Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 145 Buying a Jade Plate (25)

The rent has increased several times.

It increased from one hundred to five hundred.

The villagers were stunned.

Because Xu Yue can completely keep his price unchanged.

They also didn't expect Xu Yue to rise.

After all, Xu Jiangze's three families who asked for a rent increase were driven away by Xu Yue, and the land they rented was returned to them so that they could rent it to others.

If I rent it to those people for 500 yuan, how long can I keep it?

They didn't think Xu Yue would raise the price.

The one who offered 500 yuan per mu per year only rented for one year, and only rented about ten mu.

Xu Yue rented for a longer period of time and rented more.

"Xiao Yue, there's really no need." Xu Jiangjing said, "Uncle San just said, 500 per mu, it's too hot for us to handle."

"Yep!"

Many people echoed.

The land, which no one would cultivate even if it was given away, costs five hundred yuan per acre, so it's really a bit hot to handle.

One hundred and ten acres, they all felt it was too high.

Just like at the beginning Xu Jiangjing and Li Juemin didn't want to accept money, but later they had no choice but to offer fifty, but Xu Yue forced a hundred on them.

"We eat meat at home, so I can't let you go without soup, right?" Xu Yue said with a smile, "Although the cost has increased a lot, it's completely within our tolerance. However, don't be too happy for long. The rent has increased, which means the penalty for breach of contract will be higher. In the future, I won't be as easy to talk to as I was this time."

"Five hundred per mu per year, that family basically earns several thousand per year?"

“That seems like a lot!”

"The penalty for breach of contract is higher? We never thought of breaching the contract!"

"Renting the land to others? Only a fool would do that!"

"Xiao Yue is sending us money!"

Xu Chengmin didn't say anything, but looked at Xu Yue with a smile.

I was still shocked inside.

One acre earns an extra four hundred yuan a year, so two or three hundred acres would earn more than one hundred thousand yuan.

The annual cost is more than 100,000 yuan higher!

How much does each family in the village earn in a year?
"Let's re-sign the contract later." Xu Yue said, "However, paying the rent for twenty years in one lump sum is a bit difficult. How about paying it every five years?"

Two or three hundred acres, that’s more than 100,000 yuan a year.

In twenty years, that would be two or three million.

Xu Yue could naturally come up with this money.

But that's not necessary.

He also didn't think of showing off his financial resources in front of the villagers.

Didn’t I just say that the price of vegetables is high, but the cost is also high. There is profit, but not as much as imagined.

What's more, if every household really took tens of thousands of yuan, how could the other people in the village bear this shock? Wouldn't they trample on Xu Yue's doorstep?

Too much trouble.

The villagers naturally have no objection to the payment being made every five years.

After the contract is re-signed, you can still get the money!

"Also, I guarantee that at least one person from each of your households will work for me," Xu Yue said. "Let's raise everyone's salary by 500! People from other villages can offer 3,000 or 2,500, so I, Xu Yue, can do the same."

"Xiao Yue!"

Several people seemed to be hesitant to speak, their faces conflicted.

Who doesn’t want a pay raise?

They naturally want to.

But they were afraid that Xu Yue would suffer losses.

If Xu Yue had no money to earn, where would they find such a good job?

Just the salary alone is probably over 100,000 yuan a month now.

"It's okay. I was actually planning to increase the rent and wages anyway."

Xu Yue waved his hand and said with a smile.

The villagers left one after another, smiling, but Xu Chengmin was kept by Xu Yue. "Is it really not a loss?" Xu Chengmin asked, rather worriedly.

If they have to pay compensation, it will obviously not be a good thing for the village.

If we lose money, it means we can’t continue.

"Don't worry." Xu Yue said, "How can I do something that loses money? Oh, Fourth Grandpa, I plan to rent some more land!"

"Repay the rent?" Xu Chengmin asked. "Five hundred per mu per year?"

"Right!" Xu Yue said, "Then we won't have trouble selling vegetables. Naturally, we can rent more land and hire more people."

"Are we still renting next to each other?" Xu Dashan suddenly said, "Then won't it be my family's turn this time?"

"It's my turn!" Xu Yue said with a smile, "It's more convenient to rent next to each other. Of course, if someone doesn't want to, there's nothing we can do."

Not willing?
I'm afraid only a fool would not be willing to do that.

Xu Dashan was collecting mushrooms at Xu Yue's house, so naturally he didn't leave with the villagers.

"That's good!" Xu Dashan said with a smile.

His family has more than ten acres of land.

There are nearly ten acres of vegetable fields next to Xu Yue.

That’s nearly five thousand a year.

You can get paid just by lying down.

Plus his salary.
"Then, can my wife come to work here?" Xu Dashan asked a little embarrassedly, "She's very nimble."

"Yes!" Xu Yue nodded.

"How much are you looking for?" Xu Chengmin asked. "We're seeing rent increases, salary increases, land rentals, and hiring staff. We've also leased a few hills over at the fishing center to plant flowers. Are you sure the funds are okay?"

"Let's start with a hundred acres!" Xu Yue said, "After all, we'll probably be harvesting rice next month. As for funding, there's no problem."

"Okay, I'll go talk to the villagers," Xu Chengmin said. "I guess someone's nagging me again."

What are you nagging about?
Naturally, he wanted to rent the land to Xu Yue.

When the price of one mu of land was one hundred yuan per year, there were many people there, not to mention the current price of five hundred yuan per mu of land.

"From far to near." Xu Yue said with a smile, "Maybe one day I'll rent all the other land in the village. Aren't they going to plant flowers at the fishing center? I guess they'll hire people there too."

Xu Chengmin left to help Xu Yue solve the land rental issue.

"I'm going to the city to sort out the contracts. Do you want to go with me?" Xu Yue looked at Zhang Ruoxi and asked.

"I'll forget it!" Zhang Ruoxi said, "I'll go walk around the fields later."

Xu Yue nodded, said hello to his parents, and then drove to the city.

Xu Jiangming and his wife didn't say anything about Xu Yue's rent and salary increase.

That's good.

What's wrong with eating meat at home and giving some soup to the villagers?
Xu Yue arrived in the city quickly, and the contract matter was actually very simple.

Increase the rent from a one-time payment of twenty years to a five-year payment.

The contract was settled, but Xu Yue was not in a hurry to go back.

I first walked around outside the Chuanlai Hotel and then found a jade shop.

"Hey, Brother Yue!"

As Xu Yue walked into the jade shop, he heard a familiar voice.

"Lu Zhenyu?"

Xu Yue called out the other person's name with some uncertainty.

Xu Yue had only seen this man twice, once when he went fishing in Qinglongtan with Wang Haolin and others.

One time was when a fishing center opened and he came to support it.

However, he didn't seem to fall into the trap.

At least his addiction to fishing is not as strong as Wang Haolin and the others.

Xu Yue rarely communicated with him.

"What does Brother Yue want to buy?" Lu Zhenyu said with a smile, "I'll give you a discount on the expensive ones, and I can give you the cheap ones directly. Although this is my own store, this is the only right I have."

Is this a right?
"I'd be embarrassed to take it for free." Xu Yue said with a smile, "I want to see if there are any jade plaques, the kind that haven't been carved. Any jade will do."

"We have dozens and hundreds of them," Lu Zhenyu said, "and thousands and tens of thousands of them. What kind do you want, Brother Yue?"

"Can I take a look first?" Xu Yue asked.
