Chapter 130: Distributing Seeds
"Village Chief, you're polite. Everyone is from the same village, and if they can help, they will help. Gu Anning smiled lightly.
However, her words moved the village chief on the side to tears.
"An Ning, your heart is so good."
Hearing the village chief's words, Gu Anning secretly complained in her heart. If you let him know that he is very hot, I don't know if he will say that.
The two did not talk much, and when the village chief got the happy news, he immediately ordered all the people in the village to gather in the open space square where the meeting was held.
Afterwards, the village chief and Gu Anning went directly to the open space where the village meeting was held.
After waiting for a long time, all the people in the village gathered in the square.
They didn't know anything, they only knew that the village chief had something to say.
Now that they came to the open space in the village, they not only saw the village chief, but also Gu Anning standing beside him.
Seeing that Gu Anning also appeared beside the village chief, they were a little confused.
Could it be that today's announcement by the village chief is related to An Ning beside him?
The people below were speculating.
"Everybody's quiet."
Hearing the constant sound of talking from below, the village chief also spoke up to silence them.
The people in the village also respected him as the village chief, and they all stopped talking after hearing his words, and they all looked up at the two village chiefs standing on a small platform set up in front of them.
Seeing that everyone was quiet, the village chief with a serious face also spoke, "Villagers, I have summoned you here today to have a very important thing to tell you. This is an important matter for the rest of your life. Now you're going to have to listen carefully. ”
Everyone listened and knew the importance of this matter, and they all calmed down and listened carefully to the above words.
"Everyone, tell me if you want to make money?"
"Yes."
Listening to the village chief's words, the people below echoed one after another.
Now the village chief on the small platform saw it, and then said, "Yes, that's right." ”
As he spoke, he poured out two things from the cloth bag in his hand and held them high in front of everyone.
"These two things are called chili pepper and Sichuan pepper, and they are a kind of medicinal herb, and the ann lime next to me buys this sun-dried medicinal herb at a high price of forty yuan per catty.
As for the seeds, Anning will provide them to everyone. If you want to plant it, you can go to An Ning's house to pick it up in a while.
Of course, this is liberal.
Whether you want to take advantage of this opportunity or not is up to you. ”
The people below looked at the things in the village chief's hand with wide eyes, and their hearts were shocked, followed by a deep joy.
Forty dollars a pound of dried things, those twenty-five pounds are one tael of silver, which is great!
"An Ning, do you really want to buy these things for forty yuan a catty?" Some people asked incredulously.
Gu Anning, who was standing beside the village chief, nodded and said, "Naturally, it's true." However, if I want to plant, I have one more request.
As long as you agree, you can come to me and get seeds to plant. ”
"What request, what request?"
Someone covered their excitement and couldn't wait to say, and the rest of the people also set their eyes on Gu Anning.
When Gu Anning heard this, she then said with a straight face: "You need to sign a cooperation document, and there are three provisions in the document.
First, since the signing of the paperwork, the two medicinal materials planted cannot be taken out and sold privately.
Second, it is not allowed to give seeds to outsiders outside the village for planting without permission, even if it is your own family or relatives' family, and the scope is limited to the village.
3. Those who violate the above two treaties shall pay liquidated damages of 3,000 taels.
In other words, as long as you violate the above two rules, you will have to pay a penalty of 3,000 taels of silver. ”
After hearing these treaties, some villagers thought about it, and the villagers directly agreed.
However, in the end, all the people in the village excitedly agreed.
"Okay, we can all abide by these rules."
"You have figured it out, and when you come to get the seeds, you have to sign the paperwork."
For this, everyone naturally has no problem. These rules are easy to follow, just keep your heart.
Next, Gu Anning explained to them how to plant and other issues.
After the meeting was dispersed, Gu Anning went home directly.
After returning home, Gu Anning took out a large piece of paper, and then wrote her three clauses on the top of the paper.
The empty space below was used to sign the villagers' signatures and imprint their handprints.
As soon as these were prepared, many villagers had already gathered in the courtyard.
Gu Anning took out the two large bags of seeds, and then ordered Qiu Ling to bring a long and large table, and she put the big piece of paper and pen, ink, paper and inkstone on it, and pressed it with something.
On the other side of the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Gu Anning also put a large stack of white paper.
Most of the villagers don't know how to write their names. For the legitimacy of the contract, Gu Anning ordered Qiuyue to teach those villagers who couldn't write their names to write for a while.
They study temporarily, and it doesn't matter if the writing is ugly.
After putting all the things on the table, Gu Anning said to everyone in the courtyard: "You all line up well, and those who can write will come first to receive the seeds." ”
It doesn't matter who comes first or second, anyway, the seeds will be in their hands.
According to her request, many villagers lined up in order.
The first villager stepped forward, and Gu Anning said, "Sign and print your thumb first, and then come to collect the seeds." ”
The literate villager looked at the large piece of white paper next to him, and then saw the regulations written on the white paper, and then picked up a brush and wrote his name carefully under the regulations.
Writing his name, he pressed the ink with his thumb again, and then printed it on top of his name.
Seeing that he had signed his name and handprint, Gu Anning said, "Did you bring a bag?" ”
The villager was obviously stunned, and she didn't expect to bring the bag, so she shook her head.
He pulled up the hem of his robe, revealing a pocket in the middle.
Gu Anning gave him half a catty of each seed, and then let him go first.
After the man left, the other stepped forward. With the previous man as an example, he went to the table, picked up a brush, wrote down his name, and then printed his fingerprints.
One by one, they were in order, and when the people who knew how to read and wrote had received the seeds and left, then there were those who did not know how to read.
By the time the villagers finished distributing these seeds, it was already late in the afternoon. Even the village chief took a copy and left.
