Black Widow became the richest man by farming

"Father Wenlong, look who's here." Mrs. Lin shouted excitedly into the yamen.

"Come on, come on, what are you shouting for?" Master Lin ran out from the lobby, saw Ye Sanniang and said happily, "Mrs. Ye, why are you here?" She cupped her hands.

"I'm done with the work in the field, so I'll come out and have a look." Ye Sanniang looked at them with crooked eyes and said, their complexions were vastly different from last year's. Vibrant and full of energy.

"Come in, come in, let's get cold." Master Lin said enthusiastically, "Mother Wenlong, I'm cooking two dishes."

"Hey!" Mrs. Lin replied happily.

"No, no, I'll go to the inn later." Ye Sanniang hurriedly waved her hands, fearing to increase their burden.

"Why do you dislike our simple food and drink?" Master Lin said with a straight face.

"Okay! Okay!" Ye Sanniang said helplessly, "I'll stay, thank you for your hospitality first."

"Thank you? We are afraid that the hospitality will not be enough." Master Lin looked at her gently and said, "Please come in, please come in."

Ye Sanniang followed them through the lobby and into the back office.

She hasn't been to Hou Ya, it's a typical farmyard, and there are a few reed chickens, crowing!
Compared with the magnificent state government's back office with gardens, the county's back office is simply incomparably shabby.

"Please sit in the room." Master Lin personally lifted the curtain made of rags and watched Ye Sanniang step into the room, and then followed into the room.

Ye Sanniang glanced at the main hall, there was a landscape ink painting on the wall of the main hall, under the painting was a case, with a memorial tablet, test first, her parents have passed away.

On the left and right sides of the table are large vases of magpies climbing plum blossoms, and brightly colored feather dusters are inserted in one of the vases.

The Eight Immortals table in front of the case is of log color, only painted with a layer of tung oil, and there are armchairs on the left and right sides.

There is a round table and four drum stools in the center of the hall, all in log color.

Ye Sanniang looked simple and bright, quite comfortable.

"Sit, sit!" Master Lin pointed to the armchair beside the Eight Immortals table.

After Master Lin sat down, Ye Sanniang put the big burden that took up half of the Eight Immortals table on it.

"Who is this?" Master Lin said, looking at the big burden in front of him that blocked his sight.

"This is a gift for you, cotton, ready to play." Ye Sanniang untied the bundle directly to reveal the fluffy white cotton and said, "Use the core as a winter coat to keep out the cold."

"It's so much, but it's worth the money!" Lin Wenlong looked at her with wide eyes and said, "In our county, there is a price but no market, and you can't buy it."

"It's too expensive." Master Lin waved his hands and refused, "I can't accept it, I can't accept it."

"Is this something my family can't harvest?" Ye Sanniang raised her eyebrows and looked at them lightly.

"Grow it yourself?" Mrs. Lin came in with tea, looked at the cotton on the table of the Eight Immortals with wide eyes, with a look of disbelief.

"What are you so surprised for?" Ye Sanniang looked at them with a smile and said.

"Remember, Mr. Lu is under his jurisdiction, and there are a lot of cotton growers." Mr. Lin said, looking at her with wide eyes.

"That's right!" Ye Sanniang said, looking at them with crooked eyes, "Cotton is a good thing, of course I've grown it."

"Then you planted it for your own use, it's not suitable for us." Master Lin shook his head slightly.

"I grow a lot!" Ye Sanniang looked at them with a smile and said, "There are tens of thousands of catties of cotton, can I still be short of cotton?"

"Hiss..." The Lin family father and son gasped.

"My boy, how much does it cost!" Lin Wenlong sat down on the drum stool, his eyes straightened.

"A few hundred taels of silver!" Ye Sanniang said vaguely.

It's actually a lot more than that.

"Our cotton here has been sold for [-] to [-] yuan a catty, which is even more expensive than pork." Master Lin couldn't help saying, "It doesn't matter if it doesn't matter."

"It's so expensive. I sold all the cotton I planted to the government office. At that time, ten cents a catty, the price was already very high." Ye Sanniang looked at them with clear eyes and said.

"You sold it to the government office." Master Lin said in surprise.

"That's right! When planting cotton, the government specially arranged for Mr. Li, who is knowledgeable in farming, to guide us how to cultivate it." Ye Sanniang said as she looked at them with eyes like black jade.

"You sold it at a loss, and now the selling price has doubled or tripled." Lin Wenlong said regretfully.

"Even if I knew, I wouldn't sell it to a private person, so as to disrupt the market price." Ye Sanniang looked at them with deep and bright eyes and said, "Hoarding and driving up prices, profiteers!" She said earnestly, "Being a man must have a conscience." .”

"I was wrong, I shouldn't be staring at the price." Lin Wenlong stood up and cupped his hands.

"Everyone loves money, but a gentleman loves money in a proper way. Cotton can be said to be a necessity of life, and it must be priced by the court to benefit ordinary people." Ye Sanniang looked at them with clear eyes and said, "We can't let those Unscrupulous businessmen act recklessly."

Regardless of the awe-inspiring righteousness she said, it's a pity that the cotton that she put into the treasury was also resold.

Unexpectedly, the price of cotton has been raised so high outside the state capital.

No wonder Song Daguan and others are crazy.

I just hope Master Lu will help and bring them to justice as soon as possible.

The Lin family father and son looked at Ye Sanniang in awe.

"By the way, is the cotton in Xiangping County so expensive?" Ye Sanniang looked at them in surprise and said.

"Expensive!" Lord Lin nodded emphatically, "There is still no market for the price, and you can't buy it. If it gets colder and colder this day, it will probably go up even more."

Ye Sanniang sneered in her heart, it's useless to go up to the sky, and she will soon realize what it means to be sad when extreme joy arises.

"I brought enough winter clothes for your family to make quilts." Ye Sanniang patted the cotton that was too big for the bulging Eight Immortals table and said.

"Not enough for the family." Ye Sanniang smiled and said again.

"Enough, enough." Master Lin said hurriedly, looked at her gratefully and said, "Thank you!"

"Why are you being polite to me?" Ye Sanniang smiled lightly and pointed at the cotton on the table of the Eight Immortals, "That...take it away first, okay? It's blocking the view."

"Oh!" Master Lin quickly stood up, and with his son, they pulled the four corners of the bundle and rewrapped it.

"First carry it to the kang in the back room." Master Lin and his son lifted it up, almost without being twisted to the waist.

"Put it down, put it down, why is it so heavy! I looked at the soft one and thought it was very light." Lin Wenlong looked at Ye Sanniang and said, "Aunt Ye, I think you can carry it easily."

"Uh..." Ye Sanniang was taken aback when she heard the words, and then said, "I am stronger than ordinary people." She stood up and said, "Come on, I will carry it in with you."

The three of them worked together to carry the cotton into the back room and put it on the kang.
