Chapter 18 Farming Experts

"Thank you for the morning."

The little widow's voice is actually quite good, crisp and indescribable, some immature magnetic sounds, the appearance is not too beautiful, but looking carefully at this silhouette from under the kerosene lamp, I feel that the foundation is still very good, but the day after tomorrow is not cherished, so the intuitive image appearance is a lot worse, there are a few black spots freckles in the corners of the eyes.

Zhuqing didn't want her to take the initiative to come to him, so he was stunned, put down the instant noodles in his hand and said, "No, I said it was by the way." ”

"Oh." The little widow responded, and seemed to take Zhuqing's modesty as a kind of kindness that did not need to be repaid, and she was not a timidly little woman, and said: "I have been planting the two plots of land behind your house, and now that you are back, tomorrow I will remove the corn seedlings in the field and return the land to you." This is the real reason why she came to Zhuqing at such a night and night.

In the afternoon, Zhuqing's incident in Qiao's house attracted the whole village to watch, of course, it was not Zhuqing who made a big fuss at Qiao's family, it was Qiao's old demon who played a scoundrel and roared and shouted to attract the whole village, when the little widow was carrying a big pigweed home, and happened to hear the reason why Zhuqing and Qiao's family made trouble.

After finishing speaking, the little widow didn't stay anymore and continued to say anything to Zhuqing, she held the kerosene lamp in her hand, turned around and left.

"Wait." Zhuqing stopped her.

The little widow was slightly stunned, and stopped to look back at him.

Zhuqing said: "You have been planting the two plots of land behind my house? ”

The little widow was a little nervous: "You haven't been there all these years, and the land is empty, I just used the past few years, and I haven't done anything to your family's land, and your family is not less than a centimeter, so if you want to ask for rent, I won't give it to you, I'll go tomorrow to remove the corn seedlings, don't worry, I won't dominate anymore." ”

When Zhu Qing heard her say this, he couldn't help frowning, and secretly sighed that Old Demon Qiao's yelling was really still tarnishing his noble image.

"I'm not asking for rent, and I'm not so stingy, Qiao Lao Demon is someone in the village, you know, I don't need to say more. I went to his house tonight, just to ask him to return the land to me, and not to ask for rent, so let's explain this. ”

Zhu Qing didn't want to explain the afternoon's events, and then said: "You have been farming all these years, I have to thank you, if you don't plant, I still have to find a way to renovate the land, I stopped you, I just want to ask you, do you know much about farming?" ”

Hearing Zhu say this, the little widow was slightly puzzled for a moment before saying, "I have been farming since I was a child. ”

"I see." Zhuqing nodded.

The little widow turned again.

"Wait." Seeing her turn away, Zhuqing called out to stop her again.

The little widow frowned slightly and said, "Is there anything you can do all at once?" On a big night, lonely men and widows are easy to gossip. ”

"You also know that it's easy to provoke people at night, so why did you run over at night, since you ran over, of course, you have to finish talking at once." Zhu Qing thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it, but said, "I want to hire you as my planting expert." ”

"What do you mean?" The little widow doesn't know too much.

Zhuqing said: "To put it simply, help me farm, I don't know much about planting, so I need to find someone to help me, and since you are very familiar with farming, I need you to help me." ”

After hearing this, the little widow ignored Zhu Qing and turned to leave, as if she thought Zhu Qing was joking.

Farming expert? When did the average peasant also have such a high-ranking title.

"I'll give you a salary of 2,000 yuan a month, I really don't have much experience in farming, if you think I'm teasing you, this is my seed, I really came back to farm this time."

Zhuqing saw that the little widow didn't believe it, thinking that he was lying to her, so he took out the seeds to show his innocence.

The little widow had just taken two steps and then stopped, turning her head to look at Zhuqing, who was already holding several bags of seeds in his hand.

"I have already told Secretary Liu that I plan to contract all the land on this mountain." Zhuqing said.

The little widow stared at Zhuqing unexpectedly, and after a moment said, "I want to plant my family's land, and I won't give it to you." ”

Zhuqing knew that he might encounter some trouble when he came back, so he had already thought of a way to persuade when he came back, but after he came back, he found that most of the land on the mountain was barren, and it was estimated that it would not be difficult to contract, which would be since the little widow had an opinion, he would be happy to explain.

"I'll settle the math for you. According to the price of one acre of land here, you have to have about 600 yuan a year, you can plant corn on one acre of land, how much can you harvest? Regardless of the harvest for the time being, let's calculate the expenses, first your seed money, then the fertilizer money in your field, then the time you spend plowing the land, and the energy to take care of the field day and night, do you know what the lowest wage is out there now? You have to be more than 100 a day, even if it is 100, you have to have 3,000 a month, can you earn 3,000 yuan a month by guarding one acre and three points of land in your own home? Can you earn 30,000 yuan a year? ”

"It's just the income I give you. Now I will talk about my conditions, first, I am willing to contract your land, the cost will definitely not be less than you, second, I don't have enough experience in planting now, so I want to ask you to help me plant, give you 2,000 a month, if calculated annually, you have to have an income of 20,000 a year, this is pure income, you don't need to spend, you just need to pay some time, but your time is far more than you use to grow your own food and have a benefit effect. ”

"Third, after I start planting, I plan to develop the scale, hundreds of acres, thousands of acres, and all of them are using technical drip irrigation methods, reduce manual labor, and hire you to help me plant for a long time in the future, and the salary will naturally increase, in short, you don't need to go out to work, you can earn money working outside at home."

"Just like you did this morning, the grain you worked so hard to grow had to be carried to the town to sell on your back, but the big bag of grain was bought by your efforts and efforts for half a year. How tired do you have to be before you switch to money? How much is that bag of grain worth? How about two thousand dollars a month? It's a lot worse. ”

After saying what he thought in his heart, Zhu Qing took a sip of noodle soup and continued: "People's thinking needs to be constantly changed and innovated in order to be better accepted by new things, I think my conditions are really good, and you can also use your ability to exchange for higher returns than yourself, I am very sincere, I hope you will consider it seriously." ”

The little widow stared blankly at Zhuqing, not knowing if she understood. The night wind grabbed the flames on the kerosene lamp and swayed them, as if they were about to forcibly snatch the flames away, and the already dim light around them also flickered and dimmed.

After a while, she didn't ask any questions, and quietly walked away with the kerosene lamp in her hand.

Zhu Qing didn't stop her again this time, it takes time to change his thoughts, he suddenly stretched out his thighs to let people hug him now, he will definitely startle the little widow, she hesitated to think about it, if she really doesn't want to, Zhu Qing will not force it, there is no shortage of farming in the village, which rural people will not farm, he believes that as long as he prescribes the conditions just now, there will be no too many people who refuse to drop pies in the world.

Early the next morning.

After Zhuqing woke up, he went to the back of the house, behind his house is a mountainous area, and there are indeed two plots of land in his house, yesterday he didn't pay close attention, today he walked outside the house and noticed that there were indeed no weeds in the field of his house, and there were neat corn seedlings in rows and rows.

It's just that now these jade seedlings are being hoeed off by the little widow with a hoe, I don't know when the little widow got up, the corn seedlings have been hoeed for the most part, but she is crying while removing the seedlings, and she seems to be very distressed that these seedlings have just been removed from the feet, which is somewhat a pity.

"Fortunately, there are two vacant plots, and when she gets rid of the seedlings, she will plant them now."

Zhu Qing didn't feel sorry for these corn seedlings, he was now going to plant his own special seeds, and the wealth that these seeds could bring was far more valuable than these ordinary corn seedlings.

"Have you thought about last night?"

Zhuqing walked into the field and asked the little widow who was removing the seedlings.

The little widow lowered her head and didn't look at Zhuqing, as if she didn't want Zhuqing to look at her crying.
