Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

This move eliminated the uneasiness in his heart that he always felt like an outsider, and also eliminated the worry that one day the old man would ask him to leave the Lin family's team.

Well shaved, well shaved.

The hunter’s young wife: …When the old man was so angry that he was fuming, my husband was still laughing heartlessly. Could it be that he was scolded stupidly by the old man?

……

Mr. Lin closed his eyes and suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart. The people here are all sincere and stay here. Although each family has their own little thoughts, they are not bad. He hopes that they can stick together and never take it for granted and ask for things from others. Otherwise, one day, they will pay the price for everything they have done.

But he doesn't want to see that day.

Everyone looked embarrassed and guilty. They took out the silver they had carefully put away and gave it to the third girl, apologizing to her repeatedly.

Lin Xiaoyue didn't answer and rejected them all.

If we say that we gave compensation to the five of them, then there is no reason to take it back.

But she also listened carefully to what Mr. Lin said.

From now on, when no one’s life is in danger, she will let go appropriately and will no longer act on her own and deprive everyone of their opportunities for growth.

Everyone expressed their gratitude upon hearing this. As long as their lives were threatened, San Ya would not ignore them. As for other matters, they were all adults, not children. They would definitely solve the problems they could solve themselves, and the ones they couldn't solve... they would just find a way to face the challenges head on.

"Okay, now let me tell you two things." After Grandpa Lin finished his lecture, he stomped the ground with his walking stick, and his expression softened. "First, everyone knows the benefits of ice basins. I'll let Chun Xing teach you step by step. From now on, make the amount for the next day before going to bed every night. Make the ice bigger so that it can last longer. This way, everyone won't have to suffer so much during the day."

"At the same time, tomorrow all the men will move out the food from the cellar under the rockery in the courtyard and put it all in the back rooms of the third and fourth courtyards. As for the empty cellar, you have one day free tomorrow, and you can go to the town to get the customized distillation tools the day after tomorrow. Don't waste time, go make ice, and store the ice in the cellar for emergency use."

"Okay."

"Order."

After being scolded by the grandfather, everyone felt that it was not good enough to be obedient. They were like students in the academy, listening carefully to the teacher's lecture, and they believed whatever the grandfather said.

"Yeah." Grandpa Lin looked at the teachable people with satisfaction, and then slowly uttered two words, "Share the money."

When the two words came out, everyone was shocked. Soon the cheers were deafening and almost blew the roof off. The whole hall was filled with joy.

Under everyone's expectant gaze, Grandpa Lin began to report the accounts. "I won't go into details about how the 50,000 taels of silver came from. Twenty percent will be given to San Ya first. This was also agreed upon by everyone early on. Come, San Ya, take the 10,000 taels first."

In front of everyone, Grandpa took out two silver notes worth five thousand taels and gave them to Lin Xiaoyue. Everyone else was so excited seeing this because it was everyone's turn next.

"From the remaining 40,000 taels, after deducting the 2,300 taels we spent on buying the house yesterday, the 3,753 taels and 4 cents we spent on ordering and purchasing various materials, and the money we have left for the public treasury to use for turnover, we can divide the 25,000 taels into a share."

"Since everyone has contributed, if it is divided by household, there will be conflicts between families with more people and those with fewer people. So, do you have any objection to dividing it by headcount?"

"No."

"No."

"Okay." Grandpa Lin nodded and continued, "Doctor Qiao and Doctor Li were summoned to Black Wind Ridge. Although they are not present, without their selfless dedication, we would not be able to live a peaceful and happy life today. Therefore, their share is still counted. Do you have any objection?"

"No."

"No."

"The mute medicine boy followed the two doctors into the mountains, and he is counted as one person. Xiaomaizi is too small to be counted as a person. Although Xiaosi and Xiaowu are small, they also help add firewood and watch the fire, so they are counted as half a person each. Do the third brother's family and everyone else have any objections?"

"No."

"No."

"Okay, 25 people will share taels, which means each person will get taels. If everyone has no objection, then we will divide it this way."

Everyone was shocked. What was there to object to?

Grandpa has clearly sorted out how much money each person can get, so what is there to object to?

One thousand taels per person, that's not every household, everyone must be so happy, okay?

Get rich, get rich.

So, no one raised any objections, and everyone received their share of the money.

Some people were laughing while holding the banknotes, some were crying while holding the banknotes, and some were shaking like a sieve and could not even utter a complete word...

After a commotion, Grandpa Lin waved his hand and drove the excited crowd back to their rooms. He also reminded everyone that no matter how excited they were, they still had to go to bed early because there was still a lot of work to do tomorrow and they couldn't delay.

Everyone took the money, smiled so hard that their teeth were showing, and nodded to Grandpa Lin continuously, indicating that they would definitely get up earlier tomorrow than today to prepare the work.

However, the person who said this was so happy that he was crazy. Whether he could really do it or was just answering with lip service, Grandpa was too lazy to care.

In fact, he was also very excited. Four people in his family worked hard and got four thousand taels. He was also very happy, okay?

But in front of a group of younger people, he still had to be polite and restrained, not wanting to be laughed at. He just wanted to go back to his room quickly, close the door and laugh to his heart's content.

That night, everyone was in high spirits and wanted to hold the banknotes and laugh all night long.

Who would have thought that these peasants, who work hard in the fields all their lives and live frugally, could not even save 1/10 of what is here.

Now, a natural disaster has struck, forcing them to leave their homes, but they can still get such a large sum of money. It is simply incredible.

On the fourth day of staying at the manor, everyone got up early to do some work as they had said last night, but everyone had two big dark circles under their eyes. It was obvious that they had not saved the energy to make everyone excited last night.

When we woke up early in the morning, everyone looked at each other. Okay, no one laughed at each other, and we got moving quickly.

The whole kitchen was steaming hot and filled with everyone's happy laughter, and everyone was muttering about how to plan how to spend the money.

Of course, the men are not idle after washing up. They put the saltpeter, plates and water in place in advance. After breakfast, they can start working directly.

After breakfast, Lin Xiaoyue took Chunxing, Xiaosi and Xiaowu for a stroll in the barren hills behind.
