Chapter 394 Planting medicinal herbs on the mountain?

This group of people resorted to robbery because they were broke; they genuinely didn't have the money to buy land.

However… Lin Xiaotang turned her head and looked at the mountains on both sides of the official road, and immediately had an idea.

"We don't need to buy land. We're growing medicinal herbs, not crops. They don't have to be grown in fields. We can grow them on this mountain too. Just choose a sunny side of the mountain and select the right type of medicinal herb!"

Planting medicinal herbs on the mountain?

Scarface had a sudden inspiration. He thought this was a good idea. No one was growing anything on the mountain they were staying on, nor was anyone taking care of it. If they occupied it and properly tended to it by planting medicinal herbs, wouldn't it become theirs in the future?

Okay, okay...that's a great idea!

But... where can we get medicinal herb seeds?

The matter of farmland can be resolved without money, but where can the matter of medicinal herb cultivation be resolved without money?

Are you suggesting we steal them from someone's medicinal herb field?

However, it's not impossible. The brothers have already robbed, so what's wrong with stealing?

He turned and glanced at his brothers, who then dared not protest any longer and fell silent.

Scarface pondered for a moment before his gaze hardened and he said, “Brothers, let’s try growing medicinal herbs. If it’s really as the little girl says, we can turn our lives around by planting them for two seasons and then hire workers to grow them. What does it matter if we brothers work hard for two seasons? We men have plenty of strength.”

Although everyone was naturally lazy and didn't want to do hard labor, they didn't dare to disobey the boss, so they had no choice but to nod reluctantly.

The bearded man, clutching two money bags, glanced at the copper coins and loose silver inside and asked, "Boss, we're growing medicinal herbs, and this little bit of silver isn't even enough for us brothers to have a meal. How are we going to buy the herb seeds?"

Scarface slapped the bearded man's face, looking disgusted, and said, "I always tell you to study more and learn to read, but you blockhead can't read a single word. Your brain is so stupid, there's no one else like you. We don't have money to buy medicinal herb seeds, can't we just steal them?"

The bearded man suddenly realized something and exclaimed with delight, "Brother, you're so clever! You actually came up with such a great idea! Stealing medicinal herbs is good. If we steal herbs, we'll have seeds. Not only will we not need to buy land or seeds, but if we steal more and sell them, we'll have grain and meat to eat again. That's wonderful!"

The other brothers were also very happy and excited. They thought this little brat was just trying to fool the boss because she was young, but they didn't expect her to actually open up new ideas for everyone.

Robbing people on the road is quite dangerous. If someone reports them to the authorities, they will be wanted. They went to steal medicinal herbs to resell them. Those people neither saw them nor had any evidence. Who can prove that these bandits stole them?

This is much safer than robbery!

One of the brothers excitedly said, "Boss, let's do something big again. Let's steal all those medicinal herb fields and try to sell them for more money. We'll hire workers to grow the herbs. The brothers really can't do this hard work."

Scarface glared at his brother.

"You idiot! Stealing all the other people's medicinal herb fields is like walking into a trap. They may not have seen us, but we're the only ones selling medicinal herbs. Anyone with a brain can guess where the herbs came from. I've never seen anyone as stupid as you!"

"Yes, yes, brother, it was my oversight. I'm stupid, please don't be angry."

Seeing his brother being scolded by his older brother for being stupid, the bearded man chuckled to himself, secretly pleased that someone was finally even stupider than him.

Scarface glanced at the bearded man and said coldly, "What are you laughing at?"

The bearded man immediately wiped the smile off his face, looking nervous like a child who had done something wrong, and said cautiously, "Big brother, I wasn't laughing at anything, I...I..."

Scarface kicked the bearded man in the leg. "Idiot, if you keep stuttering, get lost. It's driving me crazy."
