Chapter 118 Gentle Knife, Each Cut Cuts to a Life



Song Hanyan looked at Nanzhi thoughtfully, "Zhizhi, how do you know about the Pei family?"

"Uh." Nanzhi suddenly realized that she had talked too much in the room.

She was far from the capital, and Tai Le Village was isolated from news; how could she know about the affairs of the princes and nobles in the capital?

“Song Hanyan, it’s all what those people said,” Nanzhi said, referring to the assassins they encountered on the mountain. “I only heard it secondhand.”

“And,” Nanzhi looked at him, “didn’t you know I could tell fortunes?”

Fearing he would ask more questions, Nanzhi quickly left.

Song Hanyan's deep eyes were fixed on the direction Nan Zhi had left in when Zhou Ping'an walked out from behind him.

"Master, should I go to the capital to investigate?" To see if the Pei family is as the madam described.

"No need."

Zhizhi, what are you hiding?

With Zheng Xinghai's help, Nanzhi quickly obtained the land deed, and also found enough people to help with land reclamation.

A large group of people arrived at the land around the riverbank.

Weeds grow lush and abundant, but in some places, due to prolonged waterlogging, the soil cracked after drying out, and only a few weeds managed to grow.

In the hot summer, whenever there is heavy rain, this place will be flooded by the river, and if crops are planted, there will be no harvest.

Are farmers in places like this so rich they have too much money to spend?

Liu Da: "Village chief, you're not talking about this place, are you?"

Zheng Xinghai nodded, "It's around the riverbank."

Nan Qun frowned. Clearing this land would cost at least several dozen taels of silver, and with the cost of seeds, they would surely lose everything.

Li Tian couldn't help but ask, "Village chief, whose land is this?"

A group of men leaned in to listen, wanting to hear which hothead had too much money to burn.

"Oh, Nan family girl, Nan Zhi."

A group of people turned to look at Nanqun.

Upon hearing that Nanzhi was going to clear the land, Nanqun's brows relaxed. If Zhizhi wanted to clear land, she must have thought of some new way to increase production or found a new crop; he couldn't hold her back.

As everyone watched Nan Qun carrying hoes and heading off to clear the land with great enthusiasm, they couldn't help but think, "Does the Nan family have something wrong with their brains?"

Instead of offering any help or advice, they acted like I got a great deal.
