Chapter 1992 Tremble Gold Finger (7)
There is news again in Sanjiao-
"Hey, have you heard that, the little girl in An's family is like a mountain to the south."
"Does she want to learn from Yaoyao and plant fruit trees?"
"Oh, this An family's Xiaoni is just a worry-free person. She has been inconsistent with Yaoyao since she was a child. I heard that she was just chased by Yaoyao's dog two days ago and kowtowed her head."
"No, oh, a big bag hit on your forehead. It looks very pitiful."
"You are still pitiful to me? No matter how miserable she is, she did it herself. She is a good girl, and after all, she went to college. Why are she still going to the orchard like those little gangsters?" She deserves to be chased by a dog!
"That's it! Besides, the other person is not a little cabbage that no one cares about. Her parents love her. So, the girl was clamoring to contract the mountain and build an orchard. The An family members tried to persuade her several times but failed to persuade her, so they really found a way to raise money!"
"Ah? Really, this family really doesn't know what to say. Tell me, the children are ignorant, why do adults also make trouble?"
Everyone was talking about it. No matter what they said, they had a consensus, that is, they were not optimistic about An Jia's orchard.
Yes, Zhou Yao’s orchard is very profitable, and the scene of people in the city running wildly to rush to buy it has made countless villagers even more excited.
But everyone knows better that the Zhou family’s orchard is different.
Because it’s not that no one wants to follow the trend, of course, the villagers have peasant-like shrewdness.
Planting fruit trees is different from planting. You can see the harvest in just one year.
As for planting fruit trees, it will take at least three to five years to bear fruit.
If you lose for several years, you can't get enough.
Therefore, when everyone saw that Zhou's orchard made money, they did not rush to follow the example. Instead, they secretly pulled the fruits from the orchards in nearby villages and sold them to Sanjiao.
They thought it simple. They were all fruit trees planted in the mountains, with similar natural environments. Moreover, Zhou Yao was not a rare variety, they were all fruits of large street goods. They looked similar to ordinary fruits.
The villagers don’t believe in high-tech or new varieties at all.
They almost took the fruits from Zhou Yao's orchard as samples and went around to buy some fruits that looked exactly the same.
At first, they really fooled a few tourists.
But when those people cut the fruit and ate it into their mouths, they all spit it out.
"A lie! This is not the fruit of Zhou's orchard at all!"
"Yes, other people's apples smell full of fruity fragrance and are crispy and sweet and refreshing to eat, but you are the most common apples on the market."
The villagers were all stunned. Judging from their appearance, they really couldn't see the difference.
To endure the pain, some villagers finally took a bite of the fruit they bought from the Zhou family at a high price, but found-
Very nice, it's really delicious.
And I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but after eating an apple, I feel much better.
I couldn't help but mutter: No wonder everyone says that the fruits of the Zhou family are ginseng fruits. After eating them, I realized that, hey, the fruits of others are not ordinary.
The villagers were even more aware that even in the same environment, it was difficult to grow the same fruit as the Zhou family.
There is another more important reason. Sanjiakou is surrounded by mountains on three sides. The mountain on the east side was contracted by Zhou Yao, and Zhou Yao made a big profit from the orchard, so that the cost of contracting the mountain has increased.
Just now, the village committee’s asking price on the hillside adjacent to Zhoujia Orchard is more than doubled when Zhou Yao contracted it back then.
This is because the villagers are more "rational" and there is no competition, otherwise the contract fee will be higher.
Because there have been rumors that several big bosses in the city also took a fancy to Sanjiaao's "Feng Shui" and wanted to build an orchard here.
Those people are truly rich people, and the contract fee of millions is really nothing to them.
However, the village committee stated that those hills were collectively owned by Sanjiao, and even if they had to contract them out, they wanted to take care of the villagers in the village.
Of course, this is just a statement from the village committee to the outside world. Those well-informed aunts and ladies have more reliable speculations—
"I heard that the villagers' committee are careless. The big boss in the city is rich, but he is not a big shot. I heard that they have many conditions to contract the mountain!"
"Yes, they are even more reluctant to sign an agreement with the village committee to ensure that the contracted hilltops are only used for planting. If they lose money by planting fruit trees, they may change it to other commercial uses."
"That's right, just like Fangjia Village next door, a big boss contracted the mountain to develop a weekend farm. But later the project was no longer profitable, so he simply changed the farm to an amusement park. Oh, the good forest was ruined and it was not decent. The village chief of Fangjia Village was criticized by the county and was finally dismissed from his official position!"
"So, the big bosses in the city are all obtained by the village committee to increase the contract fee. If you believe them, you are a fool!"
The three aunts and six aunts, the fourth uncle and five uncle gathered under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, and they were all guiding the country like Zhuge Liang.
But the three of An's family really walked into the village committee like a fool they said, and took out a lot of money to contract the hill to the south of An's family.
When he paid for it, An's father's hands were trembling.
He felt distressed and scared. This was the hard-earned money he had worked outside for more than ten years and almost earned his life.
Originally, he kept the money for his daughter to ask for a son-in-law. He bought a house and a car in the county town. His father had already found out that his 500,000 yuan was just enough.
As a result, my daughter had to contract the orchard even though she wanted to die.
Father An didn't believe that his spoiled silly daughter could do business.
To contract an orchard, it means to sprinkle the money directly into the water.
But he really couldn't resist it.
My wife, who should have been on the same front as him, also advised him: "These money was saved for Xiao Ni, but now she is just used in advance. She is not using it for nonsense, but doing serious things, so give it to her."
An’s father couldn’t help but mutter: “What if she loses all the money?”
At that time, what will he use to recruit his son-in-law?
How can their old An family pass on their family line?
Zhou Meijuan thought it through, "Then you won't recruit a son-in-law! Marry Xiaoni normally."
An’s father was anxious: “Then our An family—” will be broken?
Zhou Meijuan rolled her eyes in her heart. Her husband was not the only one. She had several nephews with her own relatives, and the old An family could not be broken!
Besides, can you pass on the family line by recruiting a son-in-law?
What a joke, let alone those who have been willing to be son-in-law since ancient times are all impolite cowards. Even if they really find a capable son-in-law, if they are capable in the future, the first thing they have to do is to get rid of their status as son-in-law.
Changing the surname of a child is a trivial matter. If you don’t do it well, you will even abandon the yellow-faced woman at home.
Zhou Meijuan doesn't want to spend money to raise a ungrateful wolf.
Therefore, from beginning to end, Zhou Meijuan didn't plan to recruit any son-in-law.
In addition, she was also guarding against the nephews of the An family.
Although Sanjiaao does not have the stupidity of favoring boys over girls who would rather ask for nephews than having daughters, it is not without examples of nephews inheriting the property of old and vulnerable families.
