Chapter 611 – Plan
When Xiao Lingyu arrived at the village chief’s house, he heard someone say loudly, “That place clearly belongs to me. I even planted two trees there as a symbol.”
“Those two trees were planted by the battalion when they stopped at our village. When did they become yours? Let me tell you. My family’s land is past those two trees.”
They were quarreling non-stop.
“Shut up!” The village chief said very calmly and with a dignified tone, “Enough! It’s not up to you to decide whose land this is. Take out your family’s land certificate and measure the land. What’s the point of fighting?”
The village chief’s words were not wrong. The villagers quieted down. Their lands were connected. Once they took out their land certificate and did the measurements, everything would be clear. This was nothing to argue about.
However, the problem was that the two families had lost their land certificates. They wanted to renew the certificates, and both families wanted more land. It led to this dispute.
“You have lost your land certificates, but the records are still in the files of the village committee. None of you can get any more land for yourselves,” the village chief said sharply.
The faces of the two families turned red, and they were a little embarrassed.
“This… this… I clearly remember that I have 5.6 Fen of land.” One of them mumbled embarrassedly, “But now, it’s only 5.4 Fen.”
“It doesn’t matter how you remember it.” the village chief said seriously, “We talk with evidence. Or else what kind of rules will we have in the village?”
The others also echoed, “That’s indeed the case.”
…
When Xiao Lingyu and mother Xiao rushed over, they heard such discussions.
Mother Xiao, “…”
Xiao Lingyu, “…”
This was nothing serious.
Xiao Liang’s anxious words gave them a fright.
The mother and daughter’s arrival quickly caught the villagers’ attention.
Someone immediately asked, “Lingyu, the land has been measured. When can we get the money?” This was the question that most people were concerned about.
“Yeah. When can we get the money?” Another person asked.
Some of them had calculated before. This time, they would get more than the mountain rental. They could do many things with the money.
As for the share investments, most villagers were not interested. They weren’t sure if Xiao Lingyu would succeed or not. If she failed, they would have lost out a lot. Therefore, they felt safer having the money in their hands. If Xiao Lingyu failed, they at least still had the money.
Most villagers made this choice because they were too short-sighted. They could only see the immediate benefits and not the long-term benefits.
“Lingyu, we don’t want money. We just want to use this money to buy shares!” Someone heard the analysis of Xiao Lingyu, the village chief, and the others and felt that buying shares were a very feasible thing.
If this project failed, they would not suffer much loss.
But if it succeeded, it would be a good thing for their future generations.
“Lingyu, how many shares can I get with my family’s land?”
“Lingyu, can I use only a portion of my rent to invest?”
Without waiting for Xiao Lingyu’s response, everyone started asking questions.
Xiao Lingyu waved her hand and said, “Uncles, Aunties, don’t be anxious. This matter will be taken care of in the next few days. This takes time. I hope everyone will be patient.”
“Of course!” Everyone nodded. Xiao Lingyu was basically giving them money.
Xiao Lingyu rented the lands, but no one needed to move. The land would still be theirs. They could do anything they wanted. They would still farm, but they needed to farm certain specific crops. After all, if this was going to be a tourist destination, aesthetics were important. But the crops would belong to the farmers themselves. Who wouldn’t be happy about this?
Xiao Lingyu reminded them again, “Also, I hope everyone can use these days to think carefully. Do you want to take the money directly or use it to invest in shares? Village chief, I’ll have to trouble you to make the calculation.”
The village chief laughed and said, “It’s no trouble. This is my job. Alright. There’s no need to stand here anymore. Go home and think about it carefully. Do you want to take the money or invest in the shares?”
The village chief also kindly reminded them, “Actually, I’m suggesting that we all invest in the shares. If we invest in the shares, we can wait to receive dividends every year to benefit our future generations.

“You can take the money now to buy a house, marry a wife, and so on. You might even have leftovers to buy a car.
“But what about in a few years? Will you still have a lot of money?
“A few years ago, we could only get a few RMB a day, but now we get 30 RMB a day.
“However, this is not an increase. 30 RMB now is not worth more than a few RMB back then. Back then, pork cost only 1.50 RMB a catty, but now it’s 5 RMB per catty. Everything has increased in price. But the money is still the same.
“Three years ago, 10,000 was more than enough to build a house and marry a wife. But now, you can’t do the same with 10,000. Lingyu, what… is this called again?”
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “This is the devaluation of the currency!”
“Devaluation of the currency?” The villagers were confused.
Xiao Lingyu explained, “It means that you’ll have the same money, but the price of goods is constantly increasing. Of course, this is only the normal growth and devaluation of the economic conditions.
“Just like what the village chief said, three years ago, for 10,000 RMB, you could marry a wife and build a house. After three years, for 10,000, you could only build half a house or marry a wife. Three years later, you won’t even be able to build half a house with 10,000.”
The village chief said, “The investment is more worth it. We are using money to generate money. If you keep the money, it’ll only depreciate in value!”
The villagers were silent. They understood this, but they were worried that Xiao Lingyu would fail. If that happened, all their money would be gone.
“Alright, everyone, go back and think about it carefully. Three days later, come to my place, and we’ll do the statistics!” The village chief said.
After everyone returned, the village chief said to Xiao Lingyu, “Lingyu, is there any problem with this project? I heard that…” he had also heard that this proposal faced some problems with the city council.
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Village chief, don’t worry. Everything has been resolved.”
The village chief immediately said excitedly, “Good, that’s good. That’s great!”
Taoyuan Village was not an official tourist yet, but there were already a few visitors because of the mountains of flowers. However, Xiao Lingyu did charge a small entrance fee for those who wanted to go up the mountains. After all, these people would inadvertently trample some stuff. Xiao Lingyu wouldn’t suffer the loss for anything.
…
Ten days later, Xiao Lingyu received the news that the project had been approved. County leader Qian, the officials, and other friends all came to congratulate her. They also expressed great confidence in the project and would lend any help if needed.
Xiao Lingyu expressed her gratitude.
At the same time, the 30 jars of health wine that were sent to City Z became really popular.
Mother Li was very vain. After she promised others, she forced Li Xuefeng to ask for more health wine.
Li Xuefeng directly ordered 20 jars from Xiao Lingyu. Of them, 12 jars were given by Mother Li to her friends and relatives. He kept the remaining eight jars for his family.
However, after Mother Li’s friends and families drank the wine, they were shocked by its effect. In the past, they envied Mother Li for suddenly being young and energetic. Now, after drinking the wine, they also felt the same. They felt that they were getting younger!
Therefore, after knowing that Mother Li still had some jars of wine at her home, they wanted to get them from her.
Mother Li was very protective of the remaining jars. She didn’t dare to give them away anymore. Otherwise, she would be scolded to death by her husband and son.
Then, someone wanted to find out the source of the health wine from Mother Li.
However, mother Li didn’t know either.
Mother Li also wanted to get the source of the health wine from her son. However, she didn’t expect that her son, who had always been obedient to her, would refuse to tell her. She was so angry that she couldn’t eat for several days.
Mother Li said, “Son, where did you get this health wine from?”
Li Xuefeng said impatiently, “Mom, I’ve told you. They’re from a normal friend.”
Mother Li’s face darkened, and said with dissatisfaction, “Son, is there something strange about the source of this wine? Why can’t you tell me?”
Li Xuefeng asked sharply, “Mom, so what if I tell you? Are you going to buy them in bulk and give them away again?”
Mother Li said with an embarrassed expression, “Why not? Didn’t you say that these wines aren’t expensive at all? It’s only 200 RMB per jar. If we buy them and give them to our relatives and friends, then we’ll earn face and favor. It’s killing two birds with one stone. Isn’t that great, son?”
Li Xuefeng,”…”
His mother had become younger, but her brain was getting duller.
