Location from Beware of Chicken by Casualfarmer
The administrative center of the Azure Hills' smallest district — a town of two thousand on a hilltop, with impressive walls and a growing awareness that the weird farm nearby is changing everything.
Verdant Hill is the nearest town to Fa Ram and the administrative hub for the weakest district of the weakest province. The Lord Magistrate governs from here, managing the mundane business of taxation, trade disputes, and road maintenance that keeps civilization functioning regardless of what the cultivators are doing. The town has changed since Jin's arrival — not through any dramatic intervention, but through the gradual economic effects of having an impossibly productive farm nearby and a growing community of cultivators who actually buy things, pay taxes, and treat mortals like people. The Archives hold records of the district's history. The Zhuge Compound houses the family of Zhuge Tingfeng, the imperial clerk who gave Jin the piglets that became Pi Pa and Chun Ke.
A town of about two thousand people built on top of a hill, surrounded by impressive walls. A palace-like administrative building dominates the center. Inside the walls, orderly streets connect the Archives, Exchange, Tanner District, and Zhuge Compound. The architecture is practical rather than grand — built to last, not to impress.
