Chapter 179: 山贼改行种地

[Mountain Bandits Changed Profession into Farming]

“Five years and still mixed up like this, it shows that you people are really not the material to be mountain bandits.”

“Quickly change your profession!”

The moment Lu Yunluo’s words came out, the people underneath were not happy.

“What do we do if we don’t become mountain thieves?”

“Exactly! Just like us, no one would dare to use us even if we went to the capital.”

All of them, one by one, were fierce-looking.

There are also some who have a criminal record.

The average bosses would run away when they see them, so how could it be possible that they dare to use them seriously?

They couldn’t think of any other way to make a living besides using brute strength and robbing.

If there was another way, who would want to be a mountain bandit?

Lu Yunluo smiled faintly, “All of them will change their profession into farming for me!”

Ah?

The mountain bandits were stunned.

Farming?

They didn’t hear it wrong ba?

Letting a bunch of brigands to change their profession into farming?

“I’ve just seen it. Your geographical location is very good. The foot of the mountain is by the river, you can usually fish and shrimp, and then play games and pick some wild vegetables in the mountain. How can you starve (to death)? 

“You guys, this Qing Long Village is such a big place, with green mountains and water, the soil is also fertile. Open up the vacant land and turn it into farmland. It’s such a big place, the area to be reclaimed can’t be any smaller. Next year, we’ll be able to harvest grain, leave a year’s worth of food rations and sell the rest. How it is better than you guys now?”

“Moreover, I see that there are a lot of tea trees on this mountain. We must know, this tea can be expensive, and later divided out to sell. The silver earned will be more.”

This group of simple-minded (all brawn no brains guys), estimated that in their eyes, all the leaves look the same, right?

No wonder, after living here for five years, they don’t even know that there are a dozen tea trees growing in the woods behind them.

Originally, this group of mountain bandits also felt particularly unreliable when they heard that they were told to farm.

These days, how much money can you make from farming?

It’s already good if you could feed yourself. 

But after Lu Yunluo said this, she thought it was quite reasonable.

At least if you farm, you will have food every day, unlike now when you have nothing to eat.

Moreover, what kind of tea, they heard that only the rich people can afford to drink, is indeed quite expensive. They did not expect that they have these kinds of expensive things on this mountain?

Many of the mountain thieves had already begun to have glowing eyes.

Although these mountain thieves had never drank tea before, however, when they heard that tea could be sold for at least thirty wen a tael, each one of them had glowing eyes, and they listened surprisingly attentively.

Lu Yunluo then talked about some future plans.

For example, circle a place to raise some chickens and ducks, also circle another place to raise some pigs.

Not say to take it out to sell, at least having enough meat to eat and drink on their own.

If you plant the land, now it is already in the fall, and you can only start sowing in April or May next year.

During this period, you can get some tea leaves to sell, then to maintain a living should not be too big a problem.

When you are free, then open up the uncultivated land on the mountain; waiting until next year, until the time of sowing arrives, so she will be able to plant it directly. 

“This also has to start from when your grandfather, I went down the mountain with your grandfather Zhang to rob a girl ……”

Some years later, when the Green Dragon Village became known as a farm land, those mountain bandits back then, the invaders all without exception sighed regarding the matter of fate, touching his own grandson’s head with a look of reminiscence, said, “This also has to be from the time when your grandpa, me, along with your grandpa Zhang went down to the mountains and robbed a girl…”
