Through the small days of farming

Chapter 41 Visiting the Village Chief

After letting out a bad breath, I slept more peacefully at night.

When I got up the next day to find the village chief to transfer the household registration to their village, when someone said that, his uncle was out of breath and cursed the black hands in the yard an hour.

"Oh, isn't this Akihito? Where are you going? You're still carrying so many things." There was an aunt who came to their house the day before yesterday, but there were too many people at that time, and he couldn't remember so many names , but I still have a little impression of him, because he speaks with a loud voice.

"Fifth Aunt, we are going to the village head's house. This is my friend. There is no one in his house. He plans to settle in our village head. I am going to take him to the village head." Chen Mingren said evasively, "We are still in a hurry, so let's go first."

When he got the information he wanted, Aunt Wu didn't make things difficult for him, and asked the three of them to go to the village head's house, saying to herself, "There should be other things besides registering. Carry so many things?"

"Mingren, don't you remember their names?" Bai Niannian said, "There were more than a dozen people who came to see you before, did you remember them all?"

"Probably remember." Chen Mingren nodded.

envious.Bai Niannian thought to himself, it would be great if he remembered too, otherwise it would be embarrassing to say the wrong name when chatting with others.

"Is the village chief at home?" Chen Mingren knocked on the door, and then shouted loudly, "I'm Mingren, I have something to ask the village chief."

"Come on, wait a minute."

"My father is at home, come in."

The one who opened the door was a handsome brother with some cute freckles on his cheeks and a gentle voice. Seeing that there were three of them, he was taken aback for a moment and then quickly realized that he led them in.

"When did Ming Ren come back?" The village chief sat on the kang, "Brother Yan, go and pour them a glass of water."

"I came back yesterday, this is our little thought."

"What do you want to see me? Come here, why do you want to buy something?" The village head said so, but when he saw the wine in his hand, his complexion improved a lot, and the weight of the snacks was not enough. Not lightly, the expression is more kind.

"What are you doing standing up? Sit down and let's talk slowly."

"It's right to respect the elders." Chen Mingren stood aside the things, poured water for their elder brother, and asked him to put them away, "It is true that we have something to trouble you when we come to you. This is my friend , Shen Wei, he originally lived in Daxing Village, but because no one in his family is here, and our village is beautiful, he wants to transfer his household registration to our village, I wonder if it is possible?"

Chen Mingren gave him a wink, and Shen Wei tactfully gave the things in his hand to his elder brother. Seeing the weight, the village head smiled with satisfaction, "Of course, I will report it for him some other day."

"Well, there is one more thing. We want to buy the land next to the house next to Chen Dahe. He is going to build a house there. I don't know how much it will cost. We also plan to buy the land next to our house. Come down and build a new house."

The village head thought for a while before he remembered where he was talking about, and said: "The land next to your house is fine, but the house not far from Chen Dahe's house, you have to ask the owner of that house first."

"Didn't they already move away? Will they move back?" Chen Mingren asked.

"That's not necessarily the case." The village chief said meaningfully, "That piece of land is a bit troublesome, do you want to change to another place? Their family has already bought that piece of land, so you have to go to them to buy that piece of land."

"No need, I want that piece of land," Shen Wei refused. He came here for Chen Mingren. If the two families live far apart, the relationship between the two families will gradually fade away. If you live close to each other, you can do anything. Help, "Village chief, where do they live now? In town?"

"They still live in the town." The village head replied, "They should live on Yamato Street. You can find the specific place by asking there. I haven't seen them for a long time."

"Well, I got it, I'll go find them later." Shen Wei said, "I also need to thank the village chief for your help."

"Hehe!" The village chief smiled, "Let's go now, it will take a lot of time to go back and forth."

"Aren, Brother Nian, then I'll go to the town first." Shen Wei said hello to the two of them and left. After disturbing him a few times, he felt that he would be hated to death by his boss.

"You go first, we still have things to do." Chen Mingren said that he would not go with him.

Now that they have returned to the village to live for a long time, they must have land. Excluding the money in the house for building the house and the money spent during this period, they still have nearly 20 taels of silver left, which is already their entire net worth. .

Of course, he put the money that Bai Niannian dug out from his uncle's house in the space, and he didn't plan to take it out. On the bright side, Dou Sprout's daily income is very good, so the little money in the space is kept. Treat it as his private money.

In their village, the good farmland cost about eight taels of silver per mu, the medium ones cost six taels of silver per mu, and the poor ones only needed three taels of silver.

It seems that the low-grade fields are the cheapest, but the low-grade fields have relatively poor land, and the annual harvest is much less than that of the other two grades, which is not worthwhile.

They made up their minds to buy all the high-quality fertile land. With their current economic ability, they can buy up to three acres of land.

Last night, the two of them discussed in the quilt. If they had something, they would buy three acres, and there was less than ten taels of silver left to build a house. They have a yard in the town to rent out, and they have income from bean sprouts, so there is no need to worry too much .

The wages for building the house are also paid once a day, not all at once. In this way, the money for building the house can be paid out of the profit from the bean sprouts.

"You two are buying land, right?" The village head stood up, glanced at Bai Niannian and said, "In this world, you should live on the land in peace and contentment. Any business in the town is useless."

Bai Niannian knew that the village chief didn't like him, so he didn't answer his words, and silently acted like a vase.

The village head lived in the village all his life, while his youngest son lived in the town. He wanted to take him to the town to enjoy the blessings, but he refused, and even asked him to go back to the village to live in.

In the past two years, I had a very tense fight with his youngest son, and it was only in the past two years that it eased. One insisted on living in the town, and the other insisted that he move back to the village to live.

"Well, so we came back to the village, we are not used to life in the town." Chen Mingren echoed.

"There are people who sell high-quality fields, how much do you want to buy?" The village chief took out a booklet and flipped through the pages, "There are not many people who sell fields, and you know that we spend our whole lives looking for food in the fields." Yes, if it’s not really difficult, who would sell the land?”

"Three mu, let's just buy three mu." Chen Mingren added, "It's not the best one, but the middle one is fine."

"There are high-quality fields, but you have to buy them together. Chen Lin's family is going to move to the town. They don't plan to keep the fields in the village, but he asks that they can't be sold apart. If you want to buy them, you have to buy them all." Yes, five acres in total."

"Because they are eager to sell, the price is also cheaper, 35 taels of silver."

One mu of land is cheaper than one tael of silver, and five mu of land is five taels of silver.The small calculations in Bai Niannian's heart are playing loudly, buy, buy, buy, definitely buy!

"If I could afford that much money, I would have bought it a long time ago. I don't know who is cheaper now?" The village chief sighed. The sons are all hardworking people, otherwise they would not have made money. When they moved to the town, the five-acre field was indeed a good field. They were carefully tended, and the annual output was higher than other people's.

35 The taels of silver is quite a lot of money. They can take it out, but after taking it out, they have no money to build the house. They have to save at least seven or eight taels of silver to buy the materials for building the house. The labor cost is paid out of the profit of Bean Sprouts.

If they really took out 35 taels of silver, their life would go back to the point of eating two meals a day, and they would not leave any money, and they would have nothing to do in case of any accident.

Seeing him hesitate for a moment, as if he was about to refuse, Bai Niannian kicked him lightly with his foot under the table.

Chen Mingren: What should I do?My wife seduced me again.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Bai Niannian stomped on him vigorously, seeing him look over, Bai Niannian made two mouth shapes to him, Shen Wei.

Wouldn't it be enough for the two of them to buy together?

If his man still doesn't understand what he means, Bai Niannian is going to give his waist a hard blow.

"Ahem." Chen Mingren coughed unnaturally, "I plan to buy it with my friend, okay?"

"Okay, have you brought any money? What they want is to sell them together, do you think I didn't ask?"

"It's just that we can't agree with that old guy, otherwise, do you think this bargain will be left to you?" The village head marked it on the notebook.

"We brought money." Chen Mingren replied, "But we didn't bring enough. We wanted to buy three acres and it would be enough."

"It's fine to go back and get it now, but I've made an agreement with you two in advance that you can't go back on your purchase. You and your friends should discuss the matter of land distribution. I don't care if you mess up." I bought it, but later felt that my share was less, and he had seen many cases of turning against each other. If you ask him, it is best to buy it alone.

Brothers can turn against each other for money, let alone friends.

Village head: "Why are you looking at me? Go home and get the money!"

Chen Mingren rubbed his nose, "Book the land next to our house first, and for the rest, I will go to apply for household registration and land deed with my friend tomorrow."

"Okay, you guys bring your money and come back tomorrow morning."

Shen Wei went there in the morning and came back at noon. He came back in an ox cart.

And not just one person came back.

He also brought two people back, one big and one small.
