Chapter 981: Chapter 981: 70-30 Split_1 Chapter 981: Chapter 981: 70-30 Split_1 Qiao Xiaomai heard this, blinked her eyes, and asked again, “Where exactly is this five hundred acres of land?”

“Right around here. Didn’t you and your husband buy the surrounding land before? This time I’ll pay the silver and purchase it. These farmers will now be your long-term workers. You’ll need hands to raise livestock, and this will solve their livelihood concerns.”

Yang Wenxiao had chatted with Wang Tiesheng and his wife that day and learned about Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang’s actions in buying land.

He was quite satisfied with this practice. Farming is hard work, and doesn’t make much money throughout the year. Now, Qiao Xiaomai was offering them a chance to double their income, which was good.

He genuinely hoped Bailu Town would flourish, as it was Liuli’s resting place; the busier, the better.

“Moreover, this isn’t a giveaway, these tricycles… when the time comes, you take seventy percent, and the Royal family takes thirty percent, how about that?” Yang Wenxiao added.

A seventy-thirty split.

For a hundred taels silver, Qiao Xiaomai would take seventy taels silver, and the Royal family would take thirty taels silver.

And with the Royal family backing the product, no one would dare to imitate it.

Up until now, no one had dared to copy the adult tricycle that Yang Wenxiao had come up with.

If no one dared to imitate, then it wouldn’t be a short-term deal. Once the rich market was saturated, they could lower the prices to earn the common people’s silver.

This outcome was within the range of what Qiao Xiaomai could accept. Besides, even if it wasn’t, she would have to accept it.

Yang Wenxiao had said so, who would dare refuse Yang Wenxiao?

“Then thank you very much!” Qiao Xiaomai promptly expressed her gratitude, a smile spreading across her face.

With a seventy-thirty split and knowing Yang Wenxiao’s knack for making a profit, she was sure to earn a good amount of silver this time.

This thank you, she said with heartfelt sincerity!

Yang Wenxiao also seemed quite pleased, “Make it early. Try out its effect. This…erm, let’s launch it at the New Year.”

Now, there was only a little over a month left before the New Year. Another year was about to pass by.

A tinge of reflection flashed in his eyes. He then idly fiddled with the foot pedal, pretending to say offhandedly, “Next spring is my ninetieth birthday, and at that time, Sanlang will go to the Capital City to participate in the palace examination. What a coincidence.”

Qiao Xiaomai blinked her eyes more vigorously this time and said with some uncertainty, “By then, Sanlang and I will definitely prepare a congratulatory gift for you.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Wenxiao laughed heartily, “If it’s not novel, I won’t accept it.”

Qiao Xiaomai “…”

He was indeed planning to ask for something novel!

Headache.

Where could she keep finding so many novel things!

“I will try my best… but I can’t guarantee it.” That was the only answer she could give.

Yang Wenxiao smiled, “As long as you put your heart into it, just make me feel the sincerity from you and your husband.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai let out a sigh of relief; that was more acceptable.

“Alright then, you two take your time researching.” Yang Wenxiao turned to leave.

He had said he would give Qiao Xiaomai the land, and now he needed to make that happen.

Back at the Guest House, he asked Gao Lian to take care of this, and after a moment’s thought, he also asked him to call Wang Tiesheng and his wife.

Such an action was akin to forced buying. Many farmers would surely be anxious about suddenly losing their land. If Wang Tiesheng and his wife could testify to the fairness of the transaction, the situation would be much better.

He had always placed great importance on the will of the people.

After instructing Gao Lian, Yang Hao had finished writing a reply to Yang Ye and ordered someone to send it. He inquired when Yang Wenxiao would return to the Capital.

According to the original plan, it was time to start the journey back.

With a little over a month left before the New Year, there would be a plethora of tasks before the year’s end, and he needed to return to assist Emperor Yongan with some of them.

“You go back first. I’ll leave after the New Year,” said Yang Wenxiao.

He had stayed in the Capital City for over a decade previously, and now that he had found a more comfortable place outside, he was reluctant to return to the empty Da’an Palace.
