Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng naturally knew He Hui’s good intentions, so they smiled and explained, “Aunt Hui, since I’ve brought it up, I’ve naturally thought about these possible problems already! The reason I invited you over today is because I have some questions about raising ducks! If we raise ducks in the village, what is the most suitable quantity? Will the river water in our village contaminate the water source if we raise too many ducks?!”

Hearing Li Xiaoran’s words, He Hui and Guan Dongshan immediately understood.

He Hui had raised ducks at home for a long time, so when she heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she pondered for a moment.

“When our family raised the most ducks, we raised 160 ducks. But at that time, the smell was very strong, and the water in the stream was filled with duck fur and feces, especially in summer, making the entire village smell. Many people came to me to talk about these things, so I sold some and reduced the quantity to 100 ducks!”

When Li Xiaoran heard He Hui’s words, she calculated it.

In other words, with the village’s breeding ability, it would be fine to raise a hundred?

He Hui thought of something and suggested, “I suggest that we raise a hundred of them. Ducks are easy to feed, and they won’t fall sick often. If we nurture too many of them, they’ll become very contagious when they fall sick!”

Li Xiaoran asked, “Then what if we join forces with the surrounding villages to raise ducks?”

He Hui and Guan Dongshan were a little surprised, since they didn’t expect Li Xiaoran to want to make the scale so big.

He Hui couldn’t help but ask, “Xiaoran, are you really sure you want every village to nurture so many?”

Li Xiaoran said with a smile, “Aunt Hui, don’t worry that I won’t be able to sell them. We won’t have to worry about the sales!”

He Hui thought about Li Xiaoran’s words carefully.

“If you have a way to sell them, it won’t be a problem to raise so many!

However, I want to ask, who will own the workshop you’ll build?”

When Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng heard He Hui’s words, they pondered over it seriously.

“We just have a plan to make the people in the village rich. We haven’t thought about so many things yet,” Luo Cheng explained.

He Hui heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Luo Cheng’s words.

“Since you’ve asked for our opinion, I’ll tell you my opinion. You want to raise ducks in the surrounding villages? That’s a good idea, but I don’t suggest you guys participate. Actually, there’s no need for you guys to raise ducks yourself. You just need to build a workshop and buy ducks. As long as you buy them over the long term, there will definitely be many people willing to raise them for you guys.”

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she didn’t understand.

“Aunt Hui, why do you say that?”

He Hui voiced her thoughts, “Your intention is to lead the people in the surrounding villages to live a good life, but if you interfere in everything, will the commoners be able to earn money in the end? Why don’t you give up raising ducks? Whoever is capable will raise them. You’ll only be in charge of buying ducks! This way, you won’t have to work so hard and things will be easier.”

When Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng heard He Hui’s words, they immediately understood.

“As for the workshop you’re talking about, you guys can do it! When the time comes, you can provide some work opportunities for the people in the village. This is for the best!” Guan Dongshan, who had been silent all this while, also suggested, “You have to remember that even if vou have good intentions, vou can’t be too selfless. Otherwise, what you get in return won’t be gratitude, but resentment!”

Guan Dongshan reminded, “Mr. Luo, Xiaoran, I understand that you guys want to help the people in the village become rich. Your intentions are good, but you can’t interfere in too many things. If they want to become rich, they have to work hard themselves. You’ve already given them an opportunity. If they can’t catch it, they can only blame themselves! Don’t interfere in anything else. It’s enough for you to build a school for the village. Going overboard is as bad as not doing enough!”

When Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng heard Guan Dongshan’s words, they immediately came to a realization.

They had taken things for granted and lost their caution.

Although they had designated White Foothill City as Luo Cheng’s fief, if they wanted the commoners in the fief to live a better life, the commoners had to work hard themselves!

If they gave too much, it would have the opposite effect.

Luo Cheng understood and looked at Guan Dongshan and He Hui gratefully.

“Thank you for your reminder, Uncle Guan and Aunt Hui. Otherwise, we really would have made the wrong choice!”

When Guan Dongshan saw that Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran understood what they meant, he smiled.

“It’s good that you understand what we mean. Don’t blame us for being nosy!”

The reason Guan Dongshan and He Hui told the two of them about their life experiences was because they knew their personalities.

If it were anyone else, they wouldn’t have been willing to say it.

Because when people who weren’t familiar with these things heard these words, they wouldn’t think that they were doing this for their own good. Instead, they would think that they were jealous of them, so they were unwilling to let them get ahead.

“How can that be?! What you taught us is a very valuable experience! We couldn’t ask for more!” Li Xiaoran said with a smile, “After we’re done talking about this, we have something else to ask Guan Kang!”

When He Hui and Guan Dongshan heard Li Xiaoran’s words, their gazes landed on their son, Guan Kang.

In fact, when they heard Luo Cheng send someone to invite their family over today, He Hui and Guan Dongshan guessed that it had something to do with their son, so when they heard Li Xiaoran’s words, they weren’t surprised.

Guan Kang had been listening to everyone and didn’t express any opinions.

Seeing that everyone was talking about him, he asked, “Sister Ran, Brother Luo

Cheng, do you guys want to use my ability to benefit the people?”

Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran nodded with a smile when they heard Guan Kang’s words.

Luo Cheng said, “We have this idea, but we have to ask for your opinion first! If you’re unwilling, we won’t force you!”

Seeing that Luo Cheng was speaking frankly, Guan Kang didn’t beat around the bush either.

“Brother Luo Cheng, during the time you guys were in the capital, I’ve been trying to figure out what my abilities are like. I’ve made detailed records and summaries and done many experiments. Take a look at what my abilities are before we continue!”

As Guan Kang spoke, he took out a booklet from the bag he carried.

Guan Kang said, “These things might take an entire day to look over. We won’t disturb you guys today.. I’ll come back to look for you guys tomorrow, okay?”
