Chapter 48 -48 Wastelands All Want_1
Xia Ningxing frowned slightly, as she was someone from the new era and naturally did not believe in these superstitions. It was likely that there was just a problem with the soil quality.
The most important thing was that they didn’t rely on farming to make a living anyway. Whether the land could yield crops was actually irrelevant. What mattered was that it could be taxed.
However, she couldn’t just come out and say that the land could be taxed in the future…
A trace of helplessness briefly crossed Xia Ningxing’s still childish face, it seemed she would have to resort to shameless and unscrupulous methods!
Suddenly, the little creature puffed up her cheeks toward Mrs. Xia and was on the verge of tears, like an ignorant child who must have candies, stamping her foot, “I don’t care, I want those five pieces of land here!”
“Bao’er, that land really isn’t good…” Mrs. Xia saw that she was about to cry and quickly squatted down to comfort her.
The five brothers looked at each other and then decided to trust their sister, “Mom, why not trust Ningxing? I feel like Ningxing has never made a wrong decision.”
For instance, acting to earn money.
Or selling perfumes.
So this time, they were willing to trust her too.
Xia Ningxing had thought that her brothers surely wouldn’t be able to persuade Mrs. Xia, but to her surprise, Mrs. Xia blinked, nodded, and said, “It seems like it!”
So…
The Xia·doting mother·tenderly wiped away Ningxing’s tears while looking up at the village chief to tell him their final choice, “Uncle, we’ve decided on the five acres in the northwest corner!”
“But you can’t grow crops on that land. Are you really sure you want it?” The village chief had heard their conversation before, but seeing that they had truly decided, he couldn’t help but try to advise them again.
After all, the farmland is a farmer’s life.
However, no sooner had the village chief finished speaking than the villagers below started clamoring, seemingly eager for the Xia family to choose the barren land.
“Village chief, the Xia Jianren family can now make money and have long stopped caring about farming. Since they want the barren land, let them take it!”
“They won’t starve to death without farming, unlike us.”
“Exactly, exactly!”
Everyone started yelling, especially those villagers who would be picking their fields last, hoping that the barren land would be selected first by someone blind to its condition.

That way, even if they couldn’t choose any good fields, it would be much better than taking over a barren land where no crops could grow!
“What’s all this noise, shut your mouths!” Almost everyone present was speaking, and in an instant, it was as if hundreds more ducks had joined in. Overwhelmed, the village chief glared at the people below before confirming once more with Mrs. Xia, “Wife of Xia Jianren, are you really sure of your decision?”
Fearing that Mrs. Xia might change her mind halfway, Ningxing looked at her with wet, pitiful deer-like eyes, seemingly ready to burst into tears if she dared to go back on her word.
Mrs. Xia clenched her teeth, “Yes, our family will take the five acres in the northwest corner.”
“Ah… alright then, as you wish.” Since they insisted, the village chief didn’t have much else to say, sighed, and recorded it in his notebook.
Seeing the barren land actually being chosen, the villagers couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, and of course, they didn’t forget to mock the Xia family.
“The Xia Jianren family must have gone crazy from doing business, even wanting the barren land!”
“Didn’t they say it? They really don’t care about the little money made from farming.”
“Tsk tsk tsk…”
Old Mrs. Xia was also in the crowd. Seeing and hearing that her second son’s family had chosen some barren land, her face turned pale, and with a sharp and mean expression, she spat on the ground, “A family ruining piece of crap! To think such a big decision was left to a loss-making good-for-nothing!”
But as she ranted, she suddenly thought of something and pulled the wife of the eldest son closer to whisper in her ear.
