Happy Shennong

Chapter 358
The price of [-] mu is too expensive to buy.It’s about the same if you buy it for real estate, but if you use it to grow vegetables, the cost is too high.What's more, it's not a purchase, it's just a lease.

The annual rent for the land that Linley rented in Yangliu Village was only around 2 per mu. Ten mu of land can be rented for [-] yuan, not to mention only one mu of land can be rented here.In a word, there is no limit to the loss!

After hearing Lin Lei's analysis, Su Bowen said helplessly: "I also think it's expensive, but there's no way around it. If you sign the agreement, you'll have to pay the rent long ago, and it's irreversible. But... the ten-year lease is coming to an end at the end of the year." When it’s time to renew the lease, maybe you can bargain down the price.”

"Oh? It's about to expire, that's just right!" Linley's eyes lit up, "The rent must be kept down, otherwise, the cost of the company will be too high."

"I hope you have contacts in the Land and Resources Bureau, otherwise, there is a possibility of lowering the price, but it is very difficult."

lei nodded.As for the Land and Resources Bureau in Qingyang, he really has no contacts for the time being.He has only been here for a few months, and he has never dealt with the relevant departments.However, he believed that something that was unreasonable could always make sense.

Really, he still has some contacts in the city...

It was past six o'clock when they returned to the company.Anyway, I'm fine right now, so I went to Zhou Chunfa's house.When he got downstairs, Linley heard someone arguing at the landlord's house.He asked Xiong Da to take Su Bowen and Su Yanran upstairs first, and he was going to ask what was going on.

Linley knew that the landlord, Liu Jianming, was disabled and had problems with both legs, so he had to rely on a wheelchair to travel.Although he has encountered misfortune, he has a very optimistic personality, and he usually smiles when he sees him.

Liu Jianming's wife, Pang Cuilan, also seems to be a very kind person.

Families like this generally don't quarrel over trivial matters.Since they quarreled, something bigger should have happened.The couple were the landlords of Zhou Chunfa and Wang Sixi, and Linley got to know them better because he came here often.If people have a conflict, they should ask about it.

Before Linley entered the house, Pang Cuilan rushed out.

"Linley? Come to see your fellow countryman." Pang Cuilan secretly wiped away her tears, smiled, greeted Linley, and was about to leave.

"Yes. Sister Pang Da, did you quarrel with Brother Liu?" Linley nodded and asked, "Did something happen at home?"

"Hey, every family has a difficult scripture to recite! He is like that, and I usually accommodate him. But he is too stubborn, and sometimes I can't bear it. Take just now, he...cough , or not to say, for fear of affecting your mood."

"It's okay, Miss Pang, come and listen to me."

Seeing that Linley wasn't joking, Pang Cuilan nodded, "Well, it's actually like this. His old injury has recurred and he needs to go to the hospital for reexamination. According to past experience, every time he goes to the hospital, it costs him at least 8000 yuan. But the family really couldn’t afford any money, so I thought, let’s borrow some money from his brother. His brother is doing business outside, and his family is relatively well-off. Brother borrow money."

"Hiss..." Linley was taken aback, "Why? Since we are brothers, we should help each other. It's normal to borrow money from brothers."

"Who says no? It's because his mind is too small. His brother made a slip of the tongue once after drinking, saying that he was a useless person. Just such a sentence, he remembered it in his heart. Since then, he hasn't even seen his brother. gone."

At this moment, Liu Jianming pushed the wheelchair to the door, opened the curtain with his hands, and said to Pang Cuilan, "What do you know? It doesn't matter if others say I'm useless. But he is my brother, and he is also my brother." Then talk about me, and look down on me! Anyway, if I leave the words here, I will die and I will not borrow money from him!"

"Hmph!" Pang Cuilan turned her head and looked aside.

Liu Jianming also suppressed his anger, and said to Linley with a smile, "Little brother, I made you laugh. Come, come in and sit for a while?"

Linley nodded: "Brother Liu, I thought you were wrong, but after hearing the reason, I still admire you, because you are a man of integrity."

"You also think I'm doing the right thing? Let me just say, there are still people who understand me. Unlike their women, who don't understand our men's mind..."

Linley smiled faintly, he was telling the truth.Generally, people who have suffered from accidents and become disabled will not only complain about others, but also become very weird, irritable, and angry at every turn, especially with their family members.But Liu Jianming's mentality is very optimistic. He has never complained about anything, and he will smile sincerely when he meets people.

Also, when a disabled person relapses from an old injury, there must be pain, but from Liu Jianming's face, there is no trace of pain.He would rather endure suffering than bow to those who look down on him.It shows that he is not only strong-willed, but also has a lot of backbone.

After analyzing these, Linley decided to help out: "Brother Liu, besides your brother, would you like to borrow money from other people?"

"Divide up. What I need now is help, not handouts."

Linley nodded, took out his wallet and looked at it, and found that there were only about five or six thousand in cash, so he shouted upstairs, "Xiong Da, do you have any money?"

Xiong Da poked his head and asked, "How much?"

"Three thousand."

"Hold on."

In less than 3 minutes, Xiong Da came down and handed 3000 yuan to Linley.

Linley also took out his own money, counted 8000 yuan, handed it to Liu Jianming, and said with a smile, "Brother Liu, can you borrow my money?"

"Uh..." Liu Jianming was taken aback, "Little brother, you and I are not relatives, and you are willing to help me? I, Liu, understand your kindness. But I can't ask for this money. You rent it I bought my house and paid so much rent in advance, I already owe you favors, how can I borrow you more money?"

"That's how it is. It's not a loan. The money is my rent in advance. I know that sometimes a penny can be difficult for a hero. I don't need the money right now. Let me pay back the money. Anyway. I still have to pay the rent in the future. If I pay it in advance, I will be able to worry less about one thing. And this little money can also help you solve your urgent needs. Brother Liu, I admire your will and backbone. However, your body is The most important thing. Listen to my advice and go to the hospital for a review first. I will talk about the rest later."

Liu Jianming stared at Linley for a long time, as if he was engaged in an ideological struggle.

In the end, he nodded: "Okay! Little brother, I, Liu, have written down this favor! Come, come, come in and sit in the room..."

Liu Jianming lifted the curtain, greeted Lin Lei and Xiong Da to enter the house, and handed the money to Pang Cuilan: "Look, without him, I still can't die!"

"You can be ashamed. If it wasn't for Linley's help, it's up to you!" Pang Cuilan took the money, put it in the back room, and quickly went to the living room to pour tea for Linley and the others.

Liu Jianming gave Linley a cigarette, passed it to Xiong Dayi, and said with a smile, "If I'm not mistaken...are you from the army?"

"That's right, I have been a soldier for several years." Xiong Da nodded and said, "Brother Liu, you are really accurate."

"Just now when I saw your standing posture, I realized it. Now I look at your sitting posture again, and I am sure. Because of that feeling, it is too familiar and too deep. When I see you, I think The glorious years of that year..."

"Why, brother Liu, have you ever been a soldier?"

Liu Jianming nodded: "I have been an infantry soldier for six years."

"No wonder!"

When Linley heard this, he frowned and said, "Brother Liu, your injury..."

"As you think, I became like this during my military service." Liu Jianming also lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and said slowly, "That was my last year in the army. I can be promoted. But in the process of rescue and relief, I was injured. Although I was permanently disabled, I saved a child at the moment of my injury. This is why I don’t feel regretful at all. One thing I am very proud of, the injury I suffered was worth it!"

Linley was so in awe of Liu Jianming that he didn't know what to say for a while.

Xiong Da looked at Liu Jianming with respect.During his service, he also participated in emergency rescue and disaster relief, and some comrades were injured or even sacrificed.His wounded comrades-in-arms also expressed that they did not regret joining the army, nor did they regret participating in rescue and disaster relief...

Through further communication, Linley learned that after Liu Jianming was demobilized, he spent all his money to repair this house and planned to leave it to his son.But his son bought a house in Qingyun with a loan. Now his son is under great pressure. He has to pay off the mortgage and save money to get married, so he cannot take care of the family.

Liu Jianming and Pang Cuilan also knew their son's difficulties, and never asked him for money.The family relies on the rent and Pang Cuilan's salary from working in the supermarket to make ends meet.Most of the money was spent on hospitals.The life of the two of them was very difficult.

After learning about Liu Jianming's family situation, Lin Lei realized that not all chartered women lived a prosperous life.

After talking about Liu Jianming's family, Pang Cuilan asked angrily, "Linley, it seems that all of your fellow villagers work in Qingyun Company, so you should too?"

"Yes." Linley nodded.

"I heard that the company has changed its boss. It seems to be called Ma Kui? He also came from Yangliu Village. You should know each other?"

"I know you. I'm very familiar with you. Sister Pang, you know a lot." Linley smiled.I thought to myself that I had achieved my goal of hiding from leisure.People outside now think that Ma Kui is the new boss of Qingyun Company, and will not mention him.

Pang Cuilan waved her hand: "I used to work at Qingyun Company, but I resigned later. The strange thing is, today I received a call from President Su..."

At this moment, Su Bowen's voice came from outside the door: "Linley, are you still here?"

"President Su?" Before Linley could answer, Pang Cuilan stood up abruptly and hurried out.The moment they saw Su Bowen, both of them froze for a moment.

Su Bowen ran into the house excitedly, leaned into Linley's ear and whispered, "What a coincidence, Miss Pang Da was the person in charge of the company's breeding farm before!"
