The family was stunned when Su Binglan said that. They knew she was talking about the street outside the staff dormitories.

Besides the multi-grain pancake shop and mala hotpot restaurant, there were many vacant shops on that street.

Su Wenzhe returned to his senses and asked, “Sister, you’re opening a gourmet restaurant? Can you handle it?”

The family looked forward to the gourmet restaurant. After a busy day, people could go there to eat something delicious at night. Eating was a way to relax, especially for the Su family.

They would feel warmer and more comfortable returning home to sleep on their heated brick beds. Then, their bodies would feel even more refreshed the following day.

Su Wenxiu and Su Wenwu looked at their sister with bright eyes.

Su Binglan said, “You’ve all tasted most of the food I made. We’d be too busy if 1 opened too many gourmet restaurants. I also plan to build a shopping mall, various factories, a farmer’s market, and a college in that area.

“l won’t be the only one opening a restaurant since there are so many vacant shops there.”

The family nodded, knowing Su Binglan could do things others could not. Everyone was confident in her.

Su Binglan looked into everyone’s expectant eyes and explained smilingly, “l plan to rent those vacant shops to the villagers.”

“You are?” Su Wenzhe asked.

“Yes, we should. We can make passive income by renting those shops,” Su Binglan added.

Su Wenwu did some calculations and nodded in agreement.

‘So, there was a benefit to building that many shops. 1 never thought about it that way before.’

After learning Arabic numbers from Su Binglan, he could calculate things quickly. Just thinking about how much the family could earn made him excited.

Shen Mohen praised, “That’s amazing. Buying that land didn’t cost much, but you made it more valuable when you built all those shops and accommodations there.

“Cousin Binglan, you brought such prosperity to Su Teng Village. In that case, people will fight to rent your shops. That area will be much better than the capital.”

Although Shen Mohen was a disciple of the Legendary Medicine Valley, he was also the heir to the Shens. His surroundings had influenced him since childhood, so he had excellent judgments about business.

Su Binglan continued rolling the glutinous rice balls as she said, “Indeed, it’ll be more prosperous after 1 build the commercial street. If the commercial value is high, many will be interested in renting shops or buying houses there.’

Liu Yinyin raised her brows when she heard that. “Sister-in-law, living there will be even more convenient after you build the factories and schools.

“People can buy whatever they need from nearby shops, whether vegetables, clothes, or whatever else. There will be more job opportunities there with all the factories, not to mention the land people can use to grow crops.

Shen Qiuhua nodded, thinking it was an excellent place to live. She said,

“Honestly, I would consider living there if we didn’t live in Su Teng Village.”

Su Binglan smiled, “l don’t have to worry whether or not people will buy the houses or rent the shops there. People will want to live there because of the job opportunities and other facilities.

“When more people live there, more will want to do business, too. It’s like a domino effect. Don’t forget that I’m also building a management and medical college there.

“If parents want their children to take the imperial exams, they can go to Blue Mountain Academy.”

“Yes, of course,” Shen Mohen said, “Blue Mountain Academy is an excellent school. Princess Lan Ruobing built it, and it’s not far from here,”

Su Binglan said smilingly, “Since many students go to Blue Mountain Academy from here, we can modify a carriage or oxcart. The students can ride the carriage or oxcart together to travel back and forth to the academy.

“The parents will only need to pay a bit of monthly rent for the carts. If there are more students, they can split the rent.”

Bluntly put, Su Binglan planned to build something resembling a modern school bus. Even so, Blue Mountain Academy was not too far away, and those who plan to live in the commercial area could walk there.

After all, the commercial area would connect the town and the village. Blue Mountain Academy was on the town’s west side, beside the commercial area, making it much more convenient for traveling.

After some thought, Su Wenwu said, “People will miss out if they don’t buy or rent houses and shops in the commercial area.”

Su Binglan smiled, “l won’t sell the shops, only rent them out. Still, I’ll sell the houses. The shops will be mine to do as I see fit so that it won’t be so chaotic. 1 can decide what I want the shops to sell.”

She had her plans and arrangements for these things. If she sold the shops, the people could sell whatever they wanted. Then, people might end up selling the same things and create competitiveness.

However, she would first explain which shop should sell daily necessities and which would sell food if she only rented the shops. That way, the commercial area would be as efficient and convenient as possible for people.

For example, people could buy groceries from the farmer’s market area instead of wandering around. They could also go to the food street if they wanted to have lunch or dinner. If one only needed necessities, they could shop in places that only sold daily necessities.

Liu Yinyin smiled. “I’m sure your plans will be perfect, Sister-in-law.”

Liu Yinyin became ecstatic when she considered how many shops Su Binglan would open. The former was proud to have a sister-in-law like Su Binglan.

The family never considered renting shops in town last time. But now, they had their own shops and even factories. Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin no longer rented their haggis soup shop because they had already bought it. The young couple felt at ease now that they owned the shop..
