Chapter 161: Mu Fish Pond
Li Youcai discussed the specific details with Wang Jingui again.
After Li Youcai left, Wang Jingui was so excited that he could not stay any longer. He hurried out of the house, holding up his shoe heels, and went straight to the home of Accountant Zhao of the brigade.
He needs to discuss this matter with Accountant Zhao.
Li Youcai returned home and stayed with Duoduo to write for a while, then watched TV for a while before going to bed.
Early the next morning, Li Youcai had just finished washing up when Wang Jingui came to his house with Accountant Zhao.
Last night, the two of them spent half the night calculating and were excited. If this matter could be accomplished, it would not only benefit all the members of the Dongsheng Brigade, but it would also be a significant political achievement for the two of them. If they succeeded, they might even have the hope of being transferred to work in the commune in the future.
Therefore, Wang Jingui and Accountant Zhao cherish this opportunity very much.
Li Youcai had just finished washing up, and Chu Xinyan had just prepared breakfast.
"Secretary Wang, Accountant Zhao, why are you here?"
"Let's eat together." Li Youcai invited.
Wang Jingui smiled awkwardly. It wasn't very polite to come to someone's house at dinner time. If this were someone else's house, Wang Jingui wouldn't care about it, but this was Li Youcai's house, and Li Youcai's status was different now, so Wang Jinhui had to pay attention.
He waved his hand and said, "We've already eaten, you guys eat. It's just a few words, and we'll leave after that. It won't delay your work."
"Why be so polite? It's about the fish pond, right? Just tell me." Seeing that the two had no intention of sitting down at the table to eat, Li Youcai did not continue to invite them. He sat on the edge of the kang and said to Wang Jingui.
Wang Jingui first glanced at Accountant Zhao next to him, then hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Yesterday, Accountant Zhao and I had a good discussion about whether we could dig our fish pond a little bigger."
"Dig it bigger?"
Yesterday, Li Youcai and Wang Jingui planned to dig a two-acre fish pond.
Wang Jingui explained, "Well, we discussed it yesterday. Since we're going to dig, of course it's better to dig a bigger one. Look, there are about 300 households in our brigade. If the fish pond is too small, we'll naturally raise fewer fish, and when the time comes to distribute the money to each household, it will be less, which will make it difficult to mobilize everyone's enthusiasm."
"Yes, if we make it bigger, all these problems can be solved." Accountant Zhao echoed from the side.
"So how big do you think the digging should be?" asked Li Youcai.
The bigger the pond, the higher the cost. Not only will the cost of digging the fish pond increase, but the subsequent cost of releasing fish fry and feed, as well as the various costs of maintaining the fish pond will also increase.
Wang Jingui and Accountant Zhao looked at each other again.
"We are planning to dig a 10-acre fish pond. What do you think?" Wang Jingui asked cautiously and tentatively.
After all, Li Youcai was the one who paid the money. The originally agreed area was 5 mu, but now it has doubled. All subsequent capital investments will almost have to be doubled.
Although this money was paid in advance by him and would be returned to him after the fish were sold, it would take two years, so who could say for sure.
Li Youcai remained silent for a long time.
But this made Wang Jingui and Accountant Zhao very anxious.
"The brigade won't let you advance money for nothing. You want to contract the back mountain, right? The brigade can make the decision on this matter. The foot of the mountain is the boundary. The annual contract fee for the entire back mountain is 1500 yuan, and it's yours for 70 years. How about that?"
Wang Jingui couldn't bear it any longer and blurted out the backup plan he and Accountant Zhao had discussed.
In the eyes of Wang Jingui and Accountant Zhao, compared with the profits that can be created by the 10-acre fish pond, the barren land in the back mountain is naturally nothing. As long as Li Youcai agrees to pay, they will make a lot of money by contracting it to Li Youcai at a lower price.
Hearing this, Li Youcai was delighted.
However, his face did not show anything, he just said fiercely: "10 acres is 10 acres. I can advance the money, but the money from selling fish must be returned to me first. We have to sign an agreement."
"That's fine. We have to sign this agreement. You've done so much for everyone, and the team definitely won't let you down."
"Yes, yes, we have to sign the agreement!"
Seeing that Li Youcai finally nodded in agreement, Wang Jingui and Accountant Zhao were extremely excited.
That's a 10-acre fish pond. Once it's done, we can produce at least 4 to kilograms of fish every year. Based on the current price of carp at around cents, the annual income will definitely be over yuan.
Even after deducting the costs, there is still a net income of several thousand, which is simply too good to be true.
Adding the rent from the mountain and some other small income items, the Dongsheng Brigade will be able to earn over 10,000 yuan a year.
Just thinking about it makes Wang Jingui and Accountant Zhao so excited.
The deal was settled, and Wang Jingui and Accountant Zhao returned satisfied. Even when they walked to the brigade headquarters, they looked brisk and energetic.
They had to draft a contract for the back mountain and the relevant agreement for Li Youcai to advance funds to dig the fish pond.
"Are you really going to advance the money for the brigade to dig a fish pond?"
Although Chu Xinyan could not understand Li Youcai's behavior, she did not object. She felt that Li Youcai must have his reasons for doing so.
"Ah."
Li Youcai nodded and said, "Our family is rich now. Even if the people in the brigade don't say it, they probably hate me behind my back. If I continue to be stingy, sooner or later I will be targeted by someone."
"I'll dig a fish pond, and everyone will do the hard work. Every year, everyone will get a share of the money. Even if there are still some who don't appreciate my kindness, they will be a minority after all."
"Another point, I turn expired bread from the bakery into feed and count it as expenses. It's just right to feed the fish. In the end, I'm not losing out."
Chu Xinyan didn't expect that Li Youcai's plan was so meticulous.
He took into account the social customs and resource utilization, which was so smart that it surprised Chu Xinyan.
"I've noticed that since you started doing business, you've become smarter and smarter. You've been able to think of everything very carefully."
"As for your brain, the more you use it, the more active it becomes." Li Youcai smiled.
No one knew that Li Youcai had other intentions. What he wanted was the contracting rights for the back mountain. As long as he had the back mountain in his own hands, he would wait for a few years after the policy was opened up, and then he would find an exploration team and apply for a mining license.
Only then will you truly become rich.
Li Youcai did not go to work today. After having breakfast at home and taking a rest, he went to the brigade headquarters to find Wang Jingui and Accountant Zhao.
Contracts and agreements are easy to come by.
The terms are simply drafted, and once both parties sign and stamp them, they will officially take effect.
Li Youcai got the contract rights for the back mountain as he wished.
Wang Jingui and Accountant Zhao also got Li Youcai's signed documents as they wished, and advanced funds to the brigade to dig fish ponds and raise fish.
Excited, Wang Jingui shouted to the officer at the brigade headquarters, "Officer Wang! Hurry up and turn on the loudspeaker and have every household in the brigade send out a responsible person to gather in the drying yard for the meeting!"
"Just a reminder, if anyone doesn't come to this meeting, don't blame the team if you suffer any loss later!"
Upon hearing this, Secretary Wang quickly responded.
"okay."
Secretary Wang went to fiddle with the equipment and began to convey the news of the meeting according to Wang Jingui's request.
Wang Jingui and Accountant Zhao are both extremely beautiful.
"Hey, hey, everyone, pay attention! Everyone, pay attention!"
"Every household should send a person who is capable of making decisions to the drying yard immediately for a meeting. This meeting concerns everyone's vital interests. If anyone does not attend, the team will not be held responsible if they suffer losses later."
"I repeat, every household now..."
The loudspeakers in the brigade were buzzing, so that every household could hear it clearly.
If they were called for a meeting under normal circumstances, many people would really be too lazy to go, but this time it was clearly stated on the loudspeaker that it concerns the vital interests of each family, and those who do not come will not be taken care of afterwards.
So every household came with at least one person as required.
Everyone wants to see if something big is happening.
Li Youcai followed Wang Jingui and Accountant Zhao to the drying yard and waited in advance.
