Chapter 399: Selling Treasures

Translator: Lonelytree 

If Lin Yuelan wanted to expand the land to build a bigger house without paying anything, it would be unreasonable. Then, she would be criticized by others.

Lin Yuelan knew that Grandma Zhou was reminding her out of good intentions, so she nodded and said, “yes, don’t worry, grandma Zhou. I know what to do. They no longer have anything to do with me, and I’m not someone who takes advantage of others. If they want money, I’ll give it to them, but they can forget about scamming an extra coin from me.” They would get a fixed and fair price from Lin Yuelan.

When Grandma Zhou heard this, she was slightly relieved. She nodded and said, “As long as you know what you’re doing.”

The three of them chatted for a while more before Lin Yiwei walked in angrily.

Seeing the anger on Lin Yiwei’s face, his wife immediately went up to him and asked, “Husband, what’s wrong with you? Who made you angry?”

Lin Yiwei said angrily, “who else could it be? Lin Laosan and Li Cuihua are really shameless. I’m so angry. ”

His wife patted Lin Yiwei’s back and comforted him, “don’t be angry. It’s not good for your health. Alright, don’t be angry.”

Lin Yiwei’s anger slowly subsided under the comfort of his wife. He said, “do you know what Lin Laosan said? He said that since Qing ‘Er’s legs have been cured, this is a non-issue. He says that we’re purposely taking revenge on them by using public power. He threatens me to bail Lin Erniu out of prison. So f.u.c.king shameless!”

Lin Yiwei was so angry that he cursed.

“What?” His wife immediately screamed, “Lin Laosan is really shameless. What does he mean that everything is fine since Qing ‘Er is cured? Does that absolve them of the horrible things they’ve done? If we really let them go like this and there is no punishment, then my Qing ‘Er’s years of suffering would have been in vain?”

The more she spoke, the angrier she became. She immediately rolled up her sleeves and turned to walk towards the door. She said loudly, “No, Lin Laosan’s family is too shameless. I go argue with them. At most, we’ll just send all three of them to prison. At least we won’t need to hear their complaints all day then.”

“Come back!” Lin Yiwei immediately stopped her and said, “that’s enough. You’ll have a better result reasoning with a bull than with them. They have a lot of unreasonable and twisted reasons. Even if you go, you’ll only get yourself angered. Just stay at home.” Li Cuihua was truly unreasonable. Arguing with her would only make you angrier.

Grandma Zhou calmed down. Lin Yiwei turned to his son and saw Lin Yuelan.

“Lan ‘Er, you’re here.” Lin Yiwei asked. “What’s the matter?”

His wife beat him to it. “Lan ‘Er wants to build a house. She’s here to talk to you about buying the land.”

Lin Yiwei was very surprised. He asked, “Lan ‘Er, are you really going to build a house?”

Lin Yuelan nodded and said, “yes.”

“What kind of house do you want to build?” Lin Yiwei asked again.

Lin Yuelan didn’t hide anything. “It’s a big tile-roofed house. It has a big courtyard.”

Li Zheng’s family of three was surprised. The house sounded very expensive to build.

In the county, it would cost at least five to six hundred taels to buy such a large tile-roofed house with three entrances and three exits. Even if he built one in the countryside, it would cost at least three to four hundred taels.

But Lin Yuelan had just bought land not long ago and still had to support so many people. Did she still have money on her?

Lin Yiwei asked worriedly, “girl, it’s very expensive to build that kind of house. It’s at least several times more expensive than ordinary houses. You have just bought the land some time ago, you …” Do you have enough money on you?

Lin Yuelan smiled and said, “Grandpa village chief, have you forgotten? I have some money from selling the tiger and ginseng. I have some money saved up.” Actually, that was not true. Lin Yuelan was serious when she said she wanted a big courtyard. She wanted to buy all the empty land around the house and then build a wall around it. It would cost her up to at least a thousand taels, which was double the amount.

Then, she still had to buy furniture and so on…

That was why she had to sell the milkvetch.

Lin Yiwei nodded and asked, “sure. Do you know how much land you want and which land you intend to buy?”

Lin Yuelan nodded and replied, “I plan to buy all the empty land around my current hut. As for who owns the lands, I’m not too sure. I’ll have to trouble grandpa village chief to ask.”

The rest was dumbfounded when they heard this. That was a lot of lands.

That was at least a hundred Zhang, or more than a hundred mu of land. How big a house was she planning to build?

Lin Yuelan’s hut was at the end of the village, adjacent to the mountains. Almost no one lived there due to the beasts in the mountains. Therefore, it was mostly empty houses and fields there. Some people grew vegetables there, but that was it.

It could be said that Lin Yuelan was the only one who lived on that piece of land.

But she was going to purchase all of the lands there…
