Chapter Ninety-Five: Buying Land
"Hmm. I want to think about it!"
After hearing this, Zhang Chu began to calculate in his heart that the price of two hundred yuan per mu was not high. It's just that this is the countryside, and it's still a wasteland!
You must know that in the next ten years, the camellia forest in Zhang Chu's village will be occupied, and it will only be made up for by hundreds of yuan per mu, which is the land that can still produce camellia every year.
"The price is a bit high, the contract fee for the reservoir is only 1,000 yuan a year, and only 100,000 yuan in 100 years. I'm going to buy that place, and I'll be able to contract it for a hundred years!"
"Besides, what can I do with those 500 acres of wasteland? What am I going to do, I have to invest more money into it. Two hundred and one acres is too expensive, and I can't accept this price. β
Shaking his head, Zhang Chu deliberately pretended that the cost was too high, and he was unwilling to spend this money. In fact, that place is worth more than that.
Just that reservoir, if the water in it is drained, the fish in it will be worth hundreds of thousands, not to mention such a large wasteland!
In his previous life, the reservoir was taken over by the younger brother of the village party secretary, and later because there were no people planting the surrounding land, he just took this opportunity to dry up the reservoir.
As a result, because of this reservoir, I made a lot of money. There was a pit at the bottom of the reservoir, and if you usually pull the net, the fish will drill into the pit, so you can't catch the fish.
But when the reservoir is depleted, the situation is different. The fish that have been stocked for decades are all in it without nets, and no one can run away, all of them are dozens of catties of big fish.
This big, wild fish that isn't fed much will be worth a lot of money in the future. In particular, the black fish and those large yellow eels inside, as well as the soft-shelled turtles, are more valuable.
"Don't be in such a hurry, young man, this price can be negotiated. You have earned money outside and come to your hometown to invest. It's all your own people, and our brigade will definitely support you. You see how much money is appropriate, we can continue to talk. β
The village party secretary looked at Zhang Chu a little moved, and immediately added a few words, showing that he was quite enthusiastic. In the past, this contract was only 1,000 yuan a year, how many years could he take it?
But after selling it at one time, this is nearly 100,000 yuan, and then you can get it at one time, how cool it is. As for the future, who cares about his flood!
The two talked for a while, and finally the village party secretary said that he would hold a meeting to discuss, and then give Zhang Chu the final result, at this time Zhang Chu had already cut the price to 100 yuan per mu.
"What? You're going to buy all the reservoirs?"
After returning home, Zhang's mother heard her son talk about buying land, and immediately jumped up. Her personality is a little impatient, which is one of the reasons why she has not been able to handle the relationship at home.
"What are you anxious about? You don't know your son's ability? Do you think you are better than Xiao Chu?"
After Dad Zhang took a puff of cigarette on the side, he said Mom Zhang unhurriedly. If it weren't for the upcoming New Year, it is estimated that the two would have quarreled over this little thing.
It's not the first time Zhang Chu has seen this kind of scene, he has always been curious, why is it so easy for his parents to make trouble over a little thing?
Maybe it's all harmless because of the lack of money, the family situation has not been good in the previous life, and there will always be a little emotion between the two, so it is not pleasing to the eye.
"Don't fight over this little thing, the family is not short of money now, what's the point of you fighting for this? The reservoir contract is 1,000 yuan a year, and it will cost 50,000 yuan in 50 years. β
After hearing this, Zhang Chu hurriedly explained, so as not to have endless disputes between the two. He bought the place and had his own plans.
"The price I'm talking to them about now is 50,000 yuan, and that includes the surrounding wasteland. Those places can be planted with camellia trees and honeysuckle or something, even if you don't plant the land and it doesn't matter. β
Even if Zhang's father didn't say that he would contract a reservoir to raise ducks, Zhang Chu would think about it after thinking about it, and he had always had thoughts about it.
In addition to the fish in the reservoir, Zhang Chu has always wanted to have a few acres of land, a mountain forest, and a leisure life with his wife and children on the hot kang in his previous life.
After buying this place, he can build it according to this model. And because the countryside doesn't cost much money, I can still come here to play and catch a fish in the future.
I catch wild fish, eat my own vegetables, and don't think about anything. Just thinking about that kind of day, I think it's beautiful.
In my previous life, I had no money and no land, so I can only think about it. Now that he has a chance, spend tens of thousands of yuan to get it down, this Zhang Chu is naturally willing.
When Zhang Chu said this, Zhang's mother thought about it, and it seemed that it was going on. And now that Zhang Chu can make money, Zhang's mother feels that her son has the ability, and there should be no mistake.
And so, the matter was settled. Zhang Chu is rich now, and he has made a career outside, so what he said is still a little powerful.
I don't know if they have held a meeting or not, and Zhang Chu doesn't know if they have held a meeting. In the evening, he told Zhang Chu that the price was okay and asked Zhang Chu to sign the contract.
When signing the contract, a requirement was added, that is, everything could not be announced, and once the contract was announced, it would be invalid. This request seems unreasonable, but it just appears.
Zhang Chu just listened to this thing, and then smiled meaningfully. How could he not know what these people wanted to do? But even if Zhang Chu knew, what could he do?
He is just a little bit of money outside, what role can he play? If he changes this village party secretary, the other one will not necessarily be better than this.
"Xiao Chu, I want to talk to you. β
After returning home, Zhang Chu gave the contract to his father, and then explained it to him. That piece of land is now their Zhang family, and his father can do whatever he wants to raise ducks.
When he gets tired of what is going on over there, Zhang Chu will consider arranging this place by himself and making it into a small manor, so that he can come over for a vacation when he is resting.
After dinner, Zhang Chu was about to go back to his room to do something, Zhang Yong stopped him a little awkwardly, and seemed to have something to find Zhang Chu.
"Well, let's talk to my room. β
Zhang Yong and the girl's affairs have been negotiated, and the engagement wine will be held on the sixth day of the New Year, and then the girl will go out with Zhang Yong.
The girl Zhang Chu didn't know, but just listened to her mother. It seems that her parents run a restaurant in the city, and the girl has been working with her parents in the city since she graduated from junior high school.
At this time, the treatment of men marrying wives is much better than before, and it really feels hard for men to marry wives before, and it is also hard to get engaged or something.
I remember that when I was in the nineties, the young people in the village got married. When I got engaged, I had to call a few companions in the village, pick up a head of more than 200 catties of pork, and walk more than ten miles to the bride's house.
At that time, many places were worse than the current roads, all of them were mud roads, there were few cars, and there were no motorcycles, and many times they relied on their legs.
And when you get engaged, you have to pick the pig to kill and send it over, although a few people change the pick, but I feel toothache when I want to go down that distance.
In fact, not only the man suffers, but the woman will not have an easy time. When a girl marries, her family will invite someone to bring her dowry.
What a wardrobe, a sewing machine, a bicycle or something, all of them are large things to move to their husband's house, although they are all in the prime of life, but such a long distance is still hard.
However, at that time, the more things that were paid attention to the marriage, the more face the woman's family had, so the better the wife's conditions, the more she had to move.
It feels so troublesome to think about it, it looks like it is now. For example, Zhang Yong and his fiancΓ©e, the two parties have confirmed their relationship, and as soon as they put the money at their mother-in-law's house, they should pick pork and send it over.
Then the mother-in-law's mother-in-law added some more, and when her daughter got married, she brought it to her daughter, and you young people should buy whatever furniture you want to use, it is too hard to move around.
The furniture that the old man looks at may not necessarily like it, so you young people take the money to choose what they like, how convenient and worry-free!
At this time, the face has also begun to keep pace with the times, no longer looking at the amount of furniture, but looking at how long the fleet is and how many luxury cars there are when welcoming relatives.
The countryside is about to be almost there, and the countryside looks at how many cars there are. Vans are also counted, too luxurious cars, and the older generation doesn't know a few.
