Chapter 52: Money is tight
had a good impression of this young man, Chen Wenchuan said without thinking about it: "Tell me, as long as it is within my purview, I will definitely agree!" ”
"As for me, I really want to contract this land, but it's really because I don't have enough money." Li Yuan said to Chen Wenchuan: "You see if this will work, I will pay the rent for one year first, and then pay off the next year after one year." In this way, I can save more than 40,000 yuan, and the pressure on my funds can be reduced. ”
Chen Wenchuan pondered for a moment, then frowned and asked Li Yuan: "Then how many years do you plan to rent it in total?" ”
Li Yuan said: "I really do this business as a lifelong career, and I have to rent it for at least ten years." Village Chief, when I plant the vegetables, you will know that I am not talking casually, but I am indeed so sure! ”
Li Yuan dared to say such bold words, of course, out of absolute confidence in Jin Zhu. Chen Wenchuan looks like an old farmer, and he believes that as long as he sees those vegetables, he will know that he will be able to pay next year's rent on time.
In fact, Li Yuan's requirements have exceeded Chen Wenchuan's bottom line, but for the sake of this young man's ambition to devote himself to agriculture, the real old village chief decided to help him. After thinking about it for a while, Chen Wenchuan nodded lightly and said, "Okay, I agreed to this matter." But...... You have to write an IOU stating that you owe a year's rent and that you will definitely pay it back after a year. ”
Speaking of this, Chen Wenchuan explained with some embarrassment: "I personally believe in you, but I still have to be responsible to the villagers, so I ......."
"That's fine, it should be." Li Yuan interrupted Chen Wenchuan's words with a smile and said, "Village Chief Chen, you have already done me a great favor by doing this. So don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you, and I will definitely hand over next year's rent to the village on time. ”
Li Yuan's statement made Chen Wenchuan very satisfied, and nodded with a smile: "Okay, then let's go to the village committee and sign the contract first!" ”
In fact, Li Yuan was more anxious than Chen Wenchuan, so he naturally did not object, and soon followed Chen Wenchuan to the village committee, and used the village committee's computer to print out the contract on the spot.
Li Yuan signed his name at the back of the contract, and Chen Wenchuan also stamped the big red seal of "Ningxia Village Committee, Sanlin Township, Pujiang County, Wuxi City" at the same time, and the contract was established.
Of course, Li Yuan did not forget to write another IOU, stating that he would pay off next year's rent within a year, and solemnly signed his name.
Chen Wenchuan carefully locked the contract and IOU into the filing cabinet, and then said to Li Yuan with a smile: "Xiao Li, in the next ten years, the right to use this land is yours." The contract makes it clear that this land can only be used for agricultural purposes, so we have to say this first! ”
Li Yuan also smiled: "You can rest assured about this, I contracted this land to grow vegetables, and I am not happy to use it for other things!" ”
Chen Wenchuan really likes to hear this, and said with a smile when he heard this: "That's good, when you pay the first year's rent, you can start sorting out the land." I've lived here for decades, and I'm surrounded by people who know me well, so if you need help, just say it! We're neighbors now, so you're welcome! ”
Of course, Li Yuan would not be polite in this kind of matter, so he happily agreed, and then said goodbye and left.
Although the contract stated that Li Yuan only needed to pay one year's rent to the Ningxia Village Committee within a week. But he still came back the next day and handed over a year's rent of 92 acres of land, a total of 46,000 yuan in cash, to Chen Wenchuan.
Li Yuan is such a person, if others are really good to him, he will repay the other party with the same attitude. Chen Wenchuan agreed to collect a year's rent first, so that Li Yuan would be grateful to him, and naturally he would not delay the payment.
Li Yuan paid the rent in such a way, which also made Chen Wenchuan very satisfied, and felt that this young man knew how to advance and retreat, and was trustworthy, and he really didn't see the wrong person.
After opening the receipt to Li Yuan, Chen Wenchuan said to him with a smile: "Xiao Li, now you can start preparing the land, do you have any plans?" ”
Li Yuan smiled bitterly: "I won't tell you, it's the first time I've managed such a large piece of land, and I don't have a clue at the moment." ”
Chen Wenchuan nodded and said, "It's understandable, I also felt this way when I was first elected as the village chief of Ningxia Village, and I didn't know where to start." I want to ...... in the first place."
Maybe it's because he's older, Chen Wenchuan likes to reminisce about the past. As soon as the three words "want to be" came out, followed by a half-hour memoir and autobiography.
Poor Li Yuan was embarrassed to leave if he wanted to, so he could only stay and listen to Chen Wenchuan reminisce about the eventful years of the year. And out of politeness, he not only had to smile when he listened, but also reacted with appreciation, anger and regret when appropriate, which was really hard.
And because of Li Yuan, a qualified audience, Chen Wenchuan talked about sex even more. I didn't stop talking for half an hour, and I didn't even drink a sip of water.
Even so, Chen Wenchuan is still unsatisfied, and after recalling the events of the last century, he is ready to introduce his experience in the 21st century from the beginning.
Seeing that Chen Wenchuan continued to talk like this, I was afraid that he would not be able to get out at night, Li Yuan hurriedly interrupted him with a smile: "Village Chief Chen, I have thought about it, but now I still have to tidy up the ground first." However, if you rely on manpower alone, I am afraid that it will take a long time to build nearly 100 acres of land, do you have any way? ”
When it came to business, Chen Wenchuan was not ambiguous, he stopped recalling, and after a moment of silence, he said: "It is indeed too slow to rely on manpower to complete such a large piece of land, I can help you contact it, and let people use small agricultural machinery to prepare the land for you, but this cost ......"
Of course, Li Yuan knew that it would cost money to hire someone to renovate the land, and when he heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "Of course the cost must be paid, and the price outside will be whatever the price, but it can't make you embarrassed." ”
Since Li Yuan had already expressed his position, Chen Wenchuan contacted people in front of him, and after some bargaining, agreed on a price of 80 yuan per mu of land. Li Yuan had to pay half of the money first, and pay the balance after all the land was ploughed, and the other party promised to finish plowing the land in three days.
Li Yuan asked Chen Wenchuan to help him keep an eye on the quality of the cultivated land, and then he paid half of the money to the other party's account, and the other party promised to come over the day after tomorrow and start working. As long as it doesn't rain, all the land preparation work can be completed by the end of the week.
Although Li Yuan solved the problem of land preparation, he went out for nearly 10,000 yuan. Thinking that there is still a drip irrigation system that has not been found, and that he will build a vegetable greenhouse, ask workers to help, and next year's rent, Li Yuan's head hurts a little.
So after leaving the village committee of Ningxia Village, Li Yuan couldn't help but sigh: "Alas, where can I get so much money?" ”
