Space at hand: Pick up a prince to farm

Chapter 424 Living in the suburbs

One sentence struck their hearts.

But don’t people who have been growing crops all their lives deserve to live in the city?

Everyone's expressions became subtle at this moment.

Lin Maofeng could feel it, but he didn't rush to explain. Instead, he waited for them to continue thinking. If they really couldn't figure it out, he wouldn't be too late to tell them.

When the villagers of Beiguan Village looked at the two- and three-story houses around them, they couldn't hide their expectant eyes.

This has been their dream for generations. If possible, who wouldn't want to live in the city? Now such an opportunity is in front of them. Is it because they were country people before that they have to give up now?
Some people in the crowd were already starting to get restless.

Such movement also attracted the attention of Cang Xiuxuan's subordinates. Those who originally wanted to take action suddenly became quiet after seeing Cang Xiuxuan's subordinates.

Although they were very polite along the way, they felt very fearful every time they saw their expressionless faces and swords.

This fear has been deeply imprinted in their hearts.

So much so that whenever I see them now, I will instinctively feel fear in my heart.

They didn't understand what Lin Maofeng meant at all. Lin Maofeng was somewhat disappointed, so since he couldn't figure it out, he would explain it to them.

“I’m not saying that we don’t deserve to live in the city, but I’m asking you fellow villagers to think about what the people we saw living in the city do for a living.”

These words were like a thunderclap in everyone's ears.

Yes, people living in the city are all rich people.

Although they were in good condition compared to the villagers in several other villages when they were in Beiguan Village, they were nothing compared to those living in the city.

The family's total net worth does not exceed 20 taels at most. They are not sitting on nothing and coming to a brand new place. If they save this little money, they can finish it in almost a year. What should they do at that time?

"We all know that these people living in the city are either well-off or in business. It's not that I look down on you, but this is our situation now. We have no family and can't do business. We stay in the city. It’s difficult to maintain life here, have you ever thought about the future?”

Lin Maofeng made it clear, and everyone who had only thought about it at first also understood it.

"It's exactly what you said. We will open up wasteland ourselves. This requires building our own house and daily expenses. We don't have so much money to spend."

"I don't know if I need to pay money to open up wasteland here. If I need to pay money, it won't cost much."

"By the way, Li Zheng, if we live in the city, the Song family's workshop won't be able to work with us."

Someone thought of another important question.

As soon as this question was asked, many people were slapping their thighs, "That's right. Why didn't I think of this problem before? If there is no work in the workshop and no land, what will happen in the future?" Pass……"

"..."

Lin Maofeng did not miss any of their questions.

"This is what I was thinking about before. Firstly, we cannot do business in the city, and secondly, we have no financial resources. It is impossible for the Song family's workshop to be established in the city. After all, it is not convenient to open these workshops in the city. As for the land reclamation that everyone talks about There should be no problem. Since this is a city, there will definitely be places on the outskirts of the city, and we can choose a place on the outskirts of the city."

"That's right! Why didn't you think of coming here before?"

Some people slapped themselves on the head, and they forgot such an important thing. "Li Zheng, then hurry up and ask those people if there are any houses built on the outskirts of the city, or ask where the Song family's workshop was located. Why don't we just continue to follow the Song family's workshop. "

"I agree. Let's follow the Song family's workshop."

"We're all for it."

Lin Maofeng raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, "That's what I think, so I'll ask everyone first. In fact, the suburbs are more comfortable for us. As farmers, we only feel at ease when we have land in our hands."

This sentence is not false at all. It is said that if you have food in your hand, you will not panic. This food is also grown in the ground.

Land is the foundation for their farmers to live and work, and they cannot live without land.

"You guys wait here first, I'll go ask them first."

Lin Maofeng walked towards those people step by step, and the villagers looked at him eagerly. The life in the city that they had been looking forward to was no longer pleasant at all.

Lin Maofeng didn't mince words after he passed by.

"We discussed it and found that we are all from the village and still want to live in the suburbs. We just don't know if there are houses available in the suburbs. After all, our family is not well-off and we might not be able to build a house by ourselves."

This is not shameful, and Lin Maofeng has nothing bad to say.

Those few people seemed to know that they would make such a decision. They laughed when they heard Lin Maofeng say this, "Miss Song's guess is indeed right. Since you have decided, I will take you over now to take a look. I'm interested in it." You guys live over there, if you don’t like it... just tell me."

Before they came, Song Chen asked Cang Xiuxuan for a map and clarified the layout of the city. After looking around, Song Chen did not find a suitable place for them to live, and finally saw the suburbs of the city.

Song Chen was a little surprised when he saw the house.

Cang Xiuxuan later told her that the place was built according to what Song Chen said before.

It turns out that Song Chen and Cang Xiuxuan had talked about their plans before when they had a casual chat. They planned to re-plan Beiguan Village in the future so that everyone could live together and separate the residential area from the production area.

After hearing this, Cang Xiuxuan thought this was a great idea, so he took this into consideration when planning the new city, and thus several villages and villages were created on the outskirts of the new city.

Needless to say, Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city was naturally reserved for Song Chen.

But those villages can let them choose.

Lin Maofeng was stunned for a moment and then smiled, "Then I'll bother you."

"Li Zheng is very polite. Go and talk to them. It's about ten miles away, and everyone needs to work harder."

Lin Maofeng waved his hands repeatedly, "It's not hard, it's not hard. I'll go tell them and they can go out right away."

When everyone saw Lin Maofeng coming back with a smile, they knew that the matter was done.

"What, Li Zheng, is it done? Will they help us build a house?"

"What did they say?"
