"This landowner's family, do they have an official among them or maybe a scholar?" Lin Yan questioned because he wanted to understand the situation of the family of landowners better.
Yun Zhao shook his head and then replied, "As I said …they have money but …" he lowered his voice and added, " Not wits. I heard a rumour from my wife, that their family went to the capital to do business but they made a loss which was why they came back to this small city. Even though it is not as grand as the capital, they can still live in comfort here."
" More importantly, they also have large plots of land which can be opened anytime but they don't do it, instead of opening the land and collecting a fixed pay, they would rather ask the residents of the town to come and help them turn the soil over but neither the residents nor the masters know how to make a barren land fertile which is why its just waste of effort."
