The officer stepped back, the village chief stepped forward, and Master Guo unfolded the map.
“The county magistrate approved a total of five locations to re-establish villages.
It’s just that there has never been a village that meets the requirements, and your village is lucky to be the first one.
You have picked up this prime position."
The village chief looked in the direction that Master Guo pointed, and saw that it was the closest place to Nanqing City among the five places.
This alone is good enough.
The village chief quickly thanked the county magistrate and the legal advisor, and also expressed his satisfaction with the position.
Master Guo laughed out loud and said, "This place was originally called Peach Blossom Valley, and it has a connection with the name of your village.
Moreover, it only takes the time of an incense stick to walk to the county town.
Moreover, many scholars and poets usually go to the valley to see the peach blossoms, and your village can also start some small business.
It’s a truly wonderful location.”
The village chief nodded repeatedly. It was not a good position.
Fortunately, we arrived early. The other four places, the ones closest to the county town, would take a whole morning to walk to.
However, Master Guo did not just praise blindly.
The disadvantages of Taohua Valley were also mentioned.
For example, that place is not the old site of the village, so there are no houses, not even dilapidated houses.
But the other four places all have some houses, more or less.
So when the people of Taohua Village went there, they had no houses to live in, and when it was windy and rainy, they had to learn from their mistakes and find a way out.
Also, the Peach Blossom Valley is all uncultivated wasteland.
The people of Taohua Village have to open up the wasteland on their own.
Moreover, there are mostly mountains around, with very few plains.
Master Guo asked the village chief to discuss the matter with the villagers. After all, farmers generally value their land very much.
The other four places are far away from the county seat, but correspondingly, they have more arable land.
The village chief asked in detail about the size of the valley.
Then he asked Master Guo to wait for a moment while he went to discuss it with the villagers.
The village chief called the heads of each family together and explained the situation.
When the villagers heard that Taohua Valley was so close to the county town, they were very excited.
Although there is little arable land, every household can bring eggs, vegetables and even firewood to the city to sell for money.
Not to mention, there are many people visiting Taohua Valley itself.
Then you can open a tea stall on the road and make money.
As long as you can make money, the lack of arable land is not a problem.
Although there is little arable land, there are many mountains.
The wasteland on the mountain can be developed slowly by ourselves without paying taxes.
The villagers discussed it quickly, and the village chief soon came to Master Guo and said, "Master Guo, our Taohua Village has chosen Taohua Valley."
