After all, they are all the folks who have lived together in the land for generations, Lin Ran can't just watch the nearby folks starving.
But he acted like he didn't see it.
Such a thing, for Lin Ran who received higher education, he really couldn't do it.
Lin Ran asked the old village head Lin Zhengliang to lead the way, and first went to the home of Meng Xianzhang, the head of Mengjia Village.
The reason for letting the old village chief lead the way is because we are familiar with each other, and it is easy to start a topic. I am a young boy of one year old, so it is strange that others believe your words.
"Mr. Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time. What kind of wind has brought you here, and there is no food for our guests in Mengjia Village."
Meng Xianchang is a straightforward person, and he never beats around the bush when things happen.
A character just like his father, old man Meng.
"Meng Village Chief, I am not the village chief anymore, this young man is the village chief of our Linjia Village. He is a child of Chint. I know that your Mengjia Village is out of food, so this is not here to discuss food with you. Yet?"
"It turned out to be a child of Doctor Lin's family. Come and sit in the room. My old man has been taken care of by Doctor Lin a lot, and I always remember it in my heart."
Meng Xianchang enthusiastically let Lin Zhengliang and Lin Ran into the house, and poured water on it.
"Brother Zhengliang, what did you say just now about negotiating food for me? Did I hear you right?"
After Lin Zhengliang and Lin Ran sat down, Meng Xianchang asked in puzzlement.
"You heard me right, the two of us are here today to discuss this matter. You see, this year's crops are all destroyed by the locusts, and the seeds have not even been recovered. God will not give people a way to survive..."
"Yes, our Mengjia Village is now waiting for relief from the imperial court. If the imperial court does not provide relief, the entire village will have to flee within half a month, and most of the villagers will go out to flee the famine."
Meng Xianchang responded truthfully, his words were full of helplessness and bitterness.
"Uncle Meng, this junior wants to rent all the idle land in Mengjia Village, what price do you think is suitable?"
Lin Ran decided not to beat around the bush, but to be straightforward and come faster.
"What? Nephew, have you thought about it? This land has been abandoned this year, and it's useless for you to rent it."
Not only was Meng Xianchang not ecstatic when he heard the words, but he comforted him kindly.
Lin Ran knew that Village Chief Meng was definitely a trustworthy and good person, and it was rare to find a person who could still maintain an upright conscience in the face of interests.
"Uncle Meng, this junior has thought it over clearly. It doesn't matter whether you want food or money settlement. For the specific details and price, please tell Uncle Zhengliang in detail. I still have something to do in the village, so I won't bother you."
After speaking, Lin Ran stood up and bowed to leave.
Meng Xianchang sent Lin Ran out of the gate all the way before returning to the house.
When he came, Lin Ran had already told the old village chief that the price could fluctuate within a certain range, so that the villagers could not be too disadvantaged, and of course the price could not be the same as the land in Linjiacun.

"Meng Village Chief, I'm telling you the truth. Although the locust plague is so severe this year, not only has our Lin Family Village not been affected at all, but we've also made a fortune."
When Lin Zhengliang said these words, the wrinkles on his face were more brilliant than roses...
"I heard this some time ago. Your villagers have caught locusts and sold them for a lot of money. Our village has also made a small harvest. They were taken away by your Linjia Village. The price is very high. If it weren't for the locusts sold for a few dollars Ah, how can it persist until now? But brother Zhengliang said that the fields in your Lin Family Village will not be affected in any way, I can’t believe it no matter what.”
"I know you can't believe it, let's see what this is?"
After speaking, Lin Zhengliang took out a fist-sized potato from his sleeve and placed it in front of Meng Xianchang.
"This is? What is this?"
Meng Xianchang picked up the potatoes and observed them carefully, not knowing why for a long time.
"This is food that grows underground, so this locust plague has no impact on our Linjia Village."
"Food that grows underground? Why haven't I seen it before?"
"It's amazing to say that this is a gift from God. When Lin Ran's child fell off the cliff this spring, God bestowed it on him. Now the land rented in your Mengjia Village is to plant a large number of potatoes. Lin Ran's child said that they are all from the village. Yes, I can't watch you hungry, at least you must ensure that the folks can fill your stomach..."
"I didn't expect Dr. Lin's children to be so warm-hearted. This matter is done. As long as the villagers of Mengjia Village can have a meal, it doesn't matter whether the rent is not really important."
"That won't work. Our village chief can say that rent is rent, and the rations of the villagers cannot be confused with rations."
"Okay, everything will be done according to Brother Zhengliang's wishes. I will inform the folks of this great news, and the folks in the province are going to leave home to flee famine."
"Your Majesty, even if this auspicious auspiciousness can solve the hunger of the people and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, there is still one biggest problem that bothers us. How can we solve it?"
Cheng Yaojin touched his head and said worriedly.
"Haha, haha, Zhijie is talking about the problem of salt, right?"
His Majesty Li Er responded without worry and joy when he heard the words.
"Your Majesty, it is the problem of salt. Now the soldiers are extremely short of salt in the army. Many soldiers' bodies are beginning to swell. Without salt intake, people will have no strength... Without strength, how can the soldiers pick up the horizontal bar?" What about fighting the enemy with a sword? Your Majesty, this is the biggest problem that plagues our army right now."
"Yes, Your Majesty, what Su Guogong said is very true. The last general will wait for his second opinion."
Yuchi Jingde, Qin Qiong, Niu Jinda and several other generals came out of the squad and echoed.
"I am deeply moved by how the generals cherish the soldiers. Now I can tell the generals that the days when the army and the people lacked salt will soon be gone..."
"Your Majesty, is this true?"
Zuo Wuwei General Cheng Yaojin's eyes were so wide that he almost slipped out, with an expression that he couldn't believe it even if he was beaten to death.
"Zhijie, take a few steps forward. See what is in my hand?"
His Majesty Li Er looked at Cheng Yaojin with a suspicious expression and said with a smile.
"Follow His Majesty's orders."
General Cheng Yaojin of Zuowuwei stepped forward a few steps after hearing the words, and stopped five steps away from His Majesty Li Er, when suddenly his eyes shone unbelievably bright.
It was as bright and gorgeous as a shooting star in the dark night streaking across the night sky.
"Your Majesty, is this refined salt? Why is it so crystal clear, like that snowflake?"
Cheng Yaojin looked like a ghost, he had refined salt in the Duke's residence, but it was definitely not of the same grade and level as the refined salt in the hands of His Majesty Li Er.
Obviously, the refined salt in the hands of His Majesty Li Er is much better.
"What Zhijie saw was indeed refined salt. As for why it is so crystal clear, like that snowflake, it is because the refined salt has been filtered multiple times, and the impurities in it have been filtered out, and the rest is naturally like this snowflake. Same fine salt."
His Majesty Li Er is like an expert at the level of a salt-making master, talking eloquently above the Xiande Hall...
The civil and military officials are like three good students, and they look like they are listening to the class and studying hard.
What's more, the eyes looking at His Majesty Li Er exuded a strange color.
Even if they were beaten to death, they couldn't understand why His Majesty became so knowledgeable and versatile today?
Even the method of making salt can be eloquently explained, which shocked all civil and military officials beyond words.
At the same time, the admiration for His Majesty Li Er is like the water of the Yangtze River endlessly rising...
"Your Majesty, you have been talking for a long time, but I didn't understand. Your purification method is good, but it is only based on the existing salt, and it cannot solve the plight of the army and the people's shortage of salt... ··”
Cheng Yaojin's words awakened all the ministers.
Yes, the method of purification is good, but the more purified it is, the less salt there will be. It is better not to purify.
So the civil and military officials above the court began to whisper to each other, expressing their own views and opinions on this.
His Majesty Li Er didn't feel angry at all when he saw the ministers who were whispering to each other.
He smiled and said calmly.
"Zhijie, I will tell you this method of extracting table salt. What is purified is not the table salt we eat now, but the river salt and mineral salt on the river beach and ore..."
As soon as His Majesty Li Er's words fell to the ground, several "thump, plop" sounds were heard above the court hall.
Several ministers were stunned by His Majesty Li Er's words on the spot, and they were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground...
Oh my god, what did we hear just now?
River salt on the beach?
Mineral salt on ore?
This is poisonous salt that can kill good people, and now His Majesty is saying that he wants to purify these poisonous salts into refined salt...
It was thanks to His Majesty Li Er that he said it himself. If you try it with another person and say it, you are guaranteed to be drowned by the saliva of the ministers.
"Your Majesty, be careful..."
Wei Zheng, the royal historian, came out of the class to play.
As the royal censor of the current dynasty, Wei Zheng felt responsible and obliged to stop His Majesty Li Er from continuing to make irresponsible remarks at this time.
"Wei Aiqing, everything I said is true, how can I be careful when I say it?"
His Majesty Li Er looked at Wei Zheng with a smile and said.
That calm and relaxed look made all the civil and military officials feel a little bit.
This time, His Majesty may be telling the truth...

Speak from your heart!
The book is on the shelves for the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival.
I am very grateful to Mr. Huya, the editor in charge, for his recommendation and guidance along the way.
From popular serialization, selected clients for new books, strong recommendations by category, recommended clients by the editor, to the current six-channel homepage.
Teacher Huya recommended this book constantly all the way, and helped me revise the introduction and title very responsibly.
After I advanced to the classification and strongly recommended the recommendation position, I applied for listing without knowing the recommendation rules.
Teacher Huya stopped my impulsive behavior in time. If it was put on the shelves at that time, there would be less than [-] favorites. It is conceivable that the final result will be very dismal.
Until this book has another client recommended by the editor, and now it is recommended by the six channels on the homepage, and now it has reached more than [-] favorites.
In the afternoon, Mr. Huya notified that it will be available on National Day.
Here, I sincerely say thank you to Mr. Huya.
Writing a book is not easy, but meeting a good editor is even more difficult!
Next, I would like to thank the readers of the main website and the book friends of qq.
You are very helpful. From the beginning of the book with more than a dozen recommendation tickets on the main website every day to today’s nearly 200 recommendation tickets every day, it is everyone’s love and support for the book. Even.
I've never missed a day, and that's something I'm proud of.
The readers of qq are very powerful. Mr. Huya said that the follow-up data over there is better than that of the main website.
It can be seen from the recommendation votes. Now there are more than 300 recommendation votes every day, and the book friends are very active.
There are many book friends urging the update, and I feel warm when I see it.
Being urged by others proves that what I wrote is worthy of recognition.
In order to repay the love and support of book friends.
It also coincides with the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival double festivals, which is really a day worthy of joy and celebration.
The author decided to release all the saved manuscripts at once, and there are still many book friends waiting for this book after midnight.
Every time it is updated at 12 o'clock, there will be a steady stream of information about recommended tickets.
Tonight the author promises to release all the archived manuscripts at once.
The [-]-word manuscript will be released at one time, for everyone to enjoy watching during the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival.
The author has worked hard, and I hope that book friends will do the same.
Recommendation tickets, monthly tickets, rewards and so on, feel free to throw them at the author!
It doesn't matter if you smash your head to pieces!
The author also knows that some people will definitely leave this book and fall into the embrace of pirated editions.
Although it is a pity and helpless, the author is powerless to change anything.
I sincerely hope that everyone will support the genuine version and the author.
Under the current new welfare system, without everyone's support and subscriptions, a book can easily be cut in half after three months.
This is not alarmist!
