Latimer looked at Wen Lin's leaving back for a while, and then stared at Hader, who was a little nervous. He looked at the ground and pondered for a while before saying,
"You called the others over,"
There was no clear answer, but it was enough to make Hader excited. He hurried away and said loudly, "I'll go find them now, please wait a moment,"
The other three were obviously not as daring as Hader, and kept their heads down when they came over, looking very timid.
Latimer surveyed them from head to toe, then whispered, "Let's go then,"
The surprise came too suddenly, and the people who were originally uneasy raised their heads instantly and stumblingly said thank you.
Latimer nodded calmly and led them to the front, already faintly showing a bit of Wen Lin's demeanor and attitude.
Seeing a few people behind Latimer who came out, Wen Lin smiled unsurprisingly.
Latimer and Wen Lin rode together, and the others were put into the carriage and rushed to Yinhe Village together.
The clouds in the sky were getting darker, and seeing that the sky seemed to be about to rain, Wen Lin increased her speed, and before the sky darkened, the group arrived at the entrance of Yinhe Village.
Wen Lin hadn't been to Yinhe Village for a while. The regular stone houses and roads were scattered in a rudimentary shape. At first glance, she felt a bit like a resort.
The village is still busy, and the aroma of food can still be vaguely smelled.
This time Brown didn't appear for the first time, and Wen Lin walked into the village with a few children by herself.
The busy villagers quickly recognized Wen Lin and Latimer, hurriedly wiped their hands on their bodies, surrounded them, and said excitedly,
"Lord Lord, Your Excellency Brown is supervising the construction of the barn, and someone has already called him,"
Wen Lin nodded with a smile and asked about the overall construction process. From the outside, the tarpaulin shed temporarily used to shelter from the wind and rain was demolished. It is estimated that the residential area should have been built.
A mason immediately greeted the crowd, "Lord Lord, the main houses have been built. On your plan, only some public facilities and specific village landscaping are left unfinished."
The speed was unexpectedly fast, Wen Lin couldn't hide a satisfied smile, and asked if they had other needs.
Unexpectedly, everyone shook their heads one after another, and several pairs of eyes looked at Wen Lin with strong gratitude.
"Lord Lord, we are very satisfied. Not only do we have a spacious stone house, delicious food, a free-use mill, an oven... and no complicated taxes to pay, life here is just like heaven."
"We shouldn't greedily ask you for something,"
Everyone thought, even the lords of medical halls, schools, and defense facilities, which everyone dared not think about, have thought of it, what else can they be dissatisfied with.
The four of Hader who followed behind Wen Lin widened their eyes, looked at the clean and beautiful houses in the village in amazement and ignorance, and listened to the villagers' compliments to His Excellency the Bishop.
Are the nobles in the mouths of the villagers real?
Latimer silently observed Wen Lin's attitude and behavior when talking with the villagers. It was neither too warm nor cold. The villagers would not be too close to her, and always kept a distance of about one meter. Passionate yet respectful.
Brown came quickly. As soon as he came, the villagers automatically dispersed to both sides to disperse the people. Brown stepped forward, looking radiant.
"Your Excellency Wen Lin, do you have any other orders today?"
Wen Lin pointed to a few children behind her, and mentioned the establishment of a school. Before the construction of Yinhe Village officially started, Wen Lin explained the function of each partition to Brown in detail.
As the time involved in the construction gets longer and longer, Brown is more and more looking forward to the official completion of the Yinhe Village.
Although the financial and human resources invested in the early stage are very huge, the enthusiasm and initiative of seeing the villagers working in the village during this period is something Brown has never felt.
No matter what he was going to do, as long as Brown ordered it, someone would immediately respond, and he would do it well from start to finish.
The territorial people have always been reluctant to live by the work for the lord. Brown suddenly understood the intention of Lord Wen Lin for those terms that seemed to be very disadvantageous.
A true loyal subject is worth a few false advocates.
What Lord Wen Lin wants is their true loyalty.
Hearing Wen Lin mention the school, Brown hurriedly talked about the situation of the school. As long as some tables, chairs, beds, etc. were added, the children could live in and study.
At present, everything in Yinhe Village is developing smoothly on the right track. Wen Lin looked at Brown with emotion. It is because of Brown's full assistance that the current progress can be achieved.
"Lord Brown, I don't know how to thank you,"
"Your Excellency Wen Lin, everything is what I should do," Brown also sighed. Everything he did now gave him an indescribable sense of achievement and satisfaction.
There would definitely not be a housekeeper as knowledgeable as him in the city, and Brown couldn't help but feel proud.
Of course, all these changes are due to Your Excellency Wen Lin.
After handing over the children to Brown, Wen Lin found a few experienced farmers to go with her to the uncultivated territory near the village.
There are many types of soil, and different soil uses are also different. Some soils are suitable for planting grains, some are suitable for planting fruit trees, and some are suitable for grazing.
Only by adapting measures to local conditions can agriculture be developed well.
Before the few of them left the village, it started to rain heavily. She grabbed a straw hat and Wen Lin took the lead in galloping towards the farmland by the river bank.
During this time, there are more rainy days and less sunny days, and the amount of water in the river is also large.
After dismounting, Wen Lin walked towards the river bank first, there was still a long distance from the river bank, and the water under the grass had already overflowed Wen Lin's ankles.
While several peasants watched suspiciously, Wen Lin took a small hoe and dug a few times, put the excavated soil into the prepared container, and planted a small flag on the spot for marking.
