"How much does Yuanlin's farm cost?" Wang Jingyu couldn't help but ask Yuanlin next to him when he was wandering around with Manager Liang.
"More than two thousand taels."
Wang Jingyu looked at Yuan Lin in surprise: "Did I hear wrong, or did you say wrong? Such a big farm, with so many fruits, there must be someone who would buy it for 7,000 or 8,000 taels? And you gave it to our family for more than 2,000 taels?"
This is too unbelievable.
"Well, the other party likes the young lady more." Yuan Lin pondered for a moment and continued, "When I bought the farm, I also got more than ten acres of sweet potatoes, peanuts and sandy land as a gift."
Wang Jingyu turned around and looked at Yuan Lin seriously: "Does the other party really have no other ideas or purposes?"
It's such a good place, and they gave us more than ten acres of sandy land and the food from the land. Didn't they come here with a purpose
“…” Yuan Lin didn’t know what to say for a moment.
"There is no purpose, but the young lady asked the young master to get the other party's address. She will probably send something to them during the New Year and other festivals in the future." Yuan Lin was not surprised by Wang Jingyu's worries. Anyone would probably have the same reaction when hearing about such a thing. It was more normal for him to do so.

"The young master was there at the time. If he really had an ulterior motive, he would have stopped the young mistress from buying it. You can rest assured about this." Yuan Lin explained again.
After hearing Yuan Lin's words, Wang Jingyu was completely relieved: "It's good that he has no purpose. I was worried that the other party had a purpose."
After walking around, Wang Jingyu planned to invite a few classmates to come over and play, and then go home for dinner, since this place was not far from his home.
"Xiao He, I'm going to play with my classmates the day after tomorrow. Let's go home for dinner. How about you make us something delicious?" In Wang Jingyu's opinion, the food outside is not as delicious as what his sister cooks.
"Okay, contact your classmates first and tell me after you confirm how many people there are." Wang Jinhe said after thinking for a while.
If there are more people, they can have barbecue.
"I had someone make a barbecue table. If there are many of you, why don't you just grill the meat? It's more fun to do it yourself. Those rich young masters have definitely never done it before, so it's not a bad thing to try it."
“This is good.”
That afternoon, Wang Jingyu went to see his classmate, and when he came back, he brought someone back with him.
“Brother, what are you doing…” Wang Jinhe looked at the person who came back with Wang Jingyu and asked curiously.

Wang Jingyu touched his nose awkwardly and said, "Xiao He, Luo Su's family has a lot of rice fields. Although we have hired some long-term workers, it takes about two months to harvest the rice every autumn. There will be losses when it rains. I heard that we have a thresher at home. I want to rent it. Do you think it's okay?"
"Sure, what's wrong with that? I have five more at home. How many do you want to rent? And how long will you rent them for?" Wang Jinhe looked at Luo Su and asked.
"My family has more than 900 acres of rice. Sister Xiaohe, how long do you think it will take to harvest them all?" Russell asked Wang Jinhe.
"Oh, my father mentioned before that it's fifty cents per mu of land, so you should just follow this price. Don't damage my thresher, because it cost me more than ten taels of silver to make it. So I want you to pay a deposit of fifty taels of silver. If the thresher is not broken, I will return it to you later." Wang Jinhe thought about it and expressed his thoughts.
Russell was shocked when he heard that the price was only fifty cents per mu: "Isn't this too cheap?"
"You are my eldest brother's friend. If someone you know wants to use the land after you use it, then the price will definitely not be this high." Wang Jinhe said bluntly, "If someone asks you, just say one hundred coins per acre of land." This price is just right.
I believe everyone would agree to spend one hundred coins per acre of land to quickly harvest the rice, especially a wealthy family like the Luo Su family.
"But after your family has collected it, others will probably have collected it too." It is estimated that it will not be useful by then.
"You are wrong. My father's good friend has 3,000 acres of rice. Because they can't harvest all of it, they lose about a thousand taels of silver every year. When the time comes, this thresher will be used by their family. You can definitely make some money. Don't ask for a hundred coins. Just give it 300 coins. They will definitely want it. If you have time now, hurry up and make more of this. This way you can make more money."
Wang Jinhe looked at Luo Su with a strange expression: "Are you helping me to make money?"

"How can this be called a scam? Three hundred coins for an acre of land, how much is that? It saves him a lot of money." Luo Su said bluntly.
Wang Jinhe looked at Luo Su with a twitching mouth. If this isn't called a scam, then what is
"I don't need that much. One hundred coins is just right. Any more would be inappropriate." Wang Jinhe shook his head: "According to what you said, with three thousand acres of land, I can also make three hundred taels, right?"
"Okay, now that you've said that, what else can I say?"
"Then you can take people to pull the thresher. I have one here, and the rest are on the farm." Wang Jinhe said, "You can ask the farmhands to go to your place and teach your people how to use it. It's very simple and they can learn it at a glance."
"Okay, Jingyu, come with me."
Luo Su returned home with the thresher. His father was worried about the autumn harvest. Last year, nearly 100 acres of rice in his family's fields were soaked in water, and he didn't know how much rice would be harvested this year.
"What is Dad worried about?"
"The autumn harvest has begun. What is Dad worried about?" said the head of the Luo family unhappily.
"Dad, I'm here to solve your problem. Jingyu, you know that, right?"

"I know. Isn't this your classmate? You bought melons from his house before." Mr. Luo knew about his son's classmate. He often heard his son say how much Wang Jingyu took care of him in the academy, and how he often brought delicious food to them from home.
"Jingyu's family just bought 70 acres of land a while ago, which belonged to Landlord Zhang. They harvested all the land in just two and a half days."
"Are you busy joking? Do you think your father is so stupid?" The head of the Luo family glared at his son and said unhappily.
"Really? His sister has developed a threshing machine. After I heard about it from Jingyu, I went to his house and rented the threshing machine. This year, our land can be harvested in a month at most. Not only that, I also invited a farmhand from Jingyu's family to come over and let him teach our farmhand how to use it. What do you think, Dad? Am I very foresighted? It's better to strike first than to be strong."
"That's great. Let me take you there to have a look."
Luo Su took the head of the Luo family to see the thresher. When he saw it, there was doubt in his eyes. Can this thing really work
