Old Yang went down the mountain.
Fang Qiu and others followed him.
Back in the village, old Yang excitedly gathered all the people in the village and told them that Fang Qiu was going to build a cultivation base here.
Without needing old Yang to tell them about the benefits it would bring, everyone immediately cheered and became excited.
Hearing everyone's cheers, Fang Qiu couldn't help laughing.
He knew.
The reason why the villagers were so excited and cheered so wildly was that the construction of a cultivation base meant that people were coming.
They had been isolated here for a long time and almost didn't dare to go out. Occasionally, someone went out and was stared at by others, so they could only shut themselves up.
But now, someone was going to build a cultivation base here. Since these people were willing to build a cultivation base here, they certainly wouldn't look down on them.
Most importantly, once this cultivation base was built, there would definitely be more people coming and going. At that time, with the completion of this cultivation base, their town would gradually change from a leprosy village to a normal village!
So, they were excited and cheered.
And Fang Qiu's purpose was to let these people in the village live with dignity, even let them live with pride, because they had precious medicinal materials here!
Soon.
In the cheers of everyone, old Yang came over with a middle-aged man.
"This is the village chief of our village, Zhang Shugen."
Old Yang introduced.
"Hello, village chief."
Fang Qiu took the initiative to shake hands with the village chief.
The village chief's hands were shaking.
This was the first time he shook hands with an outsider. This was the first time he met someone who was not afraid of him, did not despise him, and took the initiative to shake hands with him.
Not only the village chief, but also old Yang next to him and the surrounding villagers saw Fang Qiu take the initiative to reach out to the village chief. Everyone was excited!
"This, I agree! I agree! "
When Zhang Shugen shook hands with Fang Qiu, he was so excited that he said incoherently.
"Village chief, we don't have to be so anxious."
Fang Qiu smiled and said, "We still have to understand some important matters. After confirming the ownership of this mountain, we have to talk about the specific details of the contract and so on. Then we can start the construction. These are all necessary steps. We can't be careless and can't be omitted."
Hearing that.
The village chief was stunned at first, then thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to my house. Let's talk in my house."
After that.
Together with Old Yang, he took Fang Qiu and others to a spacious bungalow that was a little dilapidated.
Everyone sat down.
"Chief, I would like to know the ownership of this mountain first. This old man said that this mountain belongs to your village. Do you have any documents to prove it?"
Fang Qiu asked.
"Yes."
Zhang Shugen immediately nodded and said, "Ever since I was born, no one has ever come to the mountains near this village. It's been decades now. Except for some people who come from afar and are not familiar with our village, no one else dares to come close or go up the mountain."
"Later, after the previous one passed away, he gave me a certificate, saying that it was from his country."
Speaking of this, Zhang Shugen immediately rummaged for it. Soon, he found the yellowing certificate protected by a leather case and handed it to Fang Qiu.
Fang Qiu took it and had a look.
"Certificate."
"Due to the establishment of Leprosy Village, to provide enough places for people's daily activities, an area of ten kilometers around Leprosy Village has been specially approved as Leprosy Village's territory. Other cities, counties, and towns have no right to interfere with its jurisdiction. Everything under Leprosy Village's jurisdiction can be cultivated, rented, excavated, planted, and built … The time limit is until the day the country recalls it."
Seeing this certificate, Fang Qiu was shocked.
"What the f * ck, there's such a certificate?"
Zhou Xiaotian and Sun Hao came over. With just one glance, they were both stunned.
This was practically giving them land.
And all the roads on this land had been opened.
In other words, they could do whatever they wanted with this land, and no one could interfere. The money they earned from this land and everything they planted belonged to Leprosy Village. They didn't even have to pay taxes.
If they were to use modern terms, Leprosy Village was basically a special administrative region!
However.
After thinking about it carefully, Fang Qiu was not so shocked.
After all, this was Leprosy Village.
This was the only thing the country could help them with. The country could not force others to socialize with them.
"Village Chief, please keep it."
After reading it, Fang Qiu returned the certificate to the village chief, then said with a smile, "Next, we can talk about the details of the contract."
"There's no need to talk. We agree to all your requests!"
Zhang Shugen immediately said.
"That won't do."
Fang Qiu immediately shook his head and said, "This concerns the integrity of the enterprise. Our company is a company for the people. I represent the company to thank you for your trust in our company, but the procedures must be complete. Most importantly, we won't take a single cent from the people. The land here is directly under your jurisdiction. Even if you don't see the value of this land, I still need to tell you the value of this land clearly."
"We need to rent this entire mountain. Perhaps in the future, we will need land with the mountain as the center and expand in all directions. I hope that the lease period is indefinite. Of course, after the country accepts the land under your jurisdiction, we will renegotiate the contract with the country. For now, for our needs, how much do you think the annual lease fee is suitable?"
As soon as he said this.
Zhao Shanlin and his three roommates all nodded in agreement.
Building a cultivation base was not a trivial matter. It concerned the interests of many people. Every point must be explained clearly and written in the contract.
"Fees?"
Zhang Shugen was surprised. He immediately shook his head and waved his hand, saying, "No, no, we don't need any fees. You have already helped us a lot by building here. How dare we ask for any fees!"
"We still have to charge you. After all, we have occupied your mountain. Although you don't have to go up the mountain to collect herbs in the future, there are many things on the mountain that you can't pick, such as wild fruits, wild steamed foods on the mountain, sweet potatoes, and so on."
Speaking of this, Fang Qiu smiled again and continued to add, "The purpose of building a cultivation base here, in addition to planting dendrobium, is to help your village develop. Only by charging us for leasing the land can your village develop better, right?"
The village chief heard this.
It seemed to be true.
"The construction of your village also needs a lot of money. You can't always do this, can you?"
Fang Qiu said.
"But, but I don't know how much this fee should be."
Zhang Shugen raised his eyebrows.
"Okay."
Fang Qiu thought for a moment, took out his mobile phone, searched on the Internet, and said, "At present, the national mountain rental price is about 20 yuan per mu, and one mu of land is 666 square meters. In addition, Yunnan has not been developed yet, so the price will be relatively low. But since I came here with sincerity, it doesn't matter."
"I estimate the land area of the whole mountain is about 100,000 mu. Let's not be so detailed, so we might as well rent the mountain directly."
"I just calculated that there are a total of 50 families in your village with a total of more than 100 people, right?"
Fang Qiu asked.
"Yes, 51 families with a total of 103 people."
Zhang Shugen said.
"How about this?"
Fang Qiu thought for a moment and said, "I'll give you 3 million yuan per year for the rental price of this mountain. You can use the money for the overall construction of the village, or you can distribute it equally to each family. If I expand the area in the future, I'll increase the corresponding rental price at the market price. Is that okay?"
This price was actually higher than the national average price.
He could actually give more because the profit of dendrobium would be very large.
But he was worried that giving too much money would directly affect the whole village.
Each family would give them about 50,000 yuan per year, which was neither too much nor too little. When they adapted to their new rich life, they could slowly increase it.
"So much?"
Zhang Shugen was shocked.
He didn't expect that Fang Qiu would offer a high price of 3 million yuan as soon as he opened his mouth!
My God!
How much money was that!
It should be known that each of them only earned two or three thousand yuan a year before!
"Not much."
Fang Qiu smiled and said, "In the future, we will gradually adjust some benefits, such as helping to build schools, hospitals, supermarkets, and helping to train the villagers as employees and so on."
As soon as he said that.
The village chief and old man Yang were even more happy. There was no reason for them to refuse, so they immediately agreed.
Everything was settled.
Fang Qiu directly called He Xue.
"Hello?"
The phone was connected.
"I rented a mountain. The contract has been negotiated. I have asked Zhu Benzheng to send the details of the contract to you. Take a look at the contract and prepare to allocate the money and send someone over."
Fang Qiu said.
"Why do you rent a mountain?"
He Xue said with confusion and depression, "You have something to do as soon as you go out. I'm very curious. Why do you have so many things to do?"
"Because I found a medicine on this mountain that is as effective as snow lotus."
Fang Qiu said, "If we take over this mountain, our company will be able to develop more drugs."
"Really?"
When He Xue heard this, she immediately became excited and said, "I'll arrange it right away. I'll definitely get it done as soon as possible! Hurry up and rent it! "
After that, she hung up the phone.
Fang Qiu was speechless.
Sure enough, only money could stimulate her.
He Xue had already begun to allocate money to send people over. The village chief had also specially cleaned up a room for Fang Qiu and the others to rest.
Zhao Shanlin took Zhu Benzheng and the other two to stay on the mountain all day, busy studying how to plant.
Fang Qiu also went up the mountain to investigate the whole mountain and the surrounding terrain. He found that with this mountain as the center, the area within five kilometers around it was very strange. As long as he made a slight change, he could directly make a good terrain.
And in Leprosy Village.
Old Man Yang also officially began to teach the children in the village.
The village, which had been lifeless a few days ago, finally recovered a lot of vitality with the arrival of Fang Qiu and the others. Even the people in the nearby villages often came here.
One day later.
The investigation team sent by He Xue officially entered the mountain to carry out the inspection and preparation work before the construction.
In the past few days.
Fang Qiu went to the surrounding villages and traveled for a few days.
Every time he went to a mountain village, he could clearly see the barrenness of the place.
He saw that the houses were all broken brick houses, and even particularly dilapidated mud houses. He saw that many families had large rooms, but there was nothing in the room except a window and a bonfire.
He saw the children here. They were all wearing tattered clothes and pants that were patched up. These clothes were also unreasonably large.
He saw that in the small clinic in the village, there were only one or two medicines for colds and fever, and there were no other medicines.
He saw that these villages were actually not idyllic, without poetry and distance.
Because that was the life of the rich.
