Chapter 263 What is Zhang Lanxiang going to do with the wasteland she contracted?
Deputy Captain Wang originally wanted to tease Zhang Lanxiang for a while, but Zhao Fa actually told the truth.
"What's impossible about this?"
Zhang Lanxiang still didn't believe it and thought the two captains were making things difficult for her.
"Who would be so foolish as to contract such wasteland?"
This statement directly implicated both captains. How could Zhao Fa and Deputy Captain Wang let it go like this?
Deputy Captain Wang pointed to his head and then to Zhao Fa's.
"Are we both stupid?"
Zhang Lanxiang was even more confused. She was only talking about those who contracted the wasteland. Why did Deputy Captain Wang take it upon himself to curse?
"Don't be angry. I was talking about the people who contracted the wasteland. How could I say that the two captains were stupid?"
The more Zhao Fa listened, the angrier he became. He took out two freshly signed contracts from the drawer and slammed them on the table.
"Look, all the stupid things you mentioned are right here!"
Zhang Lanxiang looked at the contract on the table and saw two big characters written on it beside the signature: "Zhao Fa"...
She knew that she had offended the two captains again this time.
"Yes... I'm sorry, Captain, Deputy Captain Wang, I didn't know you guys also contracted the wasteland. I was just talking nonsense, yes, it was nonsense..."
Zhao Fa glared at her fiercely and put the contract away.
"Alright, go do what you need to do! Don't keep running to the team when you have nothing to do."
Zhang Lanxiang came here this time to contract the wasteland according to Shang Ruolian's advice. How could she be willing to accept that the task failed?
"Captain, I really want to contract some wasteland. Can you think of a way?"
After Zhang Lanxiang had been in the office for so long, Zhao Fa finally heard her say something normal.
Therefore, there was no more ridicule.
"You're too slow. All the wasteland has been contracted out."
Zhang Lanxiang refused to give up and pleaded, "Two captains, please think of another way..."
Zhao Fa and Deputy Captain Wang were both born and raised in Sihe Village. Having served as captains for so many years, they are quite familiar with the situation of each family.
Take Zhang Lanxiang's family for example. Shang Lichun and Shang Jianguo are both lazy and like to eat. Originally, there was Shang Ruolian who helped with the work and earned work points. Now, Shang Ruolian has also moved to the city. In total, their family only has Zhang Lanxiang as a laborer.
They weren't sure if they could even manage the nine mu of land they were allocated per capita! Now they were asked to contract wasteland. They couldn't understand why Zhang Lanxiang insisted on contracting wasteland.
Could it be that gold can be dug out from the wasteland?
"What do you want to do with the wasteland?" Zhao Fa asked directly out of curiosity.
This question stumped Zhang Lanxiang.
What does her family do with the wasteland they contracted?
She herself didn't know, but she felt that her daughter's words were not groundless.
However, Shang Ruolian's letter did not specify the purpose of the wasteland. For a moment, Zhang Lanxiang really didn't know how to respond to Zhao Fa.
Zhao Fa and Deputy Captain Wang looked at each other and both felt that there was something fishy about Zhang Lanxiang's trip.
Deputy Captain Wang usually has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. Seeing Zhang Lanxiang's appearance, he started to have some bad thoughts.
He pulled Zhao Fa out of the office.
The two of them whispered in the corridor:
"Old Zhao, I'm just curious, what is Zhang Lanxiang going to do with the wasteland?" Deputy Captain Wang was the first to express his doubts.
Zhao Fa nodded: "I'm curious too."
Deputy Captain Wang said with a hint of gloating, "But I don't think she can clearly explain the purpose of contracting the wasteland."
Zhao Fa didn't want to play dumb with Vice Captain Wang. "What are you going to do?"
Deputy Captain Wang beckoned Zhao Fa, and when they got closer, he said, "Anyway, we contracted these wastelands because they were left over, and we don't know what to do with them. Why not give her two acres?"
Zhao Fa pondered for a moment and felt that what Vice Captain Wang said made sense.
"Alright, let's each give her two acres. I want to see what their family is going to do with the wasteland they contracted."
After discussing it, the two returned to the office.
Deputy Captain Wang sat at his desk and said in a condescending tone, "Since you strongly request to contract the wasteland, the captain and I can't let you come here in vain. We have decided to give you two acres of our contracted wasteland each."
Shang Ruolan had reminded in the letter that the more wasteland contracted, the better.
Now, although these four acres of land are a little less, Zhang Lanxiang also knows that it is already the limit.
"Okay, okay, I'd like to thank both captains first. I'm not sure when I can sign the contract."
Zhao Fa took out the contract he had just signed with Deputy Captain Wang, tore it up in front of Zhang Lanxiang, and then took out three blank contracts and signed them again.
