Li Yuyan snorted coldly and ignored him, but said to Lin Xiao:
"Their identity as bandits is probably not something that the village chief alone can clear their name for. I'm going to the Kyushu Courtyard, and the general happens to be here. It should be no problem to ask him to help."
After saying that, Li Yuyan left directly without waiting for Lin Xiao to speak.
After Li Yuyan left, Lin Xiao said to Gao Jin:
"It's still early now. After everyone has filled their stomachs, I will take you to the place where I plan to open the workshop. Let's decide on the place to stay first!"
"No problem! I'll listen to you, brother!"
Gao Jin patted his chest and promised, feeling full of confidence in the future.
In a short while, Lan Lian, who was quick with her hands and feet, had prepared meals for twenty or thirty people.
Everyone's eyes were shining when they looked at the snow-white rice and the table full of meat and vegetables!
Even when they went down the mountain to rob, they would not be able to eat such sumptuous meals.
But now that they have such an opportunity to eat it, how can they not be excited!
"Come on, everyone, sit down and eat. Don't be restrained. Eat freely and be satisfied!"
Lin Xiao invited everyone to sit down, while she sat in the main seat.
This is the rule of the Daxia Dynasty. Guests cannot sit down until the host is seated. Guests can only sit down when the host sits down.
There is only one dining table in Lin Xiao's home, which can only seat eight people at full capacity.
Others can only eat standing up.
However, they did not complain at all, but squatted in the yard consciously with bowls full of food, and took big mouthfuls of the food in the bowls.
This scene hit the softest part of Lin Xiao's heart. Her nose was slightly sour and she almost shed tears.
She has not enjoyed the love of her parents since she was a child, and her neighbors have provided her with daily care.
Although those neighbors were not rich, at least they did not treat her badly.
She always wanted to repay her neighbors for their help, but unexpectedly she traveled to the Great Xia Dynasty.
"Everyone has enough to eat and drink, there is enough food!"
Lin Xiao shouted with a smile.
After hearing this, everyone raised their heads one after another with bright smiles on their faces. Their expressions were all sincere and happy.
Yu Xilin obviously didn't understand why Lin Xiao wanted to bring these bandits down the mountain and provide them with jobs.
In his concept, bandits are like dogs who cannot change their ways of eating shit, and there is absolutely no way they will turn around!
The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, so he simply pulled Lin Xiao into the backyard and asked:
"Xiao Linzi, do you really believe that they will wash their hands in a golden basin?"
"They are different from other bandits. They were originally honest farmers, but they were oppressed by heavy taxes and had no choice but to embark on this road."
"But……"
Yu Xilin still wanted to dissuade him, but Lin Xiao had already interrupted him.
"I just happen to be short of manpower for making and selling salt, so they are the perfect fit!"
Lin Xiao said it very easily.
"Okay then, you have to be careful about everything and keep an eye out!"
Yu Xilin knew that his persuasion was of no use, so he could only give a few words of advice.
"Well, I'll pay attention!"
Lin Xiao responded.
She understands this truth better than anyone that you must not have the intention to harm others, and that you must have the intention to guard against others!
After the meal, Lin Xiao took Gao Jin and others to the bottom of the abyss where she originally discovered the rock salt.
After several months of mining by the villagers, a small cave has been excavated here.
The terrain at the bottom of the abyss is flat, with towering peaks blocking the back, and a river flowing slowly not far in front.
"How is this place?"
Lin Xiao asked Gao Jindao.
“With mountains and rivers, it’s very suitable for starting a factory!”
Gao Jin nodded. The terrain here was excellent and he was very satisfied.
"In that case, let's get started!"
Following Lin Xiao's order, Gao Jin led all the bandits and began to get busy in the valley.
Those who cut down trees cut down trees, and those who dug foundations dug foundations. They were busy and full of joy!
"Lin Xiao, brother, I really thank you. If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't be able to eat such delicious food, especially the fragrant rice. I have been dreaming about it since I traveled through time."
Gao Jin said to Lin Xiao while working, his gratitude to Lin Xiao was beyond words.
Lin Xiao laughed after hearing this and said:
"What's the point? Let's work hard. From now on, we'll have hot and spicy food at our fingertips, right?"
"I envy you, buddy. You have traveled through time. Look at you. You are better dressed than me. You also have a wife and two concubines. You are more blessed than everyone else."
Gao Jin's face was full of envy.
Although Lin Xiao's wife and two concubines were average except for Han Ruoshui who was pretty, they were still better than nothing!
His wife and children are on the hot bed, this is Gao Jin's heart's desire.
It's a pity that it didn't come true before I traveled through time, so I can only pin my hopes on this life!
"My blessing... is unnecessary! How about I give it to you?"
Lin Xiao joked with a bitter smile.
If possible, she really doesn't want this so-called one wife and two concubines.
She just wants to work hard to make money and become well-off, and then develop hybrid rice so that people can eat sweet, soft and glutinous white rice.
"Forget it!"
Gao Jin waved his hand and said, "Brother, I'm not greedy either. I just want to be able to have enough food and clothing in the future!"
While Lin Xiao and others were working on the new workshop, Lin Xiaowu and Yu Xilin couldn't sit still after learning the truth.
The two of them and Aunt Wu went straight to the widowed aunt's house, vowing to seek an explanation from Lin Da.
Lin Da learned that Lin Xiao was not only unscathed, but also persuaded the bandits to surrender and brought them down the mountain.
He was so frightened that he didn't even want his own mother, and hurriedly hid in the deep mountains and old forests.
He knew very well what the consequences would be if the village chief and villagers found out about this matter.
Wang Le is a good example.
"You widow, call your son out quickly and give us an explanation!"
Aunt Wu looked at the widowed aunt and snorted coldly.
The widowed aunt did not show any weakness and replied calmly:
"he is not at home!"
"not at home?"
Aunt Wu raised her eyebrows, raised her voice a little higher, and asked:
"Where did he go when he wasn't at home?"
"have no idea!"
The widowed aunt replied calmly, with a very tough attitude.
Aunt Wu snorted coldly when she saw this:
"You widow, don't bully others too much! Your great son actually dared to join forces with bandits to kidnap my son. You must give me an explanation for this!"
Aunt Wu was very angry, with an expression that if you don't give me an explanation, don't blame me for being rude to you.
Seeing her arrogant attitude, the widowed aunt was not to be outdone:
"Why don't you just open your mouth to break the promise? Isn't your son standing right next to you?"
“You stinky bitch, you’re still going to be so messy, let’s see if I don’t tear your mouth apart!”
Aunt Wu was so angry that after she finished speaking, she raised her hand and slapped the widowed aunt hard on the face.
The widowed aunt did not hide away, and the two of them struggled with each other, and the situation got out of hand for a time.
If Lin Xiaowu and Yu Xilin hadn't separated them in time, they would have been beaten to a bloody head!
