Bai Shan and Bai Erlang were dumbfounded, only finding their voices after a while, "Is it wasteland?"
Manbao shook her head repeatedly, beaming with joy, "No, it's official land, allocated from the official land, my share is over in Yongzhou."
Officials of Great Jin are accounted for—retired, unexpectedly resigning, imprisoned or dismissed for crimes, or transferred elsewhere, all official lands must be reclaimed or reassigned.
Land ownership belongs to the state, officials only have usage rights, the output belongs to the individual, once you leave, the land stays behind.
So, Manbao doesn't worry about not having land assigned.
The officials in the capital were already understaffed, often one person doing the work of one and a half, last year when the Prince of Yizhou rebelled, many officials were dismissed, now one person is doing the work of two, so there's no shortage of official land.
