Sweet Dreams in Famine Years: The System Leads to a Brilliant Life

After Zhang Laoer figured it out, he couldn't wait to put it into practice.

Zhang Laosan stopped him and said, "Second brother, there is no rush now. She just left today. Let's go to the city gate to guard it tomorrow."

When Zhang Laoer heard this, he nodded in agreement.

"Yes, you are right. We will wait at the city gate tomorrow."

Afterwards, the two brothers discussed how to get some food.

They hadn't eaten for two days. Before, when they were in Qingzhen City, they sold Zhang Xiaohua to a brothel and the two brothers had some money in their hands.

They then went on to live a life of debauchery and only went back to look for their wives and children after they had spent all their money.

But what they didn't expect was that their daughter-in-law had already run away with the children without a trace.

Finally, the two brothers were kicked out of the team by the people of Zhangjia Village because of their petty theft. They had no choice but to beg all the way to Jinzhou City.

However, the two brothers were also glad to have come to Jinzhou City, otherwise they would not have met Zeng Zhengen.

Although they don't know which village Zeng Zhengen has settled in now, they believe that with their abilities they will be able to find the village where Zeng Zhengen has settled sooner or later.

"Third brother, why don't we go to the shop we bought a few days ago and get two steamed buns to eat!" Zhang Laoer suggested.

They hadn't eaten for several days and were already rumbling with hunger.

Zhang Laosan hesitated for a long time before saying, "But we were discovered when we took the steamed buns last time. It would be inappropriate to go again today!"

Zhang Laoer glanced at him coldly, "It's been a few days, the owner of the shop must have forgotten what we look like."

Finally, Zhang Laosan was persuaded and immediately decided to go to the same store to get the steamed buns.

Zhang Laoer and Zhang Laosan sneaked into the shop that sold steamed buns. The shopkeepers were an elderly couple.

At this moment, there were several people buying steamed buns in the shop. Zhang Laosan quietly came to the back of the shop, stole to the stove, and then quietly stretched out his claws.

However, before he could touch the steamed bun, his hands were grabbed by someone.

"Caught a thief."

A cry of surprise was heard, and Zhang Laosan was so frightened that he hurriedly tried to pull his hand back, but the man held on very tightly and no matter how hard Zhang Laosan tried, he couldn't get rid of it.

Zhang Laosan looked at Zhang Laoer who was not far away, hoping that Zhang Laoer could come over to help. However, Zhang Laoer had already left alone after seeing Zhang Laosan being caught.

In the end, Zhang Laosan was caught stealing, beaten up, and then sent to the government.

After arriving at the yamen, Zhang Laosan was beaten with thirty sticks for the crime of theft and was sentenced to three years in prison.

After Zhang Laosan was arrested, Zhang Laoer was almost scared out of his wits, let alone saving Zhang Laosan.

However, he did not forget what Zhang Laosan had said before. The next morning, Zhang Laosan arrived at the city gate early and waited. As long as he could wait for Zeng Zhengen to come, he would have a chance to get the silver.

Zeng Zhengen on the other side had no idea that someone in the city was already plotting against her.

After leaving Jinzhou City, Zeng Zhengen went straight to Fulai Village.

At this time, Fulai Village was extremely lively, and all the villagers of Fulai Village gathered at the door of Village Chief Chen's house.

"Village Chief, why should we all have to clean up the mess that Wang Zhang caused?"

"That's right! We are all having a hard time, why should we pay her family compensation for food?"

"Anyway, my family doesn't have any extra food, so we definitely won't give out any."

A group of villagers gathered around Chen Lizheng's house and talked about the matter.

Village chief Chen did not expect the villagers' reaction to be so intense.

Village Chief Chen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and continued to persuade the villagers as he looked at them.

"We have been neighbors in the same village for so long. Isn't it normal for us to help each other?"

However, the villagers did not appreciate Village Chief Chen's advice at all.

"Village chief, don't try to fool us with such words. It was not us who asked Wang Zhang to pull up the crops planted by the new villagers."

"That's right. It was Wang Zhang who was so greedy. Why should she ask us to help her pay for the food?"

The villagers became more and more angry as they spoke, and finally Village Chief Chen had no choice but to temporarily promise not to ask everyone to help collect food. Then everyone dispersed from the headman's house.

As soon as Zeng Zhengen arrived in the village, he saw the villagers dispersing from the village chief Chen's house. After seeing Zeng Zhengen, some villagers took the initiative to come forward and greet him.

"Ms. Zeng, you just came back from the city!"

Zeng Zhengen did not have a very good impression of the original villagers of Fulai Village and had no intention of getting too close to them. But now that these villagers had taken the initiative to greet her, Zeng Zhengen naturally could not ignore them.

So after the villagers greeted her, Zeng Zhengen also nodded slightly to them.

After briefly greeting the villagers, Zeng Zhengen walked straight towards his home across the street.

After returning home and seeing the three kids, Zeng Zhengen went to discuss things with Pan Yang.

Now that her skin care products have been developed, the next step is to prepare the raw materials.

Although there is a natural medicinal field on Lantau Island, if the demand for skin care products increases in the future, this field will naturally not be enough.

Therefore, Zeng Zhengen planned to mobilize the villagers to grow some medicinal herbs. When the herbs were mature, she would purchase them from the villagers. This would not only solve her raw material problem, but also allow the villagers to earn some extra income.

To take a step back, even if her skin care products don't sell well, the villagers will not lose money by growing medicinal herbs, as they can also sell them in pharmacies in the city.

So the villagers will not suffer any loss no matter what.

Pan Yang is worried at the moment. The villagers have settled here for nearly two months, but apart from planting some potatoes before, they have not harvested anything else.

It would be fine if the villagers had some spare money, but if they didn't, it would be impossible for them to survive until next autumn harvest with just potatoes.

Besides, this land was only reclaimed this year. Even if it is the first year of growing crops, it is estimated that not much grain will be harvested.

Just when Pan Yang was feeling worried, Zeng Zhengen came over and told him that she wanted to get the villagers to grow medicinal herbs.

After hearing what Zeng Zhengen said, Pan Yang immediately stood up from his stool excitedly.

"Girl Zeng, you are really a lucky star for all of us!"

Just when he was still worried about the villagers, the solution that Zeng Yatou came up with was like timely relief!

Zeng Zhengen felt a little embarrassed for a moment after being praised by Pan Yang.

"Uncle Pan, we all come from the same village, we should help each other."
