Eight o'clock in the evening.

The light from the energy-saving lamps in the hall is very bright.

Ye Feng's family of three was finishing their meal.

Three dishes, a pot of large crucian carp soup, a plate of chrysanthemum, and a plate of stir-fried cucumbers.

"I'm ready to extend the contract time for the orchard."

Ye Feng said suddenly.

"What?"

Mom and dad all looked at it.

Since the two of them ate the fish raised by Ye Feng, the vegetables and fruits planted, their faces were much more ruddy, and the two elders said that the small problems on their bodies before were gone, their backs were not sore, and their energy was better.

Especially my father, who used to look like a thin and swarthy little old man, now looks like he has changed a lot, his body seems to have gained a lot of weight, although his skin is still dark, but he looks much healthier, and he is no longer that shriveled feeling.

And my mother's skin is much better, the corners of her eyes are less wrinkled, and her originally rough hands have become much smoother.

Ye Feng saw it in his eyes, and sweetness was in his heart.

He said it again.

"You have your own ideas, let's do it yourself, but if the contract lasts longer, it will definitely cost a lot more money, you can take the passbook and spend it first, and the house can be built later."

Mom said.

"I have money in my hand now, you can rest assured, and the construction of the house cannot be postponed, the sooner the better, as for the money to build the house, it must not be less than 500,000."

Ye Feng said.

"Five hundred thousand, that's too much, twenty or thirty is enough."

Mom hesitated.

"If you want to build it, you must build it better, by the way, my brother is not from the Department of Architecture, let him design our home well."

Ye Feng said with a smile.

"Xiaohai will come back for a few days on May Day this time."

Dad said suddenly.

"That's just right."

Ye Feng put down the dishes and chopsticks and said, "I'll go back first, remember to eat the watermelon!" ”

He brought back half of the watermelon that he had cut on the mountain during the day, and it was too big for him to eat alone.

Sometimes, the watermelon is too big, and it's not a good thing, but I can't help it.

The next day, Ye Feng and his father came to the village committee.

Village Chief Song Haide was a little surprised when he heard that Ye Feng wanted to extend the contract time.

This orchard loses money every year, and there are not many people who are willing to contract, as a college student who went out of the village, Ye Feng actually resigned and came back to contract the orchard, he naturally supported it, so when contracting, he also reduced the contract price and gave enough discounts.

Of course, there is also his relationship with Ye Feng's father.

Don't look at the different surnames, the village chief Song Haide and Ye Feng's mother are still cousins, so with the help of this relationship, Ye Feng has only contracted for 50,000 yuan for three years.

"Kaede, you've figured it out."

Song Haide reminded.

In fact, for him and the entire village committee, the greater the benefits of being able to contract the orchard for a longer period of time, after all, if it is abandoned, it will have no value at all.

"Uncle Song, I have thought it through, and I have begun to improve the fruit trees, and it will definitely not be too bad in the future, I am very confident, so I am ready to contract for a longer time, so that the transformation of the orchard can be effectively completed."

Ye Feng said.

"Now that you've thought about it, then I won't say anything, how long are you going to sign?"

Song Haide is also a human spirit, so he naturally heard another meaning in Ye Feng's words, and immediately smiled.

"Fifty years."

Ye Feng said.

"What?"

Song Haide stood up and said with an incredulous expression, "Fengzi, this is not a joke, fifty years, this time is not short, the contract cost is not low, in my opinion, five to eight years is enough." ”

If the orchard loses, then the loss is great.

This is only the cost of contracting, and there must be a lot of investment in the future.

And he was worried, did Ye Feng have so much money?

Regarding Ye Feng's borrowing money to contract for three years, he had faintly heard about it.

He can't let Ye Feng owe it first, if this is really a loss, who wants this money?

"Uncle Song, I've thought about it clearly, fifty years, you calculate how much the contract fee is, and I'll pay it all in one go."

Ye Feng naturally knew what the village chief meant.

"If you contract for 50 years, I can give you a discount, 10,000 per year, and 500,000 for 50 years."

Song Haide said.

"What if that mountain is included?"

Ye Feng asked again.

"What, you're not going to contract even the mountains, are you?"

Song Haide's eyes changed when he looked at Ye Feng.

"Yes, I'm going to expand the orchard."

Ye Feng nodded.

It was part of his plan to make the mountain his own private territory.

"That mountain has a total of nearly 400 acres, and the trees in that forest are all economic trees such as cedar and pine, I can give you a contract price of 8,000 yuan a year, and if it is 50 years, it is 400,000 yuan, plus 450,000 yuan for the orchard, it is 850,000 yuan, which is already the best price."

Song Haide said after calculating on the paper.

"Okay, 850,000, fifty years."

Ye Feng knew that the contract price was not expensive.

In fact, the contracting of mountain forests in rural areas is very cheap, and dozens of yuan per mu can be contracted for one year, mainly because of the large investment in mountain forest transformation in the later stage.

For the village committee of Jinglin Village, it is definitely a happy event to be able to contract out such a piece of mountain forest, which is a big income.

Ye Feng first transferred 100,000 yuan to the account of the village committee through the online bank.

As for the follow-up 750,000, it will wait for the approval of the Land Bureau, and you can settle the bill directly.

Song Haide didn't expect that Ye Feng could really get so much money, which was also amazing.

Of course, he definitely didn't expect that Ye Feng's first pot of gold was earned in the orchard.

After all, the orchard has just started, so he only thinks that Ye Feng is making money through other means.

In any case, contracting out a mountain forest is definitely a political achievement for the village chief Song Haide.

On the way back, Dad Ye Genshen asked, "Fengzi, how much money have you made recently?" ”

There are 300,000 yuan in the passbook, and now Ye Feng has to take out 850,000 yuan to contract the mountains and forests, and the money to build a house, how much does this add up?

"There should be one or two million, and the recent sales of bait are tens of thousands every day, so Dad, you don't need to worry about running out of money, there will only be more and more money in the future."

Ye Feng said very confidently.

His current sales of bait are getting higher and higher day by day, and it is very popular, Zhu Lianbing's mother is still busy with the bait, but the express mail that Zhu Lianbing is responsible for is so busy that he flies, sometimes he doesn't even have time to eat, and he has to be busy until the evening every day.

"Anyway, you must think carefully about yourself, and you can't act hastily."

Dad nodded.

"Dad, don't worry."

Ye Feng said.

The two returned home and told the situation again, but the mother didn't say anything, Ye Feng had lunch and rode straight to Zhenshan on a motorcycle.

In the rental house, Zhu Lianbing was busy.

His mother was cooking.

"Brother Ye, you shouldn't have eaten yet, right?"

Zhu Lianbing hurriedly asked.

"I've eaten it."

Ye Feng smiled: "I'll tell you something, there are too many lists recently, you are too hard to do a favor, I will recruit another one to help you." ”

"Brother Ye, I'm busy alone."

Zhu Lianbing hurriedly said.

"This is not a long-term solution, there will definitely be more lists in the future, and there are many lists, packaging and mailing, it is best to divide labor and cooperate, and the efficiency is higher......"

Ye Feng said: "You have also been doing it for a while, and you already have experience, and you will bring others when the time comes, so I am ready to give you another thousand yuan in salary increase." ”

"Brother Ye, don't increase your salary, I've only been doing it for less than a month."

Zhu Lianbing was a little at a loss.

"Fengzi, the salary you gave us is high enough."

Zhu Lianbing's mother also came out to help.

"Auntie, this is not high, anyway, you just listen to me. You eat first, I still have something to do. ”

Ye Feng waved his hand.

For him now, a salary increase of one or two thousand yuan is nothing, after all, Zhu Lianbing is the first worker under him, so he is naturally treated better.

Moreover, he also thought that he really wanted to help Zhu Lianbing.

Leaving the rental house, Ye Feng went to a print shop, printed some job advertisements, and posted them in all corners of the town.

He was going to recruit a few more people.

In this way, a specific division of labor can be carried out, zuò bait making, bait bagging, packaging and mailing.

The salary he gave was definitely not low in the town, two thousand a month, including food and lodging.

Generally, it is only 1,500 or 6 to work in a supermarket, and at most one lunch is charged
