Chapter 45: Snatching Food from the Tiger's Mouth
Following the sound, an old man who was at least sixty years old stood outside the courtyard wall of the blacksmith yard with a handful of grass in his hand, and he didn't know who he was, but he still had the leisure to weed in this dilapidated blacksmith yard.

"Are you ......," Liu He asked tentatively.
"Hey, boy, don't ask me who I am, as long as I'm here, don't even think of going inside." The old man looked at Liu He with a smile, and then said: "You kid doesn't look like a petty thief, you should still be a student baby, why didn't you go to school today?" ”
"Uncle, let me explain first that I came here for a purpose......
This old man is really in a hurry, and before Liu He finished speaking, he interrupted: "Explain what, the blackworks have been closed for several years, who is idle and has nothing to do here, and they all come here with a purpose, and I told you that there are no valuable things in it, so don't dig your mind." ”
really regarded him as the person with the idea of beating the iron field, but after thinking about it, Liu He laughed a little, he was really playing the idea of the iron field, but he didn't just go in and steal chickens and dogs.
"Uncle, don't worry, listen to me first, whether it is intact or not, I heard that this blacksmith is going to be contracted to the outside world, and I am here specifically for the contracting this time."
After listening to Liu He's explanation, the sixty-year-old man looked him up and down again, and he didn't believe it at all: "Just you, how old are you this year, what are you contracted to do in the iron field, don't play tricks with me, you kid just want to fish in troubled water, I'll tell you no way." ”
This old comrade's sense of precaution is really strong, not a little bit, seeing that the other party should have something to do with this blackfield, but the contracting matter has nothing to do with him Liu He didn't bother to continue to explain, but said: "I said that I came here to inspect the blackfield, and no one came to the blackfield to contract the street office?" ”
The old man was a little annoyed when he saw that Liu He completely ignored what he just said, and he also wanted to ignore Liu He in his heart, but he seemed to think of something and squeezed out an ugly smile with wrinkles on his face: "Boy, the blackfield is ready to be contracted to foreign countries, but first you have someone who has been here before, and now the comrades from the street office have taken the other party to the office, so you don't have a chance." ”
"Can you ask where the neighborhood office is?" Liu He's heart was very tight, if the blackfield was contracted, then his plan would have to make a lot of changes, except for a few houses at the end of the town, the rest of the place was full of crops and woods.
If there is no iron field, the father's furniture factory needs to be newly built, then the first thing is to acquire land, and then to build, and the second is to invest more funds, so that the investment takes a long time, and the furniture factory will take longer to produce benefits, which is undoubtedly a disaster for Liu He, who is short of time.
Seeing Liu He's serious face and not wanting to lie, the doubts in the sixty-year-old man's heart gradually disappeared, and he asked again with confirmation: "Are you really here for the contract to make an iron field?" ”
"Uncle, I've told you several times!" In his previous life, Liu He didn't know the place in the Liangzhen Street Office Office, and he had to inquire from the old man, Liu He patiently explained: "Listen to it, I'll say it again, this was originally my father who came to see it in person, but today he can't come because of something, and I specially asked for leave to come over." ”
"Oh, I see, what is your father going to do with the blackfield?" The old man asked casually.
Liu He didn't answer his question, but looked at the other party: "Uncle, should you tell me the location of the office first?" ”
"Hey, you come with me, let's talk as we go." Saying that, the old man threw away the grass and took the lead in the front, looking energetic.
Liu He followed closely and continued to explain: "My father is a skilled carpenter, and he plans to gather the masters who used to work with him to build a furniture workshop, but we have inconvenient transportation there and are not suitable for building a factory. ”
"You said that your father would build a furniture workshop after taking it here?" The sixty-year-old man asked a little eagerly when he heard this.
"yes!" Liu He was very anxious before, but now the other party seems to be even more anxious than him.
Sure enough, after getting Liu He's affirmative answer, the old man's steps became more hurried: "Let's go, step up, let's go and stop the other party from signing a contract with the street office." ”
Preventing the other party from signing the contract, although he didn't understand why the old man did this, but now their thoughts were the same, so Liu He silently accelerated his pace.
The street office of Zhongliang Town is not next to the Zhongliang Town Government, but it is the other end of the street opposite to the end of the town, and you have to pass through a row of bungalows after walking the street, located in a chic courtyard, if it were not for the street office sign hanging on the courtyard door, Liu He really thought that this was an ordinary house.
When the old man and Liu He had not yet stepped into the office of the street office, the sound of conversation coming from the office Liu He was already clearly audible.
"Director Pan, the blacksmithing yard used to be a place for ironmaking, and now we use it to make charcoal, which does not cause much pollution to the nearby environment, and do you see that there are other people besides us who are interested in that land, so don't hesitate." This is a relatively low voice, and the content that comes out of the voice is undoubtedly the main owner who intends to contract the blackfield.
Liu He began to understand the reason why the old man was more anxious than him at this moment, it turned out that now the boss wanted to contract the blacksmith yard as a charcoal processing workshop.
As we all know, the processing process of charcoal, whether it is made by modern machinery or soil method, there is a certain amount of pollution to the environment, mainly in the process of charcoal distillation, a large amount of exhaust gas will be produced to pollute the air, and people breathe these polluted air for a long time and are very prone to respiratory diseases.
And if Liu He's father took over the blackfield, there would only be some noise at most, but there was a certain distance from the town center at the end of the town, and there was a certain distance between the blackfield and the surrounding houses at that time, and those noises were almost negligible.
If there were only charcoal bosses for the street office to choose, they would definitely sign a contract with the other party, but now in the case of multiple choices, the street office has to give priority to Liu He under the premise of the same contract payment.
However, before Liu He and the others rushed into the office, Director Pan seemed to be moved by what the other party said: "You also have some truth, since the blackfield can be done, then there will not be much problem in processing charcoal, and I am not worried about the complaints of the surrounding villagers, but the contract we set is 900 per month, this number cannot be changed, it will be paid every six months, and the contract will be signed for three years." ”
"Director Pan, we are all small business, three years is not too long, and the contract money is not less, I know that the blacksmith is a collective industry, it would be good to have a little income every month, and I couldn't earn a penny by being idle there before, and now we have a temporary contract for the previous year, 600 yuan per month." As he spoke, Boss Huang lowered his voice: "If Director Pan can agree to the price I offered, I will count you as one hundred and fifteen per month for the remaining three hundred, which is one thousand and eight hundred yuan a year, what do you think?" ”
"This ......" 1,800 yuan a year is not a small amount, and Director Pan is a little moved.
However, at this moment, the door of the office room was pushed open, and the sixty-year-old man who led Liu He over said loudly: "Xiao Pan, I don't agree with the blacksmith to contract to this charcoal boss and give him the venue, his father is a furniture maker." ”
Director Pan looked back at the sixty-year-old man, and then looked at Liu He, although he felt that Liu He, who had a young face, was unreliable, no matter how he looked at it, he still asked patiently: "I don't know what to call the little brother." ”
Liu He calmly reported to his home and then prepared to take a tiger's mouth: "I am Liu He from Luyan Village, my father's name is Liu Kaiming, I can completely make the decision in the matter of contracting the blackfield, and now I decided to contract the blackfield at a price of 900 yuan per month, directly sign for three years and five years, and pay the contract for one year at a time." ”
