Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 357 Want to Build a House

Lin Qingyan followed behind Liu Huizhen and the others, feeling a little embarrassed and ashamed as she listened to her mother showing off in various ways.

Why did she feel that the girl Liu Huizhen was talking about was so different from her? She quickly interrupted the two people who were still bragging and praising each other.

"Village Chief Zhao, haven't we arrived yet?"

Lin Qingyan felt that they had walked quite far and were already far away from the village. It would only take at least a dozen minutes to walk to the village.

"We're here. This is the land." Village Chief Zhao pointed to the field in front of him that was closest to the river bank.

Lin Qingyan and the others looked over and were instantly attracted by the field.

The field is surrounded by a U-shaped hill. The exit of the U-shape is a road leading to the city. There is a stream to the south of the road.

The other two sides of the field are surrounded by mountains, and only one side is a shorter mountain. Although this mountain is just a small mound compared to the mountain in Xishui Village before, it is truly called a mountain here.

Lin Qingyan was very surprised. She didn't expect that she would have such a good piece of land to cultivate. The land surrounded by mountains was about four or five acres.

There are still some areas near the mountainside that can be further developed, and she feels that another 2-3 acres can be developed.

Liu Huizhen and others were also surprised by this field. They thought it was just an ordinary piece of land, but now it seems that this field has much more room for operation.

After Gu Yizhou saw the surroundings clearly, he paid attention to Lin Qingyan's expression. He saw surprise on her face, light in her eyes, and even more, he saw that she was determined to win. Gu Yizhou understood in his heart.

This girl has taken a fancy to this piece of land.

"Village Chief Zhao, have you never planted this field before?"

Gu Yizhou helped Lin Qingyan to ask the questions she wanted to know.

"This was not a field before. It was full of trees and weeds." Village Chief Zhao pointed to the empty space in the middle.

"In the past, there were relatively few people in our village, and it was quite far from other villages. In the past few years, we couldn't even finish planting the fields in our village, so we didn't have time to reclaim the weed-covered wasteland here.

In the past two years, the authorities have been preparing to pilot the household contracting system. After paying the public grain tax, the rest of the land contracted belongs to them. Only then have people been willing to open up wasteland.

This field was weeded last year and hasn’t been planted yet.” Village Chief Zhao was a little regretful, as it took them a long time to sort out this field.

"Does this land still belong to Zhaojia Village now?"

"This land was not originally our village's. It was originally a wasteland. We only sorted it out last year and it has not been reported yet."

Village Chief Zhao was even more regretful when he heard this. They had originally wanted to plant crops on this wasteland for a few years and then report it as good farmland after a few years.

However, they didn't expect that someone had seen through it. Yesterday, someone came and marked out the land without telling them.

Lin Qingyan understood after hearing this. She was picking someone else's peaches. She looked at Gu Yizhou awkwardly. Gu Yizhou winked at her.

Seeing this, Liu Huizhen smiled and walked up to Village Chief Zhao and continued chatting with him. She pointed to a place near the mountain and walked towards it with Lin Qingxuan, Ye Yi and the others, leaving only Lin Qingyan and Gu Yizhou.

"I'll ask my grandfather about this piece of land when I get back. He just said he wanted a piece of land and let you grow what you want.

I didn't know this was the case. Don't feel any psychological burden. Grandpa should be able to make proper arrangements.

As for the villagers' initial work of clearing the wasteland, we can also find other ways to compensate the village in the future. Or give them some money as wages based on the approximate workload?"

After listening to Gu Yizhou's words, Lin Qingyan also nodded.

"Okay, wait until you ask Grandpa Gu, and I'll see how to handle it best."

After saying this, she looked at Liu Huizhen and others who had already walked in, and asked Gu Yizhou:

"Yizhou, you said we should build a few houses here, is that okay?"

"Build a house? What kind of house?"

"I want to grow some fruits and vegetables on this land. I might consider using a greenhouse for growing them. In this case, I will need someone to watch over them.

This place is still a little far from Zhaojia Village. I wonder if I can build a few houses here and hire someone to help look after it.

When the holidays come, we can come here and stay for a while to relax.

If possible, I would like to build a house and make it my home here.”

Lin Qingyan wanted to build more than just a few houses. If possible, she thought she could build more.

At least in the future, if these people get tired of living in the city or want to come and farm to change their mood, there will be rooms for them to stay.

After listening to what she said, Gu Yizhou thought deeply.

"I need to find my grandfather to confirm whether this piece of land is in an individual's name or a collective name. If it is in an individual's name, there will be no problem building a house. I just need to go through the procedures when the time comes."

"Would it be troublesome?"

Lin Qingyan felt that her question seemed a bit like the green tea Zhou Limei mentioned, but she really liked this piece of land.

If the land was allowed to be bought and sold, she would like to buy it and build a house she likes. She believes that Liu Huizhen, who is retired, and Lin Jianshe, who will retire in the future, may like this place more.

"As long as the vegetables and fruits you grow can impress Grandpa and his old friends, it's no trouble, it's a piece of cake."

Gu Yizhou said to Lin Qingyan meaningfully.

Lin Qingyan's eyes flickered.

"I understand. Let's plant the vegetables and fruit trees first in the next few days, and then consider other things."

"Don't worry about the other things, I'll take care of them. You just need to think carefully about what to plant."

"I know someone who has many varieties of fruit trees, all of which are very good. I contacted her these days.

Bring some fruit trees here and plant them first. As for the materials for the plastic greenhouse, I will contact Xishui Village. There is a fixed cooperative factory in Xishui Village. If the materials come from Xishui Village, the price will be cheaper. "

Lin Qingyan wanted to slowly reveal some information to Gu Yizhou. She had seen clearly in the past two days that Liu Huizhen was becoming more and more satisfied with Gu Yizhou, so if nothing unexpected happened, they would probably get married in the future.

After marriage, two people must live together. She suddenly left in the middle of the night and suddenly appeared again, which must be something that the person beside her could not hide.

If the two of them got married, no matter how covertly she did it, she would be discovered by the already perceptive Gu Yizhou. She couldn't reduce the number of times she went to the space, or even stop using it, just to get married, right?

Or wait until the time is right and slowly reveal some things to Gu Yizhou? The more Lin Qingyan thought about it, the more headache she had. She needed to think about it carefully and come up with a solution that would satisfy both parties.

Gu Yizhou saw that she was deep in thought and thought that she didn't have enough money.

"Is the money not enough? I still have some money here. It's the bonus I just got when I took over the job a few days ago."
