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

Chapter 18 I can’t walk anymore, carry me

The prospects seem good.

But Zhang Ruoxi still found it difficult to understand.

Sitting in the office, you can earn tens of millions every year, and it’s not the end of the story, there is still great potential for development.

But Xu Yue threw it away and returned to farming.

She planned to wait until the game company developed better, and then find a way to promote Xu Yue to the head office in one or two years.

Unfortunately, Xu Yue's sudden resignation caught her off guard.

"Be careful!"

Xu Yue reminded Zhang Ruoxi.

The mountain road is difficult to travel on, but for a kid like Xu Yue who grew up in the mountains, it is naturally not a problem.

But what about Zhang Ruoxi?
I grew up in Yanjing and have never walked on such a mountain road.

Zhang Ruoxi came from an extraordinary family and was not spoiled. She also focused on exercise. Moreover, at the age of twenty-five or twenty-six, she was at the peak of her physical strength.

The two soon arrived at Qinglongtan.

"What a nice view!"

Zhang Ruoxi couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, then took out her cell phone and started taking pictures.

What a nice view?

There is a lack of words!
At least give us some idioms like "picturesque mountains and clear waters" and "colorful mountains and rivers"!
“Take my picture!”

Zhang Ruoxi saw Xu Yue in a daze and called out to him.

Xu Yue took the phone with a smile.

Start taking pictures of Zhang Ruoxi.

Beautiful scenery and beautiful people.

Xu Yue’s photography skills are not that good, but the photos he takes are also very beautiful.

"Let's go back. It will be troublesome if it gets dark." Xu Yue said.

"it is good!"

Zhang Ruoxi nodded and had a great time this afternoon.

In the blink of an eye, it was getting dark.

time flies!

"I can't walk anymore, carry me!"

Not long after they left, Zhang Ruoxi suddenly looked at Xu Yue and said.

Her words sounded like a little girl acting coquettishly to her boyfriend.

"what?"

Xu Yue was shocked and looked back at Zhang Ruoxi. She didn't look like she was unable to walk.

"it is good!"

Xu Yue smiled and didn't refuse.

This mountain road is indeed difficult to walk on.

Coming here is uphill, going back is downhill.

Going downhill is undoubtedly more dangerous.

Carrying Zhang Ruoxi on his back and feeling her aura, he couldn't help but feel a little distracted.

Zhang Ruoxi is nearly 1.7 meters tall and not fat.

But he is not skinny, he has flesh where it should be.

The prediction is that it should be close to 100 kilograms.

For Xu Yue now, this weight is not as if it is nothing, but it really has little impact on him.

I probably wouldn't even break a sweat when I carry it back.

"Can you stop strangling me? You're squeezing me so tight I'm suffocating. If someone didn't know you, they'd think you were trying to murder me!"

Not long after they walked, Xu Yue said speechlessly.

"Oh!" Zhang Ruoxi said, "I'm sorry. It's my first time being carried on someone's back. I was a little nervous and felt like I was going to fall. This shouldn't be your first time carrying someone, right?"

"This is the first time for a beautiful girl!" Xu Yue said, "When I was in school, I played the game of back-and-forth with people a lot."

When Zhang Ruoxi heard it, she said "Oh", probably not knowing what game it was.

The games played by children in big cities are obviously different from those played by children in rural areas.

"Put me down!"

The two chatted and laughed and soon reached the back mountain, and Zhang Ruoxi was about to come down.

"We haven't arrived yet!" Xu Yue smiled and said, "Does this count as a journey of a hundred miles, halfway through?"

Despite saying so, Xu Yue still let Zhang Ruoxi go.

Even though he was a little reluctant.

"Humph!"

Zhang Ruoxi snorted coldly.

She didn't believe that Xu Yue didn't know why she came down.

It would be so embarrassing if my aunt and uncle saw it.

When they came back, Li Xiurong had already started cooking.

Xu Chengyang was sorting out his dried herbs, while Xu Jiangming had not returned yet, apparently still busy with the land lease.

Renting land is easy, but Xu Yue naturally has to go through a lot of trouble to prevent future troubles.

But he came back when it was getting dark.

"Those families didn't want to accept the money, so after much persuasion, they offered 51 acres."

After Xu Jiangming came back, he said to Xu Yue, "One month?" Zhang Ruoxi asked curiously.

"One year!" Xu Yue said.

"So cheap?" Zhang Ruoxi smiled awkwardly and said, "It's like a mountain between two different industries. I really don't understand."

"Good farmland with convenient transportation only rents for a few hundred or a thousand a year," Xu Yue said. "A lot of land in the village is abandoned, or it's free for people to cultivate. I pay rent just to save some trouble and avoid disputes later."

"Oh!"

Zhang Ruoxi responded with a confused look.

"Have you discussed the contract?" Xu Yue continued, "Let's double the price, to one hundred per mu. Sign a longer contract, and then ask the village committee to make it fair."

"Isn't it necessary?" Xu Jiangming said.

What if the price increases?

Does the other party want it?

Definitely want it!

Who would complain about having too much money?

As for why I didn’t want to accept money before, it wasn’t that I didn’t want to, but I was embarrassed.

"How many vegetables can be grown on one acre of land in a year?" Xu Yue said, "Our family doesn't need that much. Give us more and we can get rid of the gossip."

Xu Jiangming nodded and said nothing more.

If we don’t make any money, those who collect the money will feel embarrassed.

But if they make money, they might think the pay is too little.

"Once the villagers find out, they will probably want to rent land to us," said Li Xiurong.

There is a lot of land in the village, but who can cultivate it all now?

One reason is that the laborers have gone out to work, and most of the people left at home are the elderly.

There is another important reason, which is that you work hard all year round but still earn very little money.

Just like an acre of paddy field, if you plant rice and sell millet, how much can you get?
Two thousand is not bad!

Due to inconvenient transportation, merchants may not come to collect the goods, so you still have to transport them out.

Putting aside the costs of seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, etc., there is not much left even without labor.

As for growing vegetables?

The villagers grow vegetables basically just to satisfy their own consumption.

The only crops grown in the soil and sold are probably corn, beans and a few other things.

No one in their village grows vegetables to sell.

One hundred and one acres, and it's not even a paddy field. Collecting rent is better than working hard by myself.

Don’t worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality!

Who is not in the village?

Some people are kind and generous, while others are willing to exploit people and take advantage of them.

If you rent one hundred and one acres of land from someone else, naturally, the other person will want you to rent their abandoned land as well.

"If we don't rent, can they still force us?" Xu Yue said, "But let's wait and see. It's not impossible to rent out the entire village's land in the future."

Rent out all the land in the village?

How much land is there in the village?

Xu Yue really didn't know this.

I guess even the people in the village committee may not be aware of this.

"Xiao Yue!"

Li Xiurong found a moment of leisure and lowered her head to ask Xu Yue, "Does Ruoxi sleep in your room tonight, or..."

"Oh!"

Xu Yue was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw Zhang Ruoxi turning away with a red face.

She accidentally heard it.

Luckily my mom didn’t see it, but it was pretty embarrassing.

"I'll ask her whether she should stay in a hotel in the city or clean up a room for her." Xu Yue smiled and left.

Unfortunately, they were interested in each other, but they didn't break the last layer of window paper and didn't confirm the relationship.

After dinner, Li Xiurong was busy cleaning Zhang Ruoxi's room.

However, Zhang Ruoxi was looking around Xu Yue's room.

"Your house is quite big." Zhang Ruoxi said.

It’s really big.

It is impossible for an average rural house to have so many rooms.

Xu Yue's family has two rooms in their house, one for his grandfather, one for his parents, and one for him.

This does not include the main room, kitchen, etc.

"Just make do with it for now. This is how it is in the countryside." Xu Yue said, "When I get rich one day, I'll build a big villa."

"Building a big villa in the village shouldn't cost much, right?" Zhang Ruoxi said, "You should have the money to build it now, right?"

"I don't have much money." Xu Yue shook his head and said, "I almost spent all my money when I bought the house, and I didn't sell it when I left. Now there's only about a million in the card. I just came back, and I have a lot of expenses."

If he hadn't spent a lot of money on that car, he probably wouldn't be able to come up with even a million.

"If you don't have money, I can lend you some!" Zhang Ruoxi said.

"Forget it!" Xu Yue said, "What if I can't pay it back and you ask me to pay it with my body?"

"roll!"

Zhang Ruoxi immediately said in a bad mood.
