- #156 - Chapter 156: Buying farmland (first update)
Early in the morning, Cui Hejin watched Zhi Luo go to town and stood at the door of his house looking at her figure for a long time.
They were going to work in the fields, but she looked at Cui Hejin a little absent-mindedly.
In the end, the child told her to go to the town.
She didn’t even understand what was going on, thinking that Cui Hejin was looking for Zhi Luo.
Unexpectedly, he came back not long after his trip and said that he had advanced this month’s monthly silver in advance for Zhi Luo.
Mrs. Cui sighed in her heart, He Jin still felt sorry for Zhi Luo.
Jiang Zhiluo looked at Cui Hejin, and for some reason, her nose felt sore.
My heart is full and swollen.
She knows that it is not that easy to advance monthly payment in advance.
It must be Cui Hejin’s promise again.
Jiang Zhiluo knew that this was Cui Hejin’s intention, and she couldn’t refuse.
If she refuses to accept it, it may hurt his self-esteem and make him think that she is too little.
Jiang Zhiluo calmed down, stretched out her hand to take it, and said with a crooked smile, “Then I’ll take it, so I can buy more land.”
Seeing Jiang Zhiluo’s happy look, Cui Hejin raised his eyebrows and breathed a sigh of relief, with a hint of gentleness on his face.
Old Mrs. Cui took Jiang Zhiluo to the Li Zheng family’s field.
At this time, Li Zheng, Zhu and their two sons were busy farming.
Mrs. Zhu was putting corn seeds into small pits. When she saw Mrs. Cui and Jiang Zhiluo, she quickly put down the things in her hands and said, “Oh, Sister Cui Zhiluo, why are you here?”
Mrs. Cui said: “Sister Zhu, let’s come to Brother Li Zheng to buy a few acres of land.”
Zhu was stunned, “Will this buy land?”
There were driving oxen to pull the plow, and Zhou Zhaoxi was holding the plow tool behind to prevent it from tilting.
The plowing tool creates furrows in the ground for easy placement of corn seeds.
Hearing Mrs. Cui’s words at this time, Li Zheng lowered his whip to drive the cattle, turned around and said, “Do you want to buy farmland?”
The Cui family has already built a house. If they buy land, they should also buy farmland.
Mrs. Cui nodded and said, “Yes, buy some farmland and grow more grain, otherwise it won’t be enough to eat.”
Zhu agreed very much and said: “It’s really time to buy more land. Your family only has one acre of land, which is still reclaimed land. The food grown is not enough to eat.”
Previously, only Cui Hejin and Mrs. Cui ate food. Now that there is Zhiluo, one acre of land is not enough.
Furthermore, that acre of land is reclaimed land, which is different from normal cultivated land.
First of all, the yield of grain grown in the land reclaimed is lower, and secondly, it cannot be disposed of at will. After a few years of planting, it will be owned by the county government.
Normal farmland is different. With a title deed, the land belongs to the individual once purchased. It can be bought, sold or rented out at will.
Zhu was happy for the Cui family.
Li Zheng looked at this family with sighs and sighs.
Just a short time later, the Cui family built another house and were able to buy land.
Looks like I made some money.
However, when someone in the village is in better condition, Li Zheng will also be happy. When others mention it, they will also say that Li Zheng manages the village well.
What’s more, his wife has a good relationship with the Cui family and a good relationship with the Jiang family.
He naturally also wants to help.
“It’s right to buy land. During the spring plowing, we can grow more food. It will be enough for the whole family.”
“You want to buy the land over there, I’ll help you mark it out and measure it.”
Jiang Zhiluo said: “Uncle Li Zheng, we want to buy two acres of land from the house to the valley, and three acres of land from the village to the town.”
This makes a total of five acres of land.
She had eleven taels of silver in her hand, and Cui Hejin gave her twenty taels of silver, which was thirteen taels of silver.
To buy five acres of the most common land, one acre of land costs two taels of silver. If you buy five acres of land in this way, you still have three taels of silver to spare. Earn a little more every day, enough to hire people to help cultivate the land.
When Jiang Zhiluo said this, not only Li Zheng and Mr. Zhu were shocked, but also their sons Zhou Zhaoxi and Zhou Zhaohe.
Five acres of land!
I thought the Cui family would buy one acre of land, but they didn’t expect that they would buy five acres of land.
For farmers, land is really important.
Having a field means being able to grow food and have enough to eat.
If you have land at home, you won’t feel panic, that’s the truth.
They must have spent a lot of money building a house before, but they didn’t expect they would have money to buy land.
Li Zheng came back to his senses and said: “These five acres of land are the worst kind of land. One acre of top-quality land can produce more than 400 kilograms of grain. This kind of land can only produce more than 100 kilograms of grain. Farm it well.” If so, maybe 200 pounds. Do you really want to buy that kind of land? “
“The price is cheap, but it’s a bit uneconomical.”
The shortage of so much food in one year is not economical for many years.
If the conditions were better, it would be natural to buy high-quality land.
Mrs. Cui was also a little hesitant, but she listened to Zhiluo and looked at Zhiluo, waiting for her to make up her mind.
Mrs. Zhu looked at Mrs. Cui’s expression and smiled. It seemed that she didn’t have to worry about Zhi Luo anymore.
It is indeed good for a mother-in-law to be willing to listen to her daughter-in-law’s opinions.
It can be seen that Zhiluo has a status in the Cui family.
Jiang Zhiluo said with a firm expression: “Thank you, Uncle Li Zheng, for your advice. I really want to buy these five acres of land.”
She is not worried about low production at all.
Although there are not many potato seeds in the space, and one and a half acres of land are planted in the space, when the potatoes mature, there will be a yield of three thousand kilograms.
She also placed her home’s corn, soybean and peanut seeds in the space.
After being nourished by the aura of space, if it is cultivated, the yield will be much higher.
Don’t worry about the problem of poor land.
Mrs. Cui also nodded and said, “Well, let’s buy the land like this.”
Looking at Jiang Zhiluo’s firm attitude, Li Zheng understood.
He let his younger son and his wife continue to work on the land, while he took his eldest son Zhou Zhaoxi to help the Cui family buy the land.
After finishing the work, it’s noon.
Jiang Zhiluo’s family went home for lunch first.
Jiang Zhiluo said: “After lunch, I will go to the Yamen in the afternoon to get a seal and exchange for the red deed.”
Mrs. Cui had an excited smile on her face, “I didn’t expect that our family would suddenly gain five acres of land.”
“The villagers will probably discuss it if they find out.”
Jiang Zhiluo said: “Let’s discuss it. What we bought is barren land, so it won’t be too eye-catching.”
Mrs. Cui nodded and said, “Well, that’s true, but no matter what kind of land it is, it belongs to our family. Thinking of being able to produce more food, my mother is happy and feels energetic all over.”
She wished she could plant all those fields with food right away.
After Mrs. Cui washed her hands, she said, “By the way, Zhiluo, whatever you want to eat for lunch, mother will make it for you.”
She learned some cooking skills from Jiang Zhiluo and can now cook. Although her cooking is not as delicious as Zhiluo’s, she thinks it should be okay.
Jiang Zhiluo pointed to a water basin next to her and said, “Mom, I bought a grass carp this morning. It just so happened that my mother gave her sauerkraut last time. Let’s make sauerkraut and fish noodles.”
Mrs. Cui was stunned, “Sauerkraut and fish noodles?”
This was the first time she heard this statement.
Fish can also be made into noodles?
