Second watch, seeking pink.

To build temples and gardens for Empress Shen, two mountaintops and a large tract of land were occupied. A portion of these mountains and lands originally belonged to the Shen Family in Xiao Shen Tun, while others were ownerless wastelands.
The reason these wastelands had not been cultivated was that most of them were hilly and unsuitable for planting grain crops.
The land in the mountains that Lian Manman's family wanted to buy also belonged to the wastelands. However, since it was near the construction site, their purchase had to be approved by the Shen Family.
Old Huang had been running around, and in just a few days, he had managed to get the matter taken care of.
The fields to the east from the foot of the Guarding-Temple Forest could be purchased by Lian Manman's family at will.
