The Big Landlord

With the development of reform and opening up, the economy continues to take off, and the 10,000-yuan household has gradually become obsolete. It is not difficult for a villager to spend thousands of yuan. You just need to work together, sell the excess food, and find relatives and friends. By borrowing, you can still raise tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of money to buy aloe vera seedlings.

Because of this, Ye Zirong's frying of seedlings was promoted smoothly. This incident of frying seedlings spread like a virus, like a snowball, more and more people joined, and more and more fields planted aloe vera seedlings one after another Among them, Xiushuiwan, which was the first to plant aloe vera in batches, is the most active.

Seeing the frowning faces of the villagers running around to raise money, the excitement when they bought the aloe vera seedlings, and the anticipation after planting the aloe vera, Wang Ben felt like he was on pins and needles, and he wanted to do everything possible to stop it. He didn't want to watch a possible tragedy happen.

Visited the Agricultural Bureau and the Public Security Bureau, submitted manuscripts to major newspapers, magazines, and periodicals such as Farmers Digest and Yongfeng Daily, and even found the Agricultural TV Station. Since he could not change the situation by himself, he would rely on the power of professional organizations and the media to support him. The majority of villagers launched an appeal.

Although the aloe vera seedling incident happened not long ago, it is developing very fast. It is impossible for these organizations not to know about it. However, their attitude disappointed Wang En. The aloe vera industry is currently a highly recommended development project, and they are not willing to stop farmers Planting, even optimistically stated that in the next few years, aloe-related industries will achieve a great leap forward.

Manuscripts were returned one by one, petitions were rejected one after another, interviews were rejected one after another, and there was no way to ask for heaven or land. This vigorous aloe vera planting craze could no longer be stopped.

Although there were some people who supported his ideas during the process, but relying on this little strength alone, it was not possible to stir up any storms.

To his relief, the Public Security Bureau listened to his explanation of the crisis, and after investigation, they expressed that they would pay close attention to Ye Zirong's actions and strictly forbid any fraudulent behavior.

The Agricultural Bureau also gave a very positive answer. They said that the aloe industry in China is far from reaching the output required by the market, so there is no need to worry about market saturation. At the same time, they will also accelerate the development of the aloe industry chain to ensure that the industry Supply and demand balance.

I hope it is unfounded worrying, Wang Ben, who is powerless, can only comfort himself in this way, the matter has come to this point, he has to accept the fact that the aloe vera seedlings are fried.

Walking in the rural fields of Xiushuiwan, I met Li Sanye head-on. This villager who once promised to help build roads has now given up the toll on the machine-cultivated road and planted aloe vera.

"Where is Mr. Li going?" Wang Ben greeted with a smile.

"Over there," Li Sanye raised his hand and pointed casually. He managed to squeeze out a smile on his expressionless face. After answering simply, he immediately returned to his original color, turned his head and left quickly.

"Hehe," Wang Ben laughed helplessly at himself and sighed.

In the distance, a villager is pushing several bags of chemical fertilizers in a wheelbarrow, and is preparing to apply base fertilizer to the field where aloe vera will be planted. On the narrow field ridge, the wheelbarrow is not easy to navigate, and it seems to be a bit strenuous.

Running over quickly, Wang Ben stretched out his helping hand and said enthusiastically, "Let me help you,"

"No need!" The villagers responded coldly, pushing forward with difficulty.

There was a sudden thump in his heart, his outstretched hand paused in the air unnaturally for a while, and unconsciously rubbed it a few times, the smile on Wang Ben's face instantly froze and became extremely heavy.

Because of this aloe planting incident, in order to help everyone avoid possible crises,

Trying everything possible, in the end not only did not help everyone, but was mistaken for deliberately obstructing everyone from getting rich, and the originally happy and harmonious relationship with the villagers has since dropped to freezing point.

Biting her lip, she lowered her head and wandered aimlessly, unknowingly, she came to Grandma Zhen's house.

Seeing this old lady whom he had liked since he was a child, Wang Ben suddenly couldn't control himself and felt his nose sore.

"Grandma Zhen, did I do something wrong?"

"Son, it's not whoever says it's right or wrong, it's just that everyone has a different position."

"But, I feel bad!"

"Don't take it too seriously, there are some things, just take time to look at them."

Yes, let time bear witness, maybe, he was really wrong, maybe, the aloe vera industry will continue to flourish as before, so it's no big deal for him to suffer this little grievance.

Or maybe, he is still wrong, the mistake is that he should not have brought aloe back all the way in pursuit of personal fortune, and became the initiator of mass planting of aloe in Yongfeng City, so that Ye Zirong would not find the business opportunities of aloe seedlings, There will be no such stir-fry turmoil.

He shouldn't have given Ye Zirong 20,000 seedlings for free. Although even if he didn't give it away, Ye Zirong could still find opportunities to hype it up, but no matter what, he also contributed to the stir-up of the seedlings.

He shouldn't have recklessly persuaded the villagers to plant together without thinking carefully. If he can endure for a while, even if the villagers will be affected by the stir-fried seedlings, at least it won't cause every family to plant. Some families will give up because of concerns.

Continuing to wander in the fields, looking at the newly planted aloe vera seedlings in the acre of fertile fields in Xiushui Bay, and the villagers who are planting in full swing, Wang Ben suddenly felt unaccustomed.

It has been almost two years since he returned to Xiushuiwan. Except for buying a homestead, building a house, and the 16 million number in his passbook, he has nothing, as if everything has returned to the original point.

From now on, he will no longer have land to plant.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, with money and a house, it is rare to be so leisurely, without thinking about anything, but living in this strong rural atmosphere, he always feels empty.

Unknowingly wandering to the entrance of the village, Wu Yulan still guards her small shop. She doesn't farm the land, so naturally she doesn't participate in the aloe planting.

"Book, I still have more than an acre of land. My father-in-law and mother-in-law are planting it. If you want to plant it, I will bring it back to you." Wu Yulan was not joking, and her words and expressions were very serious, revealing a trace of tenderness.

"No," Wang Ben smiled faintly, and said very sincerely, "Thank you, Sister Wu."

It turned out that apart from flirting, Wu Yulan was quite understanding.

What can you do with just over an acre of land? Even if you can do anything, Wang Ben is really not in the mood to take care of it now.

In this way, he wandered aimlessly in the village for a long time until it was almost dark before returning home slowly.

Leaning quietly on the sofa, I don't want to do anything, I don't even want to move.

"Brother Benzi, it's time to eat."

Linglong laughed as always, and dragged Wang Ben to the restaurant. There was only one dish on the table, which was shredded potatoes, no, it should be potato chips. This was her first time cooking, and the first time she cooked a complete meal .

After more than half a year of study, this girl seems to be a lot more sensible, Wang Ben is very pleased.

Putting some vegetables in Wang Ben's bowl, Linglong showed her signature smile, squinted her eyes and said, "Brother Benzi, don't be unhappy, you still have Linglong."

Yes, at least, with this little girl by my side, there is nothing to worry about.

Smiling knowingly, stretched out his hands, and called softly: "Come here, let brother hug you!"

"Okay!" Linglong ran over, jumped onto her lap, and smacked Wang Ben's face with her small mouth.

"Oh, my mouth is full of oil again!"

"Hee hee! Linglong did it on purpose."
