章 279: Meeting

When the meeting happened, the villagers already had an idea of what the agenda was.

The vast majority of the villagers were willing to rent the mountains to Xiao Lingyu. After all, the mountains had been left empty, and they didn't have the money to develop them. Other than cutting firewood, hunting, picking mushrooms and herbs, they couldn't gain much from the mountains. And these harvests depended heavily on luck.

If they were lucky, they could run across rare animals and plants, but not everyone had good fortune.

However, renting the mountains out was different. Even they knew simple math.

Six mountains equaled tens of thousands Mu. Even if the rent was just 150 RMB a year, the total rent for that year was more than 1.5 million. On average, each household would get several thousand RMB. And this was only for one year.
