Chapter 1642: Zhongju!
Lonelytree
Lin Mingqing passed the imperial examination.
This was a joyous occasion worth celebrating.
This was not only for Lin Yiwei!s family but also for the entire Lin Family Village.
Therefore, since they were going to celebrate, they had to hold a banquet.
Ever since Lin Yiwei stepped down from his position as the chief of the Lin Family Village two years ago, he felt much more relaxed.
He did not have to run around the Lin Family Village every day, nor did he have to worry about the villagers of the Lin Family Village every day.
Their family was just ordinary villagers in Lin Family Village.
When he had time, he would also go to the Lin family garden to chat with the two old men.
As for the rest of the family, other than the youngest son, who needed to study, the others worked at sunrise and rested at sunset.
Moreover, in the past two years, because of the improved methods of crop cultivation issued by the imperial court, they made great gains.
Each mu of fertile land could produce five stones of grain. There were also those who diligently and meticulously managed the crops, which could produce six or seven stones per mu.
Compared to the past, each mu now had an increase of one to three stones.
In the past, no matter how good the crops were, they could only produce four or five stones per mu. This was the highest record. Usually, they could produce three or four stones per mu. Those who were worse could only produce less than one stone per mu.
In this way, after paying the agricultural tax, there was no surplus grain at all. There was no food or clothing, and they could only starve.
Now, the country had a bumper harvest in the past two years, and the tax revenue remained unchanged. Most of the farmers still had more than half of the surplus grain after paying taxes. The problem of food and clothing was naturally solved.
With extra food, they could sell it for money.
In the past two years, grain was like salt. The imperial government controlled the price of grain that merchants bought from farmers. It was not that merchants could lower or raise the price of grain just because they wanted to.
This was beneficial for farmers not to be bullied by merchants. Moreover, if merchants wanted to do grain business, they had to go to the government to apply for a grain purchase certificate!
As for how the merchants would sell the grain after receiving it, the merchants would set the price themselves.
The farmers of Longyan Country were overjoyed and excited about this move.
Therefore, the farmers’ lives were getting better and better.
Other than having enough to eat and wear, they could also have some extra money to buy one or two sets of new clothes for the whole family. Such a good life was something they did not dare to imagine in the past.
However, that was not the case for some farmers in Lin Family Village.
That was because they had been restricted from farming by Lin Yuelan.
If they couldn’t use the improved method of planting crops, it would mean that their harvest would be reduced by more than half. Other than paying various taxes, they wouldn’t even be able to feed themselves, let alone have surplus grain.
They could only watch as other people’s lives got better and better. They could only sit on the doorstep and sigh all day long, constantly resenting the people who went to the capital.
They cursed in their hearts, ‘If you want to sue the princess, then go ahead. Why did you implicate us?’
However, no matter how much they sighed and complained, it could not change the fact that they were getting poorer and poorer.
In the end, they couldn’t help but beg the Village Chief, oh no, Lin Yiwei. In the end, they were rejected by Lin Yiwei.
He said,” I’m no longer the village chief. It’s useless even if you beg me.”
Those people cried, “No, as long as the chief goes to Lin… Princess, to beg her. Otherwise, how are we going to live?”

Lin Yiwei’s face darkened as he said sternly,” You might as well plead with the princess yourself. It’ll be more sincere. Perhaps the princess will be merciful and let you off!”
Lin Changzhi’s mother’s expression froze, and then she said weakly, “But we’re afraid!” They were truly afraid of Lin Yuelan, who had already become a princess.
Lin Yiwei sneered at first. Then, he said disdainfully,” You’re afraid, but am I not? There is no such thing as wanting others to forgive him and gain benefits without sincerely apologizing! Also, the princess is already magnanimous. It’s only a small punishment for you, but you still have the face to ask the princess for forgiveness? I think you guys are really too stupid!”
“Village Chief, how can you say that?” Another family member who participated in the framing said.
Lin Yiwei looked at the furious woman with a sharp gaze. He said calmly, “Lin Jin’s wife, I’ve said that I’m no longer your chief. Also, did I say anything wrong? If it wasn’t for the princess’s magnanimity, which was only a small punishment for you, based on Lin Jin’s crimes, your entire family would have to be locked up in prison.. You would be locked up for ten to twenty years, or you would have to be beheaded! One had to know that the princess had an extraordinary status! ”
