I was suddenly so excited.

He raised his eyes to look at his daughter, and Xu Qingzhi nodded slightly.

In fact, for Xu Qingzhi, it is easier to take care of everything.

It would be easier to manage if she could rent an entire mountain, so that her spiritual energy formation could directly cover the entire mountain.

In case others see that her family is making money, they will also rush to lease the remaining mountains, so that she won’t have to argue with others.

It is quite normal for people in the village to quarrel over a piece of land.

The entire mountain covers an area of ​​more than 400 acres, and excluding the Xu family’s own area, there are almost 400 acres in total.

Xu Qingzhi calculated that one acre was 300 yuan, so a 400-acre mountain would cost 120,000 yuan a year. Plus the flat land at the bottom of the mountain, which was about 80 acres, costing 500 yuan per acre, that would be 40,000 yuan a year.

This all-inclusive package, excluding subsidies, amounts to 160,000 yuan a year.

The contract was for seventy years and was eventually signed in the name of Xu Qingzhi, so she did not have to pay the full amount in one go. Xu Qingzhi gave all the money she had to her father, and paid for the ten years together.

It’s not that I’m unwilling to give more, I just don’t have that much money.

The remaining tens of thousands of yuan, plus the money earned from selling vegetables later, will be used to plan for reclaiming wasteland in the mountains.

Wang Yanmei wanted to rent the whole mountain, but she couldn't help feeling a little sad about giving out the money, as she felt that the money was being spent before she even had time to warm it up in her hands.

Xu Qingzhi saw through it, patted her mother on the shoulder, and gave her some poisonous chicken soup: "You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child."

The village chief gasped when he saw the Xu family take out more than one million yuan in one go. It seems that the Xu family really wants to farm.

He immediately beat drums and gongs and called on every household in the village to send representatives to the meeting and sign to confirm.

Finally, the Xu family gave a box of milk, a basket of eggs and fresh vegetables as a thank you.

The Xu family will no longer have to worry about the subsequent public announcements or procedures.

This mountain is considered to be booked.

At first, the villagers didn't believe that it was that fool Xu Fuqiang who contracted the mountain, until they heard from the village chief that the Xu family paid more than one million yuan in one go to contract the mountain.

Some people feel envious.

Some people think that the Xu family is crazy. They have money but they don’t want to go to the city, but insist on farming in the mountains.

The aunts who were not selected for the Xu family's regular vegetable picking last time felt that they had another chance! They only hoped that the Xu family would make money and become bigger in the future, so that they could have a chance to make money right at their doorstep.

Xu Qingzhi also knew that her mother had asked someone to pick vegetables regularly, and the people had been decided: Aunt Zhou, Xia Liannan, and Aunt Ma.

All three of them are honest and hardworking people, and they won't do anything dishonest.

The daily work is to pick vegetables, and each person takes turns to clean and feed the chickens and ducks.

Wang Yanmei originally wanted to pay 4,000 yuan a month, but it was rare to find such an easy job with a fixed salary right next to home, so the three people refused and finally agreed to 3,000 yuan.

Xu Qingzhi lay on a recliner under the persimmon tree, took out her cell phone, opened WeChat, quickly flipped through it, made a count of today's orders, and handed it to her mother.

Wang Yanmei skillfully arranged which vegetables to pick and their approximate weight, and then went to cook dinner.

Now that he had recruited someone, Xu Qingzhi had a lot of free time.

She made a cup of chrysanthemum tea and lay comfortably in the chair.

The sky was still bright at this moment, but a crescent moon was already hanging above the hill.

Wen Shanshan held the phone in her hand, hesitated for a while and asked, "Qingzhi, my dad's friend wants to buy the lavender essential oil you gave me last time. The price he offered is not low, he is willing to pay 100,000 per bottle, do you want to consider it?"

Xu Qingzhi put down the chrysanthemum tea, a sweet fragrance returned to his mouth, and he said calmly: "I don't plan to sell it."

There is no lavender in the village, so if the lavender essential oil is produced continuously, it will be exposed.

She didn't need to take any risks.

Wen Shanshan asked seriously, "Are you really not selling it?"

One hundred thousand per bottle, it's a great opportunity to make money.

Xu Qingzhi nodded, "Not for sale."

Wen Shanshan said regretfully: "Then I'll explain it to my dad."

This afternoon, Wen Xiong called to ask specifically about this matter.

But Qingzhi was busy with the matter of renting the mountain, so she didn't want to disturb Qingzhi. She waited until Qingzhi was less busy before asking.

She sat on a chair nearby and sent a WeChat message to her father, telling him that lavender essential oil was not for sale.

When Wen Xiong saw the message on his phone, his eyes darkened.

Not selling?

With such a good opportunity to make money, why didn’t the landlord’s daughter sell it?

Although it was hard to believe, Wen Xiong still told the bosses the truth. Eventually, several people found the bottle and divided up what was left of Wen Xiong before they gave up.

Wen Xiong went out with a bottle of lavender essential oil and returned home holding the empty bottle.

He could only cry and call his beloved daughter, "Shanshan, my dearest daughter, are you really not selling the essential oil? I had one bottle left, and those bastards took it all."

Not to mention the tone, it even had a hint of grievance.

"I really don't want to sell it. Hey, don't ask anymore." Wen Shanshan refused directly.

If Qingzhi said she didn't want to sell it, then she wouldn't sell it. She wouldn't make things difficult for Qingzhi.

Hang up the phone.

Wen Shanshan drank the chrysanthemum tea that Qingzhi made for her, "Mm, Qingzhi, this chrysanthemum tea is really fragrant."

Xu Qingzhi: ...

Wen Xiong, who was far away in Kyoto, looked at the hung phone in his hand.

Wen Xiong: It’s a leaky little cotton jacket, that’s for sure.

After picking the vegetables, Xu Qingzhi prepared the order and shipped it. He took out all the lavender essential oil in the space warehouse. There were not many, just ten bottles. He packed them together and sent them by express to Kyoto.

After dinner, Xu Qingzhi went upstairs to wash up, sent a message to Wen Shanshan about the essential oils, and then entered the spiritual space.

Xu Qingzhi took a look around.

The magical spring water was brought into the fields, creating the most suitable soil for growing rice.

She would wait until the rice at home was harvested after a while, and then she would smuggle some in to use as seeds.

The piglets were sleeping soundly.

The chickens and ducks also grow very fast.

With a wave of her hand, she planted the remaining saplings in the cleared land.

"Caw~" Master, this crow is hungry.

A crow fluttered over from a long distance, landed on Xu Qingzhi's shoulder, and cawed weakly.

"Meow~" Master, what are we having for dinner tonight? The two little ones have been exploring the spiritual space these days, and their diligence index is five stars.

Xu Qingzhi saw it and patted the bald man and the big cat on the head, "I'll make something delicious for you tonight."

The two little ones like spicy food, just like her.

Nowadays, there are all kinds of pots and stoves, making it very convenient to cook any dish.

She brought over two chickens and two ducks, plucked the feathers and cleaned them, then went to the vegetable garden to pick peppers and other ingredients.

After the marinade for the duck is ready, two whole ducks are put into the pot to marinate, and the tea leaves smuggled from home are brewed.

Chop the chicken into pieces, heat up some oil, fry the chicken pieces until crispy and tender, then add in chili peppers and a small amount of spices.

Xu Qingzhi picked up the pot and turned it over quickly. The flame under the pot suddenly jumped out of the pot, flickering with the rhythm of the shaking.

The rising flames made the two little ones scream with joy.

"Ga ga ga~" Wow, the master is so awesome! It smells so good.

"Meow~" Master is great! At the same time, Xu Qingzhi cut the braised duck into pieces, fried it with tea leaves in another pot, and added chili spices for seasoning.

The super large bowl of spicy chicken nuggets and tea-flavored duck is ready.

Xu Qingzhi was thoughtful enough to cook rice for the two little ones early, and divided the rice and chicken and duck into two portions and put them into their oversized rice bowls.

She kept two pieces and tasted them herself.

Well, not bad, tasty enough.

The chicken nuggets are spicy and flavorful, while the duck meat has a mellow tea aroma that leaves a long-lasting aftertaste.
