Translator: Vesper

Ning Meng Yao silently stared at the plain of vegetable field. If she could not do anything related to the modern world, then....being a landlord was not a bad choice.

Thinking this, Ning Meng Yao laughed. Maybe she would also open a store.

Having a plan in her heart, Ning Meng Yao stretched her waist lazily. She locked the door and walked outside.

When she arrived at Yang Zhu’s, Yang Le Le and Madam Qiao were doing embroidery in the courtyard. The two of them were very happy.

“Yao Yao, you are finally visiting.” Yang Le Le put down her embroidery and grabbed Ning Meng Yao’s arm and said with a face that indicated she was wronged.

That pitiful form made Ning Meng Yao couldn’t help herself but laugh. This girl really was....

These past few days, because of Madam Chen’s matter, she did not let Yang Le Le went over. Even the time in which the students studied was lessened.

“I see that you are bored.” Ning Meng Yao smiled.

Speaking about this, Yang Le Le’s face collapsed and stared at Ning Meng Yao sadly: “You’re still laughing here. How do you plan on handling Yang Cui’s family’s matter?”

She really did not know. Why would those people find trouble for Yao Yao, such a nice person? Yang Le Le did not like it one bit.

“It’s nothing. It cannot lift any big wave. That’s right, is Uncle Yang at home?” Thinking of the purpose she came with, Ning Meng Yao asked Yang Le Le with a smile.

“My dad is out because of something. What are you searching him for?”

“There are some things. Then I will wait for him to return.” Ning Meng Yao smiled, not minding at all.

“Alright.”

Ning Meng Yao sat on the side as she watched the two girls embroidering, her lips slightly curled up. Now, Madam Qiao was also following her little aunt to learn how to embroider.

Towards her own sister-in-law, Yang Le Le was very satisfied and very generous.

The three of them chatted while doing activities and until an hour later, Yang Zhu returned with a face full of exhaustion.

“Dad, you’re back.”

“Uncle Yang.”

Yang Zhu saw that Ning Meng Yao was present and his face carried smile: “Yao Yao came. What are you coming for today?”

“I want to find Uncle Yang to buy some land.”

“Buying land? What are you buying land for?” Yang Zhu looked at Ning Meng Yao in surprise.

She did not look like someone who could plant. Why would she buy land all of a sudden? This was unbelievable.

Yang Le Le also looked at Ning Meng Yao in surprise, her expression was as if she had seen a ghost.

“Yes, I want to buy land. Maybe it is for personal use or to rent it.” Ning Meng Yao smiled as she gave a random explanation.

Yang Zhu thought it over. It was reasonable. A good bilk was still income.

“Okay then. How much do you plan on buying?”

“How many available lands are there in the village?” Ning Meng Yao pondered and gazed at Yang Zhu.

Yang Zhu helplessly looked at Ning Meng Yao: “There is tens of mu of land empty around your house.”

“What happened?”

“The whole family violated something and the land was taken and has to be distributed all over again. This is what I did today. I originally wanted to tell this to the villagers but if you want, then I will directly give it to you.” Yang Zhu shook his head. Once something like this happened, he would become busy. If only busy then it’s fine, but in the end, he did not get anything.

If one bought a good land, then that was a happy thing, but if it was a poor one, then sprays of saliva could flood it dead.

This kind of energy consuming thing, if not necessary, he really was not willing to blindly meddle.

Ning Meng Yao thought about it. Smashing her own doorway was nothing and it was also near, so she nodded in agreement: “Then please give me. Uncle Yang, why don’t you elaborate to me?”

Yang Zhu nodded and started to elaborate. This piece of land, there is twenty mu that had good absorption, fifteen mu for medium grade, lower grade is five mu. Dry land and mountain land are thirty five mu altogether. Although the land with good absorbability rate is more expensive, but wanting to buy all these land would need not small amount of money spend.

“The land that can absorb water easily is eight silvers a mu, the medium grade is six silvers, the lower grade is four silvers. The mountain land and the dry land have the same price, two silvers once a mu. Meng Yao girl, you really want to buy?” Yang Zhu uncertainly stared at Ning Meng Yao and spoke with worry.

“Yes, I want to buy. The total is three hundred and forty silvers. Can you please help me settle the formalities? I don’t quite understand those.” Ning Meng Yao was embarrassed. She had never done this before so this was truly her first time.

*mu is an ancient chinese measurement. It varies with location but is commonly 806.65 square yards, ranged from 1/30 to â?? hectare (333.333 to 1,250 square metres).
