Chapter 616: The Market Expands Again
"A female bandit?" An Hao’s eyebrows shot up as she reached out and grabbed An Ping’s ear, "Say that again for me?"
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! You really are like a female bandit!" An Ping’s features squeezed together in pain.
"Enough." An Hao let go and glared at him, "When no one’s around, you can joke around with me, but when there are so many people, it’s best not to call me a female bandit."
After being scolded, An Ping became more honest: "I got it, sis! Please help me out! I was just trying to recruit a few helpers for our family’s vegetable garden. Look at this bunch of old women, they’re about to eat me alive."
"How do you want me to help you?" An Hao smiled, "It seems my little brother is doing quite well, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many people coming to our door, right?"
Looking at the situation, it seemed like people from ten miles around had shown up, hadn’t they?
An Ping pulled An Hao into the back room: "Sis, our business is doing really well now, and the villagers are pretty jealous. Sometimes when folks walk by, they all want to get some vegetables from the garden. That’s all fine, but the key issue is that Dad and I have planted so much land, we simply can’t keep up. We work ourselves to death every day. The market’s pretty stable now, and our scale of planting is a bit small. I was thinking, since we have grown bigger, we wouldn’t mind growing even more. I was planning to hire a few people to help with the fields and then pay them a salary."
An Hao thought An Ping’s idea was good, and she raised both hands in agreement: "That’s no problem. You can even expand your market further. For example, supply to the clothing factory? Or even the military."
"The military? I don’t even dare to think about that," An Ping said excitedly. If they really could supply vegetables to the military, that would mean big earnings.
