Chapter Seventy-Eight: Parcel Land

"You want to get the land?"

In the big office of the village committee, the village director was shocked and looked at Cheng Xiao uncertainly.

"You are running a cosmetics factory, contracting greenhouses, contracting fish ponds, so many projects, are you busy?"

"Tell me, what do you want to plant?"

The village chief walked to the window, raised his hand to open the window, and let the breeze blow into the room, bringing a trace of coolness.

After the heat on his body subsided, he didn't come back, leaning on it while blowing the wind and saying, "I remember that your family has thirty acres of land, isn't it enough to plant?" ā€

"Not enough!" Cheng Xiao shook his head.

Her family did have thirty acres of land, her grandfather's ten acres, and her father's ten acres, all inherited by her, plus what she owned, a total of thirty acres.

Before she was admitted to the Kyoto Film Academy, she gave the land under her name to others.

When she and Cheng Yun came back, there was food growing in the field, and they couldn't take it back immediately.

So it was agreed that after the wheat harvest was finished this year, the land would be returned.

But...... It's not enough.

Cheng Xiao sat up straight and said bluntly, "I plan to grow medicinal herbs." ā€

"Herbs?" The village director was even more strange, how could he think of a medicinal herb.

"Yes!" Cheng Xiao nodded.

Seeing the doubts of the village director, he explained: "The cosmetics factory needs medicinal materials, and it is better to grow them yourself than to purchase them from outside." ā€

At present, the main raw material of the cosmetics factory is the peach blossom in the enchantment, but the peach blossom is limited, and the time will come to an end.

Then the search for other main ingredients is imperative.

According to Cheng Xiao's plan for the cosmetics factory, no chemical reagents are added, and only traditional Chinese medicine is used as the main raw material.

Stepping out of Chinese characteristics and creating a national brand is her plan for the future.

The main reason is that the Chinese herbs she purchased are definitely not as good as those she grows herself.

It may not be as effective as she intended.

"That's it......" Listening to Cheng Xiao's words, the village director groaned slightly.

"Growing Chinese herbal medicines takes a long time, the cost is large, and it is not easy!"

"That's it......" The village chief thought for a while: "I will give you a part of the land that belongs to the village committee." ā€

"The price is according to previous years."

"It can also be regarded as supporting the private enterprises in our village." The village director smiled: "Once your cosmetics factory is done and expanded, our village will inevitably follow." ā€

From Cheng Xiao's funding to build roads to Cheng Xiao's cosmetics factory recruiting workers in the village, the village director knew that Cheng Xiao would not forget his origin.

I will not forget the fathers and villagers of Hongxing Village.

Their village needs such people.

"How long are you going to contract?" The village chief asked.

"Ten years!"

After thinking about it, Cheng Xiao said: "First contract for ten years at a time." ā€

"After 10 years, I have the right of first refusal, and as for the price...... Cheng Xiao does not intend to follow what the village chief said.

"I give a thousand for every acre of land."

"In the future, when the price of land rises, I will follow suit."

"A thousand?" The village director exclaimed and shook his head again and again: "This is too much!" ā€

"You weren't in the countryside before, you may not know the land market, this year the situation is good, the land price is high, but it hasn't reached 1,000."

"It only costs seven hundred and two per acre."

"The village can't take advantage of you." The village chief strongly disagreed.

Cheng Xiao frowned, she also had her own considerations for giving this price.

The village committee's land is never planted by itself, but is contracted to the villagers.

Now she wants to take the land in the hands of the villagers, and she must have a reasonable reason.

The price increase is to prevent the village committee and the village director from being embarrassed, and it is also an explanation to the villagers of Hongxing Village, so as to avoid the trouble of ripping off.

"Director, how much land can the village committee give me?" Cheng Xiao asked.

"Fifty acres!"

"Too little!"

Cheng Xiao shook her head: "It's really not enough!" ā€

Think for a moment.

"Please ask the director for me, if anyone in the village doesn't want to plant their land, they can contract it to me."

"I'll take it at a price of 1,000 per mu!"

"All for you? How much land is this! The village director's eyes widened, and he felt that his old heart was a little unbearable.

I thought to myself: Could it be that he is too old to keep up with the development of the times?

Otherwise, why does it always follow Cheng Xiao's words, and his heart trembles and trembles.

"Come on!" The village chief waved his hand: "I can't keep up with the thinking of you young people. ā€

"Do whatever you want!"

"I don't persuade you!"

Hearing this, Cheng Xiao smiled.

The more, of course, the merrier.

She's just too little, not too much.

After all, their family's "Recipe for Longevity" is really suitable for farming.

Two hours later.

Representatives of various households gathered in the village committee, and Cheng Xiao, the representative of the village director, explained her general meaning.

"That's it, 1,000 per mu, a one-time contract for ten years, and after ten years, Cheng Xiao enjoys the right of first refusal."

After speaking, the village director raised his head: "If you have any opinions, you can talk about them and speak freely." ā€

Everyone was silent.

If you contract out the land, you can get rent, but the income is relatively reduced.

In order to support their families, they must go out to work.

After a few moments, someone spoke slowly.

"Director, is ten years too long? How about a pack for a year or three years? ā€

In this way, they do not want to work and can return to the village to farm at any time.

"I'm afraid not!" The village director glanced at Cheng Xiao and shook his head: "Medicinal herbs are different from crops, and the cycle is long and short. ā€

"Some even need to improve the land."

"If it's too short......"

Management is inconvenient, and the gains outweigh the losses.

"In that case, it's going to be difficult!" The villagers hesitated.

There was a lot of discussion.

At this moment, Li Dazhu took the lead in expressing his position: "Director, my family's land is planted for Xiaoxiao." ā€

After speaking, he scratched his head and smiled.

The villagers searched for prestige, but no one spoke, and Li Dazhu's reaction was expected by them.

Who doesn't know that Cheng Xiao has a good relationship with Li Dazhu's family.

Whoever loses it will not lose him.

"I—I agree!"

There was another voice, and when everyone saw it, it was a poplar forest.

"My family has a fish pond and a water depression that has been sold for money," he said. ā€

"Besides, the price given by Xiaoxiao is already very high."

High indeed!

This must be admitted by the villagers of Hongxing Village.

"I do, too!"

"Me too!"

"And my family's land, which is also contracted to Cheng Xiao."

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

With Li Dazhu, Yang Shulin took the lead.

Next, some people agreed to give the land to Cheng Xiao.

Most of these people are contracting out the land, since the price given by Cheng Xiao is high, who is not a bag.

Fifteen minutes passed like this.

There are already about seven or eight people who have expressed their position, and they have more than 30 acres, less than 10 acres, plus 50 acres promised by the village director.

It is more than 200 acres in total.

"Is that enough?" The village chief asked.

Cheng Xiao glanced back and didn't answer, but took a step forward and stood up.

Whispered: "I have another plan......"
