"So, now is the time to back out if you have hesitation about the contract!" Xiao Lingyu explained with a serious expression, "Once the contract is signed, the rights to land will be mine for the next ten years. After you sign the contract, you'll need to pay me ten times the amount if you want the land back."
Many people were shocked after they heard Xiao Lingyu's proclamation.
They thought the land rental was going to be like how it usually was in the village. Everything was verbal and non-official. I would rent you my land today, but tomorrow I could take it back if I wanted to.
However, Xiao Lingyu was clearly dealing with something completely different. Once the contract was signed, their land would belong to Xiao Lingyu. If they wanted the land back, they had to compensate her ten times the price. It was unbelievable. They had to pay to use their own land? They had never heard of anything like that before!
