    ?

    When he walked over, Jiang Ning took the initiative to nod to him first, and he immediately nodded back.

    "The lord is here, everyone, look quickly." At this time, someone saw Chu Xuanchen and his party approaching, and hurriedly said.

    And those workers who were carrying hoes and were about to dig a pond here also surrounded them curiously.

    "I will see the prince." Jiang Ning and Yu Wenxian hurried over and saluted Chu Xuanchen.

    "Wai Li, my lords, what is going on?" Chu Xuanchen looked behind him, and saw groups of dark people standing on the ground.

    They were headed by Zhang Shifan, and among them were several richly-dressed and landlord-style people obediently following Zhang Shifan.

    Behind them are house slaves holding weapons such as iron swords and iron rods.

    Jiang Ning stepped forward and hurriedly said: "My lord, according to your plan, we should dig a storage pond here. However, digging a pond here will occupy the good land of Mr. Zhang and several other landlords, so they are not willing  .¡±

    Zhang Shifan snorted coldly, "Li Wang, you came at the right time, not because I didn't want to. It's because you invaded and occupied the best fertile land of my family. My ancestral grave is also on this fertile land. How can I let you  Digging up the ancestral grave of this official's family, wouldn't this official be an unfilial son?"

    Other landowners also said, "Yes, my lord, our land is the most fertile land, but you want to take it to dig ponds, that's too wasteful."

    "We don't even know what the pond was dug for. If King Li is just a joke and wants to occupy the land we live on, then please forgive us for not agreeing!"

    "His Royal Highness, you should change to another place. These farmlands are our wealth and life, and we will not let you occupy them."

    After hearing this, Yu Wenxian hurriedly said: "Everyone, please listen to me. Above this farmland, there is the largest tributary of the Jiajiang River flowing down. We can only dig a pond here. This pond is related to everyone's life.  It¡¯s safe, you can¡¯t change places casually.¡±

    "But you can't take our farmland without our consent!" said a landlord.

    Chu Xuanchen glanced at everyone, and suddenly said: "What do you mean by seizure? Didn't this king bid according to the market price?"

    "A bid? King Li, our piece of land is the most fertile land in Jiangzhou. You only paid thirty taels of silver, and you want to buy our one acre of land. I think this is almost like taking over by force!" Zhang Shifan said coldly.  Humph.

    "What's the matter? The king gave 20 taels and 1 mu of other land according to the market price. You gave 30 taels here, and you still think it's too little?" Chu Xuanchen said coldly.

    Zhang Shifan narrowed his eyes in disdain, "It's not that I think it's too little, but that the price you gave is too low. The price of such a good land is very different from that of a bad one. It can't be bought with more than ten taels of silver.  You give this little money, do you want to dismiss us as beggars?"

    "How about doubling the king and buying you an acre of land with sixty taels of silver?" Chu Xuanchen said.

    "Sixty taels?" The landlords nearby exclaimed in disbelief.

    His Royal Highness Li Wang is too stupid, this land is obviously worth thirty taels, and he wants to double it.

    They really wanted to agree immediately, but seeing Zhang Shifan's cold eyes, they lowered their heads in fright and dared not speak.

    Zhang Shifan snorted coldly, "Li Wang, do you think I'm short of money? Do you think you can buy me by doubling the amount?" (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
