Lin Caisang took it and placed it in her arms, thinking deeply.
“I want to take advantage of the fact that everyone in the village hasn’t started farming yet, and dig a twenty-acre pond on the top of the mountain. There are many people in our village, and all the uncles and aunts have plenty of strength, so it shouldn’t be difficult to dig a pond.”
“A twenty-acre pond, have you gone mad?” Lin Caihe widened her eyes, thinking that Lin Caisang had simply gone crazy.
Twenty acres of mountain land, how much grain could be planted in a year, and what use would it be to dig a pond there instead, wasn’t Lin Caisang mad if not?
“What’s mine is mine and it’s up to me to decide what to do with it. Do I need you to worry about it? Stop trying to instruct me, I won’t indulge you anymore.” Lin Caisang glanced at her coldly.
“You…”
Lin Caihe opened her mouth, unable to say a word.
“Three hundred acres of mountain land, I think a twenty-acre pond should be enough. In the future, there will be no need to worry that drought will cause our crops to fail.” Seeing that Lin Caihe kept silent, Lin Caisang turned to look at Lin Laogeng and shared her thoughts.
“As for the mountain land, I want to do some additional work and cultivate it into terraced fields or hills, which will make grain farming more convenient. However, to cultivate three hundred acres of mountain land will take some time, which may be a bit difficult.”

“It’s not difficult, not difficult at all,” Lin Changhong hurriedly shook his head.
“Yes, Changhong is right.” Ms. Lu of Lin Family also chimed in.
“It’s not the season for cubilose harvesting now, and everyone in the village is idle with nothing to do. These three hundred acres of land can be prepared quickly. SangSang, you don’t have to worry about this. Leave it to me.” She patted herself on the chest in assurance.
“Grandmother, to get all the uncles and aunts in the village to help, we have to pay them.” Lin Changfeng reminded them.
Everyone has a big family to support, it’s not a simple matter to come and work for their family. Even if these uncles and aunts were willing to come, they wouldn’t have the nerve to ask them, would they?
“What’s there to fear about labor costs? Isn’t your father working as a craftsman? In a few days, we’ll have him take a trip out and give it a try, he might be able to earn a lot of money,” said Ms. Lu of Lin Family, turning to Lin Baiyi.
“Besides, that labor cost doesn’t have to be paid immediately. We’re all in the same village, can’t we owe them a little bit?” She added, turning to Lin Laogeng.
“That’s right, Changfeng, your grandmother is correct.” Lin Laogeng nodded, agreeing with Ms Lu’s statement.
Baiyi has been living quite comfortably under Baizhong’s care these years, and it’s about time he repaid the favor. Besides, the villagers might feel embarrassed to accept the money when SangSang is ready to pay them.
However, what needs to be paid must be paid, it’s just a matter of sooner or later.
“Changfeng, you needn’t bother with these matters. Concentrate on your studies at home. We can’t afford to delay your examination for the provincial degree.”
“Brother Changfeng, don’t worry about the money. I’ve been digging for medicinal herbs these days. Selling these herbs can earn some money. If I dig for another half month, I will earn even more. I’m sure I can come up with the money for the wages,” said Lin Caisang, after some thought.
Spending every day on the mountains had its rewards, as there were plenty of herbs.
Though to prove her previous words about the diminishing supply of herbs on the mountain, she hadn’t hauled all the herbs back home, but they could be stored in her golden bead space.
If the silver wasn’t enough, they could simply take extra tasks. Surely, treating people’s illnesses wouldn’t mean they’d refuse to pay medical expenses, right?
