However, even so, the best harvest was only four or five stones per mu ofnd. When it was bad, it was only two or three stones. Sometimes, when there was a natural disaster, there was no harvest at all. Their lives were very miserable.
Originally, when the county magistrate forced them to farm ording to a certain method, many people instinctively refused out of tradition and conservativeness. They did not dare to take risks. However, if they didn’tply, they would have to face a fine of five taels of silver per mu ofnd.
Five taels of silver, wouldn’t that mean that their family’s hard-earned savings would be emptied?
Therefore, they had no choice but to do as he said.
But now, it seemed that they were really d that the county magistrate had forced them to do so. Otherwise, they would not be able to see this golden field now.
“From the looks of it, at least five stones per mu!”
“Yes, five stones was the best harvest in the past. Now, look at everyone’s paddy fields. They should be able to produce five stones per mu. In the past, we were all envious. We didn’t expect that we would have such a big harvest this year.”
“Yes, such a huge harvest is something we never thought of before.”
“Yeah, I didn’t even think about it. I heard that this method was thought of by someone from the Lin family vige. In the second half ofst year, her family’s paddy field produced eight stones per mu. After our county magistrate heard about it, he looked for that person. Then, he came up with this method of forcing the entire county to farm.”
“Heavens, eight stones per mu. How on earth did she farm to have such a high
“I heard that this is the method. It’s just that she’s smart and capable to do it so well!”
“If our fields can produce seven or eight stones per mu in the future, we can eat polished rice every day without worrying about starving!’
“However, speaking of which, although we can’t produce seven or eight stones per mu now, we can produce five or six stones per mu. It’s still much better than before. We don’t have to starve!”
“Yes, you’re right!”
Right now, all the people in Anding County were discussing the harvest of thend.
Lord Liu of Anding County had been traveling incognito these days and had checked everywhere. He was extremely satisfied with the results.
This was his first year as the county magistrate of An Ding County.
This kind of peaceful life where themon people ate, wore, and lived in peace and contentment was a good political achievement.
At the same time, he was d that he didn’t snatch Lin Yun’s credit back then. Instead, he had cooperated with her and it was a win-win situation!
Moreover, ever since he received the secret decree, he knew that he could not offend Lin Yun.
That was because Lin Yun was too mysterious.
Who would have thought that a little peasant girl like her could actually reach that person’s ears?
There was no doubt that Lin Yun’s paddy field was better than others. Every ear of rice was full of grains. Moreover, the grains were plump and golden.
Lin Yun looked at the ripened rice grains and estimated that the weather these days would be sunny. Therefore, she chose a day to harvest the rice grains.
However, before the harvest…
“Greetings, Your Majesty!” At Lin Yiwei’s home… In a secret room, someone was there to greet Emperor Yuwen Longyan who had suddenly appeared in the house.
“Yes, get up!” the Emperor said in a dignified manner.
The Emperor brought Eunuch Zhang and a few guards, disguised as merchants, and came to find Wu Ming as his family.
This was a very legitimate reason.
Back then, Wu Ming used the excuse of amnesia to stay in Lin Yiwei’s vige.
Therefore, it was normal for the family members toe looking for him.
However, one of them was the emperor, and the other was a secret guard. It was not easy to determine their family positions.
However, the Emperor had directly made his number one secret guard his nephew.
When Lin Yiwei heard that Lin Qingshan/Wu Ming’s uncle hade to visit, he was both surprised and excited.
After all, Lin Qingshan had lost his memory ever since he was rescued at Da Ao Mountain. He had stayed in the Lin Family Vige for almost half a year, but there was no way to find his family.
Unexpectedly, Lin Qingshan’s rtives suddenly came looking for him.
“Qingshan, is this really your uncle?” The reason why Lin Yiwei had such doubts was that Lin Qingshan had lost his memory for so long and could not remember anything. Now that someone who imed to be his biological uncle had suddenlye looking for him, he was naturally puzzled and worried..
