Chapter 1062

Serenity watched her brothers-in-law bickering and felt envious. The brothers and uncles of the York

family were harmonious, unlike the Hunt family where everyone was trying to plot against another.

“Elisa, what did you say you wanted to invest in?”

Serenity remembered about the investment and asked Elisa about it while eating the barbecue seafood

platter her man specially prepared for her.

Jasmine also pricked her ears to listen.

She also felt some pressure now because of Josh. When she saw how her best friend was trying so

hard to improve herself in order to shorten the gap between Zachary and her, Jasmine did not want to

stand idly by anymore.

“All the industries are saturated now, so it’s hard for us to compete with others. When I accompanied

you back to your hometown yesterday, I saw the fields in your village were basically deserted.”

Serenity nodded. “Many of them are abandoned. The young people leave the village to work, so only

the elderly and children are left at home. However, they can’t do any work, so the fields end up that

way”

Her family’s fields which she had seen from afar were also left aside.

Well, her relatives in the village were considered rich, so they could live a better life than everyone else

without needing to farm.

“I was thinking, how about we arrange for a person to rent all the barren fields there, and then plant

grass and vegetables? Of course, we don’t have to manage it ourselves. We’ll hire someone to take

care of it instead. I’m afraid your relatives will sabotage the fields if we show up

“If we succeed in planting them, we won’t have to worry about the market. Villa areas and urban

greening need grass, which is what we’ll be planting specifically. We can also plant vegetables and

fruits.

“Stone Group and York Corporation have many hotels under their banner, and they need a large

number of fruits and vegetables every day. Of course, our goal is to sell to other hotels. We’re not trying

to earn. money from our own families.

“School cafeterias, large factory canteens, and the likes also need a large number of fruits and

vegetables every day. Although the competition in this field is also very fierce, I think we’ll have a slight

advantage over others.

I saw a lot of deserted fields along the road you took to your hometown. I believe the villagers will be

more than happy to rent the fields to us. Earning some income from the rent is better than leaving them

untouched.”

Serenity laughed. “I’m from the countryside, but I never thought of using the fields in the village to make

money. You’re good at thinking outside the box, Elisa. There are too few people still farming in the

village, mainly because the fields are scattered, and each family only has one or two acres of land.

They only harvest just enough to feed their own families, so they can’t earn much money ”

Serenity thought Elisa would open a store selling luxury goods, start a beauty salon, or something

along those lines. She did not expect Elisa to aim at the barren fields in the countryside.

Elisa continued, I’ve made some calculations and think that this investment is profitable. We won’t go

that far We’ll just plant grass, fruits, and vegetables on the fields we contract in Wiltspoon’s

countryside. so we’ll save a little on transportation costs. We won’t profit much if we ship between

borders due to the larger costs

I don’t think it’s necessary to worry about marketing as long as our quality is good. If you think the

prospects are good, we can start working. I’ll draft a plan and calculate the cost of the various aspects

we need to invest in. I’ll ask Clive’s secretary to handle the issue of renting the fields since no one in

your hometown knows him.”

Serenity said, “Go to the village chief. He will consult the opinions of the villagers and then sign the

contract.”

Elisa nodded.

Liberty interjected, “My breakfast diner also needs fruits and vegetables every day. If you guys

succeed, I’ll sign a long-term partnership with you.”

She had just started her own business, but she was ambitious and hoped to eventually open a large

restaurant. When her business grew, her supply of ingredients would increase as well.

Elisa smiled. “Thank you for your support, Liberty, but I prefer to earn other people’s money. Earning

money from one’s own family is only something a person would do when they’re at the end of their

rope.”

If a person did business with their own family, they would be called heartless if the prices were high. If

the prices were low, they would end up losing money instead. Either way, it was a lose-lose situation.
