Although it seemed like there wasn't much to gain, Zhao Guang was actually very pleased.
This transaction only cost him some aluminum alloy coins, which wasn't a significant expense. However, the land he acquired in exchange was vast.
Under normal circumstances, even if he had the funds to rent it, it would have been extremely difficult.
Now, it was rented to him for the maximum possible duration, and he even had the right of first refusal for lease renewals. As long as he continued leasing, the land might as well have been his own.
As for the restriction that the land could only be used for cultivation, Zhao Guang wasn't particularly concerned.
Even with a large amount of grain cultivation, there was still a shortage of food on his own territory, especially with the recent rapid population growth.
With the base industries lagging, even with Otherworld's production capabilities, it was hard to keep up.
