The land here, during rainy season, may become so flooded that there's nowhere to stand, which is why everyone dislikes it being too waterlogged. Even during the dry season, although the crops planted here won't die from drought, no one is willing to buy it.
Moreover, there are no villages around, no villagers to buy land, it depends only on the wealthy merchants from the county to buy, naturally, it's not appealing to anyone.
Lastly, Miss Lin, you might want to consider this: wild wolves and boars often appear around here. It's quite unsafe. Not to mention the packs of wolves, just hearing about those boars capable of toppling trees is scary.
"Hmm."
Lin Caisang nodded her head.
Wild boars? Wolves? What's there to be afraid of? When the wall is built stronger, even tigers won't be a fear, right?
"How large is the area here?" she asked.
"What?"
The official froze for a moment upon hearing her question.
