“Auntie Cui, you can just speak freely. You and Auntie Wang are like my family members. We’re all unfamiliar with this place and we have to be united. Just say what’s on your mind,” Qiao Mei said gently.

“My husband had previously worked on a farm for a period of time and is very experienced in raising cows. l… I want to ask you if I can ask him to come for an interview. If you think he’s a capable person, perhaps you can hire him. If not, I’ll ask him to go home immediately!” Auntie Cui’s voice became softer and softer as she spoke. It was not easy for Qiao Mei to hear what Auntie Cui was saying.

“Of course. I still need one more of my own people to work on the farm! He can come over anytime, but I don’t have any more accommodation here. If he’s willing to make do, there’s a room in the farm that he can use. He can stay there for the time being. His salary will be the same as Butler Xu and the other two guys, 800 dollars a month,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“Good, good, good! Thank you! Miss Qiao, you’re really helping our family a lot!” Auntie Cui said with tears in her eyes.

“l heard from Auntie Wang that you have two children. It’s not that convenient for the children to stay at the farm. I’ll ask Butler Xu to look for a small tiled house and your whole family can stay there if you wish. You can choose for yourselves. Once you’ve made your decision, just let Butler Xu know,” Qiao Mei said.

After making these arrangements for the farm, Qiao Mei went to bed. She had stayed up late to work for a few days in a row and could not take it anymore. The cows had produced milk for the first time recently but she still did not know how much milk could be produced or how much money they could earn.

Qiao Mei had hired more than 10 milkers and they were able to process all the milk on the farm daily. The buyers would come straight to Qiao Mei’s farm to collect the milk. Qiao Mei decided to name the farm “Hehua Farm”. All the products from the farm would have labels bearing the logo of “Hehua Farm”.

In every place where milk was sold, one would see milk produced by “Hehua

Farm”. The brand silently infiltrated the market and entered everyone’s lives.

The cows on the farm ate hay that was infused with Qiao Mei’s energy. Not only did it improve the yield, but even the taste of the milk was different from the ones sold in the market. It tasted richer and purer.

After one round, Qiao Mei sold nearly 100,000 dollars worth of goods. After deducting the money she spent earlier on renovating the farm and buying the farm animals, she had made a profit of about 40,000 dollars. Due to the overwhelming popularity of the milk from “Hehua Farm”, many distributors called up Qiao Mei and she had orders lined up for the whole of next year.

“Let’s split the profits equally. In the future, ‘Hehua Farm’ belongs to the two of us,” Qiao Mei said.

“But I don’t know how to manage a farm…” Xia He said awkwardly.

“l think you’ve done quite well recently. Besides, you don’t have to spend too much effort on it. We have professionals looking after everything. You just have to go there and take a look from time to time,” Qiao Mei said.

“You… you’re not leaving, are you? The last time you said something like that to me, you had made plans to go away,” Xia He asked.

“In a way. I intend to go on a trip,” Qiao Mei said happily.

The truth was that she was not just going on a trip. Now that the problem of money had been resolved and all their expenses were taken care of, it was time for her to go and look for Xia Zhe.

There was still half a month before school started. She had to hasten if she wanted to find Xia Zhe. Once school started, she would have no chance.

“I’ll go with you. I can protect you,” Xia He said.

“If you go with me, then what about the farm? Don’t we want to make money anymore? There are so many people in the family. Are we supposed to survive by drinking plain water?” Qiao Mei asked.

After a long silence, Xia He said, “This country is so dangerous. Is it safe for you to travel alone? Ask Luo Yu to go with you so that he can protect you on the way.”

“l can carry weapons! Don’t worry, I’m not that weak. Besides, with Luo Yu gone, Luo Hui won’t be able to watch over both the children and the farm on his own. I’ll go on the trip alone,” Qiao Mei said.

“What about the children? ‘They cry when they don’t see you. Or… why don’t you bring the children along? Just bring one of them this time. You can bring the others out separately next time,” Xia He said..
