Happy Farm Ranch

Chapter 31
"Contracting?" The village chief was startled for a moment, and then laughed, "Are you afraid that you will make money in the future, and the villagers will not accept it? Don't worry, you can open up any land you want, and absolutely no one has any objections." If you still feel uneasy, I, the village head, will issue a letter of proof for you, and the land and mountains in our village have formal procedures, and you are not bad for any of them!"

After changing his strategy, Su Mu certainly hoped that he could have as few disputes as possible over land resources.

The village chief took a sip of his wine and laughed: "In the afternoon, let's hold a village meeting and let everyone know that as for the contracting fee, let's forget it. Your family has registered permanent residence in our village and has not moved. Everyone in the village enjoys the same treatment. As long as you are willing to open up wasteland, you can plant as much land as you want.”

We had a delicious hot pot meal, and we had serious business to do in the afternoon, so a few of us didn't drink much this time.

It's not time for lunch break yet.The village head guessed that everyone had almost finished eating, so he wandered to the village committee compound, took out a bunch of keys and opened the door of the office, then turned on the power and blew twice in front of the big horn.

"Community members pay attention, community members pay attention! We will have a meeting in the courtyard at three o'clock this afternoon. Everyone knows that the old Su family has moved back. The main purpose is to discuss the issue of allocating land to them. , Uncle Su said that this matter is related to everyone's interests, so I still discuss it with everyone. At least one person from each household is present, and they run very fast when eating meat. Don't be lazy now, so as to save later If there is another dispute, if there is no problem in the discussion, everyone can sign it!"

After shouting twice in the loudspeaker, the village head turned off the power.

Before three o'clock in the afternoon, the village committee compound became lively.

There are often plenary meetings in the village. Everyone is from the same village, and everyone makes up their minds about everything. Coupled with the presence of a few elders, it can be said that the results of the plenary meeting are final.

The spring is bright and beautiful, and the girls and daughters-in-law of every household are all carrying benches and needlework; the young and old are also smoking and chatting in groups in the compound;

What was even more gratifying was the children, seven or eight of them gathered together to chase and fight, laughing and joking.Some adults in the family feel annoyed and give a few dollars to buy candy, so that the ears can be clean.

When there are more people, there will naturally be more topics, but most of the discussions are about the dinner at Su's house last night.

The men couldn't talk without the two cars that Su Mu drove back, as well as all kinds of home appliances in their home.

"It's been so many years, nothing has changed!" Grandpa walked into the village committee compound, feeling that time had suddenly gone backwards, and the houses and trees here were not much different from before.Even the situation of the plenary meeting was exactly the same as in memory, but there were not many people who looked familiar.

Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, the village chief stood on the limestone platform and cleared his throat, "First of all, everyone warmly welcomes Uncle Su's family back to live in the alcove!"

"Huh, huh, huh!" The whole village applauded enthusiastically. More and more people are running away these years, but fewer people are returning to their roots.He invited the whole village to eat meat as soon as he came back, so he had to show it well.

"Let's talk about the land distribution." The village chief waved his hands to signal them to be quiet.

"Uncle Su and the others have traveled outside after all. They are knowledgeable and insightful! When we return to our Huatanao, of course we want to do something big!"

Before he finished speaking, the villagers below exploded with a bang!

It's no wonder they had such a big reaction. This kind of scene and attitude is very similar to the guy who talked about messing with mealworms a few years ago!Didn't he cheat everyone out of money under the guise of benefiting the villagers?The Su family did this when they came back, and even offered to eat meat to win people's hearts. Could it be for this purpose?

"Everyone be quiet, listen to me!" The village head shouted several times before suppressing the discussion. "Uncle Su and the others didn't cheat money this time! The main reason is that their family wants to plant more land and is afraid that everyone will have opinions, so they held a meeting to discuss it."

After hearing the following passage, the villagers immediately relaxed.

Isn't it just farming!There is nothing else in the valley, but it is true that the land is vast and sparsely populated. You can plant as much as you want and open up wasteland by yourself. What is there to discuss?
"People have to eat. How can they do it if they don't have land? You, the village chief, can just give it to others!"

"That's right, the old Su's family has a relatively large population, so it's enough for everyone to help open up more wasteland."

"Did the village chief call us for help? No problem, we are here whenever you are called!"

……

The scene below was a little out of control again, and the village chief coughed twice before calming down.

"The current situation is that Uncle Su's family plans to contract all the unused land in our village! We all know that Muzi is a college student, and he said that he is going to try a new type of agriculture, so he wants to take all those wastelands and mountains Cultivate it, and then use what others have learned in school to make a lot of money!
The land in Huatanao is collectively owned by us, and I asked you to come here to discuss and discuss. If they spend their own efforts to open up wasteland, do they still need to pay the contract fee? "

The village chief put the most core issue on the table. Whether it was the elders on the stage or the crowd below, they were all taken aback for a moment and then started a heated discussion.

After a while, the village head felt that the result was almost ready, so he waved his hand to signal silence, "Anyone who has an opinion can stand up and say it."

"How can we ask for money from other people? Isn't the land in our village cleared up wasteland by ourselves if anyone needs it? We have planted the land for so many years and have never paid for it. Why should Mu Zi pay for it?" The first to stand up was The second fool, he is a little silly, but he is very real to everyone.

"Why not?" As soon as the second fool sat down, someone stood up and objected, "They didn't occupy the 01:30 o'clock, but that was all the wasteland in the village! Now we can grow enough land for our family. If there are more people, isn’t it enough to eat? At that time, the land will be occupied by himself, so what will others eat?”

"It's true to say that, other people's families reclaim more than ten or twenty acres of land, and it's really inappropriate for their family to occupy all the rest..."

"Why is it inappropriate? The land is deserted, and it is a good thing for someone to take advantage of it. If you are jealous, do you want to plant yourself to open up wasteland?"

"Not opening up wasteland now does not mean that it will not be used in the future. Anyway, it is absolutely inappropriate to give it to the old Su family for free."

"Then give the Guodipo to your house for free, why don't you? You have the ability to keep it from being abandoned, and you can use it at any time!"

……

After a heated discussion for a few minutes, Mr. Liu Wu, the oldest man in the village, tapped the ground with his cane, and everyone fell silent.

"If you ask me, the land must be distributed to the old Su's family, but they can't plant all the wasteland in the village. Chang Geng, how many mu of land per person in the village now?"

When the village chief saw Mr. Liu's question, he hurriedly replied, "About five acres of land."

"Then according to the number of acres, we will allocate five acres of land to each person of the old Su family for free. The wasteland in the remaining villages should indeed be used well. Anyway, except for the land by the river, other places are considered wasteland. It also depends on the weather, so let them charge them a little symbolic contract fee.

In the future, if someone wants to buy more land, they will contract it back from others at the contracted price.

But there is one thing, as long as the contract fee is paid, the wasteland will be managed by the Su family.If anyone wants to take advantage of the good work done by others and the fattened land, I will be the first to disagree!

The person who subcontracts must be because the land at home is really not enough to plant; moreover, the principle of proximity must not be picked and picked to go to other people's good land; thirdly, if anyone subcontracts, let the good land go to waste , Watch me break your legs with a walking stick!Tell me, is this okay? "

Liu Wuye is highly respected and just, so he is very popular among the people.

Hearing his proposal, everyone on and off the stage nodded in agreement.

"Then follow the rules set by the fifth master. We have to discuss the contract price again." The village chief looked at Su Mu, saw him nodding in agreement, and proceeded to the next step.

The plenary meeting did not last long and ended.

The main reason is that it is easier to negotiate the contract price per mu of land. Almost everyone does not want the contract price to be too high. Otherwise, when they really want to switch to the contract in the future, wouldn’t they have to pay a lot of money?At this stage, those wastelands are indeed a waste. Let the Su family pay a part of the money to take down these wastelands, and then slowly raise them to become fertile. After subcontracting, they can directly farm the land, which is mutually beneficial.

In the end, Su Mu considered that he didn't have much money to turn around, so he discussed with the villagers and signed the contract first.First free up your hands to open up the allocated wasteland, when will the rest of the land be occupied, and when will you pay for it.

The villagers agreed unanimously on this point. After all, the contract price is not high but there are many places that cannot be supported.

All the money is paid out at one time, and relying on their family, it doesn't mean that they can open up wasteland!
The contract is signed first, which means that the land is occupied first in name, and the money is paid only after the wasteland is actually opened up.For this reason, Liu Wuye added another item to the contract, stipulating a two-year deadline. If Su Mu still fails to mine all the wasteland after two years, this quota will not only be reserved for him, but other people can also participate in it. .

Finally, it was confirmed that there was no objection, and all the villagers signed the contract and pressed their fingerprints to express their agreement.

Holding a thick stack of contracts, Su Mu felt a lot of emotion.He knows that there is no way to twist the villagers into one rope, but since signing this contract, his big plan has officially started!
"I want to say a few words today while all the folks are here." Putting away the contract, Su Mu stood on the stage and said seriously: "In fact, the most important thing that restricts the development of our Huatanao is the road problem. If the road can be After repairing, our mountain goods can be easily transported out, how can we have no money in hand?
Now the current situation in our village is that each family farms enough grain to feed themselves for a year, because no matter how much grain is harvested, it can only be hoarded at home and cannot be sold!No one outside is willing to travel so far and put so much effort into our Huatanao harvesting grain, which has formed a vicious circle.

Let me tell you, the more closed the information is, the less we can keep up with the trend of the times. We have to find ways to communicate with the outside world and use the advanced conditions in the city to create wealth for ourselves.If you want to really get rich, you have to start with road construction!Since I contracted the wasteland in our Aozi, I just want to take root and develop well.

It’s not good to always shout slogans, you have to take action and do what you say.I will fund the repair of the road from Huatanao to Huatan Town. Do you have any opinions? "
