wealthy lord

Chapter 323 Time is running out
  Lin Yun nodded with a smile.

And the old village head also said: "Mr. Lin, do we really need to be so exaggerated? In today's peaceful and prosperous age, Niubei Village can be regarded as getting rich under the leadership of the young master! The Lin family should give the young master more rewards and support. That's right!"

Yang Tiexin gave him a strange look and said, "Mr. Lin, the old village chief doesn't know?"

The old village chief looked confused. He really didn't know anything, let alone the relationship between Lin Yun and the Lin family.

Lin Yun nodded and said: "Old village chief, there are things I have never said to you. In fact... the relationship between me and the Lin family, the lord of the vassal, has long been a fire and water! Although it is now a stage where we can fight without breaking up, sooner or later we will be torn apart. Damn your face! Although it’s a little early for me to do this, it’s also very necessary!”

The old village chief took a breath and said in silence: "Sir, the Lin family of the feudal lord is a local prince protected by the imperial court. Isn't it too dangerous for you to be an enemy of the Lin family?"

Although the old village chief was very grateful to Lin Yun for his actions over the past year and knew that he was very capable, if he were to become an enemy of the feudal lord Lin family, the old village chief did not think that Lin Yun would have much chance of winning.

Lin Yun was not angry when faced with his doubts.

Lin Yun knew that the old village chief had been oppressed by the feudal lord Lin family for many years and had developed a strong servility, and he did not even dare to resist.

"Old village chief, what you said may make sense! However, have you ever thought about it. In the eyes of the Lin family, they have no intention of making Niubei Village rich and living a good life. Before I came to Niubei Village, How many lords sent by the Lin family have been replaced?"

"This... there are probably three or four terms!"

The old village chief was also very honest and spoke directly.

Lin Yun nodded and said, "What have these three or four lords brought to Niubei Village?"

"No! Niubei Village is like an iron-clad camp. Their arrival is just a routine matter, but privately they are taking bribes and bending the law!"

"So, don't you understand? The main purpose of the successive lords sent by the Lin family is to help the Lin family squeeze out the value of Niubei Village! When they make enough money, they will be dismissed! In the end, they may experience an accident and disappear completely In this world!"

Seeing Lin Yun's serious expression, the old village chief was shocked. He didn't expect that the Lin family was so dark.

If it is true as Lin Yun said, the lords sent by the Lin family are pitiful, then their Niubei Village is pitiful, and they will be pitiful for generations to come.

Because in the eyes of the Lin family, they are just tools to squeeze value.

Thinking of this, a flash of hatred flashed in the old village chief's eyes.

Lin Yun took in his expression completely and said with a smile: "How is it? Now do you still think that what I have done is useless?"

The old village chief bowed and said, "Master Lin is wise, but the little mouse is short-sighted!"

After listening to Lin Yun's story, he finally understood how pitiful Niubei Village was.

And Lin Yun is the savior of their Niubei Village. Only Lin Yun can lead them to the final victory and completely escape the fate of being oppressed and humiliated.

Lin Yun nodded, looked at Yang Tiexin and said, "Mr. Yang, how is the production of those two hundred bamboo guns going?"

"Don't worry, sir. The arrangements have been made. The villagers are working hard right now. It will be completed by tomorrow afternoon at the latest!"

"Very good! This matter cannot be delayed! I have a hunch that the Lin family will take action against Taoyuan Town in the next few days!!"

Yang Tiexin frowned, still a little worried, and said, "Mr. Lin, why don't you go and go there yourself?"

Lin Yun shook his head and said: "I can't show up! It's even more impossible to meet the Lin family now! We can only provide weapons to Taoyuan Town! As for whether my star brother can withstand the pressure from the Lin family this time, it depends on his own ability Got it!"

"In addition, today, the Niubei Mountain fortress must be completed. Tomorrow it will begin to officially mine hematite!"

Yang Tiexin and the old village chief looked at each other, immediately bowed and said, "I obey my orders!!"

They understood that Lin Yun wanted to break the old order and re-establish a fair and just new order. And the beginning of it all started with Niubei Mountain mining.

However, Lin Yun's current headache is how to sell the iron ore after mining it.

That's the biggest problem.

According to the original plan, mining iron ore to manufacture weapons and equipment was the primary purpose, but Lin Yun made the plate so big that money was needed everywhere.

If he can't make more money in disguise as soon as possible, it will undoubtedly be very difficult for him to continue to develop and grow.

After much deliberation, he settled on Cui Mingchong, the Minister of Household Affairs.

Only he has the ability to help himself.

However, the sale of iron ore this time cannot alarm the imperial court, let alone let the current emperor know about it.

Everything is known to be done in private.

Therefore, Lin Yun planned to go to the city in person.

After all, as the driving force behind the scenes, it is impossible for him to remain invisible forever.

It is very necessary to interview Cui Mingchong.

Moreover, they also had a win-win cooperation, which established trust between them.

But before setting off, Lin Yun must ensure the safety of his lair and arrange everything properly so that he can rest assured.

Thinking of this, Lin Yun patted Yang Tiexin on the shoulder and smiled: "Let's go! Follow me back to the operation room!"

Yang Tiexin looked surprised, but still followed Lin Yun and left, while the old village chief was left behind to cooperate with Ah San to supervise the construction of the fortress.

But in fact, the so-called fortress just adds a layer of barrier to Niubei Mountain, which is quite simple. Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible to complete the project in one day.

Returning to the operation room, Yang Tiexin asked: "Mr. Lin, what's the matter with you?"

Lin Yun smiled and said: "There is something wrong. I need to make some more copper and iron bullets!"

While he was talking, he took out a pair of iron blocks from the broken basket in the corner.

Yang Tiexin stared at it and said: "Master Lin, making copper and iron bullets is a delicate job. It will be very difficult to complete it in a short time!"

Lin Yunwan said: "Just because it is a detailed job, I plan to improve efficiency!"

Seeing him struggling to move the iron block to the table, Yang Tiexin said in surprise: "You are not planning to just use iron to make it, are you?"

"Of course! As the saying goes, sharpening a knife doesn't cost any woodcutter. Since we want to improve efficiency, we must first create tools for forging copper and iron bullets!"

Yang Tiexin took a breath and said: "Making tools? My Mr. Lin, did I hear you correctly? Polishing bullet casings is a delicate job and requires pure hand carving! If you use tools, the requirements are very high. , which requires very precise tools!”

Lin Yun smiled mysteriously, picked up the pen and paper on the table, and drew a simple sketch.

"Do you know what this is?"

Yang Tiexin stared at it for a long time, then slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know! But it seems difficult to make!"
