Alayna had already decided on the people who were going to do her garden. As she wanted her garden to look grander, only the system could help her.
Although she has to spend some points to get it done, for her babies and future happiness she didn’t mind at all.
She clicked on the system’s page that offered other services for points and selected gardening. Several photos of gardens were on display and she began to choose.
After ten minutes or so, she finally set her eyes on one garden that took her breath away. Describing what it looked like in layman’s terms, she couldn’t do it but one thing was for sure, she loves it.
She checked the points needed to get the system to do this for her and she couldn’t help but cuss it out aloud. At the moment, her total points were just over 600 and yet the system needed 585 points from her to do the garden.
"This is just a huge scam! How can it be so expensive?" she cried out loud as she looked at her points dwindling.
[Thank you for supporting the system, the garden construction will start immediately and finish in three working days. Please be patient and thank you for your support once more.]
Hearing these polite words from the system, she just couldn’t get angry anymore. Since the system always does amazing work, she was at ease knowing that her points weren’t going to be wasted.
She swirled around in the chair as she stretched her body after sitting for a long. She also checked the time and saw that it was around eleven and it wasn’t time for lunch yet.
This meant that there was still time for her to write up the plan she has for another project. It has been too long since she did something new. She came up with that stokvel program and everything was going well.
The institute was doing well but it was time to do something new. She had seen a lot of people who couldn’t afford to enter the lowest stokvel group as their income wasn’t just enough.
This is the reason why she had been thinking of something new and something that was going to be life-changing.
Back in the modern world, there were banks where one could go if one wanted some money. Some stokvel groups will deal with that problem and when one was really in serious trouble, they could go to loan sharks.

These were very dangerous people and they were willing to do anything to get their money back. You would borrow money from them and they will charge you high and scary interest rates. If you fail to pay back the money, they will take everything that you own and that wasn’t what one would want to see or experience.
She didn’t want to see anyone suffering and going through the same thing she saw other people do. It wasn’t everyone that can afford to get loans, with so many mortal beings working ordinary jobs as farmers, miners, woodcutters, and selling all sorts of items, they weren’t eligible to open accounts at banks.
What Alayna wanted to do was to use some of that extra money that she owns and has been keeping in her storage ring to help those that needed some help.
She alone wasn’t enough to help so many people out there but as long as she plays her part then everything was worth it. There were so many children at the institute that were so good at doing business and she had seen their potential.
Everyone at the institute was doing their best to contribute something back and this was enough for her.
Alayna wanted to start giving out some loans to those people who wanted to do some business and get them to repay it with some low interest. She may be helping but she wasn’t going to allow anyone to take advantage of her.
One mustn’t give another fish but one should teach the other to fish. She was only going to give a platform for others to find their footing, have them change their lives, and at the same time, she can also learn something from them.
She won’t be the first person to do this as she also came across a lot of loan sharks even in this world. At some point she nearly sold herself for some silver, being homeless and restless made her almost lose herself and she hated herself for that.
She wasn’t only going to introduce this system but also introduce a concept she has never heard of before in this world, cooperatives. As not everyone is cut for business, individuals can partner up together to form a group.
This group can decide what they want to do, what business they want to start, and do it as a group. She had heard of many testimonies about them and their successes, of course, there were also several cases of them failing too.
But being a coward and not willing to try was worse than trying and failing. As one could learn more from failing. Not every successful person out there just succeeded at once. Others went through so many failures but they didn’t stop trying.
They kept on trying until they succeeded and this is what set them apart from the rest. Alayna kept on typing on her computer as speedily as she can.
She only stopped when she saw that it was time for her to cook, "I will finish this later then."
She left the study and with the help of the kids, she prepared the lunch.
"Kids, tonight I will be introducing you to my staff. There are nice people and they will definitely like you. We will be cooking a lot of food later so I will need all your help, neh," Alayna informed the kids.
The kids were surprised when they heard this, they weren’t expecting that Alayna will be introducing them to others so soon.
"Really, is that okay, mommy?" Merita nervously asked.
To be honest she didn’t care about seeing other people at the moment. She didn’t know who else to trust. What if the people that come to her mommy’s shop were acquainted with those people?
She didn’t want their enemies to find them so soon. She didn’t want to bring trouble to Alayna at all and also didn’t want to leave her. Until they were strong, she wasn’t willing to step out of the forest.
But since she wanted to introduce them to the staff then it was okay.
Alayna could sense the nervousness in that tone and she stopped stirring the pot and looked at Merita.
She opened her arms and the little girl burrowed herself in her embrace, "darling, your mother is very powerful. My cultivation level might be low but I am strong as I can be. No one will do anything to you so the both of you raise your heads proudly and don’t be scared of anyone. It doesn’t matter if anyone dislikes you as long as I love you. Do you understand me?"
Neal was so touched that his eyes were now red. He understood perfectly that Alayna loves them dearly but hearing it again in a moment like this, he was so touched.
"Thank you, mommy!"
"Thank you, mother, for everything. We really appreciate it."
Alayna smiled genuinely at her kids, "um, if there is anything that worries you, just tell me. I will be there to help you."
"Sure, we will do that."
"He he he, that is my babies."
"So, mommy, tell us what they are like?" Merita curiously asked with eager eyes.
Alayna giggled happily as she listened to the kids, "sure, I will tell you all about them."
The kids enjoyed this cooking session a lot. Neal also joined in and help. Just because he was a boy, this didn’t mean that he shouldn’t enter the kitchen. As a young boy and a man, he should be able to cook something for himself. What if he ends up staying by himself at some point in the future?
She wanted self-reliant kids and not kids who only know to rely on others. She wasn’t going to raise some spoiled kids. She will definitely raise them well but not make them spoiled like her other younger sister who couldn’t even add sugar to her cup of tea.
After lunch, she left for the study again to finish what she has started before. As for cooking, they were going to do that around four in the evening after all the food has been digested.
Looking at the word document she has minimized before going to prepare lunch, she began to type more on this new project of hers. Since she was going to encourage people on starting cooperatives, she needed to inform the public about what they were and what their benefits and drawbacks of it were.
Only after letting them know about this will, she introduces about the loan lending part. She didn’t want just anyone to come and borrow money and fail to return it back in the future.
