Windy: The leisurely life of the village owner

Chapter 23 Thoughts (Part [-])

Seeing Uncle Cang's anxious expression after hearing this, Xie Linfeng quickly continued to explain:
"I want to take back the orchard, mainly to expand the scope of the orchard!"

"In the past, the orchard only occupied one-third of the land rented by my family!"

"Most of the remaining land is probably deserted. After all, it's too close to the mountains and forests!"

"So, I plan to develop all those lands and plant some edible seasonal fruits."

"Don't worry, the orchard will still be handed over to Uncle Cangcang, but the proportion of the share will not be as high as before."

"At that time, in addition to giving you a fixed salary, I will also reward you with some dividends."

"In this way, the risk is left to me, and you will have a stable income, how about it?"

To be honest, Xie Linfeng chose this arrangement after considering all aspects.

Uncle Cang has indeed made a lot of money in the past few years of managing the orchard, but it is very unstable.

Anyone who lives in rural areas knows that there is a big difference in status between producers and sellers.

The crops grown by farmers are sold at very low prices.

Under normal circumstances, the profit that growers can obtain is only a small part.

Most of the profits are earned by the sellers, so the "victims" can only be ordinary consumers.

As for Uncle Cang, he did make some money managing the orchard.

However, this is based on normal and smooth conditions.

Just like last year, the weather was unusual and the orchard's irrigation system was too old.

Uncle Cang's family doesn't have enough money to build a new irrigation system.

Therefore, the old couple was so tired last year that they had to manually carry water up the mountain every day.

This is no joke, the orchard area now reaches over [-] acres.

In order not to spend too much money, the old couple almost ended up in the hospital.

Xie Zhiyao told Xie Linfeng about these situations later, otherwise he wouldn't know about it.

Therefore, in order not to let the old couple continue to take risks, but also to consider some of their own plans.

Xie Linfeng finally decided to take back the ownership of the orchard and pay wages and dividends to Uncle Cang instead.

As if he was afraid that Uncle Cang would be reluctant to part with him, Xie Linfeng added:

"As for the salary I'll give you, don't worry, there's nothing wrong with it. A hundred thousand a year will be fine."

"This is just the salary. If the development goes smoothly, the annual dividends should not be much lower than the salary!"

Hearing Xie Linfeng's last words, the old couple's last worries were truly dispelled.

To be honest, they have managed the orchard for the past few years, although every time they sell it, it seems to cost a lot of money.

However, excluding the cost and the share that needs to be paid to Xie Linfeng, the maximum amount is only 10,000+ per year.

This is based on the fact that the orchard has a good harvest. Under circumstances like last year, not even [-] was earned.

Therefore, after hearing Xie Linfeng talk about it, the salary of just the two of them will be 10,000+ in the future.

The old couple finally made up their minds and decided to agree.

As for what Xie Linfeng said about dividends, the old couple never considered whether it was reliable or not.

To be honest, they are not greedy at all, as long as they can maintain their previous income.

Later, Xie Linfeng had a casual chat with the old couple.

After agreeing to let them go to the villa for a detailed discussion tomorrow, Xie Linfeng and Xie Zhiyao put down their gifts and left!
After that, the two visited Aunt Agui, Aunt Baoping and others one after another.Aunt Agui is known as the know-it-all in Yunmiao Village. She is the first to know about everything in the village.

Of course, she is also the leader of the village's "gossip group". Once she knows any gossip in the village,
Haha, within an hour, I'm afraid the whole village will know about it.

Therefore, Aunt Agui was designated by everyone as the person who should not be messed with in the village.

This has become the consensus of everyone in the village, and Xie Linfeng and Xie Zhiyao are no exception.

Xie Linfeng's main purpose of visiting Aunt Agui this time was to let her spread the news about the reopening of the villa.

Moreover, Xie Linfeng also pretended to mention that some people would be recruited in the back of the villa.

To be honest, if the villa is to be developed according to Xie Linfeng's inner thoughts, manpower is naturally indispensable.

However, Xie Linfeng had not returned for many years and was not familiar with some young people in the village at all.

Therefore, he deliberately revealed the matter to Aunt Agui just to let her help spread the word.

By then, Xie Linfeng would no longer need to take action on the recruitment issue, and villagers would naturally come to the villa to inquire.

Xie Zhiyao quickly understood Xie Linfeng's "moves".

After the two of them left Aunt Agui's house, Xie Zhiyao couldn't help but smile at Xie Linfeng:
"You guys are so capable, you actually thought of letting Aunt Agui be your mouthpiece!"

"Now, regarding the recruitment of people in the villa, you will feel a lot more relaxed. You are indeed the smartest person in Yunmiao Village!"

Hearing this, Xie Linfeng nodded noncommittally and chuckled:
"I am the smartest person in Yunmiao, what about you?"

"Who are you, the second smartest person in Yunmiao? Hello, second brother!"

"Fuck you!" Xie Zhiyao heard Xie Linfeng's joke and quickly laughed and cursed:

"You are the second child, I am obviously the number one village grass in Yunmiao!"

"Just you?" Hearing this, Xie Linfeng turned away with some contempt.

Seeing Xie Linfeng's somewhat contemptuous eyes, Xie Zhiyao suddenly remembered that Xie Linfeng's appearance seemed to be not inferior to him.

Moreover, in terms of temperament, Xie Linfeng is stronger than him. Overall, it seems that Xie Linfeng is more handsome.

As a result, Xie Zhiyao suddenly became depressed and couldn't help but lose his energy.

When Xie Linfeng saw this, instead of being comforted, he continued to tease:

"You, I think you should be the number one funny person in Yunmiao!"

"Look at you now, you look like an eggplant beaten by frost!"

"Fuck you, I don't want to talk to you!" Hearing this, Xie Zhiyao cursed a few words in a dull tone.

While talking, the two visited some other familiar villagers in turn.

The second to last visitor was Xie Heshun, the village carving master, also known as Uncle Heshun.

Speaking of which, Xie Heshun was also Xie Linfeng’s first teacher in sculpture.

Therefore, when Xie Linfeng met Xie Heshun, he always called him master!
Although he had never officially become a disciple, in Xie Heshun's eyes, Xie Linfeng was his disciple.

Moreover, he is not just an ordinary disciple, but Xie Linfeng is also Xie Heshun's first disciple, the first disciple to open the door!

Xie Heshun seemed very happy for Xie Linfeng and Xie Zhiyao's sudden visit.

After all, the two most promising young people in the village came to visit together, and one of them was his disciple.

Therefore, Xie Heshun looked particularly happy when he saw the two of them.
