I'm wearing it, but I'm still suffering.

Chapter 211 Learn about Luoya Village from Wang Feng

Liu Yingxiong saw that they had already made their plans, but he didn't seem to have any reaction yet.

I wanted to ask Liu Yingcai what gift he should give me, but Liu Yingcai said he didn't want to give me anything.

"You can come with me later. You don't have to carry things by yourself."

Liu Yingxiong always felt that this was not right, so he added another four kilograms of wheat to make it ten kilograms. Only then did Liu Yingxiong no longer mention the idea of ​​carrying more things.

It was not appropriate to take Liu Xiaoxiao with him on such a mission. However, Zhufu could go along, so the three people who went to the village chief's house became Liu Yingcai, Liu Yingxiong, and Zhufu.

The drought in northern China was severe, and Luoya Village was also experiencing a mild drought. Although Wang Feng's family wasn't yet short of food, he was naturally happy to see someone offering him food and invited them in.

After that, the few of them greeted each other politely, and then Liu Yingcai began to ask Wang Feng about the current situation of their village in the form of chatting about family matters.

The most direct question was from Liu Yingcai: "Brother, we are new here and don't know much about this place, so I would like to ask, is this place also dependent on farming for survival?"

Wang Feng replied, "I guess so! The main reason is that although we are very close to the sea, with the sea right behind us, finding valuable seafood from the sea still depends on luck. Therefore, most of the villagers in our village mainly rely on farming."

Liu Yingcai: "But from what I saw during the day, this place is mostly surrounded by mountains. Doesn't that mean there's very little land for farming?"

Wang Feng: "Well, not a lot, so we farm and make a living by collecting seafood."

Liu Yingcai: "If we choose to stay and settle here, how will the land be allocated?"

Wang Feng's answer to this question was less forthcoming. He hesitated for a moment before replying, "I'm not happy with you, brothers. To be honest, if you really want to stay, there might not be much land to distribute. But I can organize the villagers in our village to open up two acres of wasteland for each of your households. As for the rest, you'll have to come up with it yourself."

"Also, although our village's grain harvest isn't very good, we won't starve to death. With the sea behind us, we won't have to flee famine."

Seeing him speak so directly, Liu Yingcai stopped being reserved and asked, "If that's the case, then how come your village doesn't have a large population? I even heard you say that some families have moved away?"

When Wang Feng lent them his house for temporary residence, he had already thought that they might ask this question.

So he also said what he had prepared long ago.

"You mean those families? Some of them became officials in other places and took their families with them. Some of them made fortunes in business and naturally didn't want to leave their loved ones to suffer here. There were also two families whose loved ones were all gone, and the villagers who had made fortunes in business had helped them before. So, with no ties at home, they followed those prosperous businessmen out to explore the world."

Liu Yingcai nodded in understanding, a gratified smile on his face, and said admiringly: "When you are rich, don't forget your roots; when you are poor, don't forget your gratitude. Not bad! Village chief, the people in your village are really kind-hearted and noble in character. This kind of atmosphere and spirit is really rare, and it is worthy of us all to learn and inherit. I believe that as long as you maintain such qualities, no matter what difficulties and challenges you encounter, you will be able to overcome them and achieve better development." His words were full of admiration and praise for the villagers, and he also expressed his expectations and blessings for their future.

Wang Feng just nodded with a smile, saying, "I hope so!"
