The Little Days of the Great Landlord

Chapter 26 Contracting
(Dividing into chapters is really troublesome, let’s read it as two chapters, anyway, the number of words is in charge...)
"If you talk nonsense again, get out of here..." Zheng Dabao glared at the booing villager, then cleared his throat, "I won't say more, what's the situation of Straw Hat Mountain and Huagu Mountain, everyone here It is all clear that the contract fee of more than 7 yuan a year is definitely not worth it... If anyone thinks it is worth it, well, you can pay 7 yuan to cover these two mountains, and the village will not treat you badly , What policy do you want, as long as it does not violate national policies and regulations, the village will definitely satisfy you." Zheng Dabao's last sentence directly silenced the Wang family who wanted to refute.

"What the party secretary said makes sense..." Wang Quangen could only agree with Zheng Dabao at this time.

"Straw hat mountain and Huagu mountain have a total of [-] mu, but the utilization rate is relatively low. Let's calculate it according to the contract fee of [-] yuan per mu per year... What does Village Chief Wang think?" Zheng Dabao said, looking at it Wang Quangen.

"Is this a little low? It's only [-] a year, and we don't have enough roads?" Wang Quangen said.

"It doesn't matter, isn't the contract period 20 years? Whoever wants to contract, just pay the 20-year contract fee at one time, which is 10. If you want to contract for a longer period, then extend the period, 50 Years, 70 years, it's all right, as long as you can pay the contract fee in one go..." Zheng Dabao said.

"Well, what Zheng Zhishu said is also reasonable, but the village did not give a 70-year contract period..." Wang Quangen said.

"It's okay. I said 70 years, that's 70 years. If the township leaders are not satisfied, let them come to me." Although the mountains in Zhengjia Village are not big, they are the remaining veins of the Taihang Mountains. They belong to the country. If you want to contract, you have to do the contract in the province. Let alone a township leader, even the county leader has no such power. The township leader gave the contracting right to the village. If he violated the regulations, then he took the opportunity to impose some conditions, and he didn't worry about the hometown leader's disapproval.

"Who will contract Straw Hat Mountain and Huagu Mountain?" Zheng Dabao looked at Yang Ming.

"I've got it, 70 years, 35." Yang Ming raised his hand.

"Is there any higher price?" Zheng Dabao glanced around the room again.

35?
If you can afford this price!Whoever is still nesting in the corner of the hill has already moved to live in the county town.

After waiting for a long time, no one surnamed Wang dared to make an offer. The key point was that they were afraid of Yang Ming. If Yang Ming didn't want it all at once, how much would it cost?Can everyone still play tricks like Wang Dafang?If another dishonest person comes out, then Lao Zheng's family will be unambiguous, and they will definitely fight directly.

"Okay, Straw Hat Mountain and Huagu Mountain will belong to Yang Ming in the next 70 years..." Zheng Dabao looked at Yang Ming with a smile on his face, "Yang Ming, remember to bring the money to the brigade to sign the contract tomorrow."

"I don't bring that much cash. All my money is in the bank card. I have to go to the county seat to get it." Yang Ming said.

"Go to the county seat? Okay, village head Wang and I will also go to the county seat tomorrow to contact the road construction. The three of us will go to the county seat together." Zheng Dabao said.

"Okay, I happen to have a car there." Yang Ming nodded.

Next is Longhu Mountain and Flea Mountain. These two mountains are indeed good mountains. The soil is fertile and soft. They are all rotten and fermented dead branches and leaves. Everything can grow well. Longhu Mountain has 150 acres, and Flea Mountain has 1000 acres. People from the Zheng family and the Wang family all contended. In the end, Longhu Mountain was won by Zheng Laoshi, a member of the Zheng family, at 600 yuan per year, and Flea Mountain was won by Wang Duo at [-] yuan per year. .

At around 10 o'clock in the evening, the somewhat comic auction organized by the village committee finally came to an end, and Yang Ming and Mrs. Liu left the village committee together.

"Hehe... tonight is really interesting, Wang Quangen and Wang Dafang, you can be regarded as embarrassing..." On the way back, Mrs. Liu was as excited as a lark, chirping non-stop, and From time to time, there was a burst of giggles.

"They must have watched too much TV. They thought they would be able to bid for the highest price by holding an auction. They're trying to trick me! Can anyone hold an auction? If this thing doesn't work out, it's easy It will trick me..." Yang Ming shook his head and laughed.

"Their surnames are Wang, they are full of bad things. You offended them badly today, so you have to be careful in the future." Aunt Liu said.

"I saw it. When Wang Dafang was about to leave the house, he gave me a hard look! I have to find a way to subdue him." Yang Ming said.

As the two talked, they had arrived at Yang Ming's house. On the window, black and white shadows alternated. It must be that Wei Qingqing and the others were still watching TV.

The two pushed the door open and went straight into the back room. Sure enough, Wei Qingqing and Zheng Baoer were sitting on the top of the kang, eating big peaches while watching TV happily. holding two peaches.

"You're free..." Yang Ming picked up a peach and took a bite, then gave the other to Aunt Liu, and then sat on the edge of the kang by himself.

"Well, what's the matter?" Wei Qingqing said, and sat down in the kang, making room for Mrs. Liu.

"It's nothing, it's just the contracting of the mountain..." Yang Ming simply told Wei Qingqing what happened tonight.

"It's so stupid! This Village Chief Wang and that man named Wang Dafang must have lost their IQs..." Wei Qingqing shook her head and sighed.

"What's cleared? They almost got a negative number. How much is two acres of land worth? They're sure that we have to rent two mountains for the two acres of land..." Yang Ming shook his head sighing, "If it costs too much, I'd rather leave that piece of land unused, and it's impossible for me to be fooled by that."

Wei Qingqing grew up in a big city, so she didn't know how much farmers valued the land. Sometimes, two neighboring lands could fight with each other because of the same field ridge. Yang Ming Although he grew up in the countryside, his parents always wanted him to settle in the city, so they didn't tell him anything about the fields, and besides, field disputes didn't happen often.

"In other words, the other four hills are all good mountains, but the two hills that you have contracted are relatively barren... What are you going to plant on them?" In Aunt Liu's impression, Yang Ming's family is definitely not short of money. It's normal for Tian Di not to care too much, he just came to play in this poor valley.

"Why do we have to grow something? Can't we do farming on it? Isn't it good to raise pigs, dogs, chickens, ducks, geese, pigeons, etc. on the mountain?" Yang Ming said.

"That's right, you don't have to worry about running out of water for raising ducks and geese. In the Straw Hat Mountain, there is a big water bubble, which comes from a mountain spring." Aunt Liu nodded and said.

"Sister-in-law Liu has contracted the Huochunzi Mountain, what do you plan to plant?" Yang Ming asked.

"There's nothing good to grow, just plant some medicinal materials. In the past, the village came to collect goji berries, which cost several yuan a catty." Aunt Liu said.

"Sister-in-law Liu, what do you think of the peaches you ate?" Yang Ming asked.

Mrs. Liu is a smart person. She was taken aback when she heard the words, but her heart jumped up and she said, "It's delicious..."

"Let me tell you this, this peach was cultivated by a buddy of mine from the Agricultural Society. It was bred in space. The fruit it bears is delicious. If you want to grow it, take the peach pit back and plant it in the On the mountain, it will germinate next year, and then it will take a year to grow into a big tree, and it will bear fruit in the third year. Of course, if you can freeze the peach core, it will germinate this year, and it will be able to hang a tree next year. It's late." Yang Ming said.

Peach and apricot seeds and other hard-shelled seeds are planted in the north. They are all planted this year and will germinate next year. It will take a winter to let the cold crack the hard shell, or it will take a little longer. Microorganisms in the soil rot the crust.

"You mean..." Mrs. Liu's heart was beating wildly, and her voice was trembling. This kind of big peaches are big in size, bright in color and good in taste. If they can be grown, they will definitely be sold in the future.

"That's right, I can authorize you to plant them, but without my authorization, you can't sell peach trees to others..." Yang Ming nodded and said.

"This... I sold the peaches, so I can't pick out the peach pits, can I?"

"That's not necessary. I mean, this year and next two years, this kind of peach tree cannot appear in the orchard of any third family except you and me." In fact, Yang Ming was just looking for a gimmick. It would be great if all the fruit growers could grow this kind of peach trees. In this way, he would not attract attention if he got some bigger fruits.

"No, there are three peaches and four apricots. Isn't it three years before a peach bears fruit?" Mrs. Liu suddenly thought of something else.

"Breeding in space, it must be an excellent variety. How can it be compared with ordinary peach trees? Aren't there many excellent varieties that bear fruit within a year or two?" Yang Ming said.

"Then what do you want me to do for you?" Mrs. Liu always felt that it was impossible for Yang Ming to help herself like this for no reason.

"You have to pay me back the contracting fees I paid you. It's more than 2 yuan, which is not too little..." Yang Ming said.

"Okay..." Mrs. Liu nodded, and pulled her daughter, "It's not early today, let's discuss something tomorrow, so I won't disturb you two to rest." Pulling her daughter off the kang, the mother and wife left up.

Yang Ming and Wei Qingqing hurriedly sent them out, all the way to the gate.

The couple did not return to the house until the figures of sister-in-law Liu's mother and daughter entered the courtyard.

Wei Qingqing climbed onto the top of the kang, put her legs crossed, and squinted at Yang Ming with provocative eyes, imitating Aunt Liu's tone, and said, "Hmph, what do you want me to do for you?"

"What to do?" Yang Ming raised his eyebrows, and with a smile on his face, he changed into loose pajamas and a pair of slippers, "I'll plant the tree of life and the tree of the world first, and I'll tell you what I want you to do when I come back." ..." As he spoke, he walked to the front yard. He had already planned to plant both the tree of life and the tree of the world on the persimmon tree in the yard. However, there were too many people in the family before It's inconvenient, and I won't have a chance until tonight.

"Plant the tree of life and the tree of the world? I want to see it too..." Wei Qingqing quickly put on her shoes and got off the kang, and followed them out.

The light in the courtyard is a 100-degree incandescent lamp, which is dazzling and brightly illuminates the courtyard. Many mosquitoes circle around the light bulb.

Yang Ming stood under the persimmon tree, and at some point there were two green light clusters in his hands, one light green and one dark green, exuding soft light. The green ones are naturally the tree species of life.

Wei Qingqing stood behind Yang Ming, holding her breath.

Yang Ming's hands slowly stuck to the tree. As soon as the two balls of light touched the tree, they immediately got in and quickly spread to the whole tree. In an instant, the whole persimmon tree, no matter the trunk or the branches, Forks, green leaves, and fruits are all wrapped in a mass of green. The green light seems to explode the tree, and there is a feeling that it will overflow at any time. This means that the tree of life and the tree of the world are carrying out the persimmon tree. remodel.

"puff!"

There was a sound like a burst of bubbles, and a little green light, like fireflies, was squeezed out from the branches and leaves of the persimmon tree, and quickly disappeared into the air. The persimmon tree instantly returned to its original state. The persimmon tree has been remodeled to remove excess energy.

A fresh and natural breath emanated from the tree and spread rapidly.

"The air has become better..." Wei Qingqing said.

"Of course it's getting better. Before reaching maturity, the tree of life is used to purify the environment. It can produce negative oxygen ions, which are good for people's health." Yang Ming said.

The two of them looked at the persimmon tree in the yard for a while, and felt that there was no further change. The mosquitoes began to look for blood on them, so they scratched their bruised arms and went back to the house. They lit a mosquito coil and turned off the lights. sleep.

In other words, this mosquito-repellent incense was brought from Mrs. Liu's home. There are many mosquitoes in the mountains, and they can kill people. Instead, it is made of a plant called mugwort, which is dried and ground into powder. It is particularly effective in repelling mosquitoes, and it is also non-toxic and harmless to the human body.

Since the lunch was cooked in a big pot, the kang was extremely hot. One of them slept at the head of the kang and the other at the end of the kang, so that it would be cooler. After talking for a while, they fell asleep.

The room was extremely dark, with only a small red dot flickering eeriely. The small mountain village was completely silent. If anyone suffered from insomnia, they would definitely be able to sleep well in this environment.

"what……"

Suddenly, a scream sounded in the room, and Yang Ming panicked. Yang Ming suddenly turned on the lamp: "What's wrong?"

"Mouse, mouse..." Wei Qingqing screamed, her face was full of horror, her body was leaning against the wall tightly, trembling with fright, her two little white feet stomped on the kang, The kang was almost collapsed. With trembling little hands, she pointed at the place where she had just slept. On Wei Qingqing's pajamas, there were still a few mouse footprints. Obviously, the mice crawled over her body and left behind. Mark of.

Yang Ming followed Wei Qingqing's fingers and saw a fat gray mouse lying on the place where Wei Qingqing was sleeping, looking forward and backward, not afraid of people at all.

Yang Ming looked at Wei Qingqing's frightened look, he was really angry from the heart, and the evil grew to his guts. He rushed over and grabbed the mouse's neck, and squeezed hard, before the mouse had time to struggle. In some cases, he pinched its neck, got out of bed and threw it into the courtyard, washed his hands in the outer room, and then went back to the inner room.

Back in the back room, I saw Wei Qingqing squatting in the corner, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Okay, okay, I crushed that mouse to death." Yang Ming climbed onto the kang, comforting the terrified Wei Qingqing.

"Woo...it crawled on me..." Wei Qingqing leaned into Yang Ming's arms and began to cry, she took off her pajamas as she cried, there were mouse footprints on it, and she felt uncomfortable wearing it.

"Don't cry, don't cry, let's go buy a cat tomorrow. If there is a cat on the kang, we won't be afraid of mice..." Yang Ming hugged Wei Qingqing and patted her back. Yes, it was obvious that Wei Qingqing was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat.

When Wei Qingqing calmed down, she turned on the light to sleep. This time, Wei Qingqing refused to leave Yang Ming, and slipped naked into his arms, insisting on sleeping on his arm.

Yang Ming has no choice but to keep the hot spots hot...
