Chapter 897 - 897 Independent Taoyuan Village

897 Independent Taoyuan Village

After the discussion, Lin yuelan and Lin Yiwei went to anding County together.

The county Magistrate was no longer Zhou Changsheng. However, before the current county Magistrate was transferred here, he was well aware that Ni Lai Wo Wang restaurant owner was Lin yuelan from the Lin family Village. She was also on very good terms with the previous County Magistrate.

Therefore, it was much easier for Lin yuelan and Lin Yiwei to cooperate with him.

Hearing the purpose of the two’s visit, County Magistrate Liu pondered for a moment and asked Lin yuelan very seriously, ” you’ve separated yourself from the Lin family Village and plan to re-established a new ancestral shrine on your own. Have you thought about the entire village’s land, real estate, and the various problems that may arise between the villages in the future? ” This was especially true for the relationship between the Lin family Village and the new village.

Lin yuelan smiled and said, ” Lord Liu, since I already have plans to create an independent village, I must have thought of all kinds of problems. Please rest assured, Lord Liu!

When Lord Liu heard this, he said, ” However, from now on, you will have nothing to do with the Lin family Village. Even if you’re the only one living in this village, you’ll still have to deal with the problems of tax collection, recruitment of soldiers, and military service.”

In the past, whenever there was a war, they would face the problem of conscription. In many cases, there would be forced recruitment.

Lin yuelan nodded and said, ” yes, thank you for your concern, Lord Liu. I’ve already asked Grandpa village chief about these problems, and I’ve also thought about them.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lord Liu nodded and said, ” since that’s the case, I have no reason to disagree. Advisor Wu, go and prepare the village … Uh, what village do you plan to call it?” The last sentence was directed at Lin yuelan.

Lin yuelan said, ” Taoyuan Village!”

“Advisor Wu, go and prepare the written contract!” Lord Liu ordered.

Private advisor Wu replied respectfully, ” yes, my Lord!”

After private advisor Wu left, Lin yuelan took out a few more contracts and said to County Magistrate Liu, ” Lord Liu, I intend to buy a few small hills in front of Da Ao mountain. Look at this …”

County Magistrate Liu took the contract and looked at it. He was a little surprised and puzzled. these mountains are all barren. If she wanted to cultivate them into fields, the government could exempt her from taxes for three years. There was no need to buy them at all. That was what he told Lin Yuelan.

Lin yuelan didn’t expect Lord Liu to be such a good person. He actually wanted her to save money.

After hearing County Magistrate Liu’s words, Lin Yiwei was also very excited.

People who could say such things were usually good official.

Lin Yiwei was a little excited. “Lord Liu, you’re right. It was just that this child wanted to buy these mountains. One could be directly developed into farms, and the other, she planned to plant some fruit trees and medicinal herbs on the mountain.

“You also know that although this child is young, her medical skills are not low. She also has a long way to go and wants to plant some medicinal herbs.”

When Lord Liu heard this, he nodded and said, ” Oh, I see! Alright, I’ll sell these mountains to you at the normal price of 30 taels of silver. I’ll arrange for two land managers to follow you to measure them later.

“But looking at these few mountains, it’s not a small scale and might cost some money. Is it worth it?”

Lin yuelan smiled and said, ” yes, thank you for your reminder, Lord Liu. I know what I’m doing.”

Lord Liu nodded his head slightly and said, ” mm, it’s good that you know what to do. After the measurement is done, you can come back and handle the title deeds for these mountains.”

Lin yuelan nodded and said, ” thank you, Lord Liu! This is just a small token of my respect!”

Lin yuelan didn’t take any money. Instead, she gave Lord Liu several rare fruits, such as red persimmons, purple grapes, and a small watermelon.

Lord Liu knew that Ni Lai Wo Wang restaurant would sell some fruits from time to time, but they were all sold at sky-high prices, and only those with connections could buy them.

Compared to money, these fruits were more valuable. They were good things that money couldn’t buy.

When Lord Liu saw the red and green fruits, his eyes brightened. He did not decline and laughed loudly. “alright, then I will accept it!”

He accepted the fruits, not because of their value but because they really liked them.

As soon as Lin Yiwei returned to the Lin family Village, he held a meeting with the entire village.

Lin Yiwei said to the villagers in a serious tone, ” from today onwards, Lin yuelan no longer belongs to the Lin family. She has already formed her own village, called Taoyuan Village.”
