Chapter 87 Kneeling Down to Beg for the First Slot (15)

"Uncle Luo, tomorrow morning, I will have the butler go to the village to buy the land. We're offering ten silver pieces per acre. As for the crops that are already in the fields, they will still belong to the individuals, and only after the harvest will we take back the land. Then we'll measure any remaining wasteland, and I'll buy it all, including the mountains and ponds," Feng Xuxu said, pausing to sip her tea and moisten her throat before continuing, "Uncle Luo, after you get back, categorize the women and girls in the village into four age groups: zero to twenty, twenty to forty, forty to sixty, sixty to the oldest age. I want to make a similar count of the men on my side."

"Ah, alright, I'll get right on it," Clan Leader Luo said excitedly, ready to rush back and conduct the census.

"Uncle Luo, wait a moment, I haven't finished speaking yet!" Feng Xuxu called out, stopping Luo Jiabao as he was leaving.
