Chapter 17 How did hunting wild game turn into a rebellion?



“It was different back then when my father was still alive.”

"Anyway, when my dad was young, I saw him harvest five acres of land in a day. He was very hardworking and had a very high yield."

"We don't know what's going on. Maybe our generation is just not up to par. We can't even harvest two acres a day."

"No matter how I think about it, something just doesn't feel right. We're all human, can it really be that each generation is worse than the last?"

Once someone dared to voice their doubts, the villagers' chatter grew louder.

“Old Miao is right. Not to mention our generation, even our generation has tried harvesting several acres of land in a single day,” Wang Junjun’s father, Old Wang, chimed in.

“I also think Lin Mo has a point. As long as the work is finished, that’s all that matters.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Gang felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

"Village chief? You too..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Mo added a bombshell:

"Uncles and aunts, I'm going to catch some fish in a bit!"

"If we can finish harvesting all the wheat today, I guarantee that the fish I catch will be enough for everyone to eat at least a pound!"

These words caused an uproar among the villagers.

Chen Gang's mind went blank, and he roared:

"Lin Mo! You've rebelled!"
