An hour later, the people in the village who worked in the Murong family had basically already got the seeds, because they had to go to work in the fields, and they didn't stay for a long time, so they took the seeds and left.

"Wait, don't clean up, wait for us."

"Two aunts, what are you doing here?"
The two of you look at me and I look at you. After making eye contact for a long time, Gao, as an older sister, had to speak first: "We are here to buy high-yielding seeds."
Murong Lingran decisively refused: "Not for sale."
Mr. Gao knew that it was not so easy to buy seeds today, but she came prepared today and would not leave easily.
Glancing at Murong Zhe, although he is now an official, she has no reverence in her eyes, and suddenly snorted: "Murong Lingran, your father is an official now, what is the official's duty? The common people do things for welfare. We common people have requests from him now, and he can’t just ignore the life and death of the common people in Lihua Village because of personal grudges, and watch us live in dire straits, right?”
"Our family has not been exempted from the autumn tax this year, and our family is already much sadder than others. If you don't give us high-yield grain, we will definitely only be able to grow ordinary grain next year. If we are hungry and sick due to lack of food, your father will If the court finds out, do you think he will be punished?"
Murong Lingran narrowed his eyes: "Are you threatening me?"
Xiao Gao continued: "My sister is not threatening you, but analyzing the pros and cons with you. Although I haven't read the book, I also know that food is important to the people and the court. One less household grows high-yield food. By then, the imperial court will definitely lose a portion of the autumn tax on high-yield grains, and if Xuanqing country suffers losses, say, if your majesty finds out, will your father's position be taken back?"
Murong Lingran and several brothers looked at each other, how could these two think of threatening them in such a way?

Seeing that Murong Lingran was about to speak, Mrs. Gao preemptively said: "Murong Lingran, you don't have to threaten me with my son's confession. I'm not afraid. Compared with food, I can also distinguish the importance. Before we came, our family had It has been discussed, if sacrificing a person can bring benefits to the family, we are willing to let him die, and my son has no complaints."
Murong Lingran calmed down and said, "It seems that you have come after a lot of homework. No wonder you came so late. It must have taken a lot of time to persuade Feng Jifang."
Xiao Gao was stunned for a moment, his face full of discomfort and said: "Don't talk so much nonsense, if you want to keep your father's reputation and official position, quickly give me the food."
Mr. Gao also said: "Yes, don't just give us one acre of seeds, we each need 20 acres. In addition to our family, our parents and many relatives who are not in Lihua Village also need to plant."
Murong said in surprise: "It's so much, I need 20 cents a pound, a total of 40 acres of land, this requires a lot of money, are you willing?"
