Universe Storage Box

Zhao Qu Village is a village in the outskirts of Jiang Prefecture, about 40 minutes away from the city. Huang Feng also found this place based on the map, although it had been in Jiang Prefecture for a few years. However, there were some places that he had never been to before.    

    

Huang Feng drove the car to the village while checking his surroundings. The air here was not bad, and besides some houses that he lived in, there were no extra buildings for sale. More importantly, Huang Feng didn't see many people here, and the houses that he lived in weren't very good either. The surrounding roads were also muddy roads, and there was not even a stone road. There were bumps and hollows everywhere. If it wasn't for the fact that Huang Feng's car had good performance... Driving here was really not a simple thing.    

    

"Sure enough, there are poor places everywhere." Huang Feng sighed as he drove. The urban area of Jiang Prefecture had developed very well. Even in the entire country, it was considered to be ranked in the upper echelons. However, its rural area was still in ruins. Although there had been a lot of policy help in the past two years... However... It wasn't something that could be changed overnight.    

    

Huang Feng saw an old man in his fifties squatting at the entrance of the village, smoking a cigarette. Perhaps because he saw Huang Feng's car coming over, he kept looking in the direction where Huang Feng had come from.    

    

Huang Feng drove the car to the man's side and stopped. He got out of the car and lowered a cigarette to lock onto the man. "Uncle, may I ask where the office of the village chief is?"    

    

The man took the cigarette from Huang Feng's hand and looked at it carefully. He said casually, "Is this young man a foreigner? Why are you looking for the chief?"    

    

"I am an outsider, but I have been developing in Jiang Prefecture. I want to talk to the village chief about contracting the farmland here." Huang Feng said.    

    

"You want to contract the farmland? How much? My family has 15 acres of land. Do you want it? The price is negotiable. " That person raised his head and looked at Huang Feng with some excitement.    

    

The man did not suspect that Huang Feng was here to cheat him, even though his family did not have much money. He could not afford a good car, but when he saw the car Huang Feng was looking at... He knew that Huang Feng was a rich man. He would not be full either. He purposely came here to lie to him.    

    

"Yes, but fifteen acres isn't enough. I want more." Huang Feng said. Since he had decided to do it, he would let it go. He definitely didn't want to have a small fight.    

    

"Alright, I'll bring you to the village chief now." The old man hastily said, he couldn't care less about smoking.    

    

After that, Huang Feng was led by the old man. They went to the village to look for a village. Through their conversation, Huang Feng found out the other party's name. His name was Zhao Caihua, and he was fifty-one years old this year. He had a son and a daughter. They were all working outside, and their eldest son was already at the age of marriage. However, because the family was poor, they did not have much money. Thus, this matter was delayed. The younger daughter had just graduated this year... However, because she had graduated from a college, her degree was not high. Therefore, she did not find a good job. Currently, she was working in Jiang Prefecture. He was usually quite busy, so he would only come back during the weekend.    

    

Zhao Caihua and his wife were at home cleaning up the land in the house. They were thinking of saving some money for their son and daughter to get married. However... Nowadays, things in the land could not earn much money. So... When he heard that Huang Feng wanted to contract the land, he would think of contracting the land out. Then, he would go to the nearby factory and see if he could find a security job or something. Of course, it was also not easy.    

    

Huang Feng could also feel Zhao Caihua's worry through the conversation. After all, no matter how old their children were, as parents, they would always worry about them.    

    

Soon, the two of them arrived at the office of the village chief. It was much simpler than what Huang Feng had expected. There were only a few desks, a sofa, and a water dispenser. It seemed that the situation in the village was not good.    

    

"Chief, I brought someone for you. He said he wanted to contract the land." Zhao Caihua shouted as soon as he entered the office.    

    

"Oh, he wants to contract the land?" A man who was about the same age as Zhao Caihua stood up and said. He looked at Huang Feng and said, "This is the boss?"    

    

"Hello, my name is Huang Feng. It is true that I want to contract land." Huang Feng said.    

    

"Hello, I am Zhao Jiangang, the village chief of Zhao Qu Village." The man said, "How much do you want to contract?"    

    

"I will contract as much as I can." Huang Feng said generously.    

    

"Really? Mr. Huang, let me make one thing clear. Our village has a lot of empty land. The young people in the village all went to work in the city. Only some old people were at home. There aren't many fields that can be taken care of, so there are a lot of empty land." Zhao Jian Gang said. Obviously, he was worried that Huang Feng didn't have that much money.    

    

"I know." Huang Feng nodded and said.    

    

"Alright, in that case, let's talk about the price." Zhao Jiangang welcomed Huang Feng as the contractor of the land. As he said, many young people had gone to work in the city. Many fields were empty, and they had nothing to do there. If they contracted the money, they could still make some money.    

    

"Okay." Huang Feng nodded.    

    

After that, Huang Feng discussed the price of the contract. In this regard, Huang Feng did not get too entangled with it. He was very generous. After all, it would not save much money in this province. Instead of earning money from these farmers, he might as well use the land here to plant some good food and go to the restaurants in the city to earn money.    

    

Therefore, Huang Feng very easily negotiated the price. The yearly contract fee for an acre of land was 400 yuan. This price, be it Zhao Jianggang or Zhao Caihua beside him, they were all very satisfied. In their minds, they would be able to accept a price of 300 yuan. The price that Huang Feng offered was obviously higher than the price in their hearts.    

    

"There are 500 acres of desolate land in the village. I can agree to contract these lands to you right now. The other lands have owners. So... I have to ask for their opinions. " Zhao Jiangang said, "But, Boss Huang, you don't have to worry. I believe most people are willing to contract out the land."    

    

"My land is fine." Zhao Caihua, who was standing at the side, quickly said.    

    

"Alright, I'll have to trouble Village Chief Zhao then." Huang Feng said, "Also, after I contracted these lands, I intend to plant some vegetables inside. So, I would like to ask the chief for help. If anyone is willing to help me farm, I will give them a salary. "    

    

It was obvious that Huang Feng would not allow these fields to be left empty. He wanted to use them to grow the ingredients that he had exchanged from the Storage Box shop. And this would definitely require someone to do the farming. Huang Feng would not exchange them for slaves just for the farming. After all, the price was too high. Hence, using the local farmers to do these things. It was obviously a good idea.
