Lin Jinyue knows how to use provocation.

Xie Hong immediately became angry and said, "What did you say? It's just 100,000 taels of silver. 100,000 taels is nothing to our Xie family. I won't use such a despicable method to slander you."

Deputy General Gao also said: "Yes, it's all Chen Dawei's nonsense, I'll tear his mouth off!"

The two of them sang in unison and simply fooled the girl.

Looking at their guilty expressions, Lin Jinyue could guess that he didn't want to interfere with the secret manufacture of weapons, but clearly wanted to shirk his responsibility.

Lin Jinyue saw through it but didn't say it out loud.

After all, the benefits are tangible, and she really doesn't dare let anyone know that she is researching crossbows. What if she is accused of rebellion? Will they still be able to live a peaceful life?

This guy just got away with it.

Originally, Lin Shucheng wanted to invite Gu Shao and the others to have hotpot together, but after such a commotion, Gu Shao didn't want to stay any longer.

Lin Jinyue calculated the time, fearing that Xie Hong would have diarrhea here and affect their mood for eating hotpot. She wished they would leave quickly, as they would have plenty of time to eat hotpot later.

Gu Shao and his friends left quickly, each holding a handful of grilled skewers, including vegetable and meat skewers.

Although reheating it after it has cooled will affect the taste, it is much better than the things made in ancient times that lacked seasoning.

There were ten people on the trip, not too many, and the distance was not too far, and they could arrive in an hour, so they only brought a small boat over.

They didn't even think about the problem of excretion.

It's not kidney deficiency, how could he not be able to hold it in for an hour?

Can……

Xie Hong didn't expect that he suddenly felt a cramp in his abdomen and could no longer bear it.

Gu Shao looked at him puzzledly: "What's wrong with you?"

Xie Hong's face turned red and he was speechless.

He was now exerting all his strength to hold back from pooping on the boat.

Every minute and every second was torture for him.

Xie Hong would ask his subordinates every ten seconds or so how long it would take.

Finally, he couldn't hold it in anymore.

When they saw a jungle, they stopped the boat.

As soon as the boat docked, he rushed out and ran into the woods to quickly solve the big problem of his life.

The worst thing was that he was bitten on the butt by a snake.

Not a venomous snake though.

It's been a really unlucky day.

Xie Hong gritted his teeth, thinking that Lin Jinyue must be the one who can defeat him.

What’s even more infuriating is that he walked to the side of the boat with his last breath, and said weakly: “There must be something wrong with the kebab they made!”

Dongyang now sided with Lin Shucheng's family, and said dissatisfiedly: "How could it be, my young master has a delicate stomach, but he hasn't gotten sick from eating so much..."

Xie Hong took a deep breath, "Then why would I...would I..."

Gu Shao: "You must be in a bad mood today. The doctor has already told you to relax."

Dongyang was still muttering: "Could it be that General Xie is worried about the 100,000 taels of silver?"

Xie Hong heard every word clearly, glared at Dongyang through gritted teeth, "I didn't! If you admit defeat, I will give it to you."

Xie Hong is a person who cares about his reputation and cannot stand provocation.

Lin Jinyue and Dongyang took turns to provoke him. It was said that he was squatting on the toilet, having diarrhea while asking the servant to count the money and collect the 100,000 taels to buy land for Lin Jinyue and others.

*

Yunhe Village.

Lin Jinyue looked at the vast expanses of land on the other side of the lake and felt very satisfied.

Although it is still a forest, at least the terrain is flat and can be cultivated after a little clearing.

Nowadays, the land is divided based on the number of people, and each family only gets a few plots of mountain land, which is not convenient for cultivation.

Now that we have the land and there is a lake next to it, we can make full use of the lake water.

Lin Youcai looked at the land and felt worried: "Er Ya, this land is forest land, it's not easy to grow crops."

Lin Jinyue was surprised: "Why is it difficult to farm? It's just that it's a bit hard to cultivate the land. But we have money now. Now a cow costs thirty taels of silver, we can buy ten cows back."

Lin Youcai: "No, don't you want to leave some money?"

Lin Jinyue answered confidently: "No."

Then she explained: "We can make money, and now the most important thing is to grow the land."

She is anxious to upgrade her farm.

Upgrade quickly and get any of potatoes, sweet potatoes, or corn, and you will never have to worry about famine again.

Lin Fugui and the others laughed bitterly: "We have to reclaim all these more than 10,000 acres of land, right?"

After hearing these words, Lin Youcai was so angry that he hit him on the head with his cane.

Lin Fugui is already in his thirties and almost forty, yet he is being chased by his father.

Lin Youcai ran and cursed: "You ungrateful bastard! You think the land is too much! I think you have been living too comfortably these days! Go to work in the mountains tomorrow!"

Lin Jinyue smiled incoherently.

She said to Lin Youcai, "Of course we won't use all the land for farming. We won't set aside a piece of land for farming. If there is a lot of land, I think we should plant more fruit trees, such as candied fruits. When we open a cold drink shop, we will also need various fruits. We have to leave some land for planting trees."

However, that afternoon, when they took a walk in the woods, they discovered that the situation was not as simple as they had imagined.

Originally, everyone was worried that the forest land and wasteland were not fertile enough.

This problem is easy to solve. Lin Jinyue has never farmed before, but she knows how to make fertilizers, and can increase the yield of barren land.

But Lin Jinyue never expected that the vegetation here was dense and the soil was very compact. After digging with a shovel, she didn't bring up much soil, but instead she got tired first.

These are also easy to solve.

The most difficult ones are those trees that are so thick that two people need to hug them together.

There are still many such trees.

This is not the system world. No matter how thick the tree is, you can destroy it with a few swings of the axe.

Without mechanization, it would be extremely difficult to clear these trees.

Lin Jinyue finally decided: "Let's do this. We'll try to make paddy fields near the river, and then we'll plant rice. In the forest, we'll cut down all the trees that can be cleared, and plant fruit trees. We'll try to clear out a large area, so it'll be convenient for picking fruit later."

As for the cultivated land, Lin Jinyue had to draw a plow blueprint.

She had originally wanted to buy one a few days ago, but when she took a look at the plow at Fat Chen's house, she felt that the plow didn't look very smart.

Lin Jinyue prepared to draw an improved plow and ask Li the blacksmith to make it.

Let's see the effect from time to time.

Fortunately, I stocked up on a lot of iron utensils at that time, otherwise the barbecue grills and iron pots would not be enough now.

Lin Jinyue took a look and roughly planned the location for farming. She would think of a way to deal with those giant trees later.

Anyway, there are plenty of places to grow crops.

Lin Jinyue took out a pen and paper and began to calculate the expenses.

You need money to buy cattle and build farmhouses and other things. If you want to go to town to do business, you may need a slightly larger boat.

Therefore, during this period of time, Blacksmith Li and Carpenter Wang and his family cannot be idle for a moment.

You can't let people work for nothing, right?

Lin Jinyue also recorded their salaries.

She took a look at the fruit seedlings and fruit tree seeds in the mall...

Oh, another big expense.

In fact, for many fruits, you can plant them by removing the cores, but these fruit trees have not been improved and the fruits are very sour.

Since she was going to plant them, Lin Jinyue would rather buy the apple seedlings from the system mall.

The price is not too expensive and the quality is good.

But no matter how low the price is, she can’t resist planting a large area!

Lin Jinyue was running out of funds and could only think of ways to make money first.
