"You still want to cultivate this land? It's already desertified, what can you grow?
If you really raised sheep before, it must be because the sheep ate too much. You can't grow anything on this kind of land even if it's not dry!"
Hu Liu's words were not polite at all, and his direct words made the older man's face turn red and white.
"That's why I'm selling it. Who else would sell it?" The young man didn't have any ulterior motives, but as soon as he said that, he earned a glare from the older man.
"Who among you is the owner of the land?" Hu Liu asked the two men opposite.
"The land is mine, I am alone, and my nephew will take care of me in my old age." The older man replied.
"Are you going to buy this land or not?" the young man asked again.
"This land... cannot be planted or used after we buy it, this..." Hu Liu didn't seem very interested.
"Oh! The soil of this land doesn't look very good now, but you can buy it and take care of it! The soil will naturally get better after a few years, and you can plant whatever you want then!" The young man became even more impatient when he saw that Hu Liu did not completely refuse.
"Yes, yes, the soil can be used for growth." The older people also echoed.
"Do you think I don't understand? This land cannot be cultivated in one or two years. It will take at least twenty years. And it needs careful care, like planting grass, watering, and wind protection. It's very troublesome." Hu Liu deals with all kinds of people every day and knows a little about everything.
"This..." The young man was suddenly blocked.
"Actually, we can plant trees here." The older man said without much confidence.
"What kind of trees can survive in this sandy land? Not to mention there's not even any water. Even if there is water, it's all sand. No matter how much water you pour, it will seep into the sand!" Hu Liu shook his head in disdain.
"Then...some will still survive." The young man muttered.
"How much do you want to sell this piece of land for?" Hu Liu asked casually.
"Five...thousand?" The young man looked at his uncle and spoke with great guilt.
"Five thousand for this piece of shabby land? Are you kidding me?" Hu Liu turned around and was about to leave.
"Hey...hey...hey...brother, don't go! Do you want to buy it or not?" The young man hurriedly stopped Hu Liu.
"Don't ask me whether I want to buy it or not. I think it's a question of whether you want to sell it or not." Hu Liu just slowed down his pace.
"Young man, let me hear a price." The older man spoke.
"You are the sellers, you have to tell me a more reliable price. Let me make it clear first, don't do anything reckless like you did just now, otherwise I will turn around and leave." Hu Liu had a creepy face.
"It seems that the young man is really interested in it! In that case, I'll tell you a real price, three thousand five hundred, what do you think?" The older man thought about it and said a price a little more than what he had in mind.
"It's too high. So... here's the price: two thousand! If you find it acceptable, we'll go and handle the formalities now. If not, I'll leave right away." When Hu Liu turned around, he saw the gesture Leng You made to him and immediately understood what he meant.
"Deal!" The older man waved his fist without saying a word.
"Then let's go and handle the formalities now." The young man was afraid that Hu Liu would go back on his word.
Leng You: “…”
She originally thought it would cost at least 20,000 yuan.
Although to the uncle and nephew, the two thousand yuan was equivalent to free money, but more than 20 years later, the two hundred acres of land could be worth a price that could not be defined even by a sky-high price.
So now it seems that only the 20-odd acres of land with an orchard has the highest price, which shows that location is still the most important.
This further strengthened Leng You's determination to take advantage of this era when land is as cheap as cabbage to stock up as much as possible. This is much more cost-effective than keeping money in the bank or even in gold bars.
Two hours later, another land ownership certificate was in Leng You's hands.
At dinner time, everyone gathered at Hu's house.
"Niece, what about these two hundred acres of wasteland? What are we going to do with it? It won't take such a large area just to open a bacon factory, right?" Hu Liu looked at Leng You.
Although it only cost two thousand yuan to buy such a large piece of land, that land has no other use except building a factory. So when Hu Liu thought about it, he felt that the two thousand yuan was a loss.
When I thought about the uncle and nephew’s grinning faces after receiving the money, I felt even more sorry for the money.
"Open another pig farm and let Aunt Liu be in charge." Leng You had thought of this when he saw the large piece of land.
"Ah?" Wu Shuyu was startled.
"Sister-in-law, our eldest niece promoted both of us as soon as she came. We will all be leaders in the future!" Zhang Meilan was really scared when she first learned that Leng You asked her to be in charge of the cured meat processing factory.
Even she herself didn't think she had this ability, but she didn't expect Leng You to trust her so much.
Just one sentence, "I believe Aunt Hu Liu's abilities are far beyond my imagination," immediately filled Zhang Meilan with confidence and expectations for her future career.
Of course, the support of Grandma Hu was also indispensable. "My health is now in great shape thanks to Youyou. Just go about your business. I'll take care of everything at home."
"But I can't do it!" Wu Shuyu is a bit introverted and her face is full of fear and anxiety.
"Didn't my niece say so? She will ask technicians to give you lessons. You just need to learn the skills and then make sure all the workers work hard and don't slack off. Just do what you say and that's it."
Liu Dazui is different from Hu Liu. Hu Liu is henpecked, or in other words, afraid of his wife, while Liu Dazui can be called the model of a man who dotes on his wife.
"But I..."
"Oh! Sister-in-law, we have been together for so long, and we all know what kind of person our eldest niece is. Although she is young, she is a child prodigy!
Whatever she says is right, we just need to listen. If she says we can do it, then we can do it. This is not a small matter, she will not joke about such things. "
Zhang Meilan actually started to persuade Wu Shuyu.
Leng You: “…”
She heard that Zhang Meilan's tone when talking about the child prodigy carried some mystery or fantasy, and the word "god" made people hear the connotation of "great god".
"Can it really work?" Wu Shuyu looked at Leng You.
"As long as Aunt Liu doesn't mind the dirt, she will be able to do the job. I also made the arrangements based on your different personalities, Aunt Hu Liu." Leng You explained briefly.
Although a cured meat processing factory sounds a little more advanced than a pig farm, the actual reason is that its production process is much more complicated than that of a pig farm, and the management is also more complicated accordingly.
Leng You did make this arrangement based on the two's personalities and abilities.
"Since my niece said so, I will... give it a try!" Wu Shuyu finally nodded.
