Chapter 184
There were more customers coming to the strawberry field to pick strawberries in the afternoon than in the morning, and Shen Qiuqiu and the others were a bit later in harvesting.

When I got home, it was almost 06:30.

The packaged parcels have been taken away by the people at the courier station, and the villagers who came to help have gone home.

Li Datou came over early and was busy in the kitchen at this time.

Grandma Shen and Shen Xiu were on the sidelines helping him, "stealing his teacher" by the way.

There is a strong smell of food in the yard.

Grandpa Shen has also returned from the grape field, and is chopping firewood in the yard with an axe.

"Grandpa." Shen Qiuqiu called out from the side.

The old man stopped what he was doing, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and turned to look at her, "What's the matter?"

"Grandpa, let me do it." Jiang Jincheng stepped forward with great insight, took the ax from the old man and continued to chop wood.

Shen Qiuqiu pulled Grandpa Shen aside, and then said: "Grandpa, please call Uncle Hongxi and ask him to come to dinner at home."

"Oh." Grandpa Shen responded, and then asked casually, "Why are you looking for Hongxi?"

Shen Qiuqiu pointed to Li Datou, who was busy in the kitchen, "I plan to open a farmhouse with Uncle Datou, and we need to sign a contract for this matter, so we must invite Uncle Hongxi to be a witness.

Also, I want to rent the wasteland of Qingshuitang. "

Qingshuitang is on a hillside not far from the village, and it got its name because of a pond of clear water.

That piece of land is collectively owned by Qinghe Village, and it is about [-] to [-] mu.

Over the years, the labor force in the village has become less and less, and there are fewer people on the land, so the land has been left uncultivated, and no one cares about it, and no one is going to plant it.

Shen Qiuqiu wanted to contract it to grow passionflowers.

"That piece of land..." Grandpa Shen frowned and pondered for a while.

Rural land is also divided into grades, grades, grades, flat terrain close to the village, water and electricity, and is classified as superior land; land farther away from the village, on hills and slopes, without water and electricity, and not easy to cultivate, is inferior land.

Half of the land in Qingshuitang is on the hillside, which is not considered good; but it has sufficient water sources and is not far from the village, so it is not considered inferior.

This kind of land can't go up or down, but the price won't be cheap either.

Grandpa Shen couldn't help persuading, "The land is nearly [-] acres, the rent is definitely not cheap, why don't we look at other places?
The land of Zhou Yonghong's family next door doesn't seem to be rented out either. His land is not far from our grape field. It has about seven or eight mu, which is enough for you to grow passionflower. "

Shen Qiuqiu doesn't really want to rent land from private individuals, not to mention the short lease period, and it's easy to argue; in comparison, it's more reliable to deal with the public.

"Forget about the land of Uncle Zhou's family. I heard that his family only rents it for three years and cannot rent it for a long time. In the long run, it is more cost-effective for us to rent the land in the village;

According to the policy, slope land can be rented for 50 years. Even if we don’t grow passionflower in the future, we can plan it and use it to grow other things, and we will definitely be able to earn back the land rent. "

"Okay, I'll ask Hongxi during dinner later." Grandpa Shen was finally persuaded by his granddaughter.

It was time for dinner at this time, Lin Hongxi's family must already be having dinner, if they called to invite them, they might not come.

Grandpa Shen didn't bother, he went directly to his house and dragged him away from the dinner table.

Before dinner, Shen Qiuqiu printed out the previously drawn up contract in triplicate.

One for Lin Hongxi and one for Li Datou.

"Uncle Datou, this is the contract I drew up. Take a look. If there are no problems, let's sign the contract."

Then he turned to Lin Hongxi and said, "Uncle Hongxi, Uncle Datou and I are going to hold a farmhouse in the village, please be a witness."

Lin Hongxi was a little surprised, then smiled and said, "Okay, this is a good thing."

Li Datou had no education and little literacy, so Shen Qiuqiu patiently read the terms of the contract to him.

Li Datou had no objection to the first few items, but when he read the seventh item, he suddenly interrupted Shen Qiuqiu.

"Xiaohua, what does this mean? Didn't we agree that we will split the bill fifty-fifty?"

Shen Qiuqiu put down the contract and explained, "Uncle Datou, I just said that casually at the time, I came back and thought about it, and I can't split the bill fifty-fifty, then you will suffer too much.

The business site is yours, so I only paid for the decoration; you also have to be responsible for the later operation. To put it bluntly, I'm just a shopkeeper.

So, let's still split the bill between three and seven, I get three, you get seven, and the extra [-]% is your wages. "

Li Datou did not agree, "It can't be calculated like this. Without you, this farmhouse would not be able to open at all. It's too little for you to get [-]%, or just four or six."

Shen Qiuqiu shook his head and laughed, and once again lamented Li Datou's simplicity.

In fact, she was a little embarrassed to take [-]%.

After careful calculation, the initial investment of the farmhouse is not more than [-] yuan, and the later operation depends entirely on Li Datou, and there is no need for additional investment. She only needs to wait for the dividends. It is simply a once-and-for-all investment project.

In the end, under Shen Qiuqiu's insistence, the proportion of the bill was still [-].

Witnessed by Lin Hongxi, Shen Qiuqiu and Li Datou signed the contract with their fingerprints.

Lin Hongxi also signed her name in the column of witnesses.

The contract comes into force.

Seeing that they had finally settled the matter, Grandma Shen greeted them for dinner.

The dinner was placed in the main room, and the table was full of dishes.

Braised pork with preserved vegetables, stir-fried pork, garlic pork ribs, fatty sausage with pickled peppers, stir-fried kidneys, tofu mixed with Chinese toon, big bone corn soup, pickled fish, tiger skin green pepper...these are some common farm dishes, which look very appetizing , the presentation is also very delicate.

Even Lin Hongxi was already half full at home, and seeing such a table of sumptuous food, she couldn't help swallowing.

"Ma'am, your cooking skills are getting better and better."

Grandma Shen waved her hand and said with a smile: "Hey, this is not my handicraft. Today's dishes are all made of big heads, which are much more delicious than mine. Come and try."

To entertain guests today, Grandpa Shen specially brought out a bottle of white wine.

Now the granddaughter is in charge, and he is not allowed to drink too much, and only on such occasions can he have a few drinks.

The old man poured a glass for Lin Hongxi, another glass for Li Datou, and another glass for himself, and then he was about to put the lid on the wine bottle.

Lin Hongxi stopped him with a smile, and pointed to Jiang Jincheng who was sitting beside him, "Uncle, pour a glass for Xiao Hua's partner as well."

Jiang Jincheng smiled and said nothing.

Instead, Grandpa Shen said, "He's going to drive back later, so he won't be allowed to drink."

"What are you going to do when you go back? Anyway, Xiaoshu is not at home, so let him sleep in Xiaoshu's room." Lin Hongxi stood up, took the wine bottle in Grandpa Shen's hand, poured a glass of wine and handed it to Jiang Jincheng involuntarily.
