Chapter 149: Developing Gezhuang Village
"Ladies and gentlemen, what are you going to do here?"
Seeing that more than 400 soldiers suddenly came to their village, Gezhuang Village Baoge School hurriedly led many villagers to meet them, and asked with some sincere fear.
"Brother Ge, don't be afraid, we just need to mine something on that cultivated land, don't worry, I will compensate you for your losses......
Okay, Brother Ge, tell me, who rented the crops in that field? Who owns the land? ”
Liu Huayun came out of the crowd, pointed to the low-lying miscellaneous grain field behind him with a faint smile, and said to them.
In the area he needs, most of the crops such as rice, peanuts, sorghum, lentils, and soybeans are planted, which should be spring seedlings, and the growth of green oil is not bad at the moment.
"Childe, it's you."
Before Ge Xiao could speak, the old man beside him, dressed in sackcloth and tired of wrinkles, had spoken in surprise;
At the same time, several people who had seen Liu Huayun and Gao Cheng enter the village a few days ago recognized the two of them.
"My husband has good eyesight, it's me, you can call me Liu Huayun."
If an oil well can really be drilled in Gezhuang Village, this village will be built into an industrial park in the future, and it will inevitably require the cooperation of the villagers.
"Childe, the green seedlings in that field include Ge Da, Wu Er, Ge Gou's family, and the old man's family......
Among them, the five acres of land of the old man's family and the three acres of thin land of Wei Hai's family are purchased permanently, and others are rented from Xia Yuan's family, I don't know how much silver taels can you compensate if you want to occupy it? ”
The old man surnamed Li, in Gezhuang Village, is a general foreigner who belongs to the door-to-door son-in-law, when he was young, he went to the village to make some silver taels as a merchant, and later he and his wife Liu Fen Wang Ba saw mung beans in the eyes, so they bought land and settled down;
These five acres of land are his family's rations, and they are also the basis for the future life of a few families.
"Well, we only need to use a few dozen acres at first, you come with me;
I will designate a general area, the destroyed seedlings will be compensated according to the price of the grain after the harvest, if it occupies the field of Uncle Li's family, it will be compensated to you according to the market price of the land;
In addition, you can rest assured that Xiaosheng will not only exempt you from the land transfer tax of five taels of silver, but also give priority to your eldest brother and sister-in-law to work in it after the factory is built......"
In those years, transportation was inconvenient, so Liu Huayun decided to build an oil refinery, a crude oil processing plant for refining ethylene and propylene, and a tractor factory that might be built in the future.
There will be more and more people who need to be compensated, and with the experience of his previous life, he will not be kind enough to raise the price of land.
"In this way, Childe, what you said about the salary of eight cents a month to two taels of silver is true?"
"And this good thing, Childe, I am willing to sell the land to you......"
"Yes, Childe, can we all go to your factory and do something?"
In these years, the common people were bullied and scared by the powerful, and I heard that Liu Huayun was not only not forcibly recruited, but in addition to the reward according to the price, he could also provide a super high salary every month;
At the same time as Old Man Li's eyes lit up, the surrounding villagers also began to inquire about it.
"Yes, but you won't need too many people in the early stage, but don't worry, two years at most, as long as you want you, all the middle-aged people in your village can have a good job that others envy......"
While laughing, Liu Huayun, accompanied by the middle-aged Di Baoge School, came to the area he fancied.
"Lord Liu, grass folk Xia Yunfa is so polite."
I heard that my own field was favored by the official from Jinan, what oil to mine and what factory to open;
Outside the fair-faced and well-fated Xia Dayuan, accompanied by a shrewd housekeeper, quickly caught up with Liu Huayun.
"Oh, Brother Xia, you came just in time, this area is your family's fertile land."
Liu Huayun glanced at the white and rich middle-aged man, and saw that he was very humble, so he was also very polite to him.
"Yes, it's the little old man's family, don't worry, if you like it, even if you use it, I won't charge any silver taels; In addition, the rooms of the little old man's house are clean and tidy, and I hope you can condescend to ......"
Xia Yunfa was much more shrewd than Zhou Chunfu in Xinghuaying Village outside Kaifeng City, he glanced at Gao Cheng, who had full cheekbones, and four hundred young and strong soldiers such as Xie Yuan and Shishi, and said with a fat smile.
"Yes, yes, you don't know, my lord is kind and charitable, and he is famous in Gezhuang Village, so you can just go to live at home......"
Ge Fu, the housekeeper on the other side, also spared no effort to explain, as if he was afraid that others would not know.
I think Xia Yunfa's reputation in Gezhuang Village is not bad, and many people, including Old Man Li and Dibao Gexiao, nodded to him with a smile.
"Since Xia Yuanwai is like this, Xiaosheng is very warm, and he will inevitably be disturbed in the future."
At the beginning, Xie Yuan and others had to set up camp outside Gezhuang Village, and they could only end their life of sleeping in the open after the cement was fired and the factory was built;
Liu Huayun wants to supervise and guide Ma Liang, Zhang Falin and others to smelt and make drill bits, weld iron frames, etc., since he wants to stay in Gezhuang Village and have a comfortable place to eat and live, of course he will not refuse.
"Liu Gongzi, next time I use the old man's field, I will definitely be obliged."
After comparing and selecting, and letting Xie Yuan's subordinates dig and check, the more than 20 acres of land selected by Liu Huayun were all from Xia Yuan's family, Old Man Li was a little lucky, but after Liu Huayun insisted on giving compensation, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, if you can really dig an oil well in your village, this square piece of land will have to build factories in the future."
The extract of crude oil can not only make ethylene for synthetic plastics, but also make industrial fertilizers.
It was not early today, and when Xie Yuan and Shi arranged for people to level the land and set up camp, Liu Huayun, who compensated dozens of taels of silver to the tenants, took Gao Cheng, Liu Quankui and others into Gezhuang Village.
Of course, the cart and its generators, electric motors, and steel...... They will first put it in the camp tent, and then they will start to choose a place early tomorrow morning, build a cave for firing cement, install a generator, weld a derrick, and so on.
Xia Yuanwai's house is in the north of Gezhuang Village, and the rich side covers a large area, and the elegant courtyard where he arranged for Liu Huayun to live has no less than seven or eight houses, which is enough for more than ten of them to live.
"Brother Xia, you can take the six hundred taels of silver, and the excess will be regarded as our food and accommodation expenses here."
The white middle-aged man in front of him was quite bold, and Liu Huayun was not a stingy person, and after seeing the room and being very satisfied, he took out a few silver tickets from his arms and handed them over.
In fact, more than 20 acres of cultivated land are not all fertile land worth more than a dozen taels of silver, 300 taels of silver is enough, but Liu Huayun and others have to live here for at least a few months, and the daily food and drink is not a small number.
