I rely on infrastructure systems to build a prosperous village

"That's not the case, Youtian." Mrs. Wu pushed the door open and walked in. Because she pushed the door too hard, it hit the wall with a "bang".

Li Lan looked at Mrs. Wu who walked in hurriedly with red eyes, and immediately stood up and walked over, helping her to sit down on the chair.

"Youtian, you always think that it was my father who betrothed me to you, but why haven't you ever thought that it was me who was attracted to you? Back then, when you became my father's disciple and I saw you for the first time, I was attracted to you. I only have brotherly feelings for my senior brother. Even if you weren't here, I wouldn't have married him."

At this point, Mrs. Wu couldn't help but wiped away her tears. Li Youtian saw her crying and quickly stood up and walked over to wipe her tears. He said softly, "Okay, don't cry. I know how you feel."

He sighed and continued, "My senior brother was very upset with Master because of this incident. Not long after we got married, he left the sect and disappeared without a trace. But just when we thought we could live a peaceful life like this, one day, my senior brother came back and met Master. We didn't know what they said in the study. He left with a gloomy face, and Master was also very angry. That night, Master told us to pack up and leave with the children. Before leaving, Master gave me the Book of Zhenmen, saying that if I could meet someone with kindness and strategy in my lifetime, I could give it a try and carry forward the sect."

Hearing him say this, Mrs. Wu seemed to recall the past and couldn't help crying. After a while, she choked and said:

"That night, we followed Youtian back to Lijia Village. But for the next few days, I was restless and begged Youtian to find out if he could help me go back to see my father. I don't know how he talked to my father-in-law, but he went to the county town to get information. To his surprise, he learned that my father was dead and that more than 20 people in the entire mansion had been burned to death."

Li Youtian looked at her sad and grief-stricken expression, sighed, patted her shoulder distressedly, and said:

"Lady Lan, I later secretly inquired and learned that my senior brother had already married the daughter of the county magistrate, who is now the daughter of the prefect of Bozhou. Furthermore, from the clues, I suspect that he was closely related to Master's death. He has been searching for me all these years, hoping to find the Zhenmen Book in my hand. Fortunately, Master set very high standards for me back then, and spent all day honing his craft, without interacting with anyone else. That's why no one knows where my ancestral home is, and we have been able to live so peacefully all these years."

After saying this, Li Youtian quietly looked at the expression of Li Lan who was sitting opposite him, but was accidentally caught by Li Lan. Seeing him touching his nose in embarrassment, he smiled and said:

"I understand, Uncle Tian. You can just stay in Lijia Village and don't worry about anything else."

"But……"

Before he could finish his words, Li Lan raised his hand to interrupt him.

"I'll make arrangements in advance. Master Arita, trust me."

Looking at the confident Li Lan, Li Youtian and Mrs. Wu looked at each other and nodded.

The next day, at dawn, the yard outside Li Lan's house was full of people.

"Hey, you old guys came pretty early."

"You have to come early. Old man Li, why don't you tell us about these potatoes first."

"There's no way to tell. You'll see later."

"Miss Lan is out." said a man.

"This guy came quite early."

"You have to come earlier, Lan girl. You don't know that I haven't slept all night because I was thinking about potatoes." An old woman shouted.

When the others heard this, they also agreed with a smile.

A moment later, they appeared in front of the land that Li Lan's family had reclaimed. Before them was a large patch of green leaves with thick roots and stems, growing very well.

"This half acre is for sweet potatoes, but they'll have to wait three months. That half acre is for potatoes, but they can only be harvested once every two months. Who's going to dig them now?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone rushed forward. In the end, Li Hongwu, who was closer to Li Lan, took the initiative and walked over with a hoe.

When the other village heads saw Li Hongwu picking up the hoe, they rolled their eyes, said "Pooh" in their hearts, and thought to themselves: This old man Li is becoming more and more shameless.

Li Hongwu excitedly raised his hoe and dug deep. He pried the hoe upwards and brought up a pile of plump potatoes the size of a baby's fist, covered with soil.

Looking at what he had dug out, he immediately squatted down, picked up a pile of potatoes and started counting them.

"Eight, there are eight. This seedling has eight."

Hearing his excited shout, everyone was stunned and did not react. A moment later, cheers resounded through the sky, and everyone rushed forward to touch it impatiently.

"Hey, be careful, don't step on it."

"Hey, dig slower, you've ruined it."

……

After a while, half an acre of potatoes were dug out, and Li Jianping hurried over with a scale to weigh them.

"How much, how many pounds? Jianping."

"Hey, don't worry, don't disturb him."

After a while.

"A total of 1563 kilograms." After weighing the last basket, Li Jianping put down the scale and shouted excitedly.

"How many?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this number.

"1563 jins. Oh my goodness. Old man Li, little girl Lan, can you give us some of this..."

Village Chief Wang's voice was drowned out by the crowd's excited shouts.

"We won't have to go hungry anymore."

"Yeah, we can eat our fill too."

"Hahahaha, Lan girl is the lucky star of our village."

……

Seeing the happy expressions on everyone's faces, Li Lan couldn't help but laugh.

After a while.

"Old man Li, little girl Lan, what I just said is that I can buy it, and our village can buy it with money."

When the other two saw Old Man Wang lobbying, they hurried over and expressed their willingness to pay for it.

"Okay, let's listen to Lan's arrangements." Li Hongwu couldn't help but say as he looked at their anxious expressions.

"No need to buy. Sweet potatoes and potatoes together make 100 kilograms. Liujiawan is crowded, so 200 kilograms is enough. But I have one condition."

When they heard this, they were so excited that they wanted to kneel down to Li Lan.

"You tell me, we can agree to any conditions you have."

Li Lan smiled and said, "If there are those who don't believe it, there's no need to send it. If anyone wants it later, let them buy it with money."

Without thinking, several people nodded in agreement.

Here, Li Hongwu felt heartbroken when he heard that so many sweet potatoes and potatoes had been given away. He said in a deep voice, "You must remember the kindness of our Lan girl, and don't let the people in your village become heartless people."

"Of course, that's even necessary." Several people said angrily.

Late at night, the entire Lijia Village fell into silence.

"Who?"

Three men in black quickly flew across the roof and ran towards the back mountain.

Friday and Saturday flew after it.

Li Lan, who was lying on the kang, suddenly opened his eyes, looked around, and saw that Wang Po and Zhang were already asleep. He quickly got dressed, stood up, and walked out.

"Xiaobao, locate."

"Okay, host, they are 1 kilometer away from the back mountain towards the west."

After listening, Li Lan ran towards the back mountain.

When she arrived, several people were fighting fiercely with swords flashing and sabers flying. Soon, Friday and Saturday were at a disadvantage.

"Oh, you're bullying the weak with your numbers. I've killed animals, but never humans. Friday, Saturday, get out of the way."

Li Lan said sternly, sneered, raised the crossbow in his hand, aimed at the three people, and was about to pull the trigger.

"Girl, don't be angry. We are sent by His Majesty." One of the men in black shouted loudly.

"Oh, you said it was His Majesty's man, right?"

"Girl, this is my token."

Friday and Saturday stepped forward to take the token, looked at the words "Dark Guard" on it, and nodded towards Li Lan.

Li Lan lowered his crossbow and frowned at the group. They were quite ordinary in appearance and height, the kind of people who wouldn't even glance at if they walked down the street. He thought to himself, "Emperor Huide is truly extraordinary. Training someone like him is no easy feat. If only there were a few more of them."

If Emperor Huide, who was far away in the palace, could hear Li Lan's thoughts at this moment, he would definitely curse: "What do you think it is? You want more? Do you know how precious one is? Eat your ass."

"When did you arrive here?"

"Just now."

"What are you running for?"

"We suspected that the two were gathering information, so we wanted to lure them here."

After hearing his words, Li Lan nodded.

"Introduce yourself."

Several people looked at each other, bowed their heads, and said in unison:

"Please give me a name, young lady"

Li Lan raised his eyebrows and was delighted: It seems that they are all secret agents. The emperor is good to me. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Li Yan, Li Zhong, Li Liang."

"Thank you for the name, young lady."

"Tomorrow, you will find a way to come to me under another identity."

"Yes."

Bozhou Prefecture, the prefect's residence.

"Uncle, there is news."

The person sitting at the desk stood up immediately in shock.

"Where are they?"

"Lijia Village, An County."
