In fact, Lin Xi still spoke very conservatively.

The yield of three thousand catties per mu of sweet potatoes is definitely far more than that.

What's more, what he made a wish at the beginning was all high-yield grain seeds.

Even after two generations of planting, it will degrade a bit, and in this era there is no chemical fertilizer and an excellent planting environment.

But there must be a yield of five thousand catties per mu.

Potatoes may be less, but more than 4000 catties is no problem at all.

"Believe it or not, anyway, I'm going to plant it in two days."

"Thank you for the group of refugees you sent me. I can barely spread out some fields."

"If there are more in the future, with a clean background, give me some more."

A heavy rain directly irrigated the barren fields reclaimed by Linxi. After a simple arrangement, the earliest reclaimed [-]-acre terraced fields were ready to be planted.

He originally planned to give all of them to these refugees to plant.

But unfortunately, after the rain, one-third of the refugees chose to go back to their hometown.

So the remaining refugees are not enough.

Fortunately, Lin Xi did not lack labor force. Although Han Feiyu scattered hundreds of black shadow ninjas, after a night of rest in the shadow kingdom, they returned to their original state the next day.

Now under the villa, the black shadow ninjas are building wooden houses for the refugees.

There are countless woods that have been dried, so these wooden houses are also built with open doors.

Not only the kitchen in the main house and the side house has been built, but even the pigsty and chicken coop have been built in advance.

Lin Xi had already thought about it.

In a few days, I will ask Mrs. Zheng for some piglets and chickens suitable for breeding.

From now on, as long as you are a farmer here, every family has food and meat, and you don't have to worry about eating and drinking!

"This palace... I didn't say I didn't believe it."

"But it's really unbelievable. It's Bengong who believes it. How can I convince the representatives of those aristocratic families?"

"I didn't intend to make them believe it. It's a threat. It doesn't matter whether they believe it or not."

Lin Xi was thinking about the future, and after hearing Wu Yue's doubts, he had to continue to explain.

The thinking of the ancients is indeed quite different from his.

At least it is much more simple.

"Our purpose is to let them understand that the royal family is to give them a chance to choose. If they join, they will be their own people and make a fortune together in the future."

"If you don't join, when the food problem is resolved, these recalcitrant families will be the first to attack."

"It's better if someone doesn't believe it. Let's hold on to it. When the time comes, send troops to beat him. Let's see who dares to help him. You can also nationalize all their fields. Wouldn't it be great?"

I see…

Wu Yue suddenly felt enlightened.

Contain but not expose, open but not reach, lead but not send out.

Everywhere people see and know the threat, but everywhere is just a deterrent.

This guy is indeed more transparent than himself in seeing people's hearts.

"I'm going back first."

"So fast? Don't you want to stay for a meal?"

Lin Xi asked in surprise.

After all, it hasn't been long since I've been here, so it doesn't matter how busy I am.

But keeping her for dinner was just a formality.

Unexpectedly, Wu Yue stopped after hearing this, turned around and took a look at him, and answered calmly.

"Alright, stay and try your handicraft, and return to the palace after lunch."

"..."

Lin Xi wished he could give himself two big pen pockets, so what a mouthful!
"Okay, then you stand here and don't move, I'll get you two oranges."

"I don't eat oranges."

"If you don't eat, you have to eat!"

Lin Xi said bitterly, got up and left the lobby.

When he really found two oranges and came back, he saw that Wu Yue had disappeared.

The maid serving here smiled and said:
"Boss, Your Highness asked your servant to tell you that you will not eat this meal. If you like oranges, His Highness will often bring them to you in the future."

"..."

Good guy, take advantage of me in turn!
Lin Xi sneered.

Although he was turned against the general, he was in a good mood.

This princess is not so dull on the surface.

……

……

After Wu Yue left, Lin Xi devoted himself to the construction of the villa again.

Now the villa has received more than 70 families, a total of 310 men, women, old and children.

But there are less than a hundred middle-aged men, so it is impossible to cover all the terraced fields.

But at present, the hundred or so acres are more than enough.

Lin Xi took out all the seeds he wished for and planted them, and used the extra land to grow other crops. I believe that in late autumn, there will be a bountiful harvest here.

He didn't plan to grow too many potatoes and sweet potatoes. These two crops do produce a lot, but it's a pity that they consume a lot of land.

It is enough to plant a crop and give it to Wu Yue as a seed, but it is not acceptable to plant all of them.

The refugees have a living security, and their enthusiasm for work is very strong.

They are willing to stay, on the one hand, because the treatment and environment here are very good, and on the other hand, they are convinced by the prestige of the Eldest Princess.

To be able to cultivate fields for the fairy-like eldest princess is a blessing from the previous life for them!

In the eyes of the children in the villa, the favorite and coolest game is shouting "Let me rain" with one hand on the hip and the other pointing at the sky!
Lin Xi has seen little girls playing this game several times, he really wants Wu Yue to come and see it in person, he will definitely die on the spot.

While the development of Prison Jade Villa was booming, the atmosphere in Fengjing City was not particularly ideal.

Representatives of aristocratic families from various states have already gathered together, and the first meeting will be held in two days.

Some aristocratic families were all focused on preparing for negotiations, but some secretly contacted Lin Ruiyang thinking of betting on both sides.

Although these little tricks couldn't be hidden from the eyeliner of Changle Palace, they also made people feel a little uncertain about the meeting.

The worst thing was Song Guo's attitude towards the death of the third prince.

The Emperor Song was furious and demanded that Da Zhou find out the murderer and pay compensation within five days, otherwise he would send out troops to attack the city of Fengjing.

However, the compensation demanded by the State of Song was not only a huge amount of money and materials, but also the cession of the five counties of Xinzhou.

Xinzhou, as the border with the Song Dynasty, if the five border defense counties were ceded, the entire Great Zhou Dynasty would become a slaughterhouse where the Song Dynasty could come and go freely.

This is an absolutely impossible plan to accept, but in Wu Santong's view, it is not impossible.

He only cared about his own happiness when he was in power, and he didn't care whether there would be floods in the future.

Wu Santong's idea has also won the support of many conservative ministers.

But because of this incident, the court was divided into two distinct factions.

Not only Cheng Qiji and others resolutely opposed it, but even Lin Ruiyang was on the side of opposing compensation.

Of course, Wu Yue knew what kind of thoughts he had.

Just when the forces of all parties were harboring ulterior motives, several guests that Lin Xi had never thought of came to Prison Jade Villa.
