Chapter 266 Buying land to open up wasteland and fooling little flowers (3)

"Since the military camp at the border has also been mixed with bad food, if we start from the military camp, it will surely attract the attention of the Holy Emperor soon. However, it is best for the Prince's Palace not to interfere in this matter, but those princes who have conflicts with Prince Heng The most suitable."

King Heng is the third son of Jinshang. He has a mother who is a noble concubine of high status. He is also highly regarded by Jinshang. He covets the position of prince no less than the fallen King Jing. Precisely because of his various advantages, among other princes and princes who coveted the position of prince, he was a greater threat than the real prince Chu Heng.

If the others could work together to pull King Heng down due to the bad food incident this time, it would save the prince a lot of trouble.

Xiao Ruiyuan and Chu Heng looked at each other and saw agreement in each other's eyes.

When Xiao Ruiyuan returned to his home, he took up a pen and wrote down the relevant information about the moldy grains on paper. When he finally signed the note, he wrote another brief sentence, asking Mo Yan not to worry. After writing it, he had it sent to Mo Yan.

Mo Yan has always been thinking about the moldy food issue and was very happy to receive Xiao Ruiyuan's letter.

After reading the letter, she realized that the matter was more complicated than she imagined, and Mo Yan was helpless. Fortunately, although things are progressing a bit slowly, it is better than doing nothing. Besides, this matter really cannot be rushed. If Xiao Ruiyuan can't solve it, she will be even more helpless. She secretly prays that the matter can be solved as soon as possible and not let more innocent people die tragically.

Since she no longer has nightmares, Mo Yan's mental state has returned to its best. Recently, she has been wandering around the village every day, trying to see if there is any suitable place that can be opened up to grow rice.

Whether it was her previous life or this life, she was from the south and was used to eating rice. However, due to the terrain, most of the land in Liuyang Village has poor water storage capacity and can only be used as dry land to grow corn, wheat and other dry land crops. There are fertile fields that can be used for paddy fields, but there are very few of them. Most of them have been divided among more than a dozen original households in Liuyang Village.

If the land at home is all dry land and can only grow corn and wheat, she cannot legitimately get the rice out of the space. It is also a waste to just pile it up in the space without using it.

After searching for several days, she really found a good place. The land is low-lying and surrounded by slopes. It is also a low-lying land that accumulates water all year round and has a strong water storage capacity. As long as the rainy season drainage is done well and the spiritual spring water is in hand, the wasteland will be managed well and it will become good farmland sooner or later.

Having made up his mind, Mo Yan told Leli Zhong about the land purchaser and told him his plan.

Li Zhong went to the low-lying land to check it out in person. After analyzing the pros and cons, he expressed his opinion: "That land has good water storage and good soil quality. It is natural to grow rice. But it is too far away and it is not convenient to take care of it." , and there are no roads, so it will be difficult to transport it back after harvesting.

The same goes for buying some wasteland and reclaiming it to grow some dry season crops. Taking care of rice is more troublesome, not only because of the water source problem, but also the problem of pests.

Its okay, Ill ask someone to build a path to get out when the time comes. Besides, we have two oxen at home, so we wont be bothered to take care of them.

Mo Yan thinks these are not problems. It is not easy to find such a place in Liuyang Village.

"Then...then I will go to the village and ask the village chief. If the price is right, I will get the land deed first."

Seeing that Mo Yan had made up his mind, Li Zhong couldn't persuade him any more. That land would definitely be able to grow rice, and it wouldn't matter even if it was harder by then.

Li Zhong approached Yang Bao, but Yang Bao was not sure what price the land would be priced at. So the two of them found a free time and went to the Yamen together. After asking, they found out that each acre was more expensive than wasteland by half a tael of silver, that is, one tael and a half taels of silver per acre.
