Through the troubled times and famine, I just want to farm peacefully

The people below started to make a commotion when they heard this.

"Why don't we be placed in the same village?"

"Yes, we must be arranged together."

Lin Yiheng's face suddenly darkened.

"Longtan no longer has enough space to house more than 200 people at the same time, so we will place you in different villages. If anyone is unwilling, you can go back to where you came from. We will not force you at all!"

His words were so powerful that the villagers of Shidong Village fell silent.

"Does anyone have any objections now?" Lin Yiheng looked around at everyone and saw that no one spoke up, so he continued, "If there are no objections, those who want to stay, please line up here."

He stretched out his hand and pointed to the place where Pan Qingfeng was registered.

Everyone in the line looked at each other, no one wanted to be the first to step forward. Xiu'e took her son's hand, pushed through the crowd and walked straight to the registration desk.

"Xiu'e, you..." The chief of Shidong Village wanted to call her, but he couldn't say the words.

He wondered to himself, am I not even as good as a woman?

"Village Chief, thank you for taking care of my son and me over the years. I will definitely come to visit you when we are settled down in the future."

Xiu'e took her son and bowed to him, then handed her household registration to Pan Qingfeng.

Pan Qingfeng took the household registration card for her to register. While waiting, Xiu'e saw a recruitment notice posted on the bulletin board next to her. She had good eyesight and could see what was written on it at once.

"Registration is complete. The new household registration is ready. Please wait for a moment. After registration is completed, someone will be arranged to take you to the village."

"Sir, I saw a recruitment notice posted there. If I have finished all the work in the fields, can I go to the county town to find a job?" Xiu'e asked cautiously.

Pan Qingfeng couldn't help but look at her again, "Can you read?"

"My husband can read and taught me a little." Xiu'e looked sad when talking about her husband.

"Once the work is done, it will be no problem for me to come to the county town to work."

Pan Qingfeng looked away. This world is full of cannibalism, and he has seen it through a lot, so he has become more open-minded.

"So, thank you!"

Xiu'e pulled her son aside.

The next group to come up was a family of six, an elderly couple, a young couple and three children. The young man walked with a limp and was disabled.

After reading the household registration information, Pan Qingfeng glanced at the young man again.

The old man thought that he disliked his son, so he quickly said with a smile, "Sir, my son retired from the battlefield after injuring his leg. He doesn't interfere with farm work on weekdays."

"What did you do in the army before?" Pan Qingfeng asked the young man.

The old man was about to answer for his son, but Pan Qingfeng glanced at him and said, "Let him speak for himself!"

The young man stepped forward and saluted, "I used to be in charge of raising horses in the army."

"Can you read?"

The young man shook his head.

After Pan Qingfeng finished the registration, he handed them the new household registration and said, "Wait a moment."

The young man wanted to ask something but was pulled away by the old man. The old man was afraid that his son might offend the official by saying something unpleasant.

The registration work proceeded in an orderly manner and was completed in more than an hour.

Finally, the county government sent out a dozen guards, each leading a team, to go to the villages under the jurisdiction of Longtan.

Before leaving, Lin Yiheng took out the simple loudspeaker again and talked about the rules of farming in Longtan.

Finally, he said, "Without the permission of the county government, you are not allowed to buy or sell land privately. If you want to buy land, you can apply to the county government in advance, and the county government will send someone to verify and measure the land. If you leave it uncultivated for a season, the county government has the right to take back the land allocated to you."

Lin Yinan told him that this was to curb the private speculation of land and prevent wealthy households from engaging in land mergers.

After everyone had left, the old man and his family of six were still standing there. He walked forward nervously and saluted Lin Yiheng, his back almost bent to his knees in humility.

Even though his face was wrinkled, he still pretended to be calm and smiled and asked, "Sir, which village should my family go to?"

Seeing him so embarrassed, Lin Yiheng helped him up, patted his shoulder, and said gently, "Don't worry, the nearest place you want to go is the horse farm on the mountain."

"Horse farm?" The old man was puzzled. Aren't they here to farm?

"Doesn't your son know how to raise horses? Our horse farm on the mountain is in need of people. Give him eight cents of silver a month, and the rest of you will get four hundred coins. If you do a good job, your monthly salary will increase."

The old man's family all opened their eyes and mouths wide. With this calculation, excluding the three children, their family had an income of nearly two taels of silver per month.

This is something they never dared to think about before. Are they dreaming?

The young man was the first to come to his senses. He immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Bianheng.

"Thank you, sir! I will do my best."

Lin Yiheng looked at Pan Qingfeng helplessly, blaming him for not explaining it clearly to others just now.

"Get up and do your job well."

Not long after, Yun Mo rode out of the city with his secret guards, stopped at the city gate, and glanced at the old man's family with his sharp eyes.

"Is it them?"

"Yes, this guy used to be in the army and raised horses."

Lin Yiheng said this and pointed at the young man.

The young man was so frightened by Yun Mo's intimidating gaze that he quickly bowed his head and saluted. This man had a strong murderous aura, even more powerful than the generals he had followed in battle before.

"Let's go then."

Yun Mo rode his horse forward, and the secret guards behind him were afraid that the family could not keep up, so they slowed down and followed from a distance behind.

On this day, Lin Yinan was copying information about potato planting and fertilizer production in the county government office. The information in the space was all in simplified Chinese, so she had to re-transcribe it into traditional Chinese.

“It’s sprouting! It’s sprouting!”

She was copying intently when the clan leader's deafening voice came from outside.

In just one second, the modern information book in front of Lin Yinan disappeared out of thin air.

The tribe leader came in holding a sprouted potato in both hands, "Anan, look, I haven't checked it for two days, and the potato sprouts have grown this long."

A few days ago, the clan leader had a recurring cold and was unable to get out of bed. Lin Yinan even thought he would die.

Unexpectedly, Old Lin, who had just returned from the fields, threatened him that if he closed his eyes, he would steal all the potatoes from the county government and eat them.

Finally, the patriarch defeated the disease and recovered quickly just by insisting on protecting potatoes.

As soon as he was able to go to the fields today, he ran to see the potatoes he had been thinking about.

The patriarch's sallow and thin face was full of energy. Lin Yinan looked away, "Have they all sprouted?"

"It's rich!" The clan leader nodded and looked at Lin Yinan expectantly, "Anan, can we plant it in the fields now?"

"Well, it's time to plant."

"It just so happens that I just told Ah Shuo yesterday that two acres of land that was fertilized last winter has been turned over. Potatoes are very valuable, so it depends on which piece of land you plan to plant them."

Lin Yinan didn't expect that the clan leader was so considerate and even prepared the land.
