Chapter 161: Homeward Heart_1

```

With sixteen hundred taels of silver money, if one were to return to the countryside to buy land and live a comfortable life, they could immediately become a true small landlord.

Even if an acre of good farmland cost twelve or thirteen taels of silver money, sixteen hundred taels would be enough to buy more than a hundred acres.

Owning more than one hundred acres of land is the minimum standard for becoming a landlord.

So one could only be considered a small landlord.

As for people like Wang Furen and Xu Zhenchang, who only have a dozen or so acres of land and assets of two or three hundred taels of silver money, they are far from being landlords. At most, they can be called wealthy peasants.

Even so, they surpass more than 99% of the population.

As long as they manage their affairs steadily and safely, they will have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime.
