The few families who rented houses in the village also planted some land.
There happened to be a piece of land in the village, but the harvest was poor.
When we were still working together in the team to earn work points, this land could not be left idle and had to be planted even if the harvest was poor.
Later, the land was distributed to each household, but the villagers all knew that the land was not good and no one wanted it.
At that time, the village did not distribute the land. After the land was distributed, it would be a big problem to leave it idle.
Just tell anyone who wants to plant it, and they can plant it.
As a result, no one was willing to plant it, and the investment in fertilizer and manpower was not enough to justify the trouble.
If I lose money by farming this kind of land, I definitely won’t do it.
Later, the people who rented the house wanted to farm some land, so the village contracted it out for a very cheap price.
Each family has only a small piece of land, not much.
After Uncle Wang explained the situation, he enthusiastically took Hua Youcai to the village chief's house.
The land is just west of the Hua family, just across the road.
Even though the crops are not growing, the weeds are growing very lushly.
Hua Youcai directly bought a box of cigarettes, a bottle of wine, a can of food, and a bag of biscuits from the canteen, which was enough.
If you don't have money when you go out, buy on credit first.
When you ask someone to do something for you, you can get it done without bringing anything with you, and it will be much smoother if you bring something with you.
It's human nature, and it's the same wherever you go.
Where did my daughter get those blank stamped letters of introduction that she secretly hid? That's how they came about!
Village chief Wang of Shili Village is also an open-minded person and is very efficient in doing things.
There is already a precedent for this in the village.
The land will just remain barren anyway, so you don't have to pay for it.
But because I was afraid that the villagers would complain, I charged a little, five yuan per acre per year.
These are all military dependents, and the villagers are willing to maintain good relations with them.
Because the troops are stationed here, the village also benefits.
For example, the middle school is in the village, while the general middle school must be built in the town.
The education problem of children accompanying military personnel has been solved, and it is also convenient for children in the village to go to school nearby.
Hua Youcai asked for clarification and then went home immediately to discuss it with his daughter.
Five dollars per acre of land per year, how much is the package?
Hua Yuanyuan thought about the production capacity of the space and its incredible growth rate, and conservatively said ten acres.
Hua Youcai thought his daughter might not know how much ten mu of land was, so he and his son planted ten mu of land...
"Dad, there's me too. There are three of us in our family. No, there's also my future son-in-law and daughter-in-law, a total of five of us."
Five people have ten acres of land, and each person has two acres, so it can be done.
Hua Yuanyuan looked at her father's conflicted expression and almost guessed what he was thinking.
"Okay, then ten acres and fifty dollars."
It’s really cheap, only five yuan per mu. People in this village are so cool that they won’t even accept the land if it’s given to them for free.
When Village Chief Wang heard that Hua Youcai wanted to lease ten acres of land, he was overjoyed.
The wasteland was of a total of twenty mu, five mu of which had been leased out, leaving about fifteen mu in total.
The final result was that the original ten acres of land became fifteen acres, and the remaining five acres were given away for free.
Because when signing the contract, the village wanted to sign for twenty years, and Hua Youcai said he would not do anything.
It is still a question whether he will still be around in twenty years.
He went to Wang Fugui's house specifically and asked his wife about it. He signed a one-year contract at that time and never signed again afterwards, but the land was still cultivated and he had to pay the money every year.
How come it became twenty years for him?
After much arguing, the two sides finally reached a consensus to give away five acres of land for free over five years.
The five acres of land given away for free is simply a burden, but the village is unwilling to give in, so there is nothing we can do.
The Hua family of three walked out of the house and headed west. After crossing the road to the west, this piece of wasteland belonged to their home.
The boundary is very obvious, and there are wheat fields all around. After the snow melted, the dark green wheat seedlings were exposed.
This piece of wasteland surrounded by wheat fields has nothing on it, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding green.
Hua Youcai..., thinking about the work he would have to do in the fields in the future, felt his waist a little sore.
"My daughter, can Dad find a son-in-law now?"
This made Hua Yuanyuan burst into laughter. The dad was quite funny.
It seems that she doesn't hate working in the fields, it's just in her roots.
The root of the problem lies with my father. I don’t know who he took after.
"Hahaha, Dad, hurry up and find someone who can do the job."
Hua Fangfang also followed suit, "Dad, don't forget your daughter-in-law, she also needs to be able to work."
…
Hua Youcai didn't want to keep his daughter here for too long because he was unsure how long she would stay.
If they suddenly don't want to be here anymore, they will have to pay every year after they leave, which will be a big loss.
But it’s no use thinking about these things now, let’s just take it one step at a time.
According to Hua Youcai's observations during this period, his daughter is indeed no longer interested in Wang Changjiang, and it is a good thing that she is concentrating on growing vegetables.
So as long as his daughter doesn't think too much, he will accompany her no matter what she does.
Then we started to get busy.
Hua Fangfang was sent out to buy bamboo strips and straw mats, and ordered the quantity for two greenhouses, with the dimensions remaining unchanged.
Hua Yuanyuan was busy raising seedlings, and the greenhouse in the yard was turned into a seedling shed.
After the greenhouse outside is built, the seedlings can be transplanted directly there, which will have a higher survival rate.
There is also an empty area in the space, which is used specifically for growing seedlings.
Hua Youcai found a family in the village to help plow the soil.
The money is not included in the food, and is calculated by the acre of land, one dollar per acre.
If you finish the work in ten days, you get fifteen yuan. If you finish the work in five days, you also get fifteen yuan.
Old Man Liu was leading the cow in front, and his son was holding the pears. They started working at dawn, had lunch in the fields, and finished work at dark.
It’s the first time I’ve ever had such a good opportunity to earn fifteen dollars right at home.
Because Hua Youcai required deep plowing, the plowing had to be slow, and the old ox also needed to rest, so it took a total of five days.
Hua Youcai asked around to find out who was doing animal husbandry and then went to buy manure from them.
