most admirable is her strong learning ability. She's figured out my tricks."Smart, profit-making, and like tofu, about one jin of beans can make about one jin of thousand sheets."If we exclude the cos...Just as Li Yuhua was about to give up, a refreshing voice followed.

"Only a child would make a choice."

I want it all!

Silence.

Everyone was stunned into silence.

The yamen servant looked at Yang Lin as if he were a monster.

"What did you say"

"I said, I want to marry ten!"

Yang Lin said every word carefully.

All the women were stunned and looked at each other in surprise.

Li Yuyao's heart was filled with anger. This seemingly kind young man turned out to be a lecherous scoundrel

Zhao Fuguai hurriedly pulled Yang Lin aside.

"Yang Lin, this is not a joke!"

"I'm serious, San Ye. I'm not joking."

Yang Lin patted his pockets, but couldn't find any cigarettes.

“Taking one wife and nine concubines is all it takes, there’s nothing to be surprised about.”

In fact, he had already decided to do so before coming.

He wasn't acting impulsively, nor was he simply trying to help them escape their misery. Yang Lin had his own plans.

Is that all

Zhao Fugui's eyes widened.

"Not to mention that this master would charge one hundred wen, ten of them would be a thousand wen, a whole string of money!"

"Nor are we told of the spring taxes, autumn taxes, population taxes, land taxes... Ten people pay thousands of copper coins each year!"

"Just food, your three mu of poor land, it's not enough to feed so many people"

"Liu, the landlord, only took three concubines, and you want to take nine Are you crazy!"

Yang Lin walked up to Zhao Fugui and said with a smile, "Third Master, have you ever heard of the demographic dividend"

"What Population... red Profit What is that"

Zhao Fu貴 was dumbfounded.

Yet Yang Lin just gave a mysterious smile.

To Zhao Fugui's astonishment, Yang Lin walked over to the side of the yamen officers.

Zhang Wu let out a disdainful cold snort. “Kid, you want it all Fine! A thousand wen!”

He didn't believe anyone in the village could easily come up with a thousand coins.

Yang Lin shook his head. "Not yet."

"Dare you! You talk big without a penny to your name"

Yang Lin extended three fingers.

"Give me three days, three days, I promise to give you the money, and I'll swear it with my word."

The clerk sneered: "Why should I let you owe me money"

"Of course I won't take advantage of you, three days time, three hundred words in interest."

"Three days later, at the county office, one thousand three hundred wen. I will pay them in full."

"If I can't come up with the money, do whatever you want with me!"

The clerk was moved.

One thousand three hundred pieces, that's no small number.

He worked in the county government office, and his monthly salary was just over two hundred wen.

"Okay! But I have one more thing to add. If you still don't pay up by then, I'm taking all these women!"

The guard leered at Li Yunyao.

He didn't believe Yang Lin could pull it off

Having made a written agreement, when the time comes, I will not only receive the money but also gain the person's favor, achieving both ends successfully.

Zhao Fu貴 came too late to dissuade him, Yang Lin had already written the IOU.

"Goodness gracious, Yang Lin! You're so clueless!"

Zhao Fu Gui was so anxious that he stamped his feet.

That's a thousand three hundred taels. Even if Yang Lin borrowed money, he wouldn't be able to borrow that much given his family's circumstances.

"Let's get a marriage certificate."

Choose one as the legal wife, and the rest as concubines.

The displaced people went to the countryside in order for them to settle down and gain an identity.

A wedding ceremony is a necessary process. Even though Zhang Wu is reluctant, he has to go through with it.

Just as Yang Lin was looking at Li Yuyao.

"I! The legitimate wife!"

Li Yuxiang took the initiative to speak up. She would never be subservient!

The rest of the people looked surprised.

But some people were not convinced, but just as they were about to speak up, they saw Li Yuyao's sweeping gaze and instinctively closed their mouths.

That gaze, extremely domineering! Even Yang Lin took a sharp breath of cold air.

She, the legal wife.

Yang Lin pointed at Li Yuyao without hesitation. He blinked at the girl with her haughty gaze.

Li Yuxiang was furious.

She was once an empress, a daughter of wealth. Who dared to treat her so carelessly

However, at this moment, Li Yuyao also understood that the other party's decisive manner probably meant they had already made up their mind. They just chose not to reveal it, turning out to be a person of deep thought.

... which made her anxious.

Bad person!

Although she was chosen now, the thought of becoming the woman of this country bumpkin and lustful scoundrel... made Li Yuyao's heart flutter with anxiety and unease.

Ten wedding invitations, all neatly written, Yang Lin carefully collected them.

At this moment, he was extremely excited.

In my past life, I couldn't even afford to marry a wife.

And now, with just a little courage, one can marry ten women at once.

This damned feudal society!

"Li Yao Good name."

Looking at the pseudonym Li Yuyao had written on the marriage certificate, Yang Lin bowed slightly: "My name is Yang Lin, I have met you, madam. I am a scholar. From now on, I will be with you… oh, and all the other concubines, together through thick and thin, until we reach old age."

Yang Lin bowed respectfully.

He could be certain that Li Yao was definitely a young lady from a wealthy family.

And among those nine concubines, there were also a few with extraordinary temperament.

Looks can be deceiving, but temperament is something you can't fake.

As everyone was preparing to leave, someone walked over from afar.

This person is wearing a silk long gown, with a jade pendant at their waist. Although the weather isn't hot, they are still fanning themselves with a fan, pretending to be cultured.

So flamboyant, in the whole mountain village, only Liu Liang, the son of the landlord Liu Youcai, was like that.

"Let me see what kind of goods these are, if there are any pretty ones."

"Well, Yang Lin Could it be that you're also here to pick a wife"

"Haha, I heard you can't even afford to support yourself, and you're still looking for a wife Do you deserve one"

After giving Yang Lin a disdainful glance, Liu Liang turned his gaze to the village head, Zhao Fu貴.

"Uncle Three, what are you looking for Yang Lin to do"

"Just him What use is he!"

"Having trouble finding a wife Don't worry, even though I, the young master, already have three concubines, my Liu family can afford more! As long as you ask me, I, the young master, can take in two more wives without any problem!"

Liu Liang held his chin high, boasting about his "brilliant" achievements.

The entire mountain village, there were only him and his father, each having married three concubines.

He thinks he's superior to others and shows off everywhere.

Zhao Fuguai sneered: "Young Master Liu, you are late today."

"What do you mean" Liu Liang was taken aback.

Yang Lin has already signed the marriage contract with them, and they are now all Yang Lin's wives.

"Well, not too many. Just one wife and nine concubines."

Zhao Fuguang laughed and said.

He knows what kind of person Liu Liang is.

Liu Liang took the woman away, and after bringing her back, he beat and scolded her at will, not treating her as a human being.

In less than half a month, the girl could not bear the humiliation and hanged herself!

The Zhao and Liu families have a poor relationship. Zhao Fugui doesn't want these unfortunate girls to end up in the Liu family.

"What did you say"

"Yang Lin married one wife and nine concubines"

"How is that possible"

"I don't believe it!"

Liu Liang's face immediately fell.

"The marriage papers are signed. Whether you believe it or not, from today on, Yang Lin is the most wives-and-concubines-having man in our village."

Seeing the Liu family suffer a setback, Zhao Fugui felt a hint of satisfaction in his heart.

Liu Liang was dumbfounded.

When he looked again at the bustling scene around Yang Lin, his face turned pale with worry.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he fixed his gaze on Li Yuyao, a greedy look flashing in his eyes. He swallowed nervously.

He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life!

"Yang Lin, this little beauty I've taken a liking to!"

How much

What are you looking at me with that kind of eyes

"My goodness, that's scary!"

"Well, well, is that all you want Some money!"

Saying that, he pulled out a sliver of silver and tossed it at Yang Lin's feet.of Yang Lin still having over three thousand taels of silver, he finally felt a little more at ease.……At the same time, in front of Yang Lin's house.With the guard unit arranged to escort the bandits...
