Chu Min glanced at Chu Tian, who had a helpless look on his face, and looked at Chu Jun with a headache. He thought to himself that they were all brothers, and even Chu Wen, their half-brother, was very quick-witted. Why couldn't his eldest brother think well every time?
Chu Jun looked at Chu Min in confusion and said "Ah?" foolishly.
“····”
Chu Tian took a deep breath, looked at Chu Min and said, "Second brother, don't beat around the bush with Big Brother, just say it directly."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Chu Jun and explained seriously, "Brother, we all know that you are not suitable for business, but your younger brother and second brother are making money, and we can't just watch you go on living in poverty. We have been thinking about what is suitable for you to do, but we have never thought of the most suitable one."
"So when we heard you say today that the country has implemented the land distribution and contract responsibility system, we thought you had a way out..."
Looking at the confused Chu Jun, Chu Min sighed and continued, "Brother, you and your sister-in-law are the only ones in your family who can work. Although Daya can work, she is in college and doesn't come home often, so she can't help much."
"Although Xiaoni can work now, she is not your biological daughter. It's fine if she helps out on a regular basis, but if you really keep her at home working every day and not going to school, the people in the brigade will definitely break the backbone of our Chu family..."
"So, even though you've been allocated two hundred acres of land, you simply can't manage it. If you can't manage it, you won't be able to take good care of it. The result of not taking good care of it is a poor harvest. So, do I need to tell you about the consequences of a poor harvest, brother?"
Chu Min stared at Chu Jun, thinking that if he still didn't understand, he really wanted to pry open his head to see whether it was paste or brains inside!
Chu Jun looked at Chu Min innocently, "So? I can't even cultivate these two hundred acres of land, and you want me to open a farm? Do you think that if I open a farm, the livestock on the farm can help me cultivate these two hundred acres of land?"
“······”
Chu Tian and Chu Min both lowered their heads in pain. They really didn't know what was wrong with Chu Jun's brain. He had clearly become much smarter over the years.
Seeing Chu Tian and Chu Min lower their heads, Chu Jun became anxious and quickly repeated, "What do you two mean? What I said is right, it is what it is!"
Chu Tian raised his head, touched his face with his hand, and looked at Chu Jun helplessly, "Brother, what I mean is that you contract another piece of land, keep one piece to build a livestock farm, and plant corn and sweet potatoes on the rest of the land. Then, the corn and sweet potato stalks can be harvested into fodder to feed livestock in the future..."
"Of course, you're definitely too busy to handle it yourself, but you can hire people to do the work, right? For example, some of our distant relatives of the Chu family, even if they have been allocated land, how much land can they get? Aren't they still hungry? As long as you pay them well, you can hire some people to work for you, right?"
"Besides, if you don't want to hire anyone, you can also cooperate with your cousins in the team and open a business together, but..."
Chu Jun was puzzled, "Just what?"
Chu Tian smiled and said, "It's just that, big brother, you are so honest. I am afraid that if you cooperate with others, you will suffer in the future!"
“·····”
Although what he said was the truth, Chu Jun still felt that his brother was hurting him when Chu Tian said that.
Chu Min also laughed, "Brother, don't feel hurt by me, I'm saying this for your own good!"
"Actually, to be honest, I don't approve of you cooperating with your cousins. After all, there have been too many cases of brothers falling out over money..."
Chu Tian nodded, "Yes, but it's different if you hire someone to do the work. Although it costs more, you won't have so many troubles later."
Chu Jun blinked, looked at Chu Tian and then at Chu Min, and hesitated, "Then, then why are you two..."
Chu Tian smiled, "Because we are all people who settle accounts openly! We won't be embarrassed to settle accounts just because we are brothers!"
Chu Min continued, "But you are different, big brother. You are the kind of person who values family ties and would rather suffer losses than hurt family ties!"
“····”
Chu Jun was silent for a moment, then asked, "Then, what kind of farm should I open?"
"Brother, you should contract the wasteland first!"
"You take over the land, sign a contract or provide proof, and we'll help you figure out what's suitable for you!"
As he spoke, Chu Tian stood up and poured a glass of water for himself and Chu Min. They were both thirsty after talking so much.
Chu Min took the water Chu Tian handed him, drank half of it in one breath, and continued, "From the land contract, we will allocate a few people to help you build the farm! This way, after the New Year, you can raise whatever you want directly."
Chu Jun felt anxious, "But, but, contracting the land requires money, I, I still owe my younger brother tens of thousands of yuan for building a house..."
Chu Tian curled his lips and smiled, "Brother, isn't it said that too many lice won't bite, and too many debts won't worry people? I, a creditor, am not worried, so why are you worried?"
Chu Jun hesitated for a long time before speaking, "I, I don't want to owe money, even if it's money I owe you..."
Chu Tian walked behind Chu Jun, patted his shoulder, and said earnestly, "Brother, people must have dreams, otherwise what's the difference between you and a salted fish?"
"It's not scary to owe money, as long as you work hard to earn back the money you owe. What's scary is that you have no ambition and are always content with the status quo and don't strive for progress!"
Chu Min finished the last sip of water in his cup and agreed, "Brother, I'm right. We're lending you money, so why are you afraid? Just go for it! Even if we don't talk about how much money you'll make in the future, at least it won't be worse than now!"
Chu Jun still felt that it was not a good idea, but seeing that his two younger brothers said so, he said he would go home and discuss it with Yu Zhen.
Chu Tian and Chu Min watched Chu Jun ride away on his bike. Chu Min asked in a low voice, "Do you think Big Brother dares to do it?"
"Who knows? Anyway, we have already found a way for him. If he doesn't seize this opportunity, the gap between us and Big Brother will only get bigger..."
Chu Tian spread his hands. Although he didn't say that even if he did it, the difference would still be huge, Chu Min could understand...
"Xiao Ni's mother, Xiao Ni's mother, are you there?"
"I'm telling you, today my younger and second brothers told me..."
Chu Jun returned home and shouted into the house before he even parked his bike. But before he could finish his words, he saw Yu Zhen running out in a hurry, grabbing him and walking aside.
"What's wrong?"
Chu Jun looked at Yu Zhen in confusion, only to see Yu Zhen occasionally glancing into the house and whispering to him.
"Brother Jun, a family of five came home. It is said that..."
Chu Jun was stunned. "What did you hear? Is it a relative from my hometown?"
