"Lin Yi, Lin Yi, you are indeed the only heir to Beiliang!"
Looking in the direction of the Prefect's Mansion, Zhuo Feifan's eyes flashed with relief. After all, the plans he had planned these days became dimmed under Lin Yi's killing spree.
I did a lot of calculations, but I missed a little bit.
It is true that these people are xenophobic, but compared to the outsider Prince Beiliang, they hate these bandits who make them tremble more, and they hate the major forces that have plunged this place into dire straits, so they gave Lin Yi a breakthrough.
Under the guise of eliminating harm for the people, the prince took the excuse to the extreme and actually killed so many people in one go.
At this moment, Liang Feifan finally recognized the Northern Liang prince in his heart.
Because he was also frightened. As one of the three wealthy families in Xiliang County, there was no need for him to fight against the Northern Liang Crown Prince for a small loss. That was really unwise.
He has plenty of money, so why put himself in danger for such a small profit.
After taking a deep breath, Zhuo Feifan regained his composure and said in a deep voice: "Butler, bring Zhang He up!"
Zhang He was none other than the spy he had beaten out just now, and now he still needed to get some information from him.
These people are strictly trained, and even if they are discovered, they should have received a lot of information.
Zhang He was soon carried in, but his eyes were full of fear, and he didn't even dare to look into Zhuo Feifan's eyes.
"Tell me, what news did you get?" Zhuo Feifan said with a gloomy face.
Zhang He swallowed, endured the severe pain and knelt on the ground, and said bitterly: "Master, more than 30,000 people previously surrounded the prefect's mansion..."
"What?"
Zhuo Feifan's pupils shrank, and 30,000 people surrounded the prefect's mansion. Could it be that the other two wealthy families took action?
That’s 30,000 people!
In Xiliang County, except for the three major wealthy families, no one can provide 30,000 people at once.
He couldn't help but ask: "These thirty thousand people wanted to assassinate the Crown Prince Lin Yi. Did they succeed?"
At this moment, his mind, which had previously cooled down, began to beat rapidly.
Although it is impossible for him to kill Lin Yi, if someone else kills Lin Yi, it has nothing to do with him and is definitely a good thing.
Zhang He's face froze and he said bitterly: "Master, these 30,000 people are not here to kill Lin Yi, but to seek refuge with him."
"Take refuge?"
Zhuo Feifan was immediately dumbfounded. What was going on? Why did 30,000 people join Lin Yi as soon as he came to Xiliang County? This is too outrageous.
He couldn't help gritting his teeth and said: "Explain to me carefully why as soon as Lin Yi came, 30,000 people came to seek refuge!"
Damn it, this is too bullying.
The owner of this village has been running this place for more than ten years, and now there are more than 10,000 people. As soon as Lin Yi came here, 30,000 people came to seek refuge. This is simply too shocking.
Zhang He had a bitter look on his face and had no choice but to bite the bullet and tell what he saw.
As he listened, Zhuo Feifan's face turned dark. In the end, it turned black and green again, indicating that he was doubting his life.
"So now Lin Yi not only has the loyalty of 30,000 people, but he has also become my hope in Xiliang?"
"And what kind of potatoes can produce more than 3,000 jins per mu, with a maximum yield of 8,000 jins?"
Zhuo Feifan almost gritted his teeth and said.
Are you kidding? It has only taken so long for people to support you so much. This is simply too fake.
Even if he was the prince of Northern Liang, he wouldn't be able to do this.
Looking at the owner's eyes, Zhang He swallowed his saliva and whispered: "Not only that, but now there are a group of common people kneeling in the prefect's mansion, trying to plant potatoes."
The yield per acre is three thousand kilograms of potatoes!
A strange flash flashed in Zhuo Feifan's eyes. Is there such a high-yield thing in this world? This is too exaggerated.
If it is true, wouldn't Lin Yi really become the hope of Xiliang County?
He looked at the steward on the side, frowned and said, "Steward, have you ever heard of a yield of three thousand kilograms of potatoes per acre?"
The butler shook his head.
"Master, let alone three thousand kilograms per mu, if you have one thousand kilograms, that is already great. Not to mention this potato that I have never heard of. If it is so powerful, Beiliang will not be short of food.
Bar."
"That makes sense!"
As soon as he said this, Zhuo Feifan's eyes lit up. This statement made sense.
To put it this way, Lin Yi was clearly lying. There were no potatoes at all, and there was no such thing as a yield of three thousand catties per mu. It was just a lie by the Northern Liang prince.
The butler looked at his village owner's eyes and couldn't help but feel something in his heart. He whispered: "Master, should we expose Lin Yi and let him suffer the consequences?"
"Need not!"
Zhuo Feifan shook his head. He hasn't planted it yet. Even if he exposes Lin Yi, he can find a way to deal with it. It's totally meaningless.
He said in a deep voice: "Let our people keep a low profile recently and throw away some of the shady industries. They will come back sooner or later anyway."
"My subordinate understands!"
"In addition, send someone to inform you to fully impeach the Northern Liang Crown Prince for killing innocent people indiscriminately. As for the reasons, you can just make them up."
If he takes action now, it is very likely that Lin Yi will take advantage of it, so he will not be so stupid. But since the yield per mu is three thousand kilograms, he may be able to do something.
.......
[Thirty thousand people came to vote, and the Crown Prince became the hope of Xiliang. 】
[The yield per mu of sweet potatoes is 3,000 jins, and the maximum yield is 8,000 jins of potatoes.]
[Kill Zhuo Feifan's spies and warn Zhuo Feifan]
These news spread quickly, and the common people could no longer sit still and came towards the prefect's mansion one after another.
For them, other news is not important, only this high-yielding sweet potato and potato makes them unable to turn a blind eye.
Although they were a little suspicious, the people were not stupid. They also knew that Lin Yi's words were true. As the prince of Beiliang, he would not deceive his own people. After all, paper cannot cover the fire.
If there is no clue, even the prince would not dare to fool the people. The only possibility is that this thing is true.
The crown prince really received the favor of the gods and got high-yielding crops.
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but get excited. If this is really the case, Xiliang County may really have hope!
"If it's true, then our whole family won't have to go hungry!"
"The prince is the future King of Northern Liang. How could he lie to us? He doesn't need to do this at all."
"It's just that we are too poor to afford food, so what else can we lie to?"
"The Crown Prince is kind-hearted. It is said that he will choose a pilot among us to test the habits of potatoes and sweet potatoes. We must win this time."
"Hahaha, I am a famous farming master in Xiliang, and I must fight for this opportunity for our village."
"Huh, I'm not a vegetarian either."
As long as you can have enough to eat, it doesn't matter if you accept the Crown Prince's management, even if it is harsher, it is better than going hungry.
Compared with the previous chaos, they saw hope in the crown prince.
