Chapter 42 Allocating Land for Housing_1
The refugees gathered north of the city were many, and there were also quite a few within the city. However, those who could enter the city, most of them either had money in hand or connections and relatives, so it was not difficult for them to settle down and acquire property in the city.
Ordinary peasant families could only honestly follow the government's arrangements and be relocated to villages under the jurisdiction of Jingji. Those with money might buy some good farmland while those without money had to put more effort into cultivating the wasteland allocated to them by the government, but it was still possible to provide for the family.
The Mo Family had over a thousand taels of silver, which was not a small amount. With some luck in finding a suitable house and shop, it was enough to settle down in the city. However, neither Mo Yan nor Mo Qingze wanted to do so.
