Reborn as a landlord!I can

The sun hung high in the sky, emitting dazzling heat and light, splashing on the earth. Li Yilong returned to the hotel under the scorching sunshine at noon. He returned to the room and picked up the thermos bottle to pour water. He had not even taken a sip of hot water. The door was slammed open.

"How was it when you went out to inquire with your friends? Tell me quickly." Li Yichang walked at the front, and walked in with a bunch of people behind him. Then they each found a place to stand or sit, and they all looked at Li Yilong sincerely. , the small room was filled with people in an instant.

Li Yilong quickly poured two glasses of warm water down and took a breath before saying, "You guys should also wait for me to take a break. I just came back and haven't sat down yet."

"Sit down slowly and answer my question first. How is your investigation going? Is this county suitable for us to live?" Li Yichang interrupted him and asked urgently, "What procedures are needed to settle down? You can buy a house or land. Build a house?"

"That is, can we all be able to settle down if we are several households, or are there any requirements?" The eldest son of the Tang family also asked hurriedly.

Li Yilong sat at the table, tapped his fingers on the table, smiled, and said slowly: "I called my former comrade and asked him about the requirements for settling in this county, and if he couldn't settle in the county, what would happen in the surrounding countryside? As for the possibility of settling down, he couldn’t explain it clearly on the phone. He plans to take two hours off in the afternoon and come to the hotel to see me. We will meet and discuss it in detail then, and you guys will also listen together."

Li Yichang regretted, "Didn't you inquire clearly? Okay, we will be here in the afternoon, so we can ask your friend. About when did he..." The words were interrupted by the woman's sharp voice.

"Ah, can't you settle down in the county town? That means becoming a country person." The eldest daughter-in-law of the Tang family was dissatisfied. "We, good city dwellers, will end up turning into mud-legged people when we come to such a useless place with you." son…"

"Stop, sir." Mr. Tang angrily interrupted the eldest daughter-in-law's complaint, "It's just that there is a possibility that she won't be able to settle down in the county. I didn't say that she would definitely not be able to do it. Don't be short-sighted and unable to understand people."

Then he looked at the other two daughters-in-law and said sternly, "Why do you think I took you so far away? I thought I was looking for something to do. Let me tell you, this is to save your lives and your property."

He looked at his three sons with a serious face and said seriously, "Go back and tell them clearly. Don't do anything stupid to harm others or yourself."

Li Manping stood aside and watched the expressions of these daughters-in-law getting worse and worse. She couldn't help but shake her head in her heart. For such an old person, if you don't understand anything, don't speak. Isn't that looking for scolding?

"Yilong, don't mind, go on," Mr. Tang looked at Li Yilong again, waiting for him to continue.

Li Yilong breathed a sigh of relief. It would be nice to have someone who understands. Then he added: "I thought it would be fine, so I walked around the county alone. I found that the county was not very large due to the terrain. The total area of ​​the county was The population is only a few thousand people, and including the villages below, it probably doesn’t exceed 2 people, making it a very small city.”

Picking up the cup and refilling it, he said, "The urban area of ​​the county is less than one square kilometer. The houses are originally very compact and there is no extra land to build houses, so we are likely to settle in the towns and villages below. There are two towns in this county. There are two towns, Guangshan Town and Qishan Town. They divide Guangtian County almost equally, one in the east and one in the west. There are three villages below each. The large village has more than 1500 people, and the small village only has a population of 800."

"When the time comes, we need to think clearly whether we can choose to settle in rural areas or choose towns. It also depends on the wishes of the county magistrate."

"Okay, I guess the situation has been explained clearly by Yilong, so I'll go back to my room and think it over myself." Mr. Tang sat on the chair and said, "In fact, you can also ask people in the county to see if anyone has sold a house or an old house. . There are so many of us, but we can’t point at the fourth child alone.”

The others all agreed upon hearing this. They also had long mouths and could go find someone by themselves to find out why they had to wait here.

So two or three people formed a small team and planned to go out in the afternoon to walk around and chat with people.

Li Manping squeezed beside the door to watch the results of their discussion and prepared to go back to her room. She had been walking for a long time this morning. She was a little tired and her legs were very sore.

"Slowly, come to my room later. I have something to do with you." Li Yichang stopped her and said to Li Yilong, "Come here too."

Li Manping had no objection, just go. There was nothing to do anyway, so it was just a matter of passing the time.

Li Yichang took Li Yilong and Li Manping back to his room, walked straight to the square table and sat down, "I called you here because I want to discuss with you, where should we choose to settle?"

Li Manping was puzzled. She couldn't settle down in the county town, so she had no choice but to go to the countryside.

Li Yichang looked at her and smiled, "As Mr. Tang said, you can also buy a dilapidated house, demolish it and build a new one. This is a way to settle in the county."

Li Yilong looked up at his eldest brother, puzzled: "What do you mean, eldest brother... doesn't live in the county?"

Li Yichang shook his head and nodded, "My thoughts are actually similar to those in my hometown. People can't live without rice, flour, food, etc., so we must have our own fields to meet the needs of a large family like ours. In the county town, we can only rely on food. Buy it, what if the harvest is bad and the county can’t buy it.”

Li Yichang affirmed his idea, "For long-term planning, I think it is better to act on both sides. Those who find jobs will live in the county, and others will buy a few acres of land closer to the county and cultivate it themselves. It is convenient for both ends." "

Li Manping thought about it carefully and felt that this model was very good. There were people who worked to earn money and people who farmed to ensure food supply. There was no delay in both. This was very beneficial in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China. When collective production began in rural areas, they would move to the county town. Living there means you don’t have to do heavy manual labor.

Their family used to have long-term workers and tenants, and they only collected food and did not cultivate the land. Now they need their own family to work and cultivate the land. I think it will be very hard for everyone.

Li Yilong also thought about this and had no objection. He thought this was fine. He would first inquire about the surrounding land conditions, confirm his household registration, and then discuss land and work matters.

"That's it. I'll go talk to Mr. Tang later, and you can explain it to your father-in-law and ask him about his plans." Li Yichang was worried. They were just two old people, and they were not suitable to live alone. How about living with you, the fourth child?

Li Yilong thought for a second and agreed to the proposal, "No objection, I'll go back and ask Ayuan's grandfather."

After the meal, the two brothers also went out with their respective grandparents to chat and inquire about the news. Only Li Manping was left with nothing to do. Li Yilong caught him and went with him to check out various shops on the street. It seemed that he still wanted to open a business in the county town. a shop,

"Uncle, look at what the shop does. Do you want to buy a shop and do business?"

Li Yilong solemnly explained: “If we don’t live in urban areas, it means we have to stay in rural areas or suburbs to farm, and we cannot often come to the county. The news will be blocked and we will not be able to receive timely information and policies, which will put us in a trap. passive."

Li Manping felt that she took things for granted because she knew the big events that might happen in the future, so she slacked off in collecting information. This was wrong. She should change her mentality and not look at the present with a forward-looking mentality.
