After exchanging pleasantries, Liu Laoqi explained his intentions, "So you discuss it with the village, and give me a reply sometime."

"Hey, this is a great thing, the village only has to agree." Village head Ma seemed to be overjoyed. He said before that Liu Changgen was lucky. No, his luck has also come.

Liu Laoqi and Village Chief Liu were politely sent out of the village, and they went back, just waiting for their reply, anyway, there is no need to worry about their disagreement.

After waiting for a few days, Village Chief Ma and their village party secretary came to Taiping Village together.

Liu Laoqi was called by the village head, and on the way he was still thinking about the deal this time, so he had to ask the factory manager to prepare the contract and money.

After the negotiation here, we have to go to Dongguo Village again, but Dongguo Village must have the same result, so don't even think about it.

When we arrived at the village head's house, the village head Ma and their village party secretary really came.

"I'll trouble you to make a trip." Village Chief Ma was very polite.

Liu Laoqi is not a crazy person, and he is polite to others, "I should say this, please run for a while, hahaha."

As the host, Liu Changgen served sugar water.

Village Chief Ma stood up and took it, but regretfully said, "Hey, what a waste of such a good thing to entertain us two old fellows."

Liu Changgen was about to make some jokes, when he heard Village Chief Ma say: "Our village is really poor, we don't see this sugar water once a year, and the eggs are all saved up for sale, so I can't bear to eat them."

"Hey, a few eggs can't be sold for a lot of money, and they can be used to make up for it." Liu Changgen felt the same way. A few years ago, every household saved eggs to sell, but now there are very few.

"Our village is no different than yours. Our village has a smaller population and less land, and every household depends on the future of the land."

Village head Ma did not talk about business, which made Liu Laoqi a little impatient, and Liu Changgen was also puzzled, this old guy didn't hurry up to finalize the matter, so he was so energetic here.

"Major Ma, how is the discussion between you and the village about the land lease going?" Liu Laoqi couldn't bear it and asked directly.

The village party secretary of Nanping Village answered, "The land is our lifeblood. What will the villagers eat and drink after renting it out?"

Liu Laoqi: "...? No, the land to be rented does not have a few acres of arable land, right? Most of it is wasteland."

He had a premonition in his heart that something was going to happen in Nanping Village.

"Including the wasteland, there is only so much land in the village. Without land, the villagers have nothing to eat or drink when they are free."

"See if this works. We rent the land in our village and give us [-] workers in the factory." After the village chief Ma finished speaking, the village party secretary went on to say, "There is really no other way, hey..."

The two sang together, feeling that they were forced to do so. Who told them that their village is really small.

Liu Laoqi's face was ugly, "The land lease belongs to the land lease, and the workers belong to the workers. It's not the same thing."

"Hey, one thing and one thing, rented land for [-] workers, if you achieve your goal, we have a way out, it's the best of both worlds, why not do it?"

Liu Changgen's face turned down, "Old Ma, you are not kind. You came to me two days ago to inquire about the price of the contracted land, and I told you the truth. Are you asking for an additional [-] workers?"

At that time, Village Chief Ma came to inquire about the price that their Taiping Village contracted to Tang Jihai. He didn't hide it, and said everything, but Tang Jihai recruited workers from their village because of his love for going to the countryside in their Taiping Village before!

Why does Nanping Village ask for a worker quota?Just fifty more!
"Isn't it all about being poor?" Village Chief Ma was a little flustered, no matter how thick-skinned he was, "Fifty places are too many, forty is fine."

"The number of workers is not given just by saying, not everyone can be a worker." Liu Laoqi said in a calm voice, "Let's negotiate the price first, and let's put the matter of the number of workers first."

The village party secretary hurriedly said that he was afraid that the village chief would not be ashamed to say it, so he had to say it himself, "The price in Taiping Village is good. We still have a few acres of arable land, and we don't care about it. We just want a few workers."

Liu Laoqi kept silent, tapping his fingers on the table in thought.

The room became quiet, and no one spoke. Village head Ma and the village party secretary became more and more uneasy, and a layer of sweat broke out on their backs.

Just before they were sweating on their foreheads, Liu Laoqi said, "I can't decide this matter. I have to ask the leader for instructions. Go back and wait for news."

Back in Nanping Village, the village head Ma, the village party secretary, and several village elders were waiting at the house of the village head Ma. Seeing them coming back, they hurriedly asked, "How is it? Did they agree?"

The village party secretary shook his head, entered the room and closed the door, "Liu Laoqi only said to go back and ask the leader for instructions."

The village chief was worried, "What if they don't even take our land?"

"Isn't it appropriate to reduce the number of people?" The wrinkled old man Ma frowned, "Our ultimate goal is to get them to agree, and give priority to people from our village as workers. It's better to agree to the quota, and it doesn't matter if you don't."

Village head Ma looked dejected, "I said it, but it's only down to forty people, so they won't talk about it, and there's no time to make any further setbacks."

It is true that their village has little land, but the piece of land that Tang Jihai wants to contract is mostly wasteland, so it doesn't have much impact.

But they also want to have a few more workers in the village, and gradually bring the whole village to life. Now there is no one in the village who can make a difference except farming.

But I can't get up now at this juncture, and it will be difficult in the future.

That's why Mr. Ma came up with such a method of retreating to advance, and first put forward an unacceptable condition.

They refused and refused again, and the last one was sure to say yes.

It was a good idea at first, but I didn't expect that Liu Laoqi didn't talk to them at all.

"Only the few of us know about this. Don't tell anyone else before it's done." Mr. Ma's eyes were cloudy, and flashed from time to time.

Their plan was also afraid of dying, so they didn't tell the villagers. If the expectations are too high, the greater the disappointment, so it's better not to add to the troubles.

It doesn't matter if it fails, as long as the contracted land price remains unchanged and the contract can be successfully contracted out.

Although the people in their village are not smart enough, which is a shortcoming, but it is also an advantage. Most of these people are honest and willing to work and will not play tricks.

He is about to enter the coffin, and he can only do this for the village. I hope everything goes well.

Here Liu Laoqi and Liu Changgen are also discussing Nanping Village.

"Old Qi, what do you think Village Chief Ma is planning to do?" Liu Changgen wondered, puffing on his old pipe, "Fifty places are really a lion's mouth, and he is not afraid of choking."

Liu Laoqi narrowed his eyes, stared into the distance and said nothing. He was really angry at first. The discrepancy between expectations and reality was too big, completely unexpected, as if he had been slapped invisibly.
