Chapter 1299 Extra Money

Qian Duo finished his meal in a hurry and went straight into the study. He had a miserable life. Zhou Guo made a big move and dug him out from the farm where he had been buried. He was whipped and forced to work without any rest.

He worked late into the night, complaining, "So fast, not like her usual temperament at all, not afraid of making a mistake and messing it up instead."

Having said that, he still dared not relax in everything. He had to be careful and cautious in everything and not take it lightly. In this way, at least half of the mistakes could be eliminated.

But this consumes more energy. At the end of the day, he would be exhausted and his mind would be empty.

I couldn't help but think of Zhou Guo. She was so busy that the light in the study was on all night long, but she only needed to take a nap for an hour or two and then she would be full of energy again, more energetic than anyone else.

I sigh, it’s good to be young, you can recover quickly, unlike them, who feel drowsy all day long.

All his hard work paid off. When he heard that Zhou Guo was named King of Yan, one of the three great princes, his jaw almost dropped.

That's the prince!

But isn't it only the prince who is given the title of prince? Isn't it the daughter of a princess?

He read the letter over and over again, confirming it was correct. He couldn't help but laugh happily, "The boss is really amazing! She's the only one in history who has risen from a bandit leader to a prince!"

It really makes these bandits proud!

Now that the eldest boss has become a prince, no one will dare to mess with them from now on. Even the local tyrants will have to consider their own weight and whether the lives of their entire family are enough to be buried with the prince.

Like the Jinling family before, they relied on their status as local tyrants to cause the boss to suffer a great loss. From now on, such a thing should not happen again, right?

Before Zhou Guo arrived, Qian Duo had been celebrating with his men for several days. He had not yet realized that his hard days were about to begin.

……

He looked at Zhou Guo, who was talking non-stop, and said softly, "I want to go back to the manor."

Zhou Guo ignored him and continued talking about his own things. The new dynasty had just been established and there was a lot of work to be done. It was the time for their Feizhuang to expand rapidly. If they made their name known now, it would save a lot of effort in the future.

By then, backup granaries in various places can be built earlier. There is no need to worry if there is a disaster in any place. If the national treasury is in trouble, we still have them. They can make up for it and greatly ensure the stability of the people's lives.

After hearing this, Qian Duo said with a bitter face: "Can you slow down a bit? I'm just one person. No matter how capable I am, I'm also a human being. I also need to rest and eat. Big boss, you can't do this to me."

Zhou Guo glanced at him and said, "I'm still here, aren't I? What are you worried about? If I don't push you, you'll retreat back to your farm. It won't work for now. You won't be able to go back for at least ten years. Just work honestly."

Qian Duo: "...I thought that since you became the King of Yan, I could take advantage of the power of others and rest. Now, it's not as good as before. At least I don't have to work so hard."

Although he complained, he still did not give up and worked honestly.

If he didn't do it now, he believed that the boss would beat him to death with one punch. Moreover, now that she had become the King of Yan, so many people would want to curry favor with her and work for her that they could line up from the capital to the north.

Someone can replace him at any time, but that's not acceptable. He still has to live a good life, eat delicious food and drink delicious drinks, and show off his power.

Zhou Guo discovered that he was quite capable and was no worse than Baldy.

While working, Qian Duo couldn't help but think of his good old days. When he was still in the north, life was so comfortable. He just had to take care of his own farm.

Everything in Zhuangzi is ready. Zhou Guo has planned everything. He uses compost to raise crabs, fish and turtles, and raises chickens, ducks and fruit trees on the hilltops. Isn't that simple?

He was doing very well in his business. At that time, I felt very sympathetic when I saw Baldy running around outside all year round. He thought that instead of enjoying such a good life, he had to live such a wandering life. Wasn't that asking for trouble?

Now, retribution has come to him, and he has become the one who cannot rest all year round. On the other hand, the bald man next to him has been working in the escort agency for many years, and has become proficient in many things. He has also trained some people over the years and has basically figured out his own way, so he is not so busy now.

Sometimes when people pass by him, they laugh at him, saying that he was lazy in the past years and that now he knows how hard it is to work when he is busy.

I work hard to earn a lot of money. Although it feels hard, sometimes I feel a sense of accomplishment, just like the feeling of a good harvest on the farm.

Later, he actually began to like these things. Every time he solved a problem, he felt that he was very capable.

He was so busy until he was in his forties before he got married. He found a widow with children and she gave birth to two sons. Looking at his two sons, he felt that even if he died immediately, he would be content.

Sincerely thanking Zhou Guo, "Boss, I want to thank you very much. If it weren't for you, I might still be a bandit in the mountains. I can have what I have today and live a stable and prosperous life for half my life, all thanks to you!"

When he was moved, he said excitedly: "I, my son, and my grandson will all be at your service from now on!"

Zhou Guo nodded, "Okay, work for me, as long as you are willing."

Qian Duo grinned and said, "Of course I'm willing to give it up. I'm not a noble man, so why wouldn't I be willing to work for the King of Yan?"

This is the King of Yan, who has been begged for by many people but failed. He thinks he is very wise and has considered the future of his sons and grandsons. As long as they follow Zhou Guo and work hard, their future will definitely be good.
