in the south, refugees become a plague.The county government came up with a plan. For all the refugees who arrived in Jianghe County, male refugees were sent to join the army, and female refugees were...Just as Li Yuyao was about to lose hope, that refreshing voice continued.

"Children only make choices."

"I want it all!"

Silence.

Everyone was stunned into silence.

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

What did you say

"I said, I'm going to marry ten!"

Yang Lin spoke word by word.

All the women were stunned, their faces filled with astonishment.

Li Yuyao was furious. This seemingly kind young man turned out to be a lecher

Zhao Fu貴 hurriedly pulled Yang Lin aside.

"Yang Lin, this isn't a joke!"

"I'm not joking, Third Master. I'm serious."

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

"To marry one wife and take nine concubines is nothing to be surprised about."

Actually, he had already decided to do so before coming.

He wasn't acting impulsively, nor was he solely driven by a desire to help them escape their misery. Yang Lin had his own plans.

"Is that all"

Zhao Fuguang's eyes widened.

"Not to mention that this master demands one hundred wen, ten of them would be one thousand wen, a whole tael of silver!"

"Nor mention the spring tax, autumn tax, population tax, land tax... ten people, thousands of wen a year!"

"Just food Your three mu of thin land, isn't enough to feed so many people"

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

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

"What Population... red Benefit What's that"

Zhao Fu Gui looked bewildered.

Yet Yang Lin just gave a mysterious smile.

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

Zhang Wu let out a contemptuous sneer. “Kid, you want it all Fine! One thousand wen!”

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

Yang Lin shook his head. "Not yet."

"Dare you! Speak so boldly without a penny to your name"

Yang Lin extended three fingers.

"Three days, give me three days, I promise to give you the money. I can swear by it."

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

Of course I won't let you get away with it. Three days, 300 wen in interest.

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

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

The constable was moved.

One thousand three hundred articles, that's not a small number.

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

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

The constable leered at Li Yuyao.

Doesn't he believe Yang Lin can come up with it

Having made a written agreement, when the time comes, I will receive both money and people, achieving a win-win situation.

Zhao Fugui had no time to stop him, and Yang Lin had already written the IOU.

"Oh, Yang Lin! You're so clueless!"

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

That was one thousand three hundred wen. Even if Yang Lin could borrow it, his family wouldn't have been able to afford it.

Let's get the marriage certificate.

"Choose one to be your wife, and the rest as concubines."

The displaced people went to the countryside with the aim of settling down and becoming registered residents, thus obtaining legal status.

The marriage certificate is a necessary procedure. Even though Zhang Wu is reluctant, he has to go through with it.

Just as Yang Lin was looking at Li Yuyao.

"I! The rightful wife!"

Li Yuxiang took the initiative to speak, she would never be subservient!

The rest of the people looked surprised.

But some people were unconvinced, but just as they were about to speak, they saw Li Yunyao's sweeping gaze and subconsciously shut their mouths.

That gaze, extremely domineering! Even Yang Lin gasped in surprise.

She, the legal wife.

Yang Lin pointed to Li Yuyao without hesitation. He blinked at the girl, whose gaze was arrogant and disdainful.

Li Yuxiang was furious.

She was once the Empress, a woman of noble birth. Who would dare treat her with such disrespect

However, at this moment Li Yuyao also understood that the other party's decisiveness probably meant they had already made up their mind. They were just keeping it to themselves, proving to be a cunning and thoughtful person.

But it made her worry constantly.

Bad guy!

Although she was chosen now, the thought of becoming the woman of this rustic boy, a lustful lecher... made Li Yuyao's heart flutter in confusion and anxiety.

Ten marriage certificates, all filled out, Yang Lin carefully collected them.

At this moment, he was extremely excited.

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

And now, all you need is courage, and you can marry ten at once.

This damn feudal society!

"Li Yao What a good name."

Looking at the pseudonym Li Yuyu wrote on the marriage certificate, Yang Lin slightly bowed: "My name is Yang Lin, I've met you, madam. I am a scholar. From now on, I will be with you... oh, and all the other concubines, together we will cherish each other and grow old together."

Yang Lin bowed respectfully.

He could be sure 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.

One's appearance can be disguised, but one's temperament is something that cannot be faked.

As the crowd was about to leave, a lone figure walked towards them from afar.

This man wore a silk long robe, with a jade pendant hanging from his waist. Though the weather wasn't hot, he still fanned himself with a fan, pretending to be cultured.

So flamboyant, in the whole village of Koushan, only Liu Liang, son of the landowner Liu Youcai.

Let me take a look at this batch. Are there any pretty ones

"Hey, Yang Lin Are you here to find a wife too"

"Hahaha, I heard you can't even afford to take care of yourself, and you're still looking for a wife Are you worthy"

He gave Yang Lin a dismissive glance and then turned his gaze to the village head, Zhao Fu貴.

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

"Just him What use is he!"

"Having trouble finding a wife, huh This young master has already taken three concubines, but my Liu family can afford more! Just ask me, and this young master will take on two more wives without hesitation!"

Liu Liang raised his chin proudly, boasting of his "brilliant" achievements.

The whole mountain village, there was only him and his father, each taking three concubines.

He considers himself superior to others and flaunts it everywhere.

Zhao Fuguai sneered, "Young Master Liu, you're late today."

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

Yang Lin has already signed the marriage documents with them. They are now all Yang Lin's wives.

"Well, it's not a lot, just one wife and nine concubines."

Zhao Fu貴 laughed and said.

He knows what kind of person Liu Liang is.

Liu Liang took the woman away and, after bringing her back, beat and berated her, treating her like an object.

In less than half a month, the young woman could no longer bear the humiliation and hanged herself.

The Zhao family and the Liu family have a rather poor relationship. Zhao Fu貴 especially 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 contract is signed. Whether you believe it or not, from today onwards, Yang Lin is the man with the most wives and concubines in our village, our reliance and support.

Seeing the Liu family fail, Zhao Fuguai felt a hint of satisfaction in his heart.

Liu Liang was dumbfounded.

When he looked again at the women around Yang Lin, his face turned ashen.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he fixed his gaze on Li Yiyiao, a greedy gleam flashing in his eyes. He swallowed hard.

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

"Yang Lin, this little beauty I have my eyes on!"

How much

"What are you looking at me with that kind of gaze"

"Goodness gracious, how frightening."

"Heh heh, isn't that all you want is money!"

Saying that, he pulled out a silver coin and tossed it at Yang Lin's feet. else, just tell us! But if you so much as harm a single hair on our husband's head, we will never let you get away with it!"The women, their faces cold and hard, had drawn their bows and aimed them a...
