Even though the Lin family has plenty of money now, they have never seen such a scene. They were so shocked that they kept quiet.
Xiao Lingling didn't mind them giving her money. After all, there was still production in the space, so she wasn't worried about having nothing to eat.
Lin Changshu was so nervous that he didn't know where to put his hands and feet, but he calmed down and pointed to the backyard.
"Well, Third Prince, the thing is, you can take all of our harvest this year. I estimate the wheat yield to be over 2,000 kilograms.
Plus, the wheat must be nearly 10,000 kilograms. How are you going to transport it back?"
Su Jingxian was a little surprised that there could be so many, but he would never have too many of these things!
"Don't worry about that. I'll arrange a convoy to escort you. You just need to tell me where it is."
Xiao Lingling also stepped forward and said, "Master and I have made another batch of potions, which weighs almost 300 kilograms.
But this is the limit. If I want more, I’ll have to wait until next month. After all, medicinal herbs have their own growth cycles, so I can’t just get them whenever I want them.”
Su Jingcheng was not surprised, "Okay, it's already quite a lot, Mingshan, go and arrange for the imperial guards to personally escort these potions.
You must get the potion back to the capital safely. Don't be careless. The people are still relying on it to save their lives!"
Mingshan knew the seriousness of the matter, and immediately nodded and went out to greet the imperial guards.
Xiao Lingling also retreated and handed the three large jars of potion to the imperial guards.
Afterwards, Su Jingxian exchanged a few more words with Jiang Xinian, but seeing that the Lin family members were very reserved, he did not stay any longer.
He still needs to understand the situation of the drought here, so he will not return to the capital for the time being. He will stay in Huaxiang County during this period.
It was not until Wu Bokai and his men left that the Lin family breathed a sigh of relief. They all slumped in their chairs or on the ground, not caring about their image at all.
After Liu Mingyi and others had walked away, he excitedly rushed in and got close to Lin Changshu.
"Brother Lin, you've become so rich! Even the nobles in the capital are here. I couldn't hear clearly because of the commotion outside just now.
What exactly did you get rewarded for? It's a long, flowery thing to say, but I can't understand it."
Lin Changshu himself was also confused. He just heard that a lot of things were given. He saw the gold and silver, which were now placed on the incense table, but he didn't understand much else.
Fortunately, Jiang Xinian was more familiar with these things and hurried to help explain.
"Hey, actually, the reward is quite a lot. In addition to gold and silver, the main one is 500 acres of good farmland. It's useless to give it to you now. You can go to the county magistrate someday to find out where the farmland is.
Moreover, there is a drought now, so even if we give the land, we can’t cultivate it for a while, so there is no need to rush.
In addition, Brother Lin, you have been appointed as a seventh-rank official, the title of Deputy Supervisor of the Ministry of Agriculture, which is actually an official in charge of farming matters.
For the time being, you just have a title and receive a salary, but you don't have to go to Beijing or attend court. You just need to report on the cultivation of grain seeds every month.
The most important thing is Xiao Lingdang, who was directly named Princess Jiayin, and even our Shuanghe Village and the large mountains behind it were all placed under Xiao Lingdang's jurisdiction.
From now on, the taxation of Shuanghe Village will be determined by her herself, which is good for the village.
Although he didn't have much authority in other areas, he was still a legitimate first-rank official. He didn't have to kneel or perform rituals except when meeting the royal family.
Including the Third Prince you just met today, he only needs to bow, no need to kneel, and he can be considered a true noble family."
hiss~~~~~
After Jiang Xinian finished speaking, everyone inside and outside the courtyard gasped.
Wow, being a seventh-rank official is already very powerful, but I didn’t expect that the most powerful one is Xiao Lingling?
He is actually from the first rank?
The common people didn’t understand what the title of a county princess was, but they knew that the highest rank an official could get was a first-rank official.
Little Lingling is just a baby now, but she has directly become a first-rank official. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never believe it even if they were beaten to death.
But in fact, Jiang Xinian did not mention his own reward. In fact, his was the biggest. Although he did not have much authority, he was at least a genuine first-rank official.
But he didn't say anything, and no one asked any more questions.
On the other hand, Xiao Lingling felt uncomfortable as she was stared at by so many pairs of burning eyes.
"Wow, our village actually has a princess? This is truly a blessing that can't be achieved in eight lifetimes."
"Who says it's not true? When the Lin family first moved in, I thought they were something special. Look, it hasn't even been half a year yet, and their fortune has risen dramatically."
"Oh, I'm so envious. Why can't we have a baby like Little Bell in our family? If we had one, I would worship her like an ancestor!"
"Oh, I'm so envious. Don't you think about it? Let's not talk about other places. Just look at how many girls there are in Huaxiang County. But which one has such ability as this one?"
"That's right, forget it, don't think about it. If you think too much, you will be sad. The Lin family is honored, and we in the same village will also feel proud!"
......
Everybody was really happy, talking so much that little Bell's ears were buzzing.
As a last resort, I found an excuse and quietly returned to my room.
As soon as she entered the house, Wu Tongtong followed in.
Wu Tongtong sat down next to her with a smile on her face. "Why are you back so soon? Don't you want to chat with them more?"
Little Bell's face flushed at her playful expression. "Oh, Sister Tong! Please forgive me. I feel like a monkey in the mountains, being stared at and criticized by everyone. It's so uncomfortable!"
Wu Tongtong didn't laugh at her either. She poured her a cup of cold tea and said, "Okay, okay, I won't talk about you anymore. Here, have some tea. It's so hot outside. Look at your red face."
Xiao Lingling drank it all in one gulp and sat on the edge of the bed, not knowing what she was thinking, her eyes wide open.
"Sister Tong, tell me, is it good or bad to be born into a royal family?"
Wu Tongtong was amused by her nonsensical question, but she also unconsciously thought of the Third Prince whom she had just met.
I have to say, it is really different.
Although they were all in their teens, the aura of the Third Prince was enough to crush everyone when he stood there.
More importantly, his smile was particularly gentle, like a piece of warm and flawless jade, which made people feel at ease just by looking at him.
Xiao Lingling didn't hear an answer for a long time, so she turned to look at Wu Tongtong.
I saw her with a smile on her lips, her eyes looking out the window, as if she was thinking of something, her cheeks slightly red.
