Chapter 478 The Li family’s request
"No matter how rich your family is, they will definitely have this land for cultivation!"
Even the emperor's house also has an imperial mansion.
Xi Yao smiled awkwardly, feeling that he had asked a stupid question.
"I wonder how many you need?" she asked.
"The Li family has a lot of land and a lot of relatives in each family. We need to prepare about fifty acres of rice seedlings!"
This large amount immediately made Xi Yao nervous.
This will tire her to death.
She suddenly felt that the price was too low.
"Steward Li, this has to be used in paddy fields. If it's dry land, it won't work at all. Are you sure you want fifty acres?" she asked.
Butler Li said firmly: "I'm afraid it's more than fifty acres, but I'm afraid you don't have that many seedlings here!"
Everyone in the Zhou family at home was shocked.
Fifty acres, what is that concept?
They don't even dare to think about it.
Xi Yao quickly calculated the price in his mind...
Because of Xi Yao's silence, Butler Li thought that she was not sure, so he tried: "If you think there is a problem, you can reduce it appropriately..."
"Fifty acres will definitely not be completed!" Mrs. Chen spoke first.
"Yes, besides, we don't have that many seeds at home!" Zhu said.
Xi Yao calculated an account in his mind, and then said: "Steward Li, you also know that a family like ours will never have fifty acres of seeds, so if you come up with this kind of seeds, I can guarantee that I will give you fifty acres of seeds."
The rice seedlings for each acre will be prepared in batches, so that spring plowing will not be delayed, but the price must be discussed separately. After all, fifty acres is not a small amount, and it requires more manpower and material resources than we have to spend!"
Butler Li was surprised.
He thought that Xi Yao would be scared away, but unexpectedly, she calmly agreed.
"My master said that if you agree, I will give you another 20% in return!"
In fact, relatively speaking, the Li family will not make any profit if they plant for one season.
But the Li family is trying to grab time, so it's still okay.
Moreover, the Li family also has a grain business. Once it is done, the new grain meeting will be held early, and the business will naturally be easier.
Xi Yao calculated it and knew that this should be his bottom line. After all, food is different from other things.
But because the family had a large number of acres and the relative income was considerable, she immediately agreed.
There are seeds, all she needs is space.
Butler Li has discussed the details with Xi Yao, and after he returns home, the Li family will send someone to sign an agreement...
After the discussion was completed, Butler Li left.
As soon as they left, the Zhou family immediately surrounded Xi Yao.
"Ah Yao, how can you agree to it? Fifty acres, not five acres. How long will it take for us to get it?" Ms. Chen asked worriedly.
The rest of the people nodded in unison, feeling that Xi Yao had done something troublesome this time.
"Little sister, is it troublesome to raise seedlings?" Xi Yao asked Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said: "It's not troublesome, but fifty acres... Fourth sister-in-law, we are too busy!"
Xi Yao smiled, pinched her little face and said, "It's too busy, we can hire someone else!"
"Invite someone?" Everyone shouted in unison. Mrs. Chen reacted and immediately objected: "Ah Yao, didn't I tell you this method of raising seedlings? You can't teach it to others?"
She is not even allowed to know her daughter-in-law, so how can she let Xi Yao teach others.
The rest of the Zhou family also nodded in agreement, feeling that Xi Yao was putting the cart before the horse by doing this.
