Yang Chengrong handed the gifts to Madam Liu Luo. It wasn't much, but the Liu family was very touched.

After a simple washing up, Yang Mengchen got straight to the point, "Grandpa and Grandma, we have come this time to discuss with you about constructing the bean product factory."

A few days ago, she had asked her three maternal grandparents to purchase a sizable piece of land in their respective villages to build the factory.

"Isn't that area still unfinished?" Old Master Liu asked, puzzled.

"I have arranged everything," Yang Mengchen said with a smile. "Prince Chen has just sent dozens of craftsmen over, and we can have them start on the bean product factory, and then continue on to build a meat product factory and a pastry factory."

The Liu family was delighted to hear this.

Yang Mengchen continued, "Tomorrow I will have the craftsmen bring over all the materials, and I'll leave the construction of the factory in your hands, Grandpa. You can hire some diligent and trustworthy people from the village to be laborers, with a daily wage of thirty wen money."

"Don't worry, Jiujiu. We know well the nature of the village people; we won't hire those who are dishonest and sly," Old Master Liu said.

"With Grandpa overseeing, I naturally feel at ease," Yang Mengchen said with a smile. "If anyone causes trouble, let Mi Mingfu, the one in charge of construction, deal with it. He is Prince Chen's man. If people come asking about job opportunities, you can tell them to wait until the factory is built and then we will hire from the village."

Old Master Liu nodded, indicating that he had taken note.

Yang Mengchen further detailed some precautions to Old Master Liu when suddenly, a voice came from outside the courtyard, "Is the honorable Dafu (Old Master Liu's formal name) at home?"

Old Master Liu hurriedly got up and went outside, with Yang Mengchen and others following behind. It turned out to be the village chief and Lizheng from Stone Village, and quite a few villagers had gathered outside, likely the work of the big-mouthed Madam Liu Gong.

"Village chief, Lizheng, what brings you here? Please come inside and sit," Old Master Liu invited warmly, though he had an idea what this was about.

"We've come looking for Ninth Sister Yang," the village chief and Lizheng both seemed somewhat embarrassed. The village chief affectionately said to Yang Mengchen, who stood by, "Jiujiu has grown even more charming and beautiful over the past two years, do you still remember Grandpa Dong and Grandpa Han?"

Yang Mengchen smiled and nodded, "Of course, I remember. Hello, Grandpa Dong, hello, Grandpa Han. Let's talk more inside."

The original owner hadn't visited Stone Village often, but these two elders had been kind to her.

"Very good, very good." Seeing that Yang Mengchen was just like before, the village chief and Lizheng's hanging hearts settled. After all, they had come with a request for Yang Mengchen.

The group went back inside and took their seats.

Seeing the somewhat uneasy expressions of the village chief and Lizheng, Yang Mengchen smiled and didn't hurry them.

After a moment of hesitation, the village chief spoke the truth, "Jiujiu, we wanted to ask if people from our village can come work at your family's factory?"

On the day the Yang family's factory opened, they had gone to see it too. With high wages and potential bonuses for good work, as heard from the people of Yangliu village, they wanted to ask Ninth Sister Yang if villagers could also work there, but felt hesitant.

"Of course, they can, but they must pass an assessment to stay on," she said.

Seeing the two men visibly relax, Yang Mengchen slowly continued, "I was just telling Grandpa Liu that Prince Chen is planning to build a factory in Stone Village. I have persuaded the prince to hire some laborers from the village to assist the craftsmen he will send, and furthermore, after the factory is completed, we will hire more workers from the village;

But let me be clear upfront, those who come to work must be honest and hard-working, and they will also have to sign a contract with the factory. If anyone violates the factory rules, they will be dealt with according to the regulations, as, after all, this is Prince Chen's property;

Grandpa Dong and Grandpa Han, please let the people in the village know that if they want to work as laborers, they can come to register tomorrow at noon. As for hiring workers, we'll discuss that once the factory is finished."
