Rich and powerful

Lin Yun knew very well that to mine the hematite ore on Niubei Mountain, a sound infrastructure was needed, such as an ironworks for smelting iron ore.

There are also villagers who have been tempered for a year, and they are also qualified for the next job of mining iron ore.

Everyone is united, and under the leadership of Lin Yun, it is not difficult at all to make further progress.

The only thing to watch out for is the threat from outside.

At this time, Lin Yun grabbed a large handful of red envelopes in his arms, sprinkled them directly into the sky, and shouted: "Red envelopes are distributed on New Year's Eve!!"

When the villagers heard that it was a red envelope, they went crazy again and started to grab it.

What Lin Yun did was not pretending to be a nouveau riche, trying to buy people's hearts.

Although the villagers were very enthusiastic and gave him great support.

But everyone also knows that Lin Yun sold the 20 catties of grain he had previously stored.

If he didn't share some money with the villagers, it would definitely make them feel uncomfortable and think that Lin Yun was stingy.

Therefore, it is very necessary to spread red envelopes tonight.

On the side, Ah San was dumbfounded, and asked, "Old Yang, do you know how much money the young master has spilled this time?"

"I don't know! However, the young master said during the day that each of these red envelopes contains at least 50 taels of silver notes, and some even reach hundreds of taels!"

"hiss!!"

Ah San took a breath and said, "Master, you are really a man of temperament. There are so many red envelopes, at least hundreds of them. Don't they cost thousands of taels of silver?"

"Mr. Lin is very talented, so naturally he doesn't take these money seriously. What's more, you can make a lot of money in your hands now! As far as I know, the monthly income from selling perfume and medicine alone is tens of thousands of taels." Silver! This is not counted as the money for the annual bumper harvest!"

Ah San nodded solemnly, he could see that this Fourteenth Master was really a person who did great things.

This also made him very excited.

Now I am the leader of the private army in Niubei Village, and I can be regarded as the absolute confidant of the Fourteenth Master. As long as I work hard, I will definitely prosper in the future.

After that, Lin Yun jumped off the boulder and said with a smile: "Four ladies, let's go home!!"

The four girls all nodded. Although they didn't get the red envelope, they didn't envy them at all, because the outstanding man in front of them was their husband-in-law.

At this moment, Lin Yun came to Ah San's side alone, took out a red envelope from his bosom, and said, "Take it!"

Ah San looked astonished, and said, "Master Fourteen, you don't need a humble job!"

"What good things are you thinking about? This red envelope is not for you! You go down later and distribute these red envelopes to the soldiers! They have guarded Niubei Village for Lin Yun for nearly a year. There is no credit but hard work!"

Ah San scratched her head in embarrassment, and said, "Okay...Okay!!"

Yang Tiexin held back a laugh.

Making Ah San even more speechless, she turned around and left.

He took advantage of the place where no one was there to open the red envelope and saw that there was 5000 taels of silver in it.

Although it wasn't much, it was still more than the villagers of Niubei Village, because there were only about 200 private soldiers in Niubei Village, and on average, each person got more than [-] taels of silver.

This kind of income, even if you look at the ordinary officials of Daduan Shenchao, it is considered a high salary.

This made Ah San very shocked, but also very happy. Now that they have a strong army and a good salary, no matter how big the problem is, the soldiers will go all out.

Because everyone understands that if Niubei Village and Lin Yun fall, their jobs will also be shattered.

Here, Lin Yun looked at Yang Tiexin and said with a smile, "Mr. Yang, don't be angry if I didn't prepare a red envelope for you!"

Yang Tiexin waved his hand and said, "Young Master gave me an annual salary of 6000 taels, I am already very satisfied! How can I be angry!"

"That's good. When the sun rises, it will be a new year. I will also arrange the next work for you!"

When it came to business, Yang Tiexin immediately became serious.

Although he is old now, he has become Lin Yun's confidant in his career.

This also made Yang Tiexin very proud. He was a bad old man with his neck buried in the loess, and he was very grateful to Lin Yun for being so reused.

"My lord, please order!!"

"You heard it during the day, I want to prepare two hundred bamboo tube guns for my starling! It must be completed within three days! In addition, I will bring another [-] pieces of ammunition to the warehouse!"

Yang Tiexin glared, and said, "So many? Young Master, the ammunition can be supplied in batches. Giving too much is too risky, isn't it?"

Lin Yun smiled and said, "It's okay! I just want to use this opportunity to test my starling's heart!"

Yang Tiexin sighed inwardly, this Mr. Lin is really cautious enough.

It is conceivable that if Lin Xuan could not resist the temptation to use the [-] ammunition for other purposes, the consequences waiting for him would be tragic.

Based on Lin Yun's scheming, he won't do anything to him in the short term, but once he loses his use value, it's not certain what Lin Yun will do.

Of course, if Lin Xuan can pass the test, he will get more in the future.

Yang Tiexin nodded, and said: "Okay, I understand! It won't take three days, I've already figured out the principle of the bamboo gun, at most two days, two hundred bamboo guns will definitely be finished!"

Lin Yun said with a smile: "High efficiency is a good thing, but the quality must pass the test! These firearms are not a joke. If the quality is not good enough to cause the chamber to explode and hurt our own people, you will always have to bear the responsibility!"

"Don't worry, son, leave this matter to me!"

"Very good, then I'll leave it to you! The second thing, after the completion of the manufacture of these bamboo guns, the ironworks will officially start operation!"

Yang Tiexin stared, and said, "Master, are you joking? Where did we get iron?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he reacted instantly and said in shock: "Could it be that the young master is planning to mine the iron ore on Niubei Mountain?" '

"Not bad! I have been preparing for a year, and the time is almost ripe! You always arrange the manpower. If it is not enough, you can ask the old village chief for help and divide the villagers into three parts. One part will continue to manufacture ammunition and guns, and the other part will be used for farming. Take some of them to Niubei Mountain to open up wasteland, and find a place on the mountainside to build a camp! When will the iron ore mining start, wait for my final notice!"

Lin Yun didn't want to wait any longer, and also understood that as the strength of Niubei Village gradually increased, it would be very difficult for him to continue to hide under the eyes of the Lin family without a trace.

Therefore, he must act as soon as possible, a race against time.

When he got home, Lin Yun sat down on the chair in the living room.

At this time, Lin Wuyue came over and said, "Hey, Mr. Xiang, what are you doing here?"

Lin Yun looked around strangely, and said, "What? I shouldn't have come back?"

Lin Wuyue rolled her eyes and said: "Xuemeng has been waiting for you in the bedroom for a long time, and you don't know it?"

Lin Yun smiled bitterly, stood up and said, "Madam, to be honest, are you really not angry at all?"
