"Young man, do you really want to rent this place for a month?"
In an abandoned farm, an old farmer looked at the young man in front of him who was pulling a suitcase and carrying a backpack, and he looked very confused:
"I have to remind you that this place has been abandoned for almost three years. I was planning to take some time to repair it, but there has never been a good opportunity."
"Although this place is large, the houses and warehouses here have become dangerous and cannot be lived in."
"And the tools are all broken and in disrepair."
"It must be very inconvenient for you to stay here for a month."
"You young people, don't just look at what people on the Internet say about facing the sea and spring flowers blooming, and then just go find a place to live in the countryside."
"That's all lies. Life is not that simple, especially in the countryside. You have to do everything yourself."
The old farmer tried his best to persuade the young man.
He felt that this young man was just like those young people on the Internet who wanted to pursue pastoral idyll at the first sign of excitement. They were all short-lived and had no idea what the countryside actually represented.
However, who would have thought that the young man in front of him would be even happier after hearing what he said:
"That's great. To be honest, if you make this place like a farmhouse, I won't rent it."
"I came here to endure hardships."
The young man in front of the old farmer was naturally Ren Yan.
After nearly seven hours' drive, Ren Yan finally arrived at the land he had been considering for a long time.
The straight-line distance from here to the imperial capital is about 350 kilometers.
The transportation is not very convenient either.
The train can only reach a small town 70 kilometers away. The rest of the way here can only be reached by bus or van taxis that travel between towns.
For this reason, Ren Yan spent almost the entire day on the road.
After that, I asked the villagers and finally found this abandoned farmland.
The purpose is to truly escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, but not to be isolated from the world and miss the start of school.
However, when Ren Yan answered about suffering, I felt like laughing a little bit.
"It's not like I'm the one who's suffering anyway~"
The old farmer was a little stunned when he heard Ren Yan's words: "Just to endure hardship?"
"I really don't understand you young people. You have a good life but you have to come here to suffer. Aren't you mentally ill?"
Hearing this, Ren Yan's mouth twitched.
I thought, sir, even though we are simple and honest, we can't really speak out our true feelings...
But no matter how helpless he was, Ren Yan still coughed twice:
"After all, people always have to go through some hardships. Smooth sailing is not always a good thing."
"Okay, what you said makes some sense." The old farmer nodded: "But I still have to remind you that although there is a signal here, you can't shop online."
"If you want to buy something online, you can only leave it in town temporarily and then take a bus to pick it up when the time comes."
The old farmer reminded again.
Ren Yan smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, uncle, it's not a problem. I didn't come here to buy anything online."
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. If you really want to rent it, just pay me 3,000 a month." The old farmer nodded and quoted a price.
To be honest, this price is lower than Ren Yan expected.
This farm is at least one and a half acres in size, or about one thousand square meters.
Even though it has been abandoned for three years and weeds have grown around it, at least the place is still real.
If this happened somewhere else, or on a normal farm, if they couldn't make more than ten times the profit in a month, they would be considered losing money.
But I think this old man offered such a low price because he thought this place was dispensable and he could tolerate so many shortcomings...
Ren Yan had some guesses in his mind, and then he asked, "What about the deposit, sir? How is the deposit calculated? Is it still the old rule of one deposit and one payment?"
"What old rules..." The old man waved his hand nonchalantly, "Those are things you city folks use. We're afraid you'll damage things in the house."
"I don't have these worries, so don't worry about the deposit. It's troublesome."
"Thank you so much, uncle..." Ren Yan smiled, quickly took out 3,000 yuan in cash and handed it to the old farmer.
He had checked it out specifically. Mobile payment is convenient, but in these "wild mountains and wilderness", people still prefer cash.
After all, I don't know when my phone suddenly lost signal...
It will cause unnecessary trouble.
After seeing the money, the old farmer forced himself to write a receipt with Ren Yan, and then he put the 3,000 yuan into his pocket with peace of mind.
He also told Ren Yan that if she really encountered any inconvenience, she could contact him at any time.
A feeling of simplicity and kindness simply comes over you.
But just as he was about to turn around and leave, Ren Yan suddenly called the old farmer: "Uncle, do we have any livestock or poultry like cattle, horses, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, etc.?"
"I also need some seeds and other things, preferably the kind that matures easily."
"I do have these things, but do you really plan to spend this month doing farm work? These things are not something that any city dweller can get."
