In the famine, she stockpiled space supplies and became a bandit.
Chapter 90 Just like a dream
"What do you think is the yield per mu of wheat fields in our villa?" A young man holding a sickle asked excitedly while waiting by the wheat field.
"That's hard to guess. I've been farming for half my life, and I've never seen ears of wheat grow so long and so dense."
"I think five stones. The normal yield per mu in our Tongning County is only two to three stones. The wheat grown here in the villa is almost twice as good as our ordinary wheat, so the maximum yield is six stones." A gray-haired old master touched his chin and guessed.
"I think it's more than that. The wheat in the villa is much fuller than the one we grow ourselves. More than that..." Another citizen shook his head in disagreement.
"Hey, what are you guys guessing about? The harvest will start soon, and you'll know once you weigh the crops."
"Ha, we are so excited." The young man who started speaking scratched his forehead embarrassedly.
Everyone else smiled good-naturedly; they were also excited.
Not only the people working in the villa were excited, but also the people living nearby.
The night before, they heard from the farmhands that many people did not sleep well at night after the wheat was harvested at the villa. At dawn, they came to the wheat field in groups with dark circles under their eyes.
When everyone saw that others were in the same low spirits as themselves, they couldn't help but laugh.
"You guys are here to watch the boss start sickling?"
"Yes, yes, this is a big day, how can we miss it."
At this time, many landlords and gentry had also heard about this. They disguised themselves and mixed with the people, wanting to find out what was going on.
Suddenly, the wheat fields of Chaoyang Villa were crowded with people, and it was three times more lively than a market.
Xiao Yi, who was patrolling with his soldiers, was worried: "Military Advisor, what should we do? Should we drive them all away?"
"No defense." Yin Li didn't think it was a big deal. Instead, it could increase the people's confidence in the villa: "Just be careful and don't let people with ulterior motives mess things up."
"Okay, I got it." Xiao Yi thought about it, then quickly ran back to the barracks and gathered all the soldiers together.
"You all should know that today is the day we start harvesting wheat at our villa."
"I just went to see that many people from Tongning County came to watch the fun. Although most of them were civilians, there were also some people who wanted to see the boss make a fool of himself, or people with bad intentions."
"What? Who is it that is making fun of the boss?" The soldiers were instantly furious.
Although everyone was scolded by Luo Xi and cried for their parents after entering the barracks, they could feel that they had been reborn after this period of training.
The boss, whom they could never catch up with no matter how hard they tried, became the object of admiration in the hearts of all the soldiers.
Now there are people who want to make fun of the boss. This is absolutely intolerable.
"General, just tell me, what do you want us to do?"
Seeing that they were all filled with righteous indignation, Xiao Yi nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, it's worth it that the boss is so kind to you."
"Everyone, listen up. Go, put on your equipment and show them your best condition. Let them see that our villa is not to be trifled with."
All the soldiers' eyes lit up and they shouted, "Yes!"
After a while, teams of mighty and domineering soldiers appeared near the villa, especially beside the wheat fields.
They were wearing uniform armor, holding long spears that gleamed with cold light in their hands, and each of them had an expressionless face, looking heroic and resolute.
"Hiss, they are really bandits. I feel like they are more powerful than the county yamen runners." A new citizen said in disbelief.
A nearby villager glanced at him and said, "What do you know? Is our boss just an ordinary gangster?"
"She is the one who can beat all the bandits in Nanyue County until they cry for their parents. People trained by the big boss are naturally powerful. How can they be compared with ordinary bandits?"
The newly arrived civilians looked at the oppressive soldiers over there and dared not say a word.
As for those landlords and gentry who were in disguise, their originally contemptuous looks now became more solemn. It seemed that the method they had originally agreed upon had to be changed.
At this time, the real person Luo Xi finally came. She was wearing a red shorts, warm, clean and neat.
She was followed only by a maid, which was so simple that even the girls from wealthy families looked more impressive than her.
"Oh, it seems I'm the last one to get up." The first thing she said was a teasing smile, and she was very approachable.
The people all laughed instantly: "Hey, we are too impatient."
"Okay, since everyone is in a hurry, I won't waste any more words." Luo Xi took the sickle handed over by Zhou Cang, bent down and cut the first handful of wheat without any extra words.
"Okay, start harvesting," she shouted.
The gentry looked at each other in confusion. This was a little different from what they had imagined. It was too casual.
The farmhands who had been familiar with Luo Xi were used to it. They picked up their sickles one by one and started working as if they were competing.
"Boss, it looks like we have a great harvest today." Yin Li picked up the wheat that Luo Xi had just harvested, peeled a grain and put it in his hand. It was plump and round, and it was obviously good grain.
"It's a good harvest." Luo Xi looked at the golden wheat field and breathed a sigh of relief: "This way we don't have to worry about running out of money."
"Boss, why don't you go back and have a rest. I'll call you when they finish cutting the grass." Seeing that there was nothing to do here, Zhou Cang suggested.
Luo Xi shook his head: "No, it should be fast with so many people."
There were really a lot of people, because many people were waiting anxiously, so they took sickles and went to help.
"The people...most of them are still so simple and honest." Yin Li sighed.
Luo Xi was not the only one who was reluctant to leave. All the people who came to watch did not move, and were waiting for the final result.
It’s good to have more people working. In just a short while, all the wheat has been harvested.
After spending some more time weighing, they finally arrived at the part they were most concerned about: yield per mu!
"Military Advisor, how much?" Luo Xi asked.
"This, this, this..." Yin Li's hands were shaking as he held the paper. "Impossible, I must have miscalculated. Boss, please wait, I'll calculate it again."
He rubbed his eyes and started clacking on the abacus again, but the final result was the same.
Yin Li had to believe that their villa had a great harvest this time.
"Boss, the yield per mu is eight stones!"
……
"This is impossible, how is this possible?" The crowd exploded.
In their Tongning County, the best fields only yielded three stones per mu, while in the entire Tianqi Dynasty, the best yield was only four stones at most.
Eight stones, it’s like a dream.
The first reaction of those landlords and gentry was that Luo Xi might have deliberately staged a show to deceive everyone.
It is much simpler for the common people.
"That's great. My family has planted seven acres of land. We can harvest fifty-six shi of rice and we won't go hungry for the whole year."
"Yes, although we only have five acres, we have a small family and it is enough for us to eat. Besides, didn't the boss say that after the harvest, we can prepare the fields and plant other things, so we don't have to worry about having nothing to eat."
