Chu Yue turned back to look at Yun Dabao and the two people behind him.
"First uncle and second uncle, if we come back with another fifty acres of land, how many people from our farm will be able to take care of it?"
After all, I still have some money left in my hand. If the price is right, it would be good to buy more fields for farming. After all, food is the most important thing for people, and food prices have always been good.
She can't put all her eggs in one basket.
Yun Dabao thought for a while.
"If it's not a busy farming season, five people are usually enough."
Chu Yue nodded, "How about my uncle and uncle go to see those fields with Uncle Shui? I'll go back to Zhuangzi to discuss it with my mother first."
My eldest uncle and my second uncle are both good at farming, so it’s perfect to leave the farm affairs to them.
When they come back, they will consider the quality and price of the fields to see if they want to buy it.
The two of them nodded, then helped Shui Zhongliang to look at the fields.
When Chu Yue returned to the yard, Lu Dagui was cleaning the yard with a bamboo broom, while Yun Cuihe was wiping dust in the house with a rag.
Chu Wenzhu was also working gracefully next to her with a small rag.
Chu Yue entered the room and took the rag from Yun Cuihe, "Mom, let me do it. You go and have a rest first."
She washed the rag in the bucket and began to wipe it around the house.
Yun Cuihe stood up, rubbed her waist that was sore and swollen after having been bent for too long, and then looked outside with a puzzled look on her face.
"Yueyue, why are you back alone? Where are your uncle and uncle?"
Chu Yue kept moving her hands.
"Li Zheng from Shuiyue Village just came and asked us if we wanted to buy some land. I was thinking that the price of food has not been low in recent years, so I asked my uncle and uncle to follow me and take a look. If the price is right, I would like to Fifty acres of land in Shuiyue Village were purchased and merged into the village to be cultivated together, what do you think, mother?"
Yun Cuihe thought for a while and then said, "Just buy it. After all, you won't lose money if you buy the land. Not to mention that the grain you grow can be sold. It will be relatively easy to cash out in case of emergency in the future."
Two quarters of an hour later, Yun Dabao and Yun Chengcai also came back.
As soon as the two entered the door, they called loudly, "Niece-in-law."
Chu Yue, who was teaching Chu Wenzhu how to play jingle in the main room, heard the sound and hurriedly got up and went out.
"Uncle and uncle, have you seen those fields?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Cuihe also walked out of the room.
"I've seen it." Yun Dabao came to Chu Yue and Yun Cuihe, looked at the two of them and said, "The fields in Shuiyue Village are all very good. The fifty acres of fields are all concentrated in one place. It’s not far from our fields on Zhuangzi.”
"Uncle, do you have any inquiry?" Chu Yue asked.
Yun Dabao nodded hurriedly, "Asked, the average price of high-quality paddy fields is ninety taels of silver per acre. Originally, fifty acres of land cost a total of four hundred and fifty taels of silver. Uncle Shui said that if he bought it all, it would be counted as four hundred and twenty taels. "
Yun Cuihe was a little frightened.
"It costs so much money!"
Yun Chengcai stretched out a slap.
"Fifty acres of land, not five acres, it must be several hundred taels."
Chu Yue's eyes flashed with deep thought.
"I just made a rough calculation in the house. If there is no disaster, based on previous years' harvests, these 80 acres of land alone can produce about 200 taels of harvest every year. Adding the rest of the poultry and the pond, excluding the cost, It will take about two years to get back the investment, which is relatively quick.”
Yun Cuihe didn't object either.
"Sure, if you think it's suitable, then buy it. After all, your uncle and uncle will take care of the things here."
Chu Yue nodded.
"I still trust my uncle and my second uncle, otherwise I wouldn't have specially invited these two people here." Then he looked at Yun Dabao, "Uncle, where is Li Zheng from Shuiyue Village?"
Yun Dabao hurriedly replied, "He went to his house to get the deed and will be back later."
Chu Yue raised her head and looked at the sky. It was already the end of time.
"Then wait for him."
At this moment, Lu Dagui brought out two cups of warm water from the kitchen, "Uncles, please drink some water first."
The two took the water cup, thanked Lu Dagui, and drank the water in the cup.
About a quarter of an hour later, Shui Zhongliang led an honest and friendly man to the house.
This man's name is Shui Changgen. He is a single man. His parents died early and his family is poor. Now he is twenty-three and has not yet married a wife. Shui Zhongliang feels pity for him and sticks to him whenever anything good happens in the village.
"Doctor Chu, I've been waiting for a long time." Shui Zhongliang's face was full of apology.
Chu Yue looked at Shui Zhongliang with a smile.
"It's okay. Uncle Shui, did you bring everything?"
Shui Zhongliang nodded and hurriedly took out the deed from his arms, "These are blank deeds stamped by the government. You can use them by filling in your name."
Chu Yue took the blank deed from Shui Zhongliang's hand with surprise on her face.
"Why is there still a blank deed?"
In the past, when buying land, I had to sign a resale deed and then make a new land deed. Yuri Zheng went to the government to register and stamp the land with the official seal. This blank deed in Shuiyue Village is strange.
Shui Zhongliang quickly explained, "Doctor Chu doesn't know something. Our fields in Shuiyue Village have always had good harvests, so the government has paid special attention to it. In order to prevent the paddy fields from being left uncultivated, the government has specially granted special privileges this year."
Chu Yue nodded and did not dwell too much on this issue.
"I can take over the fields in Shuiyue Village, but I didn't bring so much money when I went out today. If Uncle Shui doesn't mind, we can sign the deed today first, and I will ask my uncle and uncle to bring the money the next day. come over."
There is no food in the village, and we have to buy some necessary things. My uncle and uncle will definitely follow him back to the town later.
Lu Dagui is going to the county town tomorrow, so he can only come over together the day after tomorrow.
Based on Chu Yue's current reputation among the people, Shui Zhongliang didn't think she would default on her debt. He nodded quickly and said, "Okay, I will sign the contract with Dr. Chu first. You will have someone bring the money to Shuiyue Village in the future." That is, I will come to Zhuangzi to pick it up myself."
Chu Yue pursed her lips and smiled.
"Old man Shui is so happy."
After the two signed the deed, Shui Zhongliang pulled Shui Changgen behind him to Chu Yue.
"Doctor Chu, this is the root of water. His parents died early and he started to be self-reliant at the age of five or six. This child is reliable and honest. If Dr. Chu needs someone in his village, you can consider this child. "
The main reason is that he wants to bring people to know each other in front of Chu Yue. At least they can think of him when they need people to do work. As for whether it succeeds in the end, it is not up to him.
Chu Yue nodded hurriedly, "Since it was recommended by Uncle Shui, I will definitely consider it if there is a need."
"Okay, then I won't waste Doctor Chu's time. We have to go back." After saying that, he bowed slightly to Chu Yue and others before leading Shui Changgen away.
Upon seeing this, Yun Dabao hurriedly stepped forward and sent Shui Zhongliang and the two to the entrance of the hospital.
"Uncle, walk slowly."
