Fei Qinfan''s eyes lit up when he heard Su Wan say that he could take a look at the gift that she had prepared for Eunuch Xi tomorrow. In his head, he knew that the sooner the gift was prepared the sooner he would be able to send it to Eunuch Xi and take his revenge on the Su family who caused him to be humiliated.


    What was more Su Yiqian actually came up with such a ruthless n of killing two children who were not even six years old, this made himpletely disgusted by that woman and her family. It was better for such a family to be kicked out of the Imperial City rather than them sitting in high positions in the imperial pce.


    He was not the only one who was excited Su Wan was just as equally excited. She wanted to deal with the Su family as soon as possible, or at least give them a taste of their own medicine. Who asked them to nurture such a ruthless woman?


    Su Wan was very much aware of the fact that what Su Yiqian was doing, her family knew about her every move but they still turned a blind eye because she was not harming their interests.


    Does that mean that as long as they were safe, Su Yiqian could do anything that she wanted? Haha. Fat chance. Su Wan would teach the Su couple what they should have learned ages ago when their children were born but they were foolish and did not learn it at the right time.


    Never mind, she would teach them an important lesson.That they should have controlled their children better and scolded them when they made a mistake.


    Su Wan asked the maids to prepare dinner while following Lin Yan''s orders, she had gone out and enjoyed a lot of excitement but now she was getting a bit hungry as she only drank tea and ate a few snacks when she was at the tea house.


    When the maids were cooking dinner, Su Wan was about to head back to her room to take a rest but her ns were disrupted when she saw that Pei Huai hade looking for her.


    " Master Pei?" She greeted the man with a polite voice, before looking at his expression carefully. She had heard from Lord Yun that this man was married to the daughter of the Lai family and because of his connection to the Lai family, Madam Pei had acted quite arrogantly.


    In fact, it would not be wrong to say that Madam Pei had actually treated the county magistrate''s office as her house''s backyard. It was only when Su Wan took over the office that she stoppeding to that building and holding herself back as she knew that Su Wan would not entertain her.


    However, that did not change the fact that Pei Huai was her husband and he had often turned a blind eye to everything that Madam Pei did in the past.


    " Are you here to ask for an exnation or something of the sort?" She asked with a raise of her brow as she knew that Pei Huai wouldn''t havee here for no reason. Readtest stories on m_v-l''e|-NovelBin


    But to her surprise, Pei Huai shook his head and then said lightly, " I am not interested in asking for an exnation. I only came here because I wanted to ask you if your snack street can really bring twice the amount of tax whenpared tost year."


    Pei Huai was only concerned about this one thing. He did not want to choose the wrong side or more like he wanted to make sure that it was worth it. If Su Wan cannot do what she imed then he does not think it was worth putting his peace on the line.


    Su Wan was quite surprised by his question but she did not show it on her face. She had already checked the tax that the Big Ocean City collected and she was already aware of the fact that it was really lower whenpared to the others.


    As there were more pir industries, no sustainable workshops and no suitable farming which made it impossible for the people to pay high taxes.


    " Like I said it''s not difficult, the most important thing is to drive the economy and make use of the resources of our own city first before anyone else. I have calcted there are more than six hundred households in this city after deducting the officials. And each household does not even have a single stabilized bread earner in the family, which is why they cannot pay taxes.


    All we need to do is to make sure that we generate at least four hundred jobs to stabilize the tax rate before taking care of the remaining two hundred households who only know how to farm."


    " So are you saying that you have already created four hundred jobs?" He questioned before he opened his mouth once more and added, " What about the two hundred households, would they not be dissatisfied?"


    " You can check the rate of employment at the office and as for the remaining two hundred households? It''s not that I am refusing to hand them jobs but because they are indeed unskilled when ites to Snack Street. However you do not need to worry," she added when she saw that Pei Huai was frowning. " I have already arranged a source of ie for them."


    " What source?" Pei Huai asked, if there were no jobs then how would those families earn?


    " Of course by raising chickens, pigs, ducks and fish," replied Su Wan with an eye roll. " Like I said, if we want to raise the living conditions of the people in this city then we need to make sure that we use as many resources avable in our own city rather than the other cities."


    " If we open a snack street then surely the consumption of such things will get higher and if the farmers raise these livestock properly and without any sneaky activities then I have no problem in buying livestock from them."


    The consumption would make up the taxes from the farmers'' side.


    She then paused and added, " And you don''t need to worry. I have alreadye up with a way to deal with the farming situation. Though it will be difficult to grow vegetables for now, I am sure sooner orter I can make use of the wastnd by turning them into fertile. It''s just that it will take some time."


    Pei Huai nodded slightly, if this was the case then it was indeed worth going against his wife. For the people of the Big Ocean City, he would willing to take a gamble.


    He had grown up in this city and knew that the people here were not afraid of suffering and pain. As long as they could earn a decent sum of money, they were willing to do anything.


    However, at the same time, he was quite curious about Su Wan''s ims of turning the barrennd into fertile. Pei Huai raised his head and then looked at Su Wan before saying, " Are you sure that you can turn the barrennds into farms?"


    He understood that Su Wan was indeed intelligent when it came to creating infrastructure. He had seen her using all her enthusiasm and energy on the snack street and she had not even taken a look at the wastnds that she had purchased.


    It wasn''t that Pei Huai doubted Su Wan, it was just that he was getting ufortable while watching the people of the Big Ocean City getting sicker and weaker with each passing day while people like the Lai family were getting better and better with each passing day.


    He did not want much from Su Wan, he just wanted to make sure that the people of Big Ocean City would have enough to eat.


    Su Wan pursed her lips after hearing his question before she nodded as the innumerable amount of thoughts finally came to a rest in her head. She looked at Pei Huai and replied, " I have already exined it to you, we are first going to start with soilless vegetable farming.Once the farmers''s ie is settled we will start with the other crops."


    Pig manure and chicken waste could nourish thend and she would try to make use of her experience toe up with a n to make a fertilizer. As she would require it sooner orter.


    She then looked at Pei Huai and asked, " Is there anything else that Master Pei wants to confirm with me?"


    Pei Huai shook his head. He replied, " No this is enough."


    He could see that Su Wan was indeed a woman with a vision. There was no problem in following her, at least going against his wife and creating strife in their lives was worth following Su Wan''s lead.
