Huang Dong and Tian Liang exchanged glances with each other, with a smile on their lips.
The two of them sat down peacefully and drank tea wholeheartedly.
Zhang Hebin and Xie Dewen counted each other for a while and came to Huang Dong.
The two of them bowed their hands to Huang Dong and said, "Pavilion Chief, this method is feasible."
"Not only is it feasible, but it's also very good. If we interact with each other like this, isn't it like turning hostility into friendship?" After saying that, Huang Dong couldn't help laughing.
Zhang Hebin and Xie Dewen's eyes lit up. It turned out that the two Zhuangzi had no contact with each other in life and death.
It's good now. Not only has the water source problem been solved, but also the land has been exchanged with each other. Even if we don't want to communicate, we can't do it.
Zhang Hebin's eyes lit up, he bowed his hand to Xie Dewen and asked: "Zihua (Xie Dewen), how much land do you plan to exchange?"
"I want to open a big teahouse. I wonder if ten thousand acres is enough?" Xie Dewen thought for a while, bowed his hands, and looked at Zhang Hebin longingly.
They only have two workshops in Xiejiazhuang, while Zhangjiazhuang has six workshops.
Since the quantity is insufficient, the only way is to compare the scale.
The only hope now is to make the teahouse bigger. Naturally, the bigger the tea mountain, the better.
Otherwise, he would have no way to explain to the elders.
Zhang Hebin's old face was so happy that he almost turned into a chrysanthemum. He used to be worried about only having land on the hillside, but he didn't expect that the other party would exchange 10,000 acres of land.
He hurriedly bowed his hands and said, "Zi Hua, this is exactly what I wanted."
After saying that, he couldn't help laughing, and Xie Dewen also laughed happily.
After the two laughed, they congratulated each other.
Huang Dong breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a satisfied smile on his face: "Two clan leaders, please sign the agreement now."
There are four copies of this agreement, one for each Zhuangzi, and the other one is in the hands of the government and Zhaojiazhuang.
The agreement was not only signed by the heads of both clans, but also stamped with the seals of both clan heads and officials. Tian Liang also signed as a witness, making it official.
Take effect.
After the agreement came into effect, the two clan leaders, Xiejiazhuang and Zhangjiazhuang, and Huang Dong and Tian Liang had different reactions.
The happiest thing is that Huang Dong and Tian Liang have completely solved the Xiehe Pavilion matter, and their political performance has improved.
Zhang Hebin's harvest is also good. Zhangjiazhuang has jointly established six workshops with Zhaojiazhuang. Now the water source problem has been solved, and three thousand acres of fertile land have been exchanged for it.
The most disappointing thing is that Xie Dewen only jointly runs two workshops with Zhaojiazhuang, and he was forced to exchange 3,000 acres of fertile land for 10,000 acres of hillside land.
This is a dilemma. Without 10,000 acres of tea gardens, Xiejiazhuang and Zhaojiazhuang would not be able to jointly establish a teahouse.
Fortunately, the exchange conditions between the two parties were based on grain production, which was basically fair and equitable.
Xie Dewen's pain did not lie in the exchange of fertile land for land, but in the number of workshops being left behind by Zhangjiazhuang.
Xiejiazhuang Assembly Hall.
Xie Dewen naturally picked it up first and said that these elders were naturally happy when they heard that there were two workshops.
Xie Dewen originally promised one workshop, but now he has two workshops, so he has naturally exceeded the task.
"What, we need to use 3,000 acres of fertile farmland to convert 10,000 acres of land, no, no." Xie Deren was the first to jump out.
Xie Deyi immediately followed up, spitting everywhere: "Xiejiazhuang can be what it is today because of fertile farmland. Without fertile land, what is Xiejiazhuang?"
"That is the inheritance of our ancestors, and we cannot just destroy it on our generation." Xie Deli beat his chest.
Xie Dezhi even shouted: "If these three thousand acres of fertile land are converted, I will be hit by the doorpost and die."
"Without three thousand fertile fields, I will hang myself here." Xie Dexin was not to be outdone and looked up to the sky with a tragic look on his face.
Xie Deshu moved his mouth, looked at Xie Dewen complexly, but finally said nothing.
Xie Dewen patted the table beside him and glanced at the elders coldly: "That's enough."
"You think that I don't know and still want to live with 50% of the land rent. Just dream."
"Didn't you see? All the shacks in the sewage ditch have been moved away. Those who have not been moved are also making a living in the Zhaojiazhuang workshops. How much is their salary? At least one copper coin a month. These poor guys can earn 50% of the land rent in a year How much is it, just two or three copper coins."
Xie Deli said unconvinced: "Chief, no matter how many workshops there are, they can't accommodate so many people. I believe that after the main road is repaired, how will they still survive?"
"Short-sighted. Are there more people in Xiehe Pavilion or Zhaojiazhuang Town?" Xie Dewen looked at him, with a sarcastic smile on his lips, and asked coldly.
Xie Deli licked his dry lips, his throat moved, and he asked with difficulty: "Of course there are many people in Zhaojiazhuang."
"Is Zhaojiazhuang Town richer or Xieheting?" A joking smile appeared on Xie Dewen's face.
Xie Deli replied in a dry voice: "Of course Zhaojiazhuang is wealthy."
"Is there more land in Zhaojiazhuang Town or in Xiehe Pavilion?" Xie Dewen looked at him with bright eyes and asked coldly.
Xie Deli didn't want to answer this question, but Xie Dewen forced him.
He licked his chapped lips again and replied dryly: "Of course it's the fields in Xiehe Pavilion."
"Zimao (characterized by Xie Deli) is right." Xie Dewen nodded, "Zhaojiazhuang has less land than Xieheting, but they are far richer than Xieheting. What they rely on is the workshop."
After speaking, he patted the table table next to him: "You are still clinging to the old days. You must know that this is no longer an era where income is determined by farmland. No matter how much farmland is used, it will not be as useful as a workshop."
"Patriarch, these old men also know," Xie Deli's head and eyes darted around, and he quickly figured out a way to deal with it, "The center of gravity of Zhaojiazhuang is in Zhaojiazhuang Town, not Xiehe Pavilion."
"Bullshit," Xie Dewen couldn't help but vomit, "Isn't Xiehe Pavilion from Zhaojiazhuang Town?"
"I admit that Xiehe Pavilion is also from Zhaojiazhuang Town." Xie Deli was still quibbling and kept making noises, "But didn't you take care of Xiehe Pavilion before?"
"You have to eat one bite at a time, and you have to do things one by one." Xie Dewen stared at him coldly, "Isn't the price Zhaojiazhuang Town has paid for Xiehe Pavilion a small price? Building reservoirs, building roads, building government offices, and building residential communities. , set up large-scale workshops, and provide relief to poor households.”
"Zhaojiazhuang is rich and has the ability." Xie Deli said in a loud voice.
Xie Dewen looked at him with bright eyes: "Zhaojiazhuang has some abilities, but it will cost a lot. It is expected to be at least ten thousand copper coins."
"You know, this is not a meeting of the imperial court. Moreover, it is difficult to see the effect in the short term despite the huge investment."
"What is the picture of Zhaojiazhuang? What is the name of the picture? Zhaojiazhuang is not famous yet. I am afraid that the whole world and even the Hu people know Zhaojiazhuang."
"What the picture is, of course it is for the good of Xiehe Pavilion. This is because Xiehe Pavilion is also part of Zhaojiazhuang Town, and Zhaojiazhuang certainly wants to build Xiehe Pavilion into a paradise on earth."
Xie Dewen said that his mouth was dry, so he picked up the tea cup and drank it in one gulp.
The maid saw that there was no tea in Xie Dewen's teacup and hurriedly made him another tea.
Xie Deyi stood up at this time: "Chief, I agree to run the tea house, but three thousand acres of fertile land is too much. A thousand acres of tea mountain is enough."
"Ziyi (Xie Deyi), what kind of tea are you drinking now?" Xie Dewen said with a sarcastic smile on his lips.
Xie Deyi looked at the tea cup in his hand and said proudly: "What I drink is Zui Chunfeng."
"Ziyi, why don't you drink group tea?" A joking smile appeared on Xie Dewen's face.
Xie Deyi's face almost turned the color of pig liver, and he said in a nagging tone: "Who is willing to drink Tuancha if you are used to drunken spring breeze?"
"Which one is more expensive, Tuancha or Zui Chunfeng?" Xie Dewen did not let him go, staring at him with bright eyes.
Xie Deyi licked his dry lips and said in a dry voice: "Of course it's Zui Chunfeng."
"What's the difference between the two prices?" Xie Dewen stared at him and said.
Xie Deyi glanced around and smiled bitterly: "The price difference is five to ten times."
"Zi Yi, since the price is so high, why do you still want to get drunk on the spring breeze?" Xie Dewen pressed forward step by step.
Xie Deyi's face suddenly turned the color of pig liver, and he said in a dry voice: "There is no comparison between the two."
"What Ziyi said makes sense." Xie Dewen said with a sarcastic smile on his lips and glanced around, "Others also understand this truth. Everyone doesn't drink group tea, and they all get drunk on the spring breeze."
After hearing this, everyone stopped talking, hugged their teacups, and drank in the spring breeze.
"Patriarch, I know this is for the good of Xiejiazhuang." Xie Deren sighed, "Xiejiazhuang has produced land and tea mountains, but Zhaojiazhuang actually accounts for the majority."
"The big head, this old man admits it." A sarcastic smile appeared on Xie Dewen's face, "Then if you cooperate with Tuancha Workshop, you can take the big head yourself, okay?"
"This, this." An embarrassed smile appeared on Xie Deren's face, but he found that smiling was uglier than crying, "Can the patriarch fight for more?"
"Strive for more? Are you dreaming?" Xie Dewen said with a joking smile, "If Zhaojiazhuang wasn't for Xiehe Pavilion, they wouldn't have to set up a teahouse here. They are still worried about technology leakage."
Xie Deren's eyes lit up: "Clan leader, can we get this technology?"
"It's useless. The tea is made by Zhaojiazhuang. No outsiders are allowed to participate at all. They only participate in the dividends." Xie Dewen glared at him and said coldly.
Xie Deqiu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Clan leader, this technology was invented by Zhaojiazhuang, and of course it will not be spread to outsiders. I have no objection to Xiejiazhuang sitting back and enjoying the results. But there is one thing that makes me feel a little blocked in my heart."
"Why do you feel a little blocked in your heart?" Xie Dewen felt a little unhappy. He didn't expect that just after he had calmed down the opinions of these elders, someone else would jump out.
Xie Deqiu licked his dry lips and said with difficulty: "Patriarch, Xie Jiazhuang has been overwhelming Zhang Jiazhuang for hundreds of years. I didn't expect that in just three months, Zhang Jiazhuang would be overpowered."
"That is, the two Zhuangzi thought that they were suppressing Zhangjiazhuang. Unexpectedly, they are now suppressed by Zhangjiazhuang. Where can I put my ancestor's face?" Xie Dexia also said at this time.
Not to be outdone, Xie Dechun said: "Clan leader, the descendants of Xie Family Village are unfilial and are now being overpowered by a group of farmers. It is really shameful."
"They are all Zhuangzi from Zhaojiazhuang Town. Why are they being crushed by Zhangjiazhuang?" Xie Deyi also jumped out at this time.
