Through Time Chapter 103

This piece of land, although not worth much, is still worth ten or so taels of gold.

The other side just gave it to their own son like that because of a bowl of water?

No one would believe it if they said there wasn’t something wrong here.

Wang Cai thought left and right, and finally dropped his gaze onto Zhao Lang’s face, thinking with envy that

“It turns out that being good-looking can really make money.”

Even Zhao Lang himself froze for a moment.

He knew that he was extremely good-looking, but he didn’t dare to say that he could ask someone for fifty taels of gold with just this face.

As for the bowl of water, there was even less need to mention it.

“But you don’t want it, then I’ll take it back, little lady.”

Li Ling’er smiled and said.

Zhao Lang’s eyes stared, reached out and took the land deed into his hand, smiling and said

“Then thank you, Miss Ling’er, and please come to the manor for a few more bowls of water in the future.”

This place was crucial, and he had to get it in his hands.

As for Li Ling’er, no matter what the other party had in mind, he was a big man who was still afraid of the other party?

Li Ling’er revealed a smile and graciously said that

“Then I’ll bother you later.”

Zhao Lang took the land deed and said goodbye, then returned to the manor.

He gave the land deed directly to Uncle Fu, after all, he would be the one to handle the matters afterwards.

It was just that Uncle Fu looked at the land deed in his hand and then listened to Wang Cai brag about how Zhao Lang had subdued Li Ling’er.

Uncle Fu’s face became more and more odd.

Finally pulling Zhao Lang aside, he spoke bitterly to

“My lord, I know that your expenses have been rather high recently.”

“If you really want that piece of land, fifty taels of gold, just fifty taels, the family is still very rich.”

“Why spoil your bloodline… Alas…”

Zhao Lang looked at Uncle Fu and blinked, how the hell could he explain that?

Moreover, there was no such thing as spoiling his bloodline.

“Uncle Fu, it’s not what you think… Other people are just because I gave her my water, so…”

Looking at Uncle Fu’s suspicious eyes, Zhao Lang’s explanation sounded more and more feeble, and in the end, he could only let out a long sigh.

A bowl of water for a piece of land, who would believe it?

Zhao Long himself didn’t even believe it.

All right.

A few people from Wang Tiezhu’s yard found him just after noon, and

“My lord, we would like to discuss with you the amount of money for the work to be started and your requirements for the farm.”

Shopkeeper Liu said with a smile, talking business was supposed to be his trade.

Hearing the other party mention demands and money, Zhao Lang was relieved instead.

This is the right thing to do, if these people really wanted to give him a hand, Zhao Long wouldn’t dare to use them.

“The money is fine, I promise to pay enough, but my demands are not low.”

Shopkeeper Liu said with great confidence.

“As long as your son has enough money, just say what you want, we will definitely do it for you.”

Hearing these words, Zhao Lang nodded his head in satisfaction.

“Well, after that, I will write down the requirements for you, so you guys can come up with a proposal for me first.”

His requests were not small this time.

The teenagers’ dormitory classrooms had to be made out, right?

Xu Gui and his laboratory too.

The peasants also need a special area.

Wait some, even if you can’t build it all at once, you still have to leave the place open.

If we do the math, the hill is not enough, so let’s see if we can build a small two-storey building out of stone.

Anyway, the 40,000 taels of gold given by my cheap father had already arrived, so there was more than enough money to build the manor house.

Zhao Long went straight to his room and prepared to write down all his requests.

It wasn’t until the evening when Wang Cai came to bring dinner that Zhao Lang was only halfway through writing them down.

“My lord, let’s have something to eat first.”

Zhao Lang stretched out and nodded his head.

Man is iron, rice is steel.

Only when you have enough to eat can you have the strength to work.

Accepting the food, Zhao Lang asked, in passing

“Have they eaten yet, Elder Tian?”

Wangcai returned that

“Not yet, I have asked the servants to be preparing it, and it will be sent to the fields at once.”

Zhao Lang paused and frowned as he said.

“How can Elder Tian’s food for them wait?”

Wangcai was about to say something else when Zhao Lang waved his hand and said that

“Send my food first… Forget it, I’ll deliver it myself.”

Zhao Lang got up straight away and reloaded the food that hadn’t been touched.

Then walked towards the outside.

“Gongzi! This…”

Wangcai could not be persuaded, so he hurried to the kitchen, urging the cooks to hurry up and make it.

The food that Zhao Lang had brought over was a bit exquisite, but it was not enough to feed a few people.

Soon, Zhao Lang found Tian Lao and Xu Yue at the edge of the field.

All three were squatting on the ground, happily looking at the potato leaves that had slowly started to turn yellow.

“Elder Tian, let’s eat first.”

Zhao Lang greeted.

“The chief has brought food.”

Xu Yue took the food without ceremony, he had been living in the fields for the past few days and had really suffered some hardship.

Only as soon as he opened the food box, Xu Yue muttered that

“Chief, you’re being too stingy, so little is not enough to eat.”

Zhao Lang’s face warmed up, he really hadn’t thought about this, but he didn’t need to be so polite to his own people, and said that

“This is for Tian Lao, you will send it right away.”

“Oh.”

Xu Yue gave a disappointed oh and was ready to stop his chopsticks.

Tian Lao cheerfully said that

“Enough to eat, enough to eat, there’s already a lot.”

“Back then, when the six kingdoms were mixed up and there were disasters, the bark of the trees was also to be eaten.”

Hearing this, Zhao Lang was slightly stunned, he didn’t know that Tian Lao had actually had this experience too.

“Chief, your Zhuang is so big, of course you haven’t suffered anything.”

Xu Yue said unconcernedly at this time, before revealing a mysterious expression and saying that

“Hey chief, you haven’t seen a man-eater, have you?”

Snap!

Only when Xu Yue finished his words, he was slapped on the top of his head by Tian Lao, the

“A human tragedy! No such frivolity in your attitude!”

Xu Yue stopped talking at once.

Zhao Lang sighed slightly, although he hadn’t experienced these things.

But he also knew how tragic the idiom of “Yi Zi Eating Each Other” was.

Tian Lao looked at Zhao Lang and said sincerely.

“Chief, this is why my farming family wants to help the farmers of the world, to avoid such tragedies from happening again.”

This was also a warning to Zhao Lang.

Zhao Lang also returned, in all seriousness

“Don’t worry, Elder Tian, Zhao Lang wouldn’t dare to act recklessly against the farmers of the world.”

In the entire world, no one knew the power of the peasants better than he did.

Elder Tian nodded with a smile and said that

“I know that you have compassion for the peasants and are a good boy.”

“So whatever you do, don’t forget your true heart.”

Zhao Lang blushed, this bit of his heart was as transparent as it was in front of these people.

It was a good thing that Wang Cai arrived just in time.

“My lord, the food is here for you!”

At once, everyone began to enjoy the food.

With the previous conversation, Zhao Lang also cherished the food a little more.

After eating, Zhao Lang was about to persuade Tian Lao to go back to live in the manor, after all, the old man’s health was important.

Suddenly, he saw an extremely bright shooting star falling from the sky.

Before Zhao Lang could make a wish, he heard Tian Lao say with a few moments of grief that

“A star has fallen in the wild, a great sage has fallen!”

Zhao Lang just wanted to explain that this was a normal astronomical phenomenon.

But for some reason, an inexplicable grief surged up from his heart, as if he sensed something.

Two lines of tears flowed unconsciously from his eyes, and Zhao Lang froze in his tracks.

“What’s happening to me?”
