"Dad, how much does it cost to lease the back mountain? I want to lease it." Xu Ying went to Mr. Xu and asked.
Her rural tourism, her bed and breakfast, her orchard, her breeding farm—they all needed to get started since these would be her livelihood in retirement.
Seeing his daughter so determined to lease the back mountain, Mr. Xu said with some difficulty, "I need to discuss this with the people in our village first.
So, no one gets jealous and accuses me of not informing them once you've leased it."
"Okay," Xu Ying readily agreed, considering her father was the head of the village and any slight mistake could easily be blown out of proportion.
Her salary hadn't come through yet; she could pick it up later and then lease the back mountain.
"I'll go back to the county then. I probably won't return tonight and will stay at the factory, coming back tomorrow," Xu Ying informed her parents before heading to the county.
