False Eunuch: With Many Children, I'm as Happy as a Fish in Water

The next day.

Lin Chen directly ordered his soldiers and officials from Akacang County to start investigating Tian Li's work.

All the fields previously purchased by force were redeemed by the government at the same price.

The squire in Chicang County thought that this was Lin Chenjia's greedy way to collect these fields under his name.

But don't want to.

All the fields purchased by the government were returned to the original owners.

As for the fields that were missing or dead and had no owners, Lin Chen also asked Lin Chen to register them and distribute them to the victims who had fled from other places.

certainly.

Just having fields is not enough; soil cannot be eaten as food.

A so-called official announcement about providing work-for-relief reached the ears of the hungry people.

Go to the government office to sign up to renovate canals, weirs and ponds, open up wasteland and burn mountains. You will be given two copper coins a day, three meals a day, two coins and one coin.

For a time, the number of applicants was overwhelming.

The squire of Chicang County, who had regained his composure, also focused on the tax exemption for land reclamation.

In particular, the Li family and the Lin family had already begun to gather their tribesmen to open up wasteland and farmland.

With insufficient manpower, these squires had to offer far more favorable terms than the government to attract hungry people.

Most of the people living on this land have an inexplicable fanaticism for the land.

Because land is also hard currency from a certain perspective.

before there was no flooding.

In Akicang County, lower fields cost 30 taels of silver per acre, middle fields cost 5 taels, and upper fields and paddy fields are even more expensive.

Nowadays, land reclamation is a sure-profit business no matter how you look at it.

"Mr. Lin, this work-for-relief program is really useful!"

Lin Chen laughed in his heart when he heard Li Xunhuan's exclamation.

This is natural.

After all, this trick will still be useful even if it takes a thousand years.

As for why Li Xunhuan was in the county government office?

Naturally, he was captured by Lin Chen.

Not only Li Xunhuan, but also Li Chengan, all worked beside Lin Chen under the instruction of Li Xi, an old fox.

Lin Chen naturally knew its intention, but he didn't care.

Although Lin Chen planned the direction clearly and logically, if he were to manage tens of thousands of households in Akicang County, he would be blinded.

so.

Lin Chen set his sights on Li Xunhuan.

This boy is a talented person who studied Confucian scholarship. He can manage a county with ease.

Li Chengan was also arranged by Lin Chen to be the temporary chief clerk, helping Li Xunhuan manage Chicang County.

Li Chengan was obviously very satisfied with his position as chief clerk. He led the officials around all day long to inspect the work-for-relief situation.

but.

Lin Chen could not stay in Chicang County forever. His duty was to destroy the White Lotus Sect army.

Looking at the situation in Chicang County, Lin Chen deliberately planned to hand over Chicang County to Li Xunhuan for temporary management until the court sent a new county magistrate.

Li Xunhuan looked slightly bitter when he heard this.

At present, Li Xunhuan is still a young man with a somewhat out-of-touch personality, not as bitter and hateful as in the book.

Therefore, he stayed in the county office like a clay Buddha all day long, feeling uncomfortable all over.

"Brother Lin Chen, why don't we continue talking about martial arts? I'll see you that day..." Li Xunhuan immediately began to change the subject.

That day, Li Xunhuan saw Lin Chen's swordsmanship using a green leaf as a sword, and he was very interested.

According to what Li Xunhuan said, what he learned was taught by a wandering Taoist priest when he was a child. He had no name.

He called this skill Knife Flying Skill.

Obviously this knife-flying skill is the prototype of Xiao Li's future knife-flying skills.

Lin Chen had to admit that Li Xunhuan was an out-and-out genius in martial arts.

At such an age, he is already an acquired warrior.

This speed was almost comparable to Lin Chen who was cheating.

certainly.

As a son of an official, Li Xunhuan had a very high level of martial arts, but he had never experienced what Jianghu was.

It can be seen that Li Xunhuan yearns for the martial arts.

It's just that he, Li Xunhuan, has to shoulder the expectations of his father and ancestors to become the number one scholar in the examination, so he can only suffer in reading the Four Books and Five Classics.

When Lin Chen heard this, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

If you train in both civil and martial arts, you will be able to pass the examination to be the best in civil arts, and you will be able to cultivate your martial arts to the acquired state.

In a way this is the top protagonist template.

I have to suspect that this guy is in Versailles.

But.

Lin Chen thought of something and shook his head imperceptibly.

As beautiful as Li Xunhuan was in the first half of his life, he was so miserable in the second half of his life.

"Sir! Miss Lin is here to deliver food again."

Just when Lin Chen was slandering, Yang Qilang's announcement sounded outside the door.

"Huh?" Li Xunhuan laughed loudly when he heard this, and said as if he was watching a good show: "Mr. Lin, my cousin is very stubborn. You'd better try this meal."

Lin Chen couldn't help but frown slightly as he listened to Li Xunhuan's joke.

Yes.

What Lin Chen couldn't understand was.

Logically speaking, Li Xunhuan and Lin Shiyin, who were supposed to be childhood sweethearts and were destined to be babies, have become ordinary relatives with little overlap in the current world of mixed martial arts.

Is this some sort of butterfly effect?

Originally, Lin Chen was a little wary of whether there was any plot against him.

But later, Lin Chen suddenly understood.

in ancient times.

Isn't it normal for a squire to fawn over an official?

Before Lin Chen came, Lin Hua had intended to get closer to Song Jie and marry Lin Shiyin to him as an equal wife.

The so-called equal wife, to put it bluntly, is a concubine.

But the appearance of Lin Chen caused Song Jie to be imprisoned.

But this cannot stop Lin Hua from wanting to build a relationship.

Or.

Lin Chen, a powerful general from the capital, is an even better candidate.

In modern times, Lin Hua's actions would definitely be criticized by feminists.

But this is ancient times.

In ancient times, one of the purposes of raising daughters in wealthy families was marriage.

According to Li Xunhuan, his cousin Lin was not very capable, and he was unwilling to accept the gradual decline of the Lin family.

That's why Lin Hua wanted to cling to relationships and revive the Lin family.

As the target of being clung to, Lin Chen felt helpless.

"General Lin, cousin." Lin Shiyin gave a blessing ceremony.

Lin Chen's ghostly eyes looked at Lin Shiyin with a thoughtful look on his face.

It might be wrong to say that Lin Shiyin fell in love with him at first sight, but she definitely had a good impression.

Lin Shiyin had been showing favor to him during this period, and she most likely wanted to use his help to escape from the Lin family.

Think about it this way.

That day, I noticed that Lin Shiyin's energy and blood were weak, and she must have been suffering from worry.

Anyone who has a father who wants to sell himself will be similar to Lin Shiyin.

This is one of the few things a girl who has accepted ancient teachings and etiquette can do to resist.

Lin Chen couldn't help but feel a headache when he thought of this.

If he didn't have a special status, he would not refuse Lin Shiyin who came to his door.

This is a stunningly beautiful woman who is rare in the world in the original work.

"General Lin, I have something important to tell you."

"Is it important?" Lin Chen was startled when he heard this.

Li Xunhuan, on the other hand, nodded understandingly and stood up, muttering: "Master Lin, I have to go take care of government affairs first."

He turned around and left without any sloppiness at all.

When Lin Chen saw this, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"What's the matter?"

"grown ups!"

Lin Shiyin took off her veil and looked at Lin Chen without any sign of weakness.

That beautiful face, which still had little blood, lost some softness in its delicate eyes.

"The little lady wants to make a deal with you, sir."
