Chapter 112: To Set out on the Journey

Many people in Big Stone Village heard that Lu Lin was selling commercial house, but they all thought that was hearsay until Lu Lin had actually sold it.

"Lu Lin really has sold the commercial house."

"I heard that he and Chen Xiao Mi have bought an official post, and they are assuming the post soon, so they have to sell the commercial house."

"Lu Lin is really bold. That is such a big commercial house, and he just sold it like it didn't matter to him."

"He's already an official, I bet you he thinks nothing of a commercial house now."

"I thought Lu Cheng Yu was going to be the first official in our village, who would have expected Lu Lin to be the first one!"

"It's Lu Lin who is going to be the official? Isn't it Chen Xiao Mi?"

"Bios can't be government officials. They bought the title for Lu Lin."

"Oh I see~ I thought Chen Xiao Mi and Lu Lin weren't on good terms. I heard from the Lu family that Lu Lin is henpecked. If he wants to use money, he has to ask for permission from Chen Xiao Mi. If Chen Xiao Mi doesn't give him money, he won't be able to use a single cent. They say Chen Xiao Mi has always treated Lu Lin as an outsider."

"Just don't buy a single word what the Lu family said."

"This is really unpredictable. Lu Lin was frightened to death and he even tried to commit suicide when he heard that he was going to be married into Chen Xiao Mi's family. I didn't expect that he would become a government official today."

"..."

It was not easy to have an official in the village. Everyone was talking about this. Knowing that Chen Xiao Mi had spent three thousand tales of silver on buying the official title, a group of villagers sighed with emotion that Chen Xiao Mi was too low-key and who would have thought he had earned so much money.

"Once Chen Xiao Mi and Lu Lin leave, how are we going to do with our embroidery products? I wish they would still run Sino Commercial House!"

"Who knows, it's definitely not going to be as convenient as when they are here."

When the villagers thought about the consequences of Chen Xiao Mi leaving, they started to miss Chen Xiao Mi's kindness.

......

Grandma Chen was very indignant when she heard Lu Lin was becoming an official. She didn't understand why Lu Lin, an ill-starred boy, was going to pursue an official career.

Lu Cheng Yu told her that the title Lu Lin and Chen Xiao mi bought was not a good one. Sha County was close to the border and it was a war-stricken area. County magistrate in such a county was the most challenging job, the invaders might kill the county magistrate first to warn others.

Grandma Chen was mollified to some degree when she heard that. She thought that Lu Lin was destined to be a short-lived person. If Lu Lin took the position, he would be killed sooner or later.

Lu Lin and his party of fourteen people and four mule carriages headed towards Sha County with great strength and vigor.

After he decided to go to Sha County, Lu Lin dismissed some of his employees.

He kept Wan Xiao Fan and his family Xique and Lin Chun because they signed indentures with him and they all wanted to follow him.

Qin Yi and his family also followed. Qin Yi had already bought a property in town and led a comfortable life, but he resolutely sold his house and joined Lu Lin with his boys.
