Now there is no poll tax, there is an agricultural tax, but the price of seeds, fertilizers, and even pesticides and diesel has increased.

Even the peasants could not afford the low returns of agriculture, and none of the people in the village who could build new houses relied on farming alone.

In this context, it is undoubtedly too difficult to rely on the villagers themselves to invest in infrastructure construction, after all, the infrastructure construction cannot produce economic benefits, and the construction of facilities is facing the characteristics of slow return on investment, which makes investment even more difficult.

Xu Yi thought that how could his store create a certain value, so that the extra income could be invested in the construction of his home.

As for the loss, there is room for saving, Xu Yi doesn't believe that he can really have any losses.

Every penny invested today will always be recouped in the near future with interest.

Assuming that there is really no space, then as long as you operate in good faith, you can make a little gain no matter how bad the legal operation is.

In comparison, the risk of agricultural work in spring planting and autumn harvest is not necessarily much smaller than opening such a shop.

After all, the natural environment is not in the space, and the harvest can be guaranteed without disease and disaster, let alone planting it today, pouring a scoop of water and waiting until tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to harvest.

Only by relying on technology and good planting management techniques can agricultural production be reduced and a good harvest can be achieved.

It is not without reason that Xu Yi thinks so.

In comparison, the total area of Changping Village is not small.

After mobilizing the mountain people out of the mountains and relocating them to various villages in the county, the county allocated a large area of mountains and forests around the village to Changping Village.

At that time, it can be said that Changping Village had almost 100 square kilometers of land - although most of it was only mountainous. The ones that are close to the village have been cut down because of the great steel smelting.

But not until the reserve is established. The current village boundary is basically bounded by the Bailong River. To the west and north of a mountainous area, plus a small piece of flat land around the village, an area of about ten or twenty square kilometers.

Compared with other villages, such an area is already quite large, but it is a pity that for so many years, there are many mountains and few areas that can be effectively utilized, which has become the biggest obstacle on the road to prosperity in Changping Village.

The land in the village is on Xu Yi's way home, and the upstream and downstream can be divided into two pieces.

The area upstream is only three or four hundred acres. Downstream, low-lying marshland has been reclaimed after the damming of the reservoir -- about 500 acres in size.

The total cultivated land area is less than one square kilometer, accounting for less than 10 percent of the village area.

That's why the village has so much enthusiasm for building a reservoir.

They all thought that the reservoir would be repaired and that water would be available downstream, so that they would not have to rely on the little land to grow millet and corn to fill their stomachs.

However, what the villagers did not expect was that the flow had just been cut off, and a heavy rain caused the reservoir to accumulate strictly, and the reservoir had lost its function before it functioned.

In the days of the production team, because there was no water source, most of the land was only planted with crops such as soybeans and corn. Moreover, in years with a lot of rain, it is often easy to rot roots and lodging due to stagnant water, resulting in a reduction in yield.

In recent years, rice has yielded high returns. Therefore, these low-lying areas in the village have been directly converted into paddy fields, but there is no water source, so the land can only be irrigated by pumping.

Especially in the past few years, when it comes to rice transplanting, most of the days are dry and dry, and at the end of the year, it costs almost 100 yuan to pump one acre of land.

In the same way, when there is a lot of rain in the flood year, the water in the field cannot be released again.

Basically, all kinds of expenses add up, and this acre of land is almost seven or eight hundred yuan, and if it is contracted land, it will cost another six or seven hundred yuan in land rent.

The yield of one mu of rice is about 1,000 catties, and even the better plots are less than 1,100 catties.

According to the current price of rice, it is basically less than 2,000 yuan, and the local rape and rice crops are generally cultivated, plus the income of rapeseed can be almost 3 or 400 yuan a year, and the income that one mu of land can bring to the peasants is only more than 1,000 yuan, and no more than 2,000 yuan.

If this is a contracted field, then the best result is only five or six hundred yuan a year.

Moreover, such a calculation is only an idealized calculation result, and does not take into account the consumption part of the peasants' own food.

Therefore, relying on the benefits of farming alone, let alone investment, even in this society where prices are soaring, there is a big problem in surviving, so the barren mountains in my village can only be abandoned there by them, and they cannot be well used.

In this context, it is conceivable how big a gap there will be in the demand for funds, and I am afraid that I will not be able to make so much money by robbing the bank alone.

Of course, there are ways for the poor to pass the law, and there is a way for the rich to pass the way.

Just like at the beginning, he thought that he would be admitted to a medical university to ensure that the villagers were healthier, and then use his salary to find a way to build a nursery and cultivate some fast-growing tree species, so that he could create more value for the villagers on the premise of realizing the greening of barren mountains.

Although this approach is relatively slow, it is always subtly increasing the income of the villagers.

Or after three or five years, ten or twenty years, you can always get yourself and some people around you out of poverty and live a relatively decent life.

Money is not everything, but no money is everything.

And now, with the storage of space, Xu Yi has more ideas to make the villagers rich faster with less investment.

But now that there is space, it is clear that a space that can at least be planted will have a heavy adjustment and change in its own plans, and if there is no fear of this space being exposed, then it will only take a short time to fill the surrounding mountains with cash crops.

Of course, such a risk is something Xu Yi can't afford, and he is afraid that if he is not sent to slices, he will not end up with any good results--he has to think about it in the long run.

Not only poverty, but also other problems in the village - such as the loss of labor, the environment, housing, travel, and so on.

These have to be solved little by little, far from being solved in a moment, nor can they be solved with the money that Xu Yi can make in one store.

So. Fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the villagers. Working together is the best solution.

Things in the village were planned for a long time. Xu Yi thought about the question of what role he should play in such a development route in the future.

After all, we must play a certain role in the development of the village, and to do these well, we must have a way to solve some of the relevant knowledge that we lack.

Or some decisions were made before, and I was a little hasty.

But fortunately, this opportunity should still be there, and you can make a decision at that time, and it depends on whether the revenue of the store can meet your needs.

And there are still a few months to go. There must always be time to prepare for the corresponding assessment.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly - this has come full circle, and the final problem also returns to the development of this store, which is really ......

The bustling and extravagant provincial city is not my favorite place after all, but I have to stay here for the purpose of exams or opening a store, and now I have filled in one more reason for myself to stay here!

Originally, I just wanted to open this store to provide a safe market for the products of the space, and then provide the first pot of gold for myself to go home and develop.

Now that's one more reason to have to open well.

Naturally, I want to be beautiful, after all, this belongs to the first time that the eldest girl gets on the sedan chair. The store may have basically no loss, how much can it earn. It's really hard to estimate.

But in any case, this store is open, at least it can solve the problem of investment in their own development at home.

Even if you don't have this storefront, you can simply go home and farm, only rely on spring planting and autumn harvest, and mix some grain into the harvested crops, which will definitely get some funds for construction and development.

Grain production has never been an accurate figure, as long as we are cautious and grasp the issue of quantity and degree, as long as there is no myth of 10,000 catties per mu during the Great Leap Forward, it will be absolutely safe.

There is this store here as a cover, as long as it does not lose money, it is even more incomparably safe, after all, not everyone is from the tax bureau, and the two places operate two revenues, and no one can completely figure out the question of how much income they have, so it is safer to invest at home.

So even if in order to have a better future for the village, and its own garlic, it has to be better to open this shop and open it well.

As for the problem of too much investment in the early stage, in addition to causing a little tighter now, I will be able to earn it back sooner or later when I really open the business.

Although the restaurant and even the winery are becoming more and more sluggish because of the reduction of public money consumption little by little, I have never thought about this aspect of the problem.

After all, what I have to do in the future is to eat a healthy diet and take the civilian route, even ordinary people can afford to eat it.

The living conditions are good, this costs a little money to eat and drink, and the average family can afford to eat, plus this is a tourist area and some tourists, there will be no problem if you want to come to this source of tourists.

The fat man agrees with the direction he has chosen, his family also runs a restaurant, no matter how this vision is stronger than himself, it is no problem to make a profit in this store.

What's more, so many restaurants and hotels along the river can survive, and I'm afraid not all of them have their own properties. People can survive with high rents, so what's so difficult to open a small shop by yourself?

Growing up in the countryside since he was a child, because of his past life, Xu Yi is more sensitive than his peers, and he also has more perseverance that does not match his age, and he knows more about the difficulties of rural life.

It's easy to go back by yourself, and it's not too difficult to support yourself, but it's as easy as you think to achieve your goals and put the village on the road to prosperity.

From losing his job, to getting space, to being busy preparing to open a store during this time, Xu Yi has not forgotten what he wants to do.

So although the things that are busy now have nothing to do with his profession and are not directly related to his goals, at most they just make Xu Yi feel a little tired and tired, and he will not really have the irritability and anxiety that he can't do. (To be continued......)
