Chapter 204 Lease
Chapter 203 Land Rent

"Go to the county and have a look. If the land is not bad, buy it." Su Mingzhi said, "By the way, let's see if there are other small plots of land in the village. I am now an official, and Aning is now an official." The village king always wants to repay the village, so I am thinking of buying some land and treating it as family land."

The village chief's eyes widened. He didn't expect that this was what Su Mingzhi said: "Azhi, are you telling the truth? Your family has already bought a lot of family land, do you really want to buy some?"

Su Mingzhi smiled: "Of course, yes, after all, this is my hometown and I can't live without it."

"Okay, since you said it, uncle, I will take care of him for you." The village chief said enthusiastically, and then led Su Mingzhi to the county, "Let's go, Ah Zhi, follow me."

Su Mingzhi waved his hand: "Uncle, it's getting late today. There's no rush to buy land. It's not too late to go tomorrow. Why don't we ask if there is anyone in the village who is willing to rent land? If not, when we go to the county tomorrow, we will also So we can recruit some tenants."

The village chief nodded quickly: "That's the truth, that's the truth. I'm going to find someone right now. Old lady, go call Da Lang and ask him to call a few people."

"Ah, okay, I'll go right away." When the village chief's wife heard the voice, she immediately turned and left to find her eldest son, "Da Lang, Da Lang, where are you? Your father is looking for you. Da Lang..."

"Mom, I'm here, I'm here, what's going on?" A deep voice was heard from far away, coming from far to near.

Su Mingzhi looked over and saw that a man had arrived, "Brother Mingchuan, you're here."

"It's Azhi, why are you here now when you have time? Your land doesn't need to be repaired?" Su Mingchuan, the eldest son of the village chief, asked.

Su Mingzhi said: "Isn't this just to deal with matters in the fields? That's why I came here."

"?" Su Mingchuan was confused.

The village chief interrupted the two of them and said, "Dalang, go and call the villagers and ask them to come over here."

"Call everyone?" Su Mingchuan asked.

The village chief nodded: "Yes, call them all, just one from each family."

"Okay, I understand, Dad, I'll go right away." Su Mingchuan said and went out.

The village chief said to Su Mingzhi: "Don't worry, people will be here shortly."

The village chief's wife took out some more pastries and added a pot of water, "Come on, come on, let's have some more tea to moisten your throat."

Su Mingzhi picked up a piece of snack and ate it slowly.

It doesn't taste particularly good, but it reminds me of my childhood.

Not long after, Su Mingchuan had returned with his people.

Although the village chief is not a big man, he can still stand with so many people standing in the yard.

At this time, people in the courtyard had already started chatting.

"Hey, are you all here? Ah Chuan called us all here?"

"Maybe the village chief has something to say."

"I guess so, but what's going on at this time? Don't everyone have to be busy farming?"

"Stop talking and just wait. When does the village chief make mistakes?"

……

Everyone was making a lot of noise, and someone with seniority reminded everyone not to make any noise.

While everyone was talking, the village chief came out with his people.When everyone saw that the village chief was followed by Su Mingzhi, they suddenly realized that this matter must be related to the Su family.

"Sure enough, old man Su didn't come."

Someone checked the people and found no one from the Su family, except Su Mingzhi behind the village chief.

"It must be related to his family. There is a lot of work in his family's land. I guess they need to recruit people to farm?"

Some people were happy when they heard this, because the family had no land, or there were too many men to eat.

But some people looked annoyed. They had a lot of fertile land at home, and their children were hard-working and had plenty of work to do. After all, they didn't have to worry about food, so there was no point in coming here.

There are also those who have offended the Su family. When they see someone coming from the Su family, they are afraid that it has something to do with them, so they hide behind others and do not dare to say a word.

"Village chief, why did you call us here? If nothing happens, I will go home. There are still a lot of things at home." There was a wealthy member of the family who didn't want to stay any longer and asked directly.

The village chief raised his hand and pressed it down, "Don't make any noise. I called you here today because I have something to talk about. Originally, it would be enough to call several people, but if you only call those few people, I'm afraid there will be some people who are unwilling to give in to me, so I simply call them all. Those who are unwilling can leave after listening, and those who are willing or willing can stay and continue the discussion."

"What's going on?" He asked impatiently.

The village chief looked at Su Mingzhi, who waved his hand and asked the village chief to speak.

The village chief was not polite and said directly: "You also know that Fengzi's family has a lot of fields. Originally, the family's family did not have much, but Azhi felt sorry for his parents and wanted Fengzi and his wife to live more comfortably, so he wanted to With..."

"Are we looking to recruit people?" Someone asked directly, impatiently.

The village chief cleared his throat loudly: "Not really."

"what is that?"

The village chief was interrupted again and glared at the boy, "Don't say anything, just listen to me. Why are you in such a hurry? It will delay things."

When everyone heard this, they immediately became quiet.

Seeing that the situation was under control, the village chief cleared his throat and said, "The Su family plans to rent out the family's fields. If the family has spare money, anyone who wants to rent can keep it."

Everyone was in an uproar when they heard the words.

"What, they actually want to form a team? The Mineko family is really crazy."

"Hey, actually, that's true. Fengzi's body was damaged in his early years. Now that he looks strong, he's just showing off his skills. I don't know what's going on inside."

"Azhi is still filial, but with four men in their family, they should be able to get dozens of acres of land."

Someone glanced at the person who spoke: "Don't think about it. Of the four sons, the youngest son can't do anything. The third son still has to take the imperial examination. The second son and the eldest son are quite capable, especially the eldest son." Lang, but I heard that this big man outside is this..., how can he go to work in the fields? Have you ever seen any official working in the fields by himself?"

When others saw the man giving a thumbs up, they understood what he meant.

Originally there was only one prince, and everyone thought he was here for Suning, the country prince. Now he is here as the prince. He seems to value Su Mingzhi very much. Naturally, they understand that Su Mingzhi's identity may not be as simple as they see.

Someone who was well-informed and well-connected murmured in a low voice: "Let me tell you, the eldest cousin of my third uncle's uncle's seventh aunt's nephew-in-law's wife is in Fengcheng, and he even served as a soldier there. , I heard that I’ve met the Su family’s eldest son, and he’s still an official.”

"so smart?"
