Chapter 457: Chapter 457 Cooperation

Luo Qiao looked at Stone, "Yes, Black Bean and Stepping Snow will be in your care for the next few days, along with the vegetable garden and chickens at the back. Your daily egg relies on those few chickens."

Lu Yichen frowned as he looked at the two of them and, after holding back for a while, finally spoke up, "Are you guys hiding something from me?"

Luo Qiao didn’t understand at first, but then remembered the question Stone had asked her earlier, she smiled and said, "What are you referring to?"

Lu Yichen said, "How would Stone know that you were taking the night train?"

Luo Qiao burst into laughter and replied, "You really have sharp ears. Yes, I took Stone with me to Capital City before, but we were short on time. We took the night train and returned the next evening, so I didn’t have the time to show Stone around."

Lu Yichen, hearing this, asked, "Was it when I was in Capital City?"

Luo Qiao laughed and said, "Yes, since we were pressed for time, and I didn’t know how to contact you, I couldn’t notify you. Alright, hurry up and wash your hands for dinner."

Lu Yichen expressed regret, "It was my fault. I’ll give you my grandfather’s phone number later, so you can reach me if something like this happens again."

It wasn’t until after dinner that Lu Yichen found out Luo Qiao had sold those two pots of orchids the last time she went back, and the money she got was just enough to make the down payment for leasing the mountain land. He hadn’t expected those two orchids to be so valuable.

After Lu Yichen cleaned up the kitchen, he took out a proposal from his bag, "Qiaoqiao, could you help me see if there’s anything lacking here?"

After Luo Qiao took it and saw it was about the security company he had mentioned before, she looked up at Lu Yichen, "Have you really decided on this project?"

Lu Yichen replied, "I think this project is very good. It can not only help my retired comrades-in-arms but also enable a few of my buddies to achieve something great. The country is encouraging economic development, and this industry is sure to be a promising one in the future.

I had already arranged for them to start working on it when I left Capital City last time, and I trust they can do it well. Help me see what’s missing and we can add to it."

After seriously reviewing it, Luo Qiao offered several suggestions, to which Lu Yichen said, "You really know a lot. It seems Professor Feng has indeed passed all his life’s knowledge on to you."

After Lu Yichen and Stone left, Luo Qiao also headed out, taking a ride to a market, where she found Huo Yuhao calculating his accounts at his stall. She explained her plans, and Huo Yuhao didn’t refuse.

Luo Qiao suggested that Huo Yuhao refurbish the house during this period, to fix the rooftops of the three rooms facing the road and then open the doors to the road, which would be perfect for selling fruits, vegetables, and grains.

Huo Yuhao had his mother watch the stall as he followed Luo Qiao to look at the house. The two reached a cooperation agreement: Luo Qiao would provide the house and the tricycle for transportation, while Huo Yuhao would be in charge of the business, with different arrangements when purchasing farm products from the Qingshan Village Garden.

Luo Qiao reminded Huo Yuhao that he could set up a collection point in Qingshan Village for mountain goods, eggs, and grains, and also contact other producers to buy and sell their goods.

Both being efficient, they signed the contract right after discussing it. Luo Qiao asked Huo Yuhao to wait for her there while she went home to get money. Huo Yuhao wrote a receipt, indicating the purpose of the funds.

With everything settled, Luo Qiao handed the keys to the front door of the house to Huo Yuhao and also briefed him on Yin Dong’s family situation, suggesting they could temporarily stay since they couldn’t use all the rooms in the courtyard anyway.

Huo Yuhao, who had endured his fair share of hardship, looked at the money, keys, and contract in his hand and felt deeply moved for a long time. He never expected that one day someone would trust and value him so much. He swore to himself to do his best.

After the two parted ways, Luo Qiao, free of worries, went back home, where she stewed a chicken, made a cold dish of scallions and wood ear mushrooms, slow-cooked beans with pork, and cooked rice.

When Stone returned from school and smelled the fragrance, he burst in, "Sister, did you stew a chicken? I could smell it from outside."

Luo Qiao laughed, "You have a keen nose."

The chicken soup was almost ready, so Luo Qiao scooped a small bowl for Stone who had washed his hands and was sitting next to the table, "It smells really good."

Just then, Lu Yichen also returned, carrying a bag, "What delicious food have you made?"
