Mo Xianling didn't know that Lin Ruan knew the old fisherman, and when he saw the old fisherman's dirty appearance, he was afraid that he would disturb Lin Ruan's driving, so he scolded in the local dialect: "Be bold and make a fool of the people, don't get half a step close to the princess who protects the country, otherwise the official will arrest you and put you in prison!" ”

The old fisherman was so shocked by these words that he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, and he was petrified in place.

Lin Ruan frowned unhappily, "Mo County Order, this old gentleman is an old acquaintance with this palace. ”

Mo Xianling was shocked, and his legs were so frightened that his legs were about to weaken, "The princess forgives her sins, Xia Guan doesn't know that the princess and the old gentleman know each other, and the lower official is just afraid that the idle people will disturb the princess's tranquility, and the lower official will not compensate the old gentleman." ”

As he spoke, Mo Xianling turned his head and bowed to the old fisherman, and apologized to him in dialect.

The old fisherman still didn't come back to his senses from the previous shock.

After Lin Ruan and his party went out to sea on the official boat and went out to sea, the old fisherman finally came back to his senses, patted his thigh and shouted, "It's amazing, the princess of the protector has come to the village to give blessings!" ”

Where did Lin Ruan know the old fisherman's reaction, and led people to the island overnight.

After waiting on the island until dawn, she pointed to the rubber trees on the island and said, "I'm talking about these trees, which are called rubber trees, and when the bark is cut, white sap flows." These juices are collected and processed to obtain rubber. Rubber is very versatile, so you have to be sure to take care of these trees, and then find a way to plant them on a large scale on land. After planting, the palace will ask for credit for you from your father when the time comes. ”

Mo County Commander immediately knelt on the ground with a thud, "This official should do his best to do what the princess instructs, and he will definitely plant this rubber tree all over the county!" ”

Lin Ruan nodded in satisfaction, and then turned around to instruct those who brought in to pick glue like this.

These people are local farmers, and as soon as Lim Nguyen says, they know how to do it.

Lin Ruan watched as they cut the bark, fixed the crockpot, and successfully took the glue.

After waiting on the island for a day, Lin Ruan carried the first batch of glue collected in several large barrels and let people carry it onto the boat.

When they returned to the harbor by boat, they saw a large number of people on the shore, both old and young, the older ones were in their twilight years, and the younger ones were still spitting and foaming in the arms of adults.

These people didn't look very good, but when they saw the official ship coming back, they all knelt down and kowtowed to the official ship as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

"Welcome to the princess of the protectorate, the princess Chitose Chitose."

Lin Ruan heard the voice, came out of the cabin, saw the people kneeling on the shore, and hurriedly let the boat dock.

Can't wait for the official to set up the ladder, Lin Ruan jumped down from the boat and helped the old fisherman and several other old men who were kneeling in front of him to help him up, "Everyone hurry up and please, no courtesy." ”

The old fisherman's eyes were red with excitement, "Princess, it turns out that you are the princess who protects the country!" ”

Lin Ruan smiled embarrassedly, she only understood the word princess in this sentence.

Embarrassed.

Mo Xianling hurriedly stepped forward to translate for her, Lin Ruan understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "Old man, so many of you are here, are you here to wait for me?" ”

The old fisherman couldn't understand Lin Ruan's words, so Mo Xian Ling helped translate again, and then after the old fisherman understood, he spoke again, and then turned to Lin Ruan and said, "Princess, this old gentleman said that the whole village was already waiting here last night, just to see the princess." ”

Mo Xianling was very satisfied, these people were quite good at coming to things, and acting like this made the princess feel so happy. This also shows that he can govern and make the people grateful to the court, which is why he takes the princess of the country so seriously.

Lin Ruan was really moved in her heart, but she was more reluctant to go, she didn't expect that her arrival would make the people of this village wait for her here for a night and a day.

For more than 20 hours, young people are just young, so many old and weak women and children, what if they get sick?

Lin Ruan hurriedly ordered Mo County: "Hurry up and let them go back, they must be tired after staying here for more than ten hours." ”

Mo Xian Ling said to the fishermen: "The princess is kind-hearted, and she has mercy on you for more than ten hours here, and I am afraid that you will be tired and sick, so let you go back and rest quickly." ”

The fishermen were moved in their hearts and spoke another dialect to Lin Ruan.

Knowing that Lin Ruan didn't understand, the fishermen hurriedly expressed their love for the princess who protected the country with their actions.

The old fisherman took the lead in presenting the gift he brought, which was a large bag of dried fish, and the old fisherman said excitedly: "Princess, we don't have anything to do here, these are the fish that the grass people have caught themselves, and the most beautiful ones are selected and given to the princess to taste." ”

Others also sent their own things to the table.

Lin Ruan looked at the sincere and enthusiastic appearance of these people, and was extremely moved in his heart, and repeatedly excused himself, "It's not easy for everyone to fish, how can I accept such a valuable gift." Everyone, take everything back and sell it for themselves. ”

But no one would take back what they brought, and insisted on giving it to Lin Ruan.

Mo Xianling said on the side: "Princess, this is the people's heart, you can accept it, so that the people will be happy." ”

Lin Ruan would never take the people's things for nothing, not to mention that she knew that these things seemed to be crude, but they were also fished up from the sea by these fishermen little by little. This is what these fishermen rely on for their livelihood, how embarrassed she is to take it for nothing.

So Lin Ruan thought for a while, took out a silver ticket from his bosom and handed it to the county order, "Go and exchange this silver ticket for cash, and the palace will buy all these seafood." ”

Mo Xianling was stunned, "Princess, this ...... It doesn't have to be. It is all a piece of the people's heart. ”

Lin Ruan Zhengse said: "The people's wishes have been received by this palace, but how can this palace accept their seafood that was originally intended to be used for oil, salt and grain. I am the princess of the Great Zhou, and these people are also the people of my Great Zhou Dynasty, and the court can't let them live a better life at present. Tell them that I will not only take all the seafood from their hands, but also take all the seafood from their homes and bring it back to Kyoto to find a market for their seafood. ”

Mo Xian Ling only felt that he was embarrassed by these words, and hurriedly asked him to exchange for cash. Then he turned around and told these fishermen that Lin Ruan wanted to buy these seafood at an equal price.

This Mo County Order is also a good person, not only said that Lin Ruan wanted to buy seafood, but also learned what Lin Ruan had just said to the fishermen.

After hearing this, the fishermen knelt on the ground again, and shouted Chitose to Lin Ruan with red eyes.

Taking advantage of this gap, Lin Ruan invited several elderly people in the village over and chatted with them about the livelihood issues here.

Others hurried home, packed up all the fish in the house, and carried them to the beach.
