?Chapter 72: Chapter 70 How did the village chief’s grandfather know I had another dream? Chapter 72: Chapter 70 How did the village chief’s grandfather know I had another dream? The village elder heard that the Ruo Family wanted to buy his plot and an additional two acres of wasteland to expand their housing and happily went with them to measure the land.
Ruo Xuan looked at a small pond on the wasteland: it wasn’t very big, but it could be dug out a bit more. Once the house was built, they could raise lotus root and fish in the pond.
Then they would have lotus root and fish to eat!
The braised fish they ate yesterday at Tianxiang Tower was delicious, although her favorite foods were still rabbit and mutton.
“Granny, let’s buy a bigger piece, including that pond,” Ruo Xuan expressed her thoughts.
Granny Lei thought that an acre of wasteland wasn’t very expensive. Since they were adding on to the house, it was naturally done according to her granddaughter’s liking: “Alright, village elder, please also include that pond in the measurements, buy a bigger piece.”
The village elder simply measured all the wasteland near the Ruo Family’s home, a little over six acres.
The village elder said, “Buying wasteland is cost-effective. When the previous County Magistrate was in office, there was a decree offering half an acre for free with every acre purchased, but no one wanted to buy it, you know. Taxes were too heavy back then, and wasteland needed several years before yielding a harvest, which wasn’t exactly profitable. Now, I don’t know if the offer still stands, but if it does, for this little over six acres, you’d only need to pay for four acres of silver. It’s just that converting wasteland into residential land requires paying some land tax.”
Granny Lei was aware, “The silver that needs to be paid must be paid. If the new County Magistrate hasn’t issued new documents, then it should be fine. I’m also planning to buy some more wasteland and barren hills. Village elder, measure your plot again, and then we’ll go look at the barren hills.”
