Chapter 090 Sandstorm and Autumn Harvest Buff 3
Sophia was so surprised that she ran out, knocked on the door and asked her neighbors, "Has your land recovered its fertility?"
The neighbor opened the door, his eyes sparkling, "It's recovered! It's recovered!"
Things can't be hidden in this town, and more neighbors opened their doors, "What are you arguing about?"
"Soil! Look at the soil!"
Upon hearing the reply, many people rushed to check, and then ran back happily to report the good news. Some people even started exclaiming in shock before they even left the house:
"Oh my God! Really!"
“The soil seems to have recovered even better!”
Someone else was also sharp-eyed: "It doesn't seem to be recovering. Have you noticed? I feel like our soil is thicker! My vegetable garden is surrounded by stones. Originally, the soil was less than halfway up the stone steps, but now it's almost overflowing!"
After hearing this, everyone ran home again, and when they looked, it was true!
An old lady exclaimed, "Oh my god, the land in my house is as thick as the width of my palm! Thank you, Master Lin!"
Another man said, "Mine is as thick as a finger's width!"
Everyone looked at the man in surprise.
There is a huge difference between the palm and the fingers!
Could it be that Lord Lin is partial to one and not the other?!
Sophia smoothed things over, saying, "I guess Lord Lin can't accurately control the distribution numbers. Don't overthink it! If that doesn't work out, I'll give you some of my land!"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but sigh that Sophia's family was really great.
It was obvious that when they were dealing with Bob, they did not understand the situation and even asked to deal with Sophia. However, Sophia not only did not bear a grudge, but also helped them whenever she could. She taught them the trick of pickling mustard tubers for free, and helped them make a lot of money.
Therefore, someone chimed in: "It's okay! At worst, we can just divide it among ourselves later!"
"Master Lin definitely didn't mean it!"
"She can help us increase the fertility of the soil, so we should be grateful to her! Whatever she distributes is her due. If we are dissatisfied with it, wouldn't that be a bad heart?"
Seeing that everyone was talking at once, all speaking for Lin Muqiu, Ludmila couldn't help but curl her lips.
As commoners, why are they so partial to the lords and nobles?
Since ancient times, has nobility had a good thing?
He couldn't help but retort, "You're actually still speaking for the lord, a bunch of brainwashed people! Who knows if the person the lord favors is an old acquaintance of hers?"
The aunt, who was implied, was furious when she heard this. "What do you mean? I haven't even met the Lord, how could I..."
The man who had originally spoken interrupted, "No, what are you guys arguing about? I didn't say anything! I was just trying to say that the soil on my property was originally compacted, and the texture was hard like rock. But the new soil is black, loose and soft, just like bread. I'm so happy!"
The old lady was shocked. "What? Black soil? My family was allocated ordinary yellow soil!"
Russell felt like he had solved the case. "I know! Lord Lin must have distributed the soil based on each family's land situation! That's why everyone gets different amounts of soil!"
Everyone suddenly realized what was going on and went home to check. After a while, they came back to share their experiences and were amazed.
"I just tested it, and the soil in my house is originally very acidic, but the soil assigned to me is alkaline!"
"There was sand and gravel in the soil of my house. When the wind came just now, not only did it bring a gust of dust with it, it also blew away the sand and gravel in the soil of my house!"
"Master Lin is amazing! I can't tell what's wrong with my soil, but it's clearly in better condition!"
“…”
Everyone was so excited that they chirped like sparrows. At the end of the conversation, they automatically became fans of Lin Muqiu again, as if they were volunteering to promote him:
"The Lord is truly amazing! At first, I thought she was just using minerals to enhance our soil fertility, but I didn't expect she'd even distribute the soil among us. I thought that was the end of it, but hey, Lord Lin actually distributed it based on the conditions of our land. Amazing!"
"Luckily I made up my mind to settle down a while ago, otherwise I almost missed out on such a great opportunity!"
"Where can we find such a considerate lord?"
“…”
The sound of praise was like an endless drizzle, chaotic yet unified, and Ludmila's mouth twitched slightly when she heard it.
Why is it that every time you chat, you always talk about Lin Muqiu!
Yes, if what this group of people said is true, then Lin Muqiu is indeed good enough to lead everyone from hunger to today's prosperity, and everyone should be grateful to her.
But at this moment, he just wanted to quietly retreat back to the hut to avoid being discovered and becoming a target of public criticism. However, as soon as he stepped over the threshold, someone smiled and pointed at him by name: "Ludmila, what do you think?"
Ludmilla's back stiffened instantly, and she laughed awkwardly. "Well, Lord Lin is indeed very resourceful."
When everyone stopped, I felt much better.
During the conversation, a whistle sounded loudly. Everyone was startled and subconsciously picked up their weapons and got ready.
The sound of the whistle always meant something big was happening in the town, but when they listened carefully to the rhythm of the bell, they slowly relaxed.
If there was danger, the bell would have sounded a hundred times more urgent than this, instead of the whistle being as gentle and soft as a string as it is now.
That must be something good happening.
What could it be?

On the city wall, the townspeople and the guards watched the yellow sand swirl. However, they could see that the protective shield was like a barrier, separating the inside from the outside. On the outside, a pile of sand and rocks was sweeping, while on the inside, countless piles of soil accumulated.
The protective cover acts like a separator, allowing soil to enter but not sand and gravel.
Even some soils with poor fertility were blocked out by Lin Muqiu using the Lord System.
The townspeople immediately understood where the soil for their homes came from.
Lord Lin is ready to implement the bug to the end!
This made them exclaim in admiration:
"Master Lin is so amazing!"
"No wonder the soil we were given is so diverse and dazzling. It turns out it's a collection of soil from all over!"
"Oh my god, who would have thought that the protective shield could be used like this? Lord Lin is so clever! If it were me, I would only think of it as a way to protect the town. I guess Lin Muqiu used the sandstorm to blow away a lot of dirt from many towns!"
"Oh my god! I never thought someone could actually control a natural disaster. Lord Lin is definitely the chosen one. You know, I used to come from a big city, and no one could do this!"
"Okay, okay, I know you used to be from a big city. You've emphasized this so many times these days!"
The guard shouted with a smile, "Alright! Stop talking nonsense! Let's quickly clean up this dirt and move it to the land after the storm stops. Otherwise, it will affect the appearance of the city! Lord Lin said there will be a reward for those who clean it up!"
Everyone responded excitedly and started to clean up.
For their convenience, the lord has delivered the soil to their doorsteps, so it is only natural for them to help clean up the town!
What's more, the lord gave them rewards!
Seeing this scene, guard Augustine chuckled in confusion.
If it were usual, Lin Muqiu would have specially asked them to clean up and probably paid them this much money, so what are these people so happy about?
Unfortunately, he couldn't understand that in everyone's mind, they had decided not to ask for money, but later found out that they still got money. This feeling of getting unexpected money is always sweeter than getting a salary directly.
The former is labor, the latter is work.
Everyone was laughing and tidying up when a reminder came from the system:
【Land quota compensation:
The planting manual has been updated, and the course content of the Civilian Academy has been updated. Please check it in time!
The following is a brief explanation: The planting method taught to you in the summer before has drained the nutrients from the soil too much, resulting in a decrease in soil fertility. In the future, you must not over-exploit your crops, but plant in rotation and apply fertilizer in time.
So today we have provided soil compensation to the growers, please check it out.
Advertisement insert ^_^: Lin Muqiu's fertilizer shop has opened, please come visit us! 】
Everyone: “…”
It’s okay to insert advertisements in system notifications. This is very Lin Muqiu.
The most important thing is that she tells you clearly, as proudly as a child: Look, I'm going to insert an advertisement!
I guess there is no other lord in the entire continent who would do this.
But they are still happy to do so.
Grace, who was helping to clean up, whispered to Elizabeth, "If I buy fertilizer, can I move the blueberry bushes in the wild into town?"
Elizabeth glanced left and right, checking that no one was around, then whispered, "The fertilizer shop Lord Lin mentioned is actually made from the fermented feces of the beast tide animals... You know, I work at the animal taming shop. If you need it, I can give you an internal price, 30% off!"
Grace was startled, "Animals?"
It's no wonder she was scared, mainly because no one had ever dealt with animal manure before.
After all, in the past, they could not even tame wild beasts. They were terrified even when they encountered wild beasts. Some people even regarded everything related to wild beasts as scary and poisonous and were extremely afraid of them.
I didn’t expect that Lord Lin Muqiu would use this to make money?

Lin Muqiu sat in the lord's hall, calculating Nicole's progress.
Once Nicole goes to the north and then to the west and south, it means that all the west, north and south are connected. As long as she waits for the east to be processed, she can establish a business network for the entire continent and exchange what she has.
The only thing to worry about now is the East.
What should I do if I have no network of connections and no free staff?
Kede Luo whispered a reminder, "In fact, other towns have long been dissatisfied with the Duke of the East, but they have never expressed it. Everyone... just lacks an opportunity."
After all, how could he be a good person if he could raise sons like Archmage Otto Hunter and Lord Oez?
Lin Muqiu nodded and thought seriously.
It would be very troublesome to confront the Duke head-on. It would be easy to "surround the city from the countryside" and slowly infiltrate the good things of Ankang Town into other small towns until the Duke's territory is surrounded.
As she sketched, her Lord System popped up a reminder:
[Lord Oez and his son Di Si are visiting the town, saying they want to discuss business related to the Chamber of Commerce with you. Do you want to let them in?
—Guard Augustine delivered.]
Lin Muqiu's eyes flashed and he put down the pen and paper.
Lord Oez, what is he doing here?
Could it be that he was flattering the Duke and wanted to take action?
But this is not the most important thing now.
The thing is, Oez is Augustin's father, and right now the two are facing each other on the city wall. Thinking of their previous conflicts...
Lin Muqiu stood up and decided to go and see what was going on.
