Chapter 120: Drawing up the contract
Unlike other villages, where some are merchants, some set up small stalls, and some do handicraft work, almost every household in Xiaoliangshan depends on farming for a living, so last year's drought was so painful that there were even several people gone.
Relying only on farming is relying on the sky to eat, and paying taxes all year round, leaving aside what you eat at home, there is nothing left in the end. There is also such a reason why those women can be instigated by Li Lan and Cai Hongyun to raise prices, but the harvest is really limited, and the grain cannot be sold at a high price. If there is a spring return, there must be signs that the life can be better, and the spring return will not be disadvantaged.
"It's difficult, but if there's going to happen like goat's milk, girl, it's no longer a joke. Although I am the head of the village, I want to think about the village, but I also know what kind of virtue some people here are, it is not easy for your family to get up, don't be empty again. ”
The old village chief sighed and said, every sentence was not biased, which made Chungui feel a burst of emotion in his heart.
Li Zheng also understood, knocked on the cigarette gun and shook his head: "Spring return, otherwise you look for the villages next door, Lijia Village, Tianshui Village, Caijia Village, especially Caijia Village, Cai Patriarch is the most fair, and their village must be willing to accept such a good thing as yours." ”
Chungui said helplessly: "Uncle Lizheng, I am from our Xiaoliangshan, how can I ignore my own village and go to find people from other villages." ”
Li Zheng didn't know: "It's this reason, only the previous one, I'm afraid that there will be a second time, and then I really won't have the face to see you." ”
Now there is still harmony on the face, and after that, it will pass, but at that time, no matter how thick the face is, it will have to be torn apart.
For a moment, the room fell silent.
It's just that there is no one in this house who doesn't want to do this good thing, Rao is in this small village, they also know how good the wild fruit is sold through the hands of Chungui, if they become the first village to grow this thing, not to mention the benefits in the future, even Chungui will not lose them, it will be with the business in Kyoto!
If there was no goat's milk in front of him, the old village chief would have woken up laughing from his dreams.
The village chief took a puff of cigarette and looked at Chungui: "Girl, I'll ask you when I rely on the old man to sell the old one, how are you going to negotiate the price of this kind of sweet potato?" ”
Chungui smiled faintly: "Grandpa, I don't want every uncle to take out one or two acres of land at home to plant, you don't know, sweet potatoes are easy to grow, if the villagers should go, as long as two or three pieces of land for ordinary vegetable planting are enough." ”
She looked at the curious looks of the people in the circle, and said slowly: "I'll give one or two pieces of silver for a piece of land." ”
"A tael of silver?!"
As soon as these words fell, several people immediately stood up, and even the village chief looked at her in surprise.
"Girl, are you joking?"
Chungui smiled lightly and shook his head: "It's not a joke, it's true that a piece of land is one tael of silver, and two seasons a year, that is, there are two taels of silver for a piece of land a year." ”
Several people looked at each other and were silent.
You must know that the harvest of an ordinary acre of land in a season is only one or two taels of silver, but the spring return is a small vegetable plot for one or two!
If a family divides three vegetable plots to plant, there will be three taels in one season alone!
"Girl...... You're really not kidding? ”
Chungui laughed out loud: "Grandpa the village chief, I won't laugh with anyone I talk to." ”
She sighed and put it away again: "We all know what the situation in our village is, wouldn't it be better if there was such an opportunity to take a little step forward, so I really don't want to give this opportunity to other villages." ”
The crowd was silent again.
Chungui swept the looks of a group of people, how could they not know that they were all very willing in their hearts, but they were afraid that in case, there would be another time when people were greedy.
She was silent for a long time, and she kept thinking about it in her heart, and after a while, she seemed to think of something, raised her eyes and said quietly: "Village Chief, Uncle Li Zheng." ”
"See if you can do this, I will draw up a contract, which will be witnessed by the two of you at that time, and the contract will be effective, and I can't lose the villagers, and in the same way, in black and white, the villagers can't take advantage of me, and there is no chance to deny it!"
At that time, the matter of goat's milk was a small business, and for the sake of the villagers, writing a contract was also a shame, but this time it was different, the matter of land and grain was a big deal, and the use of the contract was also an additional layer of guarantee.
As soon as these words fell, several elders in the room nodded their heads.
"I think this method is feasible, the villagers see that it is difficult to live up to the contract, if it is really a violation of the contract, the spring girl can ask for the loss of compensation for the violation of the contract, in black and white, no one can rely on it!"
"I also think it's good, the affection of the villagers is also exhausted, it's better to be the same as the business, anyway, if we do well, the spring girl will not treat us badly. Look at our family, and Daddy Li's family, who in this village is not blushing now! ”
A few people, you and I responded one by one, only Li Zheng and the village chief had a smoking gun each, and the smoke was silent for a long time, and the spring return did not disturb them.
After a while, the village chief raised his head and said in a low voice, "Girl, for a while...... Your uncle and I will personally call people, and you will wait at home. ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Zheng, and Li Zheng also nodded.
Chungui sighed in her heart, this is probably going to lecture and beat in person, and talked to these villagers in advance to help her establish a prestige.
She didn't refuse such kindness, and said with a smile: "Then thank the village chief, grandfather, and Uncle Lizheng!" ”
The village chief waved his hand: "If this can be done, it should be me who is the village chief to thank you." ”
Pingbai helps every family in the township to have an extra income, which is to give the whole village a way. He wanted to know how happy the gang would be to hear the news! I'm afraid that I won't be so happy if I lose money from the sky!
Chungui pursed his lips and shook his head: "The village chief and grandfather don't need to say that, I also need it here, not to mention that once the contract is signed, everyone will take what they need, and there is no help or thanks." ”
The village chief took a puff of cigarette, looked at her deeply, and then got up and put his arm on Lizheng's shoulder: "Go!" For the intention of returning to spring, I have to knock on these people! ”
For the irrepressible joy in my heart, and also for the gratitude for the spring return, the village chief and Li Zheng immediately went out, and the soldiers went to call the villagers in two ways.
Chun Gui also hurried back to the Liu family at the entrance of the village, and saw that Cai's was helping her open the window for ventilation, and several children were also playing at the door, she looked around, and walked straight to Xiaobao, who was protecting Zhimin.
"Xiaobao, can you bring pen and ink back? Would it be good to help my aunt write a contract? ”
Qi You Zhixing is not there, and Xiaobao is the most adult-like and hardworking among the few small ones, so he only looks for him when he returns in the spring.
Sure enough, Xiaobao nodded: "I brought it, go get it now!" After speaking, it was as if he knew that Chungui had something important, and walked quickly towards the inside.
When I came, these pen and ink were put together with Zhiping's luggage, and now it is convenient to take it.
Chungui simply followed in.
The study was in the wind, and Cai called the spring return, so he came over and asked, "How is it?" What did the village chief say? ”
After Chungui communicated the general situation to her, Cai's disapproval just now, nodded at this moment and said: "There is a village chief and Li Zheng who are beating together, and there is a contract, even if these people have the courage to turn over the storm!" ”
One said and one wrote, Xiaobao listened and polished himself, and soon a contract was completed.
After Chun Gui took it, he looked at it carefully, and after reading it, he praised Xiaobao with a smile: "Not to mention the smoothness of this writing, even our Xiaobao's handwriting ordinary people can't catch up!" ”
Xiaobao only pursed his lips and smiled lightly when he heard the praise, his temperament is so introverted, he looks thinner than in previous years, and his appearance is gradually growing.
Cai's didn't use this word, but when he heard Chungui praise his own boy, he couldn't be happier.
Chun Gui took the contract into his arms and patted Xiaobao: "Xiaobao and Minmin will play with their gifts!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaobao saluted and ran out, and from a distance, he stood still next to Zhimin, and stretched out his hand to protect Zhimin, who was standing on a stone and picking wild fruits from a high place.
Chungui looked at it and raised his eyebrows unconsciously, and called Cai's to come and see: "Look, these two are good?" ”
Cai's looked at his own kid as if he was looking at a mirror, and couldn't help laughing: "This kid has loved to make up for Min Min since he was a child, I think it's better for Min Min to change his mouth if he is older!" ”
After speaking, he glanced at Chungui: "I said you, it's funny to have a few children, and then the two of us will be a generation behind!" ”
"You said that if there is really this day, Min Min should call you mother or sister, if this Xiaobao calls me sister-in-law with Min Min, I won't have to call you aunt?" Chungui also laughed, and the two laughed while sweeping the house.
After cleaning the house, Geng Rong had already started fishing in the pool in front of the house, and several children had also played for a while.
And in the whole village, there are already people who can't help but come here with joy one after another.
When I met a villager on the road, I couldn't hold back a smile on my face, I wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, so I could only rush to Liu's house with bumpy steps.
To say that the happiest are those who have bought goat's milk before, although the village chief and Li Zheng beat for a while, but they still can't hold back the excitement in their hearts.
This front foot thought that he had missed a good business, and the back foot Chungui had already sent another one with kindness! All the way, I chanted the Buddha.
Wave after wave of people walked here, and those who walked to the entrance of the village in advance did not dare to enter rashly, and watched from a distance on the edge of the tree at the entrance of the village, for fear of disturbing the spring return.
Now that Chungui is shining in their eyes, they are afraid that if they annoy her with an inappropriate move, they will be like the goat milk business in front of them, and they will be cut off immediately!
So a few children in front of the house saw more and more people standing at the door of their houses, more and more, but they were all cautious, and several children were puzzled, only Xiaobao knew it, but he didn't pay attention to them.
It wasn't until Li Zheng knocked on the last few families with the village chief that he also rushed to Liu's house, and after breaking through the crowd and entering the door, after a while, Chun Gui came out of the house with a piece of paper in his hand and a light smile.
