<h4>Chapter 364: Chapter 364 The Good Land Was Bought</h4>


    Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming lingered sweetly for a while in the house, then decided to visit the Vige Chief’s house to buynd, following the old custom of bringing along two pounds of meat since gifts ease tasks.


    As soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw the Vige Chief’s wife, "Auntie, is Uncle Vige Chief home?"


    "Yes, he’s at home. Both of you,e inside."


    Every time the Vige Chief’s wife saw them, she greeted them with a smile. Now, the couple were quite important in the vige, holding a higher status than her own husband.


    Yang Ming handed the meat to the Vige Chief’s wife, "Auntie, this is a little token of appreciation. We also need to ask Uncle for a favor."


    "What talk of trouble or no trouble! Come inside quickly." The Vige Chief’s wife warmly weed Yang Ming and Xiaoxiao into the house, then went to the kitchen to store the meat.


    Upon entering the house, they immediately saw the Vige Chief. Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming promptly greeted him with respect, "Uncle Vige Chief."


    "Ah, you two sit down. What brings you here this time?"


    Yang Ming’s wife had helped their vige significantly, previously with the cabbage harvest, and now by hiring many female workers, things had begun to improve for the vige. Perhaps their visit would bring another surprise.


    "Uncle Vige Chief, my wife and I would like to buy twenty mu of tnd here in our vige. Which location do you think would be suitable right now?"


    Yang Ming directly stated their need to purchasend.


    Upon hearing this, the Vige Chief frowned, puzzling Xiaoxiao. Was buyingnd in this ce really such a difficult matter?


    "Uncle Vige Chief, is there some difficulty? Can’t we buynd now?"


    The Vige Chief sighed, looking troubled, "Yang Ming’s wife, I won’t hide it from you. You’vee toote. A wealthy man bought all our vige’snd yesterday. If only you’de two days earlier, oh well."


    "..." This waspletely unforeseen by Yang Ming and Xiaoxiao. Who could be so wealthy toe and buynd here?


    The vige wasn’t wealthy,nd was sparse, and the yield wasn’t that great. Compared to other viges, theirnd was definitely not the best pick.


    "Uncle Vige Chief, is there really nond left at all?"


    Xiaoxiao was somewhat incredulous, thus she asked again.


    "s, there’s still one plot left, but thatnd, because it’s in a low-lying area, has been yielding poorly for many years. In years with excessive rainfall, itpletely fails to produce, so the person who bought thend yesterday didn’t want that plot. But, Uncle can’t in good conscience, sell you such poornd."


    Hearing this, Xiaoxiao felt the Vige Chief was truly decent, not just pushing the inferiornd onto them because they wanted to buy.


    "Uncle Vige Chief, is it the plot near Xiawa Vige?"


    "Exactly."


    "Husband, do you know that plot ofnd?"


    Yang Ming nodded, "Thatnd really isn’t very good; it’s too low and often gets flooded by rainwater."


    Xiaoxiao thought for a moment. Lownds were everywhere, but with proper care, perhaps it could still work, "Uncle Vige Chief, how many mu is that plot?"


    "It’s thirty mu."


    "And how much is it in silver?"


    "Since thatnd yields poorly and nobody wants it, although it’s tnd, it’s sold at the price of mountainnd, just five taels per mu, so thirty mu is one hundred fifty taels."


    At home, Yang Ming had mentioned that tnd was ten taels per mu, so this way, we would save half the silver, "Then Uncle Vige Chief, could we go see that plot ofnd?"


    The Vige Chief was somewhat surprised, seeing the determination in Yang Ming’s wife. Uncertain, he looked towards Yang Ming.


    Seeing Yang Ming nod, he agreed, "Alright, let’s go see that plot ofnd right now."
