The Cheng family of Hongxing Village.

After Cheng Xiao glanced at it, she threw away her phone and looked at Donald Duck scratching her ears and cheeks in front of her.

"What do you want to do?"

"Gah! Ga! Donald Duck squawked twice.

Duckpaw pointed to the TV, which was playing a TV series that was very popular many years ago, called Full House.

"Want to watch TV?" Cheng Xiao raised his hand and handed over the remote control.

"Ga~" Donald Duck shook his head.

The two duck paws are closed and placed on the side of the duck's face, with the duck's eyes closed and the head tilted.

Cheng Xiao understood in seconds: "Want to sleep? Want a bed? ”

"Ga~" Donald Duck shook his head again and pointed to the room in front of him.

"You want a house?" Cheng Xiao raised her eyes.

Donald Duck nodded wildly: "Yes!" ”

Duck, I want a room of my own, Duck doesn't want a warehouse anymore!

Donald Duck's black eyes, looking at Cheng Xiao pitifully, sold miserably!

"Tomorrow!"

Cheng Xiao frowned, the smart duck was really troublesome.

"I'll cover it for you tomorrow."

"Gah! Ga! Donald Duck was happy.

Jumping with excitement, every time I landed, there was a thumping sound.

Cheng Xiao's dark eyes stared at the floor tiles at home, reached out and grabbed it, pushed open the door, and threw Donald Duck out in an instant, and said at the same time: "You want to jump outside!" ”

Soon, there was another thumping sound in the yard.

Cheng Xiao glanced at it and left the house directly.

After finding two carpentry masters in the village, and agreeing to come to her house tomorrow to make a duckling nest for Donald Duck, he went straight to the village committee.

As soon as she arrived at the door, a figure appeared in front of Cheng Xiao and blocked her way.

"Is there something wrong?" Cheng Xiao looked at the comer.

This man she knew.

It was Zhou Tiancheng's father, who stole fertilizer, who was in his sixties, short, hunchbacked, and skinny.

A pair of eyes are deeply sunken, the face is wrinkled, and the cloudy eyes are the traces of being destroyed by the years.

"I want to sell land." Father Zhou's eyes were full of helplessness.

"I heard that you took over the land, so I came over and asked if you still want it?"

"Yes!" Cheng Xiao nodded, the more the better.

"Grandpa Zhou, there is something I want to make clear to you, I have a one-time contract for ten years, if you think it's okay, let's go to the village committee to sign a contract."

"I—I don't ......"

Father Zhou waved his hand again and again: "I didn't mean that, I wanted to sell the land at one time." ”

Selling land?

That's weird!

The elderly in rural areas do not have pension insurance, and land is their only source of livelihood, and it is also a guarantee for their old age.

The son was not angry, and sold the land again, and that day was ......

"How much are you going to sell?" Cheng Xiao asked.

Father Zhou trembled and stretched out two fingers and crossed them: "Ten acres!" ”

"I have ten acres of land, sell them all to you, Xiaoxiao, see how much money you can give me?"

"Is it at the foot of the mountain or in the middle of the village?"

"In the middle, it's all good land."

Cheng Xiao calculated: "If you buy out ten acres of land at one time, the price will be about 210,000. ”

This is calculated by Cheng Xiao according to 721 acres of land.

"If Grandpa Zhou rents the land to me, I can give 1,000 per mu like other villagers."

"A thousand?"

Father Zhou crossed his fingers and calculated, it must be more suitable to rent than to sell, and the selling price is much lower.

It's like wholesale and retail, selling land is wholesale, and renting land is retail.

"No way!" Father Zhou shook his head.

You can only get 100,000 yuan for ten years of contracting, and this money is far from enough.

Father Zhou's expression was entangled, frowning for a while and sighing for a while, very reluctant, and it seemed that he had to do it.

Finally, after several struggles, he clenched his hands and made up his mind: "Sell!" Just at the price you say. ”

"Okay, then we'll ......"

"No way!"

Before Cheng Xiao finished speaking, he was interrupted by another voice.

The village director strode over, looked at Father Zhou and said solemnly: "No, this land can't be sold." ”

"Both of you are not in good health, you have to live, you have to take injections and medicine, you have sold your land, what do you expect to live."

Father Zhou pushed away the village director and smiled sadly.

"Don't worry about this, if you can't get by, our old couple will go to the city to ask for food."

"No matter how bad it is, I will buy a rope and hang it, and it will be a hundred."

"It is said that it is the fault of not raising a godfather, Zhou Tiancheng, a rabbit cub, he doesn't learn well, and he steals and sells fertilizer in the village, I must pay him back this money, otherwise I won't be able to sleep in peace."

Father Zhou's withered hands were clenched into fists, beating his chest fiercely, his expression was distressed, and he blamed himself.

"He's him, you're you."

The village chief shook his head: "It's impossible for the village to drive you two to a dead end for that little money." ”

"Now that the police have filed a case and wanted Zhou Tiancheng, as long as he is arrested, the money can be recovered."

"Even if he can't get it back, he should pay it back."

"What you have to do is to cooperate with the police and catch him as soon as possible, and you must not cover him up, otherwise you will obstruct official business and harm others and yourself."

“……”

Cheng Xiao stood aside, listened to the conversation between the village director and Zhou's father, and understood in his heart.

Zhou's father is ready to sell the land he used to retire and repay the money for fertilizer for his son.

And the village director didn't want Father Zhou to do this, he didn't want to push people too hard.

First, there is friendship with the same village, and second, I don't want the village committee to be infamous for persecuting the elderly.

Each has its own considerations, all of which are true, but the only fault is ...... Zhou Tiancheng!

"What about Zhou Tiancheng's land?" Cheng Xiao asked.

Even if it is to be sold, it should be sold to the land under Zhou Tiancheng's fame.

Or after Zhou Tiancheng escaped, the village committee should directly detain the land in Zhou Tiancheng's hands to recover the loss of fertilizer.

"How can that little king and eight calves still have land!" Father Zhou spat fiercely.

"In the early years, I lost money and sold my land."

"If it weren't for the strict control of the land in my hand, and I hadn't been coaxed by him, I guess I would have to be out of place at this time, and what would I take back to the village at that time."

Father Zhou sighed again and again: "It's not terrible to be poor, what is terrible is that there is an unfilial son in the family, and the poor are also ruined." ”

So that's it......

Cheng Xiao thought, no wonder Zhou's father wanted to sell the land, it turned out that Zhou Tiancheng's land had already been lost.

Cheng Xiao glanced at the embarrassed village director, and Zhou's father, whose eyebrows were twisted into a ball, and his face was entangled, and suggested: "In fact, debts can also be paid in installments, and it doesn't necessarily have to be paid off with 200,000 yuan at once. ”

"That's a good way!"

The village director's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he instantly considered a feasible plan.

"If you insist on repaying Zhou Tiancheng's debts, then just like that, sell eight acres of land to Cheng Xiao, and you can use the remaining two acres to buy shares in the cosmetics factory."

"If the benefit is good, the dividend money may be able to buy rice and noodles for your old couple, but if the benefit is not good...... Two acres of land is not a good thing. ”

There are many villagers in the village who have invested in one or two acres of land. This not only supports Cheng Xiao, but also does not count as a gamble, leaving a way out for himself.
