Chapter 97 Who's the Happiest?

"No, you go to inform, I'll go around." Lin Xuan waved his hand and said.

It's not that he thinks the house is dilapidated, but that Zhouzhuang is in a good location, and his Earl's Mansion may be built here.

The specifics will have to wait for him to read it before deciding.

Zhou Mancang knew that he had nothing to entertain Lin Xuan at home, so he didn't insist. He asked the woman at home to boil some water for Lin Xuan and the others, and then ran out to inform everyone to come and pick up the things.

"Uncle Lin, I'm going to take a look around. When people come, just send them the things. Remember. Send more for the elderly." Lin Xuan ordered.

"I don't know how old the old man is?" Lin Butler asked.

"It counts if you are over 60 years old." Lin Xuan said.

Butler Lin said with some embarrassment: "My lord, there are not many people over 60 years old in Zhouzhuang."

Lin Xuan asked a little strangely: "No? How can there be no old people in such a big village?"

Butler Lin told Lin Xuan that most people live a long life if they can live to more than 50 years old, but not many people can live to 60 years old.Let alone live to 70.

Lin Xuan was stunned, no wonder the ancients said that people in their seventies are rare since ancient times.

In ancient times, medical conditions were poor, coupled with excessive fatigue, and nutrition could not keep up, it would be strange to live a long life.

"If you are over 60 years old, send more. If you don't have any, forget it. Don't leave anything behind, just send it all out." Lin Xuan said with some discomfort.

"Yes, son!" Lin Butler replied.

Leaving some soldiers behind to help Steward Lin distribute things, Lin Xuan took Liu Da and the rest of the people to the north of the village.

When Lin Xuan came here, he came from the south, and he didn't find a place suitable for building a house.

To the north of Zhouzhuang village is a barren hill.

The barren mountain is not high, and the highest one is only a dozen meters.

There is a river several meters wide not far away. Lin Xuan saw that the water is not small.

Lin Xuan was very satisfied. If he built a house in this place, at least the tigers raised at home would have a place to go.

He can't keep the tiger at home every day.

There is a large open space between Zhouzhuang and the barren hills, which is not suitable for farming because there are many stones in the field.

But it is enough to build a house.

Lin Xuan estimated that it was about [-] mu.

Although according to his title, the house can be built as long as it is no larger than [-] mu, but he didn't plan to build it that big.

There are only four members of the Lin family. Even if he gets married and has children in the future, the [-]-acre house is big enough for his family.

After taking a closer look, Lin Xuan took Liu Da and the others back, and he had to go home and discuss this matter with his parents.

When Lin Xuan returned to the village, he saw many people surrounded by Zhou Mancang's house.

These people were all smiling and lined up. Butler Lin was distributing things to them.

There are more than 500 people in Zhouzhuang, of course it is impossible for all of them to come.

Each family sends a representative to collect it. There are several members in their family, and they are all registered, so they are not afraid of false claims.

Lin Xuan took Liu Da and the others to help.The villagers who received the things all smiled and were very grateful.

These things are nothing in Lin Xuan's eyes, but they can live a good year for them.

Lin Xuan heaved a sigh of relief after everyone received it. He was really tired.

After the villagers had left, Lin Xuan found Zhou Mancang and said, "Zhou Lizheng, you should inform the villagers later that you can pay only thirty percent for rent."

"This..." Zhou Mancang looked at Lin Xuan with some hesitation, he didn't know if Lin Xuan could make the decision.

"I've already told my father, and he agreed." Lin Xuan explained.

Zhou Mancang was overjoyed and said gratefully: "Thank you uncle, uncle is kind."

Lin Xuan waved his hand and said, "I'll go back first."

"Uncle, wait a moment. I'll ask my mother-in-law to cook right away. How can I go back with an empty stomach?" Zhou Mancang asked to stay.

He heard that rich people eat three meals a day.

"No, I have something to do when I go back." Lin Xuan shook his head and said.

The village is so poor, how could he have the nerve to stay there for dinner? If there were so many of them, if they stayed at Zhou Mancang's house for dinner, they would have eaten all the food given to him.

Although he can also give Zhou Mancang some money, what if Zhou Mancang doesn't accept it?
The best way is to go straight back.

Zhou Mancang said regretfully: "Since Uncle has something to do, the old man will not delay Uncle."

Without those things, it only took half an hour to go back.

As soon as Lin Xuan arrived home, the concierge came up and said, "My lord, some young masters are here, and the master is entertaining in the lobby. I want you to go there as soon as you come back."

"Okay, I'll be there right away." Lin Xuan nodded and said.

As soon as he guessed, he knew it should be Cheng Chumo and the others.

But it's almost noon, why are they running here?

Lin Xuan came to the hall to take a look, and it was indeed them.

Seeing Lin Xuan's return, Lin Dongyang said with a smile: "Xuan'er is back, you can talk, I won't bother you."

"Uncle Lin, go slowly!" Cheng Chumo and the others hurriedly got up to see him off.

After Lin Dongyang left, Lin Xuan said with a smile: "Why did you come here? You shouldn't be here to eat?"

Cheng Chumo ignored Lin Xuan's teasing, and said excitedly, "We found it."

Lin Xuan asked with some uncertainty: "Are you talking about news about Lin Yiguo?"

Cheng Chumo said proudly: "Of course, we not only found the news about Lin Yiguo, but also brought the map."

"Bring it to me to see!" Lin Xuan said excitedly.

Cheng Chumo took out the map and handed it over.

Lin Xuan unfolded the map and looked at it carefully.

"Just tell me that Lin Yiguo is close to Datang." Lin Xuan said with some embarrassment.

He forgot that he didn't know the ancient place names, and it was useless to look at them.

"That Linyi country borders Lingnan, and it's very close from Lingnan, but I've heard people say that that country is very small, does it really have the rice that you said can be harvested twice a year?" Cheng Chumo said suspiciously.

Lingnan?

Isn't it the area of ​​Guangdong and Guangxi in later generations?

"Although Lin Yiguo is small, it does have two crops of rice. You don't have to doubt this. What you need to think about now is how to get the seeds back." Lin Xuan said.

Qin Huaidao said: "That place is Geng Guogong's domain, and this matter is very difficult."

"It's really difficult!" Lin Xuan mused.

Geng Guogong Feng An, although he is the Duke of the state, is known as the King of Lingnan.

It can be said that people in Lingnan do not know who the emperor is, but there is no one who does not know Feng An.

Although Feng An sent his son to Chang'an as a proton because of Li Shimin's suspicion a few years ago.

But no one could tell what he was thinking.

But Lin Xuan knew that Feng An did not rebel in history.

"Well, let's report this matter to His Majesty and let His Majesty handle it!" Lin Xuan thought for a while and said.

Feng An had monolithically managed Lingnan, and it was really difficult for them to send people there hastily.

"Will His Majesty send someone there?" Cheng Chumo asked in surprise.

Lin Xuan said angrily: "Why not, do you know who is the happiest when this grain is brought back?"

"Of course it's us, we can make wine with food!" Cheng Chumo said as a matter of course.
