in-law, even if Shangwen comes to you, you can't give him this opportunity. He is a bastard who will not do anything without profit. The village chiefs of Jianghe Village are better people." Nan Qiao said angrily.
This Shangwen is just an ungrateful guy. His sister-in-law gave him a chance, but he dared to do it perfunctorily
Who do you really think you are? You are totally clueless.
Wang Jinhe smiled: "I know what you said. There is no need to be angry with such people. You only have one chance. You can't blame others if you don't seize it."

She had already given him a chance, but Shangwen himself didn't want it. It would be useless even if he came to find her later.
After these two contacts with the chief of Jianghe Village, she had the same idea as Nan Qiao. These villages were more worthy of her attention, and she should start making money from around these villages.
As for Shangjia Village, she doesn't have such an idea now.
"That's good."
After seeing Wang Jinhe off, Village Chief Liu and the others said happily, "What are you all waiting for? Let's go quickly. We have to go back and tell everyone this good news."
"That's right. I do need to tell everyone, but let's wait until the people who are doing the land reclamation go back for lunch." Wouldn't it be a waste of time to call people back now
"That's right, we were wrong. We were so busy enjoying ourselves that we forgot about the land reclamation."
"Isn't it a conflict to reclaim land and build houses at the same time?" Village chief Jiang said with a frown.
Village Chief Liu thought about it and said, "Why don't we discuss it with the princess when she comes over? Can we wait until we have cleared all the land for growing cotton before we have people build the house?"
The cotton field is the most important thing at this stage. The workshop and the academy cannot be built in a day or two.

Before they could sell cotton for money, they didn't have the money to send their children to school.
Now that it is built, it can only be left there.
"Okay, we'll discuss it with the princess then."
"Okay, everyone go back, there are still a lot of things to do at home."
When the village heads went home, the people Shang Wen sent to monitor the villages also went back: "The village head princess not only wants to build workshops in Jianghe Village and the other villages, but also build academies. The places have been selected."
"I heard that after the workshop is built, every family in those villages will be able to have someone work in the workshop."
