Happy peasant girl

Chapter 139 Persuading the Patriarch (3)
"Xi girl, what do you mean by that?" Lin Renyi, Lin Ren and the others didn't understand.

"Grandpa patriarch, if you and the elders want our Lin clan to be rich in the world, then I will teach the people in the clan the way of doing business that I have learned, so that they can all learn to do business and make a gold and silver fortune. If you want our Lin clan members to be seen by outsiders as "both moral and good" written on the plaque bestowed by the emperor, then the method is different." Lin Qingxi said solemnly.

"Girl Xi, there is no conflict between being rich in the world and having virtue and goodness, we can achieve it together!" A clan elder said excitedly.

"No!" Lin Qingxi and Lin Renyi said at the same time.

"Grandpa patriarch, it's up to you!" Lin Qingxi was delighted by Lin Renyi's reaction. It seemed that her plan would be successful.

"Patriarch, why not?" the patriarch asked puzzledly.

"Haven't you heard that 'too greedy is not far from the Temple of Yama'? If our Lin clan has money but no virtue, then outsiders will say that they are full of money, and the status of businessmen is low. But the children of all businessmen are Those who are not allowed to participate in the scientific examination, not to mention, the current emperor has granted the Lin clan a plaque of "both virtue and goodness", how can we violate the holy will, the Shang clan is absolutely indispensable." Silver is certainly indispensable, but it has nothing to do with the real Compared with reputation, Lin Renyi can still tell which one is more important. Besides, the people of the Lin clan are blessed by their ancestors, so there must be some members of the clan who can be named on the gold list and won the holy grace.

"What the patriarch said is that the status of merchants is worse than that of farmers. Since our Lin clan wants to grow, we must have a good reputation. Besides, there are some children in the clan who study hard, so we can't die because of yellow and white things. They have a great future." Lin Renhe also agreed with what Lin Renyi said.

"Girl Xi, tell me what you think, we can't do this business." It is absolutely impossible for Lin Renyi, the patriarch, to agree to the majority of the clan being businessmen.

"Several grandpas know that the four people of the state of Chu are scholars, farmers, businessmen, and both scholars and farmers are in the forefront. Although we peasants do not have businessmen who can make money, our status is not low, and peasant students can also enter the ranks of scholars by studying hard. Furthermore, the people’s land is the most important thing in today’s sages, if we do our duty as farmers, then the top can be a scholar, and the bottom can be rich, this is the real fame and fortune.” Lin Qingxi also does not want to put The members of the Lin clan have all become businessmen who are good at calculating.

"Xi girl, what you said is correct. During this period of time, many people in the clan saw that doing business made money quickly, so they didn't care much about the crops in the field. It is really wrong to think that everything will be fine when you sprinkle beans." Lin Lin Renyi himself was also reflecting on himself. During this period of time, he also thought that the Lin clan would be able to grow stronger with money, but now it seems that may not be the case.

"But our ancestors have been digging food in the fields for generations, and the days are getting harder and harder. The people of the clan can't do anything about it." Linrenhe also knows that what Linqingxi and Linrenyi said is very reasonable, but they have planted it for several lifetimes People who grow crops don't have any money in their hands.

"Grandfather of the clan, although your ancestors have been digging food in the fields for generations, your farming method is wrong. The grandfather of the clan and the elder of the clan should have discovered that during the autumn harvest this year, the grain harvest in my field is the highest in the whole village. Well, the vegetables grown in the field are better than others in the village. The seeds are the same, but the final fruits are different, and the most important thing is the process of planting the land." Lin Qingxi said.

When Lin Renyi and the others were harvesting in the autumn, they did see that the harvest of the old Lin family was better than that of other families. They all had the same seeds and land, but the food they grew was different. This is why they have been wondering .However, they now seem to understand why.

"Girl Xi, how do you want to grow this land?" Since Lin Qingxi raised this question, she should have a way.

"Farming the land is not easy. I learned some ways to increase grain production from my grandfather. My grandfather knows everything now. People in the clan can come to ask him for advice. In addition, our Linjia Village has a lot of land. There are more wastelands. I suggest that the clansmen open up wasteland first, and then turn the wasteland into fertile fields. In addition to growing food, the fields also need to grow vegetables. The food can be eaten, and the vegetables can be sold, so that there is no need to worry about food and drink. The growth of the Lin clan will not happen overnight. Don't be in a hurry!" Lin Qingxi was afraid that Lin Renyi and the others would be eager for quick success, and in this case, good things might turn into bad things.

"But if there are too many lands, can so many vegetables be sold?" Lin Renhe said worriedly.

"Grandfather of the family, you don't have to worry about these things. In fact, I still have one thing that I kept from the elders. I recognized a master more than a year ago. He is the county magistrate of our Fu'an County. I also have a Thinking, after three years of severe drought, what the Chu State lacks most now is food. If our Lin clan has enough food and finds the right time to sell it to the emperor at a low price, then the Lin clan will get more than just food. It's the emperor's praise, and the people all over the world's respect for our Lin clan." Lin Qingxi already knows what the Lin clan's patriarchs and elders want most, so she will help them.

Lin Renyi and the others didn't expect Lin Qingxi to say such words at such a young age, and wanted to make a deal with the emperor. Could it be that the disciples taught by the gods are different?Also, not only is she destined to be a fairy, but she also has a master-student relationship with Lu Zhiming, the magistrate of the detective county. It seems that this little girl is really not simple.

However, Lin Qingxi's words are too tempting, making Lin's clan highly regarded by the current sages, and also praised by the people all over the world. Just imagine such a grand occasion, Lin Renyi and the others will be extremely satisfied.

"Xi girl, is it risky for you to do this? Not to mention, whether our clan can grow food for trading with the emperor, even this kind of land depends on God, and we only have one Shanmei River here. Planting crops will not work without water.” Linyuanshan had to talk about practical problems, if Linqingxi’s words could not be realized by then, then she would not be a lucky star of the Lin clan, but a disaster star who would be blamed by everyone up.

"Grandfather, I also understand what you said. This is just my final thought. I said that the process of farming is very important, and the process of growing the Lin clan is also very important. It may take three years, five years, or It’s 30 or 50 years. If you don’t have enough patience and backfire, you can only fail in the end. I’m just putting forward my own ideas. What you want to do, patriarch, you still have to make up your own mind.” Lin Qingxi did not The habit of taking responsibility, especially for something as big as this.

"What do you all think?" Lin Renyi asked several clan elders.

"I think Miss Xi is quite right. Although our tofu business can earn some money, it is not a long-term solution after all. What's more, we have handed over the secret recipe of tofu to the emperor. If the children and grandchildren of the Lin family rely on Selling tofu to support our family, we are also somewhat ashamed of our ancestors."
