"Master, I just came back from the Chen Mansion. They are so shameless. They are just robbing money. They actually..." Wood then told the story of what he encountered in the Chen Mansion.

Wu Youning reported, and this time Wood's tone was angry.

"...Sir, the Chen family is really bullying people. How dare they offer such a high price? Isn't this robbery by fire? Master, please don't agree..." Wood kept complaining in his mouth.

"I agreed, it's this price." Wu Youning said calmly, as if he didn't hear Wood's complaints at all.

Wood immediately opened his mouth. He looked at Wu Youning in disbelief, and then asked again very carefully: "Master, what did you just say...?"

How could the master agree to such conditions? I must have heard wrong just now, Wood said to himself in his heart.

"I agreed, Wood, you go repay the Chen family, and I agreed to their price." Wu Youning said decisively, but he had no intention of paying attention to the murmurs in Wood's heart.

"Gah..." Wood was really stunned this time. Wu Youning's answer was completely contrary to what he thought in his heart. Wood felt that his master was really stupid.

"Master..." Wood shouted for a long time. It was obvious that he was very opposed to Wu Youning's decision in his heart.

"Wood, don't be nagging. You go to the Chen Mansion again and tell them that I agree to their conditions. Thirty silver coins and one hundred catties of green corn. I want all their grain reserves." Wu Youning said firmly, not giving any.

Wood's opportunity to persuade.

"Yes, sir." Wood replied feebly, and then walked out of the study with his head hanging down, preparing to go to the Chen Mansion again.

Looking at Wood's weak back, Wu Youning narrowed his eyes slightly: "Wood's knowledge is still too shallow. He thought that thirty silver coins and one hundred catties of green corn was the price to buy rice. If he thought so, he was completely wrong.

He didn't expect that this was not actually the price for buying rice, but the confidentiality fee for letting Chen Yuqiang plot against Lin Lixuan and me.

With Chen Yuqiang's intelligence and the deep-rooted power of the Chen family in Huangsha Town, Chen Yuqiang can definitely guess that Xu Dongxing and I spread these rumors in the town. Therefore, thirty silver coins and one hundred catties of green corn are enough for Chen Yuqiang to

The price of keeping silent. Only in this way will Chen Yuqiang not tell others about my and Xu Dongxing's plans."

"Lin Lixuan, I am Lin Lixuan, this time I want you to taste the power of me, Wu Youning, hahaha..." Wu Youning laughed wildly.

…………….

Lin Ze also had a smile on his face. Just now, the housekeeper Lin Fuli came to report that about 18,000 acres of land outside the town had been cultivated, and now he was waiting for Lin Ze to inspect it.

"Lin Fu, are you ready with everything I asked you to prepare before?" Lin Ze asked Lin Fu next to him as he climbed onto Xiaojiao's horse.

"Master, I have already prepared the things you asked me to prepare before. But, Master, why do you need so much green bamboo? Moreover, you only need the ones as thick as two big fingertips.

In order to find the green bamboos you asked for, I spent a lot of time. It was not until a few days ago that I found the green bamboos you asked for. Master, can you tell me now what use these green bamboos are for you?" Lin Fu

Asked curiously on the side.

Lin Fu was puzzled as to why Lin Ze asked him to look for so many green bamboos, and he only wanted two green bamboos the size of a thumbnail.

Of course, with the lessons learned from the Quyuanli and the Fire Armored Ox plowing cattle, Lin Fu did not think that Lin Ze asked him to do this just for fun, but Lin Fu was indeed very curious in his heart.

"Lin Fu, you will know these things when I get to the ground. If I explain them here, you won't understand." Lin Ze didn't say anything more, lightly touched the corner with his feet, and shouted: "Drive,

Xiaojiao, let’s go!”

"Tap, tap, tap..." Following the rapid sound of horse hooves, Xiaojiao ran out quickly. Lin Fu had no choice but to mount his horse and follow Lin Ze closely, and ran out of the town.

In about twenty minutes, Lin Ze arrived at his destination. Wang Ming, Tie Ying, and Li Sanwa were already waiting for him here.

Behind Wang Ming and the others, there are thousands of refugees. No, we should not call them refugees now, but civilians.

With ample food, clothing, and countless jobs waiting for them, these refugees have completely settled down.

"Hey..." Lin Ze shouted softly, and the little horn stopped obediently, snorted, and then shook his head from side to side a few times, as if he was complaining about why Lin Ze only took it with him for so long.

Road, it hasn’t finished warming up yet.

"Okay, go run away by yourself and come back before the sun goes down!" Lin Ze smiled and rubbed a few bunches of hair on Xiaojiao's head, and let Xiaojiao run away by himself.

Xiaojiao was indeed a psychic. After listening to Lin Ze's words, he first touched Lin Ze's body lightly with his head, then let out a long roar and ran away quickly.

Soon, the cheerful roar of horses from Little Horn came from the distance. It was obvious that Little Horn enjoyed the time of letting it run so fast in the open desert.

"Your Majesty's horse is really spiritual!" Wang Ming stepped forward and flattered him.

After working as a cashier for so many years, Wang Ming has already mastered such things as flattery.

"Hahaha..." Lin Ze laughed, feeling very satisfied with Wang Ming's flattery.

"Wang Ming, how are you? Are you still used to the life here?" Lin Ze asked Wang Ming behind him as he walked into the ground.

"Master, it's not bad. I have lived in Xiayu City for nearly a month, so I am still accustomed to the climate here in Huangsha Town." Wang Ming followed Lin Ze and replied.

"Well, I'm afraid you won't be able to get used to the climate here." Lin Ze let go of his worries. What he just said to Wang Ming was not a polite statement.

The climate conditions in Qingzhou are much better than those in Shazhou. It is not a land of plenty, but it can still be called a water town.

After all, there is a Qinghuai River in Qingzhou that is dozens of kilometers wide. With such a big river, there is no shortage of water in Qingzhou.

Of course, for Qingzhou, the Qinghuai River has both advantages and disadvantages. For example, this time, the Qinghuai River burst its banks and the entire Qingzhou was flooded for seven or eight layers, which led to such a large wave of refugees.

The climate here in Shazhou is dry, especially in a town like Huangsha Town, which is often surrounded by thousands of miles of sand sea. The climate is even drier. People like Wang Ming who have been living in water towns before will probably not adapt to it. Once Wang Ming cannot adapt to the climate here,

, that’s dangerous.

Don't forget that Lin Lixuan, who took over Lin Ze's body, died in the inn in Linsha City because he was not acclimatized to the environment. Therefore, Lin Ze just asked this question. He did not want his men to die because of the acclimatization.

"Wang Ming, you have been here for a few days now. What do you think about the arrangements in the refugee camp?" Lin Ze asked, standing on a hilltop and looking at the dense dens below.

This was Lin Ze's test for Wang Ming, or it could be said to be an exam.

Qiu Kai also had such an exam. Lin Ze directly handed over all the affairs of Huangsha Town to him. As a result, Qiu Kai's results were excellent. Therefore, now Qiu Kai was appointed by Lin Ze as the Dianshi and was fully responsible for Huangsha Town.

In all matters above, Qiu Kai officially entered Lin Ze's center of power.

Others seemed to understand that Lin Ze was planning to test Wang Ming, so they all stood under the hill and did not come up.

"Bang bang bang..." Wang Ming's heart began to beat violently, and he understood the true meaning of what Lin Ze just asked.

Thinking that his answer this time would determine his status under Lin Ze, Wang Ming suddenly felt a little dry in his mouth.

Fortunately, after experiencing so many things, especially several actual battles on the road, Wang Ming's self-control ability has been greatly strengthened. He first stabilized his heart, then organized his words in his mind, and finally looked solemn.

Xiang Linze replied: "Reporting to your lord, Wang Ming does have several suggestions that he would like to make to you, lord."

"Well, then tell me." Lin Ze seemed to say casually, but in his heart, Lin Ze was still very satisfied. Seeing Wang Ming's sudden change of seriousness, he understood

What I just said was actually taking a test.

Therefore, Wang Ming has passed the first level.

If Wang Ming couldn't even understand the meaning of what he just said, then Wang Ming would be of no use to Lin Ze. Lin Ze would just send Wang Ming away and arrange a remote place for him...

Lin Ze could be very casual, but Wang Ming couldn't. He calmed down and started his first exam with Lin Ze.

Wang Ming said: "Sir, according to Wang Ming, there are many things that you need to pay attention to now, but there are only three things that you need to think about first."

"Three o'clock? Tell me." This time Lin Ze simply sat on the ground, ready to listen to Wang Ming's three points of advice.

"Sir, the first point is that you need to find a way out for these refugees." Wang Ming said his first suggestion.

"A way out? Didn't I find a way out for them to farm?" Lin Ze answered quickly.

"Sir, if the only refugees who come here are the more than 14,000 refugees below (some more refugees have come in the past few days), the way out you have arranged is indeed possible, but, sir, you need to know that behind

In a period of time, there will be tens of thousands of refugees coming here. At that time, what way can the adults arrange for them? Is it still farming?" Wang Ming said sharply.

Hearing this, the look on Lin Ze's face became serious. He realized that he had really ignored this problem. However, when he looked at the sand around him and thought of something he had planned before, Lin Ze let go of his worries.

Already.
