Chapter 429 Not bad, another good man
Li Xianlie had just returned from Wen Zhuo when he received the news.
He talked to Wen Zhuo for a long time, but the other party kept playing Tai Chi with him and refused to give him a single honest answer.
So in the end he had to return empty-handed.
But when he got home, he heard the housekeeper say that everything in Zhaojia Village had been smashed, and he almost fainted from anger.
The reason why it was smashed was because Li Song was smart enough to find a group of thugs to block the road.
What's even more ironic is that it was these thugs that Li Song hired who finally destroyed all his deployments in Zhaojia Village.
"Li Song, you bastard, he has caused me so much trouble!" Li Xianlie was so angry that he cursed.
Because of the surging blood in his chest, his body uncontrollably took a few steps back.
If Butler Li had not supported him in time, he would have fallen to the ground.
"Master!" Butler Li looked at him with a worried look on his face. "Do you want to call a doctor for you?"
Li Xianlie's face flushed red. He shook his head hard and shouted in a rough voice:
"Need not.
Go, take people and bring Li Song back to me immediately.
No, after catching him, break his legs first, and then drag him back to me.
He's incapable of accomplishing anything, but always capable of causing trouble. I've been ruined by him."
I clearly told him to get lost, but he still took the initiative to bring people to block the road.
Li Xianlie was so angry that his chest hurt, and he couldn't help but breathe heavily to avoid being angry to death.
Butler Li nodded, looked at him worriedly, and then turned and left.
Li Xianlie took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and then sat down aside.
He stared ahead with gloomy eyes. The Xu family must have been involved in this matter, otherwise those thugs would not dare to destroy his territory. Damn it!
No, he couldn't. He had been at a disadvantage several times in the confrontations with the Xu family. He couldn't just sit there and wait for death.
He must find a way to swallow up everything of the Xu family as soon as possible.
He can't do it alone, so he can find someone.
He needed someone to protect him and someone to swallow up the Xu family's assets with him.
The White Tiger Hall wants benefits but also wants to keep itself out of trouble, but there is no such easy thing. They have to pay for the protection of their own people.
As for the person who would cooperate with him to take over the Xu family's business, he now had a partner.
Wen family.
The Wen family's ambitions have never been small.
However, how to get the Wen family to join him in dealing with the Xu family is a headache.
Although Wen Zhuo is young, he is not easy to fool.
How can I convince him?
Li Xianlie looked up irritably, but when he saw the graceful girl walking towards him with tea in her hand, he had an idea in his mind.
He stood up, his face gentle, "Li Ting, come on, go out with Dad!"
Li Ting, who was holding a cup of tea, looked confused. Why did she feel that her father was a little more friendly to her today?
…
Lin Mo didn't know what the Li family was planning, and even if she knew, she wouldn't take it to heart.
She just smiled when Li Song brought people to block the road, and then didn't take it to heart.
Xu Pinggui can handle this kind of thing.
They were just a few grasshoppers jumping happily, not worth her attention.
However, Jia Qingshan's willingness to work for her was a pleasant surprise for Lin Mo.
After all, talent is hard to come by.
After Jia Qingshan came to see her, Lin Mo chatted with him for a while and then asked him to follow Xu Dapeng to familiarize himself with the things here.
Xu Dapeng is in charge of all affairs in Yuancheng, so it is wisest for Jia Qingshan to follow him.
After arranging these things, she took Qi Zhengfei and headed straight to the village entrance.
Qi Zhengfei's foot has recovered as before. Lin Mo originally asked him to rest for another two months and come back to help after his injury healed more completely.
But Qi Zhengfei refused to do so and just followed her with a spear in hand.
She said that he had no special skills except that he was a good gun player, so he could only serve as her bodyguard and protect her as a reward.
But having Qi Zhengfei serve as his own bodyguard was really a waste of talent.
But Qi Zhengfei was stubborn and wouldn't listen to anything she said.
Lin Mo could only let him follow her first. Anyway, she didn't need him to do anything. He would just follow her around, which wouldn't involve his injury.
And after a while, there will be other arrangements for him.
I asked him to bring so many wounded soldiers here, not to let them work and farm here.
The two of them quickly arrived at the field, and Lao Song was waiting for them in the field.
As soon as Old Song saw Qi Zhengfei, a big smile appeared on his face:
"It seems that your suffering was not in vain. Good, you are another brave man."
Qi Zhengfei nodded. "If it weren't for Madam Lin, I would probably still be a useless person now, so I have to thank Madam Lin. Madam Lin is..."
Lin Mo rolled her eyes. "Stop it, your words of thanks are making my ears greasy. You don't have to say them to every person you meet."
Qi Zhengfei said with a straight face, "I must say, I will never forget your kindness."
Lin Mo on the side was completely speechless.
She really couldn't do anything about Qi Zhengfei. Even a cow couldn't pull him aside with his stubborn temper.
No, I have to find a way to send him to do something else.
Otherwise she was afraid that she would get angry.
Old Song chuckled, "Don't mind it, Madam. This kid is like this sometimes, very stubborn. Once he sets his mind to something, even nine oxen can't pull him aside."
Qi Zhengfei kicked Old Song and said, "Don't say bad things about me in front of Madam Lin."
Old Song quickly dodged to the side, looking disgusted:
"Well, you're the boss, I'm afraid of you so I won't tell you."
Then he looked at Lin Mo and frowned:
"Young Madam, come and look at these corns. They have grown so big, but they haven't bloomed or borne any fruit.
The rice and soybeans planted by others have already bloomed and have pods, and the harvest is about to begin.
But these corns have no flowers or fruits. Did we overlook something when we planted them, so they haven't bloomed or borne fruit?
If this is the case, Old Song will really be worried.
During this period, many people came to see the corn they planted, and if they were not careful, the corn seedlings would be pulled out.
Does he know what the purpose of these people pulling out corn seedlings is?
I just wanted to see what the corn looked like.
After all, I didn’t see anything edible on the pole, so I could only guess that it grew underground.
Generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with this guess.
But what is surprising is that after pulling out the corn stalks, there is nothing left except the rhizomes.
Therefore, many people sarcastically criticized them for planting grass.
In short, what he said was extremely unpleasant.
Old Song and the others didn't take these things to heart at first, but as more and more people were talking about it, they started to worry too.
So, he couldn't help but invite Lin Mo over.
Lin Mo was a little confused.
To be honest, she doesn't understand either.
But she insisted on growing corn, so she naturally couldn't show her weakness at this time.
Lin Mo said calmly, "Don't worry, there will be absolutely no problem with the corn, and the yield will be very high.
Don’t you see that the corn is growing well? You are taking good care of it, and it will not let you down.”
Old Song smiled bitterly. This concerns their food rations for the whole year. How can they not be careful?
I just feel unsure and panic.
Old Song looked at Lin Mo seriously, "Young Madam, is this really okay?
Where do the corns grow? In the ground or on the stalks?
Lin Mo was a little confused by the question.
She tried hard to calm herself down, and then looked carefully at the cornfield in front of her.
To be honest, it's all green and lush, and it looks very pleasing to the eye.
But it doesn't bloom or bear fruit, no wonder Old Song and the others are worried.
After observing for a while, Lin Mo pointed to a section of the corn stalk and said, "It hasn't grown up yet. When it bears fruit, it will grow out from here.
You see, compared to other places, it's already bulging and forming fruit. We just need to wait for it to grow."
Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she had seen what mature corn seedlings looked like.
Otherwise, I would definitely not be able to answer Lao Song’s question.
Old Song looked carefully and found that the place was indeed bulging.
But where does the fruit grow from?
Feeling hesitant, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at the other corn seedlings.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief when I discovered that most of the corn seedlings had a small bulge at the joint of the stalks.
It really grew from here. Just now, he saw a hint of green breaking out from these bulging areas.
That should be corn.
It turns out that corn grows on stalks, not underground. I just don’t know what it looks like when it grows up!
Old Song felt a tinge of anticipation in his heart. He looked at Lin Mo with an embarrassed look on his face, "Young Madam, I..."
"It's okay, you don't have to apologize to me. It's normal for you to worry!" Lin Mo interrupted him:
"Now is the time for fruiting. Remember to apply fertilizer in time. Don't delay at this time!"
"Yeah!" Old Song nodded seriously.
"Please rest assured, Madam. We will take good care of our corns, even more carefully than we would take care of our own sons!"
This is related to whether you will starve in winter, so you must not take it lightly.
"They are just some weeds. Why should we take care of them? You think they are human beings and compare them with your son. I think you are crazy."
A discordant voice suddenly interrupted.
Just as Lin Mo looked over to find the sound, the other party just happened to walk next to them.
Lin Mo looked at the other person carefully and soon showed disdain.
He looks like a scoundrel, with eyes that don't know where to look. You can tell at a glance that he is not a good person.
When Old Song saw the other party, his face darkened:
"Zhang Tiancheng, what are you doing here again?
I tell you, we won’t agree to what you said before, so leave now!”
Lin Mo raised his eyebrows and asked, "Know him?"
"Get lost! I'm not here to see you." Zhang Tiancheng pushed Old Song away and walked straight to Lin Mo:
"Are you Madam Xu Shao?"
After asking, Zhang Tiancheng looked at Lin Mo with naked eyes, and there was obvious disgust in his eyes.
It was as if he had seen something disgusting!
