Rebirth to 90s: Start from Scratch

Zhang Qianxiu was indeed touched by Yuan Pengchi, but he still had some worries in his heart.

This was not moral at the time, but official.

At that time, if he really does this, will the official punish him? After all, this is to protect his own interests at the expense of the peasants.

Although the reservoir is contracted by himself, this does not mean that he has complete control over the water in the reservoir. The official will definitely require him to take care of the water used in the irrigation area of ​​the reservoir.

It’s okay to say in a small disaster year. In a catastrophe year, other farmers watched eagerly. The paddy fields were cracked. They couldn’t wait for the water after seeing them. However, there was still water in the land they contracted. If you go to the government to make trouble, the government will definitely investigate such things.

Yuan Pengchi didn't know what Zhang Qianxiu was thinking, but Su Yuwei knew Zhang Qianxiu well and knew his worries.

Su Yuwei said: "Qianxiu, if it is really a catastrophe year, it will definitely save some money. If you put all the water down equally, no one will have a harvest. You can donate part of it to the government and let the government use it for disaster relief. And so on, the official people are also easy to talk."

"Moreover, in a catastrophe year, the price of grain will definitely rise. Even if you don't produce grain for this 10,000 mu, it is estimated that you will not lose money."

Su Yuwei's words really reminded Zhang Qianxiu.

If there is a major disaster year, the northern provinces will not be much better, and the price of food will definitely rise. As long as the price of food rises, you will definitely have a profit.

"Look at the reservoir tomorrow." Zhang Qianxiu said.

Su Yuwei reminded: "You have to find a local talent. That reservoir will not be contracted to people outside the region, but only to local people."

Zhang Qianxiu didn't care about this: "It's okay. Chen Defu and Chen Desheng want to do it with me. Otherwise, they wouldn't spend so much effort pushing me to rent this large area."

"I rent these places and I definitely need someone to manage them. The two of them are the most suitable."

Zhang Qianxiu understood the careful thinking of these two people a long time ago, but didn't break it. Before Zhang Qianxiu was not sure whether he would rent or not. As long as he confirmed the rent, he probably didn't need to speak himself. Chen Defu and Chen Desheng would recommend themselves.

Yuan Pengchi said at this time: "Mr. Zhang, in fact, that piece of highland can also be directly placed in that place without levelling it. It doesn't matter if the location is higher."

"The test plot is placed on the side, which is also convenient for management."

Zhang Qianxiu nodded: "Well, I will go to see the reservoir tomorrow. If there are no other problems, we will start to measure the land in these two days and then sign a contract with them."

The contract is more than 10,000 mu, not a few acres of land. The place must be measured clearly, and what it was originally like must be drawn down. If you don’t rent it in the future, you must restore it to the original state or give them money. Let them recover by themselves.

The next day, Zhang Qianxiu went to see the reservoir. Only Su Yuwei, Chen Defu, Chen Desheng, Yuan Pengchi and his students came with him. The reservoir was actually quite large, but it was winter and the water level was relatively low.

Chen Defu introduced to Zhang Qianxiu diligently: "Boss Zhang, this reservoir was originally intended to manage more than a dozen villages. Later, because an additional reservoir was built, this reservoir only needs to manage six villages. The water is definitely sufficient."

Zhang Qianxiu smiled and asked, "If it is a dry year, is it enough?"

Chen Defulu was a little embarrassed: "Boss Zhang, how much work is needed. As long as it is not a drought, it is basically enough. If the entire north is short of water, there is no way!"

Zhang Qianxiu asked: "Mr. Chen, I definitely don't have that much time to guard in the north. I still have one less manpower to manage this reservoir. I heard that foreigners cannot contract for this reservoir, but local talents are needed."

"Do you have a suitable candidate? It's best to be reliable, know a little bit about food business, know a little bit about farming, and know a little bit about management."

"If your local talents are good, otherwise this reservoir will be difficult to contract."

When Chen Defu heard this, he hesitated, then looked at Chen Desheng and said, "Boss Zhang, I have been in charge of production in the village for a long time and contacted the source of goods; Desheng is doing sales in Shanghai."

"I have no choice but to recommend myself. If Boss Zhang doesn't dislike it, Desheng and I are willing to help Boss Zhang manage this piece."

"Moreover, both of us are locals, so there are some things that we can handle."

Zhang Qianxiu deliberately asked: "Mr. Chen, we haven't known each other for a long time. Let me say something unpleasant. You have enough contacts in the local area. How can you guarantee that when you manage me, there will be no problems with the accounts?"

Chen Defu said immediately: "Boss Zhang, I can ignore the finances."

Zhang Qianxiu shook his head: "What about rice? Even if we expand the scale then, these people will certainly convince you more."

Chen Defu thought that Zhang Qianxiu was going to reject himself. There was no way to prove this kind of problem. If he was in charge of this farm, then he basically had the final say. If he really wants to do tricks, there must be a way.

Chen Defu originally had great hopes for this matter. After hearing this, he couldn't help being disappointed: "Boss Zhang, you are a capable person. No matter how good I speak, it is useless. This thing is actually just for watching. Character, I think my personal character is pretty good."

"I managed the cooperative in our village for several years. Although I made some money myself, I made it all by myself. I gave every penny in the village to every household."

"If I help Boss Zhang in the future, I will do the same. For this 6,000 acres of land, I will get as much salary as I am, and I will never get an extra cent."

In the past, Chen Defu made money by relying on scale. As his scale becomes larger, he will have more sales outlets, and he will be able to help some people around him sell food and make money from it.

Most of the money earned was divided between Chen Defu and Chen Desheng, and the other people in the village did not have much opinion. After all, the villagers did not make any effort. Chen Defu and Chen Desheng helped them sell the rice and paid a point. If you don't receive money, you can give them as much as you earn.

Zhang Qianxiu agreed: "Mr. Chen, what you said is correct, and my personal impression of you is also very good."

"I believe in your character, but business belongs to business, and work belongs to work. If you come to help me in the future, then we have to make everything clear, don't you think?"

When Chen Defu heard Zhang Qianxiu's words, hope instantly rose in his heart: "Boss Zhang said that we should talk about the rules first. If there are any problems in the future, someone can take responsibility."

Zhang Qianxiu said: "Mr. Chen, if you don't dislike it, then the 6,000 acres will be handed over to you. Manager Chen Desheng used to be a marketer, but he will still be a marketer in the future, helping me to open up the situation in Shanghai and maintain my existing customer of."

"In the future, a research institute will be established in the village, which will be mainly in charge of Professor Yuan. If it is financial, I will arrange another person to manage it."

Zhang Qianxiu has no manpower to take care of things here, he can only use people he has just met.

When the time comes, the financial manager must also look for it outside. As for the financial reliability, it depends on the character.

Zhang Qianxiu didn't dare to hand over the finances to Chen Defu. If Chen Defu even took care of the finances, it would be almost his word.

Putting Chen Desheng in Shangjing, one is to turn those former customers into his own, and the other is to give Chen Defu and Chen Desheng some room to operate. In other words, temporarily allow them to use resources to make money, such as harvesting their own rice. Selling, as long as it doesn't affect oneself, Zhang Qianxiu has no plans to enter the northern market anyway.

How to make arrangements in the future depends on the situation in the future. If there are no accidents, the grain business will become bigger and bigger in the future, and it will definitely be merged into a group.

Chen Defu also knows Zhang Qianxiu's worries and can understand: "Boss Zhang, rest assured, I will manage it well."

Zhang Qianxiu said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, then do you think that this rent, how much a year is more appropriate?"

Chen Defu suddenly hesitated. Zhang Qianxiu asked him just to ask the reserve price, but Chen Defu was from Chenzhuang and told Zhang Qianxiu that the price was low. From a certain point of view, he naturally betrayed their village.

Chen Defu said embarrassedly: "Boss Zhang, I still don't get involved with this... thing!"

Zhang Qianxiu said: "You said a price that you think is more relevant."

"Boss Zhang!" Chen Defu didn't dare to say high, let alone say low.

"Say a try!" Zhang Qianxiu said.

Seeing that Zhang Qianxiu was not letting go, Chen Defu took a deep breath and said, "You will handle the tax yourself for 200 catties of grain or forty-two yuan per mu."

The price is not expensive, but it is not cheap either.

Renting land mainly depends on the place. In the later paddy fields, all agricultural taxes and even subsidies are exempted. Different places have different prices, but they are basically around 300 to 600.

If a family has a fixed income of 200 catties per acre of land, and a family rents three acres of land to Zhang Qianxiu, there will be 600 catties, which is basically not enough to eat, but just find a job and stutter. It's not difficult, and it's more free, with greater development possibilities, and you don't need to spend the whole year on an acre of land.

Chen Defu felt that Zhang Qianxiu would not agree to this price, after all, the price was not low.

Zhang Qianxiu summed it up in his mind and said, "Then the price, Mr. Chen, and Manager Chen, you two, help me get all these things down, and also rent this reservoir for me."

"Rent or something, you look at it and talk to me, and finally you can confirm with me. I believe that we can cooperate for a long time, and you are worthy of my trust."

Zhang Qianxiu actually didn't really believe in Chen Defu and Chen Desheng, he just didn't believe them here, and no one used them.

Then just try it. Anyway, you have to decide on your own. If you don't agree, they won't get the money, and they won't be able to toss.

Both Chen Defu and Chen Desheng were stunned, but Zhang Qianxiu suddenly became so talkative. Do you really believe them?
