Chapter 404: Only Three Chances

Translator: Lonelytree 

“If you want to have a thousand taels of silver at once, you can go to Mount Da Ao to kill a big tiger and hike the cliffs to pick medicinal herbs. Let’s see if you’re so lucky. This girl was still a weak person who didn’t know how to fight back a few months ago. But now she’s rich.”

“So what if that girl has a lot of money? She’s just an unfilial descendant. She ignores her parents no matter how hard life is for them. Such an unfilial person will definitely be struck by lightning in the future.” This person was jealous of Lin Yuelan’s money.

“To think that you would say something like that. Have you forgotten that they have cut off all ties with her? So why should Yuelan serve them? Furthermore, they tried to kill her. Who would be gracious to respect those who want to kill them?”

“You’re only speaking up for her because she’s rich.” the man sneered. “don’t forget that she’s a jinx. Perhaps you’ll die tomorrow for helping her.”

“You…”

“Enough!” Lin Yiwei shouted at those who were trying to spread rumors again, “You understood what I meant, right? Lan ‘Er wants to buy all the land around her hut. So if you have land there, she’ll belong it from you at a fair price.”

“I’m not selling!” Someone said without thinking, “she’s a jinx. If I sell the land to her, I’m afraid I’ll be jinxed to death.”

“I’m not selling it either. I’d rather leave the old houses and land empty than sell it to her.”

“I’m not selling it either…”

“Village chief, how much is the jinx buying the land for?”

“16 taels per mu!”

“Sixteen taels? It’s so high!”

Those high-grade fields were only worth 15 taels at most. The land around Lin Yuelan’s hut was basically a wasteland. But she offered such a high price for them.

Lin Yiwei explained, “Lan ‘Er has stated it clearly. For those who want to sell the land to her voluntarily, she will buy them for 16 taels per Mu. However, if you miss this opportunity, she’ll buy your land at a lower price in the future. She’ll only buy it for 10 taels per Mu.”

When they heard Lin Yuelan say that Lin Yuelan was willing to buy the land at a high price of sixteen taels, many people were moved.

Many villagers had unused land near the mountain. They tried planting vegetables there, but the soil was not that good. Therefore, many had let the land run wild. This was a perfect chance for them to earn some money. However, they were also worried about Lin Yuelan’s reputation as the jinx. What if something happened to their families after selling her the land?

“Village Chief, why was it only ten taels the second time?” Someone asked in confusion. Shouldn’t the price get higher?

Lin Yiwei explained, “You all know that one Mu of high-grade fields costs around fifteen taels, medium-grade fields, ten taels, and low-grade fields, five taels. The land around Lan ‘Er’s hut can’t even pa.s.s as low-grade fields. However, she took into account that the land was used to house the villagers’ ancestral homes. Therefore, she’s willing to buy the land at the price of middle-grade fields.

“However, Lan ‘Er said that she would only give you three chances. If you sell her the land now, she’ll buy it at 16 taels per Mu. If you wait for the second time, it’ll be at 10 taels per Mu. The last time will be 5 taels per Mu. If you don’t want to sell your land, she won’t force you. However, if you want to go through there in the future, you have to take a detour or pay the road fee because she will own the land then.”

As soon as Lin Yiwei said this, there was a loud bang, and someone immediately said angrily, “Village chief, this is too much. You can’t be so biased. The roads there belong to the public. Why should we pay her if we want to use it in the future?”

Lin Yiwei listened to his words and said angrily, “Those lands are left unused now. But haven’t I said that Lan ‘Er wants to buy those lands? Once she makes the purchase, the land will be hers. Do you think you can step into other’s private property as you wish?”
