"Xiaoyun, this is your Uncle Minhua, do you still remember?" Second Grandpa pointed at the middle-aged man and said.
When Chen Xiaoyun saw the person coming, he felt familiar and immediately said, "Why can't you remember, Uncle Minhua!"
"Uncle Minhua!" Chen Xiaohu also said hello.
"Xiaoyun, you have changed. If you were walking on the street, your uncle and I would not dare to recognize you." Chen Minhua said with a smile.
"Come here and sit down!" Chen Xiaoyun stood up and moved the chair out.
"Xiaohu, you don't go to help your parents. As soon as we meet, they scold you." Chen Minhua said to Chen Xiaohu with a smile.
"Uncle Minhua, don't I just want to take advantage of my youth to make my own way!" Chen Xiaohu said with a simple smile.
"Your Uncle Minhua heard that you were back and wanted to rent a litchi garden and fish pond. He drove back from the city immediately." Second grandfather Chen Jianwen said to Chen Xiaoyun.
Then he turned to Chen Minhua and said, "Minhua, you are his uncle, take care of him."
"Second uncle, we are an ancestor and we haven't released the fifth server yet. How could I cheat my nephew?" Chen Minsheng said quickly.
His father and Chen Xiaoyun's grandfather and second grandfather were cousins.
His grandfather and Chen Xiaoyun's ancestor were brothers. He dared to trick Chen Xiaoyun. He was not allowed to have his back poked in the village? !
Not allowed to be pointed at and scolded behind your back?
"Uncle Minhua, just pay the normal price, and you won't suffer a loss," Chen Xiaoyun said.
Chen Minhua smiled and said: "You kid, are you still afraid that your uncle and I will suffer a loss?"
"This lychee garden and fish pond were all casually invested when I was fishing at home. These years of absence have left them unused, and they are still making losses here."
"There is no one in the village to take over. If you can take over and rent it, I will be happy before it is too late."
Chen Xiaoyun nodded. It was indeed true. If it was left idle here, it would always be a loss. If he took it over, he could still make some money back.
"The lychee garden is my family's land, and I don't have to rent it to others. However, the fish pond and the ten or twenty acres of wasteland behind your house are all rented by me. I used to plan to raise fish, ducks, and eels. "
It turns out that the wasteland behind was also rented by Uncle Minhua.
"It was rented for thirty years, and now there are still twenty-three years left. I have to pay rent every year. Now your aunt is scolding you a lot." Chen Minhua sighed.
"Uncle Minhua, how much do you plan to charge for subletting?" Chen Xiaoyun asked.
"Forget it, just give me 30,000 yuan. From now on, you have to pay the annual rent yourself. The rent for the fish pond and more than 20 acres of wasteland is 5,000 yuan. It was relatively cheap at that time.
For my lychee garden, you can just give me a rent of 2,000 yuan a year. "
Chen Minhua did not open his mouth like a lion, but gave a reasonable price.
A lychee garden of more than ten acres costs 2,000 yuan a year, or 200 yuan per acre, which is considered very cheap.
Chen Xiaoyun nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you Minhua for taking care of me."
The matter was settled in a few words and a sublease contract was signed, and there was no drama about relatives cheating on relatives.
After Chen Xiaoyun transferred the money, from this moment on, the lychee garden, fish pond, and wasteland behind became his.
Chen Minhua sat for a while, then said goodbye and returned to the city.
Second grandfather Chen Jianwen didn't even stay for dinner with him. He was busy with work in the city, so he made this trip just because Chen Xiaoyun was his nephew.
Otherwise, he doesn’t care about the rent he pays every year.
"Second Grandpa, what are Uncle Minhua doing in the city and rushing back in such a hurry?" Chen Xiaoyun asked curiously.
"Your uncle Minhua opened a processing factory in the city. The profits were pretty good. He made some money and bought a house in the city. Even your grandpa Jiandong moved to the city." Second grandfather Chen Jianwen said.
"No wonder!" Chen Xiaoyun nodded.
If someone else wanted to rent these ten acres of lychee garden, five or six acres of fish ponds, and more than twenty acres of absurdity, the transfer fee would not be less than fifty thousand.
Second grandfather Chen Jianwen immediately said: "If you want to raise chickens, ducks and geese, you have to build a fence and build several chicken and duck houses."
“But people in the village can do these things, you just need to buy some materials.”
"I know, Second Grandpa, I want to trouble you to go to the village to hire people tomorrow. I'll pay for the work and I won't let the villagers work in vain." Chen Xiaoyun nodded to express his understanding.
"Will we start work tomorrow? OK!" Second Grandfather Chen Jianwen nodded.
"Brother Xiaoyun, why do you raise chickens, ducks and geese? Raising these now is not very profitable and takes time to manage." Chen Xiaohu didn't understand why Chen Xiaoyun raised these.
They just go out fishing for a day, and their income is tens of thousands, and they are relatively leisurely.
"You can raise it to feed yourself, can't you?!" Chen Xiaoyun glanced at Chen Xiaohu.
"You can feed yourself on such a large scale!" Chen Xiaohu was a little confused.
They also built a fence and built chicken coops and duck coops, which obviously wouldn't be enough for hundreds of people.
We had a casual dinner, it was hot and we couldn't eat much.
After dinner, Chen Xiaohu came over here with Chen Xiaoyun again.
"Brother Xiaoyun, when are we going to catch frogs? I have agreed with the fans that we will start a live broadcast to play jungle in the evening." Chen Xiaohu's eyes were impatient.
"What's the hurry? Let's take a rest first and go back at eight o'clock." Chen Xiaoyun lay comfortably on the recliner and played fast music.
There were many frogs in the wasteland behind his house, and they kept croaking at night. (Parallel world, there are many frogs, no need to protect^-^)
Frog is their name. Like frogs and bullfrogs, they all belong to the frog family.
The colors include black, brown, gray, off-white, black-gray, gray-green, etc.
It is called a frog because it lives in fields. It is very similar to a bullfrog, but not as big as a bullfrog.
Stir-fried frogs and frog soup are rare delicacies. When Chen Xiaoyun and the others were young, they would get them at any time.
Now that piece of wasteland has been rented by him, and the fish, shrimp, and eels there are all his.
At eight o'clock, the two of them took the flashlights and went to the barren field behind.
In this wasteland, some fields still have water in them, and the ditches are crisscrossed, like a small swamp.
"Brother Xiaoyun, hurry up, there is a huge eel here." Chen Xiaohu, who was live broadcasting, shouted.
"Family members, have you seen that such a big eel weighs half a catty? I used to only think about live fishing and forgot that there are eels in this field." Chen Xiaohu's mobile phone camera was pointed at the ditch.
In the ditch, there are intertwined aquatic plants. An eel, estimated to be about half a catty, is hiding on the aquatic plants, preparing to hunt small fish and shrimps.
"I'll catch you if you can!"
Chen Xiaoyun was speechless. He grew up catching fish and shrimps, but he still dared not catch an eel?
"I'm afraid I'll be caught and run away!" Chen Xiaohu explained.
"If it runs away, then it's not destined to die." Chen Xiaoyun said lightly.
In front of him, a frog, about half the size of a fist, was squatting on a field stalk. He was shining a flashlight on it and could not move.
He grabbed it, quickly and accurately, and caught the big frog in his hand.
By the time the fat stupid frog reacted and tried to escape, it had already fallen into the clutches of the devil.
"Why are these frogs so big now?" Chen Xiaoyun was a little surprised.
Such a big frog only existed when they were young.
"A few years ago, the higher authorities issued a ban on new energy electricians. If you catch someone within five years, they will start. In addition, there will be rewards for reporting. The starting price is 5,000 yuan, and there is no cap. Then no one dares to play that stuff."
“Nowadays, there are many uncultivated fields, and many of them don’t grow rice, so less fertilizers and pesticides are used.
Almost all the young people in the village have gone out, and the old people don't like to catch this thing. "Chen Xiaohu held the big eel in his hand and said.
Putting the frog and eel into a mesh bag, Chen Xiaohu's live broadcast room was also full of excitement.
"Wow, such a big eel and such a big frog make me feel like I was a kid again."
"It's true. Just looking at it reminds me of going to the fields to catch eels, loaches, shrimps and frogs when I was a kid."
"The strict crackdown on electricians now has indeed restored the ecology of many places. Last year when I went back to my hometown, I also went to the fields to catch eels and loaches. They were very big."
"Watching the anchor and photographer hunting eels and frogs in the wild makes me feel so good. I really want to join in."
"Look, family, this big frog is getting fat." Chen Xiaohu said through the lens of his mobile phone towards a big frog that was estimated to be three or four in size.
In this wasteland, there were not only eels, loaches, frogs, but also snakes. Chen Xiaoyun found several of them.
Chen Xiaohu also avoided snake (snake) during his live broadcast. This game appeared in the live broadcast room, which caused discomfort to some people.
If someone reports maliciously, they will probably be banned.
"Quick, photographer, there's a big frog in front of you."
“Photographer, there’s a giant eel in the ditch!”
"Why do I look like Snake?"
"I think you want to harm the photographer, that's Snake, he can bite."
“I really want to go to them and catch big fish with them, eels and frogs.”
Chen Xiaohu's live broadcast room is very popular, with nearly two thousand people watching.
…
Every few steps, you can see frogs squatting on field stalks and ditch ridges.
Some even squat together.
In a short time, the two of them caught more than twenty large frogs, each costing about three taels. They were too lazy to catch the small ones.
I also caught a dozen eels, all about two or three in size.
That’s a lot to gain in a little while, that’s all.
It seemed that the products in this wasteland were pretty good. Chen Xiaoyun saw a lot of snails in the ditch, so he would come and catch some for frying some other day.
Moreover, it seems that these ditches were dug out deliberately, fifty centimeters wide and crisscrossed.
I think Uncle Minhua once fished it out when he wanted to raise eels in the wild.
"Let's go back, this is enough to eat!" Chen Xiaoyun shouted when he saw that it was almost done.
