Chapter 46 Unrivaled Talent Emerges (2)_1
"I trust you!"
Mo Yan was startled for a moment, but then a brilliant smile bloomed on her face, her eyes shining as if they were filled with the sunlight reflecting off a lake.
Feeling trusted was simply too wonderful!
Lin Yong’s prestige within the Lin Clan was beyond doubt. Seeing him sign his name so readily, nobody else had any objections, and soon, people rushed forward to sign the contract.
Seeing that many villagers from outside the Lin Clan also came running to sign the contract, Mo Yan quickly asked them to queue up and reminded them to come one by one.
To prevent any unnecessary disputes from arising in the future, Mo Qingze and Lizhong read the contract carefully to each villager who wanted to sign it. After confirming with them repeatedly, they then let them press their fingerprints.
"Dayou, with so many people here, and us all the way at the back, we might not get our turn, right?"
Zhang Erniu, who was at the end of the line and also a refugee, was concerned as he looked at the long queue in front of him. His family of seven or eight only had cotton-padded clothes to wear, and he was counting on getting some cotton to make winter clothes.
"How could that be? All the cotton and grain are piled up there!"
Zhang Dayou and Zhang Erniu were close friends from childhood, with a solid relationship. Pointing at the piles inside the house, his eyes were filled with longing.
Zhang Erniu felt a bit relieved and leaned in to whisper, "I’ve figured it out. Working yourself to death in the city, you’d earn at most twenty wen a day, and that’s if you can even find work. But working for the Mo Family for a day, you get one pound of cotton and two pounds of grain. If you had to buy it, it would cost at least forty wen."
