Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home
Chapter 1737

Chapter 1737: Deputy Prefect Guan’s Recovery Chapter 1737: Deputy Prefect Guan’s Recovery Editor: Henyee Translations Songshi and the others would feel more at ease with short-term workers overseeing the tasks.

As they continued developing all the barren mountains, the need for long-term workers would increase, not to mention the ongoing requirement for short-term workers.

This marked only the beginning.

Qiao Xuan’s primary aim was to generate more employment opportunities for the people of Anze Province, aligning her family’s interests with those of the local community.

From Sichuan peppercorns, star anise, pepper, medicinal herbs, to potatoes, the potential for expansion and cultivation was vast.

If the harvests proved profitable, more individuals would likely engage in planting, prompting continuous growth.

Her vision was to transform the vast Anze Province into a renowned region for spices and herbs, leveraging its unique advantages.

Given Anze Province’s sheer size, it was destined to become increasingly vibrant!

Yuezheng Xiao decided to establish a branch of the Yuezheng Family in the city, alongside three dessert shops offering a variety of fresh fruits.

Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan endorsed the plan.

Shao Yunduan entertained the idea of reaching out to the Prefect of Yuzhang to upgrade the official road between Anze Province and Yuzhang.

His vision included widening, flattening, and implementing other improvements.

However, this ambitious project required substantial investment, making it currently unfeasible.

Despite the families settling their debts due to external pressure, Anze Province still owed Qiao Xuan 620,000 taels of silver!

Shao Yunduan had managed to pay off 120,000 but still owed 500,000.

Progress on other projects would have to wait until the outstanding amount was settled.

Upon Deputy Prefect Guan’s recovery, he offered to share Lord Shao’s burden at the government office.

“I’m truly ashamed.

My body has been disappointing, and it seems luck hasn’t been on my side!

If not for these setbacks, I could have assisted you earlier.

Now that I’ve finally recovered from my injuries, you can take a well-deserved rest after working tirelessly for so long.

Leave all the miscellaneous matters to me.” “Lord, rest assured.

Having spent many years in Anze Province, I’m intimately familiar with its administrative affairs.

I guarantee flawless resolution of all matters on your behalf!” “Lord, feel free to stay away from the government office for at least half a month!” Deputy Prefect Guan confidently patted his chest, addressing Shao Yunduan with a smile.

His words carried a tone as if he had made significant sacrifices, ensuring Shao Yunduan could enjoy a peaceful break.

It almost seemed as if Shao Yunduan had taken advantage of him.

He fell short of saying, “Look at all I’ve done for you without asking for anything in return.

Let’s see if I’m treated well.” Shao Yunduan chuckled inwardly.

Did Deputy Prefect Guan think others were fools?

It was evident that if he continued pretending to be unwell, he would gain nothing and lose all his prestige.

Despite his impatience, he spoke with great pomp!

If he claimed to have fully recovered and could resume normal duties, Shao Yunduan wouldn’t bother arguing at this point.

However, Deputy Prefect Guan’s eagerness to seize power while framing it as if Shao Yunduan had taken advantage of him was quite distasteful.

“Taking care of one’s health is crucial.

Have you genuinely recovered?

If not, there’s no harm in taking a bit more time to recuperate.” “I’m not heartless.

Even if you decide to rest for another year and a half, the rightful salary will still be yours!”
