Farming Space Makes Me Rich (3)

Chapter 565: Negotiation

Xiao Lingyu's decision to contract the Mali Slope Reservoir surprised everyone in the village.

Someone had contracted the reservoir for fish farming in the past. The person did it for three years and lost money every year. This happened not only to one boss but three bosses. In other words, whoever contracted the reservoir to raise fish would suffer a loss.

But there were also people who believed in Xiao Lingyu.

In the past, people had failed to raise strawberries, but she had made a fortune from them.

"Yu 'Er, are you really going to contract the reservoir to raise fish?" Father Xiao asked with a frown.

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, "Yes! I've thought about this for a long time."

"But Yu 'Er, many people have contracted that reservoir before, and they all suffered a loss," Father Xiao said.

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, "Dad, just because others have failed, it doesn't mean that I'll fail too."

Father Xiao suddenly thought of something. "You mean..." The spring water!

Xiao Lingyu nodded. "Don't worry, Dad. This won't fail." After saying this, Xiao Lingyu said to Father Xiao, "Dad, I need you to discuss with the village chief and see who is willing to raise chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs. As for the cows, I plan to raise them myself."

Father Xiao was dumbfounded when he heard this.

Father Xiao asked incredulously, "Yu 'Er, how... how do you plan to do this? You can't..." give the ranchers the spring water, right?

Xiao Lingyu said helplessly, "Dad, what are you thinking? Am I such a stupid person?" The spring water was her secret. How could she be so generous as to give it to others casually?

Xiao Lingyu said, "Dad, listen to me. I'm trying to form a circulation system.

"Think about it. We have planted so many vegetable fields. The only vegetables that can be sold are the fresh and tender ones.

"The old vegetables can be fed to the poultry. The manure from the poultry can be used to grow vegetables."

Father Xiao frowned, but he said with some doubt, "But will the manure still be effective? If they aren't..."

Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, "They will be effective." She had confirmation from Xiao Ling. Xiao Ling said that this world was too ordinary. The animals and people had poor physiques. It was difficult for them to absorb the Qi in the spring water completely. Therefore, Xiao Lingyu came up with this circulation system.

As for the fish farm, she would make the fish food herself. With such a large reservoir, it shouldn't be a problem to raise tens of thousands of fish.

Father Xiao said, "Alright. Dad will always support you."

Xiao Lingyu said, "Dad, once the reservoir is contracted, I need to hire a special person to look at the fish and feed them."

Father Xiao nodded and said, "That's no problem. I'll help you look for a candidate first."

...

The village chief came to the Xiao family and told Xiao Lingyu, "Lingyu, that reservoir doesn't only belong to Taoyuan Village. It is also part of Shangshui Village. I brought Village Chief Li from Shangshui Village with me today."

Xiao Taiyang pointed at village chief Li who was beside him.

"Village chief Li!" Xiao Lingyu greeted.

"Please come in!" Mother Xiao invited them. Father Xiao went to make tea.

After sitting down, Xiao Taiyang said directly, "Lingyu, village chief Li heard that you want to contract the reservoir. But, he wants to know the details of the contract."
