Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 776: Shen Hanxing came to see himShen Li had no idea that trouble was heading his way, at this moment he was sitting behind a table with a bunch of contracts that were written by him and Ye Liu, Yu Dong had been teaching them how to write for a long time and now after months of making mistakes, they were finally able to write and read without any problem at all.         

    

Since Yu Dong had decided that they will be now developing the village, it made no sense in allowing the villagers to farm their usual vegetables. Though the vegetables that the villagers grew were enough to make sure that neither of them starved it was nowhere enough to uplift the lives of the villagers!      

This was why Yu Dong came up with another plan, she was willing to share the strawberries, blueberries and rice stalks with the villagers as long as they signed contracts with her, of course, she was also willing to hand them the farm lands that were not occupied by anyone at the moment such that they can continue to grow their vegetables and rice in their fields while working for her alongside.      

" Here, two contracts are sitting in front of you all," Shen Li spoke calmly and patiently making sure that his voice was neither too overbearing nor servile. Though his voice was as gentle as always, his tone was business like which made it impossible for anyone to take him lightly.     

When the village women who came to sign contracts after getting the information from Aunt Wang who was now working alongside Yu Dong, saw Shen Li acting all prim and proper they could not help but straighten their backs as they all smiled at Shen Li and tried to keep the contempt that was drilled in their bones against working mers as minimum as possible.     

Shen Li knew that the women were looking down at him which was why he was even more determined to do a good job, with his back straight and voice firm, he looked at the line in front of him and then said, " These two contracts are divided into seventy to thirty and fifty fifty shares. In the first contract, our wife will not only provide you with farming land but also seeds that are of high quality, and by high quality I mean to say that as long as you give these seeds enough water and clean the rotten twigs and leaves, they will be able to grow on their own, there are no chances of failure at all. Those who sign the contracts with seventy to thirty per cent only need to sow them and take it easy."      

He paused and gave the village women enough time to discuss among themselves and waited until they stopped discussing before he opened his mouth and once again started to speak, "The second contract has fifty-fifty shares, you will get the farming land just like others but the quality of seeds will not be as good, which means that you will have to pay extra attention to these crops that you will grow, from taking care of adequate sunlight to covering them with shade along with taking care of the rotten leaves, twigs and everything else  including the expense of fertilisers will be borne by you, if the seeds sprout and grow up decently then you will get the same share as us but in case you fail to sprout the seeds and the crops do no bear fruit then you will have to make up for the loss."      

When the villagers heard Shen Li's words they once again started to discuss the matter between themselves. Though the contract with fifty-fifty shares was indeed tempting it came with a fair share of risks as well compared to the seventy to thirty per cent one was better, at least they did not have to bear the risk of making a loss!      

Shen Li looked at the villagers who were discussing the matter and heaved a sigh of relief, he knew that this matter of signing a contract was not as easy as he thought in his head but when he saw that the villagers were willing to listen to him calmly he knew that half of his battle was won which was why he heaved another sigh and then went ahead and said,      

" Of course, if you want to go back and discuss it with your family you can do that as well, as for those who want to sign the contract and have decided which one to sign, please take the contract and go to Liu, he will read the contract out for you and once you have listened to the terms and conditions sign the contract accordingly —— if you doubt us then you can take it back with you and have it read by someone you trust as well but make sure to come back in twenty-four hours or else we will count the contract as nullified and give it to someone else."      


As soon as Shen Li said that, a bunch of women turned to leave such that they can discuss it with the elders of their family while the rest took the contract and went to Ye Liu.      

Shen Li distributed the contract in front of him orderly and when he saw that there was no one left, he collected the extra contracts and went to bring them back inside the house, however, as soon as he walked inside the house, he saw the mer son of his neighbour running inside the house.      

"Brother Li, are you at home?" the boy called loudly and Shen Li who was half inside the house placed the contract nicely on the cabinet inside the house and asked Chen Mi to bring them back to his room before walking out as he replied, " I am here, Chu Zhe, what's wrong?"      

Chu Zhe smiled at Shen Li and then pointed outside the village and said, " My mom asked me to bring you ..,.there is someone waiting for you outside the village, their name… Shen…Shen …Nan… I don't know it's quite difficult to pronounce."      

" Shen Hanxing?" Shen Li helped Chu Zhe, his heart already thumping wildly.
