Lin Jinyue almost spat out her tea.
She also guessed that Old Tan's identity was extraordinary.
Logically speaking, shouldn't such scholars be the most principled?
They even instigated her to rebel!
Lin Jinyue quickly waved her hand: "Old Tan, don't overthink it. We are law-abiding citizens. It's just that we are in a special period and need special treatment. Once the court stabilizes, we will still live our lives well."
Mr. Tan hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
Lin Jinyue: "Old Tan, you are a high-ranking official. You shouldn't be instigating people to rebel!"
She really had no such intention.
Lin Jinyue had little desire for power.
If one wanted to become emperor, one could only imagine how complicated it would be.
Lin Jinyue thought about it and decided to forget it; she would just focus on managing their own little plot of land.
Looking at Lin Jinyue's expression, Old Tan sighed repeatedly.
He really thought highly of the Lin family.
When Lin Jinyue and her group became successful, their first thought was to help the villagers become successful as well, and they also placed great emphasis on education.
Why did Mr. Tan not go to the prefectural school, but instead stay in such an obscure academy as its dean?
That is, I saw the sincerity in Lin Jinyue's heart.
Some clans establish clan schools, perhaps with the intention of expanding the clan's influence, but they all have their own selfish motives. Clan members can provide some assistance in officialdom.
But Lin Jinyue went to great lengths to set up the academy, only to reap no benefits.
They paid out of their own pockets to buy them writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones, and both boys and girls, including those who came to their village later, could learn for free.
Oh, I forgot to calculate the subsidies Lin Jinyue gave to their teachers.
Besides education, Lin Jinyue took care of every aspect of the villagers' lives.
She considered everyone's needs in every aspect, from clothing and food to housing and transportation. Even the farmers sent by Boss Cen were guaranteed basic sustenance.
During the typhoon, she encouraged the villagers to take in these farmers, and her family took in quite a few.
You could say they have absolutely no airs.
Lin Shucheng was, after all, a clan chief who also served as the village head.
Other village chiefs put on airs and seek personal gain, but Lin Shucheng is a good village chief...
In the words he learned from Lin Jinyue, they were like neighborhood committee aunties who mediated all sorts of trivial matters every day.
When their family received something good, their first thought wasn't to claim credit, but rather for things like potatoes, cotton, etc.
Any one of these achievements could be enough to earn a minor official position.
However, Lin Jinyue and her group only promoted the potatoes to the villagers, and they were also thinking about promoting them to the people of Lingnan. Although they had exchanged favors with Gu Shao, they still wanted Gu Shao to promote the potatoes to a wider area.
And then there's Lin Xueqing, who said he didn't want to get involved in messy things, but in the end he still did his best for the soldiers who were forcibly conscripted from Lingnan.
Such sincerity, such concern for the world.
Who else is more suitable to be emperor than them?!
Putting everything else aside, Old Master Tan, that old-fashioned guy, thinks Lin Jinyue is the most suitable.
What happened to the Empress?
As long as it's for the country and the people, and he cares about the common people, the Empress is happy to serve him.
Old Tan was thinking all sorts of things.
Lin Jinyue didn't notice at all and quickly went over to have the system replay the recording to see what formula they used that was so powerful!
If she could create this, she wouldn't be afraid of even a single navy soldier.
After looking at it for a long time, I still couldn't figure it out.
The other shells were only so-so in terms of power.
We still need to strengthen military capabilities.
Looking at Lin Jinyue, Old Tan felt more and more that she was destined to be an emperor.
My mind started working; why not drag that son-in-law into this mess too?
It just so happens that his son-in-law has been running a business in Lingnan for many years...
Lin Jinyue, however, said in a sinister tone behind him, "Old Tan, are you still thinking about that matter?"
Old Tan glared at her, "If you want to rebel, I can get you a lot of helpers."
Lin Jinyue waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, I want to enjoy a few more years of carefree life. My father becoming emperor? Forget about it."
“If my father were the emperor, I would be the most spoiled second-generation rich kid, keeping more than a dozen male concubines. I would build two hot spring palaces at once, one to live in and one to look at and play with.”
Mr. Tan: ...
Never mind, never mind.
Lin Jinyue smacked her lips. To be honest, she didn't even want to be the village chief. The higher the position, the greater the responsibility.
Seeing those people who are starving and cold, she would definitely not be able to bear it.
Da Gan has been ruined by those damned princes and emperors, and she can't be bothered to take over this mess.
In the future, she will develop some industry and textile technology, promote potatoes and sweet potatoes, so that everyone can have enough to eat and wear, and she will just take care of her own little plot of land.
If she were to become emperor, she would lose all her hair.
Lin Jinyue made some foolish remarks, and Old Tan hasn't come to see her for several days.
Quite a few people came to visit the village.
Everyone has their own methods.
I heard that the governor himself came to their village and got along well with the village elders.
As a result, many people brought generous gifts to visit.
Some more ambitious people insisted on sending their children to Yunhe Village.
At this moment, the Li family from Guangcheng also arrived.
Madam Li and Mr. Li both changed their tune.
The butler following behind them was trembling with fear, afraid that Lin Jinyue and the others would be angry about what had happened before.
Lin Jinyue's parents also came out together.
The two men's expressions turned sour as soon as they saw Madam Li and Master Li.
They immediately gave me the cold shoulder.
These two people are gentle and polite to everyone, but they never make anyone feel awkward.
Anyone who has ever hired Lin Shucheng and Jiang Yun knows that these two are capable and easy to get along with. As long as the money is right, they can make anything from cakes to delicacies.
Lin Shucheng saw that the Li couple still had dark expressions.
When he saw the young master of the Li family standing behind Master Li, Lin Shucheng said directly, "Please leave Yunhe Village. We do not welcome you."
What the hell? They actually dared to bring Li Yangyun along.
What kind of person is Li Yangyun?
She started having sex with both men and women around the age of thirteen or fourteen, and it was the bottom one.
Madam Li is really shameless. She made his daughter become Li Yangyun's concubine before, and now she actually dares to bring people over!
Madam Li had previously been arrogant, acting as if it was an honor for her to have Lin Jinyue as her concubine.
This time, Madam Li changed her tune.
She laughed and said, "Oh dear, we had a bit of a misunderstanding last time, but it's all cleared up now. I was just being silly back then..."
Madam Li paused for a moment, then continued, "Oh my, look at Yueyue, what a beautiful girl she is! My son is also quite learned. If things go well, our family will definitely bring Yueyue home in a grand wedding procession."
Lin Shucheng immediately exploded, "Get the hell out of here!"
Everyone in the village had heard about the Li family's situation.
What a piece of trash! He wants to marry Fu Bao from their village?
The village guards immediately assembled, each armed with crossbows and machetes, and pointed them at the Li family.
Lin Jinyue said coldly, "Get out of here! Otherwise, if you accidentally hurt someone, don't blame us for the danger of swords."
Worried that these people might cause trouble, Lin Jinyue added, "Our village is currently working for General Gu, and there are military secrets in the village. If anyone dares to come again, we'll tie them up and send them to General Gu!"
