The Princess of Northern Land

"When will such a large film be completed?" Wu Dayou sighed.

"Even if we can open it all, we can't open it all. But don't worry, with just a few of us, we may not be able to complete the land reclamation even if it takes a hundred years." Lin Ziyin said with a smile.

The old man looked at the endless wasteland and nodded approvingly, "This place is so big. I have never heard anyone say that it can be walked all the way. It is not difficult to finish it."

"Why can't it be finished?" Zi Ge asked curiously.

"This wasteland is a habitat for many birds, or a place where they settle when they fly south. If we finish cultivating all the land, what will the birds do? Every place, even every grass, tree and river, is We have our own rules of survival. If we make too many artificial changes, God will definitely retaliate against us." Lin Ziyin couldn't explain topics such as soil erosion and wetland environmental protection to everyone, so he explained it to everyone in the simplest terms.

"Zi Yin is right." Mr. Lin nodded, "I have borrowed some means of survival from God, so I can't be too greedy."

Everyone who came over nodded frequently.

"Otherwise, Dayou and I will leave the oil mill to others tomorrow, and the two of us will come over to open up wasteland." Lin Changshu also considered the manpower issue.

"I can come over too." Guo Huiniang said, forgetting her fear.

"No." Lin Ziyin shook his head, "You will definitely need to keep an eye on the oil mill. I have other plans for the land reclamation. I plan to recruit people to work in the village. The strength is twenty-five coppers a day, and no food is provided. "

"How much money is needed?" Guo Huiniang said worriedly, "I don't need to worry about my family now. I have nothing to do, so I might as well come over and do something."

"Sister-in-law, you and your sister will take care of things in the kitchen first. Let the Cui family and Hong Zhong take care of this. When we have free time, my grandfather and I will come over and keep an eye on it." Lin Ziyin said, starting to think about what kind of people we need. , "Grandpa and brother must know who is diligent in the village. When we look for people in the afternoon, grandpa, you must keep a close eye on them. We don't want those who are lazy and cunning."

"That's natural." Lin Changshu agreed.

"I'll take a look too." Wu Dayou was also very concerned about this matter.

As soon as the Lin family returned to the village, Lin Ziyin, Lin Changshu, the old man, and Wu Dayou went to Li Zheng and explained their purpose.

"You want to open up the wasteland on the other side of the Heihe River?" After hearing what Lin Ziyin said, Li Zheng opened his mouth in surprise, "Those black soils are unlucky. Why do you think so highly of such wasteland?"

"I cooperated with the prince and the temple. The prince rewarded me with such a piece of land when he was happy. If I refused, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the prince?" Lin Ziyin said half-truthfully.

The old man and the others listened on the sidelines and did not criticize her.

Li Zheng was also one of the insiders about Lin Ziyin's plan to cooperate with Ding'an Temple and the prince to start a vegetarian diet, so he really believed Lin Ziyin's words to fool him. "Since it is the prince's kindness, you really can't refuse. People in the village have nothing to do these days. Many men go out to the city or the market to find work. If you give me a job, There must be someone willing to go there. Besides, the wages you give me are five coppers more than what I get outside."

"Then I'll ask Uncle Li Zheng to go to the village and say hello to everyone. We'll wait at home and wait for someone to come." Lin Ziyin said.

"Okay, I'll have someone come over in the afternoon." Li Zheng agreed.

After talking about business, Lin Ziyin and the others went back.
