Chapter 244： Most chose to sign the contract

Chapter 244 Most chose to sign the contract

Wei Ruo didn’t say anything about the output of late rice seeds. Now that I tell these villagers, they may not believe them. They will just take it as her excuse to promote her own late rice seeds.

Hearing what Wei Ruo said, several people immediately fell silent.

Because this solution is more feasible for them, it does not require them to pay immediately, and it can solve their immediate problems.

It is also a good deal to exchange five catties of rice in the future for one catty of rice seeds in the present.

Several people were hesitating, and more villagers who heard the news rushed over from behind.

Xiumei explained the sales rules of late rice seed to the newly arrived villagers, and then heard someone calling for a signature.

Someone opened his mouth, and those who were still hesitating immediately followed suit: "I want to sign, I want to sign."

Everyone began to scramble to ask for signatures, for fear that the rice seeds would be snatched up by others, and they would lose their share.

Everyone knows that many farmers have been affected this time, and they don't know if Mr. Xu has enough rice seeds. It's better to arrive early and get the rice seeds in your hands as soon as possible.

Wei Ruo asked everyone not to worry, line up, and wait for the Master Registrar to arrive, then they can start signing.

The villages that were hit by the disaster recently are all located near the capital city of Taizhou, and belong to Xianlin County in terms of administrative division. Therefore, Wei Ruo invited the head of Xianlin County to be a notary.

Hearing that Wei Ruo provided late rice seeds for the common people, the people of the Xianlin county government were very active and agreed to Wei Ruo's request without hesitation.

Because of the problem caused by the bakanae disease, the county government is plagued by it. From the county magistrate to the head book, everyone is worried about it, fearing that it will affect their political achievements and be held accountable by the magistrate.

Although Wei Ruo's move is a business, it is also a real solution to help Xianlin County solve the problem.

After the master book arrived, not only Wei Ruo had an extra layer of security, but the villagers also felt more at ease. With people from the government testifying, they are not afraid that Xu Heyou will deceive them.

After the sale started, it lasted until dusk.

Most of the villagers chose to sign a document to return five times the amount of rice when the autumn harvest came. Only a small number of villagers paid on the spot.

Wei Ruo sold out all the rice seeds in a warehouse prepared by Wei Ruo, in exchange for a contract for a box.

Master Wu of Xianlin County was very happy and said to Wei Ruo: "Young Master Xu is really a kind person with the common people in mind."

"Master Wu is overrated, I'm just a businessman." Wei Ruo replied.

"No and no. If you are really a businessman, Mr. Xu can just sell money, and there will be no second method. After all, this second method is much more troublesome than the first one." Master Wu commented.

Wei Ruo smiled. She did not deny this, but at the same time, she also knew that if the second option was not provided, many villagers would be forced to give up buying due to concerns or objective conditions.

This is beneficial to her personally, to the farmers suffering from bakanae disease, and even to the agriculture of Taizhou Prefecture.

Two days later, Agui arrived at the gate of Wei Ruo's village with an ox cart full of sweet potato vines.

The sweet potato vines used for cuttings this year are mainly planted in Xiaoyang Mountain. After the vines grow well, Agui is responsible for transporting them.

While the workers in Zhuangzi were unloading, Agui and Wei Ruo reported the situation on Xiaoyang Mountain.

"Miss, this year's vines are growing very well, enough care! Xiaoyang Mountain is almost planted, and there are still a few acres of vines that have not been harvested." Agui reported to Wei Ruohui.

"I may have to trouble you to make another trip in two days, and send me three carts of ready-made vines." Wei Ruo said.

"Miss told me whether it's troublesome or not, this is what I should do!" Agui said happily.

Without the support of the young lady, he and Xiao Ba are just ordinary long-term workers in the Wei family's village in Xingshan County.

With Miss' support, he and Xiao Ba resigned from their jobs in the Zhuangzi over there when Xiaowei's residence was moved to Fucheng, and went to work on Xiaoyang Mountain purchased by Miss. Help Wei Ruo do things.

Now not only can I get more wages every month, but my life is also more promising.

"Is Xiaoyang Mountain doing well recently?" Wei Ruo asked.

"Miss, don't worry, everything on Xiaoyang Mountain is fine, and everything is done according to the lady's instructions. Now sweet potatoes have been planted mainly, and some other vegetables have been planted in some fields at the foot of the mountain. The current growth is quite good. Everyone works very hard and is very confident in this year's harvest." Agui explained.

"Very good. By the way, what's the situation in the south of the city?" Wei Ruo asked.

Wei Ruo is no longer in charge of the southern part of the city, but it was developed from a barren land under Wei Ruo's advocacy. Wei Ruo still hopes that the people there can live well.

"The wheat in the south of the city is growing very well, and everyone is looking forward to it, seeing that it will soon reach maturity." Agui replied.

"Are the pioneers over there doing well recently? Can they still eat?" Wei Ruo asked.

Wheat still takes some time to mature, and most of the people who went to the south of the city to open up wasteland have no family background, so I don’t know if they can survive.

"Miss, don't worry, they are still able to eat at the moment. Mr. Qian made the decision and asked them to give part of the wheat harvest in the field to the county government. The county government predicted part of their money and let them have money to buy food. You can still live." Agui replied.

"That's good." In this way, Wei Ruo can feel relieved.

"The folks in the south of the city miss you very much, Miss. I have been to the south of the city several times and they always ask me when I can see you again." Agui said.

Wei Ruo nodded with a smile. As for when he will go back to Xingshan County, Wei Ruo himself does not know.

After getting the sweet potato vines, Wei Ruo asked people to transport the sweet potato vines to the sandy land she bought, and handed them over to the villagers who contracted the stone village here to start farming.

The villagers moved very quickly. In the past few days, the wild grass and rocks on the sandy ground have been cleared in sevens and eighties. Now that the vines have arrived, they can just start the work of cuttings and planting.

Wei Ruo is very satisfied with the work of the villagers in Stone Village. According to their attitude, Wei Ruo doesn't need to worry too much about the follow-up progress of this sandy land.

Wei Ruo also brought dried sweet potatoes, and Xiumei shared some with everyone.

Villagers who tasted dried sweet potatoes all said that it was delicious. Farmers usually have no chance to eat sweets. Such sweet potatoes are sweet and sticky, which is a delicacy they rarely tasted.

"If it is delicious, plant it well. After the sweet potato is grown, I will teach you how to make such a dried sweet potato, which is easy to store and not easy to mold." Wei Ruo said to everyone.

Hearing this, everyone became more motivated, as if they could already see the grand scene of sweet and glutinous sweet potatoes growing in the ground.
