The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 49
The people in the village were eating, and Wang Dayong came back on horseback.

Lin Hai asked someone to help him pick up the horse.

"You're back so soon? Why are you so tired? Hurry up and sit down and rest!"

"I didn't dare to stop while riding my horse. I took 100 taels of silver with me for fear of encountering an accident!"

Wang Dayong took the bowl and drank the water in big gulps.

"100 taels of silver? Did they give you a reward?" Lin Hai immediately guessed the result.

"You're right!"

Wang Dayong took out ten ingots from his clothes, all of which were fine snowflake silver.

The villagers who were watching were all stunned.

"This is fine silver, so beautiful!"

"Originally I listened to you and didn't want their money, but you insisted on letting me take it.

Moreover, the eldest lady also said, let me hand over the money to you and let you see how you divide it.

He also said that if you have money, you can study hard and stop hunting in the future! "Wang Dayong said.

“Since it’s given to you, let’s keep it and keep the money for eating together in the village or doing things together in the future.

Just use this sum of money! Lin Hai said.

Everyone was very satisfied after hearing this. If all the money was given to Orion, some people might be jealous.

By leaving the money to the village, everyone benefits, so there is no fault to be found.

And they, the hunters, caught two tigers, and each of them got a lot of money.

Of course they, the hunters, didn't object.

Lin Hai knew that when doing things in the village, as long as it was money on the surface, everyone must benefit.

Either he is making a fortune in silence and cannot let it out, otherwise it will arouse the jealousy of some people.

It is absolutely taboo for ordinary people to get rich in the countryside.

Give the money to the village chief for safekeeping, and spend money with the village chief later.

"To give you so much money at once, it seems that the identities of these people we rescued are not simple!" Lin Hai asked.

"Not only is it not simple, it is definitely a wealthy family. The house they live in is almost as big as half of our village. And there are guards guarding the yard at regular intervals.

I think this person's identity is certainly not simple.Maybe he was a high-ranking official who came down for a private visit. "

Wang Dayong spoke and gestured with his hands.

There is a garden here and an old tree there.

"That's not true. A high-ranking official would come to this small place for a private visit?" Lin Hai didn't believe it.

But looking at such a big battle, his identity must be no ordinary person.

"It would be great if you go. I see that the eldest lady always asks you questions and is very concerned about you."

The speaker was unintentional, and Qiaoer immediately became nervous after hearing this.

"What nonsense is Wang Dayong talking about? My husband cannot let that woman worry about him."

"Hahaha, what are you thinking about? I'm just kind-hearted, so I won't fall in love with a country rough like me." Lin Hai said with a smile.

Lin Hai still underestimated women's sensitivity.

Qiaoer was still nervous and worried.

My man is becoming more and more capable, and even other women in the village are extremely envious when talking about him.

If this continues, I am afraid that my husband-in-law will really be unable to bear the thought of taking a concubine.

Sitting next to Lin Hai, holding his arm tightly, refusing to leave anywhere.

Lin Hai didn't think much about it, let alone marry any young lady.

Because that's not realistic at all.

Ancient people attached great importance to status and had extremely clear hierarchies.

It is impossible for people from the upper class to look after the people at the bottom.

Unless the imperial examination can really achieve the top three in high school, the future will be bright.

Only in this way can one be favored by a wealthy family and enter a wealthy family.

Even so, he still has a foreign surname and his status is still relatively low.

"Tomorrow Dayong will bring the tiger to the Yamen to collect the reward. Then you can quietly ask the county magistrate if he is willing to buy the tiger. Although the price of selling it to him is not high.

This will at least create a good relationship.From now on, even if we are investigating the matter of us cutting firewood in the mountains, it will be easier to talk about. "

Lin Hai explained.

Wang Dayong knew that this was bribery in disguise.

If you give money directly, people may not be interested in you if you give less.

If you give too much, you will feel bad for yourself.

Although rare objects like tigers are not very valuable, they are at least rare.

Tiger skins are definitely very classy when used as gifts.

"Okay, I understand." Wang Dayong agreed.

On the second day, Wang Dayong took several hunters to the city.

There were also people playing gongs and drums to follow, so this kind of thing had to be done with great fanfare.

It is a great event for both the village and the government.

Lin Hai inspected the land on the mountain and found several tenants to work on it. He was able to level several acres every day.

And watering is easy, just dig ditches and let the water flow.

Qiaoer also followed.

Now wherever Lin Hai goes, Qiaoer will follow him closely, for fear that he will be snatched away by other women.

Lin Hai felt funny in his heart and did not expose it.

What a blessing it is to have such an obedient woman who cares about me so much.

Lin Hai felt relieved when he saw that the work in the fields was going very well.

The key is that Lin Hai not only paid them wages but also took care of the food, and also promised to give them [-]% of the harvested food.

This made all the tenants highly motivated and worked harder than ever.

At this time, a hunter ran over and said to Lin Hai: "Some strangers have come to our village!"

"Who is he? Have you asked clearly?"

“A total of seven people came, two women and five men.

I saw that they were well dressed and did not look like ordinary people. "

"Come on, let's go see who will come to our place."

Qiaoer couldn't help but said: "Didn't Dayong say that the person you rescued yesterday asked carefully about where we live?

Could it be these people? "

"It's possible, they probably took a fancy to the crossbows and gunpowder guns we used.

They must be from the government! "

Lin Hai was not too nervous. Since he came out incognito, of course there was room for negotiation.

He took several hunters to the entrance of the village to greet him.

I happened to see a few people walking towards me.

"Miss Lin, why did you come to our place?"

Lin Hai said with a smile.

"This is my father, Lin Tiangui! I heard that I was rescued by the young master, and my father said that he wanted to express his gratitude in person."

Lin Ruoxue said.

"By the way, I gave us a 100 tael of silver as a thank you gift yesterday, and I haven't apologized yet.

Everyone who has come from afar, come and sit at my house! "

Lin Hai invited.

Lin Tiangui looked Lin Hai up and down and saw that he looked talented and extraordinary.

A look of surprise flashed across his eyes.

He never imagined that there would be such young talents in such a remote village.

"Yes, I heard that you have read books and even led hunters to hunt.

It can be said that he is brave and resourceful, what a talent! "

Lin Tiangui nodded while talking!
