Maid, Little Lucky Wife

Chapter 84 Gambling

Lingyi and the others came back three days later, together with everyone in Xiaowang Village.

Everyone is carrying a lot of potatoes behind them.

"Master, all the potatoes in the nearby mountains have been harvested. There are about 1500 kilograms of them, not including those for Xiaowang Village and the others."

Mo Xuan nodded, "Thank you for your hard work. Let's take a rest first. It's time for us to set off."

Ling Yi obeyed the order and went down.

The old man came over and asked, "Sir, do you want to plant these potatoes in Li County?"

The disaster in Li County is not small.

"Yes."

Mo Xuan didn't hide anything and said directly.

"But how to solve the problem of land shortage? How to solve the problem of water source."

As expected of an old farmer, he got to the point immediately.

Mo Xuan laughed confidently, "Haha, I have a way."

The old man obviously didn't believe it. The land problem had not been solved for many generations. In the end, he had to move away. What was left was just a group of nostalgic people who were unwilling to leave their homeland.

A young junior actually said that he could solve it himself. Haha, I don't know whether to call him arrogant or arrogant.

Seeing the displeasure in the old man's eyes, Mo Xuan pulled the old man and pointed to a barren mountain in front of him.

Show the old man the terrace plan that Mo Xuan and Yun Shang mentioned that day.

"...This alone can solve the problem of scarcity of land and water storage."

The old man's eyes lit up, it was indeed a good idea, "I admit that your method is indeed the most suitable for the local area, but there is still a big problem, how to lead the water up the mountain? Do you still have magical powers? Can you make the water flow back?"

Mo Xuan suddenly laughed, "Old man, how can there be any gods in the world? If there are gods, why are they willing to suffer in the world? I would have solved it myself."

The old man nodded, knowing in his heart that he was delusional.

"Then tell me how to solve it?"

"There are always ways. We can build water storage stations before floods come to store all the water and solve part of the water problem."

"Of course, this will depend on local conditions, and we need to conduct on-site inspections to see if there is a place suitable for building a water storage station."

"There is also a problem of diverting water up the mountain. I really can't do anything about it for the time being."

Hearing Mo Xuan's admission, the old man felt a little disappointed.

"However, there are always more solutions than difficulties, right? Even the problem of lack of water storage in the land can be solved. Can't you think of other ways?"

Yes, there are always more solutions than difficulties. If someone makes empty talk, I won’t believe it at all.

But this is a natural sandbox, and all the problems are exposed. Is there really no way to solve it?

No, there must be. There are so many wise men in the world, and someone will always think of it. Maybe Mr. Mo in front of him is one of them.

The old man felt respect in his heart and looked at Mo Xuan seriously.

"However, the change of land requires the permission of the court, or if you buy it, do you have any silver?"

The only thing he could think of was buying. How much could a person buy with limited financial resources?

The old man felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

Mo Xuan smiled proudly, "I don't need to buy it. I can use all this land. Can I trust you?"

The old man looked at him with strange eyes. Just now he thought he was a nice guy and a stable young man, so he started bragging again.

The old man sighed and shook his head with a smile. The older he got, the more he went back. How could he believe the words of the person in front of him?

"I don't believe it, old man?"

Mo Xuan's attitude towards the old man was completely expected.

"Old man, can you make a bet with me?"

"What are you gambling?"

The old man also became interested and asked.

"If I can use these lands, can you, Xiaowang Village, come back with me?"

The old man thought for a moment. Those previous plans required a lot of manpower. He couldn't help but laugh. This person was waiting for him here!

Looking at the surrounding mountains, thinking that I could turn them into fertile land myself, a surge of pride surged out, and I was instantly filled with pride.

"Okay, I'll make a bet with you."

"Then tell me, what will you do if you lose?"

"If we lose, I am willing to offer a thousand taels of silver for the resettlement of Xiaowang Village."

One...1000 taels?

The old man's heart was beating wildly. He had never seen so much money in his life.

Seeing that Mo Xuan's expression didn't look like he was faking it, the old man took a big gamble and took a gamble.

"Okay, let's make a bet then. I want to see what kind of path you can make."

Yun Shang watched the two of them bet, covered her mouth and laughed secretly. Her husband is so bad, isn't this a direct act of prostitution?Still willing.

Mo Xuan sent someone to the car to bring out a few things. The packages were so bulging that they couldn't be seen.

Mo Xuan opened the package, and the old man looked over curiously. When he saw what was inside, he opened his mouth in surprise.

"You... who are you?"

Yun Shang said with a smile, "My husband is the magistrate of Li County."

The corner of Mo Xuan's mouth raised, "Yes, even though my official position is smaller, I still have the right to use the land in Li County!"

The old man couldn't help but believe in the brand-new county magistrate's official uniform, official boots, and official seal.

He stared, his chest heaving.

"You...are you really the county magistrate?"

His voice trembled slightly, and his lips trembled with excitement.

Seeing Mo Xuan nodding, the old man stood up suddenly and was about to kneel down. Mo Xuan quickly held him back with quick eyes and hands, "Old man, you can't do it."

The old man had tears in his eyes and wanted to kneel down several times.

"Old man, please don't embarrass me. I don't want to reveal my identity for the time being."

Mo Xuan smiled bitterly and said that this time it was too serious, he just wanted to play a prank.

The old man held Mo Xuan's hand with trembling hands, and burst into tears for a moment, "Li County can be saved, it can be saved."

Why do older people want to leave their hometown?Now that I have the opportunity to rebuild my home and have enough to eat without killing anyone, I am naturally very excited.

He took a deep breath, and his body that was originally a little rickety straightened.

Mo Xuan suddenly felt that the person in front of him was different, with more energy and hope.

"Sir, on behalf of Xiaowang Village, I welcome you. Let's go back home and help you build a water storage station."

He had thought about it, and even if it didn't work out, they would accept it.

This is someone who does big things.

Mo Xuan didn't know yet that the old man's respect for him had reached a new level, but if these people were willing to believe him and follow him back, that was half the battle.

This man has hope and motivation. Although he still looks like an old man, his mentality is different and he is full of fighting spirit.

The old man returned to the team and didn't know what he said. The people in Xiaowang Village looked at Mo Xuan Yunshang with more awe.

The number of people has increased, and many of them are walking, so naturally they are not that fast.

Mo Xuan chatted a lot with the old man along the way, discussing and coming up with an improvement plan for every mountain, every river, and every inch of land.

Until Mo Xuan's ideas became more and more mature, he could come up with feasible solutions for every terrain.

The two felt that their trip was worthwhile, and they even regretted meeting each other so late.

Mo Xuan admires the old man who is a farmer but has a high level of knowledge. The old man likes Mo Xuan's down-to-earth, humble and eager-to-learn attitude.
