Exiled to Lingnan, my plants are miraculous

Chapter 18 Baixiang Village

Wiping the sweat from their foreheads, everyone in the Lin family lined up to wait at the gate of the county government office.

From time to time, deportees who had taken off their shackles and shackles came out, some with frowns and some with joy.

"Lin Hongyuan, there are a total of twenty-five people in the family, including nine adult men, seven adult women, six underage men, and three underage women. Twenty-four or five people have been exiled, and the actual number is twenty-five."

The clerk who was sitting on the imperial chair looked at the man in front of him in surprise. He didn't expect that a frail scholar could protect his family from Kyoto to Lingnan safely. A person cannot be judged by his appearance!
  "Yes, sir, where do you think we will be assigned?"

Lin Hongyuan handed over his identity certificate and a stack of banknotes with a flattering look on his face, but not flattery.

The clerk touched the thick banknote and nodded. He was a man who could stretch and bend, and he was very knowledgeable.

"Let's take Baixiang Village! This is a newly built village, and there are only two families living in it. If there are many of you, it is best to live in separate households. Baixiang Village is full of fifty households."

"Okay, let's divide the households into seven households. Lin Hongyuan, Wang Xiangyi, and Lin Daxuan are in one household; Lin Yixu, Zhang Tao, Lin Daping, Lin Dachan, Lin Lang, and Lin Qiang are in one household; Lin Yiguang, Xie Zhouzhou, and Linda Zheng, Lin Daqing and Lin Jiao belong to the same household; Lin Yichen belongs to the same household.

Lin Hongzhi, Min Xin, and Lin Yue belong to the same household, Lin Yihua, Qian Qianqian, and Lin Dayu belong to the same household, and Lin Yiyan and You Dai belong to the same household.

Sir, do you think this is okay? "

"Okay, this is your identity card. In Lingnan, generally when building city walls, canals and other projects, you need to be recruited according to your identity card. Adult men must be prepared at any time.

The imperial court also encouraged land reclamation. No taxes were collected for three years. After three years, taxes would be collected per mu. Three generations later could not take part in the imperial examination. Family members were restrained from trying to provoke local residents. "

"Thank you sir, I understand."

Seeing Lin Hongyuan's righteous appearance, the scribe gave him a few words of praise.

A group of people were escorted through the county seat, passing towns, villages, and all the way to the lush woods.

"Okay, this is Baixiang Village, go in by yourselves!"

The two officers carrying sabers left these words and left.

The Lin family and other people assigned to Baixiang Village looked at each other. They had nothing, so just leave us here?
  The lush woods and the blowing wind are a bit breathtaking.

"Auntie, are we going to live here from now on? I'm a little scared."

Lin Dayu held Lin Yue's hand and winked, so cute!
  "Don't be afraid. My grandparents, father, mother, and aunts are all here, and they are all accompanying Brother Yu. Look, there are so many people. My sisters and brothers are all here!"

Since entering the Lingnan area, Lin Yue felt that her body had relaxed and her powers were showing signs of recovery.

"Brother Lin, I don't know what to do now?"

The person who asked the question was Jian Chengyu, the secretary of the Ministry of Personnel. He made a remonstrance to the emperor and violated the emperor's taboo. The whole family was thrown into the sky prison. It took them half a year to be exiled with this opportunity. They were also a big family. Unfortunately, in half a year Ten people died on the road, and now there are only thirty left.

During this period of time, it seemed that Jian Chengyu, apart from being a bit rigid and stubborn, was still a person we could get along with. The people in his family were also very well-behaved, and the thoughts of some of his children were not harmful.

Except for the narrow path at the entrance of the village, there are dense trees growing in the rest of the place. There is not a single house in sight. Doesn't it mean that there are already two families here?

"Let's go take a look first and find two other houses. It will be dark soon, so we still need to find a place to stay first."

With that said, everyone drove the ox cart and horse-drawn carriage into the deep path. It took about a quarter of an hour to walk before they saw any smoke. “There is someone, grandfather, there is someone in front of me.”

Linda was jumping to Lin Hongyuan's side, pointing excitedly to the smoke in front, with a bright smile on her little face.

"I saw it, brother Zheng, hold my grandfather's hand and stop falling. It's not very smooth here."

"Who are you?"

A thin man with yellow and black skin, about 16 meters tall, held a tree trunk and looked at the visitor fiercely.

If it weren't for the large number of people on our side, I'm afraid they would have been attacked.

"Young man, don't be afraid. We are the newly arranged exiles. Your Excellency said that there used to be two families here. One is Feng and the other is Li. What do you call me?"

Feng Niu relaxed a little when he heard that they were new residents. His father had already learned the news when he went to the city a few days ago.

"You guys wait, I'll call my dad."

Before everyone could react, the thin, dark young man ran away.

Lin Yue looked at the tall woods around her. They were virgin forests that were completely undeveloped. Could this be considered a village?

I'm afraid this is not a joke!
  How to live in such an environment?

Where is Tian?

Where is the land?

What about places where homes can be built?
  Just when Lin Yue was thinking wildly, the thin black boy quickly came over with his father.

"Hello, my name is Feng Shiyun. I moved here last year. This is a new village with nothing. Everything is up to you.

Lingnan generally builds tree houses and houses on trees. Firstly, there are many trees in Lingnan. Secondly, there is a lot of rain here. Building on the ground can easily get flooded and damp, and people can easily get sick. Thirdly, there are many insects here. ant.

This mountain is within the scope of Baixiang Village. You are free to live wherever you want. It is best to live together so that everyone can help each other.

There are also craftsmen who build tree houses in the city. When you first come here, you should ask local experienced people to help build the house. You see, this is my family’s house. There are five people in my family, so five rooms are more than enough. Of course, a kitchen can also be built under the tree. To pile up debris, you can also build stables for horses and cows. "

Everyone saw a large tree house built three meters above the ground, with more than a dozen trees serving as load-bearing pillars. It looked very spacious, but in fact there was an open kitchen and shed underneath.

"Won't the oil and salt below spread to the top?"

Lin Yue is still very interested in the tree house, so that she can have a higher field of vision, so she wants to know more clearly.

"This will have some impact to some extent, and how long do you think you can live in this tree house? It will need to be replaced every two years at most. It is exposed to wind and rain all year round, and even the best wood will rot, let alone withstand our Live inside.

This is also the case. Most people in Lingnan build wooden houses. This is because the frequency of replacement is too fast, and the family does not have that much money to hire someone to build a wooden house every time. Of course, this is not a difficult job. As long as you have the strength, you can learn it. "

The Lin family and the others all looked at each other. They had never lived in a house like this before, and they were a little worried. They wanted to build a house made of bricks and tiles, but they felt that the fortune-locking theory was reasonable, and they were afraid that building a tree house would not be strong. Can you adapt to the life above?
