Chapter 147 - 147 143 Land Buying Controversy
?Chapter 147: Chapter 143 Land Buying Controversy Chapter 147: Chapter 143 Land Buying Controversy After the carriage left the city, Ruo Shui also made a point to stop and have a look at the notice.
There was not only the notice but also the layout of the moat, with the red lines depicting the canal that the Governor’s Office planned to dig.
This moat would run from east to west, drawing water from the Xishui River to flow from the east to the west—providing a water source for the wasteland near the East City Gate and facilitating irrigation for the dry lands, wasteland, and hills to the west. It could be said that once this moat was excavated, it would transform tens of thousands of acres of wasteland into fertile fields within a few years!
Truly a deed that benefited the people.
“Xuanbao, you really made the right purchase with this land. I was worried there was no water source here, and nothing much could be grown, but to think the Imperial Court would suddenly build a moat. With the moat, it will be so convenient to draw water for irrigation,” Ruo Shui said happily.
Ruo Xuan had always believed she wouldn’t make the wrong choice, and she excitedly said, “When we get home, let’s ask the villagers to start clearing the land. Once the New Year is over, spring will arrive, and it will be perfect for planting flowers.”
Hearing this, Ruo Shui also understood why Xuanbao wanted to plant flowers—probably because she was moved by the flowers from previous years.
As for whether she could grow them, Xuanbao had managed to cultivate fruit saplings, so how could she not know how to plant flowers?
He said without hesitation, “Alright, I’ll have the villagers come over after I get back, to start clearing the land ahead of time.”
Granny Lei also went to look at the layout. She said, “With the moat, many nearby wastelands will become prime lands with convenient water access. Old Fourth, let’s hurry home and tell your older brothers about it. See if they are interested in buying some wasteland.”
The wasteland purchased by Xuanbao would belong to her alone, and no one else should even think about it.
