n dug up, and the wildflowers had mostly wilted.

They had roughly sketched out a piece of land, and Zhong Cheng marked it using his shovel, “I can reclaim this land, you won’t have to worry about it.
You just have to deal with your own business.
Since you’ve rented a storefront, you have to run it well!”

Mo Ling insisted, “You have to accept money, or we’ll find someone else.”

Zhong Cheng nodded, “Alright, we’ll use the previously agreed-on price of two hundred dollars per acre.”

“This piece of land will be hard to reclaim, and you might only be able to reclaim a single acre in a day.
You’re doing laborious work and even using your own work animals, but you’re only earning two hundred dollars per day…”

Mo Ling turned to Mrs.
Liang, who looked to the side.
When it came to money, her principle was to have as much profit as possible.
After all, what she wanted was cheap and good labour, but Mo Ling went against this principle.

“Four hundred dollars per acre, don’t reject this offer.
We’ll try to buy our own work animals next year, so we won’t have to bother you in the future!”

Mrs.
Liang opened her mouth without saying anything, but she remembered that no one had made lunch for her darling Feng’er.
So she instantly rushed back home.

Mo Ling said to Zhong Cheng, “You should go back first! You’ve helped us a lot recently, thank you so much!”

This made Zhong Cheng sigh, “Alright, don’t overwork yourself.” After saying that, he left.

Mo Yan and Mo Ling returned home together, discussing what they’d sell in their store.

Inside, Mo Feng was eating lunch.
Inside his bowl were beansprouts, and they weren’t fried, just marinated with sauce.

Mo Yan asked, “Are you eating beansprouts marinated with sauce?”

He replied grumpily, “It’s a far cry from lamb soup!”

“It’s not our fault you didn’t come and help.
If you had helped, not only would you have been able to drink lamb soup, you’d also get to drink herbal tea! You’d also have all the crackers you’d want, since Lu Junming was paying for everything.”

After hearing her speak, Mo Feng felt even unhappy.
Why does having meat and hard work always go hand-in-hand?

Mo Yan grabbed one of the beansprouts and took a bite.
It was crunchy and the taste of the sauce was clear.
It was delicious, just a little salty.

“Mum, these are delicious, but if only they were less salty!”

“That’d dilute and waste some sauce.
By making it saltier, I won’t have to dilute it.”

Mo Yan had never eaten this in her past life and found it special.

“Mum, since we have a storefront now, you can make some to sell from now on.”

“Can this even be sold?”

“Of course.
As long as it tastes good, anything can be sold.
If you haven’t revealed everything you know how to make, now’s the time to do so.”

Once she heard about making money, Mrs.
Liang perked up, “This is the season to buy and salt vegetables.
I’ll buy some more on the next market day.”

“Alright, just make it in the Ng family courtyard so you won’t have to take it here to there all the time.
They also have a well, so it’ll be easy to wash the vegetables.”

Post-edit notes: Hi.
I’m posting this chappie now because I have a lot of tests on Tuesday, and I don’t want to translate on Monday (which is when I’m supposed to have finished this chappie) instead of revising for said tests.
Also, I’d feel bad for delaying the chappie for a day, so…here you go! Next chappie will be on Tuesday, after I finish my tests.
