But why would this happen? The whole mountain is full of emeralds.
Xiao Yao asked without a change in her demeanor, "Mincheng, when did you start developing this hill?"
"It was three months ago!" Mincheng answered, "Three months ago, my family was developing another larger mountain. This smaller mountain was half given, half sold to us at a preferential price by the government when we bid for the larger one!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yao understood; the previous buyers had not invested in this hill. In that case, she, Xiao Yao, must be the first to buy goods from this mountain.
Xiao Yao nodded, her voice tinged with banter, "Oh? Your government is quite sentimental. They can even give away mountains?"
