Chapter 126: Transition

Guan Chibei looked for Father Guan to discuss. He wanted to dig a pond in the backyard. It did not have to be very big as it was meant to temporarily rear fish that had been caught.

If their family was going to do business in the future, they should always have fish. It would be more convenient to have a place to raise them.

A pond was definitely bigger than a water vat and could raise more fish. He could fish again after a while. Furthermore, it was about to enter winter. After the river froze in the cold weather and there was a pond at home, it would be harder for the fish supply to be cut off.

The water in the mountains was clear and unpolluted. As fish meat was fresh and delicious, it was sold the best at the stall. Father Guan pondered for a moment and agreed.

However, Father Guan suggested, “Dig the pond by the kitchen.”

That was because, in winter, the pond in the house would be frozen as well. Father Guan, who was good at various life skills, started to think of ways to maintain the water in the pond.

In the end, the two of them thought of a solution. They decided to build a shed for the pond using an oilcloth to block out the cold wind. This way, the temperature would be much more suitable. Then, the pond would be built under the kitchen window. After building a shed, they could open the kitchen window.

During winter, hot water had to be boiled at home. The kitchen would keep the fire going so that heat could be transmitted from the window into the shed that led out to the pond.

That way, the pond should not be frozen.

After thinking about it, they felt that it was feasible. Hence, they waited for Mother Rong and the rest to come back at night and told the whole family. Everyone discussed this matter and took action.

After that, it was Father Guan’s turn to go to the docks. Eldest Brother Guan, who was the strongest among them, stayed behind to dig the pond with Guan Chibei.

After two days of digging, the pond was dug out. It was indeed not big. It was approximately two meters in diameter. It was a shallow pond.

After setting up the stall for two to three days, they had already earned back the capital Guan Chibei had given them.

The Guan family was very excited because, after that, it would be pure profits.

Mother Rong was full of motivation. She set off even earlier in the morning and had already started moving before the sun rose.

Ye Lulu was in charge of counting money every day. When they earned more money from doing business, she mentioned to Guan Chibei about building a wall at home.

After all, there was no wall around the Guan family’s courtyard. The entire Guan family’s courtyard was wide open and anyone in the village could enter as they pleased. It was indeed not safe.

The incident with Tie Wa was a warning.

Furthermore, the Guan family was doing business now. There were many things to do at the stall. For example, before going to the docks, they had to prepare ingredients. Their family had dug a pond to rear fish and also expanded the chicken pen to rear more chickens. They also had to build a wall to prevent others from tampering.

Mother Rong and the rest also pondered over it. In the end, they decided to build a wall.

They were just waiting to do business for a while longer first.

After the babies were one month old, more people in the village and even outside the village heard about the Guan family’s three children’s beauty and exquisiteness.

In farming families, few children were as fair as jade.

Ordinary villagers would discuss more when they had the time. Some people who were scheming started to think of some vicious ideas.

Lai Han was a villager from a small and scattered village outside Yunwu Village. He usually went to Yunwu Village to know a few families. He also often went to the city to do some odd jobs to supplement his family’s income. He was like a fish in water.

He heard about the outstanding looks of the Guan family’s babies and came up with an idea. He called over a few men he was familiar with. There were scums from the village and also gangsters from the city. They often colluded with Lai Han.
