Chapter 69: The Man Who Forgot His Ancestors
Among the three farms in the village, the largest one covers an area of ​​100 acres, and the smallest one is nearly 30 acres.

The rule in the village is to put it up for bidding every five years, and the highest bidder wins.

In order to prevent malicious price increases from being out of the market, the bidding adopted a relatively fair hidden dart model.

That is, everyone can write down their own psychological price and put it in a black box. There is only one chance.

In addition to paying five years' rent in one lump sum, there is another daunting amount of money, which is the deposit.

The deposit is 10,000 yuan per acre, which will be refunded after five years.

The deposit serves as the village’s fund reserve, and is mainly invested to earn interest and used as bonuses to give young people in the village who are admitted to university.

Two thousand for undergraduate and one thousand for junior college.

Every year, the village has to pay out hundreds of thousands of yuan in bonuses, which is also a huge expense. So based on the annual rent of the three plots of land, and later on the income from the deposit, it can barely make ends meet.

"If you have money, would you be willing to contract one?" Lu Feng asked seriously.

"Isn't this nonsense? Who wouldn't want to do it if they have money? Even if you don't do it yourself, you can still make some money by finding someone to raise the shrimps. In recent years, the larger the scale, the more money they make. Small shrimp ponds have become difficult to survive." Lu Xiangnan said directly.

It can be said that the villagers are jealous of these three farms.

Unfortunately, only a handful of people are able to afford the lease, especially the largest piece, which almost failed to be sold last time.

It's not that they don't want to make money, but the deposit of 10,000 yuan per mu is really too much. The few households in the village who can afford it, who doesn't have other industries?

As for ordinary breeders, who can come up with millions of dollars in liquid funds to support someone for five years?

Lu Feng did not discuss this matter any further because he knew that the more people knew about it, the higher the possibility of accidents.

He has his own judgment on these.

"When is the next bidding?" Lu Feng asked.

"Normally it's the eighth day of the first lunar month! After welcoming the master, we will bid directly at the Mazu Temple." Lu Xiangnan said.

Welcoming the master is the village’s top priority every year. It is a great opportunity for wealthy people to show up.

It seems that there is a lot to do in the remaining ten days.

No wonder people say that rich people also have rich people’s worries!
At this time, in a three-story building just a few hundred meters away.

Sitting on the long sofa, Lu Hui described in an exaggerated way what happened in the gold shop in the county town tonight.

"After what he did, Xiaochun can't save face even if she wants to give less." Lu Hui naturally knew that Li Xiaochun was very stubborn about this matter and it really had nothing to do with Lu Feng, but by saying this, he could maintain his girlfriend's image in front of his parents.

Li Xiaochun's unreasonable behavior now had a direct reason.

"Lu Feng actually has more than 20,000 yuan to buy a gift for his mother! Isn't it said that he earns less than 2,000 yuan a month from Boss Lu? He has only been there for less than half a year." Lu Xiangdong was full of doubts.

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it. Dad, now is not the time to think about this. Xiaochun hasn't replied to my messages since he went back. Please think of a solution for your son." Lu Hui said anxiously.

Lu Xiangdong sighed helplessly: "What can I do? I told you not to buy a car before, but you insisted on buying one. Now your betrothal gift is still not settled, and the hardware is so expensive all of a sudden. There are still many things to consider later. Where can I find so much money for you all at once?"

"Then you can go find Zhou Laosi, maybe he can provide some support." Lu Hui suggested.

"And here's Zhou Laosi! It's good enough that he doesn't cause me trouble now. He was beaten up by your second uncle for no reason because of that kid Lu Feng, and he's very angry now. It's good enough that he doesn't ask us for this year's feed money when he goes there." Lu Xiangdong said angrily.

He himself did not expect that Lu Xiangnan would actually take action directly.

This immediately cut off the possibility of marriage.

He knew his brother was a bit slow-witted, but he never thought it would be this bad! He had originally planned to save a few thousand yuan, but now he didn't even dare to go get the feed.

"Dad, what should I do? You can't ask me to sell the car. I've only been driving it for less than two months. If I sell it, won't the villagers laugh at me?"

As soon as Lu Hui started to act like a spoiled child, Huang Ling, who was standing next to him, couldn't sit still anymore. She shouted, "It's all your brother's fault. They don't care about family affection at all. If they can do it on the first day of the month, we can do it on the fifteenth. Tomorrow, we'll send in a crane to tear down the old house and sell our half directly. Let's see what he can do."

"It's obvious that their family is jealous of us Lu Hui and are secretly trying to trip us up. I'm going to make trouble for them tomorrow and make this New Year difficult for them." Lu Xiangdong said in a deep voice.

February 2th, the 14th day of the lunar calendar.

The issue of the ancestral home soon broke out.

Outside the ancestral house, two excavators were working on the left and right, and the loud noises made everyone worried. The news had already spread, and many people who were interested had already surrounded the place.

The two families were not on good terms, and this was already known to everyone in the village. But when things got to this point, it was beyond everyone's expectations.

Even some of the older generation of clan members couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to try to calm the farce.

"Xiangdong, move the excavator away. Don't let the villagers laugh at our Lu family." The patriarch, who had lost all his hair, and a long-bearded old man whom Lu Feng had to call "old uncle", was leaning on a cane and constantly persuading the two brothers who were in a stalemate.

Lu Xiangnan just sat under the front door, facing the rumbling excavator, smoking without saying a word.

Lu Xiangdong was so angry at his appearance that he jumped up and down, but there was nothing he could do.

The two excavators were hired from outside, and the people from this village didn't dare to take the job at all. And how could the two people from other villages dare to move when they saw this situation?

The scene suddenly froze.

On one side, Lu Xiangdong's family kept cursing, while on the other side, Lu Feng's family was calm and silent, and there were hundreds of onlookers pointing and talking.

The situation remained deadlocked for an hour. Seeing more and more people gathered around, Lu Xiangdong gritted his teeth and walked to the gate of the old house.

"Today, I, Lu Xiangdong, am making this clear. If this matter is not resolved, I will write the character Lu upside down."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Isn't it still the same character if you write the character 吕 upside down?"

“Illiteracy is terrible.”

"This family is too shameless."

All around, laughter surged like a tide.

Lu Xiangdong couldn't bear it any longer, so he rushed to the excavator, pulled the operator down, and climbed on himself.

"Kaka..."

The sound of the excavator starting up startled everyone.

Seeing this, Lv Feng rushed forward, pointed at Lv Xiangdong, and shouted: "If you dare to touch the house today, I will tear it down tomorrow."

"Get out of my way, you little bastard." Lu Xiangdong cursed angrily.

Lv Feng was not afraid at all, and stood in front of the excavator: "Everyone, please judge for yourself. For a little money, he even gave up his ancestors. Can such a person still be considered a human being?"

Lu Xiangdong's family had long been notorious in the village, and at this time, the insults had already been heard one after another.

"Don't tell me about ancestors. If my father really recognized me as his son, he should have transferred this house to me, and there wouldn't be all this trouble today." Lu Xiangdong waved his arms on the excavator and shouted, "I still say the same thing. Either you agree to pay 100,000 yuan to buy out my half, or I will tear it down myself today. This is a matter between the two brothers. It has nothing to do with you. Get out of here."
