Chapter 229: Ten acres of fertile land
"Can only 'Eastern Immortal Spirit Rice' be planted in these fertile fields?" asked Liu Yu suspiciously.
"That's not it, you can also grow other elixirs, but it will be quite cumbersome to take care of, and there will be a certain amount of risk..."The old man explained politely.
Ninety percent of these 10,000 acres of fertile land have been planted with "East Immortal Spirit Rice", and one percent is planted with various elixirs such as "Green Angelica", "Red Essence", "White Licorice", etc., most of the grades of these elixirs are not high, but the requirements for spiritual power are not high when growing.
First, because although the soil of these 10,000 acres of fertile land contains spiritual power, it is not a spiritual field after all, and there is a lot of risk in planting these elixirs.
Most of the "Tian Fu" are casual cultivators, alone, or the whole family settles in Beiluancheng, and there are only two or three cultivators in the family, and these "Tian Fu" cannot afford this risk.
Although planting these elixirs will earn a few percent more than planting "Eastern Immortal Spirit Rice" after they are mature, most of the "Tianfu" will still choose a safe way and take less risks.
The second reason is that the maturation time of these elixirs is too long, at least four or five years, and at most ten years. Ordinary "field husbands" can't afford to plant at all, because the return on capital is too slow, and they can't afford to pay the rent in advance for so many years.
"Uncle Li, this million acres of fertile land outside Beiluan City, why is this fertile land more special?" Liu Yu couldn't help but ask again.
"Mainly because of this Dongxian Lake, Dongxian Lake is close to the Black and White Mountains, located at the foot of continuous mountains and rivers, and the source of the lake water is mountain springs, trickles, snow water, etc., which contains a lot of spiritual power..."The old man then explained.
It turns out that the large amount of aura contained in the water of Dongxian Lake is close to the aura content of a first-grade spiritual water. This fertile field surrounds Dongxian Lake and is nourished by the lake water all year round, which forms a large area of spiritual power rich in spiritual fields and fertile fields.
These fertile fields, the closer to the Dongxian Lake, the higher the quality, close to the Dongxian Lake is the Lingbing Palace's thousand acres of spiritual fields, more than 2,000 acres of fertile fields in the outer circle, the highest quality is jokingly called the "superior lake field", and then the outward circle of more than 4,000 acres of fertile land is called the "medium lake field", the outermost circle of more than 6,000 acres of fertile land, is the worst "inferior lake field". The old man patiently introduced.
"For different quality of fertile land, the rent charged by Lingbing Palace is also different. The old man said leisurely
"Uncle Li, what is the quality of these twenty acres of fertile land, and what kind of lake field does it belong to?" Liu Yu asked curiously.
"The twenty acres of fertile land you won are close to Dongxian Lake, and the quality is considered "middle and upper-grade", which is considered a good field, congratulations!" the old man said with a smile.
The old man also watched the Spirit Contest last night, and knew that Liu Yu won the third place and won the twenty acres of fertile land, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the future was terrifying, this is really a lot of spirit stones!
"Thank you!" Liu Yu thanked with a smile.
"Old decay, take the liberty of asking, are you going to plant these twenty acres of fertile land by yourself, or do you want to choose to lease it out. The old man spoke.
"In the future, it should be leased out, do you always know how to publish leasing information?" Liu Yu thought for a while and said.
Liu Yu worked in Huang Shengling Village during the day, and only had time at night, plus he had to cultivate, so it was obviously not suitable for him to take care of the twenty acres of fertile land in person, and he could only lease it out.
"There is a jade curtain in the hall of the farmhouse, and you only need to spend some spirit stones to hang the rental information on it, and naturally someone will come to contact you. The old man introduced.
"Oh! I see. Liu Yu suddenly realized.
In the hall of the field house just now, it is no wonder that a group of people gathered, staring at the huge jade curtain hanging on the side wall, and the jade curtain was still scrolling with the information of Liangtian from time to time, which was very convenient.
"Uncle Li, how much do you think the rent of one mu should be set?" Liu Yu asked, the old man had stayed in the Dongxian Lake Farm for many years, and he must be very clear about this aspect.
"Your 20 acres of fertile land is large, even into a piece but not scattered, the quality of the fertile land is not bad, the key is that the lease period is long, and the conditions are good in all aspects. ”
"Ordinary retail investors can't eat it, but those powerful families will definitely be very interested, and the rent can be appropriately raised, the annual rent of one mu is set at thirteen thousand low-grade spirit stones, or even higher. After thinking carefully, the old man touched his long beard and said.
The old man is deep in the doorway, these families rent these twenty acres of fertile land, and they will definitely not be used to plant "Eastern Immortal Spirit Rice", but to plant high-value elixirs, like such a large piece of fertile land, the lease period is as long as five years, which is still rare.
Because the Lingbing Palace strongly opposes the interference of all large and small Xiuzhen families in the fertile land of Dongtian Lake, the interests of the Lingbing Palace to give up these ten thousand acres of fertile land are to leave thousands of scattered cultivators, not to send benefits to these large and small Xiuzhen families. However, the phenomenon of private sublease still occurs from time to time.
Lingbing Palace is very strict in the management of the fertile fields of Dongxian Lake, and in order to prevent the large and small Xiuzhen families from meddling in the fertile fields of Dongtian Lake, there is a complete set of lease regulations.
First, the "farmer" who applies for the lease of fertile land for the first time can only apply for the lease of one acre of fertile land, and the lease period is only one year.
Second, the "field man" who has a good planting record of three years can be the second acre of fertile land earlier, and the lease term will be upgraded to two years.
Third, the lease term of "Tianfu" with a good planting record of more than five years will be upgraded to three years.
Fourth, the lease term of "Tianfu" with a good planting record of more than five years will be upgraded to five years.
The longer the "farmer" has been planted and the higher the credibility, the priority will be given to renewing the contract, and the opportunity to apply for better quality land. After all, there are only so many fertile fields in Dongxian Lake, but there are hundreds of thousands of scattered cultivators living in Beiluancheng, and there are countless new "Tianfu" who come to apply every year, and the competition is very fierce.
If it is found that there are "tianfu" who have subleased privately, the lease term of the existing fertile land will not be renewed, and it will be prohibited to apply for leasing the fertile land again for ten years.
Of course, there is also a small part of fertile land that is a special case, which can be subleased on the bright side, just like the 20 acres of fertile land won by Liu Yu.
"Uncle Li, I know!" Liu Yu thanked with a smile. I couldn't help but be happy in my heart, as soon as these twenty acres of fertile land changed hands, it could bring more than 100,000 low-grade spirit stones every year, which was a huge amount of money, and the spirit stones needed for future cultivation had finally been settled.
"Fellow Daoist, if you choose to lease these twenty acres of fertile land, you are so old that you know some family disciples, and you can help contact them, and they will definitely be able to pay a high price, so I don't know if you mind?" said the old man with a smile.
The old man has been in the Dongxian Lake field house for decades, the door is very wide, Liu Yu's twenty acres of fertile land is fragrant, if he helps one of them to promote the lease, he can get a thank you fee, so the old man will be so attentive, for Liu Yu to introduce so detailed.
"Uncle Li, if it's convenient for you, you can help you contact one or two, thank you very much. Liu Yu replied.
"Well, the old man will spread the news tonight, and I believe that their bid will definitely satisfy the Daoists. The old man said happily.
"Then thank you first, and I'll send you back to Yunyun in the next place! The sect still has some things to deal with in a hurry. Liu Yu said politely.
"Fellow Daoist, you are busy first, don't delay your time, the old man will go back and don't have to send him off. If you have time the day after tomorrow, Daoyou will come again and go to that house to find the old decay, and there should be news. The old man postponed and admonished.
"Got it, Uncle Lee, then please, I'll take my leave first. Liu Yu jumped on the flying sword and said with his hand.
Liu Yu wanted to hurry back to Lingzhuang and leave for a while, if he was discovered by the manager of Lingzhuang, the impact would not be good.
