As the officer spoke, he felt that what he said was indeed not very good, and smiled awkwardly.
“As the saying goes, live on the mountain and eat the mountain.
You have many mountains, and the produce from them should be plentiful. There's no tax for three years, so take your time and there's no rush."
[Yes, live by the mountain, eat the mountain, don’t have too many good things in the mountain.
Apart from anything else, all the herbs that Doctor Zhou wants have to be found in the mountains.
With so many people in our family following the Zhou family to collect herbs, we should be able to earn enough to live on.
When Meng Shuyan heard the word "mountain", and their village was surrounded by mountains on three sides, her eyes lit up.
The Meng family, who were originally worried about having to farm in the mountains in the future, felt relieved after hearing Fubao's voice.
There is always a way when you reach the mountain, so take one step at a time.
"Brother Li, are there still indigenous people in Sanshan Village?
Are there any other villages nearby?"
In just a moment, Meng Shijie had already asked the officer to call him "big brother" and even asked for the man's last name.
“There are still two families in Sanshan Village.
There is a village on each side, which is quite far away and requires crossing two mountains.
There aren't many people in those two villages, just two or three families each, but a few families were also sent there today.
So there is plenty of land, enough for you to plant."
“But you’ll have to build your own house when you get there.
There were some empty houses in the village, which had fallen into disrepair and might not be habitable.
You have to be careful.
But there is plenty of land here, you can build as much as you want."
Officer Li kept emphasizing how much land there was, but no one could figure out how much it was. An hour later, they arrived at Sanshan Village.
After entering the village, you will know it by seeing it.
In order to take a shortcut, they took the path behind the mountain.
That is, it comes from the mountain in the middle of the three mountains behind the village, and the mountain path on the left.
After walking through the entire village, I arrived at the entrance and discovered traces of two families living there.
Just looking at the residential land of Sanshan Village and the houses that have not collapsed and are still standing, it seems that at least dozens of families could live there in the past, but now there are only two families left.
Just tell me whether the land is big or not.
Since the homestead can accommodate so many people, the land for farming should not be too small.
It is winter now, and the two families in the village are not working outside, but working at home.
Seeing so many people suddenly coming to the village, some with ox carts and some with horse carts, they all came out to watch the fun.
There was actually an officer leading the way.
Everyone was wondering which big shot had come to their remote mountain village to hunt?
“It’s just in time that your two families came out.
Let me tell you something.
These people will be the villagers of your Sanshan Village from now on."
Along the way, Meng Shijie made Officer Li very happy.
They bring him food and drinks, chat with him, and praise him for his good looks and ability to speak. How can he not be confused by the praise?
After Officer Li arrived, he did not go back immediately.
"Where's the village chief?"
The two families were still a little confused about what Officer Li said.
When the officer called the village chief, a man who looked like an old man stood up and bowed respectfully.
"Sir, please give your orders."
“Come on, I remember your last name is Yang.
Village Chief Yang, take us to see where your village’s land is.”
Village chief Yang looked up at everyone, then lowered his head, put on a smiling face, and walked up to the police officer, nodding and bowing to lead the way.
The two remaining families in the village both have the surname Yang, and they are brothers.
Village chief Yang is the eldest, and the other family is his younger brother's family.
Seeing this, three more men from the Yang family came out and followed.
Meng Shuyan had already looked around the village.
[The feng shui of being surrounded by mountains on three sides is quite good. Judging from the vegetation on the mountains, there should be no shortage of water here.
There are only two families left, they must have gone to the war before.
The man didn't come back from the war, so what about the woman?】
Meng Shuyan found it strange that there were only two families left.
When the Meng family heard her thoughts, they also felt a little strange.
But now is not the time to think about these things.
"Sir, where did these people come from?"
"Village Chief Yang, how long has it been since you last went to town?
I don't know anything.
These people have migrated from other provinces and will be part of your village from now on.
Their household registration has been completed.
From now on, all these will make your villagers happy!"
Officer Li felt happy about what he said, and Village Chief Yang must be even happier.
Just after leaving the village, not far away, I saw a large piece of land.
However, most of the land is sloping, so it's no wonder that Officer Li said several times that the land is not good, but if there are too many.
This uneven land is indeed not easy to grow crops on.
"Tell them about the lands of your two families, and what are the remaining ones?"
Even with the officers present, Village Chief Yang didn't dare to point or say anything.
【Wow!
Hurry up and grab some land!
No matter what kind of land it is, it must all be connected together. Don't let it be scattered here and there. It will be difficult to farm there.
It’s been sent, it’s going to be sent!
I want to be the silly daughter of a landlord, the second generation of a landlord! 】
Village chief Yang struggled for a moment, but still reluctantly said that the land belonged to Sanshan Village and the mountains on three sides of the village.
"Sir, it's getting late. Let them watch it here by themselves. You can stay with me and rest at my house tonight."
After saying this, Village Chief Yang ignored everyone and turned to talk to the officer.
When Officer Li heard that it was indeed getting late, he did not linger any longer.
"Brother Meng, I will go back and report to the Lord first.
If you have any questions, you can come to the government office to find me."
When Village Chief Yang heard what Officer Li said, he could no longer maintain the kind expression on his face.
Meng Shuxia listened to his sister's wishes and received orders from his grandparents, so he was riding a horse to enclose the land.
The Zhou and Wang families are also making marks.
