Shen Yunfang directly used the money she had just borrowed to pay the 880,000 yuan, and then she officially leased the land, which would belong to her alone for the next seventy years.
After renting the land and the mountains, Shen Yunfang began to arrange to hire workers, as it was already May. If she acted quickly, she could still plant something this year. Profit was definitely not possible, but she hoped to cultivate as much land as possible and grow crops like soybeans that would enrich the soil. By autumn, if she could earn back the labor costs of the workers she hired, she would be satisfied.
