Chapitre 99: Walking the Calf

That morning, Xiao Zhengyang received the village chief's news that most villagers were willing to rent their land at the back mountain. However, they wanted to know how the rental would be calculated. A small portion didn't give a concrete answer. A handful of families straight-out refused. They'd rather let their land rot than rent it to Xiao Zhengyang's family.

Therefore, Xiao Zhengyang and Xiao Lingyu decided to go to the village chief's house to find out the details and come up with a plan.

Xiao Zhengyang handed a cigarette to the village chief and asked, "Village chief, what did the villagers say?"

The village chief took the cigarette and frowned slightly, "Zhengyang, Yu 'Er, most of the villagers are willing to rent. The land there is sandy. You can grow peanuts, sweet potatoes, and melons, but the plot is far from the village. If the rental is reasonable, you'll be saving them some trouble."
