Chapter 330 A Little Expensive

Zhou Guohua came out of the production team.

The dock was bustling with activity as the fishing boats returned to the port.

After selling the fish, Zhou Bingqiang was about to go home when he saw his youngest son coming out of the production team.

"Guohua." He called out to him.

Zhou Guohua heard his father calling him and looked back: "Dad, are you back from the sea? How was your catch today?"

Zhou Bingqiang smiled and said, "Not bad! We sold more than 200."

These days, luck is finally coming! He is obviously feeling better every day.

Today was even better, one boat was sold for over two hundred.

It has been a long time since I made so much money! After beating the villain, my luck finally came back! Zhou Bingqiang now takes turns helping his sons go out to sea, one person helping for a day.

Zhou Guohua also laughed after hearing this: "That's pretty good!"

"How about you? How much did you sell today?"

Zhou Guohua smiled and said, "Not bad, more than sixty."

That's right, Zhou Bingqiang smiled, "What are you going to do in the production team?"

Zhou Guohua: "Xiao Wan wants to buy the land behind the new house. I asked my aunt to help me find out how much it costs. But one acre costs two thousand yuan, which is a bit expensive."

Zhou Bingqiang: "Why buy it? It gets flooded every year and it's hard to grow anything there."

Zhou Guohua didn't dare tell his father that it was Wen Wan who wanted to buy it.

Now his father would never do anything that Wen Wan dreamed of.

"I was thinking of buying it and using it to raise chickens and pigs. Xiaowan is pregnant now and can't stand the smell of chicken shit."

Zhou Bingqiang said immediately, "Two thousand yuan is so expensive, what are you going to spend that money on? Do you have enough money to buy it? Have you paid the workers? Have you paid for the cement and sand? The land in the village originally belongs to the villagers. If you want to raise chickens, just use the bricks and stones left over from building the house to build a chicken coop, and ask your mother to cut some bamboo to surround it, isn't that enough!"

Nowadays, the ownerless wasteland in the village is generally considered to belong to whoever opened it up and used it for a long time, and the land can be used continuously.

In the future, when the land is expropriated, the money from the land will go to the village committee, and the compensation for young crops will also be given to the villagers.

So in some places, villagers planted trees and occupied land everywhere in order to obtain compensation for expropriation, hoping to get compensation for young crops.

Zhou Guohua didn't want to buy one either, mainly because it was too expensive and he didn't have the money. His aunt also said that he didn't need to buy one and could just fence it up and use it: "Then I'll talk to my mom and ask her to help me build a chicken coop behind the new house. I'll raise some chickens for Xiaowan to eat during her confinement."

"Okay, you have to ask your mother to hatch some chicks and start raising them. When they grow up, we'll move them to your chicken coop."

The father and son walked home while talking.

After returning home, Zhou Guohua returned to his room.

Wen Wan couldn't wait to ask: "How is it? How much is one acre?"

Zhou Guohua: “Two thousand.”

Wen Wan was surprised: "So expensive?"

Zhou Guohua was afraid that Wen Wan would urge him to buy them again, so he said, "Well, I asked my father and eldest brother, and my second brother borrowed some money to buy them. The production team asked me why I bought them, and I said I would raise chickens. When the time comes, I will ask my mother to build a chicken house, and we will raise some chickens there to feed you during your confinement."

Wen Wan laughed when she heard this: "Tell mom not to build the chicken coop too close to our new house. The chicken coop smells really bad on rainy days!"

"Okay, I'll go talk to Mom."

When Zhou Bingqiang's wife heard that they were going to build a chicken coop behind the new house to raise chickens, she immediately said, "Okay, I'll build it tomorrow!"

We need to enlarge the area for raising chickens, lest Zhou Yongfu and his family raise chickens and pigs in the back, which would stink to death. *** Zhou Chenglei returned home two hours later, and then found that the two unripe strawberries were gone.

Zhou Chenglei: “…”

He took the basket hanging from the handlebars of his motorcycle and walked to the well.

Jiang Xia sat on the bed, leaning against the headboard and translated. When she was tired, she would lie down.

She heard the sound of a motorcycle, but after waiting for a long time and not seeing Zhou Chenglei enter the room, she got out of bed and went out. As soon as she walked out of the living room, she saw Zhou Chenglei walking into the room with a bowl of strawberries.

Jiang Xia's eyes lit up: "Where did it come from?"

"They were picked by Uncle Quan from the next village." He asked everyone in the village, but no one grew strawberries at home. Later, someone told him that some people in Wenjia Village grew them, so he went to take a look.

But people only planted a few for the children to eat, so there were only a few, and they were half-ripe. The ripe ones were eaten by the children.

If he had known earlier, he would have planted a strawberry field.

Jiang Xia picked up a strawberry and fed it to Zhou Chenglei: "What did the production team say?"

Zhou Chenglei held her wrist, took the strawberry, removed the stem and put it in her mouth: "I don't like it, you eat it. It costs two thousand yuan per acre, which is not cheap."

Jiang Xia: “Buy it then.”

"Yes. Because we bought a lot and it involves other villages, we have to go to the town to apply and get the consent of the villagers in other villages."

He will write the application tonight, and when he goes to the city tomorrow, he will stop by the town to submit the application materials.

Father and Mother Zhou came back from outside carrying a bucket of fish.

These were all good fish they brought back from the dock for Jiang Xia to eat.

Father Zhou brought the fish into the house to show Jiang Xia, and asked her if she wanted to have it steamed or pan-fried. Hearing this, he asked curiously, "What do you need to apply for?"

Zhou Chenglei: "I plan to buy two plots of land."

Jiang Xia: "We want to buy the land behind the new house."

Father Zhou immediately said, "It's a good idea to buy some land! Soil can produce white jade, and land can produce gold. It's also good to buy some land. Buy the land behind the new house, and no one will be able to block our family's Feng Shui in the future."

The land that Wangcai likes must be a Feng Shui treasure land!

"purchase!"

Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Dad, what you said is very good!"

The soil can produce white jade, and the earth can produce gold.

The future is not a place where every inch of land is worth money.

Zhou's mother doesn't care about these things now, and she doesn't understand them. Anyway, having money to buy land is always a good thing.

Now she is only focused on taking good care of Jiang Xia and the baby in her belly.

She asked Jiang Xia: "Xiao Xia, do you want to steam or braise the grouper? Or do you want sweet or sour?"

Jiang Xia took a look and saw a grouper, a few small yellow croakers, some miscellaneous fish, and a few mantis shrimps as long as his arm: "Mom, just steam and blanch them briefly. I can eat anything. Do you want some strawberries?"

Jiang Xia handed over the strawberries in the bowl.

"I don't eat it, but you do. Then I'll steam the fish, it's sweet." Mother Zhou took two buckets of fish and went out to enthusiastically prepare a nutritious meal for Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia ate two more strawberries and left three uneaten, intending to leave them for Zhou Zhou.

Zhou Zhou came back from school and was called out by the village children to play after he finished his homework.

***The next day, at eight o'clock in the morning, Zhou Chenglei pushed his motorcycle in.

Zhou's mother asked, "Where did you go on your motorcycle so early in the morning before daybreak?"

Zhou's mother got up at five o'clock and found that her son had gone out on a motorcycle.

"Xia Xia wants to eat strawberries. I'll go to Jiang Yang's place and pick some."

It takes an hour and a half to drive a motorcycle to Jiang Yang's place.

Zhou Chenglei put down the basket of strawberries hanging on the front of the car. There was also a basket of other fruits and several fruit tree seedlings on the back seat, all of which were given by Jiang Yang.

Zhou Chenglei also brought back a lot of strawberry seedlings.

Zhou's mother hurried forward to help move it down.

Jiang Xia heard the sound of a car and came out, then saw a large basket of strawberries and a large basket of fruits.

I don't know how to say good things about him.

Your clothes are all wet by the fog, right?

"You're going to Jiang Yang's place so early? Aren't you afraid of disturbing others?"

"Don't bother me. I called him yesterday." He took off his helmet.

It was cloudy today, and the morning steam was very high. Jiang Xia went forward and touched his clothes, and they were indeed wet: "Go take a shower, there's hot water in the iron pot."

Jiang Xia turned around and went to find clothes for him.

Zhou Chenglei pointed at the strawberry seedlings in the basket and said, "Mom, you can take these strawberries to the vegetable garden when you have time. There's room in the flowerbed in our yard to plant a few too. I'll take Xia Xia to the city to see a doctor later."

"So these fruit trees are planted near the new house?"

"No, it's for my sister-in-law. She wants to plant it."

"Okay, you and Xiaoxia go to the city. Drive carefully and choose a better road. Xiaoxia can't stand any more tossing and turning right now. I'll go make you a bowl of ginger soup."

Zhou Chenglei responded, then went back to his room, took the clothes Jiang Xia found for him and went to take a shower.

After taking a shower and having breakfast, the sun finally came out. He drove his motorcycle and took Jiang Xia to the city and went to the town to submit the application.
