Old Master Hu was furious with his elder brother.
This stubborn and inflexible temperament is like a rock in a latrine—stinky and hard.
Uncle Hu was getting anxious: "If you're not leaving, then let's split the family property. I'll take my wife with me."
Boss Hu frowned: "I didn't say I wouldn't go, I was just asking why you insist on going?"
Master Hu then said, "They have some special skills. They can make crossbows on their way to escape famine, and they have a good relationship with General Gu. They must be from a prominent family who fled here with letters from their clan."
"Especially the Lin Shucheng family, Lin Shucheng himself has profound insights into the ways of business..."
He carefully observed his elder brother's expression and said directly, "I'm afraid he's far above you, elder brother."
Sure enough, his proud older brother's face immediately turned ugly.
What Uncle Hu didn't say was that he felt the Lin family's little girl's business acumen surpassed even his elder brother's.
Uncle Hu continued, "They said Lingnan was going to be in chaos. You didn't listen to me a month ago. Look, it's dragged on until now. The county magistrate has already sent his wife and children away, and you still won't leave."
“Brother, if we don’t leave now, it will really be too late. Don’t distrust them. They said that if even such a remote place is captured, they will sail out to sea. That little girl even has a nautical chart.”
Boss Hu: "She said it was a nautical chart, and you believed her?"
Uncle Hu continued, "Then I definitely had to investigate, and the result was pretty much the same."
To everyone's surprise, Boss Hu's focus shifted: "What? You went with the nautical chart? They even gave you the nautical chart?"
Master Hu nodded: "That's right, I have an agreement with that girl now, and she trusts me."
Old Master Hu's focus is never on the same thing as Third Master Hu's.
He murmured, "To be able to bring out something so precious, they must have some real skills. In that case, let's pack our things and go."
Master Hu: ?
No, he thought he would have to use his words more.
You agreed so easily?
Uncle Hu was puzzled, and then he was greatly shocked.
Uncle Hu sighed, "Brother, why were you so stubborn before? People should go first, and things can be transported slowly. The young lady is easy to talk to, but we can't take advantage of her for nothing."
After making the arrangements, Uncle Hu prepared to depart.
Old Hu was also starting to worry, wondering what kind of gift would catch that person's eye.
It was Master Hu who suggested, "She likes money and she also likes people farming. You should bring more servants over to farm; she'll definitely like that."
Old Hu was a little confused.
This little girl has some really unusual hobbies.
In the blink of an eye, it's New Year's Eve, and Yunhe Village is bustling with activity.
This time, not only people from their village, but also people from nearby Chenjia Village and Gaojia Village brought small stools to listen to their storytelling.
Only one grocery store remains open in the city, and now almost everyone from the village is still there.
It's like celebrating the Lunar New Year early.
Lin Jinyue and the others listened to Wang Cuiju tell stories inside the makeshift restaurant, while people from the neighboring village were outside.
Those young masters who didn't go home for the New Year finally angered their elders. Wang Cuiju told stories every day, and if you missed one, it wouldn't be made up for. You could only wait until after the New Year to hire a new storyteller.
So, all the elders in their family came over.
Who knew that after arriving, I forgot to discipline the child for a moment and became engrossed in listening to the audiobook myself.
These people usually carried loose silver coins with them, and when they heard something exciting, they would throw silver coins onto the stage, such as silver ingots that cost ten taels of silver each, as if they were free.
Lin Jinyue finally experienced the thrill of being a livestreamer in her previous life, with viewers spending lavishly on her.
Although the money wasn't given to her.
Lin Jinyue also specifically instructed the kitchen to prepare several more hearty dishes so that the gentlemen from the city could also broaden their horizons.
The cured meat and sausages they made were not the sweet Cantonese sausages of later generations.
It's the salty kind.
The vegetables weren't the common chives or Chinese cabbage of ancient times, but rather high-quality garlic sprouts and yams grown in the space.
Stir-fried Chinese sausage with garlic sprouts, braised Chinese duck with lotus root, braised pork belly with preserved mustard greens, beef brisket with tomatoes...
All of them were hearty dishes.
Everyone inside had it, but those outside could only sit on small stools and smell the aroma. Only a few wealthy families could afford to buy it.
It's not that Lin Jinyue and the others are stingy.
Instead, by opening this door, seven or eight nearby villages have to come over.
We need to know who gave and who didn't, so that not only do we not build good relationships, but those who weren't taken care of don't also harbor resentment.
Moreover, meat is a rare commodity nowadays, and it's not something that can be given out casually.
Like Ji Zixuan's father, Ji Mingyu, whose eyes lit up after taking a bite of the sausage.
He had never eaten meat with this texture before.
Ji Mingyu also secretly said to his son, "Did you leave room for me, your mother, and your uncles and aunts?"
Ji Zixuan was listening intently when he asked, "Huh?"
Ji Mingyu became anxious, "That courtyard? The courtyard where we'll be living from now on."
Ji Zixuan asked in surprise, "Dad, didn't you complain before that this place was a godforsaken place, and that I was out of my mind to spend a million taels?"
Ji Mingyu was almost driven mad by his brat son.
Just then, someone shouted from the doorway: "Er Ya, Er Ya, a huge ship has arrived in our village, a really big ship!"
Wang Cuiju, who was telling the story upstairs, was also flustered.
Just as the story was about the heroine starting her comeback and getting revenge, the author abruptly added, "To find out what happens next, please stay tuned for the next episode."
This made everyone who came to listen to the story very anxious.
Ji Zixuan's father was still holding onto Wang Cuiju, saying, "Hey, hey, don't go! I'll give you money, one hundred taels of silver! Keep going!"
However, after hearing from Lin Jinyue that the situation outside was not good these past few days, Wang Cuiju and the others became more and more vigilant.
If you're about to lose your life, what need do you have for money?
The young men on duty also regretted it. How come they were so tempted after Lin Jinyue persuaded them?
On New Year's Eve, everyone is preparing for the New Year.
It was at this time that everyone was caught off guard.
The group hurriedly reached the shore. Lin Jinyue took out her binoculars and saw Master Hu and his wife standing on the gunwale.
Lin Jinyue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Uncle Hu has been eating a lot of dishes made with chili oil lately, and with the recipes written by Lin Jinyue, he has become even rounder and looks more amiable.
Lin Jinyue greeted him with a smile, "Uncle Hu!"
When Hu Sanye saw her, he beamed with joy, "I've brought my entire clan to seek refuge with you."
Lin Jinyue's eyes lit up instantly: "Welcome! You can choose any land in our village! We guarantee the houses built there will make you very comfortable!"
Ji Zixuan was dissatisfied. "Why should I be subject to purchase restrictions on land? And I'm not even given more land?"
The next moment, Ji Mingyu gave him a sharp rap on the head.
These younger generation members have never been to Yunsong County and do not know the Hu family, but their adults do.
Ji Mingyu never expected that someone from the Hu family would come to seek refuge with this little girl, Lin Jinyue.
Why is Master Hu being so cautious with a little girl?
Ji Mingyu could no longer listen to storytelling.
He needs to hurry back and tell the old man about the situation.
