Dress up as a farmer's wife from the Wang family and fight for the best with space

However, Gu Yunxi frowned slightly as he looked at the Yuan family's small yard, which was full of wood.

Several helpers and carpenters that the Yuan family found in the village were busy walking back and forth, making the yard seem even more crowded.

Gu Yunxi thought about it, sat aside, and waited for the Yuan father and son to rest and drink water before discussing with them.

"Uncle Yuan, I have a suggestion. Do you think it will work?"

"Your yard is not very big, and our furniture shop has received a lot of orders. Right now, we only have a few carpenters like you, and we can't handle it in a short time. I think we should hire more people."

There are a lot of orders now. If Yuan and his son finish making all the furniture, it will take a month or even two months.

It takes so long that some customers may not be able to wait in time.

If customers get tired of waiting, they will come to cancel their order, and some will even complain, which is not a good thing for the furniture shop.

Gu Yunxi glanced around Yuan Yuan's yard which was full of wood, paused, and continued: "But continue to look for workers. Your yard can't accommodate so many people."

"So, I thought, why don't we just open a furniture workshop?"

Uncle Yuan was stunned when he heard this, and then he immediately slapped his forehead and cheered!

"Yunxi, I think your idea is really good. You can open a furniture workshop and sell the furniture produced in the workshop in the furniture shop in town. That's right, that's better!"

"However, how do I open this furniture workshop? I don't have any idea in mind. What do you think?"

Uncle Yuan has been a carpenter for half his life. In the past, he only took small orders and made some simple furniture.

Ever since my family and Gu Yunxi opened a furniture shop together, orders for custom-made furniture have been pouring in like a tide, increasing in number every day.

Even so, he was already very satisfied. He had never been so busy in his life.

But if you ask him to open a furniture workshop... he really can't do it. He lacks the ability and has no plan in his mind.

Gu Yunxi didn't force it, and asked with a smile: "Brother Yuan, what do you think? What do you think about opening a furniture workshop?"

Brother Yuan was waxing the finished furniture. When he heard Gu Yunxi's question, he paused and grinned, "Yunxi, I really don't understand this."

"But I think it's probably just like the furniture shop in our town. First, they prepare to build a workshop, recruit workers to work, and then arrange for someone to manage the workshop."

After saying that, Brother Yuan smiled a little embarrassedly and scratched his head, saying: "This is just nonsense, it can't be used as a reference."

Brother Yuan was very unconfident, but he had learned a few things from watching Gu Yunxi run the furniture shop these days.

Gu Yunxi smiled and nodded, saying: "Brother Yuan is right. If we open a furniture workshop, the first step is to build a workshop."

"Uncle Yuan, I think the workshop should be built in the village. Let's ask the village chief to buy a piece of vacant land, build it quickly and put it into use. This way, you won't have to crowd into your house to make furniture in the future."

"Also, after the furniture workshop is built, we can hire more helpers, including carpenters. We have to hurry up and make the furniture. After all, our furniture shop is only in the town, and the people who place orders are only people in the town."

"In the future, as the reputation of our furniture shop spreads, more and more people will know that we can make all kinds of furniture. People from the next town, county, next county, and even the prefecture may come to order furniture."

Yuan's father and son listened. Although they didn't know whether Gu Yunxi's prediction was correct or not, they always felt that what Gu Yunxi said must be correct!

Therefore, Yuan's father and son believed in Gu Yunxi unconditionally.

Uncle Yuan immediately put down the work at hand, took Gu Yunxi directly to the village chief's house, found the village chief, and explained his purpose.

Village chief Gu Jiaxiong was a little surprised because Gu Yunxi had just bought a piece of vacant land from him a few days ago to build a house for her father, Gu Lao Da.

Now, Gu Yunxi and the Yuan family came to buy land again. What do they want to build... a furniture workshop?

No one had ever heard of that thing, but just by hearing the name, the village chief knew that it was used to make furniture, so he took Uncle Yuan and Gu Yunxi around the village.

"I don't know what kind of land is suitable for a workshop. You can choose one by yourselves?" said the village chief, pointing to an open space not far ahead.

Uncle Yuan subconsciously looked at Gu Yunxi, wanting Gu Yunxi to make the decision.

Gu Yunxi smiled and pointed to a large open space of about three or four acres at the foot of the mountain in front of him, and said, "Village Chief, I want this piece, from the foot of the mountain to where we are standing."

"This, such a large piece of land? No, Yunxi, you have to think about it carefully. Such a large piece of land will cost a lot of money!" The village chief couldn't help but persuade.

The land that Gu Yunxi had just circled out was about four acres. If he bought it all, based on the current land price, it would cost at least several dozen taels of silver.

Gu Yunxi had just spent a lot of money to buy that piece of land, and now he had to spend so much money again. The village chief felt a little reluctant.

He also felt that Gu Yunxi had only made a little money, and that young people couldn't hide it in their pockets, so they spent it lavishly without any restraint.

Little did he know that Gu Yunxi's private money was more than he had ever seen in his life!

Gu Yunxi knew what the village chief was thinking as soon as he heard it, and said with a smile: "Uncle Village Chief, you don't have to worry about me. I can still afford the money."

"The furniture shop collected some deposits two days ago, and I have some money on hand. I won't be out of money if I buy this land."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Yuan also hurriedly agreed: "Yes, village chief, this land is used to build a workshop. Yunxi and I will pay for it together."

When the village chief saw that both of them said this, he stopped trying to persuade them.

However, after measuring the land and settling the money, the village chief took the initiative and removed two taels of silver from the original total of forty-five taels, leaving only forty-five taels.

The village chief smiled and said, "Yunxi, I will go to the government office tomorrow morning to get the land deed for you."

After collecting so much silver, the villagers had some silver to share. Now, the lives of many families could be improved.

At least, I have money and I don’t have to starve for the time being.

The village chief walked excitedly to the center of the village, rang a broken bell, and summoned all the villagers to share the silver!

When the villagers heard that there was more money to be shared, they all came out with their families, staring at the village chief with eager eyes.

"Everyone, I asked you all to come out today because I have something good to tell you. I believe some of you already know it. That's right, it's about dividing the money!"

"I sold another piece of land in our village. This time I sold it to Gu Yunxi and the Yuan family. They wanted to open a furniture workshop together. I sold it for a total of 45 taels. Everyone lined up and divided the money according to the number of people."

When everyone heard this, they rushed to line up, fearing that if they were late, their money would be lost.
