Chapter 51: The Disgusted Infertile Village Girl (11)
"You want to rent my mountain? What are you doing?" An Nan asked knowingly.
"I want to rent some vegetables and fruits," Tang Xiaoliu answered honestly.
"There are so many mountains around our village, wouldn't it be better if you go and buy another one?" An Nan continued to ask.
"Only you are the most suitable for this. Other mountains are either too many stones or too steep. It is too troublesome to open up land, it takes time and labor, and it is not worth the effort. It is too steep. It is dangerous. You have to take care of fruits and vegetables often. If something happens, it will be bad..." Tang Xiaoliu has long visited the surrounding mountains. Tangjia Village is indeed the only one in An Nan's hand. Of course, other villages have suitable mountains, but it is too far away and difficult to manage. Moreover, growing fruits and vegetables, which can be exchanged for money, is easy to attract jealousy, and it is easy to suffer losses if you are not in your own village.
Therefore, based on multiple considerations, Tang Xiaoliu had only one choice, that is, the mountain where An Nan took the lead.
An Nan was secretly happy. She naturally knew that Tang Xiaoliu had to build a plantation in her mountain, otherwise she would not have bought it in advance. She was waiting for Tang Xiaoliu to come to beg her.
"But rent it to you, then this mountain is not used by my family. What if the luck of the descendants is not suitable for me?" An Nan hesitated.
"No, no, this mountain belongs to you, and only your family lives on the hillside, so why shouldn't it be on you? Besides, I plant more fruit trees on this mountain, and the grass and trees are lush. Isn't the fortune of this mountain more prosperous? The best of both worlds is the best..." Tang Xiaoliu hurriedly coaxed and persuaded her, for fear that An Nan would be too stubborn and would not rent the mountain to her, and even her own unshamed fortune would be irrelevant.
"Well, what you said makes sense..." An Nan touched his smooth chin, pretended to think for a while, and nodded.
Tang Xiaoliu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
The two finally discussed various conditions for renting the mountain, wrote a basic contract version, and planned to talk to their families and find time to testify with the village chief.
An Nan happily patted the deed paper on the table, and said to Lu Qianshan, who was virtuously bringing out breakfast, said: "Look! Our mountain is going to be rented out. From now on, we will sit at home and do nothing, and we will collect money every year..."
An Nan raised her chin and said proudly. When Lu Qianshan saw her cute little appearance, he couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her eyes that were smiling and narrowed, and praised with a low smile: "It's all my credit, and I'm the most foresighted."
"Of course!" An Nan became even more proud, her tail was about to rise up. She was not only happy because of the rent, but also gloating because she saw the heroine's ugly face as if she had shit. She was not a good person.
A few days later, the two families finally agreed to the content of the lease contract, so they went to the village chief's house to invite the village chief and several authoritative elders in the village to testify. After all, the annual rent of a mountain is not a small amount, and the lease period is as long as twenty years.
Once the contract between these two families was signed, the whole village knew that Lu Qianshan and An Nan actually bought a mountain, and they could still rely on this mountain to collect rent every year. Suddenly, the quiet village seemed to pour a pot of boiling water into it. The villagers guessed whether Lu Qianshan and his wife had made a fortune and were so rich that they could buy a mountain. Then they envied their family for collecting rent without doing anything every year. They were really smarter than the An Ruilin family who rented the mountain to grow fruits and vegetables!
At least the An Ruilin family has to work hard to open up land and farm to make money, but they don’t have to do anything on Lu Qianshan. They can get money by lying comfortably at home. Can it not be enviable? Why didn’t they buy that mountain first?
Of course, they would not think about whether their family had enough money to buy mountains, and they were not An Nan who knew the development of things. Even if they had enough money, they would only buy fields instead of an idle mountain.
An Nan's mother's family also began to move.
"Mom, they said Lu Qianshan bought this back mountain and rented it to An Ruilin's house. Is this true?" Wang asked An's mother in wonder.
"Of course it's true. Many people in the village saw them going to the village chief's house to sign a contract." An's mother said with complicated eyes. Unfortunately, it was not a mountain she bought.
"How much does it cost to afford a mountain?" Wang asked in surprise. Now a good acre of paddy fields costs nearly ten taels of silver. Although a mountain is deserted and has not been opened, it is so big that it can cost hundreds of taels of silver, right? Hundred taels of silver! If he had hundreds of taels of silver, he would not be able to buy a lot of good fields! Wang was envious and jealous.
"Why does Lu Qianshan have so much money?" Wang couldn't figure it out, "Isn't he a hunter who doesn't even have a piece of land and can only survive by hunting?"
"Who knows? But if he can buy a mountain, he must have a lot of money, but when he first married An Nan, he was only willing to pay ten taels of silver, which was too little!" An Dalang said with an ugly face. At this moment, he forgot how ecstatic he was when he was able to get the 10 taels of silver bride. Now that he heard that there was a mountain on Lu Qianshan, he began to be greedy.
"That's it! Mom, we can't suffer any loss. An Nan was a yellow girl when she married him. Although she couldn't give birth, she looked good. How could the little bit of betrothal gift he gave?" Wang was immediately angry and began to instigate An's mother to find ways to get some money from Lu Qianshan.
"Mom, our family is short of money now. Dalang has to buy paper and pen to pay for the slaughter when he is studying. Dabao has to make a few clothes when he grows taller... Since Lu Qianshan can afford a mountain, it's nothing to make up for more bride money, right? If he refuses to give it to him, then ask An Nan for it!"
As soon as An Nan mentioned, An's mother suddenly had the courage: "You are right! That dear girl, I am her mother. How dare she not listen to me? I am Lu Qianshan's mother-in-law, and it is natural to ask for some money from her son-in-law!"
At this time, the whole family forgot what Lu Qianshan said on the day he came to propose marriage. He bought out all the contacts between their family and An Nan for ten taels of silver, and told them not to disturb An Nan.
Maybe they remember that they were just lucky, deceived themselves, and were unwilling to think about it.
So An's mother, who chose to forget Lu Qianshan's warning, went to Lu Qianshan's home alone, looked around and looked at Lu Qianshan's home. She saw a row of bacon hanging under the eaves. She secretly scolded An Nan for being an unfamiliar ungrateful wolf. She ate delicious food and drink spicy food. She didn't remember my mother if she had good things!
