After death, I became the cannon fodder of the three protagonists

Chapter 257 Their Hope
Li's face turned pale, and he frowned tightly, annoyed, "Then what should I do?"

Mrs. Li is not a pessimist, but really believes that those people will do such things for their own benefit.

Su Mo rubbed the space between her brows, "When I first heard the village chief talk about Steward Lin's request, I knew it would be impossible.

But at that time, it was not easy to tell this matter. After all, we will believe this kind of thing, but other people may not believe it. Maybe they will think that we have taken advantage of Manager Lin, so they say such threats them. "

Mrs. Li took a sip of tea from her cup, but the anger in her heart was not suppressed at all, "After all, it's still because of a greedy word.

It's just a little bit of a sign, and it's gone. Those who are picky and picky, really think that the merchants outside are so easy to talk to, and they can choose according to them.

There is nothing so good in this world. "

"It's normal to be greedy. People live for a few taels of silver."

Su Mo put down her hand, picked up the cup and took a sip. The tea was slightly cold, and the coolness penetrated down her throat and into her lungs.

"Actually, there are ways to do it. I've seen it these days. Those households in the Wang family don't seem to be able to farm by themselves at all..."

Mrs. Li nodded approvingly, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of her mouth, "I heard from your eldest brother that the older generation of the royal family still thinks about the glory of the previous dynasty, and looks down on the muddy legs that grow crops."

"Such as this labor service, if it is not compulsory, some older generations of the Wang family will stop the men in the family from going to work.

At the beginning, your father-in-law taught fishing and didn't like to learn it. He couldn't bear it after suffering so much, so he calmed down a bit. Now he started to toss around again, and he doesn't know where he got the confidence. "

"There is a scholar in the family, and he is sure of winning the exam, so he has confidence."

Su Mo is also convinced by some members of the Wang family, like a kite without a string, it floats when the wind sees it, and doesn't think about how badly it will fall when the wind stops.

After hearing this, Mrs. Li sighed. After all, what Su Mo said made sense. Zhongju is equivalent to half-stepping into the officialdom, so it can give them confidence.

She took another sip of tea and got back to business, "What's your idea?"

Su Mo looked serious, "I thought, since they don't want to farm, how about we find a way to buy the fields?"

Mrs. Li frowned slightly, "It's really hard to say, after all, it hasn't been long since Guanshi Lin came out, and we came out to buy fields again, and they're afraid they will sit on the ground and raise the price."

Su Mo naturally knew this too, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and said meaningfully: "So the people who come forward can't be us, we have to find a new face, and then we have to spend a little time to get them to beg someone to buy their land. "

Li Shi heard the meaning behind the words, she looked over suddenly, her heart beat faster, "This...is it not good?"

Su Mo didn't take it seriously, and looked at Li Shi with a smile, but there was no smile in her eyes.

"Sister-in-law, you and Brother Chen have been in business for almost a year, don't tell me that you can't accept secrets between merchants."

Mrs. Li lowered her eyes and held her teacup tightly, "But it's from a village..."

She was a little reluctant.

Su Mo didn't want to go around with her, picked up the cup, drank the tea in it, and then said: "Sister-in-law, let me tell you the truth, no matter how this matter develops, I will never suffer of.

Mr. Xie has already told me that in August Qiuwei, he will take Jinnian and Qingzhou to visit his mentor.

If there is no accident, then a letter from his mentor will be sent to Minglu Academy in the capital to give Jinnian and Qingzhou a chance to enroll.

I naturally put the children's future first. As for this field, I just rent it out.

So I just come up with an idea on this matter, and I won't force you if you don't want to.

But I hope you can think about it after you go back. If you let it go, when the entire Luoshan Village is involved in the conspiracy of those merchants in the future, will those merchants be ruthless? "

It was a coincidence that Xie Wenci just received a letter from his teacher yesterday.

In the letter, his mentor planned to resign from the post of mountain chief after the fall of autumn in August, and take his wife to hide in the mountains and forests, and lived the days of picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and seeing Nanshan leisurely.

Because of this, his mentor thought he hadn't met Xie Wenci's disciple yet, so he met him before he left Yaozhou Mansion, and if he caught his eye, he would help him a little bit.

He has been the head of the mountain for many years, and it is still possible to get two places in Minglu Academy.

Su Mo was still thinking about the failure of Manager Lin's business. If someone made a mess in the future, wouldn't his ten acres of land be improved in vain?

Unexpectedly, Xie Wenci came to the door last night to tell her the good news, and Su Mo was immediately overjoyed.

As for the life and death of other people, she is not a kind-hearted Virgin Mary, so what does it have to do with her.

Besides, she originally planned to go to the capital, but now it's just a little earlier.

Su Mo got up, sent away the hesitant Li Shi, and then completely forgot about it.

In mid-June, the fields are watered.

Su Mo took the time to go to the field, and the field next to his seven acres had already grown some weeds. Although there were only sporadic emerald greens, it still made people feel comfortable.

After Su Mo went back, he told the village chief the news, and the next day, the yamen servants rushed to Luoshan Village to inspect the fields.

They soon discovered that some saline-alkali fields had grown weeds, so they resisted their excitement and inspected all the fields before rushing back to report.

Xiao Jin learned that he had successfully found weeds in the saline-alkali land, and the big rock hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.

God bless, it is expected to be completed in July.

After the water is released, it is natural to plow again, and the village is in full swing. When the deep plowing is over in late June, the sluice will be released.

Su Mo took advantage of the night to visit the three gates and poured the soil improvement solution.

In the past, Su Mo thought that the soil improvement solution would only be used in some people's fields, but until now, she didn't pay attention to it.

After all, if I go to the capital and then return to Luoshan Village, I don't know when it will be, and the task has a time limit. She has already done so much for the task, so she might as well do a little more.

The effect of the systemic soil improvement solution is good. The water is stored in the ground, no weeds grow, and the field ridges are different.

Unknown weeds gradually covered the field ridges, covering it with new green clothes, dotted with small white and purple flowers. When the village chief and villagers saw it, their eyes were red.

This is their hope.

Xiao Jin also came with the yamen servants.

He watched the village chief and the villagers knelt down to salute and thank them in tears, and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Sour, swollen, and proud linger in my heart, and I can't get rid of it for a long time.

See, he was also a good official praised by the people.

Xiao Jin raised his hand to get the village chief and the villagers to stand up, and then he brought up the business, "The water has been stored for half a month, now it's time to dig out the ridges and release the water, and then we can start planting.

Last month, I made an appointment with the heads of other villages to let them grow more rice seedlings.

Tomorrow the Japanese officials will summon them to the county government, and you, Village Chief Chen, will come and discuss together to see how much rice seedlings can be provided there.

At that time, you will count how many people in the village are willing to buy rice seedlings for planting..."

Xiao Jin paused for a moment, then glanced at the villagers in Luoshan Village, "This is the only thing I can help you with. The rest is up to you."

The village head quickly responded, "I thank you, the magistrate."
