Chapter 154 Expansion of industries
The Gu family didn't believe this at all, and the Lu family was also skeptical. They always felt that they had gone to other places secretly, otherwise they had never seen anyone go to the mountains for such a long time before.
But there is no evidence, and nothing can be done.
The Lu family were willing to be pawns, and asked with a smile if they found anything valuable in the mountains? Why don't you take it out and open your eyes for everyone! Let everyone see and see.
Zhao Liya, Hu Ling and others naturally would not pay attention to such people.
Are you kidding, don't care what you found in the mountain, what has it to do with you? Why take it out to open your eyes?
Aunt Lu smiled and said, "Oh, it's not that you didn't go into the mountains at all, and went to other places to do business and make money with some big boss, right? There's nothing hard to say about it, they are all from their own village, and we don't know how to say it." Go out. We still expect you to bring everyone together to make money."
Aunt Lu's words actually resonated with some people. Some people may be fishing in troubled waters to watch the excitement, but more people should really think so.
How good it is to make money, everyone's life will be easier.
Last winter, I made money growing vegetables, which made everyone taste the sweetness.
Zhao Liya was about to say this at first, but Aunt Lu opened her mouth, right in the middle of her heart, and she didn't even have the opening words.
"Why go elsewhere? Nothing! We are all exiles, don't talk nonsense about going elsewhere, you will be punished! If you want to make money, my father told the big boss a few years ago. A letter came from heaven, no, it has been promised, and our village can also make money."
One stone stirs up waves.
Everyone boiled instantly.
"Really? Haha, that's great!"
"I knew that Mr. Zhao was kind. If there is a good thing, I will definitely not forget all of us."
"That's right, Xiaoya, tell everyone quickly, what can you do to make money?"
"Yes, what did the big boss say? Tell us quickly!"
Aunt Lu turned the building upside down when she saw Zhao Liya's words. How can anyone remember the topic she raised? Feeling anxious, he blurted out: "Don't think too much, don't forget that we are exiles, how can we do business! Don't let the government know and punish people!"
Zhao Liya smiled and said: "What is this talking about? Who said it's a business? Isn't the future of the land not allowed to be sold, or to help people cultivate the land? If this is not allowed, how can everyone make money? You have to eat oil and salt sauce You have to make vinegar by yourself, you have to make clothes yourself, and if you get sick, you have to be a doctor to prescribe medicine? If your family doesn’t like it, then you just don’t do it, don’t blame the big guy Hats off!"
Everyone glanced at Aunt Lu displeasedly.
"That is, if we plant the land and sell the profits from the land, or earn some hard money for the plantation land, the government didn't say that this is not allowed!"
"Amitabha, fortunately you are not a government official, otherwise, would the big guy still have a way out!"
"Just don't do it if you don't want to, but don't talk about it big guy."
Aunt Lu knew that Zhao Liya robbed her of her inadvertently uttered a wrong word, so she held back her breath and sneered: "I'm just worried, just remind me, don't misinterpret my meaning."
Zhao Liya smiled, and said: "The big boss wants to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes in Bajiaozhai, do you know? He promised to buy some land to grow sweet potatoes near our village. Everyone can be hired to work, and the wages are the same as those in the two villages." It’s the same, it won’t hurt us. Let’s talk about it, is this a good thing?”
Everyone was happy after hearing this, and they all said that they would definitely go to work and work hard.
Impatient and hurriedly asked Zhao Liya, when will the big boss recruit workers?
Zhao Liya smiled and said, "Isn't it that everyone will be plowing in the spring soon, and it will be almost the same when everyone finishes the work in their own fields."
Everyone said yes, "It's good, I don't delay my own work!", "That's right!", "The big boss is really kind!"
Zhao Liya said: "The big boss is not out to be kind, but to make money. Everyone work hard, we make small money, and the big boss makes big money."
"Hey! It's such a rationale." Everyone laughed.
Being able to make a small amount of money is already a rare good thing for everyone, and they are also satisfied. Big money, I really never thought about it.
They don't have this fate, and they don't dare to think about it.
When the families were busy with spring plowing, Hu Ling invited Li Zhengxiang from Zaihu Village and Bajiaozhai to accompany him, and went to the county government again to buy land.
Last year's bumper sugarcane harvest caused quite a stir in the county, and the tax that should be paid was not less than a penny.
The big boss buys land and continues to expand, which is a good thing.
With the one hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver in hand, you can buy land as you like. So I bought 5,000 mu in Zaihu Village and 5,400 mu in Bajiaozhai, for a total of 52,000 taels. Each of these two villages owns 6,000 mu of land.
Bought 1,000 acres around Yancun and spent 5,000 taels.
This time the yamen did not give any discounts, so it cost a bit more. Probably the county magistrate thought that the big boss had earned so much money growing sugar cane, so he should not waste it.
Zhao Liya has no objection.
Even after spending so much money to buy the land, she still has one hundred thousand taels left in her hand.
To reclaim all the land and expand the workshop, the cost will be around two thousand taels at most.
With so many lands, she plans to reclaim all of them this year, and plant as many sugarcane, sweet potatoes, and potatoes as possible. If there is time, she will plant soybeans, peanuts, sesame, corn, cotton, peppers and other crops in other lands. .
These are good things that can make money.
Zhao Liya was thinking in her heart, making a big profit this year, plus the share of the huanghuali wood, the 300,000 taels of pure profit should not go away, right?
She intends to ask Brother Zhou and Zhong Jing to help run the operation, first to atone for Lin Mo and a pair of younger siblings.
Brother Zhou said that Lin Mo's kung fu is much higher than what he has shown. Of course, he is not as high as him, but there is a high probability that he is better than Zhong Jing.
We have been together for so long, Zhao Liya is willing to trust Lin Mo, not to mention, to put it bluntly, Sister Shu Yan's contract of selling herself is still in her hands.
Lin Mo and his younger siblings have all redeemed their crimes. If anything happens, Lin Mo can protect them well, and no one else can do anything about it.
Brother Zhou will not stay in Lingnan for long. Zhong Jing is an official, and his family is a criminal. There are some things that he can't intervene openly. With Lin Mo, it is safer.
