Chapter 406: Chapter 406 Wheat Harvest(4)_1
“I’ll go and report back immediately,” Hong Ying replied, noticing her mistress’s frail condition. She asked cautiously, “Miss, are you feeling unwell?”

“I’m fine,” Lin Ziyin shook her head, “I’m just thinking about something. Follow me over to the machinery and we’ll talk about it there.”

Hong Ying nodded, going outside to beckon Lun Luo and Qiaoqiao. Together, they accompanied Lin Ziyin to the Machine Yard.

The Lin family owned harvesting machines. Even though the two machines were not as powerful as the modern ones, they were conspicuous in the ancient times, being small steam-powered harvesters.

“Miss, the machines are ready. We can start them now if you wish,” Long Feishou, brimming with excitement, reported. He had a certain reputation in the Capital City. While he possessed some skills, they were rendered insignificant in front of truly talented individuals. What set him apart, however, was his prowess in stealing, unmatched by any.

The higher you climb, the harder you fall. Egged on by his peers, he audaciously attempted to steal the Nine Dragons Cup from Prince’s Residence. This reckless act led to his capture and consequently, his banishment to the Northern Land.

Initially, he thought his fate was sealed in the harsh Northern Land. But soon after his arrival, he was bought by Lin Ziyin. In the beginning, Long Feishou was no match for Qian Xuan’s knowledge or Jue Ming and Shaohui’s martial prowess. He struggled with farming as well and lived in constant fear of being sold to Border City should Lin Ziyin lose her temper.
