Chapter 439: Chapter 439 It Seems This is Also an Opportunity

It seems this is also a stroke of luck; those two potted plants she nourished with her Special Ability for so long, if placed in the bedroom, would greatly benefit the owner’s health over time.

After resting for a day in Ji City, Luo Qiao returned to Qingshan Village, paid 50% of the contract fee, and signed the contract.

Then she left a thousand yuan, entrusting village cadres to hire people to clear the Thorn Forest, offering five yuan per mu of land, but it had to be cleaned up properly, with all roots and such completely cleared, and the brushwood collected belonged to the locals.

Once everything was arranged, Luo Qiao returned to the city. When she got home, she saw that Lu Yichen had also come back, and the two dogs she had picked out were in the yard as well.

Luo Qiao smiled and asked, "What time did you get here?"

Lu Yichen replied, "I came back in the afternoon. I went to the bureau to submit the documents first, then came over."

Luo Qiao crouched down and teased the two little guys, naming the pure black one Black Bean and the one with white paws Stepping Snow.

These past few days in the Capital City, Lu Yichen had been busy too. After handing over the documents and taking care of official business, he just waited for the results.

He also visited the transport team he had invested in with some buddies. The fleet now had ten vehicles, two of which were invested by Lu Yichen. This time he managed to finalize all the paperwork.

These two vehicles had nearly depleted his funds, and he thought that if he were to do anything else, he might have to dip into the things in his safe, which his grandmother had left for him.

The reason she didn’t leave it to his uncle was that they had no children, and the old lady was afraid her daughter-in-law would take everything away. Anyway, the couple both had jobs and were well off, so she wasn’t worried about her son.

Before the old lady passed away, she had made it clear to the Lu family that Lu Yichen would inherit the Gu family legacy, so she divvied up her belongings among several grandchildren—Lu Yixuan, Lu Yiting, and her son Gu Kaixinrong got one portion each, and the rest was all left to her second grandson, Lu Yichen.

The fleet was already generating revenue and doing well. During his visit to the Capital, Lu Yichen contacted several retired soldiers he had gotten along with, most of whom did not have stable jobs.

Lu Yichen provided them with a house and encouraged them to reach out to their retired military friends to start a security firm, to see if they’d be willing to come over.

By the time he left the Capital, the firm had already been registered. This time, Lu Yichen took an 80% share, and the rest was distributed among those men according to investment and ability because without rules, there would be no standards.

Once things were settled and the results from the examination were out, he made a trip back to the Lu family to check in on his relatives, mainly to bring some food for his nephew and niece, since his sister-in-law had really treated him and Yiting quite well.

When he left, his father Lu Xinyi stood at the second-floor window, watching him until he was out of sight before withdrawing his gaze, hoping to find evidence soon to bring Luo Ziming’s backers to justice and avenge his wife, Gu Taoran.

After Luo Qiao finished playing with the puppies, she then said, "From tonight on, I’ll start treating your leg."

Lu Yichen looked at the confident girl, "Okay, is there anything I need to prepare?"

As Luo Qiao prepared food for the dogs, she replied, "No need, I’ve got everything ready."

In the evening, she made porridge, cooked pancakes, and prepared pickled vegetables and pork stew with glass noodles, all delicious.

In Qingshan Village, Zhao Jianing caught a fever after getting out of the river and had been sick for several days, nearly delirious. Zhao Xiaoxing chided her for looking for trouble when there was none, and for acting smug when she got a bargain; now she was comfortable.

Zhao Pulin hadn’t dared to go out these past few days; he really had no face after Luo Qiao scolded him. He truly hadn’t expected his daughter to boast to Luo Qiao about their stupidity.

And now, as a result of getting kicked into the river, he couldn’t even go to Luo Qiao to seek justice. After all, it was his own unnecessary provocation. Now the villagers looked down on them even more.

Fortunately, a call came saying that someone would be coming to Ji City to handle some affairs and could swing by to pick her up.

Zhao Pulin warned Zhao Jianing to keep quiet these few days and not stir up any more trouble, or else he wouldn’t care for her anymore.

When Zhao Jianing found out that her foster mother had called, her excitement made her feel a lot better. She had heard that Luo Qiao had contracted the land at the foot of Daqing Mountain, the Thorn Forest, and was hiring people to clear it. She scorned in her heart, "Why bother with this hassle when life could be easy?"

Thinking of the contract which demanded one thousand five hundred yuan a year, and Luo Qiao had already paid half, she assumed the money must have come from the Capital and felt pained at the thought.

She planned to discuss this with her foster mother when they met, regarding the absurdity of spending so much to contract the Thorn Forest, which was like throwing money into water. She wondered how Luo Qiao would ask for money from home in the future.

But then, she dismissed the idea—how could her family have given Luo Qiao so much money?

She knew that most of her foster father’s money had gone to her grandparents to cover her useless brothers’ medical expenses. So where did Luo Qiao get all that money?
