What does "Land" mainly talk about?

"The Land" is a novel by the Bulgarian writer Erin Pillin. The outline of the story is as follows:

The priest wants to pray for rain in the farmland for the drought-stricken village of Potgoli, but a selfish and greedy young man named Yenio wants to pray for rain. The priest prayed for rain on his family's land, which made the villagers hate Yenio.

Yenio and Ivan are brothers. After they separated from their brother Ivan, they opened a small hotel. Ivan and his wife were concerned about Yeinio's marriage and found a bride for him. She was the most beautiful in the village. The girl Zvida, the two young people also love each other very much.

Zvida’s mother felt that Yenior had a bad temper, was arrogant and rude, and was not very pleased with her. However, she felt that he was a diligent and wealthy young man after all. In order to prevent her daughter from being poor all her life like herself, she finally decided to Agree to the marriage. Zvida was very happy and told her friend Stanka about the engagement. Unexpectedly, Stanka fainted on the spot. She is the only daughter of the richest man in the village, and her family owns a lot of land. Not only is she ugly, she is also hunchbacked. But she also falls in love with Yenio. Zvida's good news was like a bolt from the blue to her, and she became depressed and bedridden from then on. Her distant relative Banezuk saw her heartache and knew that Yeni was more greedy for land than life, so he volunteered to speak on her behalf. One day, Banezuk told Yenior that he had missed the opportunity and let go of a fortune that came to his door. He also said that if he married Stanka, wouldn't her family's property fall to him after her father's death? Ye Niuo woke up from a dream after saying something. He regretted that he had done such a stupid thing, and hurriedly mounted his horse and ran towards the fields like crazy, inspecting the farmland, pastures, orchards and mills of the Stanka family. He cursed himself for being stupid, hated Zvida for "coaxing" him, and would not go to her house for several days. Anna sent someone to tell him that Zvida was waiting for him at home. He viciously asked Zvida to get out of here and where she came from. Zvida understood everything immediately, restrained her emotions and returned the ring to him. He immediately proposed to Stanka, and the wedding was held before people knew what was going on.

After getting married, Stanka devoted all his energy to the family and became Yenior's slave. Ye Niao continued to purchase land, and his father-in-law gave him two large pieces of land. He fenced the land with barbed wire and planned to build a manor. But a corner of Ivan's land broke into his manor and cut off the straight fence line. This made Yenia very dissatisfied and always wanted to get Ivan's land. He returned home and just drank. Seeing Stanka's deformed figure made him even more disgusted. He alienated her day by day and tried to stay as little as possible with her. Stanka exerted all the charming skills of a woman, but could not change his mind. Yenia became more and more cruel and rude, and sometimes even spent the night in a small hotel.

One day, he saw Ivan cutting down a century-old oak tree in the field, so he took the opportunity to ask Ivan to sell him the land. Ivan strictly adhered to his ancestral property and refused to sell the land. He said reproachfully that no one in his clan was so greedy for land. The disgraced Yenio was extremely depressed. After a drinking binge, he had the idea of ??killing Ivan, because if Ivan died, the childless Anna would remarry, and he would be able to secure the land.

One morning, Yenior rode into the city and saw Ivan tying a plow and preparing to plow the land. He dismounted and went to the woods, took out a bottle of wine and drank again. He was intoxicated with sinful thoughts, lying on the ground and fell asleep. When he woke up, the sun was already at the top, and there was no one around except Ivan, sleeping under the oak tree. A deep groove had been cut into the oak tree, and the ax for cutting the tree was placed next to Ivan. He thought that Ivan had finally fallen into his hands. In order to cover up the crime, he picked up a stone and threw it at Ivan's face without using an axe. Ivan convulsed and tried to stand up, but the injury was too serious and he fell on his back. Yenior quickly grabbed the axe, chopped down the oak tree, and let the trunk fall on Ivan before slipping away.

Ivan was seriously injured, but his life was saved after the hospital's efforts, while Yenior's heart was filled with shadows after doing such a cruel thing.

After encountering Ivan's eyes by chance, he could no longer bear the condemnation of his conscience and began to torture himself. As a result, his family property was wasted and he finally became a beggar and died of illness in a storm. What's even more ridiculous is that people forgot to pick up the candle in his hand, causing his body to be burned.
