Chapter 535 Signing a Contract of Sale
"Even if we break through the ice and go out to sea, the temperature is too cold. Many people are wearing too much, which affects their movements and makes it unsuitable to go out to sea."
"There's quite a lot of time in a year where I can't go out to sea, and during that time, I don't have much income."
"So, I decided to raise some seafood myself. When I can't or don't want to go out to sea, I can sell my own seafood. This way I can reduce losses and increase income."
Another purpose was that she wanted to find an excuse to take out the seafood from the space.
Ji Jingnan agreed with her words, "Indeed, this is safe."
Xiao Xuanli happened to come over and heard what they were saying. He asked, "Safe? What happened?"
When Ji Jingnan saw Xiao Xuanli, he knew that his cousin's matter was settled today, so he told him about Song Chuman's plan.
No matter how high his official position was, he could not interfere in the beach trading.
Xiao Xuanli was instantly delighted. "Ah Man, after you buy the beach, are you going to hire a lot of people to do the work?"
Song Chuman nodded. "Yes, we don't have enough manpower, so we definitely need to hire more. But when it comes to beach farming, we're most afraid of someone poisoning or destroying it. Otherwise, months or even years of hard work will be wasted."
"So, if I can really buy the beaches and the sea, I want the people who work there to sign an indenture to sell themselves."
"Only when their future is in my hands can I feel more at ease with them."
"But I won't keep them selling themselves to me forever. They have the freedom to leave. If they want to leave, I can redeem their indentures at any time."
But as long as she offers a lot of money, I guess no one would be so stupid as to give up a high income just for a piece of indenture.
Xiao Xuanli didn't think that selling oneself was excessive. The servants in wealthy families, the chief and minor stewards in the farm, and those in key positions must all sign a contract to sell themselves so that they would be loyal.
"Aman, how big a beach and sea area do you need?"
Song Chuman thought for a moment, "I don't know the current price of beach products. If they are cheap, I will buy more. If they are too expensive, I don't have much money. I also need to save for my family and for emergencies, so I can only buy less."
Xiao Xuanli stretched out his hand, and Ziyuan immediately took out the topographic map of Qingyu Village.
After Xiao Xuanli took it, he squatted down to take Song Chuman's height into consideration, put the topographic map on the ground, pointed at the beach above and said, "Look where you like."
Song Chuman's eyes lit up, "Can I buy whatever I like?"
Xiao Xuanli looked at her, smiled and nodded, "Of course, as long as it doesn't affect the other people in Qingyu Village going to the sea."
"Yes, I understand."
Song Chuman knew what he meant. She was alone, and there were hundreds of people in the village.
If her interests are affected, there will be people who will do bad things to her in the future.
But she would not do anything immoral that would destroy someone's livelihood.
Song Chuman lowered her head and looked carefully at the topographic map of Qingyu Village.
To be honest, Qingyu Village is quite large and has a long coastline.
It’s just that villagers generally don’t like to walk too far. Otherwise, even if they find seafood and bring it to the city, many of the seafood will have died and become worthless.
After looking for a while, Song Chuman suddenly pointed to the beach that the cave was facing, "Let's go here. From here to here, it occupies a quarter of the coastline of Qingyu Village. The rest of the area will not affect their fishing."
