Fairy Gourd Farm

Chapter 58 Lease
Of course Zhao Lei didn't know that he and Zhang Lei had become the targets of Tian Tao's revenge.After saying goodbye to the female college student, Zhao Lei hurried home.

Although the journey went smoothly, when Zhao Lei returned to Sanhe Village, the sky had already completely darkened.He ate something in a hurry, and then entered the gourd space to start practicing the three pure mind methods.

Now Zhao Lei's business is getting bigger and bigger, vegetable fields, orchards and chicken farms all use Xianlu.However, Zijin Gourd can only produce two drops of fairy dew each time. Even though Zhao Lei has been very careful about his budget, the fairy dew is often not enough.

Helpless, Zhao Lei could only use the celestial dew in his career, and he made the next best thing, trying his best to practice the Sanqing mental method in the calabash space.

As usual, Zhao Lei drank the spring water full of spiritual energy, then sat cross-legged on the Tai Chi Pisces pattern, concentrated his energy and began to practice.After a period of time, Zhao Lei had a deeper understanding of the Sanqing Xinfa, and became more proficient in practicing it.It didn't take long for him to enter the state, absorbing the spiritual energy in the gourd space to temper his body.

This practice lasted for several hours. When Zhao Lei slowly opened his eyes again, he felt refreshed and full of strength. The fatigue of today's journey has been swept away.He stood up to relax his muscles and bones, and after taking a few deep breaths, he felt extremely comfortable.

What makes Zhao Lei even more happy is that after practicing the Sanqing Xinfa recently, the dirt on his body has become less and less.This shows that the garbage in his body has been cleaned up almost, and all the garbage accumulated over the years can be cleaned out of the body, and the first layer of "body quenching" of the Sanqingxin method has been refined.

But right now Zhao Lei doesn't know the cultivation method of the second level of mind. Only after the purple gold gourd is evolved again, will the handwriting appear on the second jade tablet.This also made him secretly remind himself that he should buy more jade back, hoping to make Zijin Gourd evolve as soon as possible.

After training, Zhao Lei started to work.In order for the breeders raised in the gourd space to lay more eggs, they must be supplemented with additional nutrition.For this reason, Zhao Lei specially bought mealworms and fed a little to the breeders every day to increase nutrition.

After feeding the breeder chickens, Zhao Lei patrolled the Hulu Space as usual.Although this space is not large, only more than 100 square meters, it completely belongs to Zhao Lei, so when he patrols the calabash space, he always feels like a king patrolling his own territory.

Zhao Lei soon discovered that two more pairs of breeders had started to lay eggs.It seems that the environment in Hulu Space is indeed very good, so the breeders can quickly adapt and start laying a large number of eggs.

This discovery made Zhao Lei very satisfied, but when he came to the creek, he had an even more gratifying discovery.On a small river beach by the stream, two soft-shelled turtles are laying eggs in their nests!
In fact, these soft-shelled turtles didn't hatch for long, just over a month.But they all grew to the size of a plate, and the biggest two weighed at least four or five catties.It is indeed time for such a large turtle to lay eggs in the wild, but these turtles have only hatched for more than a month, which naturally surprised Zhao Lei.

Looking at the soft-shelled turtles laying eggs, Zhao Lei couldn't help but muttered to himself: "I didn't expect that, just messing with it casually solved the problem of soft-shelled turtles' reproduction. It seems that the next step is to build a fish pond to raise soft-shelled turtles!"

If other farmers heard Zhao Lei's words, they would definitely beat him to death.What does it mean to get it done just by doing it casually? How can this embarrass those who have worked so hard to explore the breeding technology?
But Zhao Lei has a purple gold gourd, so he can be so willful.He went to the village committee after lunch the next day, intending to discuss with the village chief, Wang Chenggang, and try to get another piece of land to build a fish pond.

Zhao Lei waited until after three o'clock in the afternoon. Wang Cheng just came back from the outside.This guy was flushed and smelled of alcohol, and he didn't know who invited him to dinner at noon, so he came to work drunk like this.

Wang Chenggang sat down heavily on his seat, hiccupped loudly and asked Zhao Lei, "Xiao Zhao, what do you need from me?"

Zhao Lei said straight to the point: "Village chief, I want to rent another piece of land from the village, can you approve it?"

As soon as he heard that Zhao Lei wanted to rent land, Wang Chenggang immediately regained his spirits, pretending to be concerned and asked, "What are you planning to use the land for?"

This matter could not be hidden from others, Zhao Lei replied honestly: "I plan to build a fish pond and raise soft-shelled turtles."

Wang Chenggang was secretly surprised by Zhao Lei's plan. He thought that this young man dropped out of university and returned home to farm.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Lei did a great job. In a short period of time, he cultivated vegetable fields, built orchards, and even set up a chicken farm.Now they are going to build fish ponds to raise soft-shelled turtles. It seems that they have a lot of spare money!

Thinking of this, a hint of greed flashed in Wang Chenggang's eyes, and he pretended to be authentic: "It is a good thing for young people to return to their hometowns to start businesses. It stands to reason that the village should strongly support it. But...there are too many people in the village right now, and many people are staring at him. What about the village committee. If I approve the land for you today, more people will ask me for land tomorrow, and the work of the village committee will be difficult!"

Although Wang Chenggang looked sincere, Zhao Lei knew that he was talking nonsense with his eyes open.Nowadays, most of the young people in the village have gone out to work, and those left behind are either old people or women and children. How can so many people want to farm?Many families rent out their land to others, and many even leave it unused, so there is no shortage of land at all.In fact, Wang Chenggang's intention in saying this was very clear, he just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to gain some benefits.

"This greedy guy is really disgusting!" Thinking of this, Zhao Lei couldn't help cursing inwardly, wishing to punch Wang Chenggang's fat face hard.

But now Zhao Lei is also under the eaves, so he had to bow his head, so he could only suppress his anger and said with a smile: "I also know that it is difficult to do in the village, so I ask the village chief for more support. As long as I can rent land, I am willing to provide the village A donation."

Both Zhao Lei and Wang Chenggang knew in their hearts that they said they were providing a donation to the village, but in fact most of it would fall into Wang Chenggang's personal pocket.

Seeing Zhao Lei being so "sensible", Wang Chenggang immediately put on a smiling face and said, "It's right to support young people's entrepreneurship. As long as the donations are in place, you can choose any unowned land in the village!"

Zhao Lei didn't hesitate, and asked Wang Chenggang directly: "I don't know how much I donate is appropriate?"

Wang Chenggang pondered for a moment, then stretched out two fingers and said to Zhao Lei: "Twenty thousand! I'll settle all your problems for you, and try to keep the annual rent as low as possible, how about it?"
