After Wei Ruo left, Shi Dayou asked the villagers to go back to work in the fields, and he returned home with a hoe.

The contracting thing that Xu Gongzi told him just now is his top priority at the moment.

After returning home, Shi Dayou called several prestigious old people in the village to his home, described with them in detail about the cooperation with Xu Gongzi, and consulted their opinions.

Several elders are very supportive of this, and there is no stipulation on how much rent to pay, only half of the rent is paid, and they naturally have to take over such things as making money without losing money.

And there is already a surplus of labor force in their village, if they can twist it together and do something else, maybe everyone will be able to have a prosperous year this year!

The elders have explained to Shi Dayou, let him treat Xu Heyou well, the people in their village have no other skills and livelihoods, and they don't know how to deal with people in the city to make money, now someone is willing to pull them and give them a way to live, they must grasp and cherish it.

With the approval of the elders in the village, Shi Dayou then sent a message back to Wei Ruo.

Wei Ruo did not delay, after all, time waits for no one, and the land in spring waits for no one, so it has to be cultivated and planted immediately.

So Wei Ruo immediately signed a relevant contract with the people of Stone Village.

On the day of the signing, Shi Dayou took the selected people to work on the sandy land purchased by Wei Ruo.

In the selection of personnel, Shi Dayou also took into account many factors, the first principle is voluntary, some people have little labor at home, and their own fields are too busy to work, so naturally they can no longer take care of other work.

However, some families have less land and more brothers, so they are eager to win this new opportunity to earn money.

On the basis of everyone's voluntary registration, Shi Dayou and several village elders worked together to do some coordination: for example, if there are three applicants in the family, one or two places are generally given according to the family situation, and strive to distribute as many places as evenly as possible.

However, because the surprise situation is still relatively large, it will definitely not be able to achieve a complete average.

Fortunately, with Shi Dayou, the village head, and the elders of the village presiding over the overall situation, the villagers are quite satisfied with the final result.

After that, the villagers went to the large sandy land that Wei Ruo had bought and began to work: weeding, clearing stones, turning the soil, and applying fertilizer properly.

Wei Ruo took the matter of late rice planting to heart, and after two days, after calculating many factors, Wei Ruo asked people to go to the village where she was trapped by the evil seedling disease to publicize that she had late rice seeds in her hands, and even if it was too late to sow seeds and raise seedlings now.

After hearing the news, the villagers rushed to Wei Ruo's Zhuangzi.

Outside Wei Ruo's Zhuangzi gate, there were several bulging sacks piled up on the ground outside the wall, and there were still people moving sacks out of the Zhuangzi at the moment.

The first few villagers to arrive saw the sacks, and their eyes lit up, and they guessed that the sacks contained the late rice seeds they wanted.

However, the seven or eight tall and sturdy men standing next to these sacks made them dare not step forward easily.

At this time, Wei Ruo came out of the Zhuangzi, and several villagers couldn't help but gather around to ask.

"Xu Gongzi, I heard that you have rice seeds here that can be sown and live, is it true?" An old man asked Wei Ruo carefully. ….

Wei Ruo looked at the old man a little familiar, and after thinking for a while, she remembered that she met when she went to Mrs. Xu's farm, she persuaded the other party to change the seedlings, and the other party said that she was cursing them.

It was also the only time Wei Ruo reminded the farmers of this matter as Wei Qingruo, and when he went to other villages to remind others later, Wei Ruo used Xu Heyou's identity.

Therefore, the old man did not know that the person in front of him was the person he hated and cursed that day.

But it doesn't make a difference whether you know it or not, Wei Ruo didn't plan to settle accounts with anyone, and treated all the people who came today equally.

"It's true." Wei Ruo replied in the affirmative.

Hearing the affirmative answer, several people were overjoyed.

Then they showed tangled expressions and hesitated for a while

The old man cautiously asked Wei Ruo:

"Gongzi Xu, can you give us this rice seed?"

"Want rice seeds?" Wei Ruo looked at the few people in front of him.

Several people nodded hurriedly.

"Rice seeds are sold, not given away for free." Wei Ruo said.

"Sell?"

Hearing the request for money, the light in the eyes of several people instantly dimmed.

Several people looked at each other a few times, and then the old man continued to ask Wei Ruo about the price: "Young Master Xu, how can this rice seed be sold?"

"Ten pennies and one pound." Wei Ruo replied.

This is the original price of these rice seeds, Wei Ruo did not deliberately raise the price, and Wei Ruo sold it to the Yun family at this price before.

As a rice seed, millet is carefully selected, with full grains and excellent quality, which is naturally slightly more expensive than ordinary millet.

And even the ordinary millet produced by these rice seeds will be sold for a hundred wen a bucket in Wei Ruo's Xu Ji grain shop after being husked.

However, hearing this answer, the faces of several people in front of Wei Ruo changed.

"Master Xu, you're selling it too expensive!" The old man looked annoyed, "The husked rice is only a few pennies a catty, how can you buy ten wen for your rice seeds?"

One acre of land requires three or five catties of rice seeds, and if the average person has three or five acres of land, this rice seed will cost as much as ninety.

This cost is now unaffordable for many farmers, everyone has had a hard time in the past two years, the family is about to be unable to open the pot, and the seedlings that have just died have cost them a lot of money, where can they take out so much money to buy this rice seed.

Several others also chimed in:

"Yes, Xu Gongzi, you are too expensive, how can you sell such expensive rice seeds?"

"Besides, what if your rice cultivation is not good and you still can't harvest it this year?"

"That is, you said that this is a late rice seed, and late planting can also be profitable, but we don't know if it's true."

Wei Ruo said unhurriedly: "It doesn't matter if you can't afford it, I have a second solution, you sign a note with me, you can take the rice seeds for free, take as much as you need, and when the autumn harvest comes, according to the amount taken, just return five times the amount of rice."

"For example, if you take ten catties of rice seeds from me, and return fifty catties of rice to me when the autumn harvest comes. Of course, if my late rice seeds are useless and I can't plant them in time for the autumn harvest, I don't need to be paid anything."

Wei Ruo's late rice seed is three catties of seeds planted one acre, and Wei Ruo's rice seed is twice as high as the yield per mu of ordinary rice they plant, generally speaking, the yield per mu can reach about two thousand catties, and the specific value will be affected by other objective factors such as weather, water and fertilizer of the year.

Therefore, the fee charged by Wei Ruo is fifteen catties out of these two thousand catties.
