Lin just knelt suddenly. Jiang Fan didn''t have any psychological preparation.

    So after a moment of stagnation, Jiang Fan reacted and quickly bent down and stretched out his hand to help Lin, just like.

    Of course... No help.

    Jiang Fan had to pretend to be angry and said, "get up and talk. The fairy world doesn''t like this. If you have any difficulties, just mention it directly. If you can help me, you can''t help me. What''s it like to kneel directly!"

    Lin Wan hesitated when he heard the speech, but he still stood up, bowed his head and whispered, "the immortal forgives me. All women don''t know whether this request violates the regulations of the fairy world, but all women really have no other way."

    "Tell me more about it. What''s going on?"

    Jiang Fan asked curiously.

    In fact, Jiang fan is very satisfied to be begged face to face by such a beautiful girl as Lin Wanru.

    If in the original world, such a level of beauty would look at the sky when walking on the road.

    How can you pretend to be a little transparent like Jiang Fan?

    "Shangxian, we Lin family... Have no food. The existing grain reserves of each family can only eat for about half a month. Once there is no food in half a month, the Lin family will begin to starve."

    Lin Wan said with a bitter face.

    "No food?! aren''t you the landlords of the Lin family? Can the landlords still have no food?"

    Jiang Fan asked in surprise.

    "Shangxian, it hasn''t rained for more than three months near Heyang city. Although the whole Lin family has nearly 2000 mu of land, the annual situation is good and bad. On weekdays, it can only make a living for the family. The drought of more than three months has basically made this year''s land grain free. If there is no other way, the Lin family... Can''t survive 。”

    Lin Wanru''s tone is a little sad, which sounds very distressing.

    Jiang fan is very compassionate, but the problem is... He doesn''t know all the grains. He doesn''t understand farming at all!

    "Shangxian, my idea is that since you can breathe the wind, you should also call the rain. Therefore, can you use your great magic power to let us have a rain near Lin''s house and save the food in the field?"

    Lin Wan seemed to finish. His eyes were full of hope and looked at Jiang Fan.

    Jiang Fan looks confused.

    summon wind and call for rain? I?

    This misunderstanding is a little big... Even if a hand-held electric fan exhales the wind, can pee call the rain?

    Facing Lin''s eyes, Jiang Fan said with a smile: "Well... Miss Lin, it''s not that I don''t want to help you. I really can''t do it. Well... There''s a strong barrier between the fairy world and the mortal world. As long as I come to the mortal world, I will lose all my magic powers. Even if you say the art of resisting the wind, I have to rely on magic weapons to do it. Have you tried? The wind is still very weak, almost nothing. So... I''m sorry."

    He talked nonsense, but because he used words that Lin Wanru could understand and understand, Lin Wanru did not doubt, but his pretty face was filled with an incomparably lost expression for a moment.

    Jiang Fan couldn''t bear it. After thinking about it, he suddenly said, "er... Miss Lin, let me ask you one more question. Do you have to be responsible for the food of these 600 people in your Lin family?"

    Lin Wan was a little stunned and immediately shook his head and said, "that''s not necessary. Although it''s nominally a family, in fact, the people in the family have already separated, and all the land has been divided by each family. On weekdays, each family is said to be a family, but it''s actually more like a village."

    "Well... Second question, Miss Lin, is it convenient to buy food with copper money? What is the price of food? Or how far are you from the nearest town? Is there enough food for sale in the town?"

    Jiang Fan continued.

    Lin Wanru didn''t know what Jiang Fan wanted to do, but he honestly replied, "the nearest Heyang city is 20 miles away. It usually takes about an hour to walk. As for the price of grain, it costs 300 Wen per stone. The price of grain must have risen in recent months, and it may reach 400 Wen. But... Shangxian, we don''t have money."

    Lin Wan looked puzzled and then said, "the whole family is basically self-sufficient by farming. The annual harvest is barely enough to eat. There is no way to make money. Only if you can hunt wild animals in the nearby mountains occasionally, you can take them to Heyang city to exchange some money. But the things in the mountains can''t be sold at any price, and they are basically used to buy salt."

    "OK, so the last question, Miss Lin, if there is brass, can your Lin family forge copper money?"

    Jiang fan then asked.

    Brass?!

    Lin Wanru finally reacted. He stared at Jiang Fan with big bright eyes for a long time. Then he slowly nodded and said, "yes, it''s OK. It''s not difficult to forge copper money. The Lin family has also forged it before. The quality can be almost the same as the current official money. It can be used at a fair price without price increase. But... We don''t have copper."

    You didn''t, I did!

    Jiang Fan smiled and suddenly had an idea: "don''t worry, Miss Lin, although I can''t show my magic power in the world. It must be impossible to let God rain. But the problem of food should be solved in other ways."

    "What the immortal said is true?!"

    Lin seemed suddenly surprised.

    "Of course, lying to you doesn''t have a sense of achievement, but I need time. Since your food is enough for about half a month, it''s time."

    Jiang Fan said confidently.

    With such a positive answer, Lin Wanru finally breathed a sigh, and the worried color on his pretty face, which was originally depressed in the center of his eyebrows, was finally relieved.

    Just at this time, the door of the courtyard was suddenly knocked.

    Lin Wan was stunned, leaned over and pleaded guilty with Jiang Fan, then turned around and opened the gate of the quadrangle.

    Jiang Fan was acutely aware that Lin Wanru''s face became colder as the gate of the courtyard was opened and saw who the knocker was.

    "What''s the matter? It''s like you won''t let us in? It''s impolite to block the second uncle out of the door?"

    A slightly thick voice sounded.

    Lin seemed to have no reply, but stood aside with the a cold face.

    A middle-aged man who looked almost 40 or 50 years old led a young man in his early twenties in.

    Although they are both dressed up by farmers, they are full of momentum and give people a feeling of something extraordinary.

    Just entering the yard, they noticed Jiang Fan in the yard at a glance.

    For Jiang Fanna''s dress in flowered underpants, short sleeves and flip flops, they both looked at a loss.

    "Like, this is..."

    The middle-aged man asked strangely.

    "Second uncle, if you have anything, just say it directly."

    Lin seemed to have no intention to answer, with a cold face.

    The middle-aged man looked at Jiang Fan again, held back his doubts, ignored Jiang Fan, an outsider, and said with a fake smile: "just like, it''s still the same thing before. How are you thinking about marrying my Xiaowei? Don''t worry, my second uncle''s conditions are very sincere. As long as you marry my Xiaowei, the second uncle will move you home immediately for the dowry of 100 stone grain!"
