The Blessed chapter 36: Zhao & Han Husband and Husband; Money-making Plan (2)

“Of course it’s true, so we should try to save money, and then we can hire people to dig our two mu of wasteland into a pond, and buy more fry to put in, there will be endless fish to sell in the future.”

Finally his eyes stayed on the face of big bun, Ling Jingxuan stretched out a hand to rub his head tenderly, so the son should have some confidence now?

“Ah? It costs money again?”

Hearing that they had to spend money to hire labors, big bun instantly frowned, Ling Jingxuan couldn’t help laughing. Two mu big fish pond. You can’t let him dig it himself, right?

“If you really can raise them, it wouldn’t be a thing to hire some labors to dig the pond. Xiaowen, you can’t save this money.”

Han Fei was also clearly aware of big bun’s stingy temperament. Ling Wen reddened his face, stammering, “I, I know…”

He just wanted to save money, but never said he wouldn’t pay.

“Ha ha…”

Seeing this scene, Ling Jingxuan and other people couldn’t help laughing. Ling Wen was stingy, but isn’t he also their fun fruit?

Those people were talking and laughing all the way, small bun was also very excited and active, often saying some funny words from time to time. On the way, Ling Jingxuan suddenly saw a vast wasteland, barely no grass. In the countryside, this is undoubtedly a waste. What is the most important thing for farmers? Of course, the land. But now large areas of land, because of drying up of the inland sea tributaries, were abandoned. Many people would suffer.

“What a bit! How I wish I could grow something on those fields.”

Aware of his sight, Ling Jingpeng lamented. A lot of people in the village owned no land, let alone outsiders like them. Some people only had one or two mu of land, after paying taxes they barely had food left. Especially in recent years, the wasteland in Lingjiang basin was almost all assarted, some people even bought homestead to plant things, and most crops couldn’t survive on it. Like Ling Jingxuan’s two mu of land, it was homestead. Otherwise, they wouldn’t often starve for having no food.

“Hehe…”

Smiling at him, Ling Jingxuan suddenly said, “Brother Zhao, can you stop? I want to go there to have a look.”

Saying so, he also don’t wait for the cart to stop, Ling Jingxuan directly jumped off.

“Daddy…”

“Xiaowen, you kids stay in the cart. I’ll be right back.”

Seeing this, the two buns also were ready to jump off, but Ling Jingpeng and Han Fei quickly grabbed them, and after the cart stopped, the kids hopped off and followed.

“Half saline-alkali land, indeed.”

Ignoring the three people who wanted to say something, Ling Jingxuan squatted down and dug some soil and sent into his mouth. As early as from the owner of the memory about the situation around to Ling village, he guessed this piece of land was likely to be formed because of sea water, now it turned out to be true. No wonder whatever those villagers planted, they wouldn’t survive. That was because it was all saline-alkali soil.

“I remember the sear water pours in about October every year? Is the water level high? How long does it take to reflux?”

Turning his head to them, Ling Jingxuan asked solemnly. A fortune-making idea in the heart was vaguely rooted, but…the money he needed was not a small amount!

About this thing, Ling Jingpeng and Han Fei were not very clear, so they both turned to Zhao Dalong, therefore, Ling Jingxuan also turned to him.

“Well, every year around the middle of October the water from the tributaries of the inland Sea pours in. The water level is not very high, maybe a foot or so. It takes a month or two to flow backward.”

Facing three people’s expecting eyes, black, strong and tall Zhao Dalong can not help feeling a bit shy, but the words were said very clearly.

“That’s it. Come on, let’s go to the fair.”

Hearing that, Ling Jingxuan felt extra excited. It was June now. There were still four months away from October, but to implement his plan, he must save at least one thousand taels of silver, although it was very difficult, it depends on human effort, right? Haha… Make a fortune this time!

“Ge, what are you talking about?”

The three of them were so bewildered by him that they did not know what excitement he was in, that he could really grow something in that wasteland?

One had to say, what they thought was the truth, although they did not believe it themselves.

“Nothing. It’s all empty talk now. I’ll tell you more when the time is right.”

Turning to give them a mysterious wink, Ling Jingxuan showed mischievous look, three people took a look at each other, scratching their heads, looking at his slender figure with more doubts and curiosity.

“Daddy, what are you looking at?”

The cart started again, small bun left Tiewa there and climbed onto Ling Jingxuan’s lap and curiously asked, big bun also turned to him, Ling Jingxuan pinched his nose, saying mysteriously, “Of course I’m looking at money.”

“Daddy lied. It’s only a large wasteland. Where is the money?”

Small bun complained, mouth pouted, while big bun also threw him a look of contempt, but Ling Jingpeng and the other two adults quietly pricked up their ears, they always felt Ling Jingxuan’s words hid deep conception, which they could not get to now.

“Haha… Why would I lie to you? Just wait and see. Daddy will turn that barren, half-salted land into gold and silver one day.”

Some things that were said too much would make people think he is crazy, and when the day comes, they will know.

“Daddy, you want to buy those fields, don’t you?”

Small bun was still confused, but big bun was sensitive, staring at him with alert. God knows he now was most afraid of his daddy saying to make a lot of money, because every time with his whimsical idea, the family money would be like water to spend, such as buying those pots and digging pond to raise fish…

“Ahem… Xiaowen, how could you make money without spending money? A business needs capital. Come on…Don’t be mad. Let me tell you. This time, I won’t cost a copper coin from you, OK?”

On halfway of his words, he saw that big bun was about to complain, Ling Jingxuan hurriedly raised his hands to surrender. He really got him.

“My money, your money, it’s all our money, isn’t? Daddy, here is the thing. We really shouldn’t spend money like that…”

Oh no, again, big bun was chattering like chanting, Ling Jingxuan only felt pains in the forehead, only wishing to seal his mouth immediately. Ling Jingpeng, Han Fei and others all curled their lips on seeing this. Big bun was always behaving. But whenever it came to money, he would change into another person! Really giving one a headache, right?
