Traveling back to ancient times begins with the use of stone tools

"Merge it, merge it. It's all your money anyway. If you don't mind, we have no objection either."

The village chief didn't expect that there were villages worse off than his own. Anyway, Leng Ruoxue was willing to spend money to support them, and they were all labor force and not a burden at all, so he had no objection.

Leng Ruoxue asked the clerk to change the household registration on the spot, with each family having one yard and one acre of land.

The village chief took the donated supplies and the brown rice brought by Leng Ruoxue and distributed them to each household. There were definitely not enough pots, as the villagers had just started to take care of their own stomachs. Pots were necessities, and no one would be willing to buy new ones unless they were seriously broken.

But Leng Ruoxue arranged for people to go to the county town to buy iron pots. All the villagers who donated items were given new ones in exchange for their old pots. The old pots were requisitioned first, and the villagers who did not have pots requisitioned were given a few feet of cloth.

The villagers didn't expect that they could get a new iron pot and be compensated with new cloth. It really shows that good deeds will be rewarded.

The village chief then arranged for each villager to take a family of new villagers to the allocated houses and teach them how to use them.

A few merchants who were waiting for soap in the village saw the misery of the people of Fufeng Village and spontaneously went to the village store to buy some brown rice and donated it.

He did the good deed without leaving his name and just had the store deliver it.

Whether it was intentional or not, Leng Ruoxue asked the staff in the convenience store to identify the customer and directly gave him the rights of a first-level supplier.

Nangong Yi was originally waiting to set off, but ended up accompanying him until now, "County Lady, I also donated rice, but there was no reward?"

"Yes, I built four new factories. The cement factory is for our own use in Qingyuan County and is not for sale to others. You don't get a share of it. You already got a share of the soap factory and the paper mill. The reward I'm giving you now is the share of the glass factory."

Leng Ruoxue just got all the products through Minglu.

"Glass factory?"

Nangong Yi was puzzled. What was that?

"It's the light bulbs and other things we use... Wait until the things are made, and then you can take a look. The division will be based on the old rules."

Leng Ruoxue didn't want to explain now, "Let's go, we're leaving now."

It's already late, but it doesn't matter.

The group took dry food and water and went up the West Mountain, and then... they saw... a fishing boat coming from afar.

"Junzi, why are there so many hunters on this mountain? Aren't the people in Heyuan County afraid of wolves?"

"Father Liu, do you think there will be any problems if we enter Heyuan County like this?"

"What's the problem with that...Run, they are government officials."

Old Man Liu, who felt a little guilty, discovered the bailiff.

Leng Ruoxue wanted to bring the yamen runners with her to prove her identity and to go there to draw the boundary, but who knew that the fishing boat would be scared and turn around.

"Boatman, don't run, come back!"

Leng Ruoxue became anxious and shouted hurriedly. She wanted to know how long it would take to travel by water, but now it's ready.

"Junzi, Shanzi, row quickly, and we will pretend we didn't hear anything."

Old man Liu urged the two young men who were rowing the boat.

Leng Si thought that the people on the boat didn't hear him, so he shouted, "Stop the boat in front, come over!"

The boat turned around and ran away, obviously it heard it.

"Leng Yi, stop them"

Leng Ruoxue got so anxious that she stopped even calling him Master Nan.

Leng Yi glanced at Leng San. Leng San picked up a stone and started skipping it on the water. Then, using the stone as a force, he flew onto the boat and drew his sword.

The three men didn't dare pretend they didn't hear it, so they rowed their boats back obediently.

As soon as the boat reached the shore, the three knelt down and said, "Sir, spare us, I was just curious and thought it was safer to take the water route, so I came here to take a look. I just came here and have not done anything."

“Bring them up here”

Leng Ruoxue told Leng San that the water surface was a bit high from the shore and they definitely couldn't get up by themselves.

Leng San carried two people ashore, one in each hand.

As soon as they got ashore, they knelt down and kowtowed.

"Tie up the boat and come up together. I have something to ask you."

Leng Ruoxue was afraid that Leng San would just lift the person up and the boat would run away.

The two people who were lifted up helped to tie the boat, and the rest of the people were pulled up.

"Why don't you kneel down before our county lord?"

The bailiff scolded the three fishermen who were standing there.

The three fishermen knelt down hurriedly.

"Everyone, get up. Don't be nervous. Sit down and talk!"

Leng Ruoxue found a stone and sat down.

The three fishermen stood up, looked around, and then sat down on the spot.

"Come closer, it's not sunny. Don't be afraid. I'll ask you a few questions. If you answer them well, there will be a reward."

After hearing this, the three of them stopped being nervous and found a shady spot close to Leng Ruoxue to sit down.

Except for Nangong Yi who found a stone to sit on, everyone else who was accompanying them stood behind the two of them.

"Where do you come from?"

Leng Ruoxue asked knowingly that acting must be done in full.

"My Lord, we are fishermen from Xihai County."

"This waterway leads to Xihai County?"

Leng Ruoxue pretended to be surprised.

"Yes"

“Why hasn’t anyone been here before?”

"This waterway just appeared, and we came in to take a look because we were curious about where it leads to."

"How long does it take to get to Xihai County by this waterway?"

This is what Leng Ruoxue is concerned about.

"We walked and looked around for about four hours."

Old Man Liu made an estimate.

Leng Ruoxue didn't expect that the water route was so fast. After thinking about it carefully, she realized that the mountain road required avoiding rocks and trees, but the water route did not require that.

4 hours is equivalent to 8 hours, which is understandable.

"Since the waterway is open, you can bring sand or seafood you catch to sell. This is Lengjia Village in Qingyuan County. It takes about half an hour to get to the county seat. When you go back, please bring two people to Xihai County for me. This is a reward."

Leng Ruoxue gave the fisherman one or two ounces of silver and said, "You can go to the village and take a look. I will go and call someone."

After saying that, he left a yamen runner behind, "What about you?"

She looked at the four cold ones again.

"Let's... go over and take a look."

Nangong Yi insisted on going to take a look.

"It's up to you!"

Leng Ruoxue brought a fisherman back to the villa and asked him to wait. She also called Uncle Liu and explained to him the matters of building the dock, collecting sand, buying boats, recruiting sailors, and setting up boundary signs.

Seeing Liu Datong standing there without moving, he said, "Uncle Liu, I told you to bring a few assistants with you, but you said you didn't need them. Now you can't do it anymore!"

"County Lady, I'm carrying it with me, but I'm a little worried."

"If you don't let people go, you will never know their abilities. Just let them go and do it."

Leng Ruoxue had met the people brought by Liu Datong several times, and they were quite considerate in their work.

Liu Datong then went out. He assigned the matter of building a factory in the village to his subordinates, and told them that they could consult his wife or the county lord if they had any questions. Then he took a fishing boat to Xihai County to handle the work.

Liu Datong, who had never been on a boat before, started to feel seasick all the way.

Leng Ruoxue arranged for people to go to the quarry to transfer people, so as to repair the road on the mountain before Liu Datong came back. There were no explosives, and it all depended on manual labor, and it would take time to mine rocks.
