Su Xueye was ecstatic just thinking about it. He had an excellent relationship with his grandparents and other family members, so it would be perfect if they could move to Su Teng Village.
Moreover, Su Xueye’s mother had always missed her family, so it would be fine if she lived in Su Teng Village. He knew everyone would be thrilled to live in the residential area.
Su Xueye could imagine how lively the area would be because of the vast land. It would not feel crowded, even if many visited. Instead, it would feel prosperous.
His eyes lit up, and he smiled brightly, saying, “Aunt Binglan, this residential area will connect us to the town if it’s this big. If we want to get from the village to Tenghe Town now, we’ll have to pass a vast open space.
“We’ll have to walk for about an hour to get to Tenghe Town. However, this large area will have plenty of buildings. It’ll be equivalent to Su Teng Village joining with Tenghe Town.”
Su Binglan had bought a vast piece of empty land, saying it was for Su Teng
Village’s benefit. Therefore, the residential area would belong to Su Teng Village. If that were the case, the village would be more prosperous than the town.
Su Binglan smiled and said, “Yes, it’ll become a main street once we build what I mentioned. We’ll also prepare the land sufficiently to make it more convenient for traversing.
“There will be several roads on the main street. These will be inner roads for traversing, and those are for carriages and oxcarts.”
Su Xueye’s eyes widened as he looked at Su Binglan admiringly. He said, “Then, everyone will be safe on the road. We won’t have to worry about the carriages knocking into the people.
“Whenever people travel, they would feel nervous because of the passing oxcarts and carriages. Sometimes, children would play around and might not react as fast as adults to avoid the oncoming carriages.
“Those who ride horses might be too fast and startle the passersby. Fewer accidents will occur since there’s an inner road for pedestrians.”
Su Xueye had not considered these things when drawing his blueprints. However, Su Binglan considered everything in detail. After all, she had lived another life in the modern world, allowing her to be more meticulous.
She continued to explain, “We should also place road signs around the residential area. For example, we’ll make one that points toward the mall, one to the residential area, one to the food street, and so on.’
Su Binglan felt energetic as she spoke about her plans. She wished she could build the residential area with a snap of her fingers.
Su Xueye was just as excited and wanted to start building as soon as possible. He looked at the blueprints and plans, asking, “Aunt Binglan, are the two rows there just for shops?”
Su Binglan nodded. “Yes, that’s the main street. There will be shops on both sides where people can start businesses. That way, passersby can get groceries and other things whenever they visit.”
Su Xueye had some understanding of the economy, saying, “Many people here want to open their own shops to make a better living. Old Madam Yangs multi-grain pancake shop should do exceptionally well.
“She can improve her life by selling pancakes daily. Even if she doesn’t have land, she can buy a house there.”
Su Binglan raised an eyebrow and asked, “You went to buy Old Madam Yangs multi-grain pancakes?”
“Yeah, I did. The pancakes were delicious!” Su Xueye exclaimed, “Old Madam Yang only opened her stall in the afternoon during the New Year celebrations. Even so, many rushed to buy her food.
“Old Madam Yangs pancakes were fragrant and crispy. They were so delicious that I had to line up whenever I went to buy some. Sometimes, I couldn’t get any because she would sell out.”
Su Binglan smiled faintly, thinking, ‘I’m glad.’
Su Xueye added, “1 think business on this street will do well because there will be more factories around. The future shopowners’ businesses will be booming before they know it.”
“The people can sell various things on that street,” Su Binglan said, “Even if people from surrounding villages don’t go shopping, they can buy daily necessities from the shopowners.
“People can shop in the mall and get food from the streets. We’ll reserve that side for a farmer’s market. The villagers can sell their vegetables and meats there.’
Su Xueye asked, “Isn’t that like Su Teng Market, Aunt Binglan?”
“Yes, more or less. However, people won’t have to wait for Su Teng Market to open if the residential area has its own farmer’s market. People can buy what they need from the residential area instead.”
Su Binglan also wanted to build a supermarket, but no such thing existed in this era. She would have to set up a supply channel to build one. She would also have to get people to stock up, set up, and even pay bills.
If she were to build a supermarket, it would have to be big enough to accommodate a variety of items. Su Binglan must consider this option more carefully before setting it in motion.
She felt she did not have enough trusted aides. She also needed to train specialized management talents. Su Binglan thought of something else and said, “We also need to build a school in the residential area.’
Su Xueye was stunned. “Another school? What about Blue Mountain
Academy?”
Su Binglan replied, “It’ll be different from Blue Mountain Academy. I plan to build a medical school. I also want to train management talents as my subordinates for the residential area.
“When they finish their studies, 1 will make them managers of certain businesses.’
As for the medical school, Su Binglan wanted to build it for Su Wenxiu. When the time came, he would train more medical talents. Then, Su Binglan would transfer the new medical talents to Hundred Herbs Hospital.
Nonetheless, she had saved up plenty of silver. During the New Year, she and
Luo Jin’an received many red packets. Su Binglan did not want to build the residential area slowly. Instead, she wanted to build everything simultaneously.
She said, “This project is massive. You and Uncle Zhengde must arrange your teams accordingly and build the residential area together. Don’t worry about the funds; hire more people to finish the project as soon as possible.”
Su Binglan drew the blueprints in great detail. The construction would be faster if Su Xueye and Su Zhengde hired more workers.
Su Xueye shared Su Binglan’s urgency, saying, “Grandpa didn’t understand me when I told him about the residential area. He only became excited when I showed him my blueprints and explained it to him.
“He said the surrounding villagers would benefit if we succeed. Of course, many people will want to move here once we complete the residential area..”
