Chapter 140: A Landlord

Chapter 140 He is also a man with land (second update)

Lu Lu left the cellar and went to take a look at Zhui Feng, who was tied up on the meadow.

Looking at the way it ran back and forth on the meadow, its energy was getting better and better. Unlike Chen Xiuqing, who stayed away from the side, Lu Lu liked it more and more.

Stepping forward to hold the horse's bridle, Lu Lu reached out and touched its face, and then stroked the long mane on its neck.

After being fed for so many days, Zhui Feng had somewhat adapted to it. Zhui Feng no longer bit or kicked as easily as before. He just kept shaking his head to avoid Lu Lu's touch.

Horse training is a process of making the horse surrender, but more importantly, it is a process of making the horse become accustomed to, recognize and become close to the owner.

Compared with blindly giving in, getting the horse's recognition and closeness will make such a horse appear more spiritual.

After saying hello to Zhui Feng, Lu Lu called Chen Xiuqing to go to Xiushan Tun.

The two walked out of the woods onto the road. Lu Lu pushed his bicycle and walked side by side with Chen Xiuqing, chatting.

Not long after walking, the sound of clanking horse bells came from behind. The two looked back and saw a man standing in the carriage, holding the reins and driving the horse to trot.

Lu Lu picked up cans, candies and shoes and handed them to the two little guys.

"How many acres of good land are you asking for?" Lu Lu was stunned.

"I just go into the mountains to collect some mountain products, pheasants, hares and some furs. After a while, the mushrooms come out and collect the mushrooms." The man smiled and said: "It's just a small business... You two walk slowly, I will

Let’s go to the village first.”

Lu Lu and Chen Xiuqing walked to the side of the road and moved out of the way.

Lu Lu rang the bicycle bell outside the hospital.

"Uncle Lu..."

As soon as they saw something delicious, the two little guys immediately forgot about the slingshots, picked up the things, and ran into the house happily.

"How should we deal with what happened yesterday?" Lu Lu sat down next to him and asked.

When I arrived at the village, I saw the people harvesting mountain products parked their carriages on the dirt road in the middle of the village and were going to ask questions at the mountain gate.

The two little guys happily ran over to open the door, clamoring for Lu Lu to teach him how to shoot the slingshot.

As he spoke, he jumped back on the carriage and drove it towards Xiushan Tun.

Chen Xiuqing nodded with some vague understanding.

Lu Luze pushed his bicycle straight to Zhang Shaofeng's house. When he got outside the fence of the yard, he saw Zhang Shaofeng chopping firewood in the yard.

"It's not a big deal. I'll give him injections for two days and then I'll be fine... As soon as he woke up, he opened his mouth and said it was the kang seller. I felt annoyed, so I left him 30 yuan and came back.

, too lazy to serve, let him do it by himself!"

Zhang Shaofeng laughed: "You don't know that as soon as you left yesterday, he knelt down in front of me and kept begging for mercy. They had another quarrel at night, but they quickly suppressed the sound.

He went down, and today he was busy going to the district at dawn to say hello to his son.

And his twin sons set up a piece of firewood in the corner of the yard, took aim with their slingshots, and kept arguing, opening their mouths and talking about what Uncle Lu had given them in the past few days.

If you get confused, no one can win.

He jumped off the carriage, took out a pack of cigarettes from his arms, and stepped forward to offer a cigarette: "Brothers, may I ask, is it Xiushan Tun if you go inward?"

"Let the old guy remove the position of the village chief, and then get you a few acres of good land."

Lu Lu laughed, it turned out to be much better than he expected.

"No, Xiushan Village is the innermost village in this area, there is no other way!"

The man driving the carriage came to the side, pulled the reins, and made the horse stop.

Chen Xiuqing shook his head, took a sip, and choked himself to the point of coughing several times, then asked: "You are not from this village, what do you do?"

"This is Xiushan Tun. Just three or four miles further on is..." Chen Xiuqing took the cigarette and pointed with a smile.

"Not to mention, they can really offer higher prices for the things purchased by state-owned stores. You have to know that the things purchased by state-owned stores are all purchased by a unified purchase, or they are for export, or they are entrusted by some manufacturers to purchase them.

Yes, there are probably only a few items, and there is a plan. Not all items are collected, and the prices vary from place to place.

Lu Lu looked at the cigarettes in his hand and recognized them as spring cigarettes. He had smoked these cigarettes when he was on the farm. They cost two cents a pack. On them were the great poets' poem "Wind and rain bring spring back, and flying snow welcomes spring." It was him

When I was an educated youth, I often smoked cigarettes, which were quite popular among the educated youth.

Lu Lu said nothing more and hurried to Xiushan Tun.

They are different. If you follow the right path, you can earn a lot just from the price difference."

"That's not true, but anyone who wants to live a peaceful life will not be like him... Just be fine." Zhang Shaofeng had almost the same idea.

"What about the state-owned stores?" Chen Xiuqing asked doubtfully: "Can they still charge higher prices than the state-owned stores?"

"Brother Lu, can you make money by collecting these things?" Chen Xiuqing asked curiously.

"This is the first time someone handed me a cigarette, so I was a little curious!" Chen Xiuqing laughed twice, threw most of the cigarette on the ground, and rubbed it out with her feet.

Zhang Shaofeng said it lightly and skillfully.

As soon as the crisp bell rang, Zhang Shaofeng, who was chopping firewood, and the twins who were concentrating on playing, both looked back.

Zhou Cuifen's land has not been finished planting yet, and Chen Xiuqing is busy going back to help.

Lu Lu looked at the cigarette he was holding: "If you don't know how to smoke, don't smoke. If you can, it's best not to smoke."

"Xu..."

Zhang Shaofeng also patted the wood chips stained on his body and came over: "Here we are, how are things going?"

"Why do people do this if they don't make money? Don't drive a carriage to the villages in the mountains. You can make a lot of money in a month." Lu Lu had done this before and knew the ropes.

The man smiled, put the cigarette back, then took out a lighter and lit it for Chen Xiuqing: "Is there a way to go to other villages from Xiushan Tun?"

But now... Lu Lu shook his head: "I don't know how to smoke!"

Lu Lu simply said: "The needs of different places are different, and there are many people. The things they want are not easy to obtain through formal channels. It is just entrusted to these people to collect them. The simplest ones are like mushrooms in the mountains.

, they are all good things, but outside of this wilderness, they are not easy to see in other places, so they are considered specialties."

Zhang Shaofeng shouted into the room: "Let Uncle Lu make some water for you." Then he asked Lu Lu to sit down on the wooden pier next to the firewood pile.

If he gets angry, I will bring his son back to farm. I told him that you are my brother, don’t worry, he will not dare to provoke you in the future."

Lu Lu pushed the bicycle into the yard, and Zhang Shaofeng took it and pushed it under the shed.

"No, it's about seven or eight acres. If you want people not to tell you, don't you have to pay some hush money?"

Not only did he put an end to Chen Weiguo's troubles with him, but he also got a few acres of land and solved his own landlessness problem.

Seven or eight acres of land is quite a lot. From now on, people in this mountain also have fields.

"What about you?" Lu Lu asked with a smile.

"I...I have a family rule: don't take a stitch from anyone!" Zhang Shaofeng said with a smile.
