Three points are destined, seven points depend on face

Chapter 162 The right time, right place and right people

Some of the people in Gejiazhuang are related by marriage to the villagers in Xia Chuntao Village, so from Xia Chuntao's purchase of the village, they give new year's gifts to the villagers, monthly payments to the workers, and even the Dragon Boat Festival dinner just a few days ago. , nothing unclear.

At that time, everyone in Gejiazhuang was extremely envious. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the owner of Xia Village bought their village. How could this make them unhappy?

Lao Fang took the lead and said, "Master, if you have any orders, just tell us and we will take care of them."

Everyone agreed.

"Although this is my first time meeting you all, here..." Xia Chuntao looked around, "I am no stranger to this place. From now on, outside, there will be a village on both sides of us."

"Everyone may know that I want to build a restaurant on the mountain. This time I come here to recruit more people to work in the mountain. They will pay ten cents a day and take care of two meals. Folks who are in good health can live until old age. Liu, please register here."

The men in the village were so happy that they could work right outside their homes, and the wages were not low, and two meals were included. Where could they find such a good job? Men swarmed around Lao Liu and rushed to sign up.

"In addition, because I just took over our village, when this crop of grain comes down, I will take 20%. You will pay the grain tax yourself, and everyone will handle the rest by yourself. From next year, I will pay the normal 64%. I am six and you are four, so I will bear the food tax."

Xia Chuntao originally didn't plan to ask for this year's land rent. After all, she only got the farm when the crops were about to mature, so she always felt like she was freeloading. But when I thought about it, since Lao Liu's village was growing beans, the food would have to be bought from outside. It would be better to take 20% from Gejiazhuang, which would be enough for the farmers on Lao Liu's side.

The land rent is divided according to June 4th, which is the way most landlords share it. Xia Chuntao feels that it is similar. After all, he still has to bear the grain tax. Excluding grain taxes, the benefits to both parties are basically equal.

Everyone heard that the village owner only received 20% of this year's income. Even if he paid the grain tax, he would still have at least 60% left in his hands. This is simply a good thing that has never happened before!

Even if the tax rate is 46% next year and the village owner still bears the grain tax, the common people will actually get 40% of it. This is an extremely generous income no matter which landowner it belongs to!

You know, when Zeng Rui was the boss, although they didn't need to pay grain tax, they didn't even get 20% of it. Last year, we even asked them to hand over all their grain, and then returned a batch of old grain and moldy grain to them.

This person can't help but compare. There is an extremely bad former boss Zeng Rui, which makes the current boss Xia Chuntao extremely kind.

The common people were moved beyond words and knelt down to kowtow to Xia Chuntao.

Xia Chuntao looked at the dark head and felt dizzy for a while.

"Everyone, get up. You are all kneeling, how can we chat? How about I kneel down and continue talking?"

The dealers were amused by Xia Chuntao and stood up one after another.

"Tell me about the plan for the second half of the year. We can plant field beans after harvesting the crops here. All the field beans will be sold to my workshop, and we will still get 64% of the profit."

Huh? Calculating this way, this year there will be sufficient food and profits from ground beans. This is really a good day that has not been seen in many years!

In addition, most families can provide one or two strong laborers to work on projects, and each person can earn ten cents a day. If he can work for three to three months, each person can add one or two cents to the family.

"If possible, you can raise more pigs, because my workshop needs a lot of pork. It is of course the best to collect it in our village. The price will not deduct everyone. What is the price for your takeout? I’ll pay whatever the price is.”

The farmer's faces were full of joy and they were full of energy. They couldn't wait to start penning the pig pen and catching the piglets now.

"But one thing is that you absolutely don't want sick pigs. If you find someone using sick pigs to make up for your mistakes, don't stay with me, Zhuangzi." Xia Chuntao looked at Lao Fang aside, "Old Fang, you must be strict with me on this point. Take control. We are in the business of eating, and if the food is not clean, it will damage our reputation at a small scale, and it may be confiscated by Zhuangzi at a big scale."

Lao Fang nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, owner, I will take care of this matter."

The villagers around him saw that the owner had a gentle temper, and some of them dared to speak.

"Master, don't worry, we will work hard and never sell sick pigs to the workshop."

"Yes, owner of the village, if we do this, we will be ungrateful. What is the difference between us and animals?"

"Master, don't worry!"

……

"When our restaurant is built in the future, any fresh ingredients and dry goods you have can be sold to our restaurant. The restaurant will collect these items for a long time, and the price is absolutely fair, so everyone can rest assured."

The bankers laughed, and one banker shouted: "As long as the bank owner is here, we can rest assured!"

All the dealers agreed.

After everyone had dispersed, Lao Fang, the head of the village, took Xia Chuntao and his party around the entire Gejiazhuang. Gejiazhuang is about twice the size of Lao Liu's village, with a larger population and more fertile land. Even though they were being exploited so harshly, the farmers still farmed the fields conscientiously, and the crops were growing well.

Xia Chuntao pointed to a place, "No one planted it here?"

Lao Fang looked at the land and said, "It did exist before, but this place is relatively remote, the soil is dry, and it is far away from the water source. Later, no one wanted to be in this kind of land."

"I don't want to farm here, I want to build a workshop."

Old Liu asked: "Master, don't we already have workshops there?"

Xia Chuntao explained, "Other food will be produced in the future, but we can't put it there."

Old Fang is very happy. If a workshop is built in Gejiazhuang, will his farmers be able to work in the workshop? I heard from Old Liu that the wages paid by the workshop are high and the benefits are good.

Lao Fang's little eyes narrowed with joy, "The owner of the village is right, this is the most suitable place to build a workshop. Look, how big this place is!"

Lao Liu looked at Lao Fang's success and was very disdainful. What's so great about it is that no one is the same!

Xia Chuntao's visit to Gejiazhuang seemed to have given the people of Gejiazhuang a shot of stimulant. Everyone immediately took action, those who worked on projects, those who farmed, those who raised pigs...

Everyone changed from their previous decadence and became full of energy.

No matter what era, ordinary people are the easiest to be satisfied. As long as they are fed, clothed and allowed to live a life without worrying about food and clothing, they will always be the most energetic group of people.

The construction of the restaurant has begun, and everyone is busy in an orderly manner.

Xia Chuntao is mainly responsible for the daily expenditure of money. I have already done this when I was building the school, and I am quite familiar with it. There happened to be three literate girls among the abducted girls. They originally planned to return to Daxi Village and teach again. What a great teaching opportunity now.
