Crossing the old lady of the farm gate

Chapter 361 Talking
"Let it for 20 years first. After 20 years, whether you need to renew the lease or not, we can wait until then to talk about it. I just don't know how much you plan to ask for this price. If it is not suitable, then I might as well just buy it. In 20 years I have to pay you back for all the trouble and effort, think about it, there are still a lot of uneconomical things."

Liu Guitian: "Mrs. Chen, you have already seen how many fields there are in our village. If you want to rent it for 20 years, there is no problem. After all, you have done our village such a favor. You can give us the rent for 20 years. 500 taels will do.”

"what?"

Bai Lan never thought that Liu Guitian would give them such a low price.

"For 500 taels, you can buy a lot of land by selling it, but after generations of people in Xiaohe Village have opened up wasteland, there are quite a lot of land and good farmland, at least several thousand mu."

Chen Yu asked back with some uncertainty: "Cunchang Liu, are you sure you are right, your village has quite a lot of land."

"Sure, you've helped the village so much, but we can't sell the land to you because of the rules of our ancestors. We always feel a little bit sorry. In fact, 500 taels is not a lot. There are not many people in our village. The average After dividing it, each person has 40 taels, if you don’t rent it anymore, the land is still our own, so if you calculate it like this, you still suffer.”

Chen Yu felt that this was fine. If they planned to plant fruit trees in the village, they would definitely need the villagers to build a greenhouse. This could be regarded as a way for the village to make money.

The villagers in the village no longer have to worry about how to make money in the future.

"Village Chief, we also have an unfeeling request. We want to gather all the fields in one place, so that it will be easier to manage. See if you can re-divide the fields with the villagers."

Liu Guitian agreed to this small request, "There is no problem with this, and there is nothing planted in the field. I will re-divide them tomorrow. Each person will keep three acres of land in their hands, and the rest will be rented out to others." you."

Chen Yu: "Village Chief Liu, don't worry, everyone will keep three acres of land in their hands. After I teach you the second season of rice, there will be surplus grain that can be exchanged for money."

Chen Yu remembered what he had promised earlier, that he would teach them how to grow sweet potatoes and potatoes, and now they have contracted all the land.

"Cun Zhang, do you want to leave an acre of sandy land for each family to grow high-yield sweet potatoes and potatoes? This is also a profitable business."

"Master Chen, I've already considered this issue. The three mu of land I'm talking about includes one mu of sandy land and two mu of fertile land. This is enough for an old family."

"That's fine. Since Village Chief Liu has already considered everything, I won't say more. I wonder if we can sign an agreement first."

"The agreement must be signed. It just so happens that several clan elders are here, and they will be a witness by the way."

That night, Bai Lan told Chen Yajiao about their situation today, and asked her to send someone over to start planting the greenhouse.She also asked her to send a person who knows how to grow rice, and they planned to wait for the person to come and leave for the next place.

The next day, before Bai Lan could go to Er Gouzi's house, Er Gouzi's parents brought Er Gouzi to the village chief's house.

When Bai Lan saw Er Gouzi's parents coming, she planned to refuse Er Gouzi to sell herself to him. After all, after they contracted the land, the family could get three or forty taels.

After all, it was a piece of meat that fell from his body, so how could he be willing to part with it.
