Gu Yan went out for a while and borrowed a bicycle from somewhere.
He patted the back of the bicycle and said, "Come on, ride faster."
Ye Jin jumped into the car, and Gu Yan stepped on it very fast. The muddy road was bumpy, and Ye Jin was almost thrown off. She was so scared that she quickly hugged Gu Yan's waist.
Gu Yan's whole body tensed up and he almost couldn't hold the handlebars. The car wobbled for a while, and Ye Jin was so scared that she hugged him tighter. Gu Yan took a deep breath and finally calmed down.
The car drove quickly to Lijia Village, and the village chief was playing chess with others at the entrance of the village as usual.
Seeing the two people coming, he didn't ask them to wait this time. He immediately pushed the chessboard away, stood up and greeted them with a smile.
"You old man Li, if you lose, you will mess around. You are not honest at all!"
Old Man Wang and Village Chief Li played chess countless times, and each time they lost more than they won. This time they were finally about to win, but they didn't expect him to play this trick.
Old man Wang was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, but Village Chief Li walked up to the two of them with a stern face and couldn't help but scold them a few words.
"You told me you'd get in touch with me for a week, but I haven't seen you guys come in for so long. I almost thought you'd stood me up."
Village chief Li stroked his goatee, his words sounded reproachful, but there was a smile on his face.
"It's really not my fault. It's because of the heavy snow that I can't come down. I came here as soon as the weather got better these days."
Ye Jin explained with a smile, and Village Chief Li didn't take it to heart. He just took them to the village chief's office.
"Are you coming here to handle the paperwork this time? Did you bring the money?"
Village chief Li took a look at Ye Jin's bulging pockets and immediately knew what was going on.
"I'm here to handle the paperwork. Don't worry, I've brought the money."
Seeing Ye Jin so confident, Village Chief Li smiled so hard that his face was full of wrinkles.
"Since we've brought the money, let's go to the office and complete the paperwork."
"We can go through the formalities, but we hope that everyone in the village can come and sign. After all, the land doesn't belong to just one person. If we buy the land and someone comes to cause trouble for us, the villagers coming here will serve as witnesses for us."
Don't look at Ye Jin's young age, his ideas are flawless.
Village chief Li thought about it for a moment and finally nodded in agreement to her request.
"Okay, I'll do as you say!"
Village chief Li led them to his office and had someone pour them a cup of tea before he went to tinker with the village radio.
After a while, a loud voice came from the broadcasting office.
"Fellow villagers of Lijia Village, we have an important matter to discuss with you. Please put down your work and gather at the village committee immediately! Gather at the village committee immediately! Gather at the village committee immediately!"
When the villagers received the notice, they were all confused, but they obediently dropped their tools and rushed to the village committee quickly.
Soon, more than 100 people gathered at the entrance of the village committee, and Village Chief Li held a loud speaker and loudly announced the great news.
"Fellow villagers of your village, we have a distinguished guest today. This distinguished guest has purchased a piece of land west of the village. Here is the land transfer document, which requires signatures from all villagers."
As soon as Village Chief Li said this, everyone started whispering to each other, and some people immediately stood up to object.
"Although no one lives in the west house, it belongs to our Li Village and we can't sell it cheaply to outsiders!"
"The village chief is a good man. He sold the village house and asked us to sign the agreement. If the owner of the house comes back, won't we all be in trouble?"
"I've sold both my house and my land, but the villagers haven't benefited from it at all. Why should I sell it to you?"
Village chief Li had anticipated everyone's reaction. He reached out to suppress the noise, cleared his throat and spoke loudly.
"Of course I understand your concerns. I asked you to come here not just to sign, but anyone willing to sign will receive a 10 yuan reward per household."
As soon as Village Chief Li said this, everyone was stunned, and then a look of ecstasy appeared on their faces.
Ten dollars! That's ten dollars! It takes ten days of work in town to earn that much money. Now they can just sign their name and get it. What a good deal! Who wouldn't do the math?
"I sign!"
"I sign!"
"I want to sign too. Where should I sign? Bring me the paper!"
Village chief Li took out the drafted contract and asked Ye Jin to come out and pay the money in person.
"You'll give 10 yuan to anyone who signs the document. But you have to remember the total amount so you don't end up with a mismatch."
"I don't think this will work. You need to call someone over. I'll give them 1,000 yuan, and then we'll count to see if there are 100 signatures. If there are any duplicate signatures, you'll need your own people to check."
Ye Jin immediately gave 1,000 yuan to the village women's director and asked her to take full responsibility for the matter.
When everyone heard that there was money to be won, they excitedly huddled together. Ye Jin clapped his hands and signaled them to line up in an orderly manner.
"Come one by one, sign your name and receive 10 yuan. If you are caught receiving more than one, you will have to hand over the previous 10 yuan."
Ye Jin makes the rules and Gu Yan helps maintain order.
The chaotic crowd quickly lined up and everyone signed their names and received their money in an orderly manner.
Ye Jin had checked with Village Chief Li before. There were a total of 156 households in the village. Each household received 10 yuan, and the total amount after all was distributed was only 1,560 yuan.
In addition, some people have been away for a long time, and some families have become extinct, so the total number of families that actually came to sign was 130.
This already accounts for the vast majority, and based on the principle that the minority obeys the majority, the contract is concluded.
Finally, several village cadres signed their names and went to the Housing Management Office to notarize the agreement. Ye Jin paid the balance and the land was purchased.
After seeing off Village Chief Li and others, Ye Jin, who had been smiling all the time, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's finally done."
"I just saw you smiling so brightly that your face became stiff from smiling."
"Isn't this to match everyone's enthusiasm?"
After spending 10,000 yuan, Ye Jin, who had just saved some money, was back to the life before liberation.
"Do you want to walk around town now or go back?"
"Let's go shopping. I want to buy something."
The two of them walked casually onto a street, and Ye Jin saw a small stall selling clothes and socks that was doing a booming business.
Although she has the blessing of space and can grow many valuable vegetables and medicinal herbs, there are also considerable limitations because these plants need to rely on the irrigation of space spring water.
But if you run a small business, you won't have these constraints at all.
Ye Jin's eyes lit up again and again, and he finally made up his mind.
"You want to do business? You can start in Qingshan Town, but if you want to expand, you'll have to go somewhere further."
Gu Yan looked up into the distance, his gaze deep and distant.
