If you bought land to build upon it, or with the aim of selling it when a better plot becomes available, there is no on it, because it is not considered an article of trade. For more information about zakat on land, please refer to no. 84293. Regarding zakat on salary, please refer to Fatwa no. 156249 and what it references. As for your last question, please submit it separately.
