Chapter 319

Su Jin suddenly woke up and dismissed the idea of ??building houses for the tenants.

Let's leave it at that for now. Her husband is right. It is better to teach people how to fish than to give them fish.

"Okay, I'll listen to you!"

Sister Liu's cooking skills are no worse than Sister Mao's, and the home-cooked dishes are delicious.

Perhaps the advantage is that the raw materials are fresh, just simply adding oil and salt can make a very delicious dish.

The next day everyone asked Liu Zhuangtou. Su Jin and Qin Lang saw that the person Jiang Zhou chose was sincere. Still doing it.

The tenants are not allowed to call and shout at will. After the good land is rented to the tenants for planting, everything is left to the tenants, and there is no need to intervene.

Liu Zhuang's head fell to the ground, and he respectfully kowtowed and said yes.

The two of them didn't ask Liu Zhuangtou to lead them, they walked to the fields by themselves, and they basically met the tenants in two days.

The tenants selected by Jiang Zhou looked pretty good. I think it's the same, if those who steal and play tricks are not even qualified to be tenants, who would be willing to rent land to them?

The tenants heard that the main family provides farm tools and cattle, and only 20% of the rent is charged after paying the rent every year. During the green and yellow seasons, they can also borrow food for free, and then pay it back after the autumn harvest. No interest is charged. They all liked to shout, their faces flushed with excitement, and they repeatedly praised Mr. and Mrs. for being a great and good person, Guanyin Bodhisattva.

You must know that every year when the times are green and yellow, many tenants have to tighten their belts to live, and the housewives can’t wait to count the grains of rice into the pot when they cook. Going down, there is a feeling of trembling!

Sorry!

The poor people are also friends with poor people. Who has surplus food and is willing to borrow it?

The food is barely enough to eat, that is, it is barely enough. Even if you borrow it, you can borrow at most three or five catties, ten or so catties, and no one can borrow more.

Mrs. and Mrs. are willing to borrow it, which is already a great favor.

Besides, the old man and his wife also let the cattle and farm implements be used for free.

If you reduce the rent by 10%, you can also collect 100 or 200 catties of rice in a year. Don’t underestimate this 200 catties. With this 200 catties, if you add some wild vegetables and miscellaneous grains, you can be fooled for a year. .

How can the tenants not be happy?

Su Jin saw that there was a large and small reed lake next to the farmhouse, with an area of ??about ten mu. The silt was deposited, the yellow and decayed reeds were scattered everywhere, and the water was only a shallow layer, which looked messy.

Su Jin was quite interested. The water in this pond is living water, and there are small streams that converge from a distance. Downward, the pond water flows to the distance through the ditches between the fields.

How can a farm not have a pond where you can raise fish, fish and plant lotus root?

Back to Zhuangzi, Su Jin called Liu Zhuangtou to inquire, does the pond have an owner?

Hearing Liu Zhuang shook his head and said no, Su Jin was overjoyed and urged him to apply for the land deed to buy it.

Liu Zhuangtou listened to Bi Mang's persuasion: "It's a worthless mud pond, with so many messy reeds growing, and there are springs in the mud pond, and the water is so cold that it is impossible to open good fields to grow crops. Why does the lady have to pay for it?"

Su Jin smiled and said, "Who said I'm going to open up fertile fields and grow crops? I'm going to make fish ponds. You go and buy them first, and then I will tell you what to do!"

Liu Zhuangtou is even more puzzled. He has a good family and often eats fish, but he usually buys fish and shrimp produced in clear rivers and streams. That kind of fish is more tender and delicious. The fish raised in this muddy pond carry a The muddy smell of the stock is not tasty at all.

Seeing that Madam was in high spirits, and that it was clear that she wanted to buy it, she did not persuade any more, and respectfully agreed.

Mrs. ?? is not short of money if you want to come here. Maybe you bought it because you want to go fishing or boating on the lakeside in the summer. City people love freshness, and many ladies like this, he understands.

Liu Zhuangtou wanted to please, and smiled with him: "I heard that the hill behind our Zhuangzi is being sold recently. It is about 200 mu. It is said that the main family only sells it for 200 mu. I wonder if the master and wife should consider it? Including a As for the small fruit forests, there are some peaches, plums, persimmons, loquats, pomegranates, dates, and pears, as well as a few clusters of bamboo forests, with fresh bamboo shoots every year!”

Since Mrs. Madam wants to play, there is a pond, and of course there is a mountain. Although the mountain was originally planted with crops such as soybeans, peanuts, corn, etc., if Mrs. and Mrs. like it, you can also plant all fruit trees.

Seeing Su Jin's eyes lit up with great interest, Liu Zhuangtou knew that he was on the right track, and his smile became more respectful.

"Oh? Is that the large area behind our Zhuangzi?"

"Madam is right, it's really there!"

When Su Jin and Qin Lang went out for a walk, they also visited that area. There is indeed a fruit forest of about five or six acres. There are three or four kinds of fruit trees, and there are two or three clusters of bamboo.

It is said to be a mountain, but the **** is actually very gentle. There are no crops on it now. It seems that it will not be cultivated until spring.

happens to be around his own village, of course it’s good to buy it.

Su Jin looked at Qin Lang, and Qin Lang said, "If that's the case, then buy it. Who is the owner of that piece of land? Why sell it?"

Liu Zhuangtou smiled and said very gossip: "The owner of that land is surnamed Min, and he is a big family in Fancheng. The family has been in trouble recently, so Mr. Min took him back to the outer room of the mansion to fight Mrs. Min in the main room. The eldest young master of the Min family also—cough cough, he made a joke and lost his face. There were also many problems in the business of the Min family. How could Master Min still care about this unpromising dry land? Ah? It's not all sold! Some people say that their family is short of money now, it's selling to plug the hole, maybe even the farm will be sold after a while."

Su Jin and Qin Lang looked at each other and burst out laughing, this is a world where mountains and rivers never turn, and mountains and rivers meet again!

I didn't expect it to be the Min family!

Then you have to buy it! Otherwise, the Min family's land is right behind their own Zhuangzi, which makes me feel uncomfortable when I think about it.

"Buy it! In addition, you keep an eye on the Min family's farm. If the Min family makes a rumor that they want to sell it, buy it quickly. Ask Jiang Zhou about the money."

"Yes," Liu Zhuangtou nodded with a smile, and took the initiative to introduce: "The Min family's farmhouse is only about three miles away from ours, and it takes less than a quarter of an hour to arrive. I heard that there are also three hundred acres of good quality. The fertile land! There is also a large piece of dry land, all kinds of vegetables, soybeans, peanuts, corn, etc. are growing very well, and the land is much fatter than the land behind our Zhuangzi!"
