Chapter 685: There Are Always Eyes on the Top
"Buy? Let the villagers sell their ancestral land for money? ”
"This naturally doesn't work, forcibly buy the land of the villagers, and the people turn around and go to Beijing to beat the drum and voice their grievances, what will you do then?"
"You can't slaughter the village, and you can't buy it by force, is there any other way?"
"Yes, yes, it's worth a try, everyone unites to buy land in order to do business, to buy themselves an industry that can be passed on to their children and grandchildren, not to get a human life, that's too unlucky, that will damage their reputation, they are all students who are famous, and they are also counting on earning a jinshi to serve the country in the future, and they can't afford to splash dirty water on themselves at this time to leave a stigma, since there are so many restrictions, there is only one way left."
"Tell me about it."
"Since the villagers are landlords, we rent their land and price it according to wasteland, raw land and cooked land."
"Rent? How much does this cost per year? ”
"It's definitely cheaper than the price we paid for forcibly seizing the land, once the trouble happens, the money spent on the aftermath alone is enough to pay the rent, and in the end, we still embark on the road of slaughtering the village and destroying the mouth."
"Wait a minute, we rented the land of the villagers, so what did the villagers do this year? Just waiting to eat the rent? ”
"Of course, we hire them to be our hired farmers and farm for us, and as long as they are rented, the canals and ditches built in a unified way will also go to their villages, and they don't spend a penny, but they get new irrigation facilities, and the alliance also gets their land, and neither side suffers."
"We rented the villagers' land, and we had to hire them to do the work? Let them earn two bucks? ”
"What? Only allow your sons and sons to get rich, and don't allow others to make more money? ”
"I didn't mean that, don't worry, I'll ask more, I have something to say when others ask."
"That's pretty much it."
"Come on, come on, tell me more carefully, we have rented the land of the village, hired them to do things, and spent money to repair irrigation facilities, so what are the benefits of our side?"
"First of all, those villagers have been farming for generations, and they are already skilled in farming, and they are the talents that the alliance is in short supply. Instead of spending the effort to move the peasants from elsewhere, why not just leave them behind? ”
"yes, forget that."
"When the villagers know that it is profitable, they will naturally agree to sign a contract with us, and even take the initiative to extend the lease period, so we can casually set a 50-year contract, and the money for renting land and hiring farmers will be drizzling for a long time."
"It's really good, it's a good calculation."
"This is the gentlest way to solve the problem, and beyond that, all that can be done can end up being violent, bad, and contrary to the principle of harmony and wealth."
"Okay, I'll remember, let's talk to them tomorrow."
The next day, Gu Yun invited all the people of the alliance to talk to the palace chief's house, and asked them to send their subordinates home to say, if the time is late, they will stay overnight, and it just so happens that the school time is also early today, and a group of people also caught up with an afternoon snack when they came to King Cheng's mansion.
Now that it's cold, everyone gathers in the west wing of the guest house, which is open and paved with floors, and a group of sons and brothers are each nesting in their most comfortable position, and each person puts a copy of the map in front of them, while eating and drinking, while discussing the problem of taking the land.
Those wastelands are easy to manage, and they can be bought with money, but those five villages are a headache, Gu Yun has an idea in his heart, he looks calm, and listens to other people's opinions first.
No matter how you discuss it, the means you come up with will eventually turn into violence, all of which are guessed by Bai Ko, or the method she said is the most peaceful, and it is most likely to be accepted by both sides, otherwise the villagers would rather eat a meal and go to Beijing to complain if they go out, and their group of people really can't hold back.
Everyone talked around, and they didn't think they had any reliable good ideas, Shi Tianmin came back to his senses, pointed at Gu Yun and said with a smile: "It seems that I haven't heard you speak, you kid don't say a word, what kind of idea do you hold?" ”
"He doesn't have any ideas, I'm afraid that Bai Ko has already given him a trick yesterday, and he will sit firmly in Diaoyutai at this time and watch our jokes." The palace chief scolded with a smile.
Gu Yun finally didn't hold back, grinned, so angry that his brothers and buddies really wanted to smash him with the food in their hands.
"Don't grind, tell me quickly, what good ideas do you have."
Gu Yun put his feet on the shelf, and slowly took a sip of tea first, provoked everyone to raise their pens and www.biquge.info hearts and teacups, and he finally repeated Bai Ko's opinion as it was, and everyone pondered together after listening, although it was said that it would cost two money, and it was also necessary to build water conservancy for the village, but those villagers were all ready-made farmers who were familiar with farming, and they still held their own land, and there was no change for them, and if the lease period was extended, this rent and wages were really not a big expense
So on this opinion, everyone discussed it again, thinking that there is really no better idea, it is better to pick a village to try, if it is successful, the other four villages can be taken according to the gourd painting.
It was getting late at this time, everyone was in high spirits, no one wanted to leave, and they just sent their family home to say hello during the day, so they coaxed Gu Yun together, asking him to call Bai Ko to come over and cook for everyone.
Bai Ko received the message in the house, changed his clothes and passed, first saluted everyone in the wing room, and then went to the kitchen to cook dinner, and made a large table of wine and food with ready-made ingredients, and also made a dinner for the princess Ning Peilan that met her current taste, and was left to eat after being sent to her room, so as not to wait for those gentlemen.
When the two women get along, they naturally talk about the land, Bai Ko said her opinion again, Ning Peilan thinks it is feasible, but the details need to be discussed again, the price of dividing the land into three classes must be set, and there must be some differences between wasteland, raw land and cooked land, so that the villagers will be enthusiastic about opening up the wasteland out of greed or profit, and strive to make the wasteland raw land before signing the contract to earn a little more rent
As for the candidates to negotiate in the village, Ning Peilan is also in charge, and the talents of the Ning family are all ready-made, so there is no need to use them in vain.
The palace chief succeeded there, and this group of sons and brothers finally officially decided on one thing, first get the land in hand, and while starting civil construction, they slowly grinded with the five villages, and they couldn't spend all their time on them.
When it comes to paying for land, everyone is like dividing pastries on the map in front of them, the three major shareholders are hundreds of acres and hundreds of acres of land, and the rest is divided by others, but this wasteland is large enough, the least one person has subscribed for fifty acres, and even a few people who were not present have subscribed for a part of the land with the help of others, and that large piece of wasteland is simply divided as if the victorious side of the war is dividing the fruits of victory.
And the five villages are very tacitly attributed to the three major shareholders, and the three of them are not the masters of the bad money, so according to the size of the village, Gu Yun took a village located inland but the largest, Gong Changji and Shi Tianmin divided the remaining four villages, two for each person, and the wasteland subscribed by the three of them was also as close to the village as possible, so as to facilitate contact.
The matter has been agreed, and everyone rests and waits for good news.
Two days later, the people sent by Ning Peilan took everyone together to go to the Yamen to go through the land purchase procedures, and bought all the large wasteland in one go, and the names of each person were written in the title deed, and the Yingtianfu household specially allocated a scribe to do this, and he wrote that his hand was about to be broken, and he saw that the title deed was the name of the son of the powerful family, and the names of Gu Yun and the king of Chengjun were on it, so he kept an eye on it, and when the matter was done, he told his superiors, and soon Fu Yin knew, and after a while, a secret letter entered the palace, It was placed on the desk of the sage's imperial study.
After reading the secret letter, the sage summoned the Hubu Shangshu and made arrangements with him, and Lord Shangshu was ordered to retreat and secretly observe the every move of Gu Yun and their group of young people.
