Tang Simeng and Tang Ruixuan came back soon.
The little girl's face was covered with something and was dirty, but the smile on her face was particularly bright.
She came here wearing a skirt again today, and now Tang Simeng used the skirt to hold oranges, stuffing it full of round oranges.
"Mom, this orange is really sweet. Come and try it. These are all for you. Dad has a lot more. Grandpa is so kind that he left a tree and land for us!" Tang Simeng peeled one quickly and stuffed a slice of orange into Qin Zijin's mouth.
Qin Zijin took a bite and found it was indeed very sweet and juicy.
This should be the famous sugar orange here.
Tang Aiguo has a natural talent for planting. After all, he grew up working in the fields, and farming has been engraved in his soul.
"Dad, are all these oranges exported now?" Qin Zijin ate an orange before turning to ask Tang Aiguo.
"Half is exported, and half is kept in the country. It's sold at a relatively high price, two yuan per pound in the country, and only those with better-off families can afford to spend money to eat it." Tang Aiguo told Qin Zijin about the situation with a smile.
The fruits in the orchard here are all sold out and have basically been reserved. There is not much left.
"You can consider making it into canned food. Canned oranges are very delicious." Qin Zijin thought of how he loved canned food in the past.
I love canned yellow peaches and canned oranges.
"I've been talking to several nearby villages recently about acquiring more land, so that we can expand the scale and plant more crops. Our current scale is still a bit too small to take care of so many demands." Tang Aiguo thought for a while before shaking his head with a wry smile.
One hundred acres of land looks quite large, but actually there is not much left after planting fruit trees.
What's more, they have many varieties of fruit trees in their orchard.
At the beginning, we planned to grow food for our own consumption and sell the excess in the market.
I never expected it to become an industrial chain.
"Okay, if you don't have enough money, just tell me." Qin Zijin nodded.
All matters here are handed over to Tang Aiguo. Qin Zijin and Tang Can will not touch the money earned. It is all reserved for Tang Aiguo's retirement money.
Tang Aiguo has really contributed a lot to this farm.
After picking oranges, Tang Simeng and Tang Ruixuan were taken by Tang Aiguo to pick strawberries.
Tang Siwan looked on with envy, but as she was only a month old, she could only lie in the stroller and envy.
After all, she can't eat these things now, and she can't go down to the fields to pick them.
In the afternoon, the village heads of several neighboring villages came together and planned to have a good talk with Tang Aiguo about the issue of land contracting.
It is not expensive to contract land these days. It doesn’t cost much to contract dozens of acres of land in a year.
"Old Tang, you see, we're not strangers anymore. We're pretty familiar with each other. I heard you paid quite a bit of money when you first contracted the land in Tangxia Village. You can't treat our village unfairly. You should pay us more."
"Yes, it's not easy for us. Look at Tangxia Village now. The road has been built, and every household is living a good life. Houses have been built. We are all envious of them."
"There are only 128 acres of contiguous land available for rent in our village. Tell us how many years you want to lease it for and we can negotiate a price."
Qin Zijin sat aside without saying a word, listening quietly.
Tang Aiguo looked honest and simple-minded on the surface, but in reality, he was no pushover. He thought for a moment before speaking, "Let's just follow the current policy. I'll pay you whatever amount you're owed, not a penny less, and I'll settle the contract payment in full."
"This..." Several people hesitated.
Qin Zijin saw that although these people really wanted to contract out the land, they wanted a high price and wanted to get more money.
She laughed and said calmly, "If you think the contract price is too low, why don't we just buy it out."
"Buy out?" Several people were shocked and then looked at Qin Zijin.
"That's right, we will buy all the land available in your village at once." Qin Zijin nodded.
She had actually thought about this a long time ago.
However, these lands are collectively owned, so it is a bit troublesome to buy or sell them. But if the village decides to sell them, it is another matter.
"How much can you offer?" one of the village chiefs couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
The others also looked at Qin Zijin nervously.
Qin Zijin thought for a moment.
These lands are not expensive, especially in this era. If she really wants to lower the price, she can get them at a very low price.
But Qin Zijin didn't intend to do so.
"I'll give you two options."
"First, I will buy out the property rights from you at a price of two thousand per acre. From now on, this land will belong to me and will no longer have anything to do with you."
"Second, you give us the land for free, and we'll give you 20 percent of the annual harvest as dividends."
"You can think about it carefully." Qin Zijin directly gave two options.
If you are a person with a long-term vision, you will definitely choose the latter.
But those who are short-sighted will generally choose the first one.
After all, money is something you can actually see.
As for the so-called harvest, no one can guarantee how much money can be harvested in a year.
"Two thousand yuan per acre?" someone couldn't help but exclaim.
Two thousand yuan is not a small amount of money!
The average salary now is just over 40, so earning 500 a year is considered good.
Two thousand yuan is equivalent to an average person’s income for four years.
One acre of land costs two thousand, ten acres of land costs twenty thousand, and one hundred acres of land costs two hundred thousand!
Two hundred thousand!
They had never seen so much money in their entire lives.
"You, are you sure it's two thousand, not two hundred?" In fact, these lands in rural areas are not that valuable now. The price of two thousand yuan is at least five times higher than the market price.
So a few people were still a little nervous.
"Of course, the money can be given to you directly when signing the contract. I will pay in cash." Qin Zijin answered very straightforwardly.
If she succeeds in taking over the land of these villages, she can build an agricultural empire of her own.
In the future, Guangzhou City will develop, and the land here will either be bought by real estate developers to build buildings, or developed into industrial areas or commercial areas.
She hopes that this place will become a natural resort where people can enjoy their old age and life.
"Sell! We choose to sell it directly to you! We will go back and complete the formalities. You can tell us a time and we will sign the purchase and sales contract." Several people looked at each other, lowered their heads and communicated for a while, and then made a decision.
Qin Zijin was very satisfied with this: "Okay, three days later."
