Chapter 747

Seeing her like this, Xia Zheng couldn't pretend anymore, he licked his lips, giggled, and lowered his voice: "I lost to you, I really haven't been to that lake, but I've heard others say that that lake The water in the river is indeed abundant and clean, if it weren’t for the distance from our place, there would be no need to expand the river at all.”

In this way, the upper reaches of the river must have better water and more.Lin Yuan couldn't help but looked up upstream.

While the few people were talking, they had already arrived at the small river, and it was exactly as Li Zheng said. The edge of the small river had been rebuilt, and there was a lot of water in it, because the terrain here was flat and the river flow was not too fast.

Compared with the small river in Linjia'ao, this river is indeed much bigger, but Lin Yuan doesn't feel happy at all, because the water in this river looks more and more wrong.

Xia Zheng also saw the problem, moved closer, took a closer look, and finally understood.

"Look, my lord, there is a lot of water in this river. If you buy and farm here, you are guaranteed to have a good harvest next year!" Li Zheng was still boasting to himself, and even sent them to It's just a pity to mention other topics, this little trick was soon exposed by Xia Zheng.

Xia Zheng smiled coldly and said, "Isn't Li Zheng wrong? How can it be an excellent harvest? In my opinion, it should be very, very good!"

When Hua Hui heard Xia Zheng's first sentence, he thought he had been exposed as a lie, but when he heard the second sentence, his heart suddenly became elated. He just said, how do these rich young men know about farming?It's nothing more than playing around.

It's just that this time he really guessed wrong.

Before he could utter a laugh, Xia Zheng's cold shout knocked him from the sky to the ground.

"Lizheng, the water in your river has changed color, don't you use it for irrigation instead of dyeing cloth?!"

Xia Zheng's stern questioning made Li Zheng and the village chiefs tremble, but Xia Zheng finally saw the clue.

Hua Hui collected himself, and smiled awkwardly: "Well, Mr. Xia, please forgive me, we, we didn't mean to lie to you, it's just, just..."

"It's just that I finally ran into someone who was taken advantage of. It's good to be able to sell the land. Who would have thought that we could still see that there is a problem with the river?" Lin Yuan coldly answered Li Zheng's words. I just felt that Lizheng was too cunning and flattering, but I didn't expect her heart to be so bad.

Looking at the expressions of Li Zheng and the village chiefs, it seems that they knew about the problem of the river water early on, but they never took it seriously.Don't they know that if the ground is irrigated with this color-changed water, the crops grown will also be unhealthy?Perhaps, it is not like what Li Zheng said at all, the harvest of the people here is probably not good at all.

Lin Yuan's words punctured the thoughts in his heart, and Li Zheng's expression became even more embarrassed. Just as Lin Yuan said, they really took Xia Zheng and Lin Yuan as fools who didn't understand anything at the beginning, and planned to kill them severely. A meal.However, things backfired, and they met someone who knew the goods.

"Young master and girl, please forgive me, the little one dare not take you for a fool, the little one offended the two nobles for a while, and hoped that the nobles would show their hands and let the villain go!"

Xia Zheng and Lin Yuan frowned. It seemed that Zhengzheng didn't understand why the two of them were angry at all. They were not angry because they were cheated, but because they were hiding dirty water.Don't they care about the crops of those people?Are the lives of the people ignored?

"Okay, shut up." Xia Zheng glared at him impatiently, looked at the slightly colored water, and asked: "It seems that you have long known that there is a problem with the water here?"

Hua Hui and the village chiefs were extremely embarrassed and nodded with dry smiles.

"Then you should know why it happened like this?"

Hua Hui nodded, pointed to a Zhuangzi and said, "I know, it's the water in the cloth dyeing workshop upstream that made the dirt, and the owner of the cloth dyeing workshop is also from the capital."

Following his instructions, Lin Yuan saw several carriages slowly heading towards the village. Her eyesight was not so good, so she couldn't see the signs on the carriages clearly.But Xia Zheng practiced martial arts, so he could see clearly at a glance.

"Wu?"

Xia Zheng frowned: "When did a cloth shop surnamed Wu come out in the capital?"

Li Zheng answered immediately: "I heard that they were not originally from the capital city, but from the south of the Yangtze River. The construction of this cloth dyeing workshop was just started last year."

Jiangnan Wu family?It turned out to be them.

Xia Zheng sneered, and said in Lin Yuan's ear: "Isn't that the Jiangnan Wu family who got the title of imperial merchant this time? I heard that they have a very good relationship with the big bad wolf. It seems that there must be something going on here."

Of course something happened, Lin Yuan curled her lips, she had never seen the Wu family's cloth, but she had seen the Liu Guangjin of the Chen family in Jiangnan, so it was a good one.Moreover, Princess Anle also gave her several clothes made of streamer brocade from the Chen family in the south of the Yangtze River. Although she hadn't worn them, she could feel the silkiness and firmness of the cloth when she was trying on the clothes.

Coupled with the fact that the Wu family suddenly won the title of Imperial Merchant last year, and the Chen family who had won the title for several years was actually defeated, it was hard not to suspect that they had something to do with Zhao Hongsheng, who was in charge of the Imperial Merchant Competition.

"The Chen family has already opened a shop in the capital. It seems that these two families are planning to continue fighting in the capital." Lin Yuan's lips curled slightly, looking forward to the day when the Wu family's reputation would be discredited and Zhao Hongsheng would be slapped in the face.

Closer to home, the water in this small river has been polluted, and if it is used to irrigate the land, it will definitely affect the harvest. Lin Yuan does not plan to buy land here anyway.

However, she was still very worried about the food and drink of the people here, so she asked Li Zheng a question.

But Li Zheng smiled indifferently: "It's okay, it's okay, when the Wu family bought our farm here, they gave us a large sum of money in several villages, saying it was compensation for the common people's crops. If there is land, There are also silver coins, and the people are very welcoming, who would be willing to drive them away? And everyone has their own wells in their homes, so drinking water is not a problem."

Now it's Lin Yuan's turn to be speechless. The kindest people in the world are the people, and they are the ones who suffer the most. Now they only see some money in front of them, but they never think about it. How to survive.

Shaking her head secretly, Lin Yuan felt that she had nothing to say.

Xia Zheng was also silent, even the common people who were involved in it were very welcome, and they had no position to take care of this matter.

Seeing that the two were about to leave, Li Zheng was very anxious. At this moment, a village head suddenly said: "If you two are worried about the water problem, you might as well go to the upper reaches. There is also a large piece of land there, although the soil quality is not as good as this." The side is good, but because it is on the top of Wu’s dyeing cloth workshop, and there are two Zhuangzi in the middle, the water there is not polluted at all. The two of you came here by carriage, and I believe it is necessary to walk this long distance. There will be no difference."

As soon as the village chief finished speaking, Li Zheng suddenly had an idea, and hurriedly approached with a flattering smile: "Yes, yes, there is a piece of land upstream, why did I forget. Hey, the soil quality of that piece of land can't be said to be bad." , isn’t there a member of staff who planted a lot of grapes there? I see how many grapes grow there every year, how can I say it’s bad!”

Lin Yuan sneered in her heart, Zheng's mouth here is really sharp, and her mind is turning quickly. If the land here can't be sold, she starts boasting about the land over there.

Compared with him, the village chief who spoke just now was obviously much more upright, and he didn't want to be with him, so when he saw him open his mouth, he immediately shut his mouth.

"What do you think?" Xia Zheng pinched Lin Yuan's little hand and looked at her with bright eyes.

If it was just because the land and river over there were not polluted, she actually didn't intend to go and have a look. After all, Li Zheng didn't say a word of truth, and she really didn't want to deal with him.

But who made him say that the plant is full of grapes?

"Let's go, there is nothing left and right, it's not bad to go and take a look."

Lin Yuan never did wasted work. She said that if she went over to look, there must be something wrong here. Xia Zheng pursed his lips and smiled, and took her hand and got into the carriage first.

Seeing that the two really planned to go there, Hua Hui hurriedly greeted the village chiefs to get into their carriage, and chased Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng.

A village chief came over sourly and patted the village chief who had just invited Lin Yuan and two people to visit upstream, and said, "Okay, Lao He, it's been so many times, this time it's finally your turn for Hejia Village to be lucky." .”

Another village chief sneered: "Isn't it? The rotten land in Hejia Village can only be used for grapes, and they finally sold it, but the other member of the family stopped planting it. Tsk tsk, wait, even if you put It's useless to cheat those two young people. I can see that those two young people are not as easy to deceive as that idiot. You, just stop worrying about it, and I will definitely not buy you ground!"

He Guangming pursed his lips, ignored them, and turned around and got into his ox cart. Among the carriages of several village chiefs and Lizheng, his ox cart was particularly conspicuous.

Seeing his indifferent appearance, the village chief who had just spoken snorted coldly: "What are you pretending to do! You still drive this broken ox cart back and forth all day, don't think we don't know, the money for buying the land must be lost In your own pocket! Hmph!"

"Okay, okay, don't talk about it." An older village chief tugged at his sleeve and reprimanded him, "Even if there is no one else here, don't talk nonsense. How much money for buying land can be distributed to the common people?" Everyone here knows that Lao He should keep a low profile, it's better than us being scolded every day by villagers pointing at our spines!"

"Come on, just scold me, what else can they come up with? It's a windfall for them to get all the money. If we didn't sell the land, they wouldn't even see a dime!"

"That's right, you're right, get in the car, they're all gone." The old village chief pulled the grieving young village chief into the carriage, and hurriedly chased Li Zheng and the others away.

As He Guangming said, the land in the upper reaches is indeed not as good as the land in the lower reaches, but although the soil quality is not good, Lin Yuan still found out that there are indeed a lot of grapes planted here, but these grapes have obviously been abandoned by the owner. The grape racks are crooked and crooked, which makes people feel pitiful.

Lizheng's carriage was much slower. Before he came, Xia Zheng curled his lips and persuaded Lin Yuan, "This is the surprise you just mentioned? I don't think it's anything special, isn't it just grapes? Something else Grapes can be grown locally, so you don’t have to grow them here, do you?”

When it comes to growing grapes, Xia Zheng is obviously a layman.Although Lin Yuan is not very proficient in grape planting, she has been exposed to some

She walked to the grape trellis, bent down, picked up some soil with her hands, twisted it, and said: "The root system of grapes is very developed, so they can take root in the soil very well. Look at the soil here, although it is obvious that it has passed through the soil of the people. However, the soil here is mostly gravel soil, and the sand inside takes up a large part, so it is best used to grow grapes.”

In addition to soil quality, there is also groundwater here.

Lin Yuan stood up, pointed to the small river next to her, and asked, "Do you still remember the small river we saw over there just now? Li Zheng said that the small river was rebuilt later, and now the water in the river is mostly groundwater. I carefully looked at the depth of the creek, and I estimated that it must be at least seven or eight feet deep. Do you know what else is needed to grow grapes besides soil? Yes, it is water, and groundwater is the best."

She rubbed the ground with the soles of her shoes, and sure enough the land was not very dry.She smiled and said again: "Grapes grow and bear the best results when planted in moist soil. However, it is not good if the groundwater is high or low. I just checked, and the ground drainage here is still very good , so it is best for the groundwater to be about three feet above the ground, and judging from that small river, the water level here definitely meets this condition.”

For what Lin Yuan said before, Xia Zheng didn't understand much, and he couldn't help asking subconsciously: "How do you know these things? What are you putting in your little head? Why? I think the closer I get to you, the less I can see through you?"

Lin Yuan chuckled, took his hand away from her head, and said with a smile: "Now you understand? My little head is precious, and it's full of silver. From now on, you have to take good care of it." Me, if you make me unhappy, there will be no money in my head!"

For Lin Yuan's narcissism, Xia Zheng rolled his eyes and expressed disdain, but quickly changed his mind and said with a smile: "I don't think you have money in your head at all, it's all ghost ideas! Tell me, how do you want to trick that idiot Lizheng?"

Ah!Lin Yuan raised her eyebrows. It seems that not only did she have a lot of things in her mind, but also Xia Zheng. She just said to take a look, but she didn't expect this guy to think that she was going to attack that wicked Lizheng. up.

In fact, I don't blame her for being narrow-minded, the main thing is that Li Zheng is not a good thing at first glance, if it is just flattery, but that guy still has the intention of deceiving, then don't blame her.

"You'll know when people come later." Lin Yuan smiled mysteriously, obviously not wanting to reveal in advance.

If she didn't say it, it didn't mean that Xia Zheng didn't understand. The two of them smiled tacitly. If they could see the anger coming out of them, then the two of them must be covered in clouds and mist.

Leaning on the carriage with his eyes closed and resting his mind, Lin Yi suddenly curled his lips and turned his head to the side. The two of them were really pissed off.

Unlike Xia Zheng, Li Zheng and the village chiefs had a dedicated coachman to drive them, so when Li Zheng rushed to Lin Yuan's side in a hurry, he was already out of breath.

"Young Master, Young Master, you guys are so fast!"

Over there, Ji Dong proudly raised his chin, of course it was going fast, and he didn't even look at who was driving the carriage.

Seeing that he was so tired, Lin Yuan kindly asked him to rest, but Li Zheng obviously couldn't wait to introduce this land to Lin Yuan and the two, so he waved his hands and said that he was not tired.

Since he said he wasn't tired, Lin Yuan didn't force her, and smiled wickedly.

Even though He Guangming set off before those village chiefs, his ox cart was no match for a horse cart after all, so he was still the last one to arrive.This actually caught the attention of Xia Zheng and the others. There is an ox cart in a row of carriages, isn't it special?
"Master Xia, Miss Lin, you two, let me introduce you two?" Li Zheng smiled so much that his mouth was almost behind his ears.

However, Lin Yuan obviously didn't buy into him this time. She pointed to the back of the team and said crisply, "I don't need your introduction. The village chief, please tell me."

Everyone followed her hand and saw He Guangming froze on the spot with a dumbfounded face. They didn't expect that the chosen person was actually themselves.

"Me? Me, I'm stupid, I don't know how to introduce." After a moment of stupefaction, He Guangming pursed his lips, not intending to introduce this place to Lin Yuan.

This was beyond the two people's expectations. Look at Lizheng's almost bent waist at ninety degrees, and the eagerness of the other village chiefs, you can tell who is not rushing to curry favor with the two of them?

But the village chief didn't treat the two of them as a dish!
