As you probably realize, link speed declines with distance. A router with factory-installed "rubber ducky" antennas can probably reach 100 meters in open space, but speed will drop drastically at that distance. Furthermore, if your terrain is not open space -- those trees and rocks all absorb signal, reducing each router's effective reach.
Work on one problem at a time by taking a building router to the main office. Configure the main router as a Wi-Fi AP and the other router as a Wi-Fi client. Get those devices talking to each other, and then relocate the building router where you actually need it. You didn't mention which router model you were using, but many Linksys routers do support bridging in this fashion. Consult your product manual for configuration details.
