The story of a noble girl

Chapter 44

Lin Xiaoning calculated that for 3000 mu of land, four houses would be removed, as well as houses for new villagers, as well as land for brick kilns, porcelain kilns, fish ponds, workshops, and schools. Only about 2000 acres.

There are nearly [-] new villagers to be resettled by the Lin family. Women and orphans can work in workshops, and men can work in brick kilns and porcelain kilns.More than half of the wasteland has been opened, and now there are too many people, and it will be fully opened in less than a month.The land that has been opened is already being cultivated, and there is not enough fertilizer, so people have been sending people from the county to buy it.Seeds can be planted in spring next year.

Nearly 500 people, more than 2000 mu of land, with an average of more than four mu of land per person. If the young and weak are excluded, the land is enough for them to plant. They can also work in two factories during slack, so they will not make life difficult.

At this moment, Lin Xiaoning's donation to his eldest brother was implemented.

Official title: Lord Sitong; rank: Zhengqipin; annual salary: 20 taels of silver.

Although no matter what the matter is, the salary is not as good as Aunt Zhang, but at least he is a seventh rank, at the same level as the county magistrate Hu!

Now Taocun is like a bowl of water spilled into a frying pan and exploded!
Mr. Lin dragged his family to kneel down to the sky in the courtyard to worship their ancestors, crying. The Lin family is finally an official family!He thought that Xiaobao would be able to get a half-job after taking the imperial examination, but he didn't expect to resettle these refugees and build a road so that his eldest grandson could become an official.Mr. Si Tong, although he doesn't care about anything, it is an official title given out of thin air, and he is assigned a rank of seventh rank.But that is the seventh grade!How can such a matter of honoring the ancestors and ancestors be kept low-key.Mr. Lin set off a long string of firecrackers, and held a feast of running water, and invited the villagers to have a good time for several days.

Lin Jiadong was still in a daze, unable to come back to his senses, why did he become an adult, and he was still a seventh-rank adult!

The county magistrate Hu and the master didn't come to congratulate the Lin family's new house when it was completed. They only asked someone to present a mahogany plaque with the inscription "Lin Mansion".Now that Lin Jiadong is an official, County Magistrate Hu and his master came to Taocun to deliver the letter of appointment, and brought a mahogany plaque: Lord Sitong has been kind for a hundred years.

Lin Xiaoning suspected that this was Mr. Hu's bad taste. When he donated an official for his elder brother, Mr. Hu said that he could do such a messy and dirty thing!Now, the house is completed and the plaque is given away, and the eldest brother is also given the plaque when he is an official. Can Mr. Hu give something else besides the plaque.

County magistrate Hu is now more youthful and ruddy, with a full of elegance and Confucianism, and the goatee shows a touch of elegance.

Magistrate Hu said: "Girl, have I grown up recently?"

"Yes, yes, my lord is really suave now." Lin Xiaoning also boasted viciously.

County magistrate Hu happily stroked his goatee and laughed.

"My lord, can't you give me something other than a plaque?"

County magistrate Hu said with a smile: "Girl, I am a small county magistrate, how can I have money to buy expensive gifts, two mahogany plaques will cost me and my teacher a month's salary."

"My little county magistrate, my tooth has fallen out." Lin Xiaoning smiled and pulled Hu county magistrate aside, "My lord, I still have to buy land." She took a fancy to the other side of her land, which is Yuantao The piece of the village, the wasteland not far from the village archway.About five hundred acres.

There are more than [-] households in Yuantao Village, and the land they have opened up is only about [-] mu, and there are still several thousand mu of land left unused. The land over there is surrounded by green hills. After the Lin family opened two kilns, they went there. Dry firewood is pulled as fuel from the green hills far away, and the mountains stretch over there, and there is a lot of dry firewood accumulated.Before, because it was too far away, the villagers only went to the mountain where the old house of the Lin family lived to collect firewood and chop wood.The Lin family has mules for their feet, and people go up the mountain to collect firewood every day. A few old men and some children after school can do this job well, and can increase some income for the old and young.

The [-] mu of land is close to the archway at the entrance of the village. Lin Xiaoning intends to build a shopping street and a market. Now Taocun has a large population, but there is not even a grocery store. People from the county come to deliver goods every day, and sometimes they simply pull. It is really inconvenient to take a horse-drawn cart or an ox cart and load goods to sell in Taocun.With the completion of the shopping street, those people can rent a shop and have a facade, and the living facilities of Taocun people will be much more complete.

County magistrate Hu agreed without further ado, saying that the land deed would be completed within two days.When Lin Xiaoning was leaving temporarily, Lin Xiaoning handed over a pack of notoginseng powder, magistrate Hu said in a low voice: "Girl, I took your powder to the doctor at the pharmacy to see it, and he said it was a thousand-year-old notoginseng powder. Girl, you are so generous. I am an old man who has been taking advantage of a millennium, so don't give me this powder, use it for money."

Lin Xiaoning whispered: "What's not a thousand years old? I picked Panax notoginseng on the mountain because of my mentality. Besides, my lord, do you think my family is short of this money?"

County magistrate Hu burst out laughing when he heard this, took the medicine powder and put it away carefully, then looked at Lin Xiaoning meaningfully and said, "Girl, you are a good person, and it is a real fate for me to make you this year-end friendship, girl, I will soon I have to go back to the capital to take office, and I brought the master, and I will also return to the capital together. We won't be able to drink your elder brother's wedding wine."

Lin Xiaoning was stunned: It was so sudden, why did he have to leave?Listen to me, Mr. Hu used to be a Beijing official, why did he come to such a small place as Qingshui County?However, it is only natural for a person like Mr. Hu to return to the capital, and that is where Mr. Hu should stay.Lin Xiaoning said with great reluctance: "Girl, I have always known that your lord is not a small county magistrate, but I never thought that your lord used to work in the capital. The next county magistrate of Qingshui County wonders if he can love the people like a child like Lord Hu .”

County magistrate Hu said: "The next one is a new official, a young brother named Su. Your elder brother is also a seventh-rank official now. The new county magistrate will not and dare not embarrass your Lin family. Girl, I will send some people here before I leave. , The five hundred acres of land don’t need money, it’s counted as a homestead for resettling those refugees, I’ll ask Lizheng to deal with you later, and get these people’s household registration and homestead deeds done.”

Lin Xiaoning's eyes were red, and he said: "My lord is leaving, I don't know when I will be able to see you again, please let me know before you leave, my grandpa and brother will see you off."

County magistrate Hu also said with red eyes: "Yes, I will notify you in advance when I leave."

At night, Lin Xiaoning flashed into the space holding Wangzai.

Wangzai has been really playful recently, and the time to go home is getting later and later. If Lin Xiaoning doesn't shout, he won't return.

Lin Xiaoning hugged Wangzai and said, "Wangzai, Mr. Hu is going to the capital, I can't bear it. He is a good man, he is my bosom friend."

Wangzai listened absently.

Lin Xiaoning asked: "Wangzi, what's the matter with you recently, is it too lonely by yourself, you run up the mountain every day, have you made new friends?"

Wangzai nodded.

Lin Xiaoning smiled and said, "If you make new friends, bring them back, so you won't have to go up the mountain every day."

Wangzai grinned loudly, which meant he was happy.Lin Xiaoning sighed: "Wangzi, I have been in Taocun for half a year in a blink of an eye, and you have grown up, and you know how to make friends. Look at how nice this space is, all the medicinal materials and fruits you picked back. , and it’s all your favorite food. You bring your new friends and you can play here at night.”

Wangzai rubbed against Lin Xiaoning coquettishly.

Lin Xiaoning likes Wangzai to be coquettish the most, so he kissed Wangzai and said, "Wangzai, look at so many precious medicinal materials in our field, how come they won't grow until 2000?"

Wangzai squeaked.

Lin Xiaoning couldn't understand, but a flash of inspiration came to his mind: "Wangzi means that they can only grow to 2000 years, and then they will become fine, but they can't become fine. Is it?"

Wangzai nodded.

Lin Xiaoning found that when Wangzai said something that was not easy to understand, a flash of inspiration would flash in her mind, and that idea must be what Wangzai wanted to express.

"It's really my good hope boy," Lin Xiaoning said, "Such a spiritual energy, can you become a good boy, Wang boy?"

Wang Zai shook his head.

Lin Xiaoning had another flash of inspiration, and said, "In this world, people and things can't become smart, right?"

Wang Zai nodded approvingly at Lin Xiaoning.

Lin Xiaoning looked at the stinky Wangzai and almost laughed out loud. He took out tools and dug out all the thousand-year-old medicinal materials, and transplanted the new seedlings that he had sown himself.

All the medicinal materials dug out were sorted and placed in the backyard of the wooden house, piled up like a pile of radishes and cabbages.

"There are so many precious medicines, one plant is worth 10 taels, am I rich like a country now?!" Lin Xiaoning snickered, hugged Wangzai out of the space and lay down on the big mahogany carved bed, sighing happily.
