Chapter 511: The human heart is not enough and the snake swallows the elephant.
Originally, it was not a big deal for Meng Xiaobao to pay some money to contract the land, and it didn't cost much.
But Meng Xiaobao also knew deeply.
If this starts, I'm afraid many villagers will have this idea. After all, they can get money quickly.
The village will then be divided.
"Village chief, do you pay attention to anything?"
Meng Xiaobao then told everyone his thoughts, and everyone began to think deeply after listening.
They also knew that what Meng Xiaobao said was right.
Once it gets started, some people may be tempted, and by then every family will be interested in it, and the original intention of this project will lose its meaning.
"Come and drink some water."
Shen Ruyu walked out with a teapot and saw Meng Xiaobao and the others looking sad.
"What's wrong? Did you encounter any trouble? Wasn't it nice to have a meeting before?"
Shen Ruyu couldn't help but ask.
Meng Xiaobao did not hide anything and immediately told what happened.
After hearing this, Shen Ruyu was not angry at all: "Xiaobao, after all, not all villagers have the same idea, everyone has it, so you don't have to think too much. In fact, I think these problems are not problems."
Meng Xiaobao was slightly startled: "Sister-in-law, do you have a solution?"
"Actually, it's very simple. Everyone wants to make a lot of money. The reason why they are making these demands now is simply because they don't trust this project now, or they don't have a complete understanding. As long as you can make them believe that they can really make money, Then I believe that if you don’t ask them, they will join on their own.”
"Ruyu, but I told him about this plan before, but he didn't listen at all."
"We have to use different methods for each type of person. They are lazy and don't know anything about planting, so they won't listen to your project at all, because their minds are not on it at all, and it's useless no matter how much you say."
"Sister-in-law, you have confused me. Please tell me quickly what method we should use to deal with people like Liu Laolai?" Meng Xiaobao asked directly.
"Lao Lai Liu is Lao Lai when he hears this name. For this kind of people, they actually have more interests in mind and want to trap the white wolf with nothing. But if you make him think that he can trap the white tiger with nothing, he definitely doesn't want to trap the white wolf with nothing. Already."
Shen Ruyu said with a smile.
Meng Xiaobao raised his eyebrows slightly and suddenly smiled: "Sister-in-law, I didn't expect you to be so smart? I understand what you mean."
"Village chief, I, I don't understand."
"Sister-in-law's meaning is very simple. Doesn't Laolai Liu want us to pay to rent his land? Then let him do it."
"ah?"
Several captains were surprised by you: "Village chief, didn't you say that this kind of opening can't be opened?"
"If I pay, of course it will arouse the thoughts of other villagers, but what if you pay, Laoba?"
"I, I pay?"
Lao Ba's head suddenly became confused and he couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Not only do you have to agree to him, but you have to agree to him happily, making him think that you are contracting his land because you want to make more money for yourself, and you also want him to sign the contract quickly. The more anxious you are, the more anxious he will be. He will be suspicious and feel that he may have lost money, and then he will naturally not think about renting it out anymore."
Meng Xiaobao looked at Lao Ba and said.
"You don't have to feel pressure, Lao Ba. We are doing this for his own good. If he still wants to contract it to us, there is nothing we can do. Even if I contract his land, you still have to tell him, If it is really contracted out, the money earned from this project will have nothing to do with him."
Meng Xiaobao said that he had done everything he could to be benevolent and righteous. If he only wanted to trick Bai Lang, then there was nothing he could do. Even if he regretted it, it would be useless, otherwise it would not be fair to others.
"Village Chief, I understand."
"The same goes for other people who have problems among you. If they insist on trying to get money out, then we can't do anything about it. There are also some families who have moved out. We need to keep a clear count and sign a rental contract to avoid confusion when the time comes."
Meng Xiaobao said.
Meng Xiaobao is not short of money for this ancestral land, but he feels that after renting it like this, the villagers will be poorer in the future.
But some people are born to be lazy, and there is nothing they can do about it.
"We understand."
"This matter must be implemented as soon as possible. In addition, we cannot let down other villagers who support this project."
"Yes, village chief."
"Okay, go back and implement it as soon as possible. Only after the matter is resolved can the project be officially launched."
Meng Xiaobao said.
This project is not small. If something goes wrong, even Meng Xiaobao himself would not be able to afford it.
Because a lot of the land was wasteland, and some of the land where vegetables and grains were grown, Meng Xiaobao also tried his best to preserve it so that the other party could directly exchange it for money.
The next day, Meng Xiaobao received a call from the captain of the eighth team.
"village head."
"Team 8, how are you handling things there?"
"Village Chief, I really have no choice. Laolai Liu knows that we want to use his land, so he insists on making us pay. This is just playing tricks on us. I said that I would contract it, but this guy is crazy about money.
, the contracting fee he raised was obviously much higher than what the state stipulated, and he also roped in his relatives and friends, so the problem seems to be even bigger now.”
Meng Xiaobao frowned immediately after hearing this.
He didn't expect Liu Laolai to be so black-hearted.
"How much does he want for the contract?"
"Ten thousand a year, and he said that the contract period must be thirty years, and the contract fee must be paid in one lump sum, otherwise he will not contract it out."
"Ten thousand a year, his land is useless at all. He is really a lion."
Meng Xiaobao's face turned a little livid.
"He also roped in several of his relatives and friends. Now there are five families in total. They also want to contract out the land like Liu Laolai, and the price will be the same."
Meng Xiaobao suddenly laughed.
"The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant."
To be honest, this project was not awarded based on the position of village chief, but was prepared by Meng Xiaobao with his own personal efforts. If it failed, Meng Xiaobao would bear all the pressure alone. However, these villagers not only did not appreciate it, but also wanted to take advantage of it.
Blackmail yourself.
Suddenly Meng Xiaobao felt that he was nosy too much. He was living a good life, so why did he have to be so tiring?
"Village chief, what should we do now? They said they want to talk to you personally."
"Oh, you want to talk to me personally?"
Meng Xiaobao couldn't help but smile, and then said: "Okay, then I'll wait for your eighth team to go. I want to see how much he wants to go to the empty-handed Taibai Wolf."
"Okay, village chief, I'm really sorry. Our village is the most troubled."
"It's not your fault. There are all kinds of birds in the forest."
Meng Xiaobao suppressed the flames in his body and said calmly that he also wanted to see how dark the Liu Laolai family was.
